CITY NEWS. r SHORE M. CITY, Two o'CLoex. There is very little alteration in the general state of the money market, but the inquiry for commer cial purposes has been slightly diminished. The bullion operations at the Bank of England yesterday comprised the influx of £61,000 in gold and the withdrawal of 20,000 sovereigns. The amount of specie taken out by the Etna, vrhich left yesterday for New York, was £236,119. • Th e Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday presented a dull appearance, and the sales only amounted to about 10,000 bales, of which 2,000 were for export and on speculation, but prices were unchanged. The directors of the Bank of England have not found it necessary at their meeting to-day to Modify their discount regulations. Continued dullness has pervaded the market for Public Securities to-day, and the few transactions recorded for transfer and on speculative account have not caused any movement of importance in the quotations. Consols have been 891 I for money, and 901 1 for the 10 th prox. ; but the market at the last moment has assumed a flatter appearance, the quotations having receded to 90 901 for the account, and the New 3 per Cents. and the Reduced Annui ties remain at 891 894. Bank Stock is steady at 2 30 to 231, and the June Exchequer Bills heavy at 3 3. prem:, and India Bonds realise 18s. dis. At a meeting yesterday of the creditors of the Ifni' and East Riding Bank (Messrs. T. and R. Raikes and Co.), the report submitted by Mr. Jay, of the firm of Quilter and Co., stated the liabilities at £89,025, and the assets at £22,137, showing a probable dividend of about ss. in the pound, pro vided the concern be kept out of bankruptcy, The bank was established in the last century, and within the past 35 years about £300,000 of property be queathed by Mr. R. Raikes, the father of the pre sent partners, has been lost by bad debts, the senior Partner having in 1848 obtained the consent of his eldest son to disentail the landed portion. A com lnittee of inspection was unanimously appointed to wind up the estate under the private arrangement clauses. `Moderate transactions have taken place in Foreign Stocks. Mexican are steady at 234 y ; Russian 5 per Cents. heavy at 103 ; and Pied- Montese 5 per Cents. at 734. Turkish 6 per Cents. realise 721, and the Loan of 1858 581. The 4 per Cent. Guaranteed remain steady at 1001. The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up to this day, are in round figures as under : Great W 1861. 1860.

THE Piacß OF GOLD. 84 11 ! quotation of gold at Paris is a b ou t 2 per mule prem., % I ' he short exchange on London Its 25.32 per £1 sterling. t oParing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 kb ot Nd. per ounce for standard gold, it app ears that gold i s / 1 : t 5 -loths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. Ba d kiVices from Hamburg the price of gold is 4274 per mark, : h e short exchange on London is 13.7/ per £1 sterling. 6 .l 4 o i t it ull gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about '1 , 17 8 Per cent. dearer in London than in Hamb urg. T oe s course of exchange at New York on London for bills at sight is 1051 to 106 per cent., which, when c ompared tk e h l 7 Mint par between the two countries, shows that the l ori l ge is against England. But, after making allowance tat o of interest and charges of transport, the present t Ett e s e it'res little, if any, profit on sending gold to the United Tzt b 3/4 LATE FRACAS AT CREMORNE GARDENS.— rti 4 : 4 Wson will, this evening, ask the Secretary of State ki ng , Department whether it was true that Mr. 1;0 Alarmer was, on the 12th of June , committed to the V ari , 4B : l3 f Correction for ten days, but was liberated by a sen t 'lt from th e Home Office before the expiration of his toi tt regy and contrary to the advice and opinion of the comi ta te ri , magistrate ; and, if so , w h et h er th e S ecre tary of to '°r the Home Department has ony objection to state IsiaZ! house the g roun d s on w hi c h he recommen d e d h er "'V to pzereise her prerogative 91 PgrOut 'OIVBY MARKET AND 'IS DAY), ORDINARY SHARES AND STOCKS. are Railways.

DIVORCE COURT. (Before Sir C. Crsswell and a Special Jury.) eolviPToN V. COMPTON AND THEATRICAL CASE. The hearing of this case was resumed this morning, and the evidence for the defence was proceeded with. Miss Julia Turner, tie first witness called, stated that she was the sister of Mrs. Compton. There were two sis ters besides Mrs. Compton and herself, who were married. One of these was Mrs. Hunt, at whose house Mrs. Compton first met her husband. At the time of her marriage her sister was only 14 years old. She heard nothing of the marriage until the day before it took place, and her parents wore not acquainted with it. After the marriage her sister went to lodgings at South Molton-street. Up to the year 1846 they were not very well off. They were on very fair, bat not affectionate terms. Her sister went on the stage first in 1549 as ballet dancer. In 1851 she had an engagement at Covent Garden, and another in the same year at Vauxhall Gardens. She used always to go to the latter by herself, and an officer used to be with her there frequently. In the winter of 1851 she was engaged in the ballet at the Olympic, and the follow ing year at the Adelphi and the Lyceum. Long before that year, witness, who had been on the stage as a dancer, was acquainted with a gentleman who used to visit her. In that year she went to live at 209, Piccadilly, and the Comptons went with her She occupied the second floor, and they the third floor. Did' not know that Mr. Compton was aware of the connection she had formed ; but he was acquainted with it from 1856. She had discontinued going on the stage, and had no means of her own. Mr. Compton's temper was most sullen and disagreeable. There were very few friends in the habit of visiting, and she remembered them going out together into company only once, and he never took her sister out for a day's pleasure. She and her sister were in the habit of going out to Richmond, Greenwich, and other places, and they were accompanied by the gentleman whom her sister knew. Colonel Baring, the brother of Captain Baring, used also to accompany them, but only in the character of an acquaintance. They used to remain sometimes as late as 11 o'clock at night, and she never heard that Mr. Compton made any inquiry as to where her sister was, and ho appeared quite indifferent about the matter. Her sister, Mrs. Compton, used to dress very expensively, and had handsome jewels, which were not the gift of her husband, and she never heard that he had made any inquiries as to where they came from. Mr. Compton accused her of leaving her sister, but they continued to go out together afterwards. She remembered Mr. and Mrs. Gaston Mur ray coming to supper at the house about two years ago, and Miss Alrdidge was also present. With the exception of Mr. Compton they all supped in her room. She sent Miss Aldridge to wake him, but he would not come down. Miscon duct toga ards her sister was always sullen, and a favourite expression towards herwas—" brainless idiot." Her sister was absent for some time occasionally from London, and her husband only visited her once, and that was when she was at Cambridge. She was acquainted with Captain Baring for about 11 years, and he was present with Colonel Baring on the excursions to which he had referred, and the gentle man whom she mentioned was also present. After her sister's acquaintance with the gentleman was discontinued, about two years ago, Captain Baring's visits to the house in Piccadilly became more freinent. The witness was cross-examined by Mr. Macauley—lt was about 1852 or 1853 when she took her first speaking engagement, and she did not afterwards return to the ballet. She corrected herself with respect to the age of her sister, who was 16 not 14 years old at the time of her mar riage. She remembered some time ago Mr. Compton ob jected to his wife's going to the Isle of Wight, and there was a quarrel. She said that there could be no harm, as they were:to be accompanied by his brother, Mr. John Compton. He did not speak to witness for several days afterwards. Mrs. Stirling, the actress, frequently visited at their lodgings in Piccadilly. She did not know that Mr. Compton interfered with her sister's engagements, which were made without reference to him. When her sister purchased an interest in the St. James's Theatre a considerable portion of her money was lodged in a bank in Mr. Compton's name. Mr. Compton was about twelve years in the Colonial Land and Emi gration Office, and was employed as copying clerk at Mr. Gurney's. Mr. Compton did not always come to see them home from the theatre, and when they came home they used frequently to find Mr. Compton there before, so that his not going for them was not caused by his being detained late at his employment at Mr. Gurney's. Her sister danced for about a fortnight at Vauxhall in 1851. She danced there in consequence of having received an engagement from Mr. Wardell, the proprietor of the Vauxhall Gardens. Mr. Compton was not absent from London at the time, and was aware of her engagement at the gardens. Her sister first formed the acquaintance of the gentleman whom she had already mentioned behind the scenes. The gentleman with whom witness was acquainted used not to go behind the scenes. After Mrs. Compton left her husband she went with Captain Baring on the continent. She did not know of her sister having slept with Captain Baring before the visit to Herne Bay in 1858. When her sister was at Dublin and Liverpool letters constantly passed between her and Captain Baring. In re••examination she said that the speculation in St. James's Theatre was a failure, and her sister lost all her money. Eliza Aldridge, a chorus singer at the Adelphi, said she was acquainted with the respondent for several years. Since 1852 she had been in the habit of visiting Mr. and Mrs. Compton three or four times a week in Piccadilly. She had seen him sulk with her very often, and he con tinued in that temper for nearly a fortnight when she was staying in that house about four or five years ago. She corroborated the evidence of the preceding witness as to his having refused to come down to supper when Mr. and Mrs. Gaston Murray were there, and he said he did not wish to associate with a set of low actors. ___...,. :The case was proceeding when we went to press.] POLICE INTE LLIGENCE, —(This Day.) .._,.._ MARLB OROUGH -STREET. ROBBERY AT CHAMBERS. —Susan Jackson, a young woman, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with the follow ing robbery From the evidence of Mrs. Harriet Andrews, keeper of chambers, at 32&, Duke-street, St. James's, it appeared that on Monday night last one of the gentlemen who occu • pied chambers missed some money from his purse, and in consequence she marked a half sovere i gn and some silver, and placed them i n a p urse w ith other money, and on going to the drawer the previous night where she had deposited the money, she found the marked half sovereign and silver Were gone. She then sent for a constable, and on going to the room of the prisoner, who had lived with her as servant only a week, the marked money was found in the prisoner's own purse. She was then given into custody. In answer to Mr. Ty rw hitt , th e prosecutrix said prisoner had lived with her on a former occasion. The prisoner, who sobbed during the hearing of the case, said she had yielded to a temptation. Mrs. Andrews with, as she was so ved ask that sh e m i g h t b e dealt leniently ery Mr. Tyrwhitt, having made some remarks on the pH soner's conduct, said, b u t f or the request of the prosecutrix, he should have dealt m ore severely with the prisoner. Committed for three months, with h ar d labour. 1 REFUGEES FROM THE NORTHERN STATES. The American war is frightening an immense number of people from the States into Canada. The French Canadians who were settled in the manufacturing state of New England are still coming back, literally by the thousand ; native Americans are pouring into Kingston, Toronto, Hamilton, and London (Canada West), occupying vacant houses, and, with their accustomed energy, starting some manufacture or other kind of business just by way of occupation. In order to keep as many of them here as possible, several of the city corporations are giving them exemption from taxa tion on any new branch of manufacture they start, and the Government has resumed the practice of giving free grants of land to such as will do the settlement duties upon them, which consist of building some kind of a house and clearing at least ten acres within five years.--Canadian News. WESTERN BANK--We understand that the com promise between the liquidators of the West ern B ank and those of the directors who were parties to the agreement submitted to the recent meetings of the shareholders was concluded in Glasgow on Monday. The immediate conse quence of this is the cessation of the actions raised by the liquidators at the instance of the shareholders and by in dividual partners against the directors, and the return in a week or two, of £25 per share to each partner who has paid the calls in full. It is also expected that another re turn, to a similar extent, will afterwards be made. Under the compromise, the directors, with the except i on of Messrs. Willia m an d J am es BaiTd, who are not parties to the arrangement—assign their shares to the bank, numbering 842, and, besides make a payment in cash to the amount of £l62,9oo—making altogether a total contribution equal to £200,000. From this sum, however, there will be deducted £lOO per share, which is to be allowed to Messrs. Inglis and Langdale, "in respect of security acquired by diligence used prior to that at the bank's instance." The legal expenses incurred in the prosecution of the cases of these gentlemen, amount ing to £6,000, are to be paid separately. Those partners also, who acquired their shares subsequent to June, 1857, when the bank was in a perilous condition, are to be allowed £2O per share over and above receiving their pro portion along with the rest of the shareholders. These preferential claims, amounting to £ 25 ,500, leave a sum of nearly £175,000 to be divided among the other and larger body of shareholders, irrespective of the large amount of funds belonging to the bank, arising from the surplus of the call.—Scotsman.

The SPEAKER took the chair at twelve o'clock. NEW WRIT. Oa the motion of Colonel FRENCH, a new writ was ordered for the county of Longford, in the room of Colonel White, who has accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. WINDOW CLEANING BILL. Sir C. BURRELL moved the second reading of this bill, and explained that its object was to prohibit the clean i ing of windows from the outside. Sir F. GOLDSMID moved, as an amendment, that the bill be read a second time that day three months. He con sidered that the:subject was not one for further legislation. The bill, as it stood, carried interference between the em ployer and the employed to a most inconvenient extent. Mr. CAVE said the bill had been introduced from motives of humanity, and he trusted that it would be read a second time, so that any imperfections it contained might be amended in committee. Sir G. LEWIS admitted that the hon. baronet deserved credit for the good intentions which had induced him to introduce the bill, but ho did not think that legislation on the subject was necessary, and should therefore vote against the second reading. It had never been the practice of the legislature to interfere with the labour of adults, although engaged in what were undoubtedly dangerous occupations. Mr. S. ESTCOURT saw nothing in the bill which could not be remedied in committee, and under those circum stances he trusted that the house would consent to read the bill a second time. Mr. MALINS said he had carefully examined the pro visions of the bill, all of which were of a benevolent cha racter. He certainly felt that many measures had been passed by the Legislature which were of a much more mis chievous and objectionable character. After a short discussion the house divided, when the numbers were-- For the second reading Against it 79 Majority.. —4l The bill was accordingly lost. CHURCH RATES ABOLITION BILL. Sir J. THE LAWNY moved the third reading of this bill. He denied that there was any difference of opinion amongst those who had voted for the bill, while amongst Churchmen there was some difference, as appeared from a letter which had recently been published by the Rev. Mr. Bennett, the vicar of Frome. Mr. COLLIER, in seconding the motion, expressed his satisfaction that Sir John Trelawny had not consented to postpone the third reading of his bill. The right hon. gentleman opposite (Mr. S. Estcourt) had submitted a plan for compromise, but ho did not consider that it contained the elements of success. The learned gentleman criticised at some length the proposals recently made by Mr. Estcourt, remarking that if carriedthey would tend more than ever to embarrass the question. So far from being a bill for reliev ing from church rates it was a bill for rendering church rates permanent. He believed that the only way of settling the question was by passing a bill for total abolition. Mr. S. ESTCOURT rose to move as an amendment that the bill be read a third time that day three months. He bore the highest testimony to the fairness and courtesy which he had experienced from the hon. baronet during the recent negotiations. (Hear.) He should not refer to his own plan, inasmuch as it having proved a failure, there would be no use in wearying the house with details about it. By adopting the bill of the honourable baronet they would deprive the people of this country of a right a thousand years old, without proposing any other provision as a substitute. Such a course would tend very materially to interfere with the true constitu tional rights of every community throughout the land. A Church-rate in its origin did not differ from a Highway rate or Poor-rate, or any other rate, so far as the consulta tion and decision of the parishioners were concerned. The bill stated no grievance, and laid down no provision for the future maintenance of churches. The real dispute was, the opponents of this measure were resolved not to give up their constitutional right to make a rate, while ho admitted the principle of personal exemption. He believed if the measure were abandoned there would be no real obstacle to a fair, easy, and equitable adjustment of the question, in volving a personal exemption from Church-rates, and he believed that a large majority of the house was of that opinion. He hoped, notwithstanding the animus that ap peared to exist between the Liberation Society, whose avowed objectwas the destruction of the Church of England, and the great body of Dissenters, this bill would be rejected. (Hear, hear.) The hon. baronet who brought in the bill threatened them that in the event of their not accepting the present bill he should hand them over to the ' secular arm." He did not know what was meant by the secular arm, unless it was the hon. member for Birmingham. (Hear.) But if such was to be the case, he for one should not so much object to the ehange. He looked upon the bill as one of pains and penalties, depriving parties of a right which they might exercise at their pleasure, and one which would enable a number of persons to enjoy the luxury of dissent in secrecy and security. The main object of the bill was not toleration nor the relief of conscience, but to pull down the Church of England from the position which she at present occupied, and therefore he trusted the house would reject it. Mr. H. LEWIS thought that both sides of the house must be thankful to the right honourable gentleman who had addressed the house so admir ably on the subject of a compromise. If church rates had lasted 1,000 years, he thought the time had now come when they ought to be abolished. The Church ought to live in the hearts of the people, which it could not do if these dreadful bickerings were allowed longer to continue. If church rates were abolished he believed a festering sore would be removed, and the greatest good would follow such determination. (Hear.) He was highly in favour of the voluntary principle, from a feeling that true Protestants would never allow their ancient fabrics to fall into decay through want of repair. Some of the noblest and grandest works in the country were the result of that principle, and therefore he should give his vote in favour of the second reading of the bill of the hon, member for Tavistock. Mr. CROSS thought that a majority of the people were in favour of a settlement of this question. (Hear.) He did not think the proposal for the entire, immediate, and un conditional repeal of church rates, or the feeling of no sur render which prevailed with some members, was the proper way to settle the disputed question. He thought that par ties who entertained these opinions were in the minority, and that the true way to satle the question was by personal exemption. He should vote against the second reading of the bill. Sir G. LEWIS said the objection to the payment of church rates was not owing to the pecuniary pressure of the tax, but solely as a pressure on conscience, and he thou g i i t th a t a final settlement of the questio n could not be much longer delayed. The vestry cess of Ireland was analogous, on the ground of conscience. The argument that the abolition of the rate destroyed the nationality of the Church was aban doned in the case of Ireland. While ready to give his vote for the third reading of tors bill—(hear, hear)—he was still prepared to discuss the proposition of a substitute for church rates, as was proposed by the other side. Refer ring to those plans, he contended that personal exemption did away with the principle of a national rate, and admitted that of abolition. He was in favour of neither of the plans that had been submitted to the house. If the bill passed it would leave the law in an unsatisfactory state, and his idea of the settlement of the question was that, in the first in stance, a charge should be made upon those who attended church, upon a list of whom being made out a compulsory rate might be imposed on them. This would meet the ob jection to the " ticketing" of Dissenters. Mr. NEWDEGATE thought the proper way of settling this question was to make the support of the fabric of the national church a charge on property. Mr. BUXTON thought the time had come for an equi table compromise. He thought that the proposal of the right hon. gentleman opposite was a very liberal proposal, and he had no doubt that it would eventually lead to the total abolition of church rates. Mr. BRIGHT said he was heartily tired of these Church rates, es he had taken pert in their discussion for the last 17 years. He could not accept the compromise proposed, but he thought the proposition sho red that some progress had been made in the subject, although we were a slow people, with a slower Parliament. He thought that, in the course of next year, in the event of nothing being done this year, some plan would be devised for the amicable solution of church rates. It was already agreed that only Churchmen ought to pay church rates. Why is it that the different plans do not succeed ? Why, because they don't hit the particular gievance---which was, that they did not get rid of the appearance of legal supremacy in Churchmen over Dissenters in this matter. He also had a plan. (Laughter) He did not offer it as an original one, but as so many persons had offered their plans he did not see why he should be precluded from offering one to the house. His plan was that which had been in operation in Manchester ever since he had known it, viz., to levy an optional rate, which might be levied by the existing machine:y, only abolishing the legal compul sion to pay. If it was proposed that the present bill should pass, with a proviso that it shor'd not come into operation for three or five years, he believed that such a proposition would not be rejected by the advocates of the abolition of church rates. If the house had only taken his advice years ago, what a deal of the unpleasant ness that now existed would have been prevented. He should vote for the third reeling of the bill. After a few observations from Mr. HUBBA.RD, Mr. STANSFELD altogether denied that the operations of the Liberation Society were identi fied with the abolition of church rates, or that the abolition of those rates wewet a step towards the contem plated destruction of the Church. He thought all schemes of compromise vain, mischievous, and dangerous, and so believing, he did think that the Church would soon come to a like conclusion. He Keferred the voluntary system to all the schemes and compromises that had been proposed. Mr. WHITESIDE having commented upon the obser vations of the several speakers that preceded him, said th ere did not appear to be much concession manifested, because they had met the comnromise that had been offered with a direct bill for the tota. abolition of the rate. He thought that the question cor - d only be practically settled by an equitable and just arrangement. The call for a division now became loud and general. The SPEAKER having put the question, the " Ayes" and "Noes" were enunciated with nearly equal volume. The "Noes," however, prevailed. Tb e S D aono. amaared the "Noes" had it. A number of members on the Ministerial side exclaimed " The Ayes' have it;" whereupon the house divided, the "Ayes" proceeding to the right, the "Noes" to the left. As soon as members voted they proceeded to resume their places in the house ; and so great was the anxiety to hear the numbers that every seat and the main entrance up to the bar were crowded. The tellers for both sides having completed their tale and entered the house from opposite lobbies, to hand in the numbers to the clerk at the table, at precisely the same moment—a very unusual circumstance, indicating that the division must have been extremely close—increased the excitement, which had now become very general. When the teller for the " Ayes" (Sir John Trelawny) received the numbers from the clerk to announce them to the 11011,80--4 duty always asginod tp the the majority—the impression was that, of course, the third reading of the bill had been carried, and a loud triumphant shout immediately arose from the Ministerial benches, which for some time prevented the declaration of the numbers. The numbers were— Aye 5........ ........................ 274 Noes ................................ 274 The announcement was received with loud resonant cheers from both sides. The excitement which bad prevailed now became still more intense and eager to know on which side the Speaker would give his casting vote. The SPEAKER, who spoke amid profound silence, said —lf the equality of voices had arisen in an earlier stage of the bill, I should have had no difficulty in the course to be pur sued; because, guided by a rule which has been established by many able men who have preceded me in this chair, I should have desired so to vote as to give the house another opportunity of deciding the question for itself, rather than to have taken that decision into my hands. But that rule does not prevail on the third reading of a bill. We have now reached the third reading of this bill, and I find that the house hesitates, and is unable to express a decision or to give any determination whether this law shall stand or shall be changed. As far as I can collect the opinion of the house from the course of the debate, I think the gene ral opinion of the house is in favour of some settlement of this question different from that which is contained in the bill—(loud Opposition cheers)—and I think I shall best discharge my duty by leaving to the future and deliberate determination of this house the question whether a change in the law should be made, if the house should think right so to do, rather than by taking upon myself the responsi bility of that change. I therefore give my voice with the "Noes." (Loud and continued cheering from the Opposi tion benches.) The third reading of the bill was accordingly negatived. COUNTY VOTERS (SCOTLAND) BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, and con tinued so until the chairman was compelled, in accordance with the standing order, to report progress. The bill was ordered to be proceeded with on Wednesday next. EAST INDIA COUNCIL AND HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE (INDIA) The resolution agreed to on this subject . yesterday was reported to the house. VANSITTART asked whether it was proposed to proceed with the India Civil Service Bill (No. 3) tomorrow. Sir C. WOOD said it was his intention to proceed with bills 1 and 2 to-morrow, but not with No. 3 bill. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the house adjourned. PARLIAMENTARY DIVISION. HOUSE OF COMMONS —JUNE 19. CHURCH RATES ABOLITION BILL. Order for third reading read ; motion made and ql — M77, n proposed, " That the bill bo now read the third time :" Amendment proposed, to leave out the word "now," and at the end of the question to add the words "upon this day three months :"—Question put, " That the word ' now' stand part of the question :"—The house divided ; ayes 274, noes 274 : And tie numbers being equal, Mr. SPEAKER stated that if an equality of voices had arisen at an earlier stage of the Bill, he should have given his vote with the ayes, in order to afford the house a further opportunity of de ciding for itself the merits of the bill ; but at this late stage, he was of opinion that he should best discharge his duty by leaving the question of a change in the law relating to Church-rates to the deliberate determination of the house on some :Laura occasion, instead of now taking upon himself the responsibility of determining a question upon which the judgment of the house itself was undecided; he therefore declared himself with the noes.

After one false start New Brighton took the lead, Narcissus lying next, the others being in a body about two lengths behind Narcissus. Just before coming into the straight the latter got up to New Brighton, and the pair rounded the turn side by side, and in a few strides further they were joined by Little Dick. At the distance Narcissus came away from the two and won in a canter by four lengths ; two lengths separating the second and third, Ladylike was fourth, The Don fifth, Fractious last, beaten off.

When fairly in the straight, Gipsy Girl went to the front, and was joined at the half distance by the favourite. A good race ensued, Flirtation getting the best of it a few strides from the chair, and winning by a head. Harriet finished third, a length from Gipsy Girl, and Sister to Horace was a moderate fourth. The Golborne Park Stakes of 10 sovs each, with 50 added ; for two •yr-olds. Straight half mile.

The flag at last fell to an excellent start; the favourite soon showed in front, how ever, and crossed the old course with a clear lead, followed by Antares and Jung Frau, with Cantiniere and Palermo next. At the distance Discretion was in trouble; and roll ing about, despite Custance's efforts to keep her straight, she gave way just before reaching the stand to Cantiniere, who won in a canter by two lengths. Antares was third, four lengths off, and Jung Frau, who seemed unable to live the pace, finished a length behind Captain Christie's horse.

Lopcatcher, Caller Oui, Cape Flyaway, and Chere Arnie lay in front as the lot neared the old course, when Lopcatcher and Caller Oui took a slight lead. Passing the Stand Caller Oui pulled her way to the front, but running out at the turn, the lead was left with Lopcatcher, who made play at a strong pace all the way round the back side, followed by Desmond, Chere Arnie, Cape Flyaway, and Caller Oui, in the order named. Going up the hill for the turn into the straight Caller Oui passed her horses one by one, and went on right in the wake of Lopcatcher, who showed the way round the turn with a clear lead, Caller OW, Sutton, Chere Arnie, Desmond, and the favourite being next. In a few strides further Lopcatcher and Caller Oui compounded and were passed by Cape Flyaway and Sutton. At the distance Cape Flyaway obtained the lead, and, coming on by him self, won very cleverly by a length.
