DONCASTER RACES.-(CONCLUDZD.) LAST DAY-FRIDAY. THE ST. LEGER STAKES. In our last we promised a fuller account of the running of this interesting race, and we now insert it. There was but one false ttart, and when they went off in earnest the scene that present ed itself was beautiful. Thirty horses that you might have covered -with a sheet, and the brilliant rays of the sun glittering on the colours of their Jockies, was dazzling beyond description. The general exclamation of" they're off,' was followed by the silence of death, and the intense interest of the race was visible in every countenance as the horses appeared to float up the lull. Dauntless tried to make the running but stopped at the hill, Falcon, Addy, Actmon, and Fleur-de-Lis, then being in front, and Falcon and Addy keeping up the running, and Memnon and Alderman always lying up with their horses. At the turn on the hill, Redgauntlet was bored over a post, broke it off, tare his plate off, and very much injured his foot—at the same time falling on his kneeS and head, he could not recover himself un til nearly all the others had passed him. Notwithstanding this accident he got up to Memnon at the Red House, and to this the great speculators on Memnon may feel much indebted for their winnings—fbr at the moment Redgauntlet came up, Addy, Fal con, Actmon, and Fleur-de-Lis, were all locked together. Scott seeing Redgauntlet coming, pulled a little to the right to get a good place, and go with him ; at this instant, Fleur-de-Lis fell, and Memnon must hare gone right over her had it not been for this unforeseen occurrence. Addy was knocked nearly down in the scranille. The boy who rode Fleur-de-Lis, almost senseless by the fall, jumped up like a stunned cock ; and, strange to say, though again knocked down, and rode over by the following horses, received no injury. This accident might have been fatal to all the leading horses. Homer never ap peared in front. After the accident, Memnon took his place, and it was 100 to 1 on him ; Alderman being second, but with out a chance ; indeed, it never was a race. Cleveland, alias the ould horse, ran about a quarter of a mile in the ruck, when he declined ; and the people who hacked the ould horse had the gratification of seeing him walk in the very last.— He could not raise a gallop. Redgauntlet is not yet fit to travel. Memnon is now at Raby Castle, anti Lord Darlington has given permission to Messrs. Sherridown, of Doncaster, to take Ms portrait for publication. • The Races conclude this day, after a week of admirable sport ; and we are satisfied that all who were present will agree with us that it has been the most splendid of the year, and the greatest that has ever been held in Yorkshire, or perhaps in the kingdom. In concluding our report, we feel ourselves bound to do jus tice to the urbanity and liberal conduct of the Stewards, which have been the theme of general admiration. A tribute of praise is also due to the Judge, Mr. Lockwood, whose unwearied atten tion to the arrangement of the races, and precision in deciding them, gave unqualified satisfaction. in addition to the visitors we have already given, are the fol lowing :—Hon.

The first heat was well contested between Canteen and Octa vine, and won with difficulty ; the second and third heat rested between Barytes and Canteen ; the latter, however, was spoilt by the severe running he had made before, and was beat easily by I ;ary tes. 'hi►e Race-course to-day was not so well attended as yester day, owing to great numbers having departed. It was admi rably kept by Mr. Lockwood, Clerk of the Course, who has seen every heat run during the last fifty years. Prince Esterhazy is to continue to represent the Emperor of Austria at the British Court, although his successor had actually been named, and we behove the Prince himself had engaged a large hotel in Paris, as Ambassador from Austria to Charles the Tenth. His Majesty George the Fourth, with whom Prince Esterhazy is a great favourite, is reported to have expressed a wish at the German Court, that his Excellency should continue Ambassador to England.—(Morning Chronicle.) Bow-smErr. (This Day.)—This morning George Davies was brought before Sir RICHARD RIRNIE, charged with entering the dwelling-house of Mr. Yeomans, of Turnham-Green, and with three other persons, stealing therein several articles of jewellery. The family were all from home, and the thieves took their time in ransacking the house, they broke open seven locks, and escaped the back way through the garden.—Ann Bolden had observed• four men watching the house, for an hour before church time; saw two go into the house (the prisoner one of then) and two kept watch.—" I gave the alarm, and the prisoner was seized by a young man, servant to Mr. Williams of Turnham-Green." lluntly, one of the Bow-street Patrols, searched the prisoner, and found upon him a gold chain and other articles identified as the pro perty of Mr. Yeomans's lodger, and sixteen skeleton keys— Committed for trial. ..... vv' THE LATE ACCIDENT AT Po wrsmo uTn.—We are truly happy in not having to communicate any addition to the number of lives lost by the melancholy accident in the Dock-yard. We said there was no reason to suppose that any other besides the sixteen persons then named had fallen a sacri fice to the catastrophe ; and the result of clearing the water out of the dock and basin has fully ascertained its well-founded accuracy. The bodies of seven of the sufferers were interred in Kingston churchyard on Sunday evening last, attended by a large concourse of sympathizing spectators. The solemn acci dent was the subject of pulpit address in most places of wor ship in these towns, on Sunday last. A subscription has b ee n very kindly opened for the benefit of the bereaved families, which we hope to see extensively supported. John Standfield, the Custom-house officer, has left three young orphan children (two boys and a girl), destitute of maternal solicitude, as well as of all means of support: their forlorn and afflicted condition calls for compassionate condolence and benevolent aid.—(Ports mouth Paper.) .. ,_...,.....J,„,....z,, , ~ ~,....... ...„...p.,; Ls, ...t.,,..........:„,..„, ~.. 7 , . v ic4:..-----,'„,>> , ti,rNe A l i , : 4 ~f It.Pke,: I \ Off _^ : : .0 ), , rti) '-- e 1k ROYAL NAVY, &c. PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 24.—0 n Monday the Nassau, Tre mayne, arrived from Sierra Leone ; she left the colony July 25, just as the rainy season commenced, with a cargo of timber, being one of the last ships of the season. The colony was ge nerally healthy. New Barrack apartments had been completed for the troops. The trade of the colony has greatly increased. Not less than 20,000 tons of shipping, trading in timber and gum, had left the colony this season. Since the Ashantee war, the traders in gold dust, in the interior. had taken a new course; to Sago (the capital of Bambarra, about a month's journey from Sierra Leone), thence to Timboo (the capital of the Fulla Country), and down to Sierra Leone ; the trade is now very considerable by this route. General Turner had returned from his first visit to the settlements on the Gold Coast, made with a view principally to the extension of trade. Commodore Bullen was cruizing in the Bight of Benin, in the Maidstone. Yesterday arrived the Sovereign transport, Lieut.

Griffin, Cornelius Longmore, Sergeant 13ur1ow, it. A., Lieut. Lutman and family, 81st Regiment, Mr. and Mrs. Jupp, Ordnance De partment. A letter from his Majesty's ship Tees, elated 25th March, Madras Roads, states, that the Surgeon f the Larne had died at Rangoon ; that Madras had been uncommonly sickly during the last year, having lost nearly half its. native population, which originated in excessive drought, producing a partial fa mine and extensive cholera morbus, in its different stages.— The Tees lost at Trincomalee, last January, 11 men and a boy ; , but on going to sea, on her way to Rangoon, the health of the crew was restored. Mr. J. Starck, acting Purser of the Tees, was appointed Purser of the Slaney.

CORN EXCHANGE, SEpT. 26. Last week the wind was contrary, and in consequence there of, there was a short arriv:tl of all descriptions of Corn. This morning the quantity of -Wheat fresh in from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, is moderate ; there is a good supply of Barley and Pease, not many cleans, and several vessels fresh up with Oats front the North. The samples of New Wheat are in better condition than of late; and such as are quite dry, met buyers readily at Is. per quarter advance on the terms of this day se'nnight; but the trade afterwards became dull, and has not maintained the prices made at the early part of the morning. Barley is plentiful, anti Is. to 2s. per qr. cheaper. Beans remain as last quoted._ Boiling Peas a re more pl en tiful than of late, and rather lower. Grey Peas maintain last quotation. Oats, of fine quality, meet buyers with tolerable freedom, at the terms of this day se'nnight, but other sorts are very dull. In the Flour Trade there is no alteration.

DAIIX Exti (lag from the 31orinng Papers, 5ept.26,185. j sus; - marls.] The expectation of a speedy dissolution of the Parliament has subsided with more rapidity than it sprung up. The circumstances attending this change are such as our readers might have anticipated from the remarks. inverted in The Times of Wednesday last. Briefly, Mr. Canning, as we then intimated, could not have acquiesced in a dissolution of Parliament in the preSent state of public feeling on the Catholic question, without seeming to betray the cause which he had advo cated in the House of COmmons ; and accordingly it appears to have been through Mr. Canning's means that the dissolution has been suspended ; or, if the Right Hon. Gentleman were sincere in his support of the measure, he must have been a mere cipher in a Cabinet which adopted a course apparently detrimental to his policy ; for we are at no pains to deny that the great body of the nation, if taken by the mass, and not by the mind, are fearful of confiding power to the Ca tholics (and that acknowledgment, by the way, may serve as an answer to those who accuse us of studying popular feeling, and adapting our own views to it—of following, rather than striving to direct, the public opinion) ; and a Parliament chosen in the present temper of the nation=the im-Popery cry being all but ready to burst forth must have been deeply imbued with the general sentiment on that subject. How Mr. Canning has effected his object in the Cabinet--how he has escaped the suspicion of being either impo tent or treacherous—is not so clear. We should not suppose the Lord Chancellor would suffer him to impose his views with respect to the dissolution upon the Ministry ; it is, perhaps, therefore, more probable that the present course has been adopted .on his ap peal, and in consideration of the delicate situation in which he good. The enemies of emancipation would, however, see pretty clearly that ultimately they should lose but little by the mcession which indeed might be a motive for making it : for the dissolution must take place next year ; and the Catholic question will come before Parliament in the interval. The friends of the measure, therefore, will stand before their constituents next autumn, in the same situation in which they stand at present, if they shall be found to have pursued the same course. We predict, that there will not be so great a majority in favour of the measure as appeared on the last divisions; and if our prediction be verified by the event, the dissolution might as well have taken place. With respect to the late expecta tion of the dissolution, it has had the effect of bringing the elected body nearer to the electors than would otherwise have happened : and this contiguity is highly useful, no doubt ; but would have been more so, if the public mind had been in what we conceive a right train upon the ques tion which we are considering. Canvassing has begun every where, end cannot be suffered to slacken much during the intervening period be tween the present time and the unavoid. ble dis solution : pretenders will drop off, and closer re lations will be cemented between the future members and their constituents. We shall have a season of affability, professions, and courtesy ! But, ye Messieurs the candidates, be cautious of the engagements into which ye enter : a hasty promise is not so soon forgotten by him to whom it is made, as by him who makes it. [eurnsit rums.] The report of an intended dissolution of Par liament had become so very prevalent, and had oven been confirmed in so many places by pre paratory canvassing, that the information on Sa turday that Parliament would not .be dissolved, was received with a sensation of surprise. Ru, mour was, of course, busy in assigning the rea sons for this decision ; among the most influen tial was said to be the determination of Mr. Can ning to resign if a dissolution was resolved upon. We do not hazard much in classing this hearsay with the other idle conjectures which were abroad Mr. Canning is not a man to make up his mind on this question—or on any other—without being able to produce- his reasons for it. Ile is the last man that would consent to owe his weight in the Cabinet to the threat of withdrawing from its counsels. lle would find no difficulty in Show ing that he consulted the best interests of the country in dissenting from those members of the Cabinet who might think a dissolution expedient ; and the acqniescence of the majority in the views on which he grounded his dissent would not fail to be received as the result of sound policy and reasoned conviction. One inference —and a most important one—may be drawn from the circumstance ofParliament not being dissolved. It gives the nation an assurance, that Ministers feel quite confident that the peace of Europe will not be disturbed, and that nothing is likely to occur either as to our security from abroad, or our prosperity at home, that will at all endanger their popularity in the interval between this and the next Session, at the end of which Parliament expires of course. Viewed, however, as a mea sure of policy, there are many considerations which we can imagine might govern the judgment of Mr. Canning, and of the majority of the Cabi net that concurred with him. The following, among others, would present themselves, we think, as of material weight. Several of those Members who supported the Catholic Bill, after witnessing the subsequent conduct of the Ca. tholic leaders in reviving, by a concerted eva sion of the law, the Association which Par liament, from its dangerous tendency, had put down ; and observing, further, the hostile spi rit with which they began—in despite of the Le gislature and in defiance of it—to re-organise the Catholic force in Ireland, and to count openly upon their numerical strength, have—it may be— considerably changed their sentiments as to the policy of admitting them to political power. The same causes have operated strongly on the minds of the people out of doors, who, combining them with the reviving bigotry and intolerance of the Catholics on the Continent, and on the portent ous alliance of the Catholic Sovereigns with the priesthood, apprehend great danger from any in crease of political influence being given to the Catholics of Ireland, and would consequently not be disposed to favour any candidate who advocat ed their claims. It would hardly, therefore, be deemed fair to send such Members to meet their constituents at a time when this unfriendly im pression prevails, and when their having voted for Catholic emancipation would be likely to insure success to any opponent that should start upon the adverse interest. A Parliament elected under the present apprehension of dan ger to the Protestant Establishment, which—whetlier well or ill-founded—is believed to prevail very generally throughout the country, would infinitely- aggravate that animosity which, Heaven kn o w s , there is no need to embitter. To proceed to an election for the known, if not avowed purp ose o f profiting by this temper of the public mind, would be considered by the Catholics as a call to battle. Whereas the respite will give an interval for healing measures—there will be a time for the feelings of Christian charity and social benevo lence to come round. Ireland will find it her ie. terest to abstain from any course of conduct dint may thin the number of her Protestant friends.— The better dispositions and feelings both of Pro testant and Catholic will have time to ripen —the field of controversy will have lain fallow for nine months, and the advantage gained will be infinite. They reasoned well that refused to plough it up at this moment. If an increase to the Anti-catholic Party would hare been gained in England, the opposites lines would alga be in motion in Ireland, the numbers gained on their side would probably have been equivalent. The conflict at the first muster of their forces iu Parliament would have been more doubtful, and, on that account, more desperate. The forty shilling freeholders—let an election come when it may—will show what may be done under a system which destroys all the natural influence of property, by splitting it for election pur poses, while it puts the moral independence of the Representative under the controul of a starving peasantry, to whom the direction of the Priests —now, more than ever, active in politics—invariably gives the law. Other rea sons occur to us beside those we have thus briefly adverted to, as concurring to make it in expedient that this juncture should have been chosen for a dissolution of i'arliament. Rut we need not pursue the subject further. When, at the close of the next Session, the Members go down to their constituents, the deliberative exer cise of their elective franchise must be taken— with reference to the Catholic Question—as de cisive of the national sentiment, on which ever side it leant, and thus decided, we hope the question of emancipation will be thereafter set at rest. [THE PUBLIC LEDGEH.] It is infinitely amusing to witness the shifts and shufilings of the King of Spain, to enable him to evade the recognition of the loans raised at the period of the constitutional system. Ills subterfuges are the more amusing on account of their utter inutility ; for their tendency to aggra vate his pecuniary difficulty, is notorious to all but himself; and his wants at last will reduce him to a situation, where he will be compelled to do all the justice in his power to his creditors.— He will soon have only this alternative, or that of becoming again a constitutional Ruler ; and whoever has studied his charc,!ter, does not re-_ quire to be told how he would act in this di. lemma. As to the argumewt that he is not• answerable for any acts at that time,' in' consequence of the alleged state of restraint in which he was held—it is thit:very max of impudent sophistry, for, waving his solemn and repeated assurances at that period, it• would, if once allowed, subject all public en gagements to the mere caprice of any weal. or vicious monarch. Besides, every constitutional government implies restraint on the will of the Prince; and, if it depended on his pleasure, there never would be such a government ; or, if it hap petted by chance to exist, its existence would be as frail as the houses of sand that children build on the sea-shore. This argument, therefore, is as disingenuous as any other part of Ferdi nand's proceeding; and its effect is to frustrate every attempt on his part to raise a new loan. The attempt, which has just failed, and which, it is confidently reported had the concurrence of the leading Continental Governments, skews what he has to expect in money matters ; for there was no want of good will in the party that has backed out, only that it saw at once the impracticability of thst plan. The Loan Contractors of the Holy Alliance would not have demurred, if they thought that there was the faintest probability of carrying it in the English market. Fer dinand's honour in money transactions, how ever, is now fully appreciated in this coun try; and, for the credit of our monied men, we trust that the use he would make of a loan is not indifferent to theta. After reimburs ing the French Government for the expellee it incurred in its most iniquitous invasion of Spaiu, the Spanish Monarch, in all probability, would have applied the remainder of the proposed suln of ten millions sterling (one report states twenty millions) in trying to establish the solidity of his title in Mexico, where he pretends he has mime., rous partizans, and in thus thwarting the English Government in one of the most important' branches of foreign policy. [HORNING CHRONICLE.] The latest accounts from Iflo de Janeiro we find are of the 20th July. Sir Charles Stuart arrived from Lisbon, in the Wellesley, on the 17th, and he had been preceded by General Brant, who had arrived direct from England.— The packet was to have sailed on the 19th ; but she was detained for the purpose of bringing over Sir Charles's dispatches. Some very singular speculations were afloat respecting the negocia. tions pending, and many enlightened persons were of opinion that the overtures, brought from Portugal would not be received, in consequence of the terms being supposed rather more hutni. liating to the Brazilians than they were disposed to accede to. The chief difficulty, no doubt, is the manner in which the succession to the. Throne of Portugal is to be settled at the death
