(Hear hear.) Another communication he bad received was a most important one—it was from the noble President of the National Rifle Association—stating that the association - would offer the Belgians £2OO to be shot for in prizes— (hear, hear)—and his lordship was most anxious that the English riflemen should assemble at Wim bledon, and there give their Belgian brethern a public reception. For those who shoot and pre ferred it, there will be camp accommodation at Wimbledon. It was alto desirable that the com mittee should be prepared to provi.le the Belgian% with comfortable lodgings. In reference to ent , _r_ tainments, su:th as at the Agricultural Hall and the theatres, &c., it was felt a 4 isable to leave the arrangements to the executive committee. One idea was that the Belgians should have a quiet dal at the Crystal Palace, and that they should all be taken up our river in steamboats, on which occasion it was to be hoped the Thames Regatta and other clubs would turn out their crews and let our foreign friends see a little English life in that respect. Mr. Charles Buxton had intended to entertain the whale of them at Foxwarren, but, having met with an accident, it was doubtful. He (Colonel Lindsay), however, shoulcrhave much pleasure in seeing them at Windsor to view the Castle. Then there would, be treasures of South Kensington and other sights, and he might also remark that the Inns of Court Volunteers had proposed to give the Belgians a din ner in the Temple. Another point to which he de sired to direct the attention of the general commit tee and to ask their sanction was, that some had.ge or medal should be struck and offered to every liel &ail on his arrival, bearing the head o f t h e P rince of Wales, or some other device, in -commemoration of the visit. The next point was, should the re ception committee give the Belgians a banquet ? (Loud cries of " Yes, yea," and " Here.") Th e last grand event would, as a matter of course, be the volunteer review at Wimbledon, when, as well as the English volunteers, no . doubt the Belgian military contingent would fall in and march past his Royal Highness the Commander-in- Chief, after which it was proposed to carry them back to their own country in her Majesty's ships, or by way of Dover. These were the outlines of what was proposed to -be done. (Hear, hear.) Colonel Lindsay then went into statistics, showing that, supposing a visit of 1,000 Belgians, between £7,000 and £B,OOO, would be required to entertain them in a proper spirit. l t o a ne in r a l GREGORY en ifs there suggested shouidbe th o a n t e am of on a gs m t a o s t o h n er ic ennatCteuorre. - y 2EC AFTER Covent-garden Theatre--EVANS' to SUP.

With the east wind still in the ascendant there was a decided falling off in the attendance, nor did the card, with the exception of the Weston S akes, promise much. This, however, went far to relieve an otherwise rather flat day, as some of the best of the young form of the year met in it. Lady Elizabeth, Blue Gown, Grimston, Forest King, and linens were all good public performers, and the three first pnialised for winning. Grimston looked all a winner within the distance, but seemed to tiro in the last strides, and Fordham, by dint of fine riding, managed to land Lady Elizabeth by a head. The SOmersetshire Stakes brought out a wretched field of four, but the finish between Gomera and Douro was a close one, and the favourite won only by a neck. Though the fields were small this afternoon, the racing was good, as heads and necks were quite the order of the day. Steamboat and Black Prince made another of those close finishes, the professional outriding the amateur when it came to close The Nursery Stakes (Elandicap) of 5 sovs each, 3 ft, with 50 added, for two yo:r olds; the winner of the Weston or Badminton Stakes s!b extra; T.Y.C. Last evening the Master and Wardens of the ancient civic guild of Salters entertained a select co.npaoy at dinner at their core )rate hall in St Swithin's-lane. The guests were upwards of 280 ! in number, and included, among others, the Arch . bishop of Armagh, the Bishop of Oxford, Lord Viscount Lifford, Sir 11. H. Bruce, M.P., General William Codrington, Vice-Admiral Codrington, Lieut.-General Sir John Pennefather, Col. Erskine, ' Col. Fraser, Profe&.:or Owen, Mr. Andrew Spottis wood, the Prime Warden of the Dyers' Company. the. Master of the Saddlers' Company, the Master of the Cutlers' Company, the Master of ihe Joiners' Company, the senior Wardens and Clerks of those respective companies, Dr. Carpenter, Mr. Hicks, Mr. Collingridge, and Sergeant Payne. The dinner was served with all the accustomed splendour ob served on such occasions, and the Master of the Company (Mr. Lo Gros Clark) occupied the chair. On the removal of the cloth the Master and Wardens drank to the company in a " loving cup." The cup used on the occasion was made in commemoration of the circumstance of a member of the governing body of the company having attained the age of 100 years. The toast of " Her Majesty the Queen" was then given from the chair, and drunk with the greatest respect, the-Master remarkings.that, if re port spoke truly ; the dispersion of the cloud which recently hang over Europe was due to her Ma jesty's personal influence. The toast of " The Prince and Princess of Wales and the rest of the Royal Family" followed, the Master, in proposing it, tak ing occasion to say that the gentle nature of her Royal Highness the Princess must have been soothed by the universal sympathy expressed in this her adopted land, and he trusted there would be no drawba2k to her speedy recovery. The sentiment was enthusiastically cheere I. The Archbishop of Armagh, Primate of all Ireland, responded to the toast of " The National Church," which was given from the chair, his Grace being a liveryman of the Salters' Company. The Church of Ireland, which he said, he had known from his youth, was never in a state of greater efficiency than at pre ' sent. To the toast of " The Army, the Navy, and the Volunteers," Gen. Codrington, Vice-Admi ral Codrington, and Col. Erskine respectively re sponded. In proposing the toast the Master trusted the Belgian riflemen on the occasion of their forth coming visit would be received in England with all the hospitality which was characteristic of the coun try. Gen. Codrington, in responding to the compli ment on the part of the army, observed that, instead of the army in this country being used, as in many other countries, for political purposes, it was main tained solely for the supremacy of England abroad; and it had alWays been identified with the citizens of England, and with the greatest satisfaction to itself. Vice-Admiral Codrington, the brother of the General, speaking for the navy, gracefully re ferred to tte circumstance of two brothers being invited to reply on behalf of the two principal branches of the defensive branches of the country. There was hardly, he said, a family in the country of any consideration who had not a member of it in the army and another in the kindred service of the navy, and it was suggestive of the insular character of the country, and of the constant need for defen sive preparations, that those who were brothers in fact were often also brothers in arms, and finally, " life's fitful fever o'er," slept side by side often in NEW NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF " ST.

The Derby betting was chiefly remarkable for the rapid advance of Van Amburgh, who, it was reported, has been sold to Mr. Chaplin for 6,500 guineas. Seven to oue was taken at one time about him, but he declined a point at the close. The favourites were firm at 5 to 2, and a noble lord gave the finishing blow to The Hermit by laying 5,000 to 100 against him in the early part of the day.

Libertine cut out the work, attended by Caithness and John Davis, with Wild Moor last to the top turn, when the favourite passed Caithness, and in company with Che valier d'Esprit drew ahead of Libertine at the mile post, the three running in company round the bottom turn. Here Wild Moor headed Caithness, and speedily gained upon the leaders as they made the bend into the straight, when, hanging considerably, he struck one of the pasts, and came heavily to the ground, severely shaking little Butler. At the distance Chevalier d'Esprit appeared to have the best of the favourite, but as they neared the stand Fordham made his effort, and got up in the last stride and won by ahead ; a bad third.

ROYAL SWEDISH. The annual meeting of this company was held yes terday, at the London Tavern ; Mr. W. Hartridge in the chair. Mr. Hillier, the secretary, having read the notice convening the meeting, the report, an abstract of which has appeared in The Sun, was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said it contained ample information as to the condition of the undertaking, so as to enable the shareholders to form their own opinion. The receipts had slightly increased, working ex penses were heavier than usual, owing to the pre valence of bad weather, which had injured the road and rendered it necessary to expend more than usual on its maintenance. They would have had a larger traffic on the line if it were not for the monetary crisis of last year, which had the effect of checking mercantile transactions. The directors had prepared, for the information of the share holders a map of the undertaking in connexion with the State and other lines of railway in Sweden. They had been informed in the last re port that an independent company were promoting a line, 15 English miles in length, from the com pany's line into the mineral district.

They ran thus to the entrance of the cords, where they began to spread, and shortly after Wells brought Blue Gown and followed the leader to the distance, where Grirnston, with Lady Elizabeth at his girth; drew away, and came on clear of their horses, and finished a splendid race home, Fordham just getting up in B e a in Gs .

Douro cut out the work, followed by Gomera, Salpinctes, and Pintail in the order named to the stand, when Captain Day's colt headed the favourite and joined Douro, but when fairly in the back stretch he dropped back and became the absolute last. On reaching the mile post Gomera went to the head of affairs and considerably improved the pace, but when fairly in the bottom she was pulled back, and Pintail was indulged with the lead, which she retained into the straight, when she was beaten, and her place was at once taken by Oomera next the rails, closely pressed by Douro, the pair joining issue at the Stand, and finished an excel lent race home, the former winning cleverly by a neck; a bad third.

Betting-6 to 4 agst Xi, 4 to 1 agst Ostreger, 5 to 1 each agst Cranbury and Commissioner, and 10 to I. each agst Queen of Trumps and Nike. Some delay was occasioned by the vagaries of Cranbury at the post, which, being likely to be continuous, Payne dismounted and waited by the side of his fractious animal like a dismounted dragoon, and vaulting into his saddle at the moment the flag was lowered, he bounded away many lengths in advance, and as he made the turn into the straight was upwards of half a dozen lengths in advance of Queen of Trumps, Commissioner, Nike,. and Xi, Ostreger, who jumped round at the fall of the flag, being left at the post. Payne, who came on without stirrups, kept the old horse going, and won with ridiculous ease by half a 49a011 a Dad WV_ Queu of Trump wa. fourth, ld. each, the chairman took 50 shares, and if the proprietors would take the remainder there would be no difficulty in the matter. the prospects of the company would be much improved by the completion of the line from Arboga to hoping. The estimated cost was £17,777, of which the Go vernment had sabscribcd £8,838. The e.)mpany were to work the line when completed, and a sink ing fund was to be established, by which the share capital would be p Lid off in the course of 15 years,:together with 5 per cent. interest. The Go vßrnment_had made a Qtiv„l..t;„„ +1,„1- ;„ should hereafter purchase the line they were to b 3 allowed the £8,883 they had subscrib3.l towards its construction. To do any good with those lines the company must be able to show that they earned their own living. He had no doubt that they would be able to keep up the payment of the 2s. per obli gation, and add something to it. Oa the comple- don of the new line they would have a mineral traffic from the Uttersburg line over their own line to Orebro, and so on to the State line, via Halsberg and Askersund. The traffic from Nora would go over the other portion of their line on to the Go vernment line. The proposed branch line from Linde to Frovi would bring £3,000 a year traffic on their line. The directors deeply regretted the death of their highly-estimated colleague Mr. S. E. von Hofsten, the late chairman of the Swedish Board, who had rendered eminent services to the company. He believed the line was now in a better position than it ever was before, but it would never realise the profits it was originally estimated to yield. He hoped, after the obligation holders were satisfied, that the preference shareholders would get. some thing. Mr. F. L. AUSTEN seconded the motion for the adoption of the report. He said the Government had made 360 miles of State lines, and that there was not the same inducement now that formerly existed to purchase their line. He thought, how ever, that in about three or four years hence the prospects of the company would much improve, and that the bondholders and preference shareholders would get dividends. The company had subscribed £2,200 towards the Arboga and Doping line, of which £l,lOO had been paid. The inhabitants in the district and the Government had subscribed the rest. The report was unanimously adopted ; the pay ment on and after the Ist of July next at 2s. per obligation on account of arrears of interest due thereon was agreed to ; a n d a vo t e o f th an k s to the chairman and directors concluded the proceedings.

CITY TERMINUS HOTEL. The third ordinary meeting of this company was held yesterday at the Charing-cross Hotel ; the Hon. J. Byng in the chair. The report stated that the capital expenditure during the year had been £91,421, making the total outlay to the end of March last £192,290. The lease of the site of the hotel for 999 years from the South-Eastern Railway Company had been com pleted. The bar at the western side of Cannon street station was opened on the 15th September last, and was now in full operation, and the receipts since that time had fully justified the expectation of the directors. It was hoped that the hotel itself would be opened in the course of a few weeks. The CHAIRMAN, iu moving the adoption of the report, said he felt confident that as soon as the establishment was got into working order the busi ness would be such as would repay the shareholders for their investment. After a short discussion the report was unani mously adopted. The retiring directors, Mr. Byng and Mr. Eborall, were re-elected, and also Messrs. Edwards and Parker, the retiring auditors. The meeting was then made special, and the directors were authorised to borrolv a further sum of £40,000, and a vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the proceedings.

Lord Viscount Lifford replied in appropriate terms to the toast of " The House of Lords," and Sir H. Bruce to that of " The House of Commons." The Lord Bishop of Oxford, in most graceful terms, proposed "The Health of the Mas ter," remarking, by the way, that those ancient guilds still discharged great and important duties in the commonwealth of this country, especially in works of. charity, though- those were not the chiefest of Mer' 11.1111tstrattons. There was, he said, a time when those guilds were essential to the trade of this great city. He believed that, apart from purposes of charity, the maintenanceof a thousand different instances of the high tone of British feeling, the kindly interchange between man and man, and the exercise of the common humanities were prompted by those ancient guilds, and he trusted they might long flourish. The Master proposed "The Visitors," connecting with the toast the name of Professor Owen. After dinner a selection of glees and songs was sung by Mr. Law ler, Mr. Brent, Miss Austin; Miss Eyles, Mr. Field ing, Mr. Wilbye Cooper, and Mr. Carter. Mr. Loveday acted as toastmaster on the occasion. The The company separated shortly after 10 o'clock. The Visit of Belgian Volunteers.

Au important fact he had to communicate was that his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales had consented to become the honorary president of the committee. They had also every reason to believe that they would have the earnest support and co-operation of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge and other members of the royal family. (Cheers.) He (Colonel Lindsay) had also received a communica tion from the Lord Mayor informing him that the council of the corporation were about to meet to determine what form of entertainment the City should offer to our Belgian visitors. The great difficulty they had to contend with was as to the probable number of Belgians who were likely to visit this country in July ; and that WaS a point upon which the Belgians themselves could affurd no accurate information, but it was believed that the number gould be about 1,000. It was proposed to invite the Belgians over about the Bth or 10th of July, and to entertain them for at least a week or 4 10 days. With regard to their arrival in this coun try, he was happy to say that, from a communica tion he had had with the Lords of the Admiralty, he had reason to believe that some of her Majesty's ships would be placed at the disposal of the Belgians to bring them over direct from their own to this country, and indeed to bring them up our river, so that they have an opportunity of witnessing some of our great commercial establishments on its banks.
