Already, this week, the advance has been considerable in nearly all railway shares, so that a check upon realisations would not be surprising. At present, however, there is no sign of such a reaction. In the meantime the de cline in corn, which will t a k e p l ace on M on d ay , no t only in London, but all over the Continent, together with the extraordinary plethora in the Money Market, Which as yet shows no sign of diminution, will direct attention to the prospect of a rise in the Funds.

Mr. Benson said it was almost incredible that any person should commit such a cowardly assault as the prisoner had done to satisfy a bit of spite. The prisoner was a brutal fellow, and it was no wonder he was ashamed to appear to the summons. The moment the sentence was pronounced Mary Ann Martin, the prisoner's mother, who had fre quently interrupted the prcceedings, struck the complainant a violent blow on the mouth, and said, " Take that you wretch." Mr. Benson ordered her into custody at once, and the crse being clearly proved, the woman said she was very sorry for what she had done. Mr. Benson said he would not accept the apology. The prisoner was as cowardly as her son, and bad committed a gross contempt of court which he could not overlook. He saw the outrage. The prisoner struck the young man Cribb with her fist, and made his mouth bleed. He sentenced her to ten days' im prisonment. SPORTING PROPHECIES. BRIGHTON AND LEWES MEETINGS. " THE ERA."

FYFIELD.—There is nothing going en in the way of training, our horses being restricted to healthy exercise in the shapo of a few gentle canters. The following horses are well, and can soon be made fit to run : Picnic, Mar shal Ney, Emigration, Safety, Whalebone, lona filly, Lockeridge, Sister Franchise. Intimidation colt, La Belle Jt3allT', Ellen Horne colt, and Portsmouth. EPSOM.-1190VCS has been sending Lord Darby, Lord Ronald, Juaniti, Venetia, and Nanny Thormanby some useful gallops. The last-named is much benefited by her rest since Stockbridge. Sherwood sends Marquis of Wor cester, Vanbrugh, Buffoon, Brown Jug, and Sea Serpent two good spins of a mile each. LEWES.—In the Brighton Stakes we have Lictor and Choral engaged. The last-named returned from Good wood yesterday (Thursday), looking none the worse for her rec', and I think she is the bast at the weights ; but as she is in the Lewes Handicap, she may not run. Lictor is looking and going very well, but I think has too much weight to win. Corporation Stakes.—Young Fenton is a very nice colt and a good mover, and I think will run well. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET. " LEFT AT THE CLOAK P.oom.”—John Allen M'Leod, a young man of gentlemanly appearance, speaking with a strong foreign accent, a circum stance he explained by saying that, though an Englishman, he had lived so many years in Italy that he had almost forgotten his native tongue, was charged with stealing a gold watch, the property of Miss Ede, of the Homer coffee-house, Agar street, Strand. He described himself as a cle►k, and said lie lived at Calais. On Thurs day night the prisoner went to the coffee-house and ordered a bed, saying he should like to have the same room he had used on a former occasion. He was accommodated as he desired. After he lef t the next morning the watch and a hat-box were missed from an adjoining room. A suspicion.having arisen in Miss Ede's mind that the property might have been left at the Cloak-room of one of the railway-stations, she sent to the several ter mini to make inquiries. At the Cloak-room of the Charing-cross Station she found a hat box, which at the first glance she imagined to be the same that had been missed from her room, which ultimately turned out to be the case. She communicated with the police, and a watch was kept. Ultimately the prisoner called for the hatbox, and was at once confronted by Miss Ede, who asked him why he had not returned to the " Homer"? He appeared much confused, and gave no distinct answer. She then said to him, " I want my watch—you must have taken it, and no one else." The prisoner said, " Move a little fur ther away, we don't want him to hear us," re ferring to Sergeant Monckton, the detective officer on special duty at the station, who was standing by watching the conversation. He then said to her in a low tone of voice, " If I give you back your watch, you wont' give me in charge?" Monckton saw him fumbling at his waistcoat-pocket, and half withdrawing something which looked like the bow of a watch. He a3ke I the prisoner if he had the watch, and, receiving no distinct answer, took him in custody. The watch was found on him, and identified by Miss Ede. He begged to be let go, saying that if he was locked up it would ruin him. He was going away by train, and his mother would be waiting for him at the station. Upon him were found a number of pawn brokers' duplicates for articles pledged in London, a " billet" (or duplicate) for a light blue overcoat, pledged for 20 francs at the Mont de Piete, at Calais, and a number of cloak-room tickets for courier bags, portmanteaus, umbrellas, Bre., left at the cloak-rooms of the several railway stations, to be called for. lie was remanded for further inquiries, as it was imagined that publicity being giveu to the proceed ings at this stage the owners of some of the pro perty might come forward. MARLBORO UGFI-STRE ET. A RUFFIAN PROPEP,LY PUNISIIED.—Thornas G. Kay, a collector, of 28, Coleman-street, City, was charged before Mr. Kuox with violently assaulting Eliza, Pardoc, a married woman, living at 22, Peter-street, S:. James's. The complainant, whose head was bandaged, and who appeared to have been much Mused, said that about seven o'clock yesterday, when going ho me from the military stores where she was employed as a tailoress, she stopped at the door of a house in Whitcomb-street to speak to a friend, when she saw the prisoner, who was very drunk, coming along the street. Directly afterwards she saw the prisoner run after a doctor's boy who had a basket on his arm and attempt to kick him in a brutal manner. She went to the boy's protection and drew him into a passage, when the prisoner came up, and after using most offensive expressions towards both her and the boy he attacked her in a violent manner, blackening one of her eyes, shattering her teeth, and bruising her all over. la answer to Mr Knox, the complainant said that she gave the prisoner no provocation whatever. All she did was to protect the boy from being kicked. Wm. Cameron, of No. 9, Dorset-place, Pall mall, said that he saw the prisoner, who was drunk, first hit the boy with the basket, and then because the complainant pulled the boy into the passage the prisoner attacked her, there not being the least pro vocation for his doing so. Police -constable Ward, 107 A, proved that the prisoner was drunk. The prisoner said that he had taken some whisky with some friends, and remembered nothing more than that some boys vexed him. He went after one of them, and on a female protecting the boy he struck her twice, as nearly as he could recollect, and a man came up and gave him a good hiding, and then he wai taken into custody. Mr. Knox said it was not for him sitting in the chair he did to commend a person who had used actual violence, but he considered the prisoner de served any amount of thrashing any of the bystanders thought proper to give him. He should commit the prisoner for two months with hard labour. Mr. Knox refused the prisoner's employers' appli cation to alter the decision to a fine. WESTMINSTER. INVEIGLING CHILDREN TO UTTER COUNTERFEIT COIN.—A respectably dressed woman, giving the name of Susan Littledale, was placed at the bar charged with unlawfully causing a child, only 10 years of age, to put off counterfeit coin. Augusta Barrett, the child in question, said that she was on the Marlborough-road, Chelsea, last evening, when the prisoner, who is a perfect stranger to her, came up and asked her if she would go into a shop and buy her a pennyworth of thread, and at the same time gave a two-shilling piece. She went into a haberdasher's for the thread, but there they could not give her change, and told her she must get it elsewhere. She went to two or three places, and at last to Mr. Dails, pork butcher, 67, Marl borough-road, where it was discovered that the two shilling piece was bad. Mr. Dails said that having detected the spurious coin he asked where the child got it from, and being informed followed her until she joined the prisoner in the street. She pointed hor out as the person who gave her the money, and prisonev denied it. Inspector M'Hugo, of the B division, said that the police had been unable to make any inquiries respecting the accused, as she had refused at the station to give her address. Prisoner was remanded till Monday. THAMES. A COWARDLY SON AND A COWARDLY MOTHER.---. James Martin, aged 21, was brought up on a war rant charged with violently assaulting Thomas Milton. Both men are fishmongers. Ihe com plainant is living at No. 88, and the defendant at No. 129, High-street, Shadwell. There had been some bad feeling and a quarrel between them owing to rivalry in trade. A fortnight ago, and about midnight, the complainant, overcome by fatigue and the heat of the weather, seated himself in a chair at his door and fell asleep. While in this helpless con dition the prisoner came by and cowardly struck Milton a violent blow on his back, which knocked him off his chair. Before the helpless man could recover from the surprise of this brutal and das tardly attack, the prisoner jumped upon him and again struck him several times. The prisoner left his foe prostrate on th:; ground and ran away. A summons was issued, to which the complainant did not appear, and then a warrant was granted, on which he was arrested. Several respectable wit nesses, who saw the assault committed, gave evi dence, and the complainant said a finger was jammed, and that he had been in fearful pain about the back and loins since he was assaulted. The prisoner's father made an attempt to save his son by a good deal of hearsay evidence, which Mr. Benson said he did not believe, and he then said his son and the complainant had a fair stand-up fight. His son was subject to fits. Police-sergeant Gamble, of the K division, said that the prisoner was a savage fellow, who had been 2 RAINING REPORTS. KINGSCLERE —On Tuesday the following were on Carmen Heath downs, under the care of Clarke : —Vabala thus, Blue Gown, Green Sleeve, Pero Gomez, and King Cophetua.

Of th e remainder of J enn i ng s's, Auguste, Long champs, Ouragan, and Mortemer have b een doin g some useful work. Ab out th i rty o f Joseph Dawson's I saw yesterday trottin g a l ong on th e private ground. Chelten ham leads Typhoeus two or throe cantors daily on the tan, and Marquis of Carabas sometimes follows them. King Alfred and Restitution are doing some steady canters, as is also Ishmael, a goodlooking colt. Lucifer I saw go a couple of canters, but I believe he will not run till the Canterbury meeting. STOCKBRIDGE.;WO have scarcely anything doing in the shape of training, as a good many of our nags are at Goodwood. The following are out every day :—The Earl, Birdseeker, Equerry, Blucher, Red Rice, Rowallan, Espar tero, Amethyst colt, Arbaces, Minnie Warren, Crucifixion filly, Miss Foote, Bonnie Lass, Iberia, Beata, Lady Dupplin, and Lady Elizabeth, from Danebury, but they are doing only some walking exercise. Toni Day is doing the most work with the Blackbird colt, Becky Sharp filly, Hipp o _ damia, and Lava filly. Tho first-named two are being prepared for Brighton'and Lewes. At Brighton, in the Champagne Stakes, we have Athena, and she will win. For the Corporation Stakes Cicada and Burford have no chance at all. _ _ _ Wednesday.—Fobert galloped Mirage, Liberal, and Lady Henrietta two miles. Fitzwilliam Glen Almond, Woodman, and Myosotis went a good gallop of mile and a half. The ;rest did mile-and-a-half work. Masterman sent Honesty and Catterick a good mile and a half.

Virginia Creeper and Actma are doing very Mirage good h croal o oig l eiL p g a: a onc l : l e o . well for their engagements at Brighton next week. Both will be found worth looking after. Stevens has a good team doing nice work for meetings next week; but as I have not seen a complete programme I cannot say much of their chances. M.A. is in work, and will be found very much improved when he next appears in pa blic. Mathilde is a useful filly, and will win good races shortly. The others doing work are—Cara, Careful, PreCocious, Wood man, Aldershot, Staff, Maid of the Mill, Maesgwatha, Kicksy \Vicksy, Chateau Margaux. Vigilant, Osprdy, Secondhand, Tiger Tim, Lifeboat fi:ly, and the Prima Minister colt. FINDON.—Next week we have Brighton. and Lewes Meetings, but as I have not yet seen a programme of them, my notes to-day must necessarily be brief. For the Brighton Stakes on Tuesday I S3O that the Vixen gelding is entered. All I can say is, that he has been leading Romping Girl in her work, and has been going pretty well. Corporation Stakes.—Memento and the filly by The Ranger out of Indigestion's dam are both away at Goodwood. I should like to know how they acquit themselves before venturing an opinion, but I fool sure they are both very useful fillies and will pay their way. STANTON.—At Brighton next week the Returned, Fidelia, and Christmas Carol are entered for the Brighton Stakes. 1 cannot at present say what will run.

The annual contest for Doggett's Coat and Badge took place this day, from the Swan, at London Bridge, to tho Swan, at Chelsea, a course of very nearly five miles. The following were the competitors :—'l;hontas Day, Wapping ; Charles B. Messeng-ar, Rotherhithe ; Henry Hero Stringer, Rotherhithe ; Thos. W. Hawkins, jun., Limehouse ; Alfred Egalton, Blackwall ; George Black, Horsleydown. There were varioue other prizes besides the bequest of Mr. Thomas Doggett of facetious memory, amounting to £4 17s. 9d. for the seconi youth ; £2 18s. 9(1. for the third ; a guinea and a half for tho fourth ; and a guinea each for the other two provided they rowed the entire course. It is almost unnecessary to say that this is one of the most attractive wagers upon the Thames, and one upon NN hich a great deal of money is generally laid out. Egalton was the "jolly young Waterman" most in re quest on this occasion, and next in demand to him was Hawkins Egalton of Blackwall was ma le a great favourite at starting, 6 to 4 being laid ; Mr. Frederick Dards, the bargomaster of Fishmonger's Company, was manager for the first time, and theylstarted at a quarter past one by pistol shot from the manager, who was rowed by eight old Doggett's men, the stroke oar being taken by George Henning; of Bankside. The race needs but little description—Egalton came away imme diately after the start, was clear in 100 yards, and won with great ease ; Messenger was second, Hawkins third, and Day fourth.

THE NEXT REGISTRATION.—To-day (Saturday) tho lists of voters for the next registration, as ascertained, will be exhibited on the doors of churches and chapels. All claims and objections must be made on or before the 25th inst. CRICKET.—ETON AGAINST HARROW.—We have one school-match left, and volumes might be written upon it, even shorn as it is of older glory. Why twelve thou sand people come at all ; why, when they do come, they all shout ; why, if a ball is within a yard of the wicket, everybody bawls " bowled ;" and why the batter, who hits round in empty space and nearly knocks his stumps and the hostile wicket-keeper over in one fell blow, is always declared, by an elliptical form of expression, to have "played"—these and many other matters, such as why people who never were at any school at all wear the supposed winning colour, are too wonderful to be found out. Not so difficult is it to see why Harrow boats Eton. They have no river, it is said sometimes; but that is, as all who know what a school eleven is, beside the question. There are quite as many good fish out of the river as in it. The real reason is shown as soon as the first ball is bowled ; when the Eton boy, whether he be at the wicket with his bat, or out in the field with no thing but his good right and left hands to take care of him, stares startled at the bounce and hop. A dead flat—dead in more senses than one—does not prepare the young idea for Lord's, as does the side-long hill, lively enough itself, at Harrow. In the palmy days when Eton had fine elevens she was much better than Harrow, and won accordingly. But when pretty evenly matched, it seems that Harrow wins here ; and as the ground has certainly not been better since 1850 than it was before, the seote against Eton has told its tale. Many say it is always six to four against Eton at Lord's; and I really believe it is.—St. Paul's for August. THE ORCHESTRAL UNION.—Our readers will doubtless remember the many interesting musical enter tainments organised by the Orchestral Union, under the maryttgement of the late Mr. Alfred Mellon. They will '.vd are assured, be also gratified to hear that the associa tion of which the operations have been suspended for several years, is now being revived under the direction of Mr. F. Kingsbury, who conducted with such brilliant success the concerts held in 1867 at the Fairy Palace at the Agricultural Hall, and under whose able sup3riuteadonce the late M. works were so successfully reproduced. The orchestra will include some of the most ta'ente I solo instrumental ists from the [loyal Italian Oinra, Covent Garden, Her Majesty's Theatre, and the Philharmonic Societies. The first series of concerts, under the new direction, with Messrs. Carodus, Viotti Collins, G. Collins, J. Howell, Barrett, Radcliff, Maycock, Hutchins, C. Harper, Hughes, &c., as principals, and Mdlle. L iebhart vocalist, will com mence at Brighton, at the New Grand Concert Hall, West-street, on the 17th of August, and at the termina tion of its engagement there the members of the associa tion intend making a tour of the provinces. The Queen has been graciously pleased to appoint Thomas George Knox, Esq., now her Majesty's Consul at Baufkok, to be her Majosty's Consul-General in Siam, to reWe. at Bangkok. muluirnimi m a BQ% e ••• - rSIC• 1 100 ICO 100 10i 100 V 1.13.4 10v 100 100 all 100 100 100 all 100 ICBI 131 f
