The canal debts cover $11,147,600, and the General Fund debt $5,000,000 more. The present constitution has provided for the extinction of these two items by setting apart from the canal revenues $2,050,000, which will liquidate in 1868 the canal debt of 1816, and the General Fund debt in about four years afterwards. The new canal debt in 1850 will be extin guished in 1868 by sinking fund, and at the same time the debt of 1859 and the bounty State will also be paid by direct taxation. Thus, under the present regulations, the whole State debt should bo extinguished by the year 1879, leaving us only our share of the national debt and the county debt.—Albany Argus, April 27.

Wednesday is the Derby Day, and as the time for the decision of that world-renowned race approaches, even serious business individuals, who rarely trouble them selves respecting the competition of racehorses, begin to make inquiries about the odds, and for once in a way show sporting proclivities. At present, owing to the favour in which Lady Elizabeth is held, the field does not promise to be of its usual strong dimensions; but the interest in 'he contest, when the competitors are marshalled in the "dell of fate," will bo the same as in past years. superfluous, as Lady Elizabeth and Formosa are vastly superior to any of those likely to oppose them. The last time Lady Elizabeth and Formosa met, in the Middle Park Plato, Formosa beat the Danebury filly in their plac3s, after a close race. Between the pair it again be a fine contest ; but as the straight, when Easby gave way, and Pirate Chief took the lead, maintaining it to the distance, where he was chal lenged by Distaff, whom the Chief beat very cleverly by a neck; a bad third ; Mars was Null, Clarina fifth, and Ada last. An objection was lodged by Britton, the rider of Duchess, against the first and second, on the ground that they had closed upon him and prevented Lim getting through, but it was overruled.

There are 19 entries for the Great Surrey Foal Stakes (1 mile), but Vale Royal and Uncas will have the race between them, and as Mr Lincoln's colt will have run in the Derby, Vale Royal is entitled to the preference. Eighty horses have been nominated for the Epsom Two Year Old Plato (6 furlongs), the most noteworthy of which are Electricity, Sister to Her mit, Paimitine, Queen Esther, Hark-over, Lo Saphir, Trorapette, Sofilaka, Director, the colt by Tint \Vbifllor, out of Hermione, the filly by Oulston ()It of arucitixiou, and Jove. Electricity is entitled to an allowance of Gib, and as Badsworth is penalised 71b, Mr. Morgan's filly may find her most dangerous opponent in the liermione colt. SPORTING IN TELLIGENCE. lIAEPENDEN MEETING-FRIDAY. The gathering held on Harpenden Common was in point of attendance quite successful, although the eletn2nts in the latter portion of the day tended to ma - the enjoyment of both holiday seekers and professional turlites, for rain fell hem , ily during the afternoon. A long sh'ng of car riages lined both sides of the course for a considerable dis tance beyond the Grand Stand, occupied by a very in fluential company, which, coupled with pedestrians , brought the visitors up to nearly last year's numbers. The card contained eight items for decision, and three of them were remarkable for the further succeos of the Buccaneer .stock, in Pirate Chief and Perfume, the former scoring a double victory in the Handicap Plate and Wheathamstead Handicap. The opening event, the Trial Stakes, was won by Hatnmeiton, who upset a couple of better favourites than himself; and Pirate Chief ran away VasPy from his opponents in the Handicap Plate, pu'ling off the good thing he has long b3en expected to do. Ho was almost the worst favourite of the fifteen runners,_ to all of whom ho was conceding weight, and consequently it was not surprising that odds was laid on him for the subsequent event, which he won. The penalised Perfume carried off the Two-year-old Stakes, and backers landed a groat pot in Black Boy in the Scurry Handicap. Lucifer, the tip weight, won the Harpenden Handicap, after a good race with last year's winner, Midwife, and the result confirms the running of Lord St. Vincent's horse at Newmarket. Claymore was successful in the Ilothamstead Stakes, and in the last race, the Blenor Stakes, the speedy but v:ci ous Valentia was not backed by her owner for a Wi ling, who was afraid to trust her, and glad to get rid of her after the race. The Trial Stakes of 5 sous each, with 50 added. One mile. Mr. W. G. Bennett's liarnmerton, by Oolsterdale— Greylock, 3 yrs (£100), Gst 101 b (car.

Lady El:z4beth, although strong efforts have been made by the layers to drive her back in the quotations, main tains her position with remarkablo firmness, and, like Patron, she may be backed agaiest the tleld before the flag falls. Her performances as a two-year. old are well k town, and need nut be recapitulated here. Oily once, in the Middle Park Plate, (lid Lady Elizabet't suffer defeat in 1867. During the interregmurn she is reported to have trained on, and grown into a magnificent fitly, whilst her temper, even her enemies adrift, has improved. Fit on the day, where is the colt, now that Rost cruciau is reported to have lost his old form, to be found cep tble of giving Lady Elizabeth slb ? The Earl, in case of Lady Elizabeth going amiss at the eleventh hour, would be a useful " second string " for Danebuty. Sir Joseph Hawley's trio—Blue Gown, Rosicrucian, and Green Sleeve--have all in tem boon backed, and, nota:th standing the decline of Rosicrucian to 25 to 1, odds of 5 to 2 are accepted about the lot. The market at present points to Blue Gown as the probable champion, but we do not think he wi'l stay the course, and would rather trust to Green Sleeve, who will be a good favourite before the Derby day arrives. The trial horse of Sir Joseph Ilaw ley's team is said to have been Moslem, who is quite capa ble of testing the metals of a Derby candidate ;,but with the down fa". of Rosicrucian a'l hopes of the " Wee i:bbort going to Kingsclere have, in ou‘. opinion, vanished. O,:on, on the strenuth of having beaten Paul Jones in a trial a few weeks ago, has been heavi'y supported, to NN la and also for a place. Beyond a mile Ot:ort has not yet shown hie ability to travel, and, as wo believe him to be a non-stayer, and an trecortein horse, like his sire, to boot, we discard the son of Crammed, as his best public , form has never been within 111 b of the form requ' •od to win a Derby. Paul Jones is a mere handicap horse, and though good judges aro reported to be "going for" the son of Buccaneer, nothing would surprise us more than to see Mr. Hodginau's colt secure the greatest prize of the year. Speculum is a good, honest horse, far su perior to Ot:on and Paul Jones, and is almost certain to be one of the first three. s.`tio Dike of Newcastle's other representative, Pace, may be formidable i n the Doncaster St. Leger, but he has not speed enough for the Derby, and his action is quite unsuited to the hi'l and dale at Epsom. The colt by Tom Bowline, a:ter hav ing been tried a good horse, has been lame, and cense quently declined to 100 to 1. At Bath he was partially resuscitated, but we fear Lord Glasgow's colones Pt not be to the fore in this year's Derby, Suffolk, 'on his Lest form, has an outside chance.- nothing more—but, as he belongs to the uncertain school, we discard Baron Rothschild's colt, for he is not shaped to act wetl over the Epsom course. St. Ronan, though a game horse, is a "piper;" and Rabican, who is said to be a certain starter, has been lame too recently for 113 to seri ously entertain his chance. Mercury and Uncas, mea sured by their Yolk performances last year, are ono and the same hoi so ; but neither animel has the least Derby pretensions, though in the socond-class races they will hold their own. Forest King, who is trained privately in his owner's park, may run creditably, and, as he once beat Orion, there is no "just cause or impediment" why he should not do so again. Viscount we have put down as a runner, but memories of Whitewall will not be revived by the victory of this son of Tho Marquis and Columbine. Amongst the doubtful starters there is no dangerous name save that of The Ein From the above remarks it will be gathered that we have strong faith in LADY ELIZABETH, and for the Queen of Danbury WO anticipate a clever v:c • tory. Langthy entries have been sJcured to the Bautinck and Epsom Tows Plates; but as the horses nominated for these races have prior engagements, we do not feel jus tified in making selections at this mom mt. There are eight races Thursday's list. Iu the Two Year Old Stakes (four ferbngs) forty-one horses have been nominated, several of which will have performed iu the Woodeote on Tuesday. The best nain-s, however, iu Thursday's race aro Sea Breeze, Director, Glenlyou, lington, Sister to Hermit, Little Lord, Queen Esther, Sis tea to Roeicrucian, Lady Margaret, Diamond, Lo Sapto-, Trompette, and Lure. The distance (foer furlongs) is scarcely far enough for the Ifer.nione ejif, and therefore to the elected of Mr. Naylor's pair —Glen'you or Welling ton—we award the raei. Only four h.,rs s have b, an entered fur the Epsom Four Year Old Stakes :ales), and Fervacqws will wiu, if he is not permitted to walk over. The Epsom Grand Stand Cup (li mites) has 3; subser;ptions; but as the ace:Valces are nut due till Monday evening, we can only point out Tormentor and Priority as being favourably wol3litAl.

HOTEL ROBBERIES AT RACE MEETINGS.—No little Con sternation was created at Bath on Wednesday morning by the discovery of several bedroom robberies at the York House, the Royal, and other hotels. One gentleman at the Royal, who neglected to fasten his bedroom door, lost money and jewellery to the amount of .ClO6. At the fork House another gentleman (Mr. Cole) was robbed of £l7, and the thief, or thieves, likewise visited the sleeping apartments of Sir Thomas Monorieffe and Mr. Devill, evid .ntly with the same intention ; but the latter g.-ntlenian being "wide awake" when his door was tried, invited his visitor to "come 'in ;" but instead of complying with Mr. 11.'s polite request, he "sloped." Sir Thomas Moncrieffe occupied Lord Stainfm d's usual bed room, at the back of their sitting-roow, the door out of which he omitted to fasten, and in the morning discovered his dressing bag (which was on the chest of drawers wh n he retired to rest) ripped opec, and in a disordered state, on the sofa in the sittingroom. The previous ieek, at Winchester, Mr. S. Houghton wa s robbed of £5O .v notes, under similar circumstances — it is su pp osed by a foreigner ; and there is little doubt that the Bath robberies were com mitted by the same experienced chevalier d'industrie, as on each occasion the suspected stranger in question took his departure by au early train. sro:aTlNa INTEL LIGENCE—This Day.
