" The little racecourse at Hampton" has been materially altered in its externals since tho day when Sir Mulberry Hawk and Lord Frederick Verisopht strolled about the can vas hells, and quarrelled and fought within sight and sound of the noble river, and Charles Dickens gave us that admir able description of a racecourse, one of the most graphic of the many graphic ones that have come from his pen. We do not know that it has altered for the better. The diligent searcher would probably find as much genteel ruffianism in existence corigyears rseigneaete there, mixed up with all ; noble lords and honour able gentlemen the objectionable features th a t peculiarly distinguish a me. t r opolitan gathering. Thi s y ear the weather was far from now as s 2 still ll propitious. A hailstorm, such as is not often seen in January much less in June, accompanied with thunder and light ning, heralded in the proceedings. The attendance was but moderate, and hardly up to the usual Hampton mark, and the fields were small and not remarkable for quality. Mr Hodgman's colours were first past the chair in the Two-Year-Old Hampton and Claremont Stakes, the style in which his colt Victorious Won the latter, even from the t moderate lot he encountered, stamping him as something superior. The Surrey and Middlesex was denuded of much of its interest from sundry" scratchings" of horses who had held prominent positions in the betting within the last few days. In the absence of Early Purl, the - other reprpstentßiivw of the stable, they made Welcome the favourite at 3 to 1. He is a slow horse, but the rather heavy ground suited him, and he managed to run second to Suspicion, who won cleverly by three parts of a length. Nothing but the three placed were in the race from the distance. The other events call for 110 particular notice beyond what our return gives. There was an improvement visible in the arrangements for clearing the course, for which for merly Hampton had a bad p re- eminence. Punctuality could hardly be expected, the weather taken into considera tion. The following are the details of the running:— The Two Year-old Stakes of 3 sovs each, with 25 added, for 2-yr-olds; colts Bst 101 b, and fillies Bst 71b. Winners extra, and horses having started twice and never won allowed 31b, Half-mile. 7 subs. Mr Hodgman's Vision, Bst 121 b .............. (Perry) 1 Mr Craven's Sisyphus, Bst 71b ................

They got away at the first attempt, Weatherglass having slightly the best of it, and made play, followed by the favo rite and Rosa Lee to the enclosure, where Loafer got up, and for a stride or two held a clear lead, but Weatherglass coming again won easily by three parts of a length ; a length between the second and third ; a bad fourth. The winner was sold to Mr T. Hughes for 100 guineas. The Claremont Stakes of 5 sous each, with 100 added ; for 2-yr , old colts, Bst 10lb ; and fillies, Bst 71b; winners extra.

Belle of Kars, with Advance at his girths, was the first off, but after running a few strides they were headed by the favourite, who came up on the whip hand, and as they en tered the straight held a lead of a couple of lengths, fol lowed by Belle of Kars, Advance, and Discretion next the rails, On reaching the enclosure Victorious drew away, when Fordham seeing his chance hopeless e;lsed his horse, and was headed by Discretion, who falkyvtd. Mr Hodg man's colt to the end, and was beaten by 10 lengths. There were two lengths between the second and third ; Belle of Kars was fourth, Melbourne Mary fifth, BaEquine sixth, and Victory last. The Surrey and Middlesex Stakes (handicap) of 10 Boys each, 5 ft, and 3 soya if declared, with 100 sous added; the second saved his stake. Winners extra. 44 subs, 20 of whom paid. Two miles. Mr W.

Betting— 3 to 1 agst Welcome, 4 to 1 agst Verbana, 5 to 1 agst Suspicion, 7 to 1 agst Merry Bird, 8 to 1 each agst Dunkeld and Gibraltar, and 20 to 1 agst Douche and Bally Edmond. The start was delayed some time through Double First breaking away.

COMPOSITION OF RAIN-WATER.—In a paper ad dressed to the Academy of Sciences, M. Bobierre treats of the chemical composition of rain.water collected iu cities at different altitudes. Finding it impossible to apply to agronomy the:numbers expressing the relative abundance of nitric acid, ammonia, organic matter, &c„ in the rain-water collected in large cities, he resolved to place udometers at very distinct stations, and analyse their pro duce. The waters thus obtained and examined by him were collected on the platform of the Observatory at Nantes, at an altitude of 60 metres, and then in a low part of the town, only about seven metres above lover water mark. During the year 1863, he evaporated 372 litres of water in an oil bath, under the action of carbonate of potash, and thus determines every month the nitrogen of the fixed organic matter, as well as that of the nitric acid and chlorine detected in the water; after which, by fractional distillation, he determined the ammoniacal nitrogen, the substances existing in the water in a state of suspension being separated by filtration and examined through the microscope. Thel Icon elusions at which he arrives through his experi ments are these :-1. The composition of the rain-water collected in large towns is extremely variable. 2. The variations observed, and resulting from the purification of the atmosphere by washing, are particularly remarkable on account of the quantity of ammonia, nitric acid, and organic substances they contain. 3, The greater the agglomeration of animal life, the greater the quantity of ammonia and organic matter in rain water. 4. At an altitude of 47 metres, in the rain water collected at Nantes, the average dose of ammonia was about two grammes per cubic metre ; at an altitude of seven metres it was about six grammes. 3. As the ammonia diminishes so the nitric acid increases; it was seven grammes at an altitude of 47 metros, and only five grammes at seven metres. 6. At Nantes the cubic metro of rain water contained 14 gms. of chlorides expressed in sea salt. 7. In order correctly to ascertain the quantity of fertilising matterin thebrought p by country. 8.

The flag was lowered to a straggling start, Coronet being the first away, having for his immediate attendants Walloon the favourite, Antidote, Bonnie Glen, Black Friar, and Little Savage, the others following at wide intervals, brought up by Dalston. On their fairly entering the straight u p by y Coronet Antidote, dropped whoaway was taken Walloon came out, and withOverstone next the rails, Black Friar, Bonny Glen, and Little Savage in waiting, g came on together to the enclosure, where Grinoshaw made his effort, and, getting the favourite's head slightly in advance, won a remarkably fine race b y a neck.

The others were widely spread, and pulling up as they Came past the post. H. M. 8, Folly Quiver Octoroon Dione 2 4 0 They jibed round the lightship to the northward. The Dione did not round well, losing time by going to leeward, still carrying her jibheaded topsail, while the res:, stru , :k theirs. As the ebb tide was still running, and the yachts had to heat dead to windward all the way up, they courted the slack. In the first board the Quiver went out right to windward of the Folly, who shortly after was observed with a reef down, the wind at the time being very heavy and squally, and the Octoroon shortly after reached through her lee. With the squall the wind came out from the north-west, and they were all broken off. Just below Southand the Quiver was leading by a quarter of a mile. the Octoroon being second, and Folly third. Then came a thunderstorm, a calm, and some catspaws. The Folly, having kept well close to the south shore, got a n i ce b reeze o f w i n d, an d p a ssing the Oc toroon, went very near to the Quiver, and so class were they all through that the slightest wischanoe would have changed 1,,e gs (c„o.‘ . . , 4 - A: :-717.- .

Throughout the day the wind was squally and variable, accompanied by heavy showers of rain and a thunder storm in the afternoon, after which there was ever and anon a calm. The race was with yachts of the fourth class, for prizes in plate, value £3O for the first boat, and £lO for the second, and the following contended : Capt. D. T. Camberlayne. Mr Cecil Long. Folly There was a time allowance of half a minute per ton, and the course was from Gravesend to the Nore Light and back. Mr Charles Tatham, a very old and experienced yachts man, was the officer of the day, in the absence of the noble Commodore, Lord Alfred Paget, and the Vice, Lord De Roe, but the latter superintended the arrangement of the cutters at their stations. The wind was west and by south, and plenty of it, as will be seen by the time in which the yachts ran down to the Nore. The race was started at llh. 48m. There was no advantage in position, and the cutters all canted at the same moment, the Octoroon, however, waiting till her mainsail jibed over before she fairly set it. The Dione first showed her jib-headed topsail, and the others immediately followed her example, but with square ones. The Folly took the lead, followed by the Quiver, which just below Tilbury ran into the first place, the Folly close behind her with her sheet right off; but in the lower part of Gravesend Reach the Folly again drew past the Quiver. They went down right before the wind, shifting topsails and carrying as much canvas as they could well stand under, the wind freshening as the squalls came en, The Octoroon soon filled the second place, and then there became a gap of a cable's length between the first and second boats; but there being a lull at Leigh, they were all together again with scarcely half a dozen yards between them, when the Folly by judicious sailing again drew ahead and they rounded the Nore Light as follows : -4T : PRICE.

Wormald is known to the patrons of the art from his match with Jem Mace's Black; and from the manner in which he ac quitted himself upon that occasion he was looked upon as a promising candidate for fistic honours. He is 23 years of age, stands sft 11/in, and weighed when he last scaled 12/st. He is a fine-made, powerful young fellow, but for the pre sent encounter was in no scat of condition ; indeed, on Fri day last he was considered so decidedly unfit to stand the wear and tear of a contest, that his friends entertained seri ous doubts whether they ought not to forfeit the money without letting the affair come to trial. Iles, who has gained the sobriquet of " Hick's Big One," has never fought before within the ropes ; but this new importation from the provinces was considered well qualified to gain " milling " distinction. He is a native of Bristol, stands Oft llin, and weighed, as he stated, 13/ stone; so that, to make use of the words so often used by the late much-respected Tom Spring, " if good enough, he was big enough for anything." The betting was even, and when the com batants had been got in readiness by their seconds they were conducted to the scratch, and at 20 minutes past five o'clock, were left to begin the contest. On getting toge ther the men displayed caution, and owing to the reluctance manifested on both sides to make the first "plunge," the opening bout occupied 20 minutes. Wormald, in the second round, obtained the first of the leading events by a neat left-hander ; and it soon became apparent that he was much more expert in the use of his digits than his antago nist, who displayed little or no knowledge of the art, and when he made some of his left-handed lunging hits did so in a very inartistic fashion. Iles ought from the commence ment to have forced the fighting, but this he did not do, much to the dissatisfaction of his seconds, until the battle was far advanced. Two rounds were fought in 35 minutes, three in 45 minutes, six in 56 minutes, and nine rounds were gone through in one hour and ene minute, a proof that the milling thus far had been slow work ; indeed, from the reluctance which the combatants showed to get to range, many were of opinion that the battle would terminate in a "draw." From the 17th round, however, the men having " roused up," the milling became of a lively description ; and in the 24th and last bout, Wormald, with a straight left-hander, followed up with one from the right, gave his opponent his quietus, and was hailed the winner, the con test having lasted two hours and eight minutes. The New City Traffic Regulation Act, A. statement has just been put forth, under the authority of a committee of the Court of Aldermen, as to the pro ceedings taken on the part of the Corporation for carrying out the provisions of the City of London Traffic Regulation Act of last year. This document embodies a correspondence which has passed between Sir G. Grey, the Home Secre tary, and the Corporation on the subject, and from which it appears that Sir George, with the Attorney end Solicitor- General on the one hand, and the Court of Aldermen with the law oflic,r.4 of tho Corporation on the other, are directly at variance in many respects as to the powers conferred by the new act upon the Court of Aldermen t a regulate the traffic. For the present the result of this cliff Tence seems to be, in the opinion of the Recorder of London, the Com mon Sergeant, and the rest of the law officers, " to render nugatory whet has been considered one of the most impor tant provisions of the act," and the Court of Aldermen, they add, have no course open to them but to confine the by-laws which they had submitted for the sanction of the Home Secretary to those approved by the law officers of the Crown. These are only three in number of 17. The first prescribes the route to be followed by passenger carriages going from St Paul's-churchyard to the further side of Lon don-bridge and returning—viz., by Cannon-street; the second provides that no vehicle shall be driven through the streets between 9 in the morning and 6 in the evening laden to a greater height than 10ft, measuring from the ground, or to a greater width than 7ft; and the third prohibits driving of carts and waggons with logs of wood, metal, scaffolding poles, masts, and the like, exceeding 25ft in length or SR 6in in ;breadth, within the same hours. By the by-laws, which have been rejected by Sir G. Grey, tho conducting of any kind of locomotive propelled by steam between 6 in the morning and 10 at night, except a steam fire-engine actually going to or returning from a fire, was to be strictly prohibited. No coals, beer, wine, or other liquid in casks, conveyed in carts, waggons, or vans were to be allowed to be delivered in 24 of the principal streets of the city, which were named, between 9in the morning and 5 in the even ing. The sale of vegetables, fruit, fish, or other articles car ried upon any truck or vehicle was prohibited betwen 9 in the morning and 6 in the evening in the same streets, and on London and Elackfriars bridges. Every waggon and van was to be placed with its side parallel with the foot pavement when being loaded or unloaded, or stopped for any other purpose. Upwards of 70 principal places were in dicated at which in the whole 88 shoeblacks might ply their calling, and the Commissioner of the city police was em powered, for the public convenience, to alter or increase the standings or the number of shoeblacks so that the number of standing places did not exeeed 150, and the number of shoeblacks, 300 in the whole. These were the principal re gulations ; but there were others prohibiting the obstruc tion of streets and footways by persons with various enu merated articles for sale, or by goods or merchandise durin g removal, so as to hinder or incommode a free passage. A power is conferred by the act which the Alderman have nor, as yet, exercised, namely, to regulate the mode of distin guishing hackney cabs when empty and when actually ply ing for hire. Of all their functions this is the most clearly defined, and it was intended to meet one of the most patent and vexatious obstructions of the legitimate traffic in all the chief thoroughfares—namely, the loitering in them of e mpty cabs on the look-out for customers, instead of re pairing to the nearest cabstand. The code of by-laws which we have epitomised was pre pared by the Committee of Aldermen, in conjunction with the Commissioner of Police, the City Solicitor, and the clerks to the magistrates at the Mansion-house and Guildhall justice-rooms. It was afterwards approved by the Court of Aldermen, and, having been published in ac cordance with the statute, was forwarded to Sir Geo. Grey for his sanction on 4th December last, together with certain suggestions for its modification, so as to meet the wishes and requirements of the wine and spirit trade and the build ing trade, in respect to parts of the regulations which were likely to pr ess seriously upon them. Th e H ome Secretary replied, on 22d December, that no power appeared to be given by the act to him to alter the by-laws made under its authority, and that his province was only to approve them. lie enclosed two complaints which had been addressed to him on the part of persons whose trading operations it was alleged would be prejudicially affected by the proposed re gulations. One was a letter from Mr Alderman Salomons, calling his attention to the entire prohibition of the sale of fruit from barrows and trucks iu the City between the hours of 9in the morning and 6in the evening. This, wrote the . alderman, "is closing the city as a thoroughfare to ancud - dustrious, and, indeed, a useful class, who retail a cheap wholesome luxury to the working classes of the metropolis." The other was from a brewery firm at Ratcliff, objecting to a clause apparently, to them, so sweep i ng as to , pr , o h bibit the delivery of a cask of beer for priva te use at any house in between 9 a.rn and 5 committeename, between aldermen, of certain p . i s i t r o e e r t e 7 ,l r y e o fe n r r t e h d e ptaorttiy of nthame under date of Jan. 21, was that the clause in question was never intended to apply to the delivery of beer by retail, a n d that, alter due consideration, they did not see any reason to alter the regulation cited by Alderman Salomons. On Jan. 29th, referring to the reg ulations wh ich , with some modifi cations, had been preparatory r epa submittedtoryto their to forhim civicauthorities being published, the Home Secretary wrote thus :- 4, The first question which presents itself to Sir George Grey is, whether they are strictly within the power of making by-laws which is given to the Court of the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of London by the third section of the act of 1863, and are confined to the special TENTH VOLUME OF ONCE A WEEK, On the 20th instant, price 7s. 6d., handsomely bound in cloth, the Tenth Volume of 0 N" A W E E K.

TEETH. —Mr. ESK ELL'S INVENTION in the construction of ARTIFICIAL TEETH has the following advantages :—A set of teeth, of excellent work manship and mechanism, can be made and fitted with the most perfect accuracy and success, in a few hours, without pain or extraction of stumps, and to answer all the purposes of mastication and articulation. They are fitted without wires or fastenings, and adapt themselves so perfectly to the gums, that they are quite immoveable, except at the option of the wearer. Invalids or residents in the country can ad just these teeth to many changes of the mouth without the aid of a dentist. They are not so liable to injury, are always useful, and will last a lifetime.

Sir G. GrE that he feels great doubts upon this point. He ims 4trtm necessary to refer to all the instances in which, as it appears to him, it may be contended that the Court has exceeded the power intrusted to it by the act. He will refer, for the sake of example, to a few instances only. By-law No. 2 prohibits , during certain hours any vehicle drawn by more than tour horses in the stree's—that is, in ail streets without any restriction or limitation. By by-law No. 6 the delivery of coals, beer, wine, or other liquid in casks is prohibited dur ing certain hours in certain streets. By by-law No. 12 the , sale of a variety of at titles carried upon vehicles is forbidden in certain streets. By by-law No. 15 the Court not only ap poins standings for shoeblacks, but delegates its authority in that rsspect in future to the Commissioner of City police.• Sir G. Grey cannot find that any express or implied power is conferred by the late act which authorises these regula tions, and he therefore requests to be informed whether tho by-laws have been submitted to the legal advisers of the Corporation cf London, and, if so, whether they are of opinion that all the by-laws are in conformity with the act, and can be enforced by the penalties therein provided." Upon the receipt of this letter the Recorder and the Com mon-Sergeant were catapulted with special reference to the objections urged by the Secretary of Sate, and they gave it as their opinion that the draught regulations, with thu exception of the proviso to the 15;h, relating to the power given to the Police Commissioner with respect to shoeblacks, which should be expunged, were within the power conferred upon the Corporation by the act, The Attorney and Solicitor General, to w'.orn the pro posed by-laws have since been submitted bythe Home Secre tary for their opinion, express their regret that they cannot agree with the opinion given by the Recorder and Common- Sergeant. They go on to say, "Of the by-laws in question the Ist, 4th, s[ll, 16th, and part of the 15th, down to the proviso, are clearly conformable to the act, and may be enforced by the penalties therein provided ; but the rest of the by-laws, however proper and expedient such regulations may be in themselves, seem to us to be beyond the scope of the authority given by the Act, and therefore not liable to be enforced by its penalties." In support of this view the , law officers of the Crown proceed to give reasons. The opinion of the Recorder and Common-Sergeant has since been fortified by those of Mr Brand, the Controller of the Corporation—Mr Corrie, the Remembrancer —ant - Mr — Nelson, the City Solicitor. There the matter rests for the present, the Court of Aldermen contenting themselves with. giving effect to the three by-laws out of the 17 cited above. Inspection of the Civil Service Rifles by the Prince of Wales. The inspection of the 21st Middlesex (Civil Sere vice) Rifles, which, in consequence of the presence of its honorary colonel, the Prince of Wales, will be registered as the annual official inspection of this excellently--drilled corps, took piece lest evening is the quadrangle of Somerset House, before a large and distinguished assemblage. Every preparation to do honour to the auspicious event was made. The quadrangle was tastefully hung with a varied series of Admiralty signals, interspersal with union jacks and standards; on either side were ranged tempo rary seats for the accommodation of visitors admitted by tickets, while on the west tide of the square a raised dais, decorated with bunting and covered with a delicately white awning, over which floated the Prince of Wales' standard, was erected for the reception of the Prince and Princess. Soon after three o'clock a body of the A Division, under the direction of Superintendent Durkin, assisted by Inspector Denning, were stationed at the entrance gates and in the enclosure. Half-past five was the appointed time for the arrival of his royal highness, but long before that hour every seat was occupied, the fair sex being the most numerous. At four o'clock the various com panies assembled in the quadrangle, to the number of 400 rank and file. The men having been put through a preliminary drill by Major Mill, assisted by Captain and Adju tant Lombard, Lientenant.Colonel Viscount Bury, MY., took command, and rehearsed the men in the movements through which they subsequently passed before his royal highness, leaving them formed in wings in readiness to give the royal salute, &c. During the interval that elapsed between this and the arrival of the Prince and Princess, Viscountess Bury, accompanied by the Countess of Albemarle, Lady Suffield, Mrs. Loyd Lindsay, Lady William Compton, Miss Compton, and Lady Augusta Koppel, took their seats on the dais behind the chairs of state. There were also present, amongst other dis tinguished'personages, the Earl of Albemarle, Lord Suffield, Lieutenant-Colon:31 Loyd Lindsey, &c. A little before 6 o'clock distant cheers armounced the approach of the Prince and Princess, arid im mediately afterwards the • royal carriage dreva through the lines of volunteers to the dais. Upon alighting their royal bighnessfA were received with as royal salute, the men prescnting rams and the band strikirg up the firbt bars of 111; N.,ziLn?.l The Princess wcs rce:ived Ladi :131213- and ushered to her seal . , while the Prince, upon etcending the dais, graciously acknowledged the general greeting accorded him by all present. The Prince, who wore the undress uniform of a general officer, was attended by Gen. Knollys and Cpl. Keppel. The Princess was attired in mourning, and attended by Lady Carmarthen. The Prince, accompanied by Lord Bury and followed by Gen. Knollys and Col. Kep pel, walked down the lines and inspected the men ; he then returned and took up his pOsition on the dais, and the manoeuvres, directed by Lord Bury, were commenced. At their conclusion, the Prince stepped into the centre and said, " Gentlemen, I need hardly tell you the great pleasure I feel at being present at this inspection, and the satisfac tion I have experienced in witnessing your manoeuvres. Under the able tuition of Col. Lord Bury, you have had great opportunities of becom. ing efficient in your drill. It occurs to me from the great steadiness you have acquired, that you must have paid great attention to drill. I had this square formed so that I might presen! . you with my chal lenge cup, and I have great pleasure in doing so." The Prince then handed the challenge cup to Lord Bury, and a cup to the winner, Mr. Burroughs, of the Whitehall Company. Three cheers were then given for the Rance, three for Denmark, and the Prince and Princess drove away amid st the cheers of all present. THR EATEN ED OUT BREAK AT D A RTMOOR PRI SON. —On M on d ay morning last, when the body of convicts at Dartmoor were marched out of their prison to their labour on the Moor, it became apparent that a mutinous combina tion had been formed amongst them, and that a serious outbreak had been planned. On being told to break off for Work, not a man moved to fall out of the ranks, and the order was answered with a defiant murmur and a dogged refusal to perform any work at all. A ringleader met every persuasion or order of the warders with the most dreadful imprecations and threats. But every available precaution had been taken. The armed civil guard, which had been augmented and posted within hail, was called in, and the ringleaders and most prominent malcontents were at once marched b ac k t o pr i son, w h ere th e y were locked in separate cells t o awa it t h e pun i s h m ent which will be awarded by Capt a i n G am bi er, th e v isiting director. The cause of the mutiny was the application of the new reduced scale of diet. For some months past the governors of con vict prisons have had orders to adopt the reduced scale of diet, which wa s a pp r oved by the commission of doctors under the authority of the Secretary of State. Up to Sunday last these orders had not been adopted in Dartmoor prison, and the old scale provided by the late Sir J os h ua Jebb was adhered to. On that morning, however, it was announced to the convicts that the change was to be made. The dissatisfaction soon became apparent, an d some well disposed convict s g ave the prison officials early information obtain na protection a n entire againstrelease that a serious mutiny was contemplated, Prompt measures were therefore taken to prevent it. s f i r m o l i riers a B l : l nlan deb ei t nn s t a o debt liabilitiesmay seizure of h eir goods, instant without publicity, by application Messrs.s u n D d l e a r r s z h a s. 1 p l , a Solicitors ofe easy ye instalments.o Court t o , f Bankruptcy, oin ce (established 1830), 12, Hatton-garde City branch --6, Moor gate-street, Bank.—ADTT.
