Measure all things by computation, and gauge sentiments and feelings by plummet and line as it were, instead of rightly estimating the force of example and the sway of opinion. "The Tyrol Jubilee in 1863" is an entertaining account of a scene worth remembering, and the reader will not share the delight of the writer that no one will be able to see another " Jubilsum" unless he live to more than half the years of Methuselah, " Margaret Denzil's History" is not yet concluded ; but it seems as if there was a remote chance of its being so approaching, since " The Beginning of the End" is the title of the last chapter here met with. " The End of a Long Day's Work" is a pleasing sketch that refers to the late Mr Senior. The details are given in a simple and touching style, and must win the sympathy of all who peruse them. It is truly said that now and then it is a welcome and pleasing sight to see a complete picture of life " as it were spread out before our eyes, to listen to the end of the story." TEMPLE The Doctor's Wife , ' makes more Progress in this part, ana the denouement rapidly approaches. Mrs Gilbert cannot now excuse her self on the plea of ignorance, for many tongues are ready and Willing to tell her of her improper con duct. Lady Gwendoline's advocacy is just what plight have been expected from such a person, and certainly she went the worst possible way to work to gain her pro posed end. Roland Lansdell is eeveloped into a selfish and unprincipled man, who deliberately plans the ruin of an. ignorant and misguided girl, just to suit his own fancies and amuse his world-weary mind. " Broken to Harness" presents some sketches of Barbara's home life. These afford a useful warning to those who marry out of their sphere, and do not take any pains to conform themselves to the requirements of their new one. The picture drawn of Alice Schroder, too, is very natural; and some of the more worldly personages also appear in a striking manner in this sMr martly sketched tale. "Paid in Full" also progresses. Ledbitter's manoeuvres are becoming discovered, and o ne plot is succeeding to another. Horace and his wife oft on, very miserably, and they certainly bear out the truth ‘ the saying, "Marry i n haste, and repent at leisure. " of ‘Mra nts, Wishes, and "Whims" is a cleverly drawn article some of the ruling manias and special follies that have possessed the minds of people, It is truly said that it is the excess which is so injurious in the carrying out of these de mires, and the advice is excellent which bids folks to be careful as to What they select for a ruling motive. "If our desires ate constantly allowed to run into courses so irrational that com mon sense forbids us even attempting to gratify them, W e must not be astonished if at last we come to want, a Vant—the direst want of all." " The Streets of the ' World" by George Augustus Sala, this time brings before us a descripti on of Hamburg—the Alster Bassin. " The lighting Power of Europe is a striking description of the present unsatisfactory state of affairs. " A Hapless Man' , is a melancholy historical sketch. sa!'198ONOBON SOCIETY.—A sketch of life at Tatter. pens this numb er , pl easa ntly d escr ibi n g that Well-known spat and some of its celebrities.

".Court Life out of Doors" is pleasantly illustrated by an engraving of Mr Augustus Bouvier's charming picture of " The Maids of Honour of the Princess of Wales," sug gested by a passage in Leigh Hunt's " Old Court Suburb." It would perhaps be more correct to say that the article illustrates the picture, for it tells us which is Which of that bevy of fair damsels whose charms have been chronicled in prose and verse by the poets and prose Writers of their time. The account of the London Opera Directors, and the principal composers, performers, and singers who adorned their management is continued and bring s us d own t o 17 90.

Paris: Charles Donn iol.—The most remarkable paper in the livrai son of Le Correspondent, published under date 25 atatiet, is unquestionably the very first among the seven principal contri butions —namely, Augustin Cochin's Comprehensive Chapter (treatise it might almost be called) on the Industry and Population of Paris. The information —apparently most authentic, certainly very various, and beyond all doubt in the way of its putting forth, thoroughly delightful —the world of information conveyed to the readers of ..Le Correspondent through these singularly readable pages of M. Cochin (an unfortunate name) reflect honour even upon this eminent periodical. Immediately after the article relating to Paris, comes the Viscount H. de Bornier's impassioeed and impressive eulogiura upon Chateaubriand - -upon the genius, that is, of the author of the Genius of Christianity I Pierre de Bake relates in the next paper the history of the last insurrection in Algeria. Leon Arbaud then brings to a conclusion his recollections of the late J . • J. Ampere. The Abbe Blarnpignon descants on the "Life of the Saints." Ernestine Drouet has a graceful poetical contribution in this number, en titled, " Mes Premiers Jonrs de Poesie." ' And, besides a prose contribution from the hand of C. de Meaux' on Christianity and Liberty under the Roman Empire, there are here the customary group of literary criticisms and the usual resume of the events of the month to lend its usual 'diversity of interest to the pages of Le Correspondent. MACATJLAY's HISTORY OF ENGLAND. People's Edition. Part X.

Altogether, the more we see of the present edition the more we are impressed with a c onviction that it is one deserving of that wide and lasting Circulation that it is, no doubt, by this time beginning to ,l'ajoy.

The accounts from the manufacturing districts for the psst week state that business generally has continued seasonably active. At Manchester both cloths and yarns have fully maintained previous rates, while the demand for winter fabrics at Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield has been on the In crease. The hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Nottingham have remained rather dull, as usual at this season of the year, white a more cheerful tone has prevailed in the hardware dis tricts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolver hampton.

Most of the country markets held on Saturday were but moderately supplied with wheat, yet all kinds moved off slowly, at about previous quotations. Barley was firm in price, and most other descriptions of produce moved off steadily, at extreme rates. No change of importance has taken place in the value of grain on the Continent. The latest advices from New York bring fluctuating markets. The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week were only moderate. The imports from abroad were 23,802 quarters of wheat, 3,700 barley, 35,821 oats, 600 beans, 12,311 peas, 7,106 linseed, 5,600 rapeseed, 365 sacks, and 29,895 barrels of flour. Fresh-up to-day, coastwise and by land carriage, the ar rivals of home-grown wheat were very moderate. The show of samples was consequently small. The attendance of buyers was limited, and the demand for both red and white qualities was heavy at, in some instances, a decline in the quotations, compared with Monday last, of from is to 2s p e r quarter. There were a few samples of new wheat on offer in mid dling condition. One parcel from Essex sold at 55s per quarter. There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on the stands, and sales progressed slowly on rather lower terms, say ls. per quarter. We understand that heavy shipments of wheat have been made from Dantzig• The supply of both English and foreign barley was limited. On the whale, the trade ruled firm at last week's prices. Malt—the supply of which was moderately good—was in fair request on former terms. Although the arrivals from abroad have been large, oats were film in price with a good consumptive inquiry. The few beans on the stands wefts taken off at extreme rates. Scarcely any peas were in the market, And the inquiry for them ruled steady, at full prices. Both English and foreign flour was dull but not Cheaper. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

(Before a Special Jury.) CODRINGTON P. CODRINGTON AND ANDERSON. Mr Bovill, Q.C., Mr Serjeant Ballantine, and Dr Spinks appeared for the petitioner; the Queen's Advocate, Mr Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. Inderwick for the respondent; Mr Price, Q C., and Mr Swabey for the co-respondent. The 'hearing of this ease was resumed on Saturday by the examination of John Crocker, a cab driver, who had watched Mrs Cod. rington, by direction of the Rev Mr Watson. He said—l saw the lady riding about London and Hampton-court. On one occasion in November, 1863, I saw her leave Taviton street and a gentleman joined. He was about 40 years of age, which agreed with the description given of Colonel Anderson. He did not know for a fact that it was that person. Cross-examined by Mr Hawkins, Q.C.—I left Hampton Court on the 11th of July. Between that time and the 16th I was to watch Mrs Codrington. I did so whenever I had an opportunity of seeing her. I did not have interviews with Lady Boucher, Mrs Watson, and Admiral Codrington day by day. Mrs Codrington went out frequently, and I followed her. She could not go anywhere but what I fol lowed her, She did not know 1 was watching her. I nearly always gave my reports to Lady Boucher. Sometimes I gave a report to Mrs Watson. To Admiral Codrington I have given a number of reports. I left off on the 25th of July last, because I did not think I was wanted any longer. I watched at Hampton-Court and Eccleston-square, and then the lady came to London. She then went to Sunderland House, Surbiton. I was not at Wimbledon to watch her. I returned to what I considered a distasteful business. I returned to it because my feelings were appealed to. (Laughter.) Before I commenced my watching I saw Lady Boucher. I cannot recollect whether Mrs Watson was present. I watched Mrs Codrington from the 4th to the 11th of September. I then gave it up because it was an unpleasant piece of business. Upon my oath I did not leave because I could discover nothing. Nothing whatever was discovered during the time, which made it all the more unpleasant to watch. (Laughter.) On the 31st of October I received a letter from Admiral Codrington, and I went to see him on the following day at half-past 8 o'clock (Sunday). I did not know Col. Anderson, but Admiral Codrington had told me he was in town. I was to watch him. I saw him with Admiral Codrington afterwards. The admiral shook hands with him, and they appeared to be on good terms. There was nothing like quarrelling. They shook hands at parting. I watched the house that day near Eccleston-equare until 3in the afternoon, when I saw Mrs Codrington come out. She drove to the east end of Eaton square, where she got out of the cab, but I lost view of her. This occurred in cousequeuce of her getting out of her cab before I got out of the one I was in. I thought she might have gone to church, so I remained till the service was over, but I did not see her again. 1 was to be succeeded by a man named Topp, but I did not know him. I went on duty the following day because he did not come. On the Monday I saw her leave Eccleston-square, but I don't know whether the admiral was then residing there. I watched her to a house in Taviton-street. I cannot give a description of the gentleman I saw get into the cab. I could not even see his face. He was a tall man about 6 feet in height. That's all I can say about it. I followed the cab to the Grosvenor Hotel. I was but a short distance from the door when I saw Mrs Codrington's cab stopped. I cant say that a gentle man entered this cab. I know I followed a cab in which I supposed Mrs Codrington was, but it passed the admiral's house in Eccleston-square. I thought I was wrong. Mrs Watson, wben she engaged me to watch, did not give me directions how to set to work. AlLshe said was that it was an honourable occupation. I know of Mrs Codrington's desk being taken from Eccleston-square. I was outside the house when the desk was brought by the lawyer's clerk. I took it to a house in Chester-square. I saw it again in the house about an hoar after. Admiral Codring ton, Mrs Watson, Lady 13ouctier, and I were present. I don't know whose house it was. The desk was forcibly broken open in the parlour. had my share in this trans action, but I suppose I had got hardened to a distateful work. (Laughter.) I took the papers out, and they were looked over by all. The desk sad papers were afterwards taken to the lawyer's office. Re-examined —On one occasion I watched Mrs Cod rington from Hampton Court to London. On arriving in town she entered a oab, which stopped at Simpson's, in the Strand. A message was cent in, and the cab then drove to Half Moon-street, Piccadilly, and to Spanish place, Manchester-square. I saw her on another occa sion enter Ford's Hotel is Manchester-street, Man chester-squad', and after remaining there for two or three hours she left, unaccompanied by any person, and left London by train for Moulsey, where she was residing. By the Queen's Advocate—lt is quite possible Mrs Cod rington might have only stopped. Frank Stubb, porter at 43, Pall Mall, said—ln October or November of last year Col. Anderson was stoppings there. A lady has called upon the colonel several u she never entered the house. I recollect on one occasion a ca b calling, in which there was a la d y . Col..nderson got in and it drove off. It was the same lady that treed to call, It was about this time that Col. Anderson left the i:otel, as it was said he was going to get married. By the Queen's Advocate —I cannot say positive,? whether it was either October, November, or December. I am sure it was before he went away to get married. William Topp—l am employed by solicitors to make pri vate inquiries. I knew Mrs Codrington. On the 2d of November I saw her soma home alone, on foot. I can't say from what direction she came, as she came from behind the position I had taken up. When she got in the gas was turned off. By the Queen's Advocate—l am what you would call an amateur detective. We charge 9s. a day. I can't toll how I first became acquainted with her. 1 suppose somebody told mo it was her. I asked a girl who sells fruit in the street, who the lady was, and she told me. I had a carte de visite given me of the lady. I watched Mrs Codrington for 20 or 30 days and nights. I commenced in November. The circumstances that were to intimate to me that I might give up watching for the night was that the gas in the hall of the Admiral's hou se should be put out when the lady arrived home. Mr Birch told me the Admiral had arranged that as a signal. Mr John Andersdn, second cousin of Colonel Anderson.... I know the lady the Colonel has married. The ceremony took place at St. Germans, East-Lothian, in the August of last year. Tho writing on the small piece of paper, viz., " Yours truly, D. A.," to the best of my belief is in the h an dwriting of the Colonel. Colonel Anderson is now at Malta with his regiment. Mr Bevil here put in the diary of Mrs Codrington, found in the desk when it was opened in Chester-square. Several the letters were read which related to visit of " D. A." and other engagements. A carte de visits of Mrs Codrington was also handed in, a nd Topp, in answer to questions, admitted that he had never seen Mrs Codrington in the dress she was represented, but he know it was her portrait, as she was a remarkably fine woman, and there could be no mistake about it, (Laughter.) General Codrington also identified the por trait as that of Mrs Codrington, who, he said, was a person of lively and sprightly disposition. Her manners were not that of a foreigner rather than that of an Englishwoman, although she had long resided in Florence. Sho was free, ladylike, and agreeable. Strutt, the porter at 48, Pall- Mall, also identified the portrait as that of the lady who used to call on Col. Anderson while he resided at the hotel. Mrs Watson —I went to Malta in January, 1861, with my husband. We became intimate with the Codringtons. I did not meet Mrs Codrington till August of that year. I never took any meal with the Admiral alone. I never went to the Admiralty House alone when Mrs Codringten was away. At an entertainment given to the Princess of Lein ingen I received the guests, owing to the absence of Mrs Codrington. I never went on board the admiral's ship Asoph alone. Ilrs Codrington seldom slept on board, but the admiral was recommended to do so for his health. There has been nothing improper between myself and the admiral 100 105 34 37 BRITISH YOSSK ISIONS. share 100 Sk Railways A.tlantio & St Lawrence Bom.,BarodalLeent Ind Gu. kper cent... Do. New Do. E.

The buildings suffered greatly by the earthquake, and the church, the hospital, and a large school were reduced to ruins. A vessel lying in the port was com pletely broken up, and others were considerably injured. King George of Greece, during his late tour through his kingdom, requested, on his arrival at Missolonghi, to be shown Byron's tomb. His Majesty was greatly shocked at its dilapidated condition, and gave orders for the immediate repair of the great poet's last resting place, METROPOLITAN CATTLE. There was a large supply of foreign stock on sale here to-day, but the quality of the beasts and sheep was very inferior, about two-thirds of the former being stores, The demand was inactive, at about previous rates. The arrivals of boasts fresh up from our own grazing districts were seasonably good, and in lair average con dition. From Ireland and Scotland the receipts were trifling. Prime Scots, Crosses, Devons, and Herefords, moved off steadily, at full prices, the top figure being ss. for 8 lbs. Otherwise, the beef trade was in a sluggish state en former terms. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire, we received about 2,000 short-horns and crosses; from Norfolk and Suffolk 500 Scots and crosses ; from Scotland 16 Scots and crosses; from Ireland 62 oxen, and from other quarters 700 various breeds. We were tolerably well, but not to say heavily, supplied with sheep. Most breeds came to hand in middling con dition. Prime downs and half-breeds chankod hands steadily, at extreme quotations, but all other breeds were inactive at late rates. The top price for Downs was ss. 4d. for 8 lbs. The show of lambs was only moderate. On the whole the lamb trade was steady, at lull currencies, viz., from 6s. to 7s. per 8 lbs. Prime small calves were in request, at full quotations. Inferior calves were inactive, but not cheaper. We have to report a heavy sale for pigs, at last week's prices. The supply was moderate.

Owiag to the advance in the 13ault lake of discount to The Queen's Advocate said that no such impui been made. Lt ation had At Valetta, Mrs. Codrington and I became intim ate in nursing a sick friend. She said, speaking of Mildosay , that he had an unfortunate attachment for her. I waroed her, but I had no idea of guilt. I was alarmed when ells day she said, " Take no notice, lam going oat." Sin was In as loose dressing gown. I said, " She couldn't do it ; " She said, "He is frantic ; I must see him." I said, " You won't go alone, I will go with you." She said, " I will give it up. I misunderstood her. Sho merely wished to speak to him." I said, " I could no t permit so unwise an action in a friend ;" and she did not go out. Another time she said they had been preparing a screen for a bszaar, and had been sitting up to do it—Mildmay,the Admiral, and Miss Horn. The Admiral had been tired and had gone to bed. In an hour they all retired, Mildmay leaving the house as she had supposed. When she was ready for repose, she had re membered leaving something in the office. She had gone in, and to her horror found Mildmay still there, his head between his hands on the table. She had said to him, " Why are you not gone ?" He had said he was miserable. She tried to soothe him, but ineffectually. Sho had then said to him, " Wait a minute, I will get my dressing gown," and she lay down on the sofa iu the office. He had attempted to use violonoa to her, but she had resisted. and bit him on the cheek. On a third occasion she told me that she had found Mildmay in her room one night. She had asked him to leave the room, but use lessly, and he stayed till early morning. I said— " Did you escape insult ?" She said—" How can you talk such nonsense ? I woke in his arms." My impression was that the seal of infamy was not yet set. At a subsequent period she made another communica tion to me. That communication has never yet passed my lips, as she made me give her an unconscious promise not to repeat it. Now she has subpoenaed mo to this couri, I am released from my promise, and I am bound to speak the truth. On Nov. 13, 1861, Mrs Codrington came to our house. We expected her at 7 ; she was an hour and a half late. She went into my bed room, and sent a message to say she wished to speak to me. Mr Watson, as I was not well, asked her to coma down. After tea I saw her alone. She immediately burst into a fit of weeping. She said Mr Mildmay had walked with her up a lane near our house, and that the deed was committed. When she was in my room she said, " You won't speak of what I tell you." Previously I had implored her to forbid him the house, which she did. She locked up his presents, and I :hoped for reforma tion. The admiral at this time seemed dissatisfied. A coldness arose between ma and Mrs Codrington, and I asked her the reason. She said she was jealous of my in fluence with the children. I said this was absurd, as, before going to Naples she had especially committed them to my care. I looked at her, and at last I said, "Da you think I have told the admiral my confidence ?" She said, " I think you have." I referred the question to the admiral, and he at once denied everything of the kind. There was a scene of a very painful character which passed between myself, the admiral, and his wife. She accused me in his presence of an undue intimacy with him. We were both very indignant. The Admiral went away, and at last she knelt at my feet and said, " Forgive me, forgive me; I don't believe anything of the kind. This scene had been preceded by some report of a similar tenor, which had reached me through a friend. I said I would forgive her if she would give me a written denial of the whole. She told the Admiral of her repentance, and of her disbelief of the reporfs about us. I was not satisfied with the expression "improper intimacy" in her first written apology, and she wrote another. They were written July 11, 1862. I only wish to show these letters to the one friend who mentioned to Ms the report, and I told Mrs Codrington I would return them afterwards to her. I did so. After the confidence made in me, I did not like the tone of her remarks. I could not keeplonger in communication with her, though at first I thought she was penitent. This was in Dec., 1661. Of course, iu society outward appearances was observed between us. Here the court rose. On the learned judge taking his seat this morning, The Queen's Advocate (tor the respondent) said, in her evidence on Saturday, Mrs Watson had made a statement to the effect, that on the evening of the 13th of November, 1861, at Malta, Mrs Codrington had admitted that she had committed adultery with Lieut. Midway. That statement had come up them all by surprise, and he felt, as it had not been previously mentioned in the bill of parti3ulars, it was of the highest importance that some delay or adjournment should take place, because ho was in a condition to state, that by sending to Malta he could obtain evidence which would clearly show that such a state ment was entirely without fouadation. It would be im possible for him; to carry on his case, which was of the most vital interest to the respondent, with such a statement hanging over her, because if that one statement was untrue it would damage the credibility of the rest of the witnesses' evidence. He did not see how the request he had to make could be refused by the counsel for the petitioner. Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., followed on the came side, and con tended that, as the respondent was unable to give her evi dence in court, a was fair that every facility should be given to her to disprove the charges made against her. Mr Bovill (tor the petitioner) objected to an adjournment. The Judge Ordinary suggested, as the matter had come upon all by surprise, it might be so arranged that, as there were two distinct branches to the case, that against Colonel Anderson might be proceeded with. It was of the highest importance to all parties that all the facts should be elicited. Perhaps a consultation might facilitate the matter. The learned counsel then loft the court for a short time, but on their return Mr Bovill said he was compelled to say he could not agree to abandon any portion of the case. He also felt bound to ask the learned judge to go on. His learned friends had subpoenaed Mrs Watson, and they ought not now to ask for adjournment. The Judge Ordinary said adjournments in such painful cases as the present were always to be deplored, but the statement made by the witness became a very important element in the case, Neither side seemed to have been aware of the statement made by Mrs Watson until last Saturday, and it was important it should be considered. It was said that the statement was utterly untrue, but as the matter stood it most seriously affected the case with respect to Lieut. Mildmay, It was therefore desirable to know whether Mrs Codrington had sail that which had been imputed to her, and an opportunity ought to be given to have the matter clearly settled. Lieut. Mildmay might not have been at Malta at the exact period mentioned. Either Mrs Codrington did or did not make the statement, and it was important that point should be settled, as it would materially affect Mrs Watson's evidence. Suppose a case that the jury had given a verdict fur the plaintiff. On the first opportunity the Queen's Advocate Would come into court, and on the ground of surprise, ask for a new trial. He would say hare is a matter which sprung up during the trial and which had influenced the decision of the jury, and here are sworn affidavits showing the matter to be untrue. Under the rule of the Court, a rule for a new trial would be granted. and he considered the Queen's Advocate, in the objection he had made now, was placed exactly in the same position as he would occupy when asking for a new trial. It was a cause of regret that there should be any delay, yet there was no help for it ; and he therefore should postpone the further hearing until next term. He thought it would be convenient if the form of the order to be applied for was at once stated. The Queen's Advocate said he should merely ask for the order to examine certain witnesses at Malta. The Judge Ordinary directed that the witnesses should be examined by interrogatories and not viva voce, because by that means the exact particle of evidence wanted would h t : got at without having a great deal of matter which was not o: the slightest utility.

He made the defendant dismount and took him into custody, and sent the horse home to the defendant's master. Mr Tyrwhitt inquired if the defendant had been bailed, and the park constable said he had not. The defendant said he was sorry for what had occurred ? Mr Tyrwhitt said the defendant's conduct was highly dangerous, and that it a man wag unfit to ride the horse soon found it out. He should fine the defendant de, and would have fined him a great deal more bat that he had been locked up.

The Goodwood meeting was one of the most successful that has ever taken place, both as regards the large fields for the various races and the number of fashionable and aristocratic visitors. The Prince and Princess of Wales arrived early on Wednesday. The first race was the Trial Stakes, for which Fairwater was made the favourite, but the old mare could only get third, Anglo-Saxon, who was patiently ridden by Fordham, winning on the post by a short head. Lord 'Westmoreland pulled off the 10 sovs Sweepstakes with Lady of Coverham, The Levant, from the absence of Liddington, was an open race, despite the re putation of the French Le Mandarin. Longdown, Drewitt'a representative, was the finest looking young one of the lot— an extraordinarily big eolt, with fine quarters, own brother to Blackdown ; but he looked a trifle unprepared, and there fore his evident merits were passed over by the knowing ones, who went for the Frenchman and nothing else. He cut badly, and the Lewes horse won all the way. He was backed for the Derby, after the race, at 30 to 1, and Le Mandarin's pretensions to the blue riband are, we pre sume, sent to the right-about. Then came the event of the day, the Stewards' Cup, for which the large number of 40 horses was telegraphed. Breaks away, in which Lady Clifden principally distinguished herself, became at last too numerous to take count of, and we sat down on the roof of the stand and waited as we best might, until the roar of many voices proclaimed the welcome " They are off." Of course there were a large number backed, Saccharometer, who had been favourite at the first publication of the weights, yielding the pas to Marigold, who made her first appearance after a long seclusion, and fully justified the confidence her noble owner and his friends placed in her. She was in the front rank from the first, and though Flying Fish looked like a winner at the enclosure, she died away to nothing at the half distance, and to Marigold, Argonaut, and Crisis was the issue left. It was a race, though Lord Westmoreland's mare had always the best of it, and she won with comparative ease. Saccharometer was never in it, and there was considerable tailing among the field. Loud cheers greeted Lord "Westmoreland's success, and we are glad so handsome a trophy fell to him. He also gained more substantial results from the mare's success, and landed a good stake. She was in splendid condition, and won like a racer. The first event decided on Wed nesday was the Drawing Room Stakes, which Knight of Snowdon won. Fordham again distinguished himself in the 300 soles Sweepstakes, on Idler, upsetting a very hot favourite in Ascham, on whom they laid sto 4. At the distance Fordham brought up his horse, reached Ascham at the stand, and won another splendid race by a head. There was a woful fa.ling off for the Stakes, when the seven indifferent performers made their appearance, took their preliminary canter, and then marched slowly past the stand in Indian file. Thalestris, after she had taken her canter, was not so warm a favourite as before. The verdict on her was not favourable, but she still maintained her position in the betting from no one being able to select a winner from the other six. "William the Silent looked the best goer of the lot. Mr Parr's horse was improved in appearance, but still few fancied him. There has not been another instance of a horse starting with odds on him or her for the Good wood Stakes, and suffering such easy defeat, as Lord Coventry's worthless jade did here. She made the running at a p_ce which, as the lot rounded the hill, became " a clinker," and on their coming into the turn for home, they were all together ; soon, afterwards, how ever, Thalestris was evidently in difficulties, and the race left to Guerilla, Blondin, and the Frenchman, Mr Parr's horse winning with ease by half a length, amidst the up roarious cheers of the fielders. Never was so great a favourite so disgracefully beaten. Deerfoot and Olivia made a fine finish of it in the Handicap Plate over the Craven Course, the former winning by a head in the last stride. The Findon brought out Zambezi to try conclu sions with the Derby outsider, Ostregor, and Kcenig, and see if the 51k extra was not too much for him. Ostregor is a fine upstanding colt, with a great deal of promise about him, and was backed by some money. Zambezi tried under the weight; and Ostregor, running very gamely, got the race out of the fire in the last stride by a head. The Cup Day was again honoured with the Prince and Princess of Wales. After Old Orange Girl walked over for the Twelfth Bentinck Memorial Stakes, three entered an appearance for the Thirteenth Bentinck, which was ex pected to produce an exciting straggle between Ely and Baragah. Odds were freely laid on the former, but he never had the ghost of a chance, as the latter made all the running, and won, hands down, by six lengths, Baragah was afterwards backed for large sums for the St. Leger, and it will take the favourites all their time to dispose of him. He is ono of the best bred horses in the race, and is better worth investing on at his present price than any other, as John Scott is very fortunate in winning St. Legers. the Cup was an easy victory for Dollar. The Chesterfield Cup was won by King of Utopia, who only managed to beat Skeffington by a neck, The Brighton Meeting commences to-morrow. Madcap, if it runs, will win the Brighton Stakes. Birchbroom should ' win the Champagne Stakes, Caller Ou the Brighton Cup, and Fille de l'Air the 12th Brighton Biennial. A FRESH MAN. RACING FIXTI Au 'RES FOR 1864. iUST.

DROUGHT IN THE MIDLAND COUNTIES.—Very gewer al complaints are made in the counties of Notts, Derby, Lincoln, and Leicester of the continued want of rain. The Trent is lower than has been known for seve ral years, and the pasture lauds are as bare almost as the high roads. Allusion was made to the subject in numerous pulpits on Sunday last.
