The 33 competitors assembled at the post shortly after the time sot down, but in consequence of the fractiousness of Jenne Premiere, Wolsey, Blinkhoolie, and Julius, the start was delayed some time, which was further extended through the last-named flinging out viciously on joining his horses, and striking Cannon severely on the knee and foot ; in a third attempt he landed ono on the ribs of Harry Brailsford. Fortunately the horse was not plated, other wise the effects would have boon serious to both horse and rider. Sufficient time having been allowed C tnnon to recover from the shock, they were again got to the post and despatched to an admirable start, the lot leaving the starter in an extended line, which they retained unbroken for the first 50 yards. The running was then taken up by Wolsey, closely attended by Knight of the Garter, Lozenge, Wroughton, andlActina on the upper ground, with Lanoret, Honesty, Leases, Captain Kidd, the Strafford dam colt, Corporal, and Nu occupying the centre, to those succeeded Blinkhoolie, tho Attack colt, Montgoubort, Julius, Cecrops, Nu, Grey Stocking, and Armourer on the left, Adam Bede, Nancy, and William Tell being in the extreme rear, the latter being started to win some bets. In those positions they streamed across the flat, but on commencing the as cent of tho hill, Kenyon steadied his horse, which allowed Knight of the Garter to appear in advance, closely attended by Lozenge, Lenora, Honesty, and Adria, to whom suc ceeded Wroughton, Lord Glasgow's colt, Corporal, and Armourer, to half way up the hill, whore ho gave way, and Wolsey again resumed the command in company with Lozenge, Honesty, and Lanoret nearly abreast. Acttua at the same time gave way and Wroughto n t oo k h er p l ace. Tho rave at this point assumed an interosiing appearance, as the chances of the loaders appeared so evenly balanced that it was not until they fairly reached the crown of the hill that a positive claimant to the honour became manifest, as Lozenge, slightly in advance of Wolsey and Laneret, who had boon sadly hampered by Hone s ty h ang i ng ou hi m , drew away and finished a brilliant race home, Wolsey just getting up in the last stride and finishing with a dead heat. Laneret was beaten by a length only for third, Honesty, was fourth, Wroughton fifth, close up with whom came Knight of the Garter sixth, Adam seventh, the Strafford dam colt eighth, Corporal ninth, and Nu next. Several lengths separated these from Armourer, Grey Stocking, Captain Kidd, Leases, and Ammunition, to whom suc ceeded Harry Brailsford, Jeune Premiere, Duke of York, Mongoubert, and Duchess. The last lot comprised Jasper, Tormentor, the Attack colt, Hippia, and Cecrops. William Toll walked in with the crowd. Deciding Hoat—Even batting, Wolsey for choice, who made most of the running, but was joined half-way in the distance by Lozenge, who, running the longest, won a fine race in the last stride by a neck.

THE HOLBORN VALLEY IMP ii3OV2,MENT. The Improvement Committee of time Corporation of the City of London made an official inspection on Monday of the gigantic works which are now being pushed forward un ler their auspices, and at enormous cost, for bridging over the valley between Newgate-street and Holborn, and for the formation of several lateral streets and thoroughfares, designed to facilitate and accommodate the traffic in that part of the City, and especially in connection with the new meat and poultry market now in course of erection by the corporation on the site of ancient Swithfield. The committee went from G uildliall for the express purpose, accompanied by their chairman, Mr. Deputy Fry, and Mr. llaywood, the engineer. The works now in progress consist of a stately and substantial viaduct across the Holborn Valley, between Hatton-garden and the Western end of Newgate-street, and two side streets connecting the upper part with the lower or Farringdon-street level. Both of these side streets are on the north side of the present line of Holb orn and Skinner-street, Snow-hill. By an act of last ' session, power is given to make a new street from a point of Holborn-hill opposite to Hatton-garden, passing at the back of St. Andrew's Church into Shoe-lane, which will be widened as far as Stone cutter-street. Thence a new lino of street, 50ft. wide, and with easy gradients, will be formed to the eastern end of Fleet-street, near to its junction with Farringdon-street. The viaduct will be 80ft. wide, and will commence at the western en 1 of Newgate street, from which point it will be carried in a straight line to the western side of Farringdon-street, occupying nearly the whole of the space which now or recently formed Skinner-street, Snow-hill, as well as a large portion of the sites of the houses on that line of thoroughfare. It will also in clude a part of the churchyard of St. Sepulchre, at the top of Snow-hill. From Farringdon street westward it will be carried by a gentle curve to the end of Hatton-garden, occupying the sites of the houses which formerly stood on the southern side of Holborn-hill, the largest part of the present roadway there, and a portion of the churchyard of St. Andrew's, Holborn. From New gate-street to the entrance to St. Sepulchre'sChurch the gradient will be so easy as to be hardly percep tible, and at that point the Eastern Approach-street from Farringdon-road will join the viaduct at its northern side. From St. Sepulchre's Church to Farringdon-street the gradient will be 1 in 153, and from Farringdon-strect to Hatton-garden 1 in 143. For all purposes of traffic, therefore, the viaduct may be said to be level. Farringdon-street will be crossed by a cast iron bridge of an ornamental character, consisting of a centre and two side arches, supported by piers of polished granite. At each corner of the bridge there will be flights of steps to enable foot passengers to pass between the upper and lower levels. They will be well lighted and ventilated, and the space beneath will be disposed in shops and warehouses, while the floors above will be eligible for offices or for general commercial purposes. An attempt has been made to render the bridge a more ornamental structure of cast iron than any in the metropolis. Beneath each footway of the viaduct there will be vaultage for the accommoda tion of the houses on either side of the roadway ; outside the vaults there will be a subway for the gas and water pipes, and over the space between each subway, forming the centre of the viaduct, the roadway will be carried on a series of arches. The subways will be about 14 feet high on an average, by 7ft. wide. Shoe-lane, which at its northern end is now but 14ft. wide at one spot, is to be made 30ft. wide, and the viaduct will be carried over it by a girder bridge. This lane is to be continued northwards, with a width of 30ft., until it merges in an entirely new thoroughfare called the Western Approach-street, which will start by a junction with the viaduct at Hatton-garden, and proceed in a north-easterly direction toFarringdon-road. There the new street leading to Smithfield-market and the two streets will therefore form together one straight line of thoroughfare 60ft. wide, giving direct access to the new meat and poultry market and to the north east of London. This new street will be very commodious as far as it goes, but unfortunately it will lodge all the traffic in Long-land, Bar bican, and Chiswell-street. As a remedy to that inconvenience, Mr. Heywood, the engineer, has re commended that the whole of those tho roughfares be widened to at least 50 or 60 feet. The Eastern Approach-street will begin at Farringdon-road, about 130 feet north of the point where that tho roughfare will be crossed by the viaduct. It will be carried nearly parallel with the viaduct for some distance eastwards, and will join it with a gentle curve by the side of St. Sepulchre's Church. This street will form a junction with King-street, and will therefore give another line of access to the new market. The lower end of it will take the place of the thoroughfare known as Snow-hill, the whole of which will be abs..ifbed in its formation, or by the buildings to be erected on either side of it. The whole of the works were designed by Mr. William Haywood, and he is now engaged in carrying them out under the auspices of the Improvement Com mittee of the Corporation of London. Messrs. Hill and Keddell aro the contractors for the viaduct works, one of the side streets, and the circus, and the whole of the bridge, excepting the iron work, which is being done by Messrs. Cochrane and Co., of tVoodside Ironworks, near Dudley. The memorial of the merchants and bankers of London to the Lord Mayor Elect with regard to the arrangements for the procession on the 9th of November was presented yesterday ; and the subject having boon considered by the Ceremonial Committee, it was intimated that the procession will be curtailed so as to prevent as far as possible all ineonvouieueo in the public streets. ~, ~.~. :i L 4d. siAmr;m 6d. 1, El TER 1 IRUaI ()NEUF 'ME PRISON EllS N AI3LS 51 N .1. (Pow, the Rnitbay qj'Sci)t. 26.) The following letter, received by a gentleman in Bombay, from Dr. Blanc, one of the prisoners at INlagdallah, has been courteously placed at our dis posal by the recipient, and will be read with inte rest, we doubt not, by the public : MAGDALLAII, July 23, 18G7. My Dear—, I really do not know whether I am writing to the living or the dead, to a con firmed bachelor, to a happy Benedict, or to nflaneur at the Paris Exhibition. All your fault, dear friend—since I left Aden not a line ! Well, I will not bully you too much, as you might retort the same argument on me, the only difference being that you know where I am, and I only guess where you are. Never mind—at the eve of a serious crisis we must not forget our friends, so that even should the worst happen they might keep our memory as a pleasing thought. I suppose that from the papers you must from time to time have seen something about our adventurous mission, its rise and fall, and lastly, all its elements being consigned to Carcere duro 1 'The summary of our career in this country is easily made. First period of sunshine, bask ing in the smiles of Royalty, from January 28, 1866, to the 15th of May of the same year. On that day great fiasco ! From honoured guests we were turned into prisoners, insulted, seized by the executioners' myrmidons, our swords, belts, and caps violently wrenched from us, our uniforms torn, we were dragged along the audience hall in that humiliating position before all the officers of Theodore's army. From that day the second period begins, all of darkness and of anxiety, always worse and worse. After a few days respite and quiet, semi-prisoners at Gaze from the day of our seizure to the end of May, for a couple of weeks were pretty free at Gaffat. On the 25th of that month, second confiscation of our arm and property (the latter afterwards re stored) ; trial and confinement in a black tent near the Kin es house at Debra Tabor. I was, however, allowed to return to Gant on account of typhus and cholera prevailing there. 31 of July, Mr. Ro senthal an I myself seized at Gaffat by the King, brought to Debra Tabor, tried, sent into a dark house, where we were obliged to have candles lighted all day. sth July, sent to Magdallah, arrived at the fortress on the 12th of the same month, tra velling without bedding or change of clothes through the rainy season. Four days afterwards chained by the leg like rabid camels all in one small room. Afterwards Rassam got a house, Pridieux and my self a small shed unfit for even an Irish pig, still better than the previous omnibus system. Since then, more than a year ago, we have remained in stain quo, the iroas gradually wearing away every muscle of our inferior extremities, and long confine ment ruining our health and weakening our brain. Moreover, left alone, we managed to make our selves more comfortable. In November last Pridieux and myself built a better hut, Cameron also a small and modest one, it is true ; Rassam as good a house as can be found in Abyssinia. Stern and Rosenthal live in the first house assigned to me —Tereus and Pietro (an Italian) have small huts for the daytime, at night in " the kitchen." All we wish is to be able to remain as we are until Thomas Atkin" comes. Our chains are no fun, however—heavy, disagree able things. ItAssam being, as the natives say, the "mister of the dollars," managed to get some lighter ones put on, a kind of patent ring, invented by our former head gaoler ; but what can poor fellows like Pridieux and myself expect ? " Master of salts," a Louse in common, used also as a dispen• nary, heavy fetters, contempt and impertinence, are all the natives bestow upon the poor white men. Dull times, no books, seldom papers, nothing but our own selves to snarl at, but Theodore to curse. Bad food, horrid beds, tyranny and bullying from every one. Dear friend, pity the European captives of Theodorus. But enough about ourselves—a few words about our " kind dear host." We have not brought him good luck—he is going down so fast that he must collapse shortly into a mere brigand— why he is one already ! No country, no people, no friends, be lives by plunder, and passes the time tor turing or killing, not his enemies—he seldom can get hold of them now—but his friends and his soldiers. Ile seems to have adopted a new system of religion and medicine; he sacrifices daily some hundred vic tims, to what divinity I cannot say, unless it is some thing like the furies he worships ; and to cure the excitement of his nervous system, the cries of those he burns alive are the only solace he can find. When we arrived he imposed upon us by his sweet tongue; we saw only the wild beast at rest, in its drowsy state ; we thought him. good, the rebels bad, and that virtue and goodness would at last prevail over rebellion and mutiny. But the mask soon fell ; even at Gaze we saw the six feet long hippopotamus whip tearing to pieces the delicate skin of an Abyssinian lady, and her corpse removed on a small mat trick ling with her blood—but this was nothing. Gondar disappeared in flames, kindled by the " father of his people ;" so that the rebels on the surrounding height might see far and distant the glare of the doomed city ; priests, women, and a few wretches supposed to be rebels were added as fuel; so that the fire should not go out by want of materials. Chief after chief were chained, tortured, and crowded together in small huts ; day after day new murders, new tortures, until one morning he enjoyed the sight of 670 of his soldiers butchered on a mere suspicion of their intention of their desiring to run away. This was, however, too much ; even the greatest scoundrels around hiss got frightened, desertion of all the men from the few provinces until then stil faithful to him took place the next morning, so that the diner that day off 670 corpses cost him the re mainder of his kingdom—rather a heavy bill of fare. In this country there is no rule, no more sovereign —anarchy alone rules supreme, peasants murdor soldiers, soldiers peasants, and Theodorus both. The Galla are in the field, Wakshum Gobaze is knock ing about, anxious to have a shy at Theodorus, but afraid of his own soldiers. This cannot last very long. The peasants kill their cows and leave the soil to take care of itself ; they stand in arms and defend, in their way, their property. For us it is bad enough ; little chancy we have if our people do not come soon. Theodorus on his last legs does not stand on trifles. What cares he now about the Queen of England, of her friendship? He wants blood, nothing else ; of black he ought to be satiated, next he will try what the white man's is like ; in deed he has nearly begun, as a few days ago he killed the six remaining servants of the five Europeans who last January tried to esc.tpe—one of these servants was a native of Massowah, so you see he is getting on. Our only hope is that, reduced as he is, he will not venture here, having to cross 80 miles of country all in arms against him. Specially if Gobaze, his blood enemy, is in the neighbourhood. These two must come to a clash some day : for our sake the sooner the better, though as far as liberty is con cerned it matters little. We would not be allowed to leave the country : only an army can do that. No one in this country believes in the white man any more, and unless they get a practical lesson diplo macy will be of no avail. Still, in Gobaze's hands our lives are safe. If Theodorus comes here after s ay, in that case ora pro nobis the rains, I can only —good bye. Send me all the news and extracts of the Indian papers about our affairs. I should like to see their opinions.--Believe me yours affection ately, (Signed) 11. BLANC. WESTMINSTER ►SCHOOL ATHLETIC SPORTS.—The annual sports in connection with Westminster School com menced yesterday at Vincent-square, Westminster, and will be concluded to-day. There was a very large attend ance of the friends of the boys, and the various contests sot down on the card were watched with eager interest. "G , , NEWSPAPER THE EARL OF IIARROWBY ON kAt.7 l -:;&* . i FACTOR} ACTS. 14A:(A l l Lord Ly ttleton presided et ti e eighth alp meeting of the South Siaffordshire Educational`ii•gl .i r sociation for the Promotion of Adult Education " held at Walsall on Monday afternoon, and in the evening his lordship distributed the prizes and cer tificates to the successful night school candidates. The Earl of IlAnnowei moved the following re solution That this while reg:ti ding the condition of education amongst factory opera tives as attributable to parental neglect, yet looks upon the introduction of the Factory Acts into this district as likely to prove a most valuable stimulus to the progress of sound elementary education." The new acts, which were to come into force very shortly, would affect the interests and habits of all classes of the population very ma:.erially, whether employers or employed, whether parents or children. hitherto it had been the complaint that it.was no use to build schools, for if in some cases the people availe I themselves of them, the children spent so little time in them that what they learnt there was of little benefit to them in after life. There had been a struggle between the interests of education -• and the interests of labour, and these acts were an attempt to conciliate the two interests. Hitherto there had been a difficulty in inducing parents to make a sacrifice of their children's earnings fur the more distant advantage of having their children educated. Now the new act said that children should not be allowed to undertake employment unless they had received, or were receiving a certain amount of education ; and it also said to employers that • they should not, unless under heavy penalties, em ploy children unless they had received a certain amount of education. These acts would make a • great change in the question of education, and, in fact, in society generally, as was the case in Lan cashire when the acts were first introduced there. When the acts were first introduced there, parents said they could not do without the wages of their children, and employers said they must have the as sistance of the children, or the several branches of manufacture carried on there must stop. These difficulties were, after some time, overcome ; and now there was but one chorus of general satisfaction on the improved condition of all classes in that dis trict. They were aware that the Black Country district required improvement, for, unhappily, they saw abundant proofs of it when they looked at the proceedings of the quarter sessions at Stafford and elsewhere. They know what men were unless they were trained and educated—they knew that they were but little better than animals, though animals of a higher kind. Education had not been carried on to that extent to which it ought to have been. The children had been taken from tie school-roonts and plunged into the darkness of the iniae, before their minds were educated or improved, or their characters disciplined. And as they sowed, so they must reap ; but they hoped that the present was the beginning of better days, and that this district, though black in its outward aspects, would not be marked with a black spot on the moral map. A great deal, however, would have to be done to meet this new system. New schools would Lave to be built, which would require great exertions ; applica tions should be made to the Privy Council, and exertions would have to be made by all classes, in cluding even the working classes, who would find it to their advantage to aid their children to obtain the advantages of the new legislation. It would be said, perhaps, that this legislation, dealing as it did with children, did not specially fall within the province of the society as dealing with adult education ; but the child was the father of the man, and if they edu cated the children the adults would soon rise into a higher sphere. - 77:= • - _ THE FRAUD ON THE MIDLAND R.IIL W.-11' COMPANY. At the Guildhall Police-court yesterday, William Eustace, of No. 4, Maids-hill, Paddington, and George Cowen Little, surrendered to their bail be fore Mr. Alderman W. Lawrence to answer the charge of having stolen three bales of carpet which had been wrongly delivered to theta by a carman belonging to the Midland Railway Company. On the 25th of March last three trusses of earl ets w ere sent from Bradford to Messrs. Easten and Co., warehousemen, carrying on au extensive business at No. 2, Fell-street, Wood-street, City, and Nos. 2 and 3, Hart-street. The clerk who made out the way-bill for the carman wrote the address " Easter and Co., Addle-street." The carman could not find the name and address, and therefore made inquiry, and was told that Eustace and Co. had just moved from Addle-street to No. 7, Phillip-lane, and no doubt that was the firm intended. The carman went there, and said he had sonic goods for Easter and Co., and asked if that was the place ; and Little, who was in the warehouse, said, " Yes, it is all right i" and told him to bring them in. 110 delivered them, and Little signed the way bill. Shortly afterwards Messrs. Eaten and Co. applied to the company for the carpet, and Mr. Rc]f, the manager, called at Zustace and Co.'s, No. 7, Phillip-lane, and saw Little. lie asked for Mr. Eustace, and Little said ho was at Manchester, and would not be home till the following Saturday. I - Ie then asked to see J. C. Little, the person who had signed the way-bill, and the prisoner never said that he was Little, but said that Little would• be there at that time. Subsequently Little showed Mr. Reif a letter from Eustace, dated Manchester, iu which he said that the goods had been sent to Hastings and partly sold before he discovered they were not his, and that therefore the railway com pany must send him in an invoice, and he would pay it. The Midland Railway Company, however, re fused to make a debt of it, and summoned Eustac2 and Little to this court. Little appeared, and was several times remanded on bail, but Eustace never appeared, and at last a warrant was issued in June last for his apprehension, and Little was allowed to be out on bail until Eustace was apprehended. On the 16th instant Hann captured him, and he was remanded on bail until yesterday, when the two accused surrendered in discharge of their recog nisance& The defendants were formally committed for stealing the carpet, value £4O, the property of the Midland Railway Company and also for conspiring together to defraud the same company of the same. THE GREAT RACE FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP OF ENGLAND—On Monday afternoon W.Lang, of Mid dlesborough, and J. Brighton, of Norwich, ran ten miles at the Hackney-wick grounds for the valuable champion cup and .£25 a side. The conditions aro that the winner should hold the cup for twelve months against all comers, and Mr. Baum's liberal prize has frequently changed hands, Lang on a previous occasion winning the trophy from Fleet. Brighton then challenged. Lang, and hence the race of yesterday. About 1,000 persona assembled to wit ness the running of two such noted pedestrians, and the start was made shortly after four o'clock, Lang being the favourite at slight odds, both men coming to the scratch in first-rate condition. Brighton went away with the lead and maintained it to the 16th lap, when they passed and repassed each other for nearly two more rounds. Brighton then wont ahead again, and continued leading to the last lap (68th). Lang then rushing ahead, and spurting up the hill in the back ztrstch, went in a winner by nearly a score yards. The first five miles occupied '27 min. 15 sec., and the whole distance 56 min. 40 sec.
