They infer from his speech that there must exist in England some latent against France, or such expressions of distrust in her intentions would not be indulged in. The Siecle, however, in remarking on the speech, says— " There is, as usual, some exaggeration, but there is a great foundation of truth in what was said by the Noble Lord. The Straits are no longer an obstacle on which England can de hend as it could before the introd uc ti on o f s t eam : our fl eets ave at Chet bourg and Brest a secure shelter against the attacks of an enemy : England may consider itself, with great truth, threatened with a disembarkation in the event of a contest with France. But we have not a navy in every respect superior to that of Great Britain, and our steam fleet is not sufficient to transport two hundred and ninety thousand men. Without reckoning that an army of that size would be needless for a descent, we know that 40,000 men disembarked on the coast of England, with sufficient stores and ammunition, would maintain itself easily there during the whole time necessary to receive reinforcements by the new mode of navigation. The Emperor wished to go to London with 70,000'men ; an army of from 74y 00 to bO,OOO men would be sufficient at the present day against a country where the people are in flagrant hostility with the aristocracy, and where battalions do not start up at once, whatever may happen." In relation to the means possessed by Great Britain of repelling invasion, it adds— MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

As to the militia, Mr. Pitt armed it, and placed but little dependence upon it—first, on account of the state of pub lic feelii:g; and, secondly, on account of the difficulty that all Englishmen have in contracting military habits. But we now only wish to point out that, by holding a lofty attitude towards England, we can oblige our neighbours to expend fifty or sixty millions additional francs annually to place their land forces on a footing to give us battle on the soil of Great Britain itself. A struggle between England and France will henceforth be as much a continental as tl maritime war." Thu annexation of Texas is also the subject of com ment. The Opposition journals are loud in their con demnations of M. GUIZOT for having co-operated with England in endeavouring to prevent annexation. The ConAi tutionnel looks upon the whole as a matter of bar gain and sale. The Texans were in debt, and have sold themselves to the highest bidder. The Courrier Francais says— " We imagine that Mexico will not engage in a war with the United States in order to retake Texas. As to England, no doubt she will resign herself to it, and our Ministry will follow the example of that of Sir R. Peel. But now that the Texas question has been resolved, there still remains that of Oregon, and we shall be much astonished if the British Go vernment does not seize the occasion to be avenged for this late defeat." According to the Moniteur Algerien of the 26th, Mar shal BUGEAUD embarked for Delges on the 28th to take the command of the expedition against BEN SALEM. Colenel PELISSIER is to accompany the Marshal in this expedition. JOINT STOCK BANK. Provincial of Ireland ... 25 We extract the following from the France Alyerienne— " A violent animosity subsisted for a length of time between the Sendjes and the Sheah tribes, the latter of whom have always resisted our troops. They lately, after having endea voured to assassinate by night Si Mohammed, who was set over part of the division of Orleansville by the French, committed an act of odious treason. Colonel de St. Amand had sent an escort of honour of thirty spahis to Hadj Hamed, the French agha of the Sendjes, for the marriage of his son. The Sheah having found apart from their comrades several of the spahis who accompanied the tax collector, killed them, and then taking off their red burnous, put them on . themselves. Thus disguised, the wearers came on at the head of about three hundred of the tribe to meet our agha of the Sendjes. Perceiving the red burnous at the head of the band, he supposed it was his colleagues of the Makhzen coming to pay their compliments to him on the occasion of the marriage. Under cover of this disloyal impo sition, the Sheahs came up to within pistol-shot, and then dis charged their muskets at the band. The agha fell dead on the instant, and with him two caids, and about ten others. The spahis, notwithstanding their disproportionate numbers, made a brave defence, and got away, at last, with the loss of only five men. A body of between two hundred and three hundred armed men on foot, who were lying in ambush, fired upon the rear of the agha's party at the same time that it was attacked in front."

It appears that the young bride, with several women, and the whole of the baggage, fell into the hands of the assailants. Marshal BUGEAUD has decreed the transpor tation of the tribe, and the confiscation of their territory. The proposed visit of the Queen of ENGLAND to the Rhine wears to have excited some apprehensions in the minds of French diplomatists. La France says:— " The French Cabinet feels somewhat alarmed, and has instructed its political agents to collect every rumour that may transpire round the royal residences. The Cabinet of the Tuileries still remembers the 15th of July, 1840, and views with apprehension a conference which may regulate without its participation the affairs of the peninsula." The Mon<teur announces that the Minister of Public Works has fixed the 9th of September, at half-past two in the afternoon, to the day when the Great Northern Railroad, with its branch lines from Lille towards Calais and Dunkirk, is to be publicly adjudicated. The adju dication of the branch line from Fampoux to Hazebruck is to take place at the same time. The Prince and Princess DE JOINVILLE arrived at the Tuileries on Friday, and were to remain there until the departure of the Royal Family for Eu, which is fixed for to-day. DREADFUL EXPLOSION. LOSS OF TWENTY-NINE LIVES. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) An explosion of fire-damp, by which 29 human beings lost their lives, took place on Saturday last at a colliery belonging to Mr. Thos. Powell, situated at Crombach, about three miles distant from the village of Aberdare, and six from Merthyr Tydvil. About eleven o'clock a loud report, attended with a violent concussion of the earth was heard, which caused the people of the neighbouring houses to direct their attention towards the pit, and in a very short time the awful fact became known that an explosion of fire-damp had occurred. The consternation which ensued may h, more easily imagined than described, when it is known that three were in the pit at the time from one hundred and fifty to two hundred human beings, men and boys, and the awful uncertainty that existed, how many, if any, were alive. Language cannot describe the mournful lesson. The wailing of women, and the crying of children, as they ran towards the pit's mouth seeking their rela tives, were sufficient to unnerve the stoutest heart, and melt the most stoical spirit. In one face you might see the fearfully anxious look changed into one of gladness as the husband, son, or brother, came up alive. In another face " hope fled," and settled despair when one after another came up, and the expected one still be hind. I visited the pit in a few hours after the catas trophe, and never has it fallen to my lot to witness a more awful lesson. Surely, legislation ought to step in, and en deavour to give security to human life, by the appointment of competent persons—men whose scientific acquire ments would be at least a guarantee that nothing which science could do had been left undone towards the se curity of human life. The air in the pit, after the ex plosion, was so noxious, that it was a considerable time ere any person could venture to seek for the missing men. But such is the devotion, such the spirit and courage of these poor working colliers, that they were to be seen going into the pit without the least hesitation to seek their missing fellow-workmen. The risk which they incurred may be imagined, from many of them having fainted when proceeding towards the workings ; yet others were pushing on and working, undauntedly, hoping to find some one alive and in need of assistance. It is not exactly known how the accident hap pened. It is said the Davy lamp was constantly used to try the , air, but the pit has always been in bad repute on account of its de ficient ventilation. No accident in this part of the country has ever been attended with the loss of so much human life, and the effect' consequently is an unusual gloom over the whole neighbourhood. There were also two or three horses killed, and the damage done to the works is very great. Doubtless more will be made known on the inquest, which will be held on Monday, of which I will send you a full report. The Paris and Rotten Railway Company have de clared a dividend of 23 francs 10 centimes for the nine months ending July. Don CABLos and . the Princess of BEIRA arrived at Greoulx on the 24th ult. The Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS left Limoges for Pampadour on the 30th ult. The Memorial Bordelais of the 31st ult. has the following :- " Among the arrivals here are Count Bressen, the French AmbassadOr to the Court of Spain ; M. Druard, Comptroller of the Household of the Duke d'Aumale; and M. Aguerre Mayor, the American Consul. Considerable disturbances were created in the night of the 29th ult. in front of the residences of the Dutch and Neapolitan Consuls, at Bordeaux, in con sequence, it was pretended, of their not having hoisted their ligs and illuminated their houses in honour of the national fele The rioters, after giving them a most hearty charivari, broke their windows, committed other excesses, and, finally tearing down their escutcheons, threw them into the river." The Semaphore of Marseilles gives the following from Al giers, 25th ult.:-" The news of the death of our agha of the Sendjes was imaiediately s p rea d b y th e c h er if part i san of Abd-el-Kader, who calls himself a descendant of the Prophet, and it appears that the Arabs look on it as an act of Divine justice, so that fresh risings are to be dreaded in the district of Orleansville. While these things are passing in the west, the insurrection appears to be extending in the east. Reinforce ments of troops have just been sent to Dellys. It appears that all Kabylia is in arms, and that the campaign which is expected to commence about the 26th or 27th, will be a rough one." A letter from Tangiers, 9th ult., says :-" The Emperor has just established at Fez a kind of military school, where 500 young men are to study the elements of European tactics. The Moors consent to this measure with a very bed grace, and nu merous desertions take place. The Consuls-General of Spain and Denmark at this place have been promoted by their res pective Governments to the rank of resident Ministers, and it is ,in this quality that the Danish agent of this place, M. Car stenseen, is, it is said, shortly to proceed to the United States. The Vice-Consuls employed under their orders have been named Consuls. The general opinion here is that M. de Nyon, the Consul. General of France at Morocco, will not return to his post." Letters from Beyrout of the 12th July state that hos tilities had ceased in the Lebanon.

Lit GRAND REVIEW IN HYDE PARK.—This morn ing the household troops, consisting of the Ist and 2d Regi- I C merits of Life Guards,- the Royal Horse Guards (Blue), the D. 4th Light Dragoons, the Ist and 3d battalion of the Grenadier g, Gi ards, the Ist and 2d battalion of the Fusilier Guards, and a g, brigade of guns of the Royal Horse Artillery, were reviewed on the usual exercising ground in Hyde Park, by his Majesty the King of the Netherlands, the Duke of Wellington, and a " z number of General Officers. It was not positively known that the review would take place until eight o'clock, at which hour "` an orderly sergeant from each regiment attended at Apsley Fl House to receive the commands of the Duke of Wellington. Shortly after ten o'clock the troops assembled on the ground, and notwithstanding the unfavourable appear. since of the weather thousands of persons were present. At half-past ten o'clock the troops took up the following posi tions The 3d battalion of the Grenadier Guards and the Ist battalion of the Scots Fusilier Guards occupied the centre; the 2d battalion of Scots Fusilier Guards the left, and the let Gt battalion of the Grenadier Guards the right wing, flanked by Du the cavalry, under the immediate command of General Lygon ; on the extreme left was stationed the field battery. At a few minutes before eleven the Duke of Wellington, attended by a Le , n umerous and brilliant staff, arrived ; and, shortly afterwards, Lo: his Maj es ty t h e Ki ng of the Netherlands, dressed in the uniform , 1 of a British Fi e ld-Nl ars h al, accompanied by Prince, George of Lo, Cambridge, L or d Fi tzroy Somerset, Colonel Baron Coehoorn, Count Bylandt, Hon.

Hi s M a j esty was received with the usual military honours, the artillery tiring a royal salute of 21 guns, and the bands of the several regiments playing the national anthem. The illustrious visitor having rode round the line and minutely inspected the appointments of the men, the troops broke into subdivisions and marched past in slow and quick time, after which they were wheeled into line and went through the various evolutions with the utmost precision. The fot mation of squares upon different positions was effected with Ihe greatest rapidity, and the evolutions of the cavalry were executed admirably, and appeared to give universal satisfac tion. His Majesty during the review conversed with several of the general officers, and at tha conclusion addressed the commanding officer. A general salute then followed, and the regiments were marched to Lheir respective barracks. WHITE BAIT DINNER TO THE LORD MAYOR.— A very splendid fish dinner was on Thursday last given to the Lord May or , b y t h e guar di ans o f the City of London Union, at the Crown a n d S ceptre , G reenw i c h, o f w h ic h board his Lord ship, on the introduction of the new poor-law into the City, was chosen chai r m a n. Upwards of seventy sa t d own to dinner. The chairman, in proposing . the health of the chief magistrate, alluded to the length of time his Lordship . had occupied the chair of the board, and the high satisfaction which had been frequently expressed by those best qualified to judge of the talent, zeal, discrimination, and humanity exhibited in the transaction of the important business of th e un i on. These qualities were exercised ever since the formation of the union in 1837, a period during which the difficulties attenda n t upon the management of the powers vested in the guardians by the Poor law Bill were greatly increased by the enormous influx of des titute persons into the City from all p ar t s o f t h e country. The Lord Mayor, in acknowleding the toast, which was received with acclamation, took occasion t o re f er to the elegant tribute he had lately received at the hands of the board, in the shape of a vote of thanks, magnificently emblazoned and framed, and expressed in terms the most kind and graceful. There were 58 guardians present, and the day was spent by the company in a most convivial manner.

AUGUST 4, 1845. The attention of the country has of late been power fully directed to the condition of the lunatic poor. Their claims upon general humanity have been ac knowledged—and in England have the immediate pros pect of being peremptorily enforced. The unpro tected condition of that afflict. d class has long been a disgrace to England, but as outraged nature has at last vindicated her rights, we would not dwell upon the past, but would anticipate for this humane legislative in terference a triumphant career of usefulness. It argues somewhat for the existence of a kindly and affectionate feeling on the part of the Scottish rich towards the poor, to find that during the last twelve months a scheme has been in progress in the very heart of that territory, whose primary object is to afford refuge to the poor under such circumstances of affliction, and which professes also to extend its accom modation on the lowest terms to those of a superior class. We allude to the foundation of the Royal Northern Lunatic Asylum. We are gratified to observe that his Grace the Duke of SUTHERLAND is a large contributor to this patriotic object. It was said by Lord ASHLEY, in the louse, whilst introducing the English Bill now in progress, that in no European country were pauper lunatics in a more degrading position than in Scotland. The north of Scotland must, indeed, confess that she has permitted her lunatic poor, scantily clothed and houseless, to tra verse her glens and mountains, dependant even for the poorest sustenance upon precarious charity, bearing with them,in inseparable companionship,terror and disgust. She must confess that she has adopted no moral or sanatory means towards impeding the course, or abating the vio lence of that fearful calamity in the individual mind, or in the mind of the country. We would not attribute this unseemly dereliction to any mean reluctance to defray the expense of accommodating the pauper lunatic. The north of Scotland is a puor country, but we believe her to be honest and sensible ; and we doubt, therefore, if there be any proprietor within her mountain boundaries who would harbour so unseemly an idea. We are assured there is Snot one who would commit himself to the humiliating avowal. We attribute the un protected position of those unfortunate beings, to the absence of any local asylum in the north, to the consequent difficulty of obtaining accommo dation even in remote establishments, and, in many cases, to the absolute impossibility of obtaining such accommo- dation in any locality, or upon any terms whatever. In this view do we consider this projected Institution as valuable. Can its importance as a patriotic Institution be over-estimated, when it is considered that it will afford an ever-ready and inexpensive refuge to the lunatic poor of the counties of Inverness, Caithness, Ross, Moray, Sutherland, and Nairn ? Within these limits the number of lunatics, in 1818, amounted to up wards of 700, and it is a melancholy statistical position, admitting of no doubt, that lunacy is on the increase. We are aware that this scheme may meet with oppo sition from those who are inclined to maintain the pro priety of legal assessment for all such local objects. It may be, that rather than act counter to their own opinions, such individuals would make forfeits of the considerable sums already collected for this object, and would peril its ultimate attainment in the cherished idea of an agreeable union among the northern counties of a willing adoption by them of a heavy assessment ; or of legislative interference to render such assessment compulsory. We believe that such ideas are Utopian and vain, and we consider it proper to record, for the information of general contributors, that those who act upon them can not benefit in a pecuniary form by the institu tion which they oppose. This asylum most pro- „, I,__-4, pwoprictors or parishes unless contributing to its funds, and the contributor upon whom no legal burden could be laid, but who gives for the gratification of his own generous feelings, has the satisfaction of knowing that his dona tion is not directed to any unbecoming use, but is de voted exclusively to relieving the afflictions of the poor. It is gratifying to know that, on the erection of this asylum, the whole of Scotland will be provided with ample lunatic accommodation of the best character. In the towns of Dumfries, Perth, Aber. deen, Dundee, Montrose, and Edinburgh, there are asylums couducted upon the most approved domestic system, and upon the most liberal public principles. Therefore, should it be necessary, hereafter, for the Legislature to interfere with the subject of lunacy in Scotland, we may hope that such interference will be of a very limited character ; not requiring the bur densome erection of - additional asylums, but alone enforcing any further accommodation that may be re quired as an addition to the asylums at present in ex istence, and thus asserting the right of the public to the over-ruling control of institutions which transact with the liberty of the subject. We would most earnestly direct to this project the attention of all those connected with and interested in the north of Scotland by the ties of birth or attach- went. We observe with the sincerest gratification that her MAJESTY has been pleased to permit the Insti- tution to be called Royal, and we trust that her gracious condescension may induce a more enlarged patronage ,han it might otherwise have received. We refer to the subscription list in our advertising columns, and we sincerely trust that it may yet be materially augmented. Madrid papers to the 28th have been received. The Gazette publishes a dispatch from Saragossa of the 25th. The QUEEN was to have left that city on the 28th for Tudela by the camil of Arragon, on the 29th to arrive at Tafalla, and en the 30th at Pampeluna The dispatch states that she is in the most perfect health. t was expected the Court would proceed from Pampe- lunr, to Tolosa, and frum thence to San Sebastian, where it would arrive about the 6th or 7th of August. El Heraldo has the following in relation to the Ma. faga conspiracy " The conspiracy had ramifications at Rondo, Grenada, and other places, and relied on the co-operation of some unworthy officers of the provincial regiment of Jaen, and on the majo rity of the sergeants of that corps. To srm the national militia, plunder the commercial houses of Malaga, and, with these forces and resources, hasten to Rondo and Grenada, in order to protect there the revolutionary movement, commencing by the assastination of the authorities—such was the plan of the conspirators. They also reckoned on a general rising in , Catalonia and at Valencia. A large house in the High -street was their head. quarters, and the rebellion was about to break out at the mo ment General Caminero, who had long entertained suspicions on the subject, received positive news of it, which is said to be due to a sergeant. The General forthwith marched to the barracks, ordered the troops under arms. fell upon the conspi rators, arrested several of them flagrante delicto, and Malaga has thus been saved from a tremendous catastrophe. Among the prisoners are a Commandant Don Manual de Lara, various officers, a large number of sergeants, a merchant named Hervas, the Advocate Cardero, and Canadillai, Saborio, and other viduals, sell known in the Progressista party. It also states that Madrid was to have been the theatre of a revolutionary movement. The political chief of Ciudad Real having seized a treasonable cor respondence carried on between the Carlists of that pro vince, had thought proper to banish three of the princi pal chiefs of that party. Some changes were contem plated in the military department. General ASPIROZ, the di; ector of the Artillery, was to be replaced by Gen eral LOICORRY, and General SORIA, Inspector of the In fantry, by General ConbovA. . Petitions have been presented to the Commandant- General of Malaga by Moderados and Progressistas in favour of those compromised in the conspiracy discovered there; and the Captain-General of Grenada has been prayed to stay the execution of the sentences until her Majesty's pleasure be known. A large body of troops were assembling at Vittoria in order to prevent a Carlist coup de main on the Royal Family. The Government print, El Heraldo, announces that the ship or war ➢lanzanares, under the command of the Infante Don ENRIQUE, has been ordered from Malaga to the coast of Biscay.

During the past week fair average supplies of Wheat have - been received up to our Market, principally from Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire. Of Foreign and Irish Oats the arrivals were extensive, and nearly the whole of the former were en tered for home consumption, at the prevailing duty. The fresh supplies of Barley, Malt, Beans, Peas, and Flour were scanty. Coastwise, as well as by land carriage and samples, upwards of 2,000 quarters, in addition to the quantity imported up to Saturday evening, came to hand, chiefly from Essex ; notwithstanding the stands were much better supplied than for some time past, and which will be observed, when we intimate that the total arrivals since this day se'nnight have rather exceeded 10,000 quarters—the factors, at the opening of the Market demanded ridiculouslyihigh rates, many of them asking as much as 78s. per quarter for White qualities. This, as might well be imagined, had the effect of causing the buyers to hold off ; hence the sale for the article was by no means so animated as it otherwise might have been. Ilowever, notwithstanding the demand was not to say brisk ; th e holders succeeded in obe taining an advance in the currencies paid on Monday last of Is, and in some instances 2s per quarter, and at which the principal portion of the supply was disposed of. The show of tine foreign Wheat was not large. For, the best parcels of both red and white the inquiry was somewhat active, at a rise of 2s. per quarter, and other qualities sold at Is. per quarter more money. Bonded samples were in active de mand at an improvement in valuet,ffrom 2s. to 3s. per quarter, and at which upwards of 10,000 quarters were disposed oh The accounts received from various parts of the kingdom, respecting the growing crops, were of a very conflicting cha racter, yet we have every reason to believe the wheats have stitaieed but little damage. Grinding Barley Is as in fair r,,ttiet, at full price , , but malting and other parcels hung heavily on hand. The supply of Malt was limited, yet the demand for it was inactive, at late rates. Owing to the large supplies of both Irish and Foreign, the Oat trade was dull, and prices were with difficulty supported. Beans were very dull, and the turn lower. We had a parcel of new Peas on offer. Flour was active, at further improved quotations. New Canary-seed sold at from 48s to 50s per quarter ,and new Rapeseed 281 to 301 per last.

During the past week the imports of live stock from abroad, for our market, have been on an extensive scale, they having amounted to 175 Oxen and Cows, together with 163 Sheep, and 27 Calves, from the Columbine, Batavier, and Giraffe steamers from Rotterdam ; while the Caledonia has arrived from Hamburgh having on board 50 Oxen. We had on offer FO Oxen and Cows, and 12 Calves from the above ports; in which, however, though there were some useful animals amongst them, a decided falling off, was apparent in their general quality. The demand for them was, therefore, inac tive, at somewhat depressed currencies, yet nearly the whole of them found buyers. In consequence of the comparatively high rates ruling here, very few shipments have been lately made to our outports. At Hull only about •90 Bedsts have come to hand since our last. Still we find that two cargoes, comprising 75 Oxen and Cows, have been lately landed and disposed of by public auction at Dundee. The Oxen from Holstein sold at from 11/. to 16/. 55.; these from Jutland, 10/. to 13/. each. The purchases were wholly made by the graziers. The foregoing arivals, added to those previously reported, form the following totals of Beasts and sheep for the present year :—Beasts, 6,496 head ; Sheep, 1,843 head. Fresh up the arrivals of Beasts from our own grazing dis tricts were somewhat on the increase ; while a further slight improvement was noticed in their quality, especially in that of those from the western and midland counties. Al though the attendance of both town and country buyers was rather numerous, the Beef trade was in a sluggish state, at a decline in the quotations obtained on Monday last of 2d per Blbs, the highest figure for the best sorts not exceeding 4s 4d per Blbs, and at which a clearance was with difficulty effected. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridge shire, we received about 700 Scots, Home-breds, and Short Horns ; from the northern districts, i nc l u di ng 80 by railway from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, 200 Short Horns, &c. ; from the western and midland counties, 600 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c. ; from other parts of Ehgland, 500 of various breeds ; and from Scotland, 380 horned and polled Scots, the remainder of the supply being derived from around the metropolis. For the time of year, the numbers of Sheep were very limited, and their condition was by no means good, notwithstanding the plentiful supplies of fodder on the whole of our large stock farn;s. The primest Old Downs were in steady re quest, at full rates of currency, but all other kinds were a slow inquiry, at barely stationary prices. There were very fine store animals on offer, and for which high rates wer e again demanded. The supply of Lambs was small, owing to which, the Lamb trade was active, at full quotations. The tbreign Calves found ready buyers, at from 4s to 4s 6d per 81bs. Generally speaking, the Veal trade was steady, at last week's figures. In Pigs—the supply of which was small—only a limited business was doing at late rates.

Still, however, the general demand has ruled active, and, in some instances, the quotations have had an upward tendency, particularly those of Beef, and at which good clearances have been effected.

I do not think even the losers at Goodwood last week complain of their losses, so superabundant and wept' fkent was the sport. If any meeting in the world de' serves to be designated as courtly it is the one upon which I am now commenting, seeing it is held in the park of a Duke, has for its stewards two Cabinet nisters, and is, moreover, honoured with the presence of a powerful Monarch, who travelled a distance of eight/ miles merely for the pleasure of witnessing the sport it afforded. • Year after year, owing to.the indefatigable industrY, of Lord George B en ti nc k, are i mprovements prq j e cte?, and carried out. Before the next meeting takes place trust he will cause a large reduction to be made in 0 3 e provision tariff: Sixpence for a biscuit in these days I s rather too much for John Bull to pay, even on a plea" sure excursion. And now for a resume of the sport. The meeting opened with the Craven, the distance for which being just suited to Discord, he won it, Wil l little trouble, from his three opponents. For the ham Stakes Wilderness much disappointed her friends, who backed her at evens against the fields' Mr. Forth's party nibbled a good stake by backing Lady Cecilia, who won only by a head, and that more Be, l's than her own. The 300 Soya. Stake for four-year olds, though COw tested for by cripples, was productive of a better re ° than usual, and was another turn fur the fielders. The position of the Devil and Best Bower was exactly ale leverse oi that which they occupied in the bettipg. In the doll. Stakes Captain Percy Williams, wit° Lord Howth's colt, defected Queen MaO, which at once sent Boarding-school bliss to her proper position in lye inarkei, for the Goodwood Stakes, and lowered the bop' of the Queen's friends for the same race. I never kne ,! 1 so small a field for the Drawing-room as presents ° itself' to-day, occasioned, I suppose, by the announceme° l that Old England would go for it. Had the manner which the race was run been known before, many °there' I think, would have been started. Thanks to Nat's fin' riding, the race was rendered far more interesting LW; was anticipated, and Old England won with so muck difficulty that he receded in the betting for the St. Leger' and was friendless at 12 to 1. The result of the Gratwicke was likewise attributabl e to the same head and hand which made the previous race so exciting. The Monarch's defeat, looking °C Hersdy's previous doings, was indeed a matter of aster nishment, and was caused, I am of opinion by the slow pace at which the race was run. Many are of opinion, had Cowl not broken down, he must have had the honour now acquired by Hersey. It is singular the Derby Will,' nor should he beaten so o ft en on thi s course . Attilayl!, 1843, was going to do wonders, and was as great a favour rite as Mr. Gratwicke's horse, still he succumbed t° Envoy. The - Lavant showed that Sting's running at Ascot was perfectly correct. Cherokee found the p . c!, too good for her, and Camb au l es ma d e suc h a no i se WI it must have reached the ring, as they never mentione d .. him except with a desire to bet against him. Lord George Bentinck won the Innkeepers' Plate with, his Little Farthing Candle, and finished the sport for tbe. day. TELEGRAM ; CRICKET. .. .. • KENT V. SUSSEX.
