CHAT IN CHESTEIt OR, THE GRACES OF TILE RACES. Two comrades in Chester, called Harry and James (For I think 'twill be better to mention their nameS), Had a sociable chat as they walk'd in the Which chat I would humbly beg leave to transpose. What thousands (said Barry) assembled to see The race for the Cup on the spacious " Roodeg." What numbers of beautiful lasses attended ! Tne sight they presented was perfectly splendid. Their sweet pretty faces, And personal graces, Added much to the beautiful sight at the Races. " Very true (said his friend, with a nod), very true ! But did you not notice the gentlemen too. I am told that the gentlemen (fifty to one) Were drest in the fashions of MOSES and SON ; And really such fashions I never beheld — Such garments were certainly never excell'd, My eye was so won IV MOSES and SON, That I look'd not to see how the race would be run." " Well, well (exclaim'd Harry, with jocular nudge), Do you fancy that you are the fitly good judge ? I never saw fashions so much to my mind, Nor dresses of such a superior kind. The Over-Coats made me so anxious for one, That I've sent up an order to MOSES and SON. The fact of the case is i t ch th added e se 'V (In spite of fair faces), Thawere mtituecgh to race the s late Chester Races."

J. E. Daniel, then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for his lost hair. Under these circumstances ' he was induced to try the effect of ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, and it is highly gratifying to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was used the growth recommenced, and he has new to bo. st of a very thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity, that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl, the new growth is curly and strong. This fact speaks too strongly for itself to require observation.—Bell's Messenger. *,,,* Beware of " Spurious Imitations !—The genuine article has the words " ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL "on the wrapper.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUM ATIC PILLS Copy of a Letter from Mr. Blake, Kingseliffe, Northampton- ihire:— "Kingscliffe, January 21, 1847. " Sir, —Twelve years ago I became afflicted with Rheumatic Gout. I procured the best advice possible, but without deriving benefit ; and the doctors recommended me to go to the Stamford Infirmary, where I continued twelve weeks, and left it without obtaining any benefit, and all hope of relief had vanished. " This hopeless state of things continued until a friend advised me to try Blair's Pills. I then lost no time in sending to Mr. Mortlock, of Stamford, for a box, and by the time I had taken that quantity I got rid of one crutch. I then sent for another box, which enabled me to throw away the other, and, thank God, I have never since had such an attack. " lam much exposed to cold ; but, whenever I feel symptoms 01 attack, I have recourse to the Pills with universal success. _ _ 4 . I recommended the Pills to a gentleman who resides in this neighbourhood, and he has derived the most essential relief there from, and is now never without them. " You may publish this for the benefit of those similarly afflicted. "I am, Sir, your obedient, humble servant, " SAMUEL BLAKE, "Smith and Farrier." The never-falling effects of BLAIR'S 0017 - T and RHEUMATIC PILLS in curing every description of Gout and Rheumatism, have secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, but restore to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are equally speedy and certain in Lumbago, Sciatica, Pains in the Head or Face, and indeed of every Rhematie or Gouty affection ; in fact, sucn has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it, and there is scarcely a city, town, or village in the kingdom, but contains many grateful evidences of its benign influence. Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London ; and by his appoint ment by all respectable Medicine Venders throughout the United Kingdom. Price 28. 9d. per box.

REDUCTION Or RENT.--We understand that Mr. Burn, factor on the estate of Stewarthall, has intimated to the tenants that the trustees have granted a handsome re duction of rent this year. This is following up what the late worthy landlord of Stewarthall publicly announced be fore his death—that should the Legislature throw open the ports, and he had no doubt but they would, he would be amongst the first to let down his rent, and also to- throw the restriction of maximum and minimum to the winds; and judging from the praiseworthy m anner in which the trustees have acted, we have no doubt but they will follow up the remainder of the late worthy gentleman's promise.— Stirling Journal. rADVERTISEMENT.]—The Registered Paletot of Llama cloth, the most fashionable coat for both the present and approaching seasons, still retains the same moderate price, which, with its usefu lness and gentlemanly appear ance, has secured such genera l p o p ul arity.

The Earl of Mornington yesterday attended before Mr. Bingham, in obedience to a summons, to show cause why he neglected to maintain his wife, Helena, Countess of Mornington, whereby she had become chargeable to the parish of St. George, Hanover-square. Mr. Clarkson, his Lordship's professional adviser, and his Lordship retired out of court, and had a consulta tion in the library for about an hour. On their return into court, Mr. Smith, the relieving overseer of St. George's, said—Sir, this is an application on the part of the parish of St. George, Hanover-square, against the Earl of .Mornington, to compel his Lordship to consent to allow Helena, his wife, a sufficient maintenance for her support. It is unusual for ladies in Lady Mornington's station of life to make applications of this sort through the agency of a police-court ; but she has been sworn to the truth of her statement of utter destitution, and she has de clared that she is destitute, and has been for a length of time dependent on Mr. Thomas, of Hatehett's Hotel, for support. The parish was anxious to avoid this applica tion, and it was hoped that an arrangement satisfactory to all parties would have been entered into ; but, as this has not been done, the parish has been obliged to proceed. Mr. Clarkson Sir, I apprehend that in your correct judgment you will decide that the subject matter of this inquiry by no means entitles me to cross-examine that party through whom this application of the parish officers originates, as to the circumstances of her life, or with reference to the enormous sums dispensed by Lord Mornington for her support. I am not permitted to go into the circum stances which have so placed the party who, at the in stance of others, has presented this means of annoyance to Lord Mornington, and I am prohibited by Lord Mornington, who is desirous of sparing pain to the dis tinguished members of his own family, from eliciting those particulars by eross-examination. Therefore, the only question open is as to the distress which Lady Mornington says she endures; whether that distress has been provoked by Lady Mornington's own extravagance, or by the absence of means from Lord Mornington, it is not necessary to inquire. The sums advanced by the parish of St. George will be repaid by Lord Morning ton. I will not enter into private transactions further than to state, that it is only three weeks ago that 8001. a year on security was offered to Lady Mornington. Lady Mornington declined the offer ; possibly because she conceives that, by certain instruments now under investigation in a superior court, she is entitled to more. I have, however, his Lordship's directions to state, that if the Court really thinks he ought to pay money to the parish officers for Lady Mornington's support, he will readily and cheerfully do so ; but, if this application is intended to annoy and worry the noble person for whom I appear, or the eminent members of his family—l do not complain of what has publicly appeared ; the public have a right to know what passes in a court of justice— but I say, if in truth the object of this proceeding be to obtain for Lady Mornington a substantial maintenance from Lord Mornington— Mr. BINGHAM—I must stop you here, Mr. Clarkson, to say, that this cannot be the object of the application, as such a result as you hint at is not within my juris diction. Mr. Clarkson—You heard a statement the other day calculated to create a certain impression. However, on the part of Lord Mornington, I am here to bow to your decision, whether it be for a maintenance prospectively or retrospectively for Lady Mornington, and to engage, on the part of Lord Mornington, that payment shall be kept up until such time as a superior Court decides on the amount of income Lady Mornington is entitled to. If, then, Lady Mornington's object be to obtain a per manent provision for her support, that provision shall be provided. And, lastly, whatever may be his Lord ship's privilege in right of the dignity he holds, I am authorised by his Lordship to say, that he should feel ashamed to avail himself of any such privilege, and that he is quite ready to attend to the order of the Court. A gentleman named Manning, who accompanied Lady Mornington when the previous application was made, here rose and begged to be allowed to say a few words. _ _ Mr. BINGHAM—UnIess you attend professionally I must request you to sit down. Ido not know who you are, but it is not permitted to bear parties not pro fessional. Mr. Manning—l am not a solicitor, nor am lat the bar ; but I have practised as a special pleader. Mr. 13INGHAm—Do you practise now? Mr. Manning—No. Mr. BitiGuam—Then I can't hear you. Mr. Clarkson—On the part of Lord Mornington, I can have no objection to bear whatever that gentleman may have to say to the Court. Mr. Manning—l only rose for the purpose of paying a compliment to the Learned Gentleman for the dis , erect way in which he had conducted the case, and to give a complete denial to the insinuation that Lady Mornington's distress has arisen from any extravagance on her part. Mr. BINGHAM—It is unnecessary to address the Court, the matter being now at an end. I must deal with the case in the same• way as I deal with ordi nary applications from parish officers who apply for an order on a husband to maintain his wife. I must have all reasonable expenses and outlay on the part of the parish satisfied. The applicant is not young, and appears infirm, and she must have relief accordingly. If the sum paid by the parish for such relief be repaid, that is all the parish can require, and there is an cud of the case. - Mr. Clarlcson—Lord Mornington has recently put five guineas into the bands of the parish officers for the use of Lady Mornington. We submit to the decision of the Court cheerfully. Mr. BINGHAM—I can only deal with this case as the case of a pauper receiving relief in the workhouse, that pauper being infirm and advanced in life. I can make no distinction between this and any other case in the workhouse. The only differences in these cases is that some require, from age and infirmity, more relief than others, but I have no power to sanction more than ordi nary assistance. Mr. Smith—With respect to the five guineas, I re ceived the money for Lady Mornington, under a pledge that I would not say from whom it came. Lord Mornington—l thought it advisable then that it should not be mentioned where the money came from. I .ILINJ.La• A.A,F•J ••••• - think it right to state now that I gave it. Mr. Smith—Lady Alornington refused to receive it as soon as she was told that she was not to know the per son's name who sent it. The case here closed, and all parties left the court. SCULLERS MATCH FOR 301., BETWEEN JOHNSON AND DOYLE•—The scullers match between these below-bridge men, which has caused much speculation amongst the " wise men of the east," was decided yesterday afternoon. Both men, from past exploits, are known to fame, and the interest was consequently not confined to their own locality. Both have won several matches, and last year Doyle, with Prince for partner, won the " oars match" at Putney Regatta. The friends of each man were very confident ; both were in first- rate condition, Johnson being the stronger man, and Doyle the neater sculler. Betting in favour of Doyle. The course was from Putney to Mortlake, with the tide. At half-past four the men took their stations, Doyle at the centre arch, and Johnson at the one to the Fulham side of it. Much finesse was displayed at starting; but after three false starts they went off, Doyle instantly showing slightly in front, this position he improved, owing to Johnson having to avoid some barges moored in his course; but opposite Finch's the struggle was renewed, and the men became scull and scull, both rowing " all they knew." Now the strength of John son began to tell, and he drew his boat ahead, and at Rose Cottage Doyle made a gallant spurt to wrest his position from him, but failed to do so, and Johnson gaining fresh heart from his opponent's discomfiture, redoubled his efforts, and continued steadily to improve his advantage, coming in a winner by twelve boats' length. John Phelps, of Fulham, trained and steered the winner. PROPAGATION or TER GOSPEL IN FOREIGN PARTS. —On Monday the usual anniversary sermon for the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts was preached in St. Paul's Cathedral.

Yesterday an inquest was held at the Marquis Cornwallis Inn, Ipswich, on the body of Elizabeth Eager, an itinerant Italian musician, aged 17 years. It appeared from the evidence that on the previous day, about ten o'clock in the evening, the deceased and another girl were in the Rainbow public-house, playing on the tambourine and piano, when George Barker, who was present, after having invited the deceased to accompany him out of the house, which she refused to do, followed her into the street, and commenced pulling her about, and succeeded in getting hold of the stick on which the piano rested. She attempted to get it out of his hands, when he struck her on the face with it, and she fell to the ground, and never spoke after, but died in about twenty minutes. Several persons were present when the struggle for the stick took He pla was ce, and Barker was secured and given into custody. tipsy at the time, and had been so for some time. Mr. Ballen, who bad made a post mortem examination of the body, said he had no doubt as to the cause of the death of the girl. The inquest was then adjourned until the following day. MONEY MARKET. —The premium on gold at Paris by the last advices was 14 per mile, which, at the Eng lish Mint price of 31. 17s. 1041 per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.50 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.60, it follows that gold is 0.39 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 432, per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. loid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.8 : 2; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13.91, it follows that gold is 0.23 per cent. dearer LOII4P thOn in Hamburgh, PRICE SD. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSbIOUTH, MAY 4.—The Courts-martial on the officers and crew of the Thunderbolt took place to-day.

WRECK OF HER MAJESTY'S STEAMER THUNDERBOLT. PORTSMOUTH, MAY 4.—The inquiry into the circumstances attending the wreck of her Majesty's steamer Thunderbolt, in Algoa Bay, in February last, commenced yesterday by court-martial, ordered by the Admiralty to try Commander A. Boyle, and the officers and crew, for their conduct on the occasion. The members of the court consisted of Rear-Admiral Parker, C. 8., president; Captain Pasco, Victory; Captain Chads, C. 8., Excellent; Captain Milne, St. Vincent; Cap tain S. C. Dacres, Avenger. Mr. G. L. Greetham officiated as judge-advocate. It appeared by documentary and oral evidence that the Thunderbolt was proceeding to Algoa Bay, in pursuance of orders from Rear-Admiral Dacres, to convey from thence to Simon's Bay part of the 90th Regiment; that on Feb. 3, about noon, while entering the bay, and rounding a reef, she struck on a sunken rock, and received such severe injury that Commander Boyle deemed it advisable to use his utmost endeavours to run her on shore to save the lives of the crew, the leak being so extensive ; that having done so, he tried, with his own crew and the assistance of some troops from the shore, to land the stores and pump the vessel dry, and, if possible, repair the damage, and was subsequently aided in his exertions by seamen from the President and the Eurydice, when those frigates joined, nineteen days after the accident; but finding all their efforts fruitless, and the executive officers giving as their opinion that if afloat she could not be repaired in Algoa Bay, the senior officer determined on abandoning her to the Government authorities on shore, which was done accord ingly, and they were instructed to sell her to the best ad vantage. The officers and men, with great part of her stores, were then embarked in the Eurydice, and she carried them to the Cape. The reading of the narrative of Commander Boyle, the reports of Rear-Admiral Dacres, Captain Stanley, and Captain Anson, and the examination of witnesses as to the track of the Thunderbolt, the precautions taken to navigate her in safety, and other matters relat ing to the transaction, and such as are customary in inquiries of this nature, occupied the Court all the day, when, it being four °clock, the Court signified to Commander Boyle, and Mr. Milne, the master, that they were prepared to their their defences, and on those officers requesting until this morning to prepare, the Court complied with their wishes and adjourned. The Court assembled at ten o'clock this morning, when Commander Boyle and the Master produced their statements of the occurrecce, which were read to the Court, and afterwards placed with the proceedings. The attention of the Court yesterday was most pa ticularly directed to the circumstance of a com pliance with the Admiralty sailing instructions, which direct that in entering Algua Bay all ships should give the reef on which the Thunderbolt struck a clear offing of two miles; in this instance the Thunderbolt was steered within one mile, and the officers admitted that if she had been kept acccording to the sailing instructions she would not have been lost. This departure from a most important regulation evidently influenced the Court in their judgment, for, after it had been cleared to deliberate on the sentence, and the public admitted to hear it read, the Judge- Advocate, after reciting the usual form, pronounced the opinion of the Court to be, that her Majesty's late steamer, Thunderbolt, had been wrecked through inattention and neglect, and .sentenced Commander Alexander . Boyle, and Mr. J. D. Milne, master, to be dismissed her Majesty's ser vice; but, in consequence of the production of high testi monials of former character and ability, recommended them to the favourable consideration o f the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty. After the conclusion of this Court-Mar tial, the same members were sworn to try the carpenter of the Thunderbolt for drunkenness, subsequent to leaving her, and while on board the Eurydice taking a passage to Simon's Bay. The charge was fully proved, and he was sentenced to be dismissed the service. THE LORD-LIEUTENANT OF IRELAND.

MORPHIA VERSUS ETHER FOR SURGICAL OPERA TlONS.—Excision of the mamma was performed here lately by Dr. Chisholm, assisted by Dr. Ross, Cambusmore, Sutherlandshire, Dr. Wilson, and Mr. Manford, the patient being placed under the influence of morphia instead of ether, with the moat satisfactory result. The patient underwent the operation with the greatest firmness and composure, stat ing afterwards that it was not nearly so severe as she anti cipated. She has felt no pain whatever since the part was dressed after the operation, and she has been able to go home to the country within a fortnight from that period, quite well, the cure having taken place in the most favourable manner by what surgeons term the first intention. Dr. Chisholm is of opinion that morphia will be found safely to supersede ether in all the cases to which it is at present in its new character applied.—lnverness Journal.

THE LITERARY ASSOCIATION OF THE FRIENDS OF POLAND. The fifteenth anniversary meeting of the members and friends of this association took place on Monday, at the rooms of the society, Sussex-chambers, Duke-street. Lord Dudley Stuart occupied the chair, and amongst the gentlemen present were—The Marquis of Northamp ton, the Earl of Arundel and Surrey, M.P., the Earl of Zetland, the Lord Beaumont, the Lord Foley, Samuel Rogers, Esq., J. Abel Smith, Esq., M.P., W. Pinney, Esq., M.P., W. Williams, Esq., M.P., Captain Towns bend, R.N., the Rev. Dr. Worthington, Frederick Pigou, Esq., J. Ashley Warre, Esq., R. Graves, Macdonnell, LL.D., W. L. Birbeck, Esq., &c. The CHAIRMAN having briefly called the attention of the meeting to the order of the business, requested Dr. Macdonnell to read the report. That document was even more interesting, and much more lengthy, than usual. It referred largely to the fruitful subject of the annexation of Cracow, and re marked with regard to it, that though that event was greatly to be deplored, it was yet fraught with the germs of present and future freedom, so strong was the indignation which it had aroused through the whole of Western Europe. It also alluded to the affair of the nuns of Minsk, and referred to the reception which the abbess had met with at the Vatican as a strong proof ot the opinion entertained of the veracity of that lady by the Pont , tf. Amongst the receipts ot the pnst year were, 6031. from the ball at Willis's Rooms, 4861. from the ball at Guildhall, and 2641. from donations and annual subscriptions. The expenditure included 2821. for relief to refugees on the permanent list, 394/. for refugees on the temporary list, 1201. for relief in sickness, 711. for as sistance to leave the country, 771. for education, and 201. 6,r funerals. It added that there were at present some what less that 500 refugees in Great Britain, and the council availed itself of that opportunity to pay a tribute to the almost unvarying good conduct which had cha racterised these persons. When it was considered that nearly one-half of them had been only private soldiers .if the revolutionary army, and consequently with but small education, that circumstance rendered their gene ral good conduct the more commendable. On the motion of the Earl of ARUNDEL and SURREY, seconded by the Rev. Dr. WORTHINGTON, the report was agreed to. Lord BEAUMoNT, in an eloquent speech, proposed the next resolution, which was as follows:—" That the ex tinction of the last relic of Polish independence by the annexation of the republic of Cracow to Austria, renders it more imperative on free and civilised Europe to use all practicable and legitimate means for the entire restoration of Poland." He saw nothing in the recent transactions with regard to Cracow at all calculated to dispel the faith of the Poles in their ultimate freedom, but, on the contrary, to increase their hopes; and he thought that man must be but a shallow observer of passing events who did not see a state of things on the continent of Europe, which must inevitably lead to the recognition of the right of Poland to independence.— (Cheers.) As knowledge became extended, and liberal opinions and sentiments obtained possession in the minds of surrounding nations, they might rely upon it that the other Cabinets interested in the welfare and peace of Europe would call on Russia and Austria to step in their headlong career of crime and tyranny, and no longer attempt to raze out of the map of existence a whole race, which, in ancient times, as well as in com paratively modern times, had acted one of the most brilliant parts that ornamented the page of European history.—(Cheers.) Mr. PINNEY, M.P., seconded the resolution, and it was carried with acclamation. Mr. J. A. WARRE moved the third resolution, which was in the following terms:—" That the rules and reso lutions of the association, as amended by the committee appointed for their revision, be adopted and printed." Mr. E. JOHNSTONE secon ded the resolution, and it was carried unanimously. A series of resolutions relating to the re-appointmen of the president, and other officers of the institution,wera subsequently proposed , in t he course of which the Earl of Zetland, Mr. Kirby, Mr. Pritchard, Lord Foley, Cap tain Townsend, Mr. Williams. M.P., and other well known advocates of the cause of Poland, addressed the meeting. We regret that want of space prevents any further reference to their speeches. On the motion of Mr. SAMUEL ROGERS,.secoLded by the Chevalier B. de WIERCINSKI, a complimentary vote was passed to the Chairman. The NOBLE CHAIRMAN, in acknowledging the honour took the opportunity of glancing at the state of conti nental politics from the middle of the 16th century down to the recent annexation of Cracow, and referred at considerable length to the speeches of Lord G. Ben tinck and Mr. Disraeli in the recent debate upon the subject in the House of Commons. With reference to the association of which he had the honour to 12eee President, he thought that one o f its greatest adva ntages d publicthefor t attention them once get public opinion to be off ltlye wi th h justice of their them deeply imbue it with t a sen mus, prevail.

( Ch e ers.) f, then, they could in any degree aid the progress of that public opinion, and circulate truth with regard to their cause, they should feel that they had not set there in vain. Truth and justice must at length e p a re o vil. se a the lt in m te ig ra h s t t be lo s of rulers before olerean th aa a m t h t i i t m io e n a s rrv m i e ed n, be-were opposed es of o f t e h v e e m—he had r yt h t ing y that eaesn good,Nva r e a great, re against n just, s by t the aod noble, either in sentiment, morality, or religion ; but let them do all in their power to make their cause better . known, and they mi g ht res t con fid en t t h a t, through the justice of the Almighty, Poland's rights would ulti mately be restored. The Noble Lord resumed his seat amidst unbounded applause, and the meeting immediately afterwards separated.
