The heavy betting of the two previous nights had apparently exhau=ted speculators; for this morning at the Rooms business was but languidly carried on, the two favourites having equal friends. Without any demonstration 65 to 40 was accepted respec tively about Hermit and Achievement, opinion being still divided as to which would start absolutely first, favourite. Meanwhile Vauban and Julius had changed places in the quotations, the former declin- . ing to 1,000 to 60, whilst the odds of 1,000 to 70 were freely accepted about the Duke of Newcastle's colt. Challenge was friendleg; at 25 to 1, but Fer vacques had numerous friends at 30 to 1. There was a growing disposition to back Van Amburgb, seeing which bookmakers decreased their offers, and l i not more than 40 to 1 was forthcoming, whilst would-be backers stood out for 50 to 1. Those odds were betted against Longchamps, and one inquiry after Taraban met with an offer of 100 to 1. People were prepared for an enormous attendance, but the assemblage fat exceeded all the expectations that had been formed. The muster in the Ring was very great, and the excitement that prevailed has certainly never been exceeded, if, indeed, equalled. The weather was most favourable for witnessing the race, there being an equal absenceof glare and haze, and the racecourse was as clearly defined when viewed from the Grand Stand as a carefully drawn map or plan. The scene at Epßim iitrofttorterth described, but the spectacle presented by the Town Moor at Don - caster is not so familiar to south country readers. The contrast furnished by these two great meetings is extraordinary. Here, all down the course, as far as the Red House (the well-known point famous in many a St. Leger story), there was a dense and sombre mass of people, and when they closed in after the decision of the first race they spread over Hermit succeeded in reaching the mare's quarters, the effort was futile, for Challoner had only to let out Achievement to secure a length lead, which was maintained to the end. Julius was ridden out for the hundred pounds for the second horse, and was only deprived of it by a head. Vauban was fourth, half a dozen lengths off, his stable companion (Challenge) being next.. Taraban ran much better than was anticipated of Win, but Longcliamps and Fervacques were never formidable. No sooner had the mare passed the post than the pent-up enthu siasm of the multitude burst forth, and the.people swayed and pressed forward to get near their idol. The police were unable to keep the crowd back, and the excitement was even greater than when Achieve ment's brother, Lord Lyon, won the same race last year. The victress returned to weigh in amidst deafening and reiterated cheers, and the crowd seemed almost wild with delight, a hundred hands patting her at once, and thousands of voices shout ing her victorious name. Some of her more de monstrative admirers even endeavoured and occa sionally contrived to snatch a hair from her tail, as a memento of her triumph. It was with the utmost difficulty Challoner could force his way back with the mare ; while Colonel Pearson—the very type of Thackeray's " Colonel Newcome"—stalked sedately at her side with an air of quiet pride, which he well might feel, having tred two such horses as Lord Lyon and his sister Achievement. Custance looked pale and chagrined.

All the Comic Stars engaged. The GREAT VANCE THIS EVENING. declined to ride Hermit in th 43 -Derby; while in the Oaks he bad been defeated on Achieve ment. To-day he had been beaten by the very mare with whom he had been identified, and whose overthrow in the Oaks had alienated him from her colours. There could scarcely be a greater accumulation of cross-purposes for any jockey. James Dover, of Ilsley, has now had the good for tune to train the winners of two successive St. Legers, and Challoner, one of the most able and skil ful horsemen of the day, has thus ridden three St. Leger conquerors, namely, Caller Ou, The Marquis, and Achievement. The Marquis of Hastings is un doubtedly the largest winner, as his lordship had backed the mare for thousands since the York Meet ing, and, in the parlance of the turf, " would not be stalled off." Colonel Pearson, the owner and breeder of Achievement, has probably won a comparatively small stake. He is a sportsman who bets but to little money. The public were right in conjecturing that the race would resolve itself into a match be tween Hermit and Achievement, and " public form" was verified, as the only time Hermet ever met Achievement last year he was overthrown easily, while the running of the Great Yorkshire Stakes was for once in a way borne out to the letter by the distance Vauban finished from the winner.

THE GREAT ST. LEGER DAY. Whenever one of the - great races of the season resolves itself into a match, more particularly be tween a mare and a horse, such, for instance, as Achievement and Hermit for the St. Leger, the excitement and enthusiasm of the sporting public are always unbounded. - The present year has been one of remarkable turf surprises, and, to a certain extent, racing m en had b anything. Hermit' s success for the Derby, in the " invalid" conditi on in whichee been he r t e h p e a n r e w d a for r wa a iu re gardedas connection o n e that with iftht thereht the emostep were errt. extraordinary episodes that who somewhat H ermi o e wa e capriciously o o t an It will doubtless be remembered unsullied insisted, after the Derby, ot victory, w a n tin g an p d eople that he owed his triumph t o what i Upon that occasion the infatuated s termed a °' fluke. " defeated simply because his stable companion followers favourite, Vauban, declared that their a h they ee d yr f ai a ne i l es e i s d ht ea t d o d make c t ,o h , nemfipuramdc "muddled" ld s e t dw r , la n e g nw idol had been e a n yt o .t ugb , Ascota n s d t v h i l a l e t was started to force the running ina This view, Wales's Stakes, and the m are , whom eh t e h Prince Duke o o f f Beaufort had " leased" for the express purpose, performing her mission most efficiently, Vauban beat Marksman, Achievement, Van Amburgh, and o ther animals of high reputatio n , b y ten lengths. declared that A c hievement had dimmed the gl ory o f her two-year old career by her the r eturf complacently utter disgrace in the Oaks, and the wiseacres of she was a " jade," and deficient of st • amina to last over severe courses. The mare had • previously been worshipped with an almost irrational idolatry, and now she was unscrupulously defamed. Certainly her performance in the Oaks was little short of con temptible. She had been unable to make an effort when Custance asked her to face the 1111. , and a t Ascot she literally " stood still" before Vauban. While the supporters of the Duke of Beaufort's animal protested that the slowness of the pace for the Derby had nullified the prospects of Vauban, the adherents of Achievement, by a parity of rea soning, declared that if Custance had gone early to the front in the Oaks the favourite would have won. The stable party were much dissatisfied with their jockey, and Custance, who had ridden such a bril liant race only a year previously on Lord Lyon for the Derby, found himself suddenly deprived of his favourite cap and jacket, in which he earned so much celebrity as a horseman. Immediately after the results at Ascot, those who looked forward to September agreed that the St. Leger was even then confined to three—Hermit, Vauban, and Marksman. It should be mentioned that Hermit had not up to the St. Leger been beaten this season, and, by easily obtained victories at Ascot, seemingly con firmed the excellence of his Epsom triumph ; and Marksman, had he kept well, would, there is no doubt, have commanded a large amount of inone tary support from the public. Mr. Merry's colours have a lways been extremely popular, but they seem to have fallen upon evil times. Since the day when Dundee ran home in the Derby of 1861, literally " on three legs," second to Kettledrum, Mr. Merry has been tantalised with the po - ssession of a series cf splendid cripples, such as Lidlington, Student, and Marksman. The latter—although in the early part of August backed for the S. Leger in hundreds, down to 8 to 1 —failel to stand his L-ger prepara tion, and there being no help for it, his owner was compelled to scratch the horse wko had only been beaten a neck by Hermit in the Derby, and who, it is fair to presurne, with health and soundness, must have proved at least formidable on the Doncaster Town Moor. Not until the York Meeting was the common opinion that the St. Leger was re duced to a match between Hermit and Vauban suddenly dissipated. • Achievement had since her defeats in the summer retired from public life, and was allowed to rest herself in the vale of East Ilsley. Continual reports emanated there from; stating that the mare seemed to be benefit ing by the change, and that the indulgence she was allowed was invigorating her immensely, improving her action, and developing her muscle. Indeed, it was suggested that she was no longer a lank skele ton, as in the Oaks, but, full of power and life. This intelligence, however, was received with indiffer ence, and the public had evidently lost their faith in the mare, and she could not easily revive the recol lection of her brilliant prowess as a two-year-old. On the only occasion she met Hermit as a two year-old, in - the - Wbodeote` Stakes at Epsom, she beht him by three lengths ; and in extenuation of that performance it was asserted that - the colt got off badly at the start, and hence .his defeat. Still the backers considered that the St. Leger was bound to fall to one of the two horses—Hermit or Vauban —until the Great Yorkshire Stakes shed an entirely new light upon the race. Vauban had been brought out for several engagements, including the Cup at Goodwood and the Biennial at York, and he beat inferior horses in such a "slovenly" fashion that the suspicion was becoming prevalent that he was losing form or getting jaded by continuous work and public racing. Achievement, fresh from the Berkshire hills, went to York to meet Vauban in the Great Yorkshire Stakes, and the result is now well known. Vauban was totally unable to live with the mare, and Fordham finding the Duke's horse hopelessly beaten stopped him, and Achieve ment won in the grand old style, with her ears cocked as in a mere exercise canter, by ten lengths. Her reputation was by this performance restored at once, while Vauban was forthwith driven to an out side price. Lord Lyon had been immensely popu lar, and his sister Achievement was even more in favour with the public. Since the Great Yorkshire Stakes many thousands of pounds have been en trusted to the mare, and so enthusiastic were her followers that at one time she trod closely upon the heels of the favourite in the quotations. On Friday a demonstration commenced against her, and she was driven to as much as 3 to 1, on the strength of a report that she was coughing; Other sinister ru mours were in circulation, but the arrival of Achieve ment at Doncaster on Tuesday afternoon increased the confidence of her partisans, and, as the records of the betting showed, since Monday she has been backed for no less a sum than £30,000 at least, the Marquis of Hastings being her most spirited sup porter. Vauban, although he had so tarnished his name by his overthrow at York, was not quite de serted by his friends, and was occasionally backed at prices ranging from 12 to 1 to 8 to 1. Some con cern was expressed among his early backers when it was ascertained that he would be deprived of his usual jockey's services. Fordham was not present at the meeting iu consequence of the death of his eldest child on Tuesday morning. T he Duke of Beaufort was accordingly compelled to seek the ser vices of Parry, the Newmarket jockey, who, it will be eueaeulbered, rode __Yaaban with great patience and judgment for the Goodwood Cup, and who has frequently appeared in the ducal hoops. Custance is the regular jockey of Mr. Chaplin, and would have ridden Hermit in the Darby, had not that horse man solicited to ride The Rake instead, presuming that the son of Newminster and Seclusion had by recently going amiss jeopardised his chance hope lessly. Johnny Daley thus secured that most lucky mount, and to-day the latter steered Julius for the Duke of Newcastle, who since the Derby has been Daley's first master. Julius has always held a high rank in the estimation of his noble owner and his trainer, Matthew Dawson, although he signally dis appointed both in the Two Thousand and Derby. He was another "horse of excuses," and many be lieved that he only required fresh opportunities to demonstrate his superior merit. That he once ran Lord Lyon to a head at weight for age over the latter's own course, one mile, was sufficient to show that he possessed fine speed, and having improved greatly of late he had plenty of backers for a place, and he made such a favourable impression, after being seen at Doncaster, that his position was mended some points to win absolutely ; but the special desire with those who had entrusted him with money was to back him to finish in the first three. The Marquis of Hastings, who seemed to have backed almost everything likely to run for the Leger, became the purchaser of the victorious handicap three year old Challenge before the horse ran in the Ebor Handicap, and this animal is supposed to win some £40,000, at outside prices, for the o ff chance. Fervacqt t es ma d e his reputation abroad by winning the Grand P r i x o f Paris, after a dead heat with Patricien, and subsequently he won the Northumberland Plate at Newcastle very easily. This horse is a son of the popular Northern hero Underhand, and being trained by Fobert, of Mid dleham, who, also trained the famous Flying Dutch man, no victory would have been more enthusiasti cally received in the brOad-acred county of York shire. John Scott, whose potency was formerly a household word itl connexion with the St. Leger, had on the present occasion the ungenerous Taraban —one of those animals known to possess private merits, but obstinately refusing to display them when they could remunerate his owner. Careful expedients have been adopted to make him keep his heart in the right place, and pluck out the " white feather." A hood and blinkers have been put on him that he might not see his most dangerous oppo nents, and he has been indulged with a pint bottle of the best port before starting, despite the adage of " throwing pearls before swine," and all to no pur pose. The introduction of a totally unexpected outsider into the betting within the past few days served to give the race an international character. The o n tu new La g candidate s t St. Leger honours was C Lougehamps, by Monarque ra colt l for out of Etoile du Nord, who had never run at home or abroad, and who it was thought possessed suffi cient promise to be backed for an off chance. The Danebury patrons were evidently d e t erm i ne d t o have a pace to suit Vauban, and so Duchess was supposed to be started. The betting th a t t oo k pl ace at the Rooms at Doncaster on th e eve o f th e St. Leger has already been fully r e p or t e d b y te l egram, and needs no recapitulation here. Throughout the evening previously there was a wonderful race be tween Hermit and Achievement for premiership in the quotations, and when at midnight 60 to 40 was laid against Hermit, the news spread in every direc tion, and " the mare's fav our it e " wore t h e l ast word's T h e upon s t.L everybody's eger merein p dis persed from the Rooms and v i c i n i ty. fully or encouragingly. The air possessed a delight ful September freshness, and the sun shone brightly. From six o'clock in the morning heavily laden special and express trains began to arrive from the large manufacturing towns in the neighbourhood, Leeds, Sheffield, Bradford, and York being strongly repre sented ; and by noon the influx of visitors from the metropolis itself, and from the Southern and Mid land districts, rendered the streets impassable. The excitement was unprecedented, and the names of Herinit And 4chievetnent were heard even above the the lower end of the course in a broad black mass of apparently countless thousands. The only holiday aspect the course presented was on the far side, where a double row of drags and carriages, extend ing some distance down, were graced by ladies dressed in gay and elegant attire. The varied hues of costume, blending ,with the green fresh moor, daintily dotted with its white posts and rails, presented a most picturesque appearance. Amidst the dusky and impenetrable throngs of pedestrian spectators the bright scarlet coats of the huntsmen clearing the course were strikingly conspicuous. The summit of the Stewards' Stand also helped to enliven the scene, Here were assembled the elite of the racing patrons with their ladies, the latter not caring to conceal the interest they felt in the cele brated mare Achievement. The three minor races which preceded the St. Leger were treated with comparative indifference by the majority of the spectators, but it did not escape notice that Sir Joseph Hawley's Xi won the Corporation Plate with Bst 111 b, ridden by French, and not Wells, the jockey so long identified with the successes of the cherry jacket, and the horseman o! Musjid and Beadsman. It was evident that the owner of Blue Gown regarded most seriously the Champagne Stakes fiasco. While the three races before men tioned were being run off, the St. Leger candidates began to arrive in that wretched piece of stubble called " the Common land," which at Doncaster one of the finest racing arenas in Europe—is made to serve for a saddling paddock. Here the vari ous competitors were fairly mobbed by a miscellaneous crowd. Achievement was led into the stables at the back of the Stand, and to the surprise of many she was saddled fully half an hour before the time appointed for the race, and brought on the course first, when. Dover led her about with Challoner up, wearing the jacket of the peculiar " red and black chevrons." the mare was instantly recognised by a roar and a general swaying of the expectant multitude. Mean while Custance, uaptain machell, and the followers of Hermit were sauntering in front of the Stand, and directly the " crack" was seen near the starting post he was at once surrounded. Hermit was actu ally the last saddled, and the backers of the Derby winner were in a breathless state of impatience, especially when Achievement was cantering proudly down, as if throwing out a defiant challenge to her rival. As soon as Custance mounted, and Mr. Chaplin, Captain Machell, and the trainer led him to do battle, there was a great outburst of cheering, which was renewed again and again. When the telegraph board was hoisted it showed twelve run ners, among whom was not absent any notability. Public curiosity and solicitude seemed so concen trated in the horse and the mare that the spectators hardly deigned to cast a glance upon any of the other competitors as they cantered down the course. Achievement, it was admitted by those who had no opportunity of seeing her since Ascot—looked wonderfully improved, and had ap parently not only laid on muscle, but grown and developed in a most surprising manner. As James Dover led her about, prior to the start, she betrayed none of those symptoms of fretfulness which are too often exhibited by her sex, but, on the contrary, was cool and collected, while her coat was as fine as satin. Hermit, on the other hand, and to the alarm and surprise of his friends, perspired freely after his preliminary canter, and where the rein chafed his neck a white lather mark was visible. Ile was somewhat restive, and when Custance rode him down to join the other horses, who were wait ing for him, the Derby hero stopped short midway in the straight, and " sidled" in a nervous and irritable manner. The - condition of Julius reflected the highest credit upon his trainer, Matthew Daw son, and competent judges pronounced his appear ance as magnificent. As it was known that the Dake of Newcastle had supported his colt heavily for " a place," much interest was felt in the son of St. Albans. The Danebury team—Vauban, Challenge, and The Duchessattracted a great deal of atten tion, and it may be mentioned here that the report of Verulam having been borrowed to make the running for Vauban proved untrue. Fordham, under the circumstanoes mentioned above, was absent from Vauban, and the mount was entrusted to Parry. Fervacques was almost unheeded, and Taraban, Vam Amburgh, and The Palmer were destitute of admirers. Lord Glasgow, who loves to see his colours represented in the great Northern contest, started his Maid of Masham colt, and the horse was somewhat ostentatiously paraded about with a leading-rein. After the competitors had taken their preliminary canters, Mr. M‘George marshalled them past the Stand slowly, and when he got them to the starting-post the excitement was intense, w was greeted gr e: o t a e r d when t h great the red flag fall, an d 4, The y 're off !" reverberated shouts, and culminating tldeafening took up the running , and with the slight exception through the air.

Vauba n looked formidable on enter ing the straight, but evidently being unable to stay he was disposed of before reaching the distance, this circumstance proving that a better pace than he had in the Derby was absolutely to his (Es -- advantage ; indeed, the indifferent pace at Epsom must solely have got him where he finished, this conclusion being borne out by the fact of Julius so easily beating him. The tussle in the last 3 ( JO yards was most exciting, but to the initiated it was plain Custance was sitting down and fairly riding Hermit. At the half-distance a tremendous shout announced the approaching defeat of the Derby conqueror, as Custance was seen to raise his whip, and although at the commencement of the enclosure Betting-7 to 4on The Parson, 100 to 30 each aping' Cotytto and Proctor.

In excellent time the competitors' numbers were dis played, and they made their appearance. Achievement and Hermit were attended by a large number of admirers, and as they cantered down to the other ton waiting for them they were loudly cheered by tho multitude. The signal being given, the preliminary canters were taken. Lord Glasgow's by n el. tunnamedHermit, Van colt Amburgh,a nd Achievement, Taraban leadin fol lowed g and mired, and the backers of both looked equally confident.

After a little manoeuvring, however, MiGeorge despatched them on very oven terms when the usual shout "They're off" was heard ringing far and wide, and every eye was bent upon the race, which had commenced in earnest. Vauban, Longehamps, Julius, and Taraban, nearly abreast, were the first to obtain any apparent advantage, but when they hadfairly settled down to work, Longchamps showed in advance of Vauban, Julius, and Taraban, Lord Glasgow's colt, The Duchess, and Challenge lying next, and in the track of these follow ing Hermit, The Palmer, and Achievement, while the rear was brought up by Van Amburgh and Per vacques, the latter several lengths behind the " lion tamer." When about two hundred yards had been covered, Taraban, improving the pace, rushed to the front, and took a clear lead of The Duchess, who at first ran very shiftily, but whom Hibberd, to make the running for the Danebury pair, had now succeeded in getting to the front rank. The only noticeable alteration in the position of the femainder was in that of Julius, whom Daley steadied, Achievement and Hermit at the same moment changing places, the mare now being in advance of Mr. Chaplin's colt. As they commenced the gradual ascent before disappearing from the view of the occupants of the Grand Stand, Hibbard, by dint of parse when they reappeared in s i g ht Taraban still was first, e v o e u ra ld nce o n , y g o m t a t h i n e t a D i c h h e e r s s p o to s tassumefora the a s l e h a o d, rt b utthe j while, aandde Mr. Mackenzie's Lily, Bst 61b (T:Ctralloneo 2 Sir W.

The chairman said he had the gratification of informing the Council that nothing could be more sAtisfactory than his reception in Ireland had been. He was received with that warmth and enthusiasm which were characteristic of the Irish people, and the foundation had been laid of au influential Reform League in Ireland. (Hear, hear.) The last words of the O'Donoghue to him were, " You have accomplished a most wonderful success in Ireland." No doubt there was a strong Fenian feeling in Ire land, and that no one could be surprised at, but it did not in any way interfere with the League. He had been pressed by the O'Donoghue and others to remain and make a tour through the country, but that he was unable to do. Still he promised that if the bill introduced by the Government for the amendment of the representation of the people in Ireland was not such as true Reformers desired, he would make a tour of the country next spring. He then alluded to the proposed banquet, and read a correspondence on this subject which had taken place between himself and Mr. George Potter. Mr. Potter, in a letter to Mr. Beales, stated that the committee of the Working Men's Association determined to celebrate the passing of the Reform Bill by a popular fete on Thursday, August 15, the evening that the bill received the Royal assent. At that time he had never heard, either publicly or privately, that the Reform League had any intention to celebrate the event by any public demonstration. (Cries of "Oh !") Mr. Potter continued :—" As soon as the decision to hold the fete and banquet was confirmed by a meeting at Radley's Hotel on Augugt 20, on the following Tuesday I suggested that the League and the Work ing Men's Association should be solicited to co operate. A letter was therefore sent by the secre tary, asking the League to take part, and a few days after a deputation of three waited upon the council to press the request. None of the Council ex cept yourself received this deputation in the manner and with the spirit which was due to them. They in formed the deputation that an answer would be sent. The Council, as I am informed, then adjourned for a week, and the question wa3 again adjourned, and in the meantime the Banquet Committee hail gone on soliciting the co-operation of members of Parlia ment and others, expecting that the decision of the League would be favourable. Mr. Beales, in reply, reminded Mr. Potter that on the 19th of August he announced that for some time the Council had it in their minds to hold a banquet or fete, and a resolu tion was passed on that very day that steps should be taken to carry out the proposed demonstration. An advertisement announcing the particulars of the proposed Reform League banquet was ordered to be inserted in the newspapers, ana the Council adjourned. THE PRINCESS OF WALES..—It is with sincere pleasure (eve Echoes from the Clubs) that we are enabled to inform our readers that during the last few days her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales has found herself able for the first time since her illness to walk down stairs by the aid of crutches. This must be considered a vast improvement, when it is remembered that for seven long months the Princess has never stirred from a recumbent position. Our correspondents inform us that she has never looked more charming, nor appeared more cheerful and animated than since her arrival at Wiesbaden,
