If Mr. GLADSTONE gains his election no one can say that he has not worked for it, and if, on the other hand, he should lose his seat, all must ad mit that the failure has resulted from no want of exertion. Indeed, so active and so energetic has the right hon. gentleman's canvass been, that it affords ground for invidious persons to declare that he is not so sure of the result of the contest as he appears to be. At any rate the wizard is at his work again in right earnest this week, and last evening appeared at a meeting at Leigh. It was most numerously attended, and Mr. GLADSTONE spoke for an hour in rather a more lively strain than usual, and seemed to give great satisfac tion to his auditory. To begin with, he devoted a little consideration to a question of great interest and importance just now, that of capital in connec tion with labour. It must be confessed that the right hon. gentleman hardly recognises the mag nitude of this subject, and indeed he has always been slow to acknowledge the errors that have super vened upon the establishment of Trades' Unions. It is no service to render to the working classes to neglect to point out their faults and mistakes, and the truer the friend the more readily will he in timate what is amiss in the proceedings of the classes - who co-operate against their employers. " There are those," said Mr. GLADSTONE, " who consider that this is among the great difficulties, if it be not the greatest difficulty, that clouds the future of the country." But he is not of that opinion, believing that the good sense of his countrymen will eventually triumph over the obstacles and prevent the danger from assuming the form some dread. In order to realise ,his desirable end, it will be necessary above a that the contending parties must exercise forbear ance, that the employers should show moderation in their demands, and the employed exhibit more willingness to comply with reasonable requests instead of following the too prevailing practice of making mountains of molehills. Mr. GLADSTONE feels great doubts as to the success of Joint-Stock Companies, and cannot put that faith in them which some do so implicitly; but he is in favour of those measures which give the labouring man some of the interests of the capitalist without removing him from his own class. Another mode has been tried in some places which has been highly approved of by the most intelligent in the district, which is that private individuals contrive so to adjust their opera. tions that they can give to workpeople an interest in the proceeds. The right hon. gentleman very truly said that this was very likely to solve the difficulty where it could be put in practice, an I to reconcile some of the differences between labour and capital . ['he method of establishing boards of arbitration is another effort to abolish the unhappy consequences of the divisions between master and men; an.l of these it may be said that they have risen to such a height and produced such mischievous consequences that any change will be for the better in that respect. At any rate, Mr. GLADSTONE is safe in affirming that this difficulty of capital and labour will be seriously aggravated by " narrow views and angry passions ;" and that it is a matter which requires the " closest and most careful attention ,hat can be given to it by the most competent per sons." Passing on to other topics the right hon. gentle man referred to the overwhebnin,g pressure of cor respondence which pressed in on him from all quar ters; and precluded all possibility of minute atten tion being given to it in the way of answers ; but the reason he, however, gives for the apparent ne glect is, that he has weighty subjects of interest to attend to. Looking at the election movement, so far as it has gone in Lancashire, Mr. GLADSTONE thinks that the greatest good humour has prevaile I, which is certainly a fortunate thing, more especially if we can rely upon its continuance when the tug of war be gins in reality. Considerable amusement was cre ated by his quoting some verses of a Conservative working-man, in which the reason is certainly bet ter than the rhyme. The purport is that the Op paqtion leader should not be so severe in his cen sures on the expenditure of the country when he himself is partly responsible for it. Mr. GLAD STONE denies that he hal a large majority, which is desperate way of trying to gain his point, because as the numerical advantage was to the left of the Speaker it shows that he did not possess the confi - dence of the Liberal party so much as he ought to have done from his position. It appears, ac cording to the revelations of the speech of yesterday that the House of Commons and the public had a narrow escape of another Parlia mentary coup d'etat, for Mr. GLADSTONE and his friends discussed the advisability of asking the vote of the House of Commons on the question of the public expenditure, and they only refrained from motives of expediency about Reform, and so on. Still the lookers-on must judge by acts and not by intentions. The fact still remains that there was no decided disapproval manifested by the Opposi tion on the subject which now fills them with in dignation, and with which they are trying to fight the electors in all directions. So much time did this exciting topic take up, that there was only a brief interval allowed to the Irish Church, and Mr. GLADSTONE had to content himself with some observations on the injustice with which the Irish had been treated, and the folly of saying that they could not be mollified if that in justice were done away with. Ile considers such sentiments unworthy of the glorious past to which the Conservatives are so fond of referring, and unscrutable glorious future which awaits the ex ponents of the Liberal policy, a complimentary and ingenious way of disposing of his opponents, and settling matters for himself and his friends. The Provisional Government at Madrid published its manifesto yesterday, and it is couched in a com prehensive strain. It calls upon the people to con form to its policy, and explains the reasons which induced the Spaniards to throw off the yoke of the BOURBONS, and it puts forth the principle of national sovereignty, which, if exercised by the vote of all, and afterwards by the decision of those elected by the people, will complete the work on hand and consolidate those liberties which it is the earnest desire of all patriots to secure, and should be the aim of a civilised country to uphold. The greatest unanimity seems to prevail among those in authority at Madrid just now, an 1 their proceedings are as far removed from tho ordinary strife and contention of a revolution as can well be imagined. The Manifesto declares that the Provisional Government has a right to expect from foreign countries a respect for the state of things which has been created, and they express a hope that those Governments which are at the head of civilization will not refuse to them that friendship which they accorded to the Power which crushed them. Hopes are expressect that there will be free exercise given to every form of priblic wo rship, and that religion will be freed 'rom the fetters hitherto imposed upon it. On the whole this manifesto breathes a spirit of in- :TFIE SUN, LONDO dependehee that cannot but be approved of by all lovers of progress, and if occasionally some extremes are touched upon they are not more than must be expected under the circumstances of the case, and there is no reason to doubt that eventually Spain will take her right place among the nations of Europe, having left far behind her the prejudices and follies that have so long impeded her course and marred her prosperity. The intelligence from Calcutta to the 28th of September is, on the whole, encouraging, though in parts of Central India there had been serious uneasiness on account of apprehended scarcity. Famine is, unhappily, no new or strange visitor in India, and the experience of Orissa has shown the natives that all the appliances of modern civi lisation may fail in preserving them from its con sequenc3s. Thus at the first rumour of a possible scarcity of supplies a panic would be created, which in some of the more remote districts might lead to disturbances. Grain riots are said to have actually occurred in some parts of Cen tral India, where the want of rain has excited apprehensions of famine both in the British territory and the native States. The central authorities, however, are determined to be on their guard in time, and have issued instruc tions to all the local officials as to the coarse which they should pursue in case of the worst. Happily rain had fallen in many places when the news left, and the prospects were much better. Still the very fact of any ground for alarm having existed, shows how necessary it is to be vigilantly on the watch in times of drought or scarcity. The extension of the means of communication throughout the country is one important method of diminishing the dan gers of famine, and almost beyond that in its value is the increase of irrigation. Some experienced Anglo-Indians have doubted whether the increase of irrigation works would diminish the risk of fa - mine ; but those who have studied the subject most assiduously are confident of the good effects of our improved water system. Since it is usually drought that produces the Indian famines, it is evident that a constant - supply of water to the soil must be an effectual means of preventing them, and we hope that whatever changes may be introduced into the administration of India, the importance of vigor ously pursuing the public works will not be under rated. The nublic health in the capital has im proved, the cholera having disappeared. In the Sholapore districts it has shown itself, and precau tionary measures have been taken with commend able promptitude. The uncovenanted service rules, which are now before the VICEROY, are reported to be very liberal, so that we may hope a more enlightened and less routine spirit is beginning to prevail in the direction of our Anglo-Indian affairs.

POLICE IN7'ELLIGENCE--This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A GENTLEMAN FALLING AMONGST THIEVES IN THE ITAYMARKET.—EIIen Harding and Catherine Foster, two prostitutes, were charged before Mr. Tyr whitt with stealing, in the Haymarket, a gold watch and scarf pin, of the value of £lB, the pro perty of Mr. Michael O'Brien, gentleman residing at No. 4, IVestbourne-grove. The prosecutor was first charged with being drunk and incapable, and fined ss. Police-constable Francis Attwood, 186 C, said —About half-past one this morning, I saw the prisoners coming up the Haymarket with a drunken gentleman between them. Knowing Harding I watched them, and when within two yards of Har ding I saw her put her hand into the gentleman's waistcoat pocket, and take out his watch and chain, and at the same time Foster put her hand into his trowsers pocket. I seized both the prisoners. A crowd got round us, and I thought Harding passed something. Another constable came to my assistance, and when we got to the Regent Circus Harding threw something away, and the constable picked it up—it was a gold pin. We took the prisoners to the station, where they were searched, and a gold watch was found on Harding. Jeremiah Mead, 336 R, said—The last witness asked me to take Harding to the station, and I did so, and while going along she threw something away, which I found, on picking up, to be a pin. Harding—l acknowledge it fell from my cloak, but I did not throw it away. Mrs. Charlotte Cane, female searcher at Vine street—Harding said she wished she might be struck dead if she had any property about her that did not belong to her, but I found upon her the watch. Mr. Michael O'Brien, of No. 4, Westbourne grove, said—l had been dining with some friends yesterday, and Ido not recollect what occurred. I had my watch and chain with me, but I recollect othiug else. The watch now produced is my pro perty, and of the value of £lB. My chain, of the value of £l5, was taken from me. Sergeant Shillingford, 4 C, asked for a remand. with the view of proving former convictions, which was granted. THAMES.

Mr. Gladstone's speech at Leigh, on Tuesday, consisted of a general review of the political questions which are now agitating the public mind. The meeting was held in tht weaving shed of a co-operative mill, which holds about 4,000 persons. The first question which occurred, there fore, was naturally that of co-operation and its relations to the disputes between capital and labour. Mr. Glad stone was anxious not to over-rate these disputes. He did not believe, as some do, that this question clouded the future of our country. He thought both classes had good sense enough to find their way through the meshes and mazes of the difficulty. But of all the plans put forward he most favoured those which, "without removing the labouring man from the class of labouring men, give him some of the sentiments and some of the interests of the capitalists." "Don't suppose," said the right hon. gentleman, "that I am one who believes that the functions of the retail tradesman— the distributor of commodities—ever can be either per manently or beneficially supplanted ; that I do not believe. I believe that the union of working men among themselves in co-operative societies may be extremely beneficial as a check upon their more ordinary method of manufacture— that of great capitalists, and of disturbing either the whole sale or retail tradesmen ; but that it will supplant those methods I, for one, wholly disbelieve. And I think it but fair to say two things . On the one hand, lam convinced it is only in the very advanced of the labouring wage-earning classes that co-operation can be carried on to a beneficial extent; but, on the other hand, the risks and responsibility of joint-stock companies are serious. I hope, therefore, that the greatest caution will ever be exercised by the labouring classes with regard to joint-stock enterprise, and I may add every other class; but wherever their joint. stock enterprise succeeds I heartily rejoice in it, and bid them God speed." But there was another mode of acljasting this difficulty to which Mr. Gladstone wished unqualified prosperity. Private individuals carried on thei* operations on the principle of joint-stock companies, and so adjusted their accounts that their workmen had an interest in the proceeds. It would be presumption in him to attempt to know when that principle was capable of extension ; but where it could it should be extended and applied. Then there was Mr. Mundella's method. To Mr. Mundella Mr. Gladstone paid a handsome compli ment, and put forward his plan of boards of arbitration as worthy of consideration. These several plans shewed, he thought, that the problem was not a hopeless one, and that we might expect from experience a solution of it. Passing from this subject the right hon. gentleman asked that he might be excused answering so many letters as had been sent to him. He assured his correspondents that their communications received the best consideration he could give to them. In his remarks upon the question of expenditure, Mr. Gladstone appeared to be more "at home." He at first corrected some errors into which he fell at Warrington, especially in the matter of the China war. It was Sir Frederick Bruce, he explained, who had been sent up the Peiho to ratify and not to negotiate the Chinese Treaty. On the matter of policy he gave no opinion whatever. " What I wished to point out was this—that the de facto cost of that war had arisen in connection with the opera tions of a former Government, and not with our Govern ment, and the fault I found at that moment was not with those who had given instructions, but the fault was with those who have at this time endeavoured to persuade the country that the cost of that war, which had grown from transactions entirely belonging to a former Government, was due to the Government of Lord Palmerston instead of being due to their predecessors." Coming to the question of the expenditure of the present Government, the speaker declared that it was not to be denied that £3,000,000 had been added to the expenditure in two years. He proceeded to reply to the rejoinder made by the other side, that he ought to have prevented that expenditure. He had received some verses from a Con. servative working man something as follows : " Now you are lecturing thro' the land And leading working men astray, By telling them things were not good For which they did their money pay. We wish to know, sir, how it is, To oppose these measures you did not strive While there was on your side, you say, A majority of sixty-five." He recognised the writer as his own flesh and blood, but he looked on him as a rarity, and compared him to a mammoth which was discovered in the White Sea some rears ago. So great a discovery was that mammoth thought, that a great value was set upon his bones. His answer, was that to challenge the expenditure was to move a vote of want of confidence in the Government. Under the circumstances which obtained last session this was impossible. The Government ought to have had and did have a chance of dealing with the question of Reform. That matter stopped any issue beilg taken in the way of public expenditure. But at the same time the Government policy was criticised. Mr. Glad stone declared that he himself had raised the question. His friends Messrs. Childers and Stansfeld had criti cised the Government. "We did endeavour to act on the Government and to produce an im pression on the House; but the House—and I do not find fault with it—was unwilling to enter into matters which, though important, were secondary to the main ques tion at issue. You have heard something this year about meetings in my sitting-room. We Lad meetings in my sitting-room to consider seriously whether we should venture this year to ask the vote of the House of Commons on the state of the public expenditure, and we deliberately decided that we should not, because the answer would have been that it would have been felt impossible to interfere with the progress of the Reform Bills, and we should have procured from the House of Commons an adverse vote on questions of expenditure, which would have been given probably from motives extraneous to questions of expenditure, but which would have been damaging to the permanent prospects of the cause of public economy. I say, therefore, that on this great question we went as far as we could—as far as we dare, as far as we should babe been justified, with regard to your interests, to go—in declaring our opinion of the conduct of the Government." Besides Iwhich4vvhenever the matter, even of the smallest importance, was brought to a division, there were the Conservatives to oppose them, so that on them, and not on the Liberals, really lay the odium of the extra expenditure. Ms'. Gladstone gave one instance in which an attempt was made to - save to the country the expense of certain commissions. The attempt succeeded, the majority being one. But Mr. Turner, his opponent, was in the division against them. The policy of the present Government here came in for strong condemnation. It was a policy of "making things pleasant all round." " That means going from town to town, granting what this community wants, granting what that community wants, granting what the other community wants, and leaving out of sight that huge public which unfortunately has not got the voices and the advocates ready always to defend it against these local and particular claims, but of which it is our highest boast that we seek to be the advocates and the champions." He instanced Whitby, where the Conservatives, having no chance of success at the election, put out this placard: " Who prevented the creation of a harbour of refuge at Whitby? The Liberals. Who wanted to spend fonr mil lions in making harbours of refuge on the eastern coast? The Conservatives." This was the way in which the Con servatives made their expenditure useful to themselves. Lord Palmerston's Government gave judicious assistance to works undertaken by a local community, and his policy did not consist in " wild extravagance and lavish assistance." "If the Government system is to be the system on which - public finance is to be administered, you must be prepared to resign all hopes of remission of taxation even in gOod years, and in bad years you must look for a steady augmen tation of the income tax." The French Treaty next engaged attention. Mr. Gladstone admitted that Coventry had suf fered from it. Butthey at Leigh were makers of heavygoods. What had caused their distress was not French competi tion, but America being shut against them, and the fluctuation of trade. Then followed a dissertation - on the advantages of free trade. He claimed that freedom had produced stability, and had prevented those fluctuations which formerly threw whole districts into distress. The speech closed by a reference to the Irish Church which "could not be omitted at an election meeting like that." Mr. Gladstone animadverted severely on the conver• sion of the Quarterly Review. The Conservative surrender, said he, has itself surrendered. The Quarterly had foi years been proposing the endowment of the Roma,nCatholics, That was an indication of the views of the Tory party. That was their choice ; in reality no plan was put against the Liberal plan. Against the Liberal policy it was argued that the Roman Catholics would never be satisfied, and would demand the repeal of the Union. " Why, gentlemen, that was the reason that was always urged against every moderate and rational plan of Parliamentary Reform. It was said, The people will not be satisfied without universal suffrage and without their having a republic.' In point of fact, it is the old principle on which our antagonists systemati cally ask that you will refuse a request which is reasonable because it may be followed by one that is unreasonable, whereas the principle on which we desire to act is this— grant the requests which arc reasonable, and then you will Lave greater power to resist the requests which are unrea- sonable." According to a Bucharest correspondent in the Augsburg Gazette, Prince Charles of Roumania bas asked the hand of the third daughter of the King of Denmark, the Princess Thyra, and has been accepted. The mar riage will take place, it is said, as soon a; the young princess, who was born on September 29, shall have attained her seventeenth year. This will closely connect Prince Charles with the courtf , 14Qn(lOn. St, retersbnrgh, and Athens. CORRESPONDENCE PROM PARIS. (mom OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. PARIS, TUESDAY, October 20. The aspect of affairs at present is decidedly pacific. A f,tiv waxlike symptoms may still be observed, but the balance is much on the other side. The Danish question has not quite subsided, the Prussian (Cross) Gazette having by an intemperate, not to say foolish article, again stirred up some little agitation here. This paper says that Prussia " will never consent to give up the position of Duppel-Alsen, which implies the possession of Flensburg. " We have never dreamed of such a renunciation, and the Danish Government, we hope, would not seriously ask it of us. If such a proposition were made, it would provoke a war to the last extremity." Fortunately, the public are beginning to learn that even continental Governments cannot always be answerable for the opinions expressed by their newspapers, and so the fire of the Gazette falls rather dead just now. Better news comes from Berlin. It is said that the furlough granted to a portion of the French army is there considered one of the best of signs. Further, the reports of an alliance between Holland and France are falling into discredit. A corre. spondent of the Temps writes to prove that such an alliance in practically impossible, and succeeds so far as anything can be proved to be impossible. Everything at present looks peaceful. Even the East is comparatively quiet. The open countenance which the Roumanian authorities have given the insurrectional,' bands of Bulgaria has been made the subject of a very mild and temperate note from the Porte. It is long since a coup d'ccil cast upon the aspect of European affairs could have so reasuring a result. The duel said to have been fought between Senor Mar fori and M. Rochefort, the editor of La Lanterne, has not yet come off. People here are much disappointed. Such an encounter would have been the most exciting of late years. The state of Algeria must be of the most deplorable rind. A horrible case of cannibalism has just come to light. On the house of an Arab who was suspected of stealing a cow being searched, a basket full of pieces of human flesh was discovered. Three heads were afterwards found. The remains were recognised as those of a woman and her two children. The wife of the Arab whose house was searched confessed the crime, saying they had been persuaded to it by two twin brothers. She said : " The three murders consummated, we cut the bodies up. The twin brothers I have already named took a part and left us the remainder, the heads, feet, and hands being comprised in our portion. Assisted by my children, I forthwith took the part allotted me home. I boiled a part, which we ate, and put the rest aside in order not to exhaust all our provisions in one day. I also flayed the three heads, and put them where they have just been found," Risk Allah is now in Paris. He makes his appearance frequently on the Boulevards with his second wife, an English blonde. The news respecting the inundations is more reassuring. The waters of the Loire are sinking. The report that M. Emile Girardin is going to bpain this week increases in strength. Unable to convert the Spaniards to Republicanism by the agency of La Liberte, he is going to attempt to do so personally. The Youvelliste de Rouen mentions a case of quadruple birth at Noueville-Coppeg,euele. A woman there, named Quillent, has just given birth to four female children, three of whom are now alive. The mother is 22 years of age. THE SPANISH REVOLUTION. The future ruler of Spain is still the subject 01 specuia- Lion as wild and contradictory as the earliest attempts to guess the "coming man." King Ferdinand of Portugal, who has been so positively mentioned by the Times, the Debuts, and others, is not mentioned in Spain, according to the correspondent of the Standard. " Ferdinand's vocation is to stuff birds, and he has the good sense to stick to it." The Spaniards themselves continue to believe in " Don Alfredo "—the Duke of Edinburgh. There is clearly nothing for it but to await the meeting of the Constituent Cortes. The Times Philadelphia correspondent says that Mr. Seward has been pressed to buy up Cuba, but hesitates. He does not like to embark in so protracted an enterprise whilst the administration of the State Department is so near its close. The United States, however, wants Cuba, and will pro bably work hard to get it. The same writer says : " The Queen of Spain has a large amount of property, some $2,000,000, invested at and near Philadelphia, and will be able to draw a good income from it in her retire ment. She has been quietly investing it through agents for ten years past, and most of it is done in the name of the Duke of Rianzares. At first the trustees of the money in this country did not act very well with it, having speculated with the fund and squandered a good deal, but they were ejected some years ago, and others appointed. The late George M. Dallas, formerly Minister to England, was at the time of his death a trustee, and acted with excellent judgment. I am told that the Queen at one time actually meditated flight to this country, and her agents were preparing to receive her." The Spanish Minister at Washington is in trouble. He does not know what to do ; he is willing to represent the new Government, but he has no credentials. The Times Paris correspondent hopes much from Olo zap, who is considered, with justice, to be the ablest statesman in Spain.—Many of the postage-stamps that recently arrived in Paris on letters from Spain had the Queen's head punched out of them, so that her Most Catholic Majesty will soon be out of print as well as out of place. It is still believed that she will not long remain at Pau. The Emperor is said to have offered her other places of residence in France, among others the Chateau d'Amboise, Queen h erse lf man if es t e d l a i n er d in it te is nti f o u n rt t h o e remove to save her Imperial entertainer from any trouble with the r said that furththeer from the frontier in order rebel Government south of the Pyrenees. The French journals are quarrelling a little over the resolution of the Junta not to hold a plebiscitum. The more extreme think this ought to have been done ; the more moderate believe that by avoiding the plebiscitum the Government has done no injustice, and has saved both time and trouble. Meanwhile addresses from all parts of Europe are pour ing in upon the unfortunate Government. Addresses of congratulation, of advice on behalf of a republic, and against slavery in the colonies, have all been numerously represented. The Courrier de Bayonne states that the ex-Queen Isabella received, on the 10th, a teleg ram congra t u l a ti ng her Majesty on the double anniversary of her birthday and her marriage. From Cuba we have some intelligence which bears the impression of authenticity. The news of the revolution caused great interest, but no commotion. The Govern ment goes on as usual. The ultimate abolition of slavery ;n the island is, however, generally expected. A correspondent of the InciSpendance Belge says that General Prim is about to publish a letter in reply to that of M. de Girardin. The object of this epistle will be to prove that a republic in Spain is altogether out of the question. There are few Republicans in the country. The candidature of Prince Alfred is still spoken of. The same writer says the crown will be offered to the English prince on condition that he marry the second daughter of the Duke of Mont pensier. At least there is a combination smongst the Spanish leaders for this purpose. The Duke and Duchess of Montpensier have sent large sums to Madrid for the succour of the wounded in the recent battle. The hospitals of Cordova, Santander, and Madrid contain large numbers cit these unfortunates. Notwithstanding the suppression of the Jesuit company, the convents, &c., the priests are everywhere well treated.

The weighing having been got through at the Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire Stands whenever it was possible, the numbers of the twenty-four competitors wore hoisted in capital time, and Mr. M'Goorge had the lot under orders by four o'clock, the hour fixed for the race, but the usual anxiety of the jockeys to get off, and the fractiousness of Kidderminster and Python, caused a delay of twenty-eight minutes before the flag could be lowered, which it eventually was to a wretched start—fifteen out of the lot getting away in a line, while the remainder came on in straggling order, the last three to get away being Lady Raglan, Noyau, and Kidderminster. When they had fairly settled down to their work the line was broken by Mercury, in the centre of the course, taking a slight lead of Snowdrop on the upper ground, Kettleholdor lying on the latter's right, Nelusko, Actma, Warrington, See-Saw, Blue Gown, Kingsland, and Lady Coventry following closely, the Makeshift colt and Mon arch of the Glen heading the remainder ; the last lot, upon whom the cracking pace at which Mercury led the field began to tell being Professor Anderson, Porter's Knot, Restitution, Lady Raglan, Noyau, and Kiddermin ster. The first to give way was Nelusko, whose retire ment took place before reaching the turn of the lands, where the ruck became even more densely packed, and Mercury drew at least a clear length of Snowdrop, Blue Gown being observable in the centre, with Warrington and Kingsland in attendance, Fordhatn taking a line for himself on See-saw in the track, the colours of Wolsey now being seen with those of Taraban on the extreme lower ground. Before reaching the red post the field became somewhat straggled, and Mr. Angell's pair, Kettle holder and Python, took their places on the top ground simultaneously with the retirement of Actael. Passing the old betting post Snowdrop was in trouble, and the ruck breaking up, Cecil, who had been shut in, ran through his horses and took the fifth position just behind Blue Gown; but Mercury was at this point at least three lengths in front, making the pace so hot that the Cesare witch winner, after looking dangerous for a few strides, compounded, and was passed by Warrington, the Make shift colt, and Restitution, the latter of whom passed a lot of beaten horses. As they approached the site of the old Duke's stand Blue Gown and See-Saw decreased Mercu ry's advantage, and a distance and a half from home the Northern horse was disposed of, dropping into the rear of Blue Gown and See-Saw, both of whom were going so well that it was impossible to say which had the best of it. See-Saw, however, after racing at Blue Gown's head for a few strides, took up the running, and at the commencement of the stand enclosure was a length in front of his opponent, nothing else being within hail, and though Wells made every exertion, and the Derby winner answered to each call with great gameness, the weight told its tale at the finish, and See-Saw forging , gradually ahead, won easily by a length and a half. Mer cury was third, beaten three lengths from Sir Joseph Hawley's colt, and finished a head only in front of the Makeshift colt, who was placed fourth. Then came Lady Coventry fifth, four lengths off, Actrea being sixth, Resti tution seventh, Warrington eighth, Cecil ninth, and Snow drop next, slight intervals intervening. Kettleholdor was eleventh, Nelusko twelfth, Lady Raglan thirteenth, Pro fessor Anderson, Noyau, Kingsland, Porter's Knot, Wol sey, Taraban, Python, and Monarch of the Gle n fi n i s hi ng in the order named, and Kidderminster, the Princess colt, and Kaupai pulling up on the post last.
