MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGE2ICF, TWELVE O'CLOCK. No change of importance can be reported in the general discount market. There are few first-class bills on offer, and the supplies of capital in the hands of the brokers continued abundant, the rates ruling at about 11 11 per cent. On Saturday the sum of £05,000 was taken to the Bank of England, mostly in sovereigns. In the Corn Market to-day there were only moderate supplies of new home-grown wheat on offer, and business remained inactive, holders demanding an advance of 2s. to 3s. per quarter on last Monday's current quotations. Prom Frankfort advices, dated 7th lust., it appears that, notwithstanding firm prices from foreign exchanges, very little disposition exists to enter into new engagements, and only cash t ransactions to a large amount took place at even lower prices, which are said to be made by some of the leading houses who intend to leave the city in c onsequence of the design of the Prussian Govern ment becoming every day more palpable to ruin Frankfort and its business. On the 6th instant, at 1 1 o'clock a.m., the telegraph office of Reuter was closed by order of the Prussian Civil Commissair, Aladai, notwithstanding the permission of the city authorities given to Reuter for a telegraph office. Reul, Reuter's agent, was served with the notice to be fined 10 thalers for every new message. Mr. Charles Oppenbeina, whose indefatigable ex ertions on behalf of the creditors of Overend, Gurney, and Co. have been so successful, is, we are glad to hear, to receive some substantial acknow ledgment of his services, which, it must be allowed, 11 0 has well earned, he being the only one who has v olunteered to give his time and trouble to fight for the rights of the creditors under such great difficul ties. From the manufacturing districts the accounts for the past week represent that Manchester busi ness has been exceedingly dull, and prices have shown a further decline. In the woollen districts of Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield, the opera tions have been principally in heavy goods for autumn requirements, and previous rates have generally been well sustained. The hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Not tingham trade have been inactive, but in the hard- Ware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wol verhampton there has been rather more animation, Chiefly through the receipt of orders from the East Indies and America. A report of the Agra Bank to the 31st ult. has been issued. It states that the results of business since the resuscitation has realised the best antici pations, and would admit of a dividend to the A S hareholders ; but that it has resolved to postpone any distribution to the end of the year. The cre ditors of the cld bank have already received 15s. in the , pound, with 5 per cent. interest, and it is be zieved that the discharge of the two remaining in stalments of half-a-crown each due respectively on the 15th of March and the 15th July, 1868, can be efTeeted considerably before these periods. On the question of the surplus assets that will remain to the old shareholders the belief is they will realise the expectations hitherto expressed. Two o'CLocK. c O n Saturday afternoon th e B r iti s h F un d s were ' rt ner, and Consols closed at an advance of i f per cent, , and this morning there was a further im plovement, but it was of short duration, and the quotations now are lower than they were at the el ciee of l as t wee k , v i z., 94i I for money and the 10th, and 94f 4 for the next account.

October BRAZIL AND 711 E RIVER PLA7E. The R.M.S. Shannon, with the mails from Brazil and the River Plate, bringing a fortnight's Later news from the seat of war in Paraguay, have no _ _ corroborated the intelligence received by telegram of an attack being imminent. On the contrary, i t would seem, from all the news gathered, that the allies were concentrating their forces, and that they would not make any attempt upon the strong forti fications of the Paraguayans. Skirmishes had taken place between the advanced posts, in Whi c h it seems that many Brazilians were killed and wounded, and a body of 300 cavalry of the allies who had advanced to reconnoitre had been com pletely cut up. General Osorio had arrived at Itati, having giv en up the projected advance into Paraguay by way of Candelaria, on the Upper Parana; his force was estimated at about 4 , 700 of all arms. The Brazilian fleet, remarkable for its masterly inactivity, numbered about 70 vessels, including nine iron clads, and was still at its old anchorage below Curupaity. At and near the city of Corriaites the river presented a very lively appearance, as there were over 18,000 tons of shipping engaged in carrying supplies for the allied army, and army con tractors were enriching themselves with Brazilian gold. At Buenos Ayres trade was dull. The Pre sident, General Mitre, had left on July 22d to re sume the command of the army atTujuty. The inte rior provinces of the Argentine Confederation were still in a state of revolution ; the intelligence is far from satisfactory, and peace and order cannot be restored until the war with Paraguay is brought to an end. In the province of Tucuman a new re volution had been hailed with joy, and the rapidity with which one succeeds another may be learned from the fact that Rioja has had no fewer than 15 governors in seven months, and Catamarca 17 governors in less than four years. The Argentine Congress has unanimously condemned the secret protoeole of the secret treaty of the triple alliance against Paraguay, which had become known through the publication thereof made by her Majesty's Government in papers laid before Parliament. It had been proposed to vote £BO,OOO for fortifying the Isle of Martin Garcias, in violation of treaties which stipulate this island being maintained as neutral ground, even in time of war. The question of removing the capital from Buenos Ayres had begun to be discussed by the press, and great fears were entertained that this question would again serve as a base for civil war, so greatly to be regretted iu a country where peace alone is necessary for its advancement and pros- perity. At Montevideo all were anxious for the coming elections, and to have a regularly organised govern ment, and an end to the dictatorship of General Flores. Since the Gunpowder Plot to blow up the said Government nothing of interest had taken place. Colonel Fortunate Flores, a son of the dic tator, has been banished to Europe, and deprived of command, being very unruly, and having kept the Ministers and other officials in bodily awe for some time past. One of the Ministers, Senor Flangini, is confined to his bed from rough treatment received at the hands of this young tyrant. At Rio de Janeiro warm debates still occupy the Chambers on the issue of paper currency and new war loans, without which, the Minister states, an Imperial bankruptcy was to be feared. It was reported that 1,600 Brazilian infantry had attempted to enter Paraguay on the north, but were so harassed by the enemy's cavalry as to be forced to retreat, having also experienced heavy losses by cholera, which had broken out on the march.

The country markets hold on Saturday were fairly sup plied with new wheat, but scantily with old produce. Tho trado was firm for all descriptions, and prices advanced from is to 3s per qr. Flour was steady, and oats in some instances commandod more money. Beans and peas wore firmer. On the continent the grain trade generally was steady al full rates. The imports of grain, &A, into London last week con, sisted of 31,167 qrs of wheat, 3,906 barley, 37,421 oats, 2,400 beans, 3 tares, 3,251 linseed, 3,765 rapeseed ; 11,316 maize, 25 qrs sundry, 2,399 sacks:Lai 1,791 barrels of flour. There was a fair average quantity of new English wheat on sale hero to-day ; but the supply of old was trifling in the extreme. For all kinds there was a steady demand, partly ou French account, at an advance in the quotations compared with Monday last of from 2s to 3s per qr. With foreign wheat wo were well supplied. The trade was far from active, nevertheless prices advanced is to 2s per qr. The sale for both English and foreign barley ruled steady at previous rates. There were a few samples of now on the stands. The demand for malt was in a sluggish state, at bArely stationary prices. The supply was seasonably good. Oatscommanded extreme rates to a slight advance. Beans were quite as dear as last week, with a very limited quantity on the stands. Peas were very firm_ in price. New qualities were on offer, at 40s per quarter. The flour trade was firm, and the quotations were we supported. CURRENCY PER IMP.

Tho supply of foreign stock on offer in our market to day was moderately good, and in fair average condition. Sales progressed slowly, at about last week's quotations. The arrivals of boasts fresh up from our own grazing districts wore tolerably extensive, whilst the quality of most breeds was nearly equal to last week. Although the demand was by no means active late rates were fairly sup ported. A few very superior Downs, &c., sold at 5s 2d per 81bs, but the general top figure was 5s per 81bs. From Lincolnshire, Lancashire, and Northamptonshire we received about 1,500 short horns and crosses ; from other parts of England 600, various breeds ; from Scotland 3 Scots; and from Ireland 160 oxen, cows, &c. The show of sheep was moderate, but we observed no improvement in their general condition. Nearly all breeds moved off slowly ; nevertheless, prices ruled about sta tionary. The primest Downs and half-breds realised 5s 2d per 81bs, but the general figure did not exceed 5s per Blbs. Calves, the supply of which was rather limited, sold steadily, at full quotations—viz., from 4s to 5s 2d per Sibs. There was a very inactive demand for pigs, and late rates were barely supported. The extreme price was 4s 4d per 81bs. SPORTING NOTES. Tho last week's racing has had very little effect upon future events, although the Earl's two performances at Warwick entitle him to rank amongst the best class of candidates for next year's Derby, for which ho ought cer tainly to be backed at half his present price (50 to . 1). He boat Veda in the first instance very easily, and on the next occasion ran Redivivus to a head, giving him 2st 51b. The form of the two animals alluded to speaks volumes in favour of the Earl's excellence, and, when thoroughly fit, I am quite convinced Lady Elizabeth will have to put her best leg foremost to test his merit. Mr. Chaplin's filly beat Spe culum at Brighton, and ran second to Philosopher at the same place, giving him 91b, and behind him was See Saw, backed for a lot of money. After her defeat by the E trl on Tuesday sho mot Python next day in the Grand Stand Plate, giving him a year and 101 b, who was then only able to defeat her is the last few strides by a head, an 1 her running at Leicester on Friday was oqually goo 1. As re gards Rodivivus, report says he has boon tried to' be the same animal as Dick Turpin, 3 yrs, at level weights, and this is somewhat c3rroboratod by his easy victory over thirteen others in the Nursery Stakes at Abingdon on Fri day. I must now turn my attention to the programme of Don caster September Meeting, which commences on Tuesday next. There are thirty-three acceptances- for the Groat Yorkshire Handicap, of which lot the owner of Dntea Admiral has very sensibly paid forfeit, as he could have no possible chance in this company. From the tole weight down to 7st East Lancashire appears to be the only ono with a chance, and ho belongs to a clique who will only run him as a matter of pounds, shilling; and pence, so I advise your readers to leavehim alone. Admiral nous, in handicapping him for the Cesarowitch, evidently did not forget the game that was played with the horse for tho Liverpool Cup. Miss Harrietto and Knight Errant are not unfavourably handicapped ; indeed whichever repre sents Joseph Dawson's stable is bound to be very near the winner. Union Jack and La Dauphine aro not likely to distinguish Mr. Ton Broock's colours this journey, but the latter may prove -good enough to get a situation. Wild Briar ran very forward for a considerable distance in the Goodwood Stakes, and if at the post would be worth back ing for this event, especially as with the penalty for win ning she would only have 6st lllb on her back for the Cesarewitch. I have a great fancy for The Priest, but Padishah is too much of a rogue for me to trust with a boy on his back. Weather Star is very well, and I think sure to run forward, but the Duke of Beaufort's filly ought to have no difficulty in winning if the Admiral's estimate of her quality is a correct one, as he has made her impost for the Cam bridgeshire Stakes nearly two stone more. The stable money is apparently on, and I must therefore take my chance with SEVILLE and THE PRIEST, and, if your subscribers fancy backing ono for a situation, my recommendation is WEATHER STAR. As regards the Champagne Stakes, I presume we shall see Innerdale, Mameluke, Blue Gown, Balsamo, Bel Giorno, Mercury, Lady Ilighthorn, The Parson, Vale Royal, and Ironmaster amongst the competitors; but believing that Sir Joseph Hawley has a great horse in his colt by Beadsman out of Bas Bleu, and that he is very much superior to his stable companion, Rosicrucian, my choice is BLUE GOWN, although I hoar good accounts of Ironmaster. The Filly Stakes will only be a canter for ATHENA. I think the Revival Plate will go to THE CORPORAL or TIHARIT, AS they are entitled to an allowance of 71b and 51b respectively, whilst Cecrops, . Athena, Formosa, Speculum, ecc., aro each of them penalised. For the Glasgow Stakes DONALDBAIN has only False Alarm to beat. If Sir Frederick Johnstone should run CHARLES IL, I see nothing so well in for thg Doncaster Plate. In the Match between NIKE and Tremble I prefer the Duke of Newcastle's filly. The field for the St. Leger will not most likely exceed a dozen, but whatever the number may be, I question if any other starter, besides those enumerated below, can by any chance attract the judge's notice : Horse. Sire. Dam. Prob. Rider. Achievement... Stockwell Paradigm T. Challoner Hermit. Newminster... Seclusion. Custance. Julius St. Albans—. Julie J. Daley. Vauban Muscovite . Palm G. Fordham. Ferva.cques..... Underhand.— Slapdash J. Osborne. Challenge Trumpeter.... Princess Alice Cannon. Palmer Beadsman .... Madame Eglantine. Wells. Taraban Rataplan Wianna, Carroll. Van Amburgh. Van Galen ... Cavriana T. French. Achievement since her victory at York has been in every body's mouth, and has excited an almost unparalleled amount of enthusiasm on her behalf amongst the racing public, and the easy manner in which she won has cer tainly enlisted me amongst her partisans; and as Hermit has to give her 51b for the difference of sex, it will be a close race between them. There is no question that, as a two-year-old, when well, she was at least 51b bettor than Hermit, Marksman, Vauban,. or any of the colts. Julius has wonderfully improved since the Derby day, and if he can stay will, probably, turn out next best, but I cannot for a moment believe he has any chance of beating the two favourites. Vauban's thfeat is too recent to give hint an opportunity of recovering his form, but in his best day ho never was able, I think, to beat Hermit. Fervacquos will stay the distance, and might for that very reason run into a place. What chance The Palmer or Van Amburgh can possibly have I am quite at a loss to know. Taraban, I have always persisted in say ing, will prove himself a race horse some day, and is thoroughly fit to run for this great prize. However I fully anticipate seeing SHARE LlST—This Day.

If this is not the greatest speed ever attained by any ocean steamer, it is, nevertheless, a most wonderful run across the Atlautie, and accomplished without the slightest dis comfort to the passengers, the ship carrying topgallant sails dining the whole of the thus she was under canvas, and never rolling sufficiently to cause any inconvenience oven to tho passengers.

The public sales of colonial wool aro progressing with a fair amount of spirit. Fine wools have readily com manded the opening rates, but inferior sorts have !roved off slowly. English wool has met a slow sale, on former terms. Last week's imports consisted of 1,433 bales from Melbourne, 4,224 Cape, 347 Launceston, and 1,692 bales from Sydney.

The other races on Wednesday are the Municipal Stakes, which ought to be credited to lkir. Merry by aid of Tun PARSON. There aro no lees than forty-seven youngsters handicapped for the Sweepstakes of 10 sous each, but I think the form displayed last week by REDIVIVUS is quite good enough to follow. The three horse's best in for the Corporation Plate ap pear to be WOLSEY, Grey Stocking, and Freemason, which I fancy is the order named. Notwithstanding TUB EARL having incurred a penalty of 51b for the Sweepstakes of 10 sous for 2-yr-olds, run on Thursday, if selected to run instead of Athena, who has to carry 71b extra, I think ho will beat ROSICRUCIAN, who seems to me to be his most dangerous opponent. There is nothing to boat FLYING SCUD for the Scarborough Stakes. Should ATHENA run for the Eglinton Stakes she will win, but in case of her absence SPECULUM takes my fancy most. The Zotland Stakes is a gift to VERULAM. In the Cleveland Handicap CASTANET reads bast in. The Portland Plate was won last year by SKYLARK with 51b more on his back, which should give him a great chance now, and between him and WoLsEr I shall leave the race. Friday's racing includes the Park Hill Stakes, for which I give the preference . to A.E.APEILE, but Ines is suro to prove a troublesome customer. In the Doncaster Stakes VAUBAN, Taraban, and Van Amburgh will have previously decided their pretensions in the St. Leger, but in any case my preference is for tho first named. A ;pod many of tho best 2-yr-olds are engaged in the Sweepstakes of 100 sovs each, whose previous running during the week will be the best guide to your readers, though I have very little doubt Sir Joseph Hawley's representative, probably BLUE GOWN, will win. The Don Stakes will go to FRIPONNIEIt, and the Sweepstakes will, I presume, be a walk over for HERMIT. The Nursery Plate and Doncaster Cup are not vet entered for. A FRESII•MAg. (From a Correvondent of lice Racing Times.) Never in the annals of racing have there been more favourites beaten with long - odds laid 'on them than dur ing the past three. weeks. The excitement at York after the defeat of Vauban and Moulsey by Achievement and Strathconan was nothing compared to what we saw at Warwick when Goodwood cantered home before Gomera in the Cup. The latter was meeting the son of Amanda on 191 b worse terms than when she heat him in the 'Mot Handicap, but when the conqueror of Gomera was beaten by a common plater in the Queen's Plate at Leicester there was an end to all public form, and sporting writers who try to explain such running get lost in a fog. We aro told by one contemporary that the pace) in the Queen's Plato at Leicester was very hot. What on earth was to make it so? Tho Amanda colt is a lazy horse, and, as ho was obliged to make his own running, ho went as slow as donkeys gallop, which lost him the race. When there was a fast-run race at Warwick it just suited him, and won his owner the Cup. Miss Havelock made the running as long as she could, and Fordham brought Gomera to the front about three-quarters of - a mile from home, and forced the pace, which was done to boat Moulsey, as he was the only one they feared, and such running just suited a lazy horse like Goodwood, and won him the race. This is the bust explanation I can give, and all those wbo watched the running at Warwick and Leicester cannot, I think, come to any other conclusion. There seems to be a very grat diversity of opinion about the weights for the two groat autumn handicaps, but it is quite curtain all the top weights are out of the long race until we comp to Lothario, and he has tco much to carry for a maiden four-year-old. From some cause or other the Baron's horses always get badly in, and the gallant Admiral invariably over-rates them. Tourmalin is handicapped at Bst 71b. She has not won a race this year, and Miss Harriette ran her to a head last year for the Queen's Plate at Bedford, and now the Baron's mare is made to give her 211 b. Again, Janua, a very moderato performer, and a maiden 3-yr-old, is made to give Miss Harriette a year and 2lbs in the Cambridgeshire. We were told by a contempo rary last week that the Admiral was determined to handicap all horses on their best form ; surely he has not done so, or why should Janus and Wroughton b 3 in the Cambridgeshire at oven weights when the latter ran Vauban to a head for the Biennial at Newmarket? I once heard a Newmarket trainer say that the cause of the Baron's horses getting so badly in in all handicaps was that ho ran his horses honestly; but in his case honesty is fooliehne6s, and loses what it works ... for. Janitor has ist 211) in the Cambridge'shire ; had • lie re mained in the Baron's stable he would have had Bst 101 b —not that Ithink he has any chance of winning with that weight There aro a lot of horses in both handicaps that could not win with any weight. 131inkhoolie, King Victor, and Cannon Dal are all well in, and will .no doubt be great favourites before the day. Pintail is well in, but she is - only moderate, although she beat Tourmalin ;at a stone this spring at Newmarket, and now the Baron's mare is made to give her 181 b. There are several more glaring mistakes, if we- may call them so, in both handicaps, which I shall point out in my next. I must now proceed to offer some remarks on the events to bo decided ou the Town Moor at Doncaster this week. I may first state that I have been over the course to-day, and the ground is in first-rate order—in fact, it is like galloping on a Turkey carpet. There are seven closed races on the first day, and as the Champagne Stakes will be the most important event on the card, I will point out'what I think most likely to catch the Judge's eye. Mamelake, Blue Gown, Mercury, and Vale Royal are the best of the public performers. Sir Joseph Hawley's horse is sure to be a rattling favourite ; but, as I once stated in these columns, I don't think him a Derby horse, itnd I shall expect to see Marne luke beat him next Tues lay. In the Doncaster Plato Ravioli and' Silenus aro both well in, and I shall expect to sea thorn finish in the order named. Of the 33 acceptances for the Yorkshire Handicap I don't fancy any of the favourites, as I think Seville and Moni tress are very moderate; but, of course, John Day must have a favourite, and the Squire is sure to be followed. I have heard a good account of WeathorStar, and if Miss Harriette has returned to the form she showed us last autumn, she will win if she runs ; but as she is well hi the Cesarewitch and en mbrilgeshiro she might be reserved for one or both of them, and should she come fit to the post and be backed by the stable, I shall look no further for the winner. The Revival Plate I shall award to my old friend Cecrops, as should he come fit to tho post he will boat the two clipping 2-yr-olds Athena and Formosa. Ono is almost at a loss to know how to begin to write about the St. Leger, for sporting readers must now be tired of seeing the performances of Hermit and Achievement chronicled by 'every penny-a-liner. Some time ago we were told that Achievement was beyond all doubt a non stayer, and that she can have no chance of winning the St. Leger, but when she beat Vauban at York she was again called the modern Crucifix. She lost her good name at Epsom through being out of all form, and horses, like mon, often gain a reputation without merit, and lose it without deserving it; but should Lord Lyon's sister come as fit to the post next Wednesday as we saw her at York she will take a lot of beating. Hermit's friends are all sanguine, and the Newmarket people book the Leger a certainty for him—in fact he wins the race every time he gallops on the Limekilns ; but his number is not put up yet. Vauban is backed again, but what chance on earth can he have after his York running? Challenge has been backed to win some thousands by his noble owner, and the Marquis of Hastings put it down freely on him at War wick after the Amanda colt won the Cup. I wonder what he would have thought had he been at Leicester when the latter got beat by a common plater. I think the Marquis will find, after next Wednesday, what with the large sum he paid for Challenge, the amount that he backed him for in the Ebor Handicap, and since then for the St. Leger, that he has made a very dear bargain. Julius, as I have often stated lately, is one of the most improved horses in the race, and is sure to beat all such horses as Challenge and Vauban. To go through the performances of all the horses in the race would be only a waste of time, there fore I shall at once place ACHIEVEMENT 1; _ _ and shall expect a good race with Julius .and HERMIT for second place. The Handicap for two-year-olds on Wednes day will be won by Cornet. Mrs. Stratton is well in in the Corporation Plate. .The Portland Plate is a difficult race to deal with, as it is sure to produce a large field, but we often see it won by a heavy weight, and one never can tell what such horses as Cecrops and Volunteer can do with a lot of bad ones. Bounceaway goes at a great pace over a short distance, and Skylark ; the winner of this race last year, is not badly in, and ono of the above lot is most likely to produce the winner. Weather Star looks as well in as anything in the Cleveland Handicap. The races on Friday will so much depend on previous running that I. shall not hazard an opinion about any of them. MarKsman was struck out of the St. Leger on Thurs. day morning at 9 a.m. Boeswing was struck out of the Warwick Cup on the day of the race at 12.25 p.m. Mr. J. Scott will only have War and Taraban at Don caster. Julius and Challenge aro matched for £.500 a side, h ft, last mile and three quarters of the Cesarewitch course, iu the First October meeting. Alarmist, the winner of the All-aged Stakes at Leicester, on Friday, was purchased by Mr. J. W. Wright for 110 guineas. _ Gentian was bought by Mr. Godding for 51 guineas after winning the Licensed Victuallers' Plate at Leicester, on Friday. Mr. W. J. Legh's colours aro blue, straw facings, blue and straw quartered cap; and Mr. Rowley's, rod, white, aed.blue. Eight yearlings arrived at Matthew Dawson's, on Thursday, from the Duke of Nowcastlo's brooding stud at Clumber. Lord Westmorland sold Skylight, 3 yrs, after her per formance at Warwick on Wednesday, for .£5O, to Mr. J. Wood. Mr. Robert Smith's annual sale of Exmoor cobs, gallo ways, and ponies, will take place on the 25th instant, at Fielder's Repository, Bristol. Mr. J. Wood's two year old filly, Beauty, in consoquonco f breaking a blood vessel whilst at exercise on \Vodnes y morning, at Warwick, was prevented running for the ursory. The Duke and Duchess of Newcastle will entertain a large party at °lumber Park for the races at Doncaster this week. Lord Londesborough will also have a select party at Grimston Park, near Tadcaster ; and Lord and Lady Wharncliffe will receive a large and distinguished party at Wortley Hall. THE VAMPIRE OBJECTION AT OXFORD.--The objection to Vampire for crossing in the City Members' Plate, referred by the stewards of Oxford to the stewards of the Jockey Club, was heard by the Duke of Beaufort and Admiral Rous at Warwick, and considered not proven, but Pep pier, the jockey of Vampire, was warned that, having already been reported once, on his next offence he would be suspended.

BOAT RACE FOR £2O. A boat race which excited considerable interest at Wool wich and Charlton came off on Saturday from the Half way House to Charlton buoy, between Win. Wells and John Lee, both landsmen hailing from the latter place. Party left Woolwich on board the Venus, Capt. Sharplin and at the Halfway House all was ready; the wind was bow evol adverse, making the water lumpy, and Lee, who lost the toss, had the centre station, his opponent being in the smooth water under the south bank. Capt. Sharplin was I I referee , and the men were attended by four-oared cutters, which were not of much use to them, especially in the case of Wells, who nearly lost the race by the neglect of his pilot. They started evenly, and Wells shortly took the lead, which he speedily increased, so that by the time they arrived at Barking and passed the wreck of the Metis, run down on the previous evening, he was ten lengths ahead. Shortly after the City of London, paddle steamer, came along at three quarter speed, and although Wells must have been distinctly seen by the look-out forward, or pilot, the vessel was not eased, the consequence being that his boat was filled with water, as she passed within half a cable's length distance ; ho however managed to keep he r afloat, mad went consider ably out of his course to get into smooth water an d avoid sinking. During this operatio n Lee came u p hand over hand and passed him a mi le from home, leadi ng well for three-quarters of a mile ; when 300 yards, however, only had to be rowed Wells made desperate efforts to get ahead, and near the post collared and passed his man, winning by a length and a half. Distance, five and a half miles; time, 40 minutes. W. Gillman of Charlton trained the winner, who was in good condition not so his opponent. MOORS AND FORESTS.—TIiC report from Perth shire is that there was almost nothing done on the moors or the partridge grounds last week, owing to the all but continuous rains. There has been some goo,' sport among the hares of late, and there would be oxoollont shooting on the ,partridge grounds if the grain was off the fields. PARTRIDGE SHOOTING.—The reports from the partridge manors aro by no means favourable on the whole, many extensive districts b3ing almost bare of young birds. On the flats the thunderstorms drowned a great many young birds, and on the cold clays disease his been so rife that there are literally no young birds to be found. In Norfolk and East Suffolk some average bags have boon made, but in West Suffolk the partridges aro found by hundreds dead, and the sport will bo very bad this season. Indeed upon some manors it is reported :there will not be any shooting-. Up to this time we have only heard_the.i:e tult of the first day, that of Baron de Bliss, who only killed 2O brace upon his manor, Brandon Park, Suffolk. Tho coveys aro large, and ve►y will. In Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire the stock of birds is good, with some few exceptions. Owing to the destruction of the early broods, many " cheepers" are met with, and "Frenchmen" have also interfered with sport in some localities to an unusual degree. The scent has been good generally.—Field. Share A.......a EPOBTLNG INTELLIGENCE This Day. VICTORIA CLUB BITTING—Tins DAT. Business was particularly brisk to-day, both 4 fahe Great torkshire Handicap and The Leger being freely srecn lated on. For the former event several candidates were ao freely supported that it was-. difficult at the opening to discover which had the call, but at the close Seville remained unmistakeably first favourite. Bradamanto was in good odour, while the Priest advanced to a prominent position. Monitress, Thalia, and Knight Errant were each in good request. All sorts of prices were laid against Miss Harriette, who, together with East Lancashire, was very " fishy." The Leger betting underwent little change. An offer, however, to accept two " monkeys " to ono agst Achievement failed to find a layer; 3 to 1 woe laid on Hermit, one, two, three, and 55 to 40 several time.s:on him against "the mare." Vau ban was in good request at his price. The other quota tions, together with the Cesarewiteh transactions, aro appended.
