SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. EPSOM RACES-TUESDAY. The annual sporting festival on Epsom Downs com menced to-day under the most propitious influences — bright skies and pleasant breezes compensating in some degree for the dreary weather which attended the early meetings of the season. The backwardness of the sum mer has, however, had the effect of giving to the c ountry a fresher aspect than it usually wears at this period of the year, and of investing it with all the verdure and beauty of spring. Tho " opening day"—never attractive to the masses — did not draw more than an average attendance of fo thatthe Downs, the majority being, as usual, compos e d large section of the communit y who have direct interest in the sporting business of the day. At two o'clock, the hour at which the first race commenced, punctually to the time announced, the course presented a very ani mated appearance ; and the visitors by road and rail con tinued_ to arrive in a brisk stream for some time after wards. Much praise is due to the care and exertions of Mr. Dorling, who for some weeks past has had a large number of men employed in rolling and putting the course in order ; had his operations been assisted by a few showers of rain, the ground would have been in first rate condition. Amongst the alterations and improvements that have been made for facilitating the business of this meeting, nothing more important has been effected than the ex tension of the electric telegraph wires from Croydon to the Grand Stand on Epsom Downs, where a temporary office has been erected for the transmission of messages to all parts of the kingdom. To racing and betting men this arrangement will be of infinite value, while there is every reason to believe that it will prove largely remu nerative to the company. Until the present meeting expressas have been ordinarily transmitted by pigeons, a mode that was not without its inconveniences ; but which will now be wholly obviated by the rapidity, the certainty, and the illimitable use that may be made of the wires as a means of communication. Whilst noticing the facilities afforded to the public, we should not omit alluding to the attention which has at length been paid by the lessee of the Grand Stand to the requirements of the representatives of the press, by the erection of suitable accommodation over the private stand of the members of the Jockey Club, for the exclu sive use of the turf reporters, who will, therefore, no longer be hustled amongst the crowd in the enclosure, where it was utterly impossible they could perform their duties satisfactorily. The subjoined return will show there was an ample supply of sport. For the Craven Stakes the whole number of entries went to the post, and Grapeshot's achievement gave encouragement to the hopes of the back-rs of Honeywood for the Derby. 11 to 2 was im mediately taken about him. Pharos, on the contrary, siva3 somewhat dimmed by Harbinger's defeat. The WOODCOTE STAKES were won cleverly by Mr. E. R. Cooper's colt by Cotherstone out of the Empress. Sine gni, Non, who made the running, lost the lead to him at the distance, and was eventually beaten cleverly by three quarters of a length. The President was a vt ry good third, with Alas and Punch Box close up. The appended details of the other races render further comment unnecessary. The sport was decided as follows : CRAVEN STAKES of 10 sovs. each, with 50 added ; for 3-yr-olds 7st llb ; four, Bst 71b ; five, Bst 131 b ; si x , and aged, 9st ; mares allowed 51b. and geldings 31b.

KOSSIITH.—Last evening a public meeting of the inhabitants of Marylebone was held in the Court-house of that parish, "to adopt a pe tition to Parliament, and an address to the Queen, con demnatory of the employment of the police in disguise for political purposes, and of the unworthy and inhospi table treatment by Government of M. Kossuth ; also to sympathise with him, both in regard to the annoyance he has been subjected to by the authorities, and to the calumnious attacks on his character in the Times news paper." Lord Dudley Coutts Stuart, M.P., took the chair, and opened the proceedings by calling attention to the subject which has already become familiar to the public. The following resolution, upon the motion of Mr. Peter Graham, seconded by Mr. Nicholay, was then adopted :—" That this meeting has heard with alarm and indignation that the police of the metropolis, chiefly supported by local rates, are employed in disguise in the un-English character of spies upon the actions of political exiles under the protection of our laws, and the Secretary of State for the Home Department having as sumed to himself the odium which such employment carries with it, the meeting cannot refrain from express ing its opinion that her MAjesty's Government would act more in accordance with the wishes and feelings of the people at large, and would better consult its own dignity by refraining to be at the service of continental despotism." Sir Joshua Walmsley, M.P.,, and others having addressed the meeting denouncing the spy sys tem as calculated to demoralise and degrade the country, an address to the Queen and a petition to the House of Commons were severally agreed to, and the proceedings terminated. {ADVERTISEMENT.) —EPSOM AND ASCOT RACES.- 9, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly observe, opposite the York Hotel.

THE CAMP AT CHOBEAM. The camp now in progress of formation on Chobham common promises to be the great feature of the present season. The novelty in England of any great military display invariably attracts vast crowds of spectators, and this seems to have been anticipated by the authorities in their selection of Chobham-common as the scene of the encampment. The ground for several miles is nicely undulated, the alternation of hill and valley being very gradual, affording at the same time excellent opportunity for the practice of military evolutions, and the best means of observation for spectators. Chobham, more over, is distant nearly four miles from Chertsey, the nearest railway station, and is thus sufficiently removed beyond the possibility of inconvenience from a rush of the London mob by excursion trains on a review day, The London. and South-Western Railway, wisely anti cipating a large accession to their Woking and Chertsey traffic during the next three months, have already made arrangements of the most complete character for the ac commodation of the public. The number of ordinary trains will be increased, and a special express service will be laid on for the convenience of the officers of the camp and their friends, the hours of departure being so arranged as to allow of travelling to and fro between London and Chertsey at nearly all period of the 24 hours. The preparations for the encampment are rapidly pro ceeding, although the progress yet made is not very per ceptible to the spectator. Standing upon the ridge of high ground running across the centre of the common the eye clearly takes in the line of the field, Which is already marked out by lofty poles inserted in the ground, showing the position of the various regiments. The cavalry will occupy the extreme right of the field, extending from the fir plantation in the valley looking towards Virginia Water to the summit of the first ridge of high ground. The Sappers and Miners will occupy a position next to the cavalry, and they are to be followed by the troops of the Household Brigade, who will occupy the centre. The other foot regiments will come next, and the Rifle Brigade and the Royal Artillery are to form the extreme right, stretching out to Bagshot heights, the old line of encampment, which, more than half a century since, was the scene of a great military display, brought toge ther at the commencement of the French revolutionary w ar. These heights are now partially under cultivation, but the extreme right will just touch upon the old ground, and it is a singular fact that some remains of the huts built by the soldiers in 1798 still exist and will come within the trenches of the present encampment. The troops will be arranged in the form of a half circle or crescent, and the lines will probably exceed three miles in length. Only the south-western portion of the common will be occupied, the opposite side being very damp, and, from its marshy character, unsuited to military operations. Indeed, the locality altogether is damp, so much so that an order has been issued by the Commander-in-Chief granting permission for the troops to sleep on palliasses instead of upon the ground as usual, and some anxiety has been expressed as to the effect the marshy soil may have upon the health of the valuable horses belonging to the Household Cavalry. The irregularity of the surface and the broken character of the ground will render the evolutions of the troops, especially the cavalry, difficult, if not dangerous ; but, as the object of the camp is to improve and perfect the military education of the soldiers rather than to afford them a summer's holyday, this circumstance has not been considered objectionable at the Horse Guards. It has already been stated that Lieutenant-General Lord Seaton, G.C.8., G.C.M., G.C.H., an officer of great distinction, is to have the command of the camp. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge will com mand the cavalry. In order to be within reach at any moment both officers have secured residences in the im mediate vicinity. His Royal Highness has taken Bag shot-park, for many years the favourite residence of his illustrious uncle, the late Duke of Glocester, and Lord Seaton has agreed to occupy during the term Higliain lodge, the villa residence of Lord Vaux, of Harrowden. Bagshot-park is about four miles distant from the camp. Higham-lodge is almost on the field. The preparations for the encampment have been en trusted to Colonel Edward Vicars, an officer of distinc tion in the Engineers, who is already actively engaged on the spot. The commissariat will be under the con trol of Commissary-General Sir Randolph Routh, K. C. B. _ _ - ..........._. The following is a correct list of the various regi ments and battalions forming the camp ;—Cavalry.— The Ist Regiment of Life Guards, under the command of Colonel John Hall, from Windsor ; the 6th Regiment of Dragoon Guards (Carabineers), under the command of Colonel H. R. Jones ; the 13th Light Dragoons, under the command. of Leutenant-Colonel C. 1 4 .1". Do herty, from Hounslow ; and the 17th Regiment of Light Dragoons (Lancers), under the command of Colonel J. Lawrenson, from Canterbury. Infantry.—The Ist battalion of the Grenadier Guards, under the command of Colonel Thornton ; the let battalion of the Fusilier Guards, under the command of Colonel Knollys ; the Ist battalion of the Coldstream Guards, under the com mand of Colonel Bentinck ; the Royal Engineers (Sappers and Miners) ; the Rifle Brigade ; several bat teries of the Royal Artillery ; the 38th Regiment (Ist Staffordshire), under the command of Colonel Sir John Campbell ; the 42d Royal Highland Regiment, under Colonel Cameron ; the 50th Regiment, (the Queen's Own), under Colonel Sidley ; the 93d I Highlanders, under the command of Colonel Rothe ; and the 95th Regiment (the Derbyshire), under the command of Colonel Walter. The infantry will be di vided into three brigades, the first composed of the three battalions of Foot Guards ; the second of the 38th Regi ment, tie 5,9 th Regiment, and the 95th Regiment ; and the third of the 42d and 93d Highlanders and the Rifle Corps. The muster-roll of the whole camp will amount to something jail than 10,000 men. It is intended that, after the first battalions of the Household regiments have served for a certain period, their places shall be supplied by the remaining battalions of their respective corps, Bo as to give every soldier the same opportunity of doing duty in the field. This duty, as at present understood, will not be very light. No day will pass without some active service, and, in addi tion to frequent reviews and sham fights, there will be occasional " night surprises," involving a muster of the whole camp in the shortest possible space of time. The formation of pontoon bridges over the lake at Virginia Water will be among the exercises engaged in by the troops. The force employed under Colonel Vicars at the pre sent moment in carrying out the preparations for the encampment is not large. It consists only of 100 Sap pers and Miners from Chatham, and about the same number of the 95th Regiment, with 22 picked men of' Scots Fusilier Guards, under Sergeant Knox. The lat ter are employed in marking out the position of the vari ous regiments. The principal work upon which the Sappers and the men of the 95th Regiment are now engaged is the erection of camp stables for 1,200 horses. This will be a heavy work, as, with a view to protect the animals as much as possible, Lord Seaton has insisted that a substantial sort of building should be erected. A specimen stable was completed a few days since, His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge met Lord Seaton on the ground on Monday for thepurpose of deciding upon its eligibility. Each stable occupies a space of about 20 feet by 12 feet, and is estimated to afford accommodation for eight horses standing head to head. The lower por tion of the walls are of turf, supported by stakes, and the upper portion consists of a trellis work of boughs of Scotch fir closely intertwined, so as to keep out the cold. The roof is of canvas, supported on four corner and two central pine staves. There are two entrances—one at each end, and it is not intended to affix any doors. In order to accustom the horses as much as possible to the change, the doors and windows of the stables belonging to the cavalry regiments forming the camp are now left open day and night. The specimen stable was approved both by Lord Seaton and the Duke of Cambridge, and the erection of the necessary number is now proceeding. The other principal work has been the sinking of wells, of which no less than 10 have beef '. completed in various parts of the common. The water has generally been found to be pretty good, but an unexpected difficulty has arisen which will delay the completion of the necessary number of wells for some short period. The subsoil being of a sandy nature, it is absolutely necessary to Shore up the sides of the well as the men dig. In this barren dis trict there is scarcely any other timber than fir procur able ; of that there is plenty on Government ground, and the well diggers used it freely in shoring up their work until it was discovered that the turpentine in the green wood gave a brackish and very disagreeable taste to the water. Well sinking was then stopped, and it will not be resumed until a supply of beech timber is ob tained. The erection of stables for the cavalry, and the completion of means for obtaining an adequate supply of water, are the only important works to be done before the camp is formed: Each regiment will bring its own tents ; and even the Household Brigade will, it is ex pected, be able to pitch them with very little instruction from the Sappers, The camp will be formed on the 14th of June. Orders have been issued for all the troops engaged to be upon the ground on that day, and it is understood that a grand review of the whole force will follow immediately. A series of magnificent festivities are spoken of as likely to take place during July and August. The officers of the Household Brigade have determined upon keeping up the brilliant character of their mess. Messrs. Gunter have been applied to . on the subject, and, whether the details be carried out by that firm or by any other, one thing is certain, that the crack corps will on every suit able occasion dispense a gorgeous hospitality to their brother officers and all who may be disposed to visit them on the field. An embargo has been laid upon Mr. Benjamin Edginton's splendid stock of marquees, and by the aid of this gentleman's ingenuity and vast resources the inhospitable character of Chobham-common will be materially alleviated. There are scarcely any public-houses in the neighbour hood, and whatever requirements arise on the part of the public must be satisfied under marquees. With this view several have already been engaged by speculators ; one gentleman has taken a large farm-house, with the intention of converting it into a tavern. The old parish workhouse of Chobham is to be made a military hospital. It has been occupied by a farmer for some years, and he has been paid out. It stands in a very convenient position in the rear of the camp. It has been stated that the commissariat will be fur nished under the direction of Commissariat-General Sir Randolph Routh. Mr. Crookshank, deputy-assistant commissary-general, has been at Chertsey for some days superintending the contracts which Sir Randolph Routh, in the first instance, offered to the tradesmen in the dis trict. The inhabitants of Chertsey, however, do not appear to have availed themselves of the advantages to be anticipated. It was generally believed that Mr. La coste, a banker and miller in the town, would have undertaken to furnish the required quantity, of flour-50 sacks per day, but it appears he has not done so, and the only person whose energies have been called forth by the occasion is "mine host" of the "Swan," who intends laying on a number of omnibuses and well-ap- pointed flys to traverse the pretty rural drive of four miles between Chobham-common and the Chertsey rail way station. The contract for bread and flour has been taken by:Mr. John Gillett, of Silver-street, Bloomsbury, who has also undertaken to furnish 600 sacks of corn, 80 loads of hay, and 60 loads of Straw, weekly, for the cavalry horses. The contract for the supply of 6,0001 b. of fresh meat daily has been taken by Messrs. Charles Baker and Son, of Newgate-market. THE CIVIL WAR IN CHINA. PROCLAMATIONS OF THE REBELS. (From the Overland China Mail.) " Yang, entitled the Eastern Kind, and General in- Chief, with Seaou, entitled Western King, also General in-Chief of T'hae-ping, by Divine appointment Emperor of Theenkwo, the celestial dynasty, unitedly issue this proclamation, to announce that they have received the commands of Heaven to slaughter the imps and save the people. According to the Old 'Testament, the Great God (Shang-te), our Heavenly Father, in six days created the heavens and earth, the land and sea, men And things. The Great God is a spiritual Father, a ghostly Father, omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipre sent.; all nations under heaven are acquainted with His great power. In tracing up the records of bygone ages, we find that since the time of the creation of the world the Great God has frequently manifested His displeasure, and how can it be that you people of the world are still ignorant of it ? The Great God in the first instance dis played His anger and sent down a great rain, during forty days and forty nights, by which means the Flood was produced. "on a second occasion, the Great God manifested His displeasure, and came down to save Israel out of the land of Egypt. On a third occasion He displayed his awful majesty, when the Saviour of the world, the Lord Jesus, became incarnate in the land of Judea, and suffered for the redemption of mankind. In later ages He has again manifested His indignation, and the Ting yew year (A.D. 1837) the Great God sent a celestial mes senger, who was commissioned by the Lord of Heaven, when He ascended on high, to put to death the fiendish bands. Again He has sent the Celestial King to take the lead of the empire and save the people 2 • from the Mow-shin to the Si n h ae year ( A . D . 1848-51) the Great God lias compa,ssionated the calamities of the people, who have been entangled in the meshes of the devil's net ; on the 3d moon of the latter year the exalted Lord and great Emperor appeared ; and in the 9th moon, Jesus, the Saviour of the world, man if es t e d Hi mse lf, exerting innumerable acts of power, and slaughtering a great number of impish fiends, in several pitched battles ; for how can impish fiends expect to resist the Majesty of Heaven ? And how, we would ask, can the great God failto be displeased with men for worshipping corrupt spirits, and performing corrupt actions, by which means they grievously ofend against the commands of Heaven ? Why do not you inhabitants of the world awake ? Having been born in the present day, when you are permitted to witness the glory of God, how for tunate may you esteem yourselves. Happening upon such a time as this, when you experience the great tran quillity of the days of Heaven, it is time for you to awake and arouse. Those who comply with the will of Heaven will be preserved, - and those who disobey the celestial dictatei will be destroyed. At the present time this Tartar fiend, Hee-fung, originally a Manchow slave, is the perpetual enemy of our Chinese race ; moreover, he has induced men to •assume the form of fiends, to wor ship the corrupt, while they disobey the true Spirit, and thereby rebel' against the Great God, on which account Heaven will not endure, and men are determined to destroy him. Alas ! you assemblage of valiant men, you do not seem to know, that every tree has its roots and every stream its fountain ; while you appear willing to in vert the order of things; coveting the smallest advantage, you turn round and serve your foes, and having been en tangled in the machinations of the evil one, you ungrate fully rebel against your true Lord. You do not seem to remember that you are the virtuous scholars of the Middle Kingdom, and honest subjects of the celestial dynasty ; and thus you easily bend your steps in the road to ruin, without compassionating your ownselves. Moreover, you valiant men are many of you adherents of the Triad Society, and have entered into a bloody compact that you will exert your united strength and talents to exter minate the Tartar dynasty. Whoever heard of men joining in a solemn covenant, and then turning their backs upon their foes. Now, throughout the different provinces there must be a variety of determined men, numbers of famous scholars, and of valiant heroes not a few ; we desire, therefore, that you may seve rally elevate the lofty standard, and announce that you are determined not to live under the same heaven with the Tartars, while you earn for your selves some merit in the service of our new king. This is what we, his generals, most fervently desire. Our army, wishing to carry out the virtuous feelings with which the Great God loves to foster human life, and re ceives men into His compassionate embrace, has set forward on its march of benevolence, embracing all in its charitable folds. At the same time we lead forward our generals and troops, carrying to the utmost our fidelity in recompensing our country, in which we can not refrain from displaying the saute spirit to the end. These our views are now communicated to you all. You ought to know, that since Heaven has sent forth the true sovereign to rule over the people, it is yours to aid the monarch in establishing his dominion. Although the devilish fiends should amount to millions, and their artful schemes to thousands, yet how could they with stand Heaven ? To kill without warning would not be agreeable to our feelings, and to sit still without saving the people is not what a benevolent person would do. A special proclamation." " Hung, Captain-General of the Army, having entire superintendence of military affairs, and aiding in the advancement of the T'hae-ping, or Great Pacificating Dynasty, in obedience to the will of Heaven, issues this important and triumphant proclamation, to announce that he has punished the oppressor and saved the people. " It appears that, throughout the empire, rapacious officers are worse than violent robbers, and the cor rupt mandarins of the public offices are no better than wolves and tigers, all originating in the vicious and sottish monarch at the head of affairs, who drives honest people to a distance, and admits to his pre sence the most worthless of mankind, selling offices, and disposing of preferments, while he represses men of virtuous talent, so that the spirit of avarice is daily inflamed, and high and low are contending together for gain ; the rich and great are abandoned to vice without control, whilst the poor and miserable have none to re dress their wrongs, the very recital of which exasperates one's feelings, and makes one's hair to stand on end. To refer to the case of the land revenue in particular, it appears that of late years the exactions have been in creased many fold, while the taxes due up to the 30th year of the last king's reign were at one time said to be remitted, and then again exacted, until the re sources of the people are exhausted, and their miseries grown to excess. When our benevolent men and vir tuous scholars contemplate these things, their minds are deeply wounded, and they cannot restrain them selves from rooting out these plundering officers and wolfish mandarins of each prefecture and district, in order to save the people from the flames and floods in which they are now involved. At the present moment our grand army is assembled like clouds, the province of Kwang-se has been settled, and Chang-sha (the capital of Hoo-nan) tranquillised; and being now about to proceed towards the region of Kwang-se, we deem it necessary to announce to the people that they need not be alarmed ; while agriculturists, mechanics, merchants, and traders may each peacefully pursue their oc cupations. It is ne cessar y, h owever , th at the rich should have in readiness stores of provisions to aid in the sustenance of our troops. Let each clearly report the amount of his contributions to this object, an d we will furnish him with receipts, as security that hereafter the money shall be all repaid. Should there;be any bold and strong men, or wise counsellors among you, let them with one heart and effort aid us in our great de sign ; and when tranquillity is restored, we will have them promoted and rewarded according to their merit. All the officers of prefectures and districts who resist us shall be beheaded ; but those who are ready to comply with our requisitions must henceforth send in to us their seals of office, and then they may retire to their native villages ; with regard to the rabble of wolfish policemen, we shall, as soon as we succeed, hang up their heads as a warning to all. Being now apprehensive l es t l oca l banditti should take occasion from our movements to breed disturbances, we wish you people clearly to report the same, and we will immediately exterminate them. If any of the citizens or villagers dare to assist the ma rauding mandarins in their, tyranny, and resist our troops and adherents, no matter whether they reside in great or small places, we will sweep them from the face of the earth. Be careful. Do not oppose. A spec i a l proclamation." " Yang-seu-ts'hing, especially appointed G enera l o f the Grand Army, en gaged in sweeping away the Tar tars and establishing the new dynasty, issues this second proclamation : _ "I, the General, in obedience to the Royal commands have put in motion the troops for the punishment of the oppressor, and in everyplace to which I have come the enemy at the first report have dispersed like scattered rubbish ' • as soon as a city has been captured I hav e put to death the rapacious mandarins and corrupt magistrates therein, but have not injured a single in dividual of the people, so that all of you may take care of your families and attend to your business without alarm and trepidation. I have already issued pro clamations to this effect, with which I presume you are acquainted. I have heard, however, that throughout the villages there are numbers of lawless vagabonds, who, pre vious to the arrival of our troops, take advantage of the disturbed state of the country to defile men's wives and daughters and plunder or burn the property of honest peo ple. I, the General, have already apprehended some of these, and decapitated about a score of them. Now, be cause their localities are somewhat removed from the provincial capital (Gnan-hwuy), these persons flatter themselves that I, the General, am not aware of their proceedings, which are very much to be detested. I have, therefore, sent a great officer, named Yuen, as a special messenger, with some hundreds of soldiers, to go through the villages, and, as soon as he finds any of these vagabonds, he is commissioned forthwith to decapi tate them,' while the honest inhabitants have nothing more to do than to stick up the word Shun,' (‘ Obe dient ') over their doors, and then they have no thing to fear. I would . wish to ask those of you who have given of your money and aided with your provisions (the former Government), in or der to purchase titles and official dignities, what is the glory of such distinctions ? and even those lite rary honours, which the Mantchou robbers have 'con ferred at the literary examinations, of what use are they ? I and my followers are all subjects of the Great Chinese empire, and students of the books handed down by the groat sages of antiquity ? How, then, could we stoop to receive rank and emolument from these Mwan-e, Mantchou barbarians. Do you, therefore, each one throw away the diplomas which you have received, and deceive yourselves no longer with them. As soon as I have taken Nankin, I will consult about arrange ments for the literary examinations, and, after having weighed the merits of the respective candidates, I will select the most worthy scholars, and settle the degrees of literary rank to which they are entitled. With regard to the temples and monasteries, which belong to the priests of Buddha and Taou, together with the property possessed by the brothels and gambling-houses it is much better that it should be distributed among the poor people of the villages. At present we are seizing the priests of Buddha and Taou throughout the country and putting them to death, and we are inquiring into those who have been foremost in the building and repair of the Buddhist temples, that we may have them appre-. hended likewise. When I, the General, have led for ward my troops to the destruction of the Mantchous, I will deliberate further about the examinations, in which everything shall be re-arranged according to the original customs of the Chinese. Should any disobey our in junctions, as soon as our grand army arrives we will not leave them a dog or a fowl remaining. A special pro clamation. " Copied at Ning-kwo-foo (lat, 31 deg. 2 min.

Yesterday the following desperate suicide was perpetrated by Samuel Richards, aged 52, residing in Somers Town, It appears the de ceased, who was rather respectably connected, led a wild rollicking, dissipated life, frequently indulging heavily in drink ; and that upon recovering from his fits of intem perance, he would become melancholy and depressed, as if from remorse. His dissipated habits so reduced him from affluence, that he became a pensioner on his friends' charity. About half-past ten yesterday morning he went to the water-closet out of the house where he resided, where, having remained an unusual length of time,his landlord went to ascertain what detained him, when he found the unfortunate man lying dead on the floor, amidst a pool of blood, having nearly severed Ms head from the body with an office knife, which, upon the removal of the body, was discovered underneath. So frightful wa s th e gash, that death must have been, in stantaneous. The b o d y was removed to the dead-house to await an inquest, FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE of YESTERDAY. FOREIGN-OFFICE, MAY 20.

ELECTRICITY OF THE BODY.—The New York Tribune says that anybody may light 'gas with the tip of his finger. We are all peripatetic lucifer-matches if we did but know it. " Let a person in their shoes or slippers walk briskly over a woollen carpet, scuffling his feet thereon ; or stand upon a chair with its legs in four tumblers to insulate it, and be there rubbed up and down on the body a few times with a muff by another person, and he will light his gas by simply touching his finger to the tube. It is only necessary to take the precaution not to touch anything or be touched by any body during the trial of the experiment. The stock of electricity acquired by the process we have described is discharged by contact with another object. A second person must turn on the gas while the other fires it. The writer has lighted it in this way, and seen it done by children not half a dozen years old." IBER. COUNTRY MARKET 3. LIVERPOOL—MAY 24.
