It is supposed that after having seen the King to-day he will return to his province. We announce at the same time the urinal and the departurkl of M. d'Huart. It may be easily inferred from this that AL. d'Huart has thought that he could not accept the commission. of reconstructing the Cabinet, offered him by his Majesty. This circumstance has been foreseen for some days. It seems that in the present state of things any attempt to effect a defi nitive reconstitution of the Ministry would only add to the existing embarrassments, instead of removing them. While the Chambers are not sitting, and in the midst of the fermen tation of people's minds, there is no clear indication of the spirit in which the Administration must be re-organised to preserve it in harmony with the majority. It is therefore the duty of the Ministers to remain in office for the present, only it is to be wished that the convocation of the Chambers may take place as soon as possible. In the sitting of the 14th inst., the Directing Committee of the railroad Company from Namur to Leige, proceeded to ap point definitively its officers and to fix their emolunients. Mr. G. Rennie was appointed chief engineer. of the Cots. parry. Mr. G. Pinchbeck, as engineer, residing in Belgium; with two sub-engineers. Mr. Edward de Moor, as inspector oi l the lines of the Company, and Mr. W. Reynolds, as President g e ld Director. The second instalment will be paid immediately, widths works commence simultaneously.

The Provisional Directors deem it due to the Shareholders to in form them, that the failure of the measure in the present session has been occasioned by circumstances over which the Directors had no control, and not at all affecting the merits of the projected line, which was established by the evidence before the Committee. The Provi sional Directors have under their consideration arrangements in connexion with the more extended project of the Coventry and Lei cester Railway Company, which will provide the best accommoda tion for all the local interests, and which they confidently expect will secure the success of both measures in the next session, with results more favourable to the Shareholders, than could have be i realised by the passing of the Bill in the present session.

The places brought in direct communication with this line will be, Ascot, Bracknell, Sunninghill, Bagshot, the Royal Military College at Sandhurst, Blackwater, Frimley, and Farnborough ; all of them places of considerable resort, lying on the route from London to the most fashionable summer retreat in the United Kingdom. The ad vantages of this line are obvious ; even without the facility of a ra pid or direct communication, the pleasure traffic and business inter course of these places are already very large, and it is reasonable to anticipate that the establishment of a railway will not only increase the traffic in the usual ratio, but that it will draw off and concen- The Right Hon. the EARL of DEVON, the President, in the chair.

The whirlwind rushed ; the hailstorm poured ; The earthquake shook ; the ocean roared. The lightning flashed, and the thunder rolled, As Merlin stood, in the days of old, And thus to King Arthur prophesied, On the things which to England would betide:— " When on Britain's throne there sits a Queen. And London pav'd with wood is seen ; When the muse her temple lends to aid The sacred struggle for Free Trade, On Ludgate's mighty hill shall rise, To fix a wond'ring nation's eyes, A firm of Brothers—SAMUEL nam'd--- Who soon through Europe shall be fam'd. The Trade of the City they'll cease to increase, And shape the Saxon and British fleece In Raiment rare at such trifling cost That men in amazement will be lost!! AN ORIGINAL PLAN these Brothers will trace Which enamoured Commerce will swift embrace, And by means of which the country wide Shall clothe like nobles in their pride : let drain no more from their money bags • Than if they wore the coarsest rags !"

This line of railway will commence near the Syston Station on the , Midland Counties line, and proceed near the Charnwood Forest, and no as to take in the collieries of Bagworth, lbstock, Whitwick, and i's;% Snibston, and proceed to Cole Orton and Ashby-de-la-Zouch, thence tt,,, near Swadlincote, Galesly Potteries, and the course of the projected • Burton and Moira Canal to Burton-upon-Trent, whence, crossing the 1: 4 " • Trent, it will skirt the Needwood Forest near Tatenhill, Hamstall, 1 , • Redware, Bsithebury, and Colton, to the proposed junction of the I North Staffordshire Potteries line with the Trent Valley Railway at Colwich, about four miles from Stafford. ) A short branch from Burton up the Dove Valley, to join the,.3lac -1, elesfleld and Derby line between Burton and Uttoxeter, is contem , Vated, and, in the event of a line beiog carried from Manchester to herby by way of Uttoxeter, the part of this nue between Burton and •-. Leicester would complete, by its junction with the p ro j ec t e d L e i ces t er • and Bedford Railway, a direct route from London to Manchester. As an independent line, looking to its own local traffic as a source of revenue, it traverses a country of extraordinary mineral wealth, passing near the most southern coal field in the kingdom accessible to London, from which is pro duced the finest quality of coal. Cannel coal, ironstone, and pot clay, granite and limestone abound in that portion of the line which skirts the Charnwood Forest to Ashby, and which require increased facilities of conveyance ; to these it will afford a transit as well as a market. Between Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Bur ton-upon -Trent are the Great Breedon and Ticknall limeworks, and the Swadlincote and Griesly Potteries. Also the extensive coal fields of Ashby, Moira, Newhall, and Swadlincote, abounding in coal of the hest quality, which, by means of this railroad, will find its way into the London market, a desideratum of very great advantage, and long wished to be attained. To Burton it will convey the corn and barley o Lincoln, Northampton, Norfolk, and the agricultural districts of the east, as well as afford a ready conveyance to the produce of the important breweries of Burton. From Cambridge, Ely, Norwich, Yarmouth, Lynn, Peterborough, and L i ncoln, this will be the shortest route to the Leicestershire, Stafford ahiee, and Shropshire iron and coal fields, to the Burton breweries, to North and South Wales, and Ireland. By means of the short line up the Dove Valley, and its junction with the proposed North Stafford ' shire Railway, this will be the most direct communication from the tzst to the north-western manufacturing districts, and to Birken bead by way of Crewe and Chester ; indeed, it may be called the k 7. -3- or trunk line of the central counties of England. It is impossible to over-estimate the importance of this railway as ! junction line. It will unite, near the Syston Station with the Mid " and Counties and the proposed Cambridge, Peterborough and Melton It lines, and the contemplated Bedford and L e i ces t er R a il w ay. at will also for goods and passengers coming from the eastern coun t-lea (the destination of which may be Manchester, Liverpool, North wales, or the north-west of England generally) avoid the angles and C ircuitous routes necessarily made at present either by going round by Derby on the one hand or Rugby on the other. On the west it will join at Colwich the Trent Valley and the pro- Dosed North Staffordshire Potteries line ; and at Stafford it will unite 'With the lines for Liverpool, Manchester, the Potteries, Chester, Bir kenhead, and Holyhead. The estimated profit from internal resources Is expected to be very treat. The town of Burton-on-Trent is a place of more importance as re , ?Ws the amount of its traffic than many places of four-fold size. It u computed that about 50,000/. a year is paid for carriage alone t" ttid from tha town. Its extensive breweries are chiefly supplied with arley from the country lying between Boston and Northampton. e shipping ports for its beer are London and Liverpool, and these ~wits, with Manchester, are the chief markets for its home trade. eariy two-thirds, therefore, of its whole manufactures, and of the raw materials it draws from distant parts, wou ld p ass i n o ne three °ll or another along this line of r a il way . Th roug h ou t th e li ne there „ :• 4 t : a great demand for lime and coal. The Pottery manufactories of ii:; t eCY and Swadlincote would supply a large amount of traffic to the e as well as the North Staffordshire Potteries to the eastern coon .es and ports. _in the allotment o f s h ares l oca l i n t eres t s w ill be first considered. zio ornamental property appears to intersect the line, and many Cr the landowners have given it their support. ENGINEER—J. U. Rastrick, C.E. BANKERS. This railway will secure the whole traffic from London to Ascot, in conj unction with the London and Windsor Railway, and open a new source of revenue to the shareholders in that company. The traffic of passengers from the metropolis to Ascot during the race week, from authentic sources, is estimated at 8,000/., in addition to which an increase may be calculated upon from Winchester, Southampton, Portsmouth, the Isle of Wight, and places adjacent to Ascot; and also confer a benefit upon the Shareholders in the South-Western Railway Company. The Windsor, Ascot, and Farnborough Line therefore may be described as a junction, which must be productive of a large revenue to the two lines it will unite; deriving from each advantages of corresponding value. Another striking feature of profit and utility embraced in this line will be, direct communication between London and the Royal Mili tary College at Sandhurst ; the number of persons interested in that great national establishment will thus be provided with rapid and easy means of transit, while the facility must tend to increase the traffics considerably beyond tke usual average. This railway will also complete a direct route io the Isle of Wight, which is every day increasing in fashionable reFutation, in conse quence of the frequent visits of royalty, and her Majesty's selection of the island for a summer residence, the population of which is daily augmenting under the influence of these propitious cir cumstances. The facility of conveyance to and from the kennel of the royal stag-hounds may also be referred to as one of the exclusive advan tages of this line. And in addition to the sources of profit already indicated, consider able stress may be laid upon the amount which will be derived from the supply of coals and conveyance of heavy goods to the towns through or near to which this line will pass, which are at present, for the most part, supplied by an expensive land carriage from the canal at Basingstoke, or the Farnborough station of the South- Western Railway, or from the river Thames at Windsor or Kingston. No tunnel or viaduct will be necessary, and the gradients of the line will be peculiarly easy. All usual and proper clauses for limiting the liability' of Share holders to the amount of their respective Shares, will be provided tbe by the Bill. . . _ Applications for Shares to be made in the usual form to the Soli citor, Mr. G.

Office of the Company, 14, Birchin-lane, Lombard-street, London. The formation of a railway from Nottingham to Boston is, unques tionably, of the greatest importance to the whole of the districts and towns which it will connect, and will prove highly advantageous to the manufacturing and agricultural interests. By reference to the map of England, it will be seen that Boston is only about forty-eight miles from Nottingham, while all other sea-ports, on the east coast, are at a much greater distance from Nottingham. A very great traffic already exists between Boston and Nottingham, which may be increased almost to an incalculable amount when the facilities of railway transit are completed. The export trade from Boston is now comparatively limited, by the want of means of conveyance from the manufacturing districts, which this railroad will supply. Boston is situate in the midst of the finest land in the kingdom; and this part of Lincolnshire may be justly termed the garden of the manufacturing district of England. The produce of the whole dis trict, particularly Its wheat, is consumed in the large manufacturing towns ; and the carriage of corn and cattle, to the great centres of population, will alone furnish a constant and certain source of revenue. In addition to this, a large traffic will be carried along the line, in manufactured goods, and in coal and lime from the Nottingham shire and Derbyshire coal fields, to rural districts through which it passes, and to the shore of the German Ocean; the latter traffic is yet to be developed, and with the cheap transit provided by this line the important article of coal will compete at a great advantage to the consumer with the prcsent supply, which is now brought by sea from Newcastle. A very considerable amount of the vast staple produce of Notting nam, Derby, Loughborough, Leicester, and the neighbourhood, which is exported to Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Germany, and All other parts of the Baltic, is now conveyed by a circuitous and expensive route to Hull and London, and thence, after repeated removals by ship or steamer, to its destination; whereas, on the completion of this line, it would be transmitted direct to Boston, and thence to the be fore-mentioned places, in much less time, and at a much less expense. Boston is not only the nearest seaport town to Nottingham, but it is the natural seaport of the manufacturing towns of the whole of the midland district, and it is the most convenient, safest, and best situated on the eastern coast, for the shipment and transhipment of merchandise. By recent improvements the river, or arm of the sea, which runs through the centre of the town, has been widened and deepened, thus affording means for vessels of from three to four hun dred tons burthen, to take in and discharge their cargoes at the wharf-side, without risk or damage, an object of importance not only in point of security to the goods, but also in the saving of expense usually incurred for lighter charges. The nature of the country through which the line will pass is most favourable in its facilities for construction : it is nearly all a dead level. The cost of construction will be as low as that of any line in the kingdom ; and the Company will not have to encounter the opposi tion of the owners of the land and estates through which the line will pass, they being, as far as can be ascertained, most favourably dis posed towards the undertaking. It will be seen that the proposed line combines all the elements of a profitable railway ; it has a seaport town at one of the termini ; it passes through a rich and productive agricultural district, to the great seats of manufacture and consumption, each being a certain source of traffic ; and it affords ready communication with the southern, northern, and midland counties. It is intended to apply for power in the Act to allow four per cent. interest upon deposits, until the completion of the line. Applications for shares may be made in the subjoined form, at the Office of the Company, 14, Birchin-lane, Lombard-street, London; or to the Solicitors. No person need apply for shares unless the application is accom panied by an unexceptionable reference. A certain number of shares will be reserved for owners of land on the line, and for parties resident in the locality through which the line will pass. FORM OF APPLICATION.

B. aBouGH, Seeretary. The morn line of this important undertaking will commence at the abrupt termination of the Macclesfield branch of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and proceed thence in an almost direct line to a point on the Trent Valley Railway near to Atherstone, and about fifteen miles north-west of Rugby. It will therefore embrace in its course the towns of Leek, Cheadle, Tean, Littoxeter, Tutbury, and Burton-upon-Trent, the coal-fields and Potteries of Swadlincote and Gresley, and the baths and coal fields of Moira, the whole of which wealthy and important tract of country (with the exception of the town of Burton) is wholly destitute of railway accommodation. From Tean it is intended to construct a branch through the Staf fordshire Potteries by way of Longton, Lane End, Stoke-upon-Trent, and Newcastle-under-Lyre, to Crewe and Nantwich, uniting at Crewe with the numerous railways centering there, and joining at Nantwich the railways about to be formed by the conversion of the Ellesmere and Chester, and Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canals. It is also intended to construct a branch from the main line, at or near Tutbury to Derby. Such is the project, comprising the best parts of the old and well known " Manchester South Union" Scheme, which, in the year 1836, elicited from a Committee of the House of Commons the most un qualified expressions of approval, and which an inspection of the map of the country will show to be highly desirable, indeed almost India. pensable for the public interest. It will open a shorter communication from Manchester, Stockport, and Macclesfield, to London (by Rugby), and from Derby (and the towns northward) to London, than any other line now before the public. It will unite Manchester with Derby, Nottingham, Leicester, and the whole of the Midland and Eastern Counties. It will afford to Nottingham, Leicester, Derby, and Burton-upon- Trent, the most direct communication with the Staffordshire Potteries, Crewe, Chester, Runcorn, Liverpool, and the new Docks at Birken head, as well as with North Wales and Ireland. By its means the towns of Leak, Cheadle, Teen, tTttoxeter, Tut bury, and the surrounding country, will receive, for the first time, the benefits of railway communication, and the rich and extensive coal fields of Biddulph, Poynton, Adlington, Cheadle, Gresley, Swadlin cote. and Moira, will be opened to the whole kingdom. The traffic must necessarily be immense, and the returns highly remunerative. Thus the Committee are enabled to bring forward a legitimate and independent undertaking, having due regard to a profitable invest ment of capital, as well as to the interest and accommodation of the public. The Committee desire to add, that in presenting, in its present shape, their complete and comprehensive scheme independently of another Railway not actually formed, or now under the consideration of Parliament, they are not influenced by a wish to supplant other parties who may have a legitimate claim to any portion of the ground they propose to occupy, but simply by a desire to form a shorter com munication between the great towns of Lancashire, Cheshire, and Staffordshire, and the Metropolis and the Midland and Eastern Coun ties, and to secure to a great district yet unopened, that Railway accom modation which its wealth and importance demand, whatever may be the fate of other projects which may have in view the partial or im perfect attainment of somewhat similar objects. Powers will be taken in the Act to allow interest at the rate of 4/. per cent. per annum on all deposits and calls until the opening of the Line. Applications for Shares may be addressed to the Solicitors ; or to the following Sharebrokers, viz. :—Messrs. Tucker, Barnett, and Co., Messrs. Barry and Co., or Mr. D. B. Major, London ; Messrs. Earp and Son, Derby; Messrs. Scholes and Horsfall, Messrs. Fletcher and Shit' p, or Mr. John Greaves, Liverpool ; Messrs. T. Cardwell and Sons, Manchester ; Messrs.

CHIN U' S WORM-DESTROYING LO ZENGES have for Fifty Years held a distinguished reputa tion, and are still and increasingly patronised by the highest names in r. nk, respectability, and science, from a personal knowledge of their utility in their own families. _ _ It is a fact established by the annual Bills of Mortality, that one half of the children born are cut off before attaining Seven years o f age, and the fruitful source of this mortality is found to exist in that foul state of the Stomach and Bowels which produces the generation of Worms. The symptoms usually are los' of appetite, a paleness of colour of the face, emaciated and irregular sate of the bowels, attended with violent pain. They bring on convulsions ; they affect the growth of the body; and they prove fatal by ending in a consumption or decay. As the certain restorer of infantine health, in this critical stat e .

OWLAND'S ODONTO, or PEARL DEN TIFRICE. 2.‘ A Fragrant White Powder, prepared from Oriental Herbs of ines timable virtue for preserving and beautifying the TEETH and strengthening the GUMS. It eradicates the factitious formation of tartar, and thus lends a salutary growth and freshness to the gums. It removes from the surface of the teeth the spots of incipient decay, polishes and pre serves the enamel, imparting the most pure and pearl-like whiteness ; while from its salubrious and disinfecting qualities, it gives sweetness and perfume to the breath. Being an anti-scorbutic, the gums also share in its corrective powers ; scurvy , is eradicated from them, a healthy action and redness are induced, so that the teeth (if loose) are thus rendered firm in their sockets. As the mast efficient and 7agrant aromatic cleanser and preserver of the teeth and gums ever known, ROWLAND'S ODONTO has for a long series of years occu pied a distinguished place at the toilets of the Sovereigns and the No bility throughout Europe, while the general demand for it at once an nounces the favour in which it is held by the public at large. Price 2s. 9d. per box, duty included. CAUTION.—To protect the Public from fraud, the Hon. Commis sioners of Stamps have directed the Proprietors' Signature to be en graved on the Government Stamp, thus— A. ROWLAND and SON, 20, Hatton-garden, which is affixed on each box.

(From the Times.) y"he vast importance of the motion, made last night by Mr. Cobden, for a Commission to inquire into the expediency of an uniform gauge on all railways may, in some degree, be estimated by considering the extent of lines already laid down and projected, the enormous expense incurred and in tended, and the certainty that the whole kingdom will in time be striped and laced with iron. That it would be de sirable to avoid the impediments that would arise from " breaks," or changes from one gauge to a different one in the same journey, we have not found any one to deny, although there has been found one to question whether the evil weld be so great as we, and most with us, think it would be. But we must bear in mind that gentleman speaks under a consi derable amount of bias ; he has constructed a most important railway on a plan differing from all others, and he now makes it his business to uphold that plan, and prevent its being made to give way to the plan that preponderates, by endea vouring to show that the two can exist very well together. He says, therefore, that he could rea dily trans f er th e cargo of a whole train to a line of a different gauge in a minute and a half. Even if he could do this, it would be much better to be spared the trouble ; but we feel that we are not bound implicitly to rely on all the calcula tions of the projector of the Menai tube. Independently of the principal advantage of having all carriages equally ap plicable to all railways, and so avoiding stoppages and the moving and shifting of luggage, the benefit of uniformity would be felt on railways in their statistics, such as the cal culations of excavating them, &c. In all the mechanical arts uniformity is adhered to, except where there are some strong reasons to justify a deviation. Mr. Cobden's motion embraces three points,—First, as to an uniform gauge to be secured in all future railways ; second, as to the practica bility of bringing all railways already constructed or in pro gress into one gauge ; and third, as to the mode of obviating the evil of the continuance of different gauges. The first proposition is not only the one of the most consequence, but in effect it disposes of the other two ; for, if it should be conceded, and if all future railways should be made on either the broad gauge or on the narrow gauge, the one which would then remain as a mere case of exception would ulti mately be compelled to conform. Mr. Cobden says either the broad or the narrow would do very well, either 7 feet or 4 feet 8 inches and a-half ; Mr. Shaw is for the Irish medium of 5 feet 3 inches ; possibly, 6 feet might be as good as any. But the matter is not res inteqra ; a very great quantity of railway has been made, of expense has been in curred ; and, therefore, if Mr. Cobden is right in saying either would do very well, it would follow that the adoption of a new system, discarding both, would sacrifice all that would do very well. The question, then, naturally arises, how to attain uniformity with the smallest sacrifice of that which will do ve r y we ll ; an d here the narrow gauge has many advantages over its rival, and many arguments in its favour. In the fi rs t pl ace , i t a l ready, in length of line, exceeds the broad gauge four-fold. Then, it is less expensive in its construction throughout, especially in trying situations, such as tunnels and b r id ges . Th e f act of i ts being so much more employed is a proof how much this consideration operates. Moreover, as the great dog could go through the great hole only, but the little dog could go through the great hole and the little hole both, the narrow gauge could be laid down on lines constructed for the broad gauge, bat the broad gauge could not be applied to lines made only for the narrow gauge without new embanking, new cutting, new bridges, new tunnels. Why Sir G. Clerk should declare it to be absolutely impracticable and impossible to alter the gauge we cannot guess, and he does not say. The argument offered on behalf of the broad gauge, to show that, if uniformity is to be insisted on, the reference should be given to the width of seven feet, is that it is safer. The return of accidents, however, does not confirm this view; and, moreover of the accidents that have occurred a great majority have arisen from causes unconnected with the breadth of gauge, such as the falling in of embankments and the running of one t ra i n or eng i ne against another. On all these points the attention of the Commission will be be stowed, we doubt not, as " laboriously" as Mr. Shaw can de sire, and we rejoice that Mr. Cobden asked for, and that the Government agreed to, a Commission out of the House, rather than a Committee of Members in the House. Much will depend on the judicious selection of this body, which should comprise men of science and philosophy as well as practical engineers; fur this is not like a mere question of section or of gradient, it is one on which Herschell or Bab bage might assist Cubitt or Stephenson. IRELAND. Dust's, JUNK 24.—The Roman Catholic prelates assail bit d this day at Maynooth College, to consider the arrange ments rendered necessary by the increase of the grant, and the altered circumstances of the institution. A Mayneoth corre spondent of the Freeman's Journal states that the delibera tions of the prelates will probably embrace the following sub jects:— " 1. The indispensable arrangements consequent upon the altered cirzumstances of the College under the new endow ment which it has pleased our rulers to bestow upon this im portant national institution. " 2. What will be done with the present College—will it be enlarged or abandoned, and a new one erected ? "3. The consideration of the Academical Education Bill, and the demeanour of the Ministry towards the prelates, as evinced in dealing with their memorial. " The whole of the Catholic visitors will be present, with perhaps the exception of the Earl of Fingal, who is on the Continent, and the Earl of Kenmire, who, I have been in formed, is in England. Mr: Corballis will attend, so also will Mr. Strong Hussey and Sir Patrick Bellew. Lord Ffrench arrived to -day in company with the Archbishop of Tuam and the Bishop of Elphin. " There is one matter connected with the arrangements consequent on the endowment which will demand much con sideration. At present, there are several students in the in stitution who are maintained by bourses founded by pious donors, the selection of appointees to which vests in the bishops of the respective dioceses of which the founders were spiritual subjects. These bourses have been established on die same basis as regards pension with the rate hitherto exist ing under the limited Government grant. They do not, we believe, much exceed 201. a year. "At present, there are upon an annual average in the college 440 students of all classes; under the new arrangement, pro vision will be made for 500. There will, therefore, be in future upon the Government foundation alone, a larger number of students than there are at present maintained by the Govern ment grant, together with the boursers from the several dioceses. Henceforward, those bourses will not be adequate to maintain the parties presented, without eking them out by pensions, and it is tolerably evident th a t, un d er t h ose circum stances, few will be anxious to obtain presentations. How, therefore, will those bourses be disposed of?" MIGRATION.-974 passengers arrived here on Fri• day from England and France.— New York Herald. PEDESTRIANISM EXTRAORDINARY.— On Tuesday last a youth, about twenty years of age, named George Frost, alias Snowy, yclept the " Suff o lk Ch amp i on, " performed the four following astonishing feats for a subscription purse, up on a measured piece of ground near th e Crown Commercial Inn, at Disc, half a mile out and half a mile in, to the astonishment of several hundeds of spectators, viz.:- 1 mile in 4 minutes and 50 seconds, 2 miles in 10 minutes and 27 seconds. 3 miles in 16 minutes and 33 seconds, 4 miles in 22 minutes and 40 seconds, Thus doing the 10 miles in 54 minutes and 30 seconds ! The above performances are considered unparalleled in the annals of local pedestrianism ; and if a metropolitan adventurer were to match himself against the youth, our correspondent asserts the probability is, he would, at its termination, look rather blue to find himself considerably in the rear of the " Suffolk Champion !" TROTTING MATCH FOR 20 L — Wednesday the match between Mr. Barton's and Mr. Dean's horses, to trot in har ness two miles for 101. aside, came off on the Streatham-road. Mr. Dean's horse has acquired some celebrity for trotting, and was the favourite at starting. At the start Mr. Barton's horse took the lead, which he continued, and covered the first mile in 3 minutes and 28 seconds ; at the termination of the neat half mile he broke, and was pulled in. Mr. Dean then took the lead, which he maintained the remaining distance, and came in first by 150 yards. The two miles of road were accomplished by the winner in 6 minutes and 54 seconds.
