WEDNESDAY. The old course at Castle 1r well having been taken out of the hands of the Blanchester race committee, owing to the termination of the lease, a , 4 fresh field " has been secured, greater advantages than those whichtheby o old locality. facalirty. The new course is situated within an easy distance of the town, and the running ground has been admirably laid out and I )eked after. There is a straight run of at least 1,000 yards, and generally the construction of the course has been carefully consi dered, the turns being easy. The new grand stand, which has been constructed at an enormous cost, will be when complete quite a model building, replete with every conve nience, both with regard to the accommodation afforded to the public and the arrangements necessary for efficiently carrying out the business, arrangements of the meet ing. The first day's racing over the new terrain was only moderately successful, the fields being small in most instances, and the sport of but average quality. Of the six subscribers for the Clumber Stakes three ran, and of these the favourite, Gordian Knot, fiuiihed Wains easily beating First Fruits. For Copeland Stakes odds were I mid on The Hind, who very easily disposed of the half dozen opposed to her. Another favourite scored another equally easy win for the De Trafford Cup, and backers fol lowed up their luck in the easy victory of Chivalry for the Westmorland Handicap. Gordian Knot, despite his de feat earlier in the day, was again the most fancied for the Pendleton Stakes; but fortune again favoured the fielders, and the race was won by Verity. The layers had, how ever, by far the worst of it ; and the last race of the day re sulted in the victory of another warm favourite in Patri cian, on whom odds were laid, and who very easily beat the pair opposed to him. . _ The Clumber Stakes ofs sous each, with 50 added; two year olds 6st 71b, three Bst 121 b, four 10st, five and up wards lOst 51b; mares and geldings allowed 31b; the winner to be sold for 300 sovs ; if for 200 sous allowed 51b, 100 101 b ; if not for sale 101 b extra ; one mile ; 6 subs.

Mr. Naylor's mare was in diffi culties at the distance, and the Clown was left with a clear lead, Butler keeping him at work all the way.

Again have the members of the Croydon committee most profitably "improved the occasion" by instituting another suburban meeting during a comparatively blank week. The splendid weather that, throughout the Whit suntide holidays, has favoured the pleasure-so 'kers still furnished an additicnal inducement to visitors, and the number of shillings taken at the gate must have consider ably enriched the race fund. The new stand and enclo sure at Croydon has been constructed with every regard to the comfort and convenience of the public, and there is probably no minor meeting held in any part of the king dom at which the accessories and business arrangements have received so much attention. The one drawback to the entire success of the day's sport, and one which must have tended in a great measure to reduce the strength of the fields to the different events, was the hardness of the ground. The card embraced seven items, and, although the racing w as of average int3rest, the sport presented few features worthy of especial comment. Nine ran for the opening race of the day, the Woodside Plate ; and of these The Llackler and Traviata were the most fancied, but neither showed prominently in the race, which resulted in a triumph for the fielders in the victory of an outsider in Astracan. Thero was a tiresome " wait" before the five sent to the post for the Committee Stakes could be de spatched on their journey, owing to the fractiousness of Paleface, who could not be induced to join her herses, and her vagaries at the post caused her to retire horn the posi tion of first favourite, which she had held when the bet ting opened, her place being usurped by Lillie, who won easily. Tina, on account of the form she displayed in the first race of the day, when she ran second to Astracan, was made the favourite for the Town Plate, and she justified the confidence reposed in her by "walking in." Any odds were laid on Electricity for the Two-year-old Stakes, which was reduced to a match between the favourite and Lord Poulett's Tradewind, the former winning with great ease. There was another long and wearisome delay over the Half-mile Sweepstakes for two and three-year-olds, which resulted in the defeat of the favourite, King Richard, and a splendid race between Bouquetiere and Arkadi, the former winning by a head. The fielders had a " tura-up" in the victory of Cataline for the Welter Cup, the winner being the worst fancied of the four starters. Lonsdale, the winner of the Nursery Plate, was objected to on the ground of a cannon, but Mr. Heathcote, who acted for the stewards, considered the evidence insufficient to justify him in reversing the judge's decision.

No change occurred in their order till coming within the straight, when Bouquetiere on the inside headed Arkadi, asd the three placed raced home together, and after a fine struggle Bouquetiere won very cleverly by a head, Arkadi only de feating Pearl Mosque for second place by the same dis tance. King Richard was a good fourth, Dr. Wilson fifth, Peckwater sixth, Sultana seventh, Pales eighth, braid of Burleigh ninth, Clifton tenth, and Brenda walked in with the crowd. Mr. 11.

While the ointment passes through the pores of the skin, as water saturates the soil or as salt penetrates meat, the pills act upon the blood, which they correct and purify. The whole physical machinery is thus rendered healthy, regular, and vigorous. The cure thus effected is not partial and temporary, the disease is entirely and for ever driven from the system, and the pa tient need not be apprehensive of its return.

On Wednesday, the Annual Moveable Committee of the Manchester - Unity of Odd Fellows, which is in session at Cheltenham, gave a very important decision with respect to the age at which members shall be received into the order. A proposition from the Aberdare district was introduced by the Rev. Dr. Price, and its purport was' to give districts power to receive members of the age of 16, but such members were not to be allowed to enter lodges during lodge hours, or receive signs or pass words, or be entitled to cards of clearance until they attained the age of 18—the minimum age at which mem. bers have hitherto been received. The subject has been discussed at intervals by the A.M.C. for the last ten years, and at Plymouth it was decided by a majority of two votes to reduce the age at which members may be received from 18 to 16. A demand was made for the names and votes of the delegates to be recorded, and on that being done the small majority in favour of the change was converted into a majority of three against it. This year the matter again gave rise to a long and animated discussion, in which nearly forty delegates took part. An effort was made to defer the question for another year, on the ground that the change proposed would be inconsistent with rules that would remain un altered, and that there were not tables of rates of con. tribution for members of 18 years of age. Tho amendment was rejected by a decisive majority, and amidst considerable excitement the original proposition was carried by 109 to 95 votes, and in accordance with a demand made to that effect, the names and addresses of the delegates who voted on the question were recorded. The result, therefore, of the decision of the A.M.C. is, that in future youths of 16 may become members of the order, subject to the restrictions as to their rights and privileges already indimted. SUPPOSED SUICIDE THROUGH BETTING, An inquiry was held yesterday by Mr. W. Payne, coroner, in Waterloo-road, respecting the death of Mr. Thomas Whitehead, aged 60 years. The deceased was a cutter at a clothier's in Cloth-fair, and his son deposed that he was aware of the fact that his father was given to betting, but as he was a very " close man "he never told whether he had won or lost. Mr. Jones Milet, of the European Coffee House, in the West- minster-road, said that on Friday night, at eleven o'clock, the deceased came to his house and took a bed. He was so sad that he could hardly speak. He said that a friend of his had told him to back Pace, one of the horses that was to run for the Derby. He had done so and lost. He went to bed in the top room. Witness heard him place the washhand - stand and a chair against the door: On Saturday he did not come downstairs, and witness then forced open the door, He found the de ceased seated on the floor at the end of the bedstead. He had tied a rope round his neck, and then fastened it to the pole of the bedstead. He had then sat down upon the floor and pressed his body forward. He was quite dead. Several papers relating to betting and racing were found upon the deceased. He had lost money on the Derby and Oaks. The jury returned a verdict of Temporary In sanity. THE NEW LAW ON CAPITAL PIINISHMENT.—This statute, whose operation extends to the whole of the United Kingdom, has been printed. There are certain modifications as regards Scotland and Ireland. The sheriff is to see the law carried out ; the surgeon is to sign a certificate, and a coroner's inquest is to be held. The certificate of death is to be exhibited for twenty-four hours near to the principal entrance of the prison. The Home Secretary is empowered to make rules for carrying Lie new law into effect. SEIZURES or Tosscco.—Extensive seizures of adulterated tobacco have been made recently in the city of Waterford. No less than seventy rolls of " twist " were taken from one manufacturer, thirty from another, and smaller quantities from several others. The tobacco was forwarded to Dublin for analysis, and, should it prove to be adulterated, the parties will be prosecuted. An Irish paper suggests that the revenue officer who made the seizure should turn his attention to the sale of adulterated liquors, observing that the stuff now sold to the poorer classes as whisky is often little short of rank poison. NARROW ESCAPE. —A day or two ago an accident, which might have had more serious consequences, hap pened to the Earl and Countess of Dunmore. It appears that a cab ran into their brougham, breaking the shafts and sending the horses at a furious gallop down Grosvenor. place. The carriage came into collision with a lamp-post, and threw the footman and coachman, the legs of the latter getting entangled in one of the wheels. The horses fell and the brougham was smashed, but fortunately neither the earl nor countess were injured. The coachman was conveyed to the hospital. The footman's injuries were slight. AN UNNATURAL MOTLIER.—About a fortnight ago, Jenifer Gill, a married woman residing in Penryn, gave birth to a male child, since which she has been con-, tinually intoxicates. On Saturday she left the infant in bed, a little sister being in the room below. After a short time the girl went into a neighbour's house, and said she had tried to wake the baby, but could not. A woman went in, and found that the child was dead. The wretched mother was at the same time in a public-house helplessly drunk. The registrar has refused a certificate for the% burial, and requires that an inquest shall be held ; but it is feared that no punishment can The awarded the wornazo i heartless crime.— Ircstern Morning News. PBTCE OF MILK.—A correspondent of the Manchester Courier, thus descants upon the present high pr i ce o f m ilk :—" Some time ago our milk-vendors took advantage of the exaggerated rumours of cattle plague to add a penny the quart to this most important neces sary of life. Never were cattle more healthy, or their food more abundant, than at the present time, yet milk still stands at the rinderpest prices of 1866, and out of the reach of the poor, but in the smallest quantities. And as for nutrition and health, especially to children, no fluid can ever be found to take the place of milk. May not its dearth be.one of the causes of the degeneracy of our children, and the high death-rate in our city? And, at the same time, I am told that some of onr dairymen aro making fortunes quite disproportionate to their positio;
