WINTER SEASON, 1855. THE GREAT WIZARD OF THE NORTH begs moot respectfully to announce that this favourite place of amusement will OPEN on MONDAY, Sept. 3d, under new au spices, and with a series of Extraordinary Performances. As every thing the Wizard lays his hand on necessarily undergoes some startling change, the Lyceum Theatre will, by a wave of his Magic Wan , i, be instantly transformed into the Wizard's Psycompaitheum : while the cl 'es of Enterta'nmenti presented within its walls will be as unlike anyth'ng that has been seen before as it is rosoible to con ceive. Preparations have been in progress for many months past to produce these Entertainments on e scale of magnitude and excellence worthy of the Wizard's fame and , poxilarity. His assistant spirits have beeu ordered to spare no expense in the compounding of their spells; and the result it is hoped,will he an Entertainment which, for " startling effects," will far tstrip the wildest French melo drama; with "rapid changes" ni Furprising than an actor's play ing twenty parts, in twenty di gent dresses; with tricks more wonderful than those of an adulterating tradesman : and " trans formations" which would make theralchemists of old expire with envy. PROFESSOR ANDERSON ,(the Great Wizard of the North) having completed the entire circuit of the globe, and visited almost every part of Europe, Am Tice, 'lndia, and Australia, attended everywhere with a degree of success unexampled, he believes, in the career of aDV individual aspiring the titles of a CO , M , politan artiste, will give his extraordinary DELASSEMENS MAGIQUES in the above Theatre for a limited period, nreparatory to his final retirement from punlic life. No exertion will be spared on his part to secure the continuance of the public favour which he hag hitherto enjoyed wherever he has presented himself. On the Continent from Petersburg to Madrid; in America, from Canada to Me-ico, and from New York to San Francisco; everywhere, in short, hive the Wizard's marvels succeeded most effectually in "astonishing the natives" of the various countries visited. His performances have been prtroni. ed "y audiences amounting in the ag,regate to very many_ millions ; and he is the only British Professor of his art who, in addition to having been honoured by all the Courts of Europe, has also been commanded to perfoi'm before her Majesty the QUEEN: Without attempting to exalt the Professor's art beyond its due deserts, let it suffice to say it is his art. He has devoted himself for years tO the perfecting it, and rend ring it more flt'ed to amuse and entertain the public.- That he has been successful in his efforts he thinks, from what he has said, is pretty certain ; indeed a life time spent in diligent pur-nit of excellence in any art, what,c-er it maybe, can scarcely fail in producing some degree of efficiency. It is the result of this long study that will he presented at the Lyceum Theatre. Feats in Modern Magic hitherto unattempted Will be exhibited by the mid of apparatus outrivalllng any that has been previously constructed. Anoth r feature in Professor Anderson's Delassemens Magiques will be a complete disclosure of son of the principal impostures of the age, with illustrations of the mechanism, mystery, and mischief of •Ipirit-rapping, Table-turning, Clairvoyance, and other delusions, to be classed generally tinder the now popular head of the " sell " theory. In the Wizard's 'performances there will be found mirth, for those who seek merriment ; mystery, for those who fancy the mysterious ; paradoxes, for the lovers of the paradosjeal ; wonders, for those who like the wonderful ; startling surprises, 'or those eager for excitement. There will be science for the sage, wisdom for the philosopher, art for the artistic, and cheerfulness for all. It will be the Professor's object. in fact, to produce a play each night in which the audience themselves shall be the actors, and which, whatever the plot may be, hall certainly be free from the fault of many mo dern dramas —the fault of lacking incident or exciting situations and unexpected denouemens. Such will be the general character of the Wizard's Banquet of Wonders. It will be an ordinary to which he will welcome all. The bill of fare will shortly be published in the programme now preparing; and Professor Anderson, the carver of the feast, will spare no effort to please the t-,ste of every guest who may honour his table with his presence—cutting it fat or lean as each may wish. On MONPAT, Sentember 33, and every night during the week, PRnFESSOR ANDERSON, THE GREAT WIZARD OF THE NORTH, will have the honour of presenting his new series of DELASSF:MENA NIAGIQUES, or the Wonders of the Ancient Magi, and the most ren ~ r neci of Modern Magicians. The Great Wizard will select the most recherché experiments of his various programmes—from that submitted by him to her Majesty, at Bal moral, to that which obtained the aliproval of the President of the United States ; together with sp'ciai novel feats, invented express y for the occasion, and embracing his extraordinary and amusing trationa of Spirit-Rapping. The .Eptertainment wll consist of Twelve Acts, divided into tw parisond arra ,, ged so that the in terest shall dramatically accumulate to its final denouement in the twelfth act. Ac!

M.D. 87, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON. meter of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of aurgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Societc Vcentiat., of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, an} -tiler class of disease known to modern pathologists. ' Its perusal is •articularly recommended to persons entertairing secret doubts of taeir physioal' condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded tao health, happiness, and privileges to which every human bring is e sitled It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are ,rinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without acurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed le heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties try be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, .nd how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all, tr , at there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional . erangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. ^he Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive 1' actice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have ► fortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant emlirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place faith in their pretensions.

CAIIP BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, Aug. 20.—Ths fire which opened at daybreak on Friday continued the whole of Saturday and yesterday, but was slackened this morning by order. I should not wonder if it were to be againin creased to-night in order to favour the progress -of the French works. This has already been considerable, and the French seem duly sensible of the service our can nonade has rendered them. It has enabled them, I heard a French officer say on Saturday evening, to do in four hours what they previously could not have done in 15 days. I believe that the three days' fire has enabled them to do what they otherwise would proLably never have done. Their foremost parallel, which had been begun at the two ends could not be completed, owing to its near proximity to the Malakhoff. As soon as a gabion was put up a storm of projectiles was hurled against, it and the working party., This difficulty bas now been sorrnour.ted, and the extremities are connected. I un derstand that good progress was made last night, and that they are enlarging the trench so as to admit of its con tamping more men. Opinions are divided as to the plan of attack that will be observed. Some think that with out pushing their works beyond the point at which they have now arrived: the French will give the assault; and a report is prevalent in our camp that a British division (the Light, it is rumoured) will share with thein the peril and honour. Others suppose that they will sap up to the Malakhoff itself, blow up the parapet, and assault amid the confusion consequent on the explosion, All this is mere conjecture. As far as I have bad oppor tunity of observii.v, I think the French incline to the hitter plan. On the other band, the distance" is nom" ab greatly reduced—is, indeed, so very short—between the French trenches and the Russian defence, that a vi gorous assault ought to succeed, unless, indeed, the more desponding anticipations that I have heard indulged in, as to the impregnability of the internal defences of the Malakhoff, should be even more than realised. At the same time we must not be misled as to the probable amount of resistance by the fact that, since the first day of the bornbardrnent,the Russian fire from the Malakhoff, and, indeed, from all parts of their line, has been weak, as if their guns had been silenced by ours, and that the works ap pear to have suffered considerable damage. Mote though the Malakhoff may be it would not be surprising if, were we to assault to-day, our storming parties should find that every gun could still speak loud enough. Thp dearly bought experience of the 18th of June must not he thrown away. On the other hand, our fire has been both severe and well directed. That of the French has been partial, and much le's strong ; and this has excited a good deal of comment and conjecture, some saying that there had been a misunderstanding, and that the French did not know they were expected to back us with their batteries. It is improbable, however, that there has been any mistake. Persons there may be— perhaps themselves too hasty and impetuous—disposed to tax General Simpson with over-great deliberation; but he is generally admitted to be a safe man, not likely to fall into misunderstandings, and one who would be quite sure of what was to be done before attempting to do it. He certainly keeps his own counsel extremely well, and nothing has transpired of the plan which it is presumed be has for serious operations at a very early date. Our loss during the bombardment has not been heavy. It was incurred chiefly on Friday, since which day no officers have been hit to the best of my knowledge, and not many men. For hours together the Russian fire has been very slack, an occasional shot here and there. They seem to consider it a point of honour to go off in great style on the first day, after which they run their guns behind the parapets, cover them with sandbags, and allow us to blaze away with little reply. There are reports that their men fight very unwillingly, and that there is great difficulty in getting them forward. This did not appear to be the case with those who fought the other day at the Tchernaya, but they were double primed with brandy, and moreover comprised divisions that had just arrived. Many of the battalions who attacked that day had not been into Sebastopol at all. So at least we learn from the prisoners. That those who have long been defending the place should be discouraged would not be surprising, but the chief evidence we' have of it is that of a Polish officer, who came over a day or two ago. Some of the prisoners taken at the Tchernaya and said to' have inquired what hail been the result of the attack on our trenches, and, on hearing that none had been made, to have expressed their surprise, as one had been intended simultaneously with that upon our right on the 16th inst. It is believed, or supposed, that the unwillingness of the troops prevented the intended co-operation to be afforded in the shape of a sortie against our right and left attack. All these con jectures, suppositions, and beliefs, must' be taken for what they may be worth, which is often little enough. It would not be at all surprising, certainly, if the Rus sians were discouraged, heartily wearied of their pro tracted defence, in which they gain no ground nor have the least chance of gaining any, for our position is really impregnable, and so they must begin to consider it, after the severe repulse of their recent attack on what probably they considered one of its weakest points. To return, however, to our own loss in the three days' bom bardment. The information I have obtained convinces me that it does not exceed 200, or, at mo,t, 250 men hors de combat beyond the usual average daily loss in the trenches. This is very little, especially if we bear in mind, that the Russian fire on the first day was really ex tremely violent. As to other damage, one or two batteries of our left attack suffered a little, as I told you in my last ; our right scarcely anything. As regards the enemy, we may reasonably hope, although we do not too confidently reckon, that we have punished him pretty severely. Although earthworks take a deal of hammering before they show its marks, both the Redan and Malakhoff have a very battered appearance. We have of course no means of ascertaining the Russian loss of men. It is believed they sustained a very considerable one on Saturday night. Their fire became extremely brisk on that evening. Our people. kept up the musketry against the Malakhoff to protect the French workmen, and shells and bouquets of shells were flying all along the lines from right to left—very pretty to look at, but un pleasant to meet. The night was dark, and the only light save that of the burning fuses which crossed each other in curves against the black sky, and that of the flashes from the rifles proceeded from some carcasses which the French threw from time to time in order to see what they were about. The Russians were nume rous in the Redan, intending a sortie, and I believe some of them did venture out, but they were received with such volleys from the Quarries that they quickly retired, and then our batteries threw into the Redan a shower of shells, which innst have bad a murderous effect among the throng of Muscovites. The affair was brief ; the volleys of musketry were very sharp indeed, and were taken up, more or less, along the whole line. There was also extremely heavy firing on the left. Altogether the evening was an exciting one, and the consumption of ammunition must have been considerable. At sunset on Saturday evening a party of the Naval Brigade, commando.] by Lieutenant Gough, dragged a 6 8-pounder up to No. 11 battery left attack. Jack hauled away with his usual good-will and alacrity. The Russians fired at him as he went up, but he reached the battery without casualty, and the gun was put in posi tion. The next morning trial was made of it in the pre sence of Captain Keppel, and it was found to bear per fectly on the mole-head and on the bridge across the Creek. The mole-head is a sort of landing-place at the left-hand corner of the creek, where it enters the main harbour, and is used by the Russians to land their stores from the opposite side. They will be obliged to land them elsewhere in future. I understand that the Russians have been observed moving about the heights beyond the valley of the Tchernya, and it would not be surprising if another at tempt were to he made ere long. They will find us all prepared—the Engli s h army full of fight, the French and Sardinans elated with their recent triumph, and the list animated with that additional confidence which the cm:- scionsuess of having behaved gallantly and proved themselves wnrthy of their allies cannot fail to' give them. The conviction that we shall render a very handsome account of the Russians whenever they think fit to attack us does not prevent our taking proper precaution, and preparing for their reeeption. The whole of the French Imperial Guard,. which was awa y to the left, where it was of no use, was yesterday marched over to this plateau, and encamped beyond the French semaphore, and all along the slightly e l eva t e d ridge that overlooks the valley of, the Tchernaya. I do not know the numerical strength of either the infantry or artillery of the Guard, but they form a very large body of men, and fine-looking soldiers they are. There are nine regiments of infantry and some battalions of Chasseurs, which compose a strong force ; but I did not see them march up, and opinions vary so much here that even some French officers whom I asked would not venture an estimate of their numbers. I walked round the edge of the plateau yesterday afternoon, and they were all snugly established, had got up their kitchens, composed of a few fragments of rock and big stones, and while some strolled about picking up the scanty sticks and rots for fuel others skimmed the marmites, some of which emitted an extremely savoury odour. The French are certainly famous fellows for settling themselves down in an instant and making themselves at home wherever they may be placed. The vacancy occasioned by the death of Commander Hammet. of the Albion, is filled up, I understand, by the promotion of Lieut. Pasley, of the Royal Albert, who is thus put over the beads of at least five or six lieutenants of the Naval Brigade, lieutenants of 10 years' standing, or even more, and who have now passed eight months in the trenches and been in four bombardments. This needs no comment from me ; but it may be thought, to require explanation from ,those who ordain and sanc tion a system of preference which, to persons uninitiated in the mysteries of naval promotion, must seem unjust. In one point of view, it is an invidious task to draw public attention to such cases as this ; but it should al ways be understood that no slur is inter.ded to be cast on the person preferred. Lieutenant Pasley may he a most meritorious officer, but one naturally feels curious to become acquainted with the services that entitle him to walk over his seniors, who for two-thirds of a year have been engaged in actual and severe warfare, who have been decimated by Russian shot, and have taken their full Share of hardsbipsipmhably unparalleled in the history of war since the campaign of 1812.

They are to repair the railway ("re-inake" it), .anii 'make a road from head quarters to Balaklava. Sir Harry Jones has also ordered that they should take the direCtion of the supply of water for the camp. It if% to be hoped they will find means of increasing it, and also of causing a portion of it to flow to an easier distance than that at which some of us are compelled to seek it. Sir Harry Jones has been suffering severely from sciatica, but is now • much better. AUGUST 21. Yesterday afternoon, between five and six o'clock ; the vi hole of the French batteries on the left end dened opened a furious 'fire, .to which the Russians warmly replied. General Pelissier. in his open carriage, with his aides-de-carnp and usnal Hussar escort, passed through the English cFmp and went up to Cathcart's hill. The fire lagred - Until nightfall, and then diminished. During the night there was not much firing. At . mid night it had almost ceased, and one saw but an occasional shell in the air. At 2 a.m.i orders came for our army to turn out. This was rapidly done ; the troops moved to the front, to their usual positions in suokoases, and remained there until daylight. ,It is now very early in the morning, and I have rtygyblmn, q.ble.to.iugoortaio., the motivea.nf4be der4e, appears wow, that the French, Urned nut befere we had erders to do so, and that then a line of telegraphic lighta was observed in the Russian positions, commencing at Sebastopol and run •ning along the Inkermann heights. It is said that the French got under arms in consequence of observing a Russian force in motion on the heights in question. Various rumours are abroad as to its object, but none that appear to me worth repeating. From the pre sent aspect of affairs, and notably from the change of place of the Imperial Guard, it seems probable that the French will operate particularly on the Tchernaya line, where they the other day achieved so brilliant a success, and that the English will form the main force to be opposed to an attack proceeding from the town. The result of the action of the Tchernaya ought to con vince the Russian commanders that it is in vain for them to assume the aggressive ; but the arrival of fresh troops doubtless inspires them with new hopes. Some believe that, disheartened by the protracted siege, and hopeless of the Allies desisting from it, they are likely to stake •everything on a desperate coup. To this is to be op, posed the opinions of the less sanguine, who doubt that the besieged suffer so ranch, in various ways, as has been reported, who think that their determination is unshaken, and the Malakhoff not to be taken. Between the two opinions it is difficult to steer a iniadle course. 12 O'CLOCK. The object of the French in opening fire on the left is still a mystery in our camp, even in very high quarters. 'th respect to the turn-out this morning, it appe a rs that the French gave us warning. The Rus sians were se e n assembling towards the right, apparently with a vie v to attacking the i-ame positions from which they were repulsed on the 16th. They threw up some rocket s as signals, and retired. It is to be presumed that they expected to catch us napping, and, on finding therns.-lees mistaken, thought proper to abandon their design. The enemy continues to throw shot at our camp, but they fall short or on the outskirts, and the damage they do is so trifling as not to be worth the ammunition ex pended. YesterdaY evening, during the firing on the left, they threw up several to Cathcart's-hill. They are fired from an immense distance (the Garden Battery, it is believed), and of course at a great elevation.

Although the meetings celebrated last Week were minor character, yet certain - 1 incidents connected them will cause them to be long remembered. The tropOliian "little go gathering" at Egham was espec distinguished for the " sensations" which it created. paper all interest in the leading event--the Surrey and Middlesex Stakes—teemed destroyed, for the race ap peared to be virtually reduced to a match between Ful beck and Winkfield. The old 'un was the favourite, ,but the Fulbeck party having persuaded Mr. E. It. Clark to start Mr. Sykes to make the running were full of hope and confidence. Well might they exclaim, " Save us from our friends," for Mr. Sykes gave tliem a turn they little ex p ec t e d. I n f act, be did his work too well ; his rider slipped his stirrup leather, and losing all control over his horse, and with much difficulty preserving his seat •.t,n the saddle, made but : c fa lu ul m t sy efforts thatFu to ibe pu ckdi lup, d l not was not Anlore c g er la ta ri inly his ng4n d defiant case of roping was never witnessed at the most leather-flapping meeting. This fact admits of no dis guise, and it cannot be either extenuated or explained away by the accommodating arrangements which were made prior to the race. The starting of horses for the express purpose of losing is a most dishonest proceeding, and cannot be defended on any grounds. Much blame was heaped on Preece, the rider of Mr. Sykes, but he perhaps was the least culpable party concerned ; he endeavoured to carry out his master's orders, for a jockey in his position could not, and dared not, act honestly, if by so doing he cTi obeyed the commands of his employers. The chagrin and disappointment of the owner of Mr. Sykes in this exposing his horse and directing attention to his Cesarewitch chance, were most ludicrously displayed. Under the circumstances, however, he had the discre tion to adopt the only honourable course open to hind he decided upon running the dead heat off, and in order that the publie might have faith in his good intentions, be engaged Wells • to'ride Mn Sykes. The deciding beat was run after the last ra4t on Thursday. 4 to 1 was betted on Mr. Sykes, who won in a canter. Thus were the backers of Fulbeck puin a hole out of which there was no possibility of gettiig. Some surprise, too, was occasioned by the defeat of Wandering Willie, by two dark fillies. Sensation number one was, however, caused by the Surrey and Middlesex stakes, and sensation number two was created by the race for her Majesty's Plate. Old Rata plan was sent to Egharn purposely to carry off the " Guineas," and it was deemed that his presence would frighten all opponents from the lists. When the saddling bell was rung, however, three competitors were brought out in battle array against him, Winkfield, Wait-a-while, and Pyrois. An application was made for Pyrois to make relining for Rataplan, but the persons who had the management of the "old horse "refused to stand a " fiver" for the accommodation, and determined to let Rataplan cut out his own work. In the meanwhile speculation in the "ring" was not very brisk, but all sorts of prices, from 10 to 1 up to 20 to 1 were betted on Rataplan, the layers fancying they were finding money, and the takers believing that Rataplan could not go on running and winning for ever. The horses started, old Rataplan in his "shoes," which, as he galloped along, flashed in the qun. The race was watched with little curiosity, anti ever and anon ironical shouts were roused of " Rataplan's beat," "Rataplan's tumbled down." These shouts were kept up at in tervals until the horses had reached the distance, when Winkfield was seen alongside of Rataplan, who laid back his ears in a most eminoua manner, The layers were silenced and began to look dismayed, whilst the fielders shouted with earnestness and excitement for Winkfield. From the half distance the race was not for an instant in doubt. Rataplan ran " cunning" and re fused to make a finishing effort, aid Winkfield beat him easily by a length The starter at Derby seems to have made a " mull" of his attempt to get the horses away forthe Chesterfield Plate. Stork was backed at sto 4, whilst 2 to 1 was taken about Flyaway. Six went to the post, and several failures were made before they were started. When the ' signal was finally given, "Tiny Wells" on Leamington was nearly twenty lengths ahea(Wand, making the best use of his advantage, beat the fayourite by a length and a half. The jockeys who rode in the race expressed their annoyance at the badness of the start in no measured terms of indignation. i" "A Lawyer" has written to Bell's Life respecting the Clementina colt, and the pentl.ing disqualification of that animal for the St. Leger. He contends that the decision delivered by the stewards at York and Good wood is erroneous, but be takes only a lawyer's view of the matter. The very clause, however, under which race meetings are held, and which is, I think, intro duced into the conditions at Doncaster, stating that all disputes are to be settled by the stewards, or whom they may appoint, and their decision to be final, gives to the stewards absolute authority, and will prevent, whether right or wrong, a court of law from reversing their de cision. In the case of the Clementina colt, however, it is yet to he proved whether the " turf authorities" acting in the matter are wrong. The sporting " Lawyer" cer tainly does not convict them of an err,r of judgment. The handicaps for the Cesare witch and Cambridgeshire stakes were published at the beginning of the past week. They were examined with no little eagerness and curio- EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL ORDER. llea , l•quarters before Sebastopol, Aug. 20, 1866. No. 1. The great want of . consideration shown by officers and tither persons attached to this army in visit ing the scene of a recent action, and plundering the dead, or purchasing plunder from others, has been the subject of grave remonstrance on the part of our allies. All property whatever on the field belongs to the victorious nation ;to appropriate anything is dishonest—to pur chase from those who have done so is to encourage their dishonesty, and to share their guilt. The commander of the forces hopes that this caution will be sufficient to deter those to whom it is addressed from a repetition of such thoughtless conduct. Followers of the army are reminded that they are amenable. to its rules and discip line. The police and provosts will in future receive orders to punish offenders on these occasions in the most summary manner. _ No. 2.

Taylor, Royal Artillery, to sth September, 1855; of a with (me ially On PRICE 4D.: STAMPED SD• say ; and at first many persons v were disposed to find fault with _them, some takitig exception to the seeming partiality bestowed upon Messrs. Payne and Greville's " lot," others pretending to' indi cate discrepancies with reference to certain animals. Fault finding and grumbling is the, characteristic of Englishmen, and turfites seem to think that the ruling maxim by which their affairs are regulated is " do one another." This fancy renders them frequently dissatisfied without a cause. The two Autumn Handicaps under notice are certainly cred:table specimens of the art ; they are framed by the stewards of the Jockey Club, who, al though they may make erroneous calculations, are never suspected of premeditated and wilful partiality. For the Cesarewitch, Elvetston, weighted at sst. 51b., is an i ce . rnense favourite. He belongs to John Scott's stable, and has it is said been specially reserved fur this race. S-ythian is much fancied and may occupy a prominent position in the betting, but I am in expectation of seeing his owner's interest more worthily repre sented by Balrownie. Mortimer (by Alarm) who • was backed somewhat heavily prior to the publication of the weights, is in at Est. 61b. ; and, if report be true, he may he beard of to advantage. Mr. Tom Parr wills doubtiess have a favourite--whether Robgill or Sancebox, however, will be the intended animal I am not yet able to determine. After the announcement of the accept ances I shall take an early opportunity of discussing the comparative chances for both Cambridgeshire and C, witch. - Expectations of the WaWick Meeting are always in dulged with peculiar satisfaction. The programme in variably promises many "good things" for the backers of horses, whilst book-makers do not always find their interest neglected. Mr. Merry has as usual ", cooked" several nice light and flattering handicap , , and this very circumstance renders it puzzling, unless one is let into the secret, to select the probable winners. No com plaints are likely to be heard relative to a scarcity of sport, for the racing will be ample enough. Master Horton, 4 yrs, 6st 131 b, and Flageolet, 3 yrs, Gst 12ib, certainly are entitled to consideration for the Shorts Handicap, and, should they start, he will be a bold man who " stands against them." So much mystery and uncertainty surrounds the.pro bable starters for the Leamington Stakes that I scarcely know where to look for the winner. The betting would indicate that neither Little Harry nor Mishap will go to the post, so it would be merely a waste of time to dis cuss their chances. King of Trumps, with his 51bs. extra, has only i'st. 12Ibs. to carry, and, despite the prevalent' opinion that he cannot stay, I shalt expect to see him in the first flight of competitors at the finish if too much use be not made of him early in the race. Goorkah has been backed, but whether he will be "wanted" or not it is impossible to determine. The same remark applies to Indian Warrior, who shall cer tainly not be slighted by me should he put in an appear ance. I should be inclined to regard Pantomime with unqualified partiality if be belonged to any one else be sides Mr. Magehms. Sultan is likely to represent the Woodyates stable, and his running for the Goodwood Stakes proved that he possessed much racing merit. The Chicken was introduced with some force into the betting on Saturday, and lie may prove "cock of the walk" for this event. Unless Shoreham's running at Liverpool was a "mistake," he can have only a remote chance. Many people believe that it was a mistake ; and, fancying that his party have had their hopes of carrying off the Cesarewitch crushed by weight, they expect Shoreham to come off with flying colours to-morrow. Imogene is worthy of consi deration, for proofs have been afforded that she can both gallop and stay. Could I calculate with certainty upon a start I should select Pantomime to do the trick, but doubts'which at present exist in my mind induce me to place faith in the pretensions of Sultan and Shoreham. Should an outsider, however, be destined to pull through King of Trumps may, after all, be the card to win with. At any late I shall reserve him for a " cock boat." Notwithstanding Flyaway's recent queer running I shall rely upon her ability to win the Castle Park Stakes. Her most dangerous opponent will be The British Remedy. For the Borough Handicap I shall select Diego and Mr. Huffain. If Wild Dayrell starts for the Warwick Cup, there will be few people to " stand the field." In his absence I shall place confidence in Rataplan, despite hl3 Egham performance. The Avon Stakes I assign to Bonner and Buxom. For the Handicap Plate I shall select Miss Hatch and Conspiracy. Should Mr. Sykes start for the County Plate I shall be inclined to couple him with King of Trumps to represent my interest. In his absence, how ever, I shall substitute Speed the Plough. For the Welter Cup my fancy points to Caliph and Master Horton. lanthe, Orson, and Jenny Wren shall do battle for me for the Town Plate. Sept. 3. A FRESH MAN.

We have much pleasure in noticing this work ; all the incidents connected with it are of a satisfactory cha racter. It suggested itself to the Earl of Derby that the interview between Hotspur after the battle and the fan tastic lord, as related by Shakspere, might be success fully treated in sculpture, and wishing to give a prize fir the Yoik races, be offered 3001. for the best mo delled illustration of the Shakesperian episode, to be executed in solid silver. Various manufacturers in silver were applied to. as being, perhaps, better acquainted than his lordship with the artist world. Amongst these a competition was entered into for the production of " the prize plate " After a careful inspection of the different models produced on the occasion, that of Mr. Alfred Brown, employed by Mesirs. Mint and Roskell, re ceived the meed of praise, and was consequently se lected as the one to be executed in the precious metal. Of the rival productions we can say nothing, not bay ing had an opportunity of inspecting them. We feel, however, that choice has in this instance been made a work of considerable merit. The general composition recommends itself at once by gracefulness of outline. The principal view presents a charger seen in profile, against which the jaded Hotspur leans, fix ing a supremely contemptuous look upon the lordly fop, who is represented attitudinising before the tired soldier ; a standard bearer attends the victorious chiefs, while in front a youthful squire, in a stooping position, appears to be engaged in loosening some portion ~ f the toil-worn chief's attire. These four figures, backed by the steed—Hotspur, in the centre, being very judiciously a little raised above the rest—form the principal group, immediately behind which, and a little to the left, are two soldiers bearing off the field one of the slain. These latter are most artistically introduced, inasmuch as they tend to give massiveness and substance to the whole composition, and by means of their bending attitudes, combined with the lowing lines of the couching figure in front, contrast and harmonise admirably with the three erect figures of the principal group. A lofty banner grasped by the standard-bearer completes the pyramidal form of the composition, giving to the latter dignity as well as height. Much thoughtfulness has been be stowed upon the subject of costume, each figure being accoutred in a manner suitable to the character im personated. All the features composing this work are in full relief. The figures are 13 inches high ; the total height of the prize plate from the ground to the top of the banner is 1 feet, being 2 feet wide by about 1 foot in depth. The whole is placed upon a well-designed ebony pedestal. Although it has been stated that the sum of 3001. has been paid for this work, it must not be inferred that this is its real value. No one in the slightest degree acquainted with such matters but would gee at a glance that the contractors for the work have more than fulfilled their contract ; they have, in this instance, al lowed their artistic views to range beyond the limits of pecuniary consideration, sacrificing the latter to a nobler ambition. It is this evidence of liberality on the part of the manufacturers with respect to this undertaking, which, as well as the talent displayed in the work itself, excites admiration. Having lately had to remark upon the selfish, impolitic scheme of concealing the artist's name on these occasions, we are disposed to lay stress upon the wise a n d lib era l sys t em adopted _ n. - by this firm, of op en ly announc i ng th e name in- the artist to whos e t a l en t th e y stand debted.
