But slight variation occurred in the respective positions of the competitors until after pass ing the half-mile post, when Musician took a lead of about a length and a half of Pinchbeck, next to whom lay Rodan and Vandervelde.

Clashing with the Chelmsford Meeting seriously affected the Chertsey gathering, the greater proportion of the Lon don division patronising the Essex reunion. The weather was unpropitious, the air being bitterly cold throughout the day, accompanied by slight showers. The rang was moderately patronised, however, many aristocratic sup: porters of steeplechasing being present, but the attendanc e of the general public was very meagre. The sport requires no comment here, every particular being contained in the subjoined return : The Woburn Park Plate (Handicap) of 50 sovs ; winners of 100 sous after March 2 (at ten a.m.) 101 b, any other winner 71b extra ; abort two miles and a quarter.

The favou rite made play till within two fences of home, where King lake, last up to this point, closed with ;him ; an exciting race, commencing after the last fence had been cleared, the Duke of Hamilton's horse, finishing with a rush, winning cleverly by a neck. Two lengths separated the second and third. Rid Rose was last. The winner was bought in for 150 guineas.

Betting— Even ou Sinite, 3 to 1 agst Mrs. Naggleton, 2 to 1 each agst Harold, Cockfighter, and Robin Adair, and 6 to 1 agst Sports man. Immediately after starting Cockfighter rushed to the front, followed by Sinite and Harold, Mrs. Naggleton being last off, but when fairly settled in their stride the favourite took up the running, and led past the stand the first time, Cockfighter being second, and the others well up. After clearing the water-jump Page took a pull at Sinite, Harold going on with the lead, but opposite the stand he and Cockfighter alternately led, Harold however taking a clear lead as they.approached the Ferry water jump. On passing the stand the second time Mrs. Nag gleton, followed by Sportsman, rushed to the front, Cock fighter and Robin Adair going on next, side by side, several lengths in advance of Sinite and Harold. Nothing worthy of mention occurred until the competitors were op posite the stand, when Sinite rushed through his horses and took second place ; but at the next fence she came to grief, barely rising at the obstacle. Sportsman was now loft with a clear lead, followed by the others in Indian file, but Cockfighter refusing, and Mrs. Naggleton falling at the Ferry jump, the issue was left to Sportsman and Mr. Yates's pair. In the Plough Robin Adair, who was lying second, tired to nothing, his stable companion being now left in attendance on Sportsman, but never being able to reach him, Mr. Yates's " second string" sustained defeat by two lengths ; all the others walked back to the enclosure.

Over-the-Sea made play to the Water jump below the stand, where lie fell ; Dis pute also coming to grief, both animals floundering in the water. Mary Ann then went on with the lead, followed by the favourite and Boiarao, the last-named pulling up at the enclosure; ; half a mile from home Aggravator took up the running, and won in a canter by ten lengths. The winner was bought by Mr. Colman for 59 guineas.

SPIRIT OP THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. __iv TIME s.—The propositions contained in the new Army Estimates appear undoubtedly open to this objection, that they involve a considerable increase of charge without any visible increase of strength. An addition of nearly a million to the cost of the army will simply leave the numbers of the line, the militia, and the volunteers what they are sup posed to be at present. It is impossible to over look this feature of the scheme, but the weight of the objection will be materially diminished by a careful examination of its details. The whole in crease of charge may be divided into three parts. First, there is the accidental and temporary expense created by the occurrence of leap-year and the ex ceptional price of provisions. For that, of course, no Minister could be responsible. The charge comes as an inevitable contingency, and must be so accepted. Next, there is the expense deliberately proposed for the purpose of keeping our establish ments at their presumed strength by a more regular and certain supply of recruits ; and, lastly, there is the outlay which we are recommended to incur for the sake of an effective reserve. These last two items form the only debatable parts of the scheme. When it is said that the addition of nearly half a million contained in the Supplementary Estimate brings no additional strength to our military esta blishment the statement involves a fallacy. It is true that the regular army would not be raised above its 140,000 men (Indian garrisons excluded), nor the militia above its 120,000 ; but then it must be re membered that whereas at present these numbers are nominal, the object of the estimates is to render them real. In fact, the first thing required was a provision of some kind or other for bring ing up our establishments to an actual instead of an imaginary strength, and maintaining them at that standard. At present the number of re cruits needed to supply the annual vacancies in the line is not yet forthcoming, while, at the same time, the Militia, instead of being 120,000 strong, is barely 90,000. General Peel desired to place both these forces on a better footing, and for that pur • pose he proposed the direct increase of pay, which in itself represents one half of the additional charge. This charge, from its very nature, appears a large one, but it is defensible for the very same reason. As General Peel remarked in his speech, it is as effective as it is direct. It goes straight into the pocket of the soldier, without the loss of a single penny by the way. Nothing is intercepted for costs of administration or other expenses ; the men will get the whole extra sum which the nation provides. There is good reason, too, for supposing that this is what the men themselves desire. It was found some time ago in the case of the navy, that though the actual receipts of a seaman in the Queen's ser vice were greater, all allowances considered, than those in the merchant service, the clear increase of pay which the latter offered sufficed to turn the scale in its favour. The men overlooked the allowances, and looked only at the net amount of wage. Even if they instituted a more careful comparison of terms, they preferred to take their whole pay in money, which they could spend as they pleased, in stead of having a portion of it spent for them, no matter how well. It may be assumed, therefore, that if our soldiers are to have better pay, the addi tion will produce the greatest effect if represented in the shape of hard money, as General Peel has proposed. Indeed, he predicted with confidence that the £400,000 Or £500,000 a year to be thus applied would yield us a return in the shape of complete in stead of defective establishments, so that we should, in reality, obtain an increaseof militarystrength, not by addition to our presumed numbers, but by the actual maintenance of those numbers from one year to another. This, we may say, has been the chief as well as the most costly object of the new estimates. It was first required to complete the army and the militia, and to rcnder each force actgally effective „ . CORNER OF BOND-STREET. AWARDED TO C. F.

And here it should be observed that if no very comprehensive scheme is suggested, neither is any great outlay proposed. The %%hole project stands for only £50,000 in the estimates ; and its effect, according to Gen. Peel, would be this—that we should be enabled, at a moment's notice, to fill up every battalion stationed in these islands to a strength of 1,009 men. - Assuming that we had 50 b ittalions at home, this vi ould give us 50,019 regu lar troops, who would be supported by 91,000 mili tia, and 150,000 volunteers—in all a force of 300,090 men available for the defence of the kingdom. So far, therefore, the object of a reserve would be at tained, and it is, we imagine, of no great avail to argue that, beyond this, very little is accomplished. It must be admitted, that while Gen. Peel's propo sals will give usa respectable army of reserve for shor es, vasi of another they will not give u th s e a p r ro es t e e r c r ti e on ar o m f y o f u o r o rt l h v e n in coun try. We should remain nearly as incapable as be fore of undertaking any great military expedition ; but on this it must be observed that no estimates likely to be approved by the House of Commons could much affect our competence. If our military establishments are to be organised on a scale ad mitting of offensive warfare at short notice, we must be prepared for figures very different from those now presented. But, however forcibly the case may be put, it may be taken for granted that the neces sity will not be admitted by the public. We are alive to the need of defending ourselves, but not to that of attacking others. We see from the estimates be fore us that armies cost more than formerly, and that the charge may increase though the establish ments remain stationary. Gen. Pea had enough to do to provide fin his 140,0J0 regulars and his 120,000 militia, without taking into his considd ration the p2ssible requirements of an offensive war. The real gist of the estimates, we repeat, is the maintenance of our military forces as they are, or rather as they ought to be. We have not really got all our regular troops nor our militia, though we are supposed to have them, and General Peel would spend half a million in converting the supposition into a reality. The rest of the adl tional charge is either the inevitable incident of a time of high prices, or a provision for establishing a reserve on a moderate scale, but at an equally moderate cost. . The true way to look at the pro posals is by the light of our actual position. If the estimates of last year really . supplied us with the establishments assumed, the estimates of the present year, which profess to. do no mor, and yet are heavier in charge, would not be defensible. But the facts are otherwise. The army cannot be kept up to its strength ; the militia is 30,000 Short of its numbers, and the extraordinary demand now made is for the purpose of placing both forces on their proper footing. In reality, therefore, though their is no apparent increase in strength, there would be an actual increase. We should pay more money, but we should get, what we did not get before, a full return ; and if this were the sole result of the scheme it would not be a slight one. When we have got our regular forces and our Militia com plete in numbers and well organised, it will not be difficult to discover the framework of a good reserve. THE GREAT EASTERN. In the course of a few days the Great Eastern Will be ready for service between France and New York, as nearly all the alterations and repairs will be completed by the end of this week. Since the big ship returned to the Mersey after her successful cable expedition she has undergone a complete overhaul. In the first place she was stripped of all her cable-laying fittings, and had her screw boilers removed, after which she was placed on a gridiron on the Cheshire side of the Mersey, and nearly opposite to the vessel's moorings in the Sloyne. While beached the bottom of the ship was scraped, and one or two plates which were in a somewhat defective state were replaced by new _ones. 'These repairs were done under the immediate superinten dence of Mr. George Beckwith, the chief engi neer on board the Great Eastern. While these repairs were being accomplished outside the vessel, a number of extensive and important alterations were being carried on inside the ship, under the direction of Sir J. Anderson. New screw boilers, especially designed by Mr. Beckwith, and con structed at the Vauxhall Foundry, Liverpool, were put on board without the slightest hitch, and satis factorily tested. These new boilers will generate a much larger quantity of steam than could be pro duced by the old ones, and as a matter of course give a greater propelling power to the engines. The old paddle crank has also been removed —a task attended with considerable risk and difficulty, but safely accomplished— and a new eccentric shaft, made at the Mersey Forge, has been introluced instead of thepld crank. This alteration will also tend to give increased power to' the paddles. In fact the engineering department has undergone a most efficient and careful overhaul, and when the big ship is ready for sea, this de partment of the vessel with its workshops, con taining lathes, forges, &c., will have more the appearance of a well-regulated foundry than the engine department of a steamship. A steam steering apparatus has also been constructed on deck close to the wheel, and the ship can be either steered from the bridge or from the site of the steering gear. There are also two powerful donkey engines on deck—one forward and the other aft. Extending about 140 feet on the after-part of the deck is a splendid dinner saloon, capable of accommodating about 500 people at once. This saloon will be one of the most splendid on any ship afloat, it is twice the length of the one on board the Scotia, is 2ft. higher and 7ft. broader. Attached to this saloon is a commodious house, containing the pastry shop, bakery, and a bar. The top of this saloon forms a fine promenade, about 200 ft. in length, which in fine weather will, no doubt, be well appreciated. On the forepart of the deck is another but smaller saloon, which, among other essentials to comforts, contains a barber's sho p. While other alterations and improve ments are being done on the deck, down below the alterations are of an equally elaborate and extensive character. The large space which was formerly used for the cable tanks have undergone a complete renovation. Three grand saloons have been con structed, and when completed will form a splendid suite of apartments. The ceiling of these saloons will be beautifully decorated, and the walls covered with a splendid French paper, on which will be impressed scenes of different places in Europe, Asia, America, &c. Close to and in easy communications with these saloons arc the berths and staterooms. The curtains for the berths, which will give sleeping room to 3,000 pas , ' aengers, are all of one uniform pattern. The mate rial selected is an elegant and costly English challie, of a light cream-coloured ground, with run ning roses. In order that the passengers may be well cared for, a washing machine, capable of doing any amount of washing, has been fitted up, combined with which is a large drying-room. There is also a clean and well ventilated hospital fitted up. Further down in the vessel, but almost in direct communication with the upper deck, arc the ice-houses, beer and wine " cellars," to gether with an immense storercom, capable of containing 500 tons of passengers' luggage, and that without inconvenience. One of the wine " cellars" alone has room for 500 dozen of wine. - The Great Eastern will, in addition to 11 lifeboats and 11 ordinary boats, carry a screw steam launch, 55ft. long, which will be slung to the ship's sides by two immense davits. A. large condenser will also be on board, capablaAsstudensing 10,000 gallons of water per day, which will lae,ye l _ry ample for all purposes, when we consider that wlTn the vessel sails from the Mersey she will have 3001 gall ins of water on board. She will also take out 7,000 tons of coal. lIER MAJESTY'S STAGHoUNDS.— We are requested to state that Lord Colville will not take these hounds to the proposed meet at Colonel Lloyd Lindsay's on the 22d inst. the local farmers having intimated that their grass land is " laid, up" for the season. MACKEREL —During the past week from 40,000 to 50,000 mackerel were caught by the Cornish boats, a very large proportion of which supply was sent to London, Prices varied from Oe. to•3Ba. per six score. ' • THURLES, March 11. Until to-day this town was unprotected by troops. It is the seat of a Roman Catholic archbishopric, and here the famous Synod of 1850 was held ; but I fear that neither its college nor its cathedral, its educational establishments, nor the religious edifices with which Roman Catholic piety have endowed it, have kept out disaffection. Besides being an object of reverence to Catholics, Thurles is the centre of a rich agricultural district-, and can boast of a con siderable trade; but a large proportion of the in habitants are possessed by the Fenian folly. For some days past it has been feared that they might have an opportunity of showing their sympathies, for Thurles is among the many place designated, with more or less of truth, as points of attack. No doubt its name and tradi ions, to say nothing of its position on the line of railway midway between Dublin and Cork, would have made it a convenient point for the insurgents to have and to hold. But the town was garrisoned by a considerable body of constabulary, and the Fenians here, as elsewhere, had a wholesome dread of the rifles of this stanch and well-drilled force. It so happened that on the dar appointed for the general outbreak a fair held at Thurles had caused a concentration of the police force there ; and afterwards, instead of being scat tered in out-stations where they would have invited attack, they were very properly kept in the town. The insurgents were in some force around Thurles. At Rosskeene, about four miles off, they burnt a police-barrack, m -b a ra dre usual licewas empty a arms thee in time houses and they theirack, which ua l foray of the neighhouring gentry. But their worst act was the murder of a man named Tracey, who re fused to join their ranks. The insurgents called at the farm-house of a Mr. Reardon, and demanded arms. Seeing Tracey, who was. Reardon's brother in-law, they summoned him to follow them, and, when he would not do so, one of the party shot him without scruple. There is reason to believe that this is not the only instance in which summary punishment has been dealt out by the insurgents for this contumacy and want of patriotism, as they regard it. Elsewhere men have come in with wounds which they allege were thus inflicted, though, of course, it is possible that those wounds were received when the men were attacking or attacked by the constabulary or troops. From the first, however, the peasantr3 have shown alarm at the prospect of impressment. Probably the Fenian leaders caused their agents throughout the country to give out that those who did not enter their ranks when the rising came would be punished. That this was understood is evident from the anxiety of many of the country people to get out of the way. In Kerry, at the first outbreak three weeks ago, some of the men took to their boats and hid, themselves in the creeks and estuaries of the deeply indented coast. Again, some fugitives were found on the G-altee mountains the other day, who had gone there to escape the Fenian press-gang ; and I am assured that around this town some of the pea santry have slept away from their cabins, behind haystacks or even in ditch-bottoms, while farmers' sons have come into Thurles at night to be out of harm's way. The Fenian chiefs evidently desire to compromise as many as possible of the country people, whose enthusiasm much colder than that of the dwellers in towns. They think, with rea son, that when once they have put a pike into a man's hand and placed him in the front rank he must go forward, since the chances are that no one will believe him if he says that he was there unwillingly. At Kilteeley, the other day, recruiting was enforced by repeated threats to shoot any one who refused to serve ; and shots were now and then fired in the air to intimi date the villagers. The relations of one of the men killed in the attack on Kilmallock barrack declare that he was forced out of bed by the in surgents, resisting as well as he could, and that they threatened to cut off his hands unless he marched with them. Poor fellow, it was for him a march to death ! lam afraid it would not be safe to infer that the country people are opposed to Fenianism. Most of them hereabout sympathise with the in surgents, or at best hold themselves neutral ; but there is little or none of that active sympathy which would induce them to offer themselves as recruits. In the towns far more fiery spirits are to be found. It is likely that this sympathy would really have taken an active form had the Fenian plans been matured a few years ago. Then the Irish farmers were in wretched plight, and would have listened far more readily to seditious teaching than they are disposed to listen now. In the counties of Tipperary, Cork, and Kerry, I hear on all sides that Irish farmers were never better off. Butter, eggs, dairy produce, and stock fetch high prices. and the small farmers in these and no doubt in other parts of Ireland are in their small way ex ceedingly prosperous. " They are full of money," one of this very class said to me; and he was a man who had bought his 20 acres of land, and was no doubt himself well to do. These men can afford to give comfortable marriage portions to their daugh ters, as the invariable practice here is ; and mar riages were never more frequent than they are in certain districts here—a pretty sure test of prospe rity. This prosperity makes the farmers in general think that a change in the direction .of a Fenian Republic ►night not 113 for their good. such loyalty is rather of the negative order; but as far as I can test the prevalent feeling this is really what it comes to. As for the peasantry they are timid, and have not much faith in the Fenian enterprise. But they sympathise with the insurgents, and give no infor mation of their movements. Rewards of £250 have just been offered for the apprehension of Captain or Colonel Dunne, who led the attack upon the police-barrack at Kilmallock, and small rewards for those concerned in attacking the barracks at Emly and other plats. But these offers hardly ever lead to the discovery of guilty persons. An in former and spy—" a stag," as he is called in Tip perary=is held in greater detestation than a mur derer. It is not only the informer himself who suffers; the infamy attaches to his relations of whatever degree, and his children unto the third generation. Probably this horror of informers and of " blood-money" originated in the cruel repres sive laws against Catholics, which united all who were of the old faith against the tyranny of the ruling class in those days, ar.d made him infamous who betrayed a co-religionist. The cause exists no longer, the sentiment lingers still, and avails to Fro tectg u i l e , t ni in Eß t l h C is K L i I s l t N e. C e T t I .

The rebels are said to have been in some force in the wooded glens on the southern side of the Gal tee mountains, between Mitchelstown and Cahir. There was no attack, as reported, on the police barracks at Mountmellick, Queen's County. The facts are that a drunken man fired a revolver at the barracks, and the police hastily sallied out and fired a volley down the street, wounding the drunken man slightly, and unfortunately killing a respect able inhabitant. All quiet here. The weather is exceedingly stormy.
