coloured picture drawn by Sir J. Pakington, there was, he he maintained, no evidence that the people of India had not a fair amount of salt. Upon this question Parliament should legislate not for England, but for India, or rather the Government should legislate in India ; the importation ,a British salt. had already thrown out of employment many of the Molungees, or hereditary salt-producers in Bengal. The duty upon salt, which was not felt as op pressive, had been reduced 25 per cent.; but the object of Sir J. Pakington was_,to introduce an excise system into India, which would case great distress among the pro ducers, and augment the charge of the preventive service. Thrsailf moliefoly; as it was ferule& 'which was no 'longer a monopoly of sale; was only a mode of collecting a re venue which could nob bee ammuted fox' any other tax. Mr. J. G. PHILLIMOLIE assailed Sir C. Wood for his retrograde policy and. his advocacy of what it was mere quibbling to say was not a monopoly. In a vehement speech he denounced the conduct of the company on this question, and urged the Government, even if deaf to the cries of India, to listen to the voice of our own manufac- turcrs. Sir ne HOGG admitted that there was just ground of • complaint prior to 1836, before which the company had a monopoly both of production and of sale, by which foreign salt was practically excluded. He contended that, under the circumstances of the native, the twelve pounds which had been spoken of was a fair average, because there were a variety of other condiments and spices which the inhabi tants of India could obtain at the lowest possible price. He stated that the duty had been reduced, and a further reduction would take place when circumstances allowed. Declaring that trade in salt was entirely free, he opposed the amendment of Sir J. Pakington. Mr. T. EGERTON supported the amendment. Sir H. _MADDOCK opposed it on the ground of his ob jeetion to the species of interference contemplated. Mr. ADDERLEY believed with Napoleon, that if "England undertook the internal government of India, that country would be lost to us." Had this been a mere resolution on the subject, he should however, have sup ported it. Arr. HUME was desirous to see the salt monopoly abolished, believing that it operated unfavourably for the health of the natives, and he also wished to see the trading character of the Company at an end. Mr. D. SEYMOUR supporte&the amendment. Mr. LOWE objected to the form of the clause, which recited the Company's act, and said that if the latter was sufficient, the clause was useless . , and if not, it was useless to recite it. He admitted that the Company had a monopoly, but not one to which an odious sense attached. It was only a restriction, necessitated because the company had to raise a Certain revenue. The company gained no thing by the restriction, but stood impartial between the importer, the manufacturer, and the consumer, and had no interest in what had been assailed with so many hard names. Sir J. Pakington did not propose to move one of the burdens of the people of India, and if the clause were carried, matters would remain as they were , excep t that the house would have intruded into matters of which they had no knowledge, on' which they were incompetent to judge, and on which great Indian autho rities differed. Sie urged upon Sir J. Pakington that the proposed clause would not serve the interests of the. British manufacturers. Mr. JOHN APGREGOR regretted exceedingly to hear the speech of his hon. friend the member for Kiddermin ster, with regard to the great economical principles of the salt duties. (Divide.) • Bat as he conceived the amend ment a dangerous experiment, he would vote against it— (ironical altogether, however, from the financial principles of the hon., member who had just sat down. Mr. BLACKETT had never heard of a sub j ect so full of anoma lies as the Indian question, but it wa s long before he could have imagined such an anomaly as hearing a Free trade Minister standing up for the interests of the salt-pro ducers of Bengal—(Opposition cheers)—and giving an ex planation of the word " monopoly," which - would, he trusted, make the hon. memberrepent ever having applied the term to the corn laws. (Hear, hear.) It was • twenty years - ago since Mr. Wilbraham brought forward a pro position against the Indian salt-tax, and in the debate whieh ensued, Mr. C. Grant, afterwards Lord Glenelg, said he did not defend it. No one could deny the expe diency of removing it, and the Government thought it should be got rid of as soon as possible. Mr. Cutler Fer gusson, the advocate the East . India Company, could only defend it by saying the prejudices of the Indians were so poWerful as to offer a complete bar to the substi tution of any other tax ; and on the assurance that the Government would consider the alteration of the tax as soon as • possible Mr-Wilbraham'e amendment was with drawn. The Parliament ponsented to leave the abolition of the tax to the discretionary power of the local authori ties in India • but now that they heard arguments Lord Glenulg woad:II - lave been ashamed to use, he trusted they would not consent once more to leave the question in such hands. Lord J. RIMSELL said, that before the house divided he wished to say a few words with respect to what appeared to him to be the extraordinary nature of the step recom mended by the right hon. baronet the member for Droit wich ; and, first, let him remark that though his speech had been entirely against the tax on salt—and if he had pro posed to abolish the salt tax altogether; he might have been disposed to feel his argument and vote for the repeal of the tax—the right hon. gentleman, after a long speech against the vicious and oppressive nature of the salt tax, proposed to do what ? To leave it as the Indian Govern ment thought fit, and only to interfere with the mode of collection, and say • ite should no longer be raised in the present manner, but by a system of Excise. Nov, there, was, this important point to be considered— that, supposing, the house should agree with the motion of the right hon. gentleman, it would by no means get rid of the salt-tax, which had been called a monopoly, but which he thought his hon. Mend the member for Kidderminster had proved to be no monopoly as a manu facture at all ; but the Indian Government, in the ex ercise of its discretion, and presided over by a noble lord who was certainly as conversant, perhaps, with matters of trade and commerce as any one who ever went to India, might think the best mode of raising the revenue was partly by a salt tax, and that the best mode of getting that tax waa by the manufacture in Bengal being in the bands of the Government. He had heard it said that Parliament was responsible for any deficiency which might occur in the revenues of India, but certainly he had never subscribed to that doctrine, and thought it entirely un founded. He thought the revenues of the holders of East India Stock arose out of the territorial produce of India, and that they had no right to come to Parliament in case of a deficiency. But the case would be totally altered if the house chose to vote with the right hon. gentleman. If they said there should be no longer a revenue of 2,000,0001. raised in the manner which the Government of India, in its discretion, added by the most able men, thought fit, how could they tell what would be the consequence ? They knew the salt tax was a tax which occasioned a great deal of discussion, that it was subject to much evasion, and was oppressive to the inhabitants of the country. Suppose there was 1,000,0001. wanting in the revenue of India, who would be responsible for the deficiency ? Would it be the Indian Government? Weald they be bound to lay on a new tax to supply the deficiency which the vote of the House of Commons bad occasioned ? No ; certainly not. They could say, for the first time, with justice, "The deficiency has been cceasioned by Parliament. Don't let us lay on a new tax which may be oppressive to the people of India, and let us ask the house, which has alone occasioned it, also to supply the deficiency." He hoped, therefore, that the house, before they supported the proposition of the right hon. gentleman—before they in dulged his constituents with the prospeat of • better days, would consider that as this was a subject which affected India, it would be far better that they should not set the example of regulating the finances of India by their own information, which after all must be very imperfect, but leave that great and important subject in the hands of the Government of India, as it had hitherto been. (Hear, bear.) Mr. DISRAELI denied that there was any such ineonsis tency as the noble lord seemed to suppose between the speech and the emotion of the right hon. gentleman the member for Droitwich. It was quite true that the motion of his right hon. friend was not for the repeal of the salt-tax, but for an alteration of the mode of levying it, and it was equally true that in his speech ho did not conceal from the house that his intention was to promote the ultimate re duction, if not the repeal, of the tax. But the first step was to destroy the monopoly, and when the monopoly was destroyed he defied them to raise the present excessive tax ; so that the observations of the noble lord had not at all an swered the position which had been taken up by his right hon. friend. lie (Mr. Disraeli) could not agree with the noble lord as to the difference between the revenues of England and the revenues of India. The noble lord the leader of the House of Commons had told them that he recognised no identity between those two re venues. Was that the opinion of those colleagues of the noble lord who prided themselves on being the disciples of Sir R. Peel? (Hoar, hear.) Was that the opinion of Sir R. Peel ? All of them had read, and many of them had heard the opinion of that eminent personage - that great authority on financial subjects—that he could not for a moment acknowledge that there was any difference between the revenues of England and the re venues of India ; and it would be remembered, too, that it was the state in which the finances of India were placed which was put f orwar d as one o f th e particular arguments in favour of th e i mposition of the property and income tax. (Hear, hear.) lie (Mr. Disraeli) asked the house whether any ono could suppose that the embarrassment of our Indian finances must not ultimately in its con sequences devolve upon the people of this country? for he must say that until the noble lord rose on this occasion, and apparently for the sole purpose of announcing his want of aweement with that financial doctrine, he had never heard any person bt authority profess an opposite opinion. (Hear, hear.) He repeat e d th at he dielnotagree with the noble lord in that opinion. He was sure that if there w as e mbarrassment inour an Indian finances ares, that embarrassme n t m ust ultimately be examinedOpiniondealt with by England. But he could not allow any one w a y or the other, on such a subject, at ail to interfere with the conclusion which they ought to arrive at with respect to the particular topic before them. They were call e d on now to consider what should be the government of India, for a considerable s pace of time—probably for 20 years, f l r t, (,rahadthe decision which they had previously arrived at. been laid before them that the fiscal arrangemielaitenclin, question was, in the opinion of his right hon. t, and was in ens' attended ilsgnLe.rnralletile right hon. friend had laidth e iwnihtabitinatinteall of before them all the circumstances and causes which had induced him to think to adopt that opinion, and he Disraeli) must say that he had yet heard nothing fromTh r y . one which had at all met the case which his ri hon. friend had plac ed before them. Well, if it ghee wee true that the salt monopoly—let them call it, if theyliked, by another elaureS and see if it smelt sweeter—if it was true that it produced consequen ces so injurious to the great body of the population of India, he wanted to know how the evil was to be dealt with except by the action of the British Parliament ; and when a more' fitting opportunity could occur for Parliament to consider remedial moans in this respect than tho one which had now offered itself? That was the int: which they had to consider. Here was an evil, the immensity of which could not well be de scribed. How was it to be encountered ? They were told that they must not interfere with the fiscal details of India —that they should leave them to the Court of Directors, and to the Governor-General. But the house had to consider whether the Court of Directors, or our own Viceroys who were sent to India, were inclined, or power ful enough, to encounter this grievance, and to combat with the evil consequences which were occasioned. If thess persons neglected to do so, or if they were powerless to do so, was it the duty of that house to step in and fulfil that which these persons had omitted to accomplish ? and if it was their duty, was there any opportunity that could offer better than the present for (loft it That was the g question, and no noble l or d or r i g h t hon. gentleman tler t ua n who had yet risen had attempted to me e t th atw e re al point under discussion.

(A laugh.) The clause was then put and negatived., Mr. WIGRAM moved the following clauses " No law or regulation made by the Governor-General in Council under the powers of the statute of 3d and 4th of William IV., c. 85, s. 43, shall be invalid by reason only that the same affects any. prerogative of -the .

When they came to consider that they required the service of a horse and man for however little distance they went, he was sure they must allow that 6d was too little. Mr. GROGAN said that, if he understood the clause rightly, it was to allow cabs, which were only licensed to carry two, to break the law by carrying more, and get ad ditional fare for it. He had no objection to the' cabs car rying more than two, but he did - not like to see it put in the light of an infraction of the law. Mr. LOWE pointed out that to carry two meant that they were not to be compelled to carry more than two, and not that they were to be limited to carrying two only. Mr. FREWEN thought that they were knocking under to the great proprietors by amending the act in this man ner. It was notorious that it was not the men who owned one or two cabs who had organised and were carrying on this strike, but the large cab proprietors--(Hear)—and it would be far better for the house to adjourn the conside ration of this question for a few days, and when the cab proprietors came to their senses no doubt the house would entertain any reasonable proposal for the relief of any real grievance under which they might be suffering. Captain MAGAN said, that considering the manner in which the hon. member for North Warwickshire had been treated by a cabman last year, it certainly was very disin terested of him to advocate their cause with such, spirit. ( A. laugh.) It was the duty of that house to protect the " All fines and penalties incurred by the sentence or or der of any court of justice within the territories under the government of the East India Company, and all forfeitures for crimes of any real or personal estate within the said territories, and all real and personal estate within the said territories escheating or lapsing for want of an heir or successor, and all property within the said territories devolving as bona racantia for want of a rightful owner, shall, as part of the revenues of India, belong to the East India Company, in trust for her Majesty, for the service of the Government of India. Provided also, that the Go vernor-General in Council, and any other person or per sons who may be authorised by any act passed in that be half by the Governor-General in Council, shall have power (in cases Where the same may appear suitable and proper) to make any grant or disposition of any property so accru ing by forfeiture, escheat, or otherwise, to or in favour of any relative or connexion of the person from whom the same shall have accrued, or to or in favour of any other person or persons." Sir C. WOOD said he had no objection to the clauses. The clauses were then added to the bill. Sir H. MADDOCK moved the following clause : " Whereas the territories of British India are a portion of the dominions of the British Crown, and the native and European inhabitants thereof are her Majesty's subjects, the Government of the said territories as carried on in India, and the administration of justice therein, shall, from and after the passing of this act, be in the name of her Majesty, her heirs and successors, and all public acts of the Government of India shall be done and executed by the Governor-General in Council, in the name of her Ma pnblic against those men, and, as they held licences for the benefit of the public, ho would suggest that this would be a very fitting opportunity to insert some provision in the bill to prevent persons holding licences ever again re sorting to such a combination. (Hear.) Mr. B. CARTER suggested, that as there was a bill now before the house relating to the Dublin carriages, a provi sion in it which gave power to the police authorities, with the consent of the Record er , t o vary the fares according as circumstances might require, should be introduced into this bill, substituting the Under Secretary for the Recorder. Mr. F. SCULLY wished to know whether the additional 6d. for every person was to be for the whole distance, or only per mile. Mr. LOWE—For the whole distance. Mr. F. SCULLY—In that case there could be no objec tion to the clause. He thought the whole question ought to be considered with great cars, and he himself was pre pared with a clause which, be thought, would prevent the recurrence of the present deplorable state of things. Mr. O'BRIEN thought the cab proprietors ought to have followed the example of their fellows in Dublin, who re- I presented their case fairly and calmly to the authorities, and by that means succeeded in getting provisions intro- duced into the bill which met their wishes. (Hear.) Mr. C. HO WARD reminded the Government that this jesty, her heirs and successors." - Sir C. WOOD observed that, as the house was aware, this question had been raised and discussed in the com mittee—(hear, hear)—and, if the clause were agreed to, the bill would be absolute nonsense. (Hear, hear.) The clause was then negatived. Sir C. WOOD said he had given notice some time ago of his intention to bring up two clauses fixing the qualifica tion and salaries of the directors. Objections had been made'to the large money qualification now required, and he thought it very desirable that the qualification should be reduced. He considered, also, that it was most desirable that all the directors should possess the same qualification. He therefore proposed a clause reducing the qualification of elected directors from 2,000 g. to 1,0001., and enacting that all directors, whether elected or appointed, should have that qualification, and should be required to make a declaration that they were in possession of stock to such an amount. clause did not apply to that very useful class of carriage, the Hansom cabs. Mr. LOCKE thought, with the hon. member for North Warwickshire, that justice ought to be done in this case in dependent of the present state of things. (Hear, hear.) When the conduct of the D u bli n ca bmen was contrasted with that of the London cabmen, it must be remembered that the latter had never had an inquiry referred to them. He thought it would be much more consistent to leave the responsibility of arranging the matter in the hands of the Government, but he entertained a strong opinion that the scale of fares laid down in the bill was not remunerative. (Cries of "No," and " Hear.") He certainly thought that at least an inquiry into its justice should have been made before such a reduction was attempted. Lord D. STUART agreed with' ltese who thought the house ought to resist anything like a concession to clamour. He lamented very much the state of things out of doors, and chiefly fur the sake of the persons who had occasioned After a words from Mr. BLACKETT, the clause was agreed to. that state'of things, for there could be no doubt that the porsons engaged in the cab trade would be thosewhowould 1 SiiC __,e- of .iv OOD then proposed a clause, fixing the sala ries each of the chairman a nd deputy-chairman at 1,5001., an d trodu _ . tlae directors at 1,0001. a-year. He moved the in- ellen of the clause with the space for the amounts in blank, leaving The elansettoT s filled up in committee on the clause. een road, Mr. HAUFIEL having increase i n the salaries objected to it. He was opposed to any Of th e di rec t ors , as it was we ll un - deraoo(l that their emolumentt was really to be found in • the objectionable 9v s t em of patronage. Mr. IILACKET . T 3 concurred agn in the objection to the clause, and would vote the directors both by salary LT' He objected to paying • M. HUTCHINS and Mr. Wilt nag notice had been given of the amonnteom posed to be given to the directors. Mr. .IIIILNES thought hon. gentlemen e Plained that no of salary now pro .coln_ernitted an error in confounding patronage with salary, posing of patronage derived no pecuniary advanta ge ir die it. The patronage of which the Secretary to the Treafsruormy disposed was enormous, but would any one, for that reason,- say'he ought to have no salary ? * Mr. SPOONER said the question of the amount of salary must be consijered in committee. Mr. MANGLES protested against a pecuniary value being set ti,am the patronage, ‘liiieh the directors took a soleien oath before God nut to dispose of for a pecuniary consideration. The house then went into committee. On the proposal to till up the blank with the salary of 1,5001. per annum for the chairman of the Court of Di rectors, Mr. THORN - ELY - pressed, for the adjournment of the ciustiou, on the G - rouatl- that his hone friends around hila suffer the moat inconvenience from the strike. In taking such a course they had been ill-advised, but at the same time he could not help reminding hon. gentlemen that the pre sent difficulty, and the public annoyance experienced, had been brought upon the house by their own conduct. If the select committee asked for had been granted, all the details connected with the matter would have been properly examined, and the mistake would not have been made which had involved us in so much difficulty. Another time, in legislating, the house should remember the good old proverb, "The more haste, the less speed." (Hear.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought it was not desirable now to reopen the subject of sixpenny fares, and that it was much better either at once to decide on the subject before the house, or agree to postpone it for future consideration, rather than proceed with a discussion upon the general merits of the question. (Hear, hear, and cries of " Go on.") Mr. GROGAN feared the clause would give power to ' the drivers to convey and indefinite number of persons, and moved that the chairman do report progress and ask leave to sit again. Mr. LO WE was told that the clause was rightly worded, but, if it were not, it would be open to the house to recon sider the wording of the clause upon the report. . Mr. V. SCULLY considered that the matter involved a great constitution a l principle, not only as regarded the cabmen of L on d on but other classes of the community, and the idea ought ,not to be allowed to get abroad that if men turned out in this way they were to have their clamour listened to at once. (Rear, hear.) It was a principle which, if yielded to, must spread far and wide, and there was no telling where it might end. This strike was a sort of petty rebellion, and' tkit Gina meat p onie d t o think that the best way of putting it down was to yield to it. He suggested that this was an opportunity which might never happen again, .of carrying out a great principle, and of giving perfect free trade in cabs as well as everything else. Mr. J. MACGREGOR hoped the house would not be hasty in coming to a conclusion on this subject. Mr. HUTCHINS had been present at an interview be tween a deputation of cab proprietors and the Secretary to the Treasury, and could state that his hon. friend had done his utmost to arrive at an equitable conclusion as regarded all parties. It appeared, however, almost impossible to eatisfy the proprietors. He hoped the house would proceed to pass these clauses. Mr.WALPOLE suggested that they really ought not to divide. He felt the cab proprietors were very much in the wrong, but he could not conceal from himself that the house had been a little inadvertent. Let them put them selves right by adopting the two clauses proposed by the Government, and then all would go well. ' Mr. GROGAN did not wish to stand in the way of an arrangement, but the clause would not carry out the object in view. He certainly would oppose it in the interest of the public. Sir J. SHELLEY, as one who was present at the inter view of the cab proprietors with the right hon. gentleman, thought it right to state they were satisfied with the reso lutions so far as they went, but that nothing would com pletely satisfy them except a shilling for the first time. Mr. FREWEN recommended -that the clauses should be printed and brought up on the report. The CHAIRMAN put the question that the clause be read a second time, but Mr. GROGAN was so anxious to oppose it that he rose twice to divide before the chairman read it, amid some cries of " Order," and a voice, " Let it be read first tha you may learn what it means." The CHAIRMAN—Does the hon. member divide? Mr. GROGAN—Certainly. The committee divided— For the clause Against it Majority for the clause —79 On our return to the gallery, the chairman was reading the words of the next clause, that in every one-horse car riage only 6d. for each person above the number of two should be paid for each hiring. Mr. MACARTNEY really thought they were pursuing a very hasty and injudicious course in going on with the clauses at that hour. Let them adjourn the debate till 12 to-morrow (this day), and meantime the clauses could be printed for the use of members. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—The hon. member must be aware that other business is fixed for 12 o'clock to-day. Mr. MACARTNEY—It will only take ten minutes to settle the matter. (" Oh ! oh !") _The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—The course proposed is unnecessary, for the house will have an opportunity of considering the clauses when the report is brought up. Mr. MAGAN did not know whether the house would arrive at a sound decision or not, but certainly the hon. member for Antrim was not a very gibed judge of the point, for he had only just awoke from a very sound sleep. (Laughter.) The clause would not be very much for the 'benefit of the' cabmen, for if it had four persons to carry, instead of putting them into one cab he could distribute them in four cabs for the same price. (Laughter.) The clause was then ordered to stand part of the bill. Mr. LOWE said, he had another clause to propose, to the effect that the driver of a cab should be at liberty to charge ls. per mile for every mile or part of a mile, if re quired to drive beyond the circumference of a circle the radius of which should be four miles from Charing-cross, provided he was discharged beyond such circumference. Mr. FREWEN thought this clause required considera tion. Supposing a person took a cab from Charing-cross to the Tower Hamlets, it would be beyond the four miles ; and then, according to this clause, the person would be charged a shilling a-mile. This he considered to be ob jectiovable. 88 Sir D. NORREYS said, if they adopted the Post-office as the centre of the circle, as was at first proposed, they would include a large portion of Bow and the Isle of Dogs —(laughter)—and the more distant parts of Camberwell ; but they would exclude the new and populous district of Bayswater and that neighbourhood. He thought the change from the General Post•ofce was most judicious ; bat instead of Charing•cross he would suggest St. Clement's Church as the centre. Mr. PELLATT thought the distance should be three miles instead of four. Sir J. SHELLEY said, the reason that four miles were fixed on was that that radius would include all the princi pal railways, whereas, if three miles were adopted as she distance, almost every one of the railways would be ex chided. The clause was then agreed to. Mr. F. SCULLY said, that as the cab proprietors took out licences, and thereby entered into a contract with the public to convey passengers in their vehicles, they were bound to perform that contract, and ought not to be al lowed to withdraw their cabs without notice. He sug gested a proviso to that effect. Mr. LOWE objected to the clause being entered upon at that time. Mr. F. SCULLY said he would bring up the clause at a future stage. The house then resumed, and the bill was reported. On the order for resuming the adjourned debate on the resolution for allowing strangers to remain in the house during divisions, Mr. MUNTZ complained that the order for resuming the debate had been placed in such a position on the paper that it could scarcely be taken to-night. Mr. S. HERBERT said there was no objection on the part of the noble member for the city of London that the experiment should be tried. (Hear, hear.) The resolutions, moved by Mr. MuNn, were then agreed to. The Crime and Outrage (Ireland) Bill, the Customs Bill, and the Dublin Carriage Bill went through committee. The Turnpike Acts Continuance (Ireland) Bill was read a second time. The Public Works Act Amendment (Ireland) Advances Bill went through committee. The Committee on the Naval Coast Volunteers Bill was fixed for next Monday, at 12 o'clock. The house then adjourned, at 5 minutes past 3 o'clock. PORT OF PLYMOUTIY REGATTA. PLYMOUTH, JULY 27. The annual town regatta, which was postponed from last week in consequence of the extremely unfavourable state of the weather, came off yesterday afternoon, but under scarcely less favourable circumstances. A thick, hazy tttmosphere prevailed, and the view to the specta tors was limited for a very short distance. - A goodly number of persons collected on the Hoe, but by no means to the extent as is commonly witnessed on such occasions. The committee were on board a vessel moored off the Hoe for the purpose of conducting the general arrangements, in which they were assisted by Mr. Lomer, the late secretary of the Royal Southern Yacht Club. The programme of the amusements set forth numerous and valuable 'prizes for competition, amongst which was a handsome piece of plate pre sented by Charles John Mare, Esq. ; a piece of plate, value 201., presented by J. R. Newcombe, Esq., the le ssee of the Theatre Royal ; and nine or ten other prizes. _ The first race for the day was for A PIECE of PLATE, value 501., presented by Charles John Mare, Esq., for yachts above 15 tons. The fol lowing yachts were entered : Yachts. Tons. Blue Bell 3O Captain Roebuck. Annie. l6 Samuel Triscott, Esq. Fawn -28 H. Filhs, Esq. A time rake. The course was through the eastern channel of the Breakwater, round a mark vessel moored off the Shagstone, thence to another mark ves sel moored off Penlee Point, leaving both on the star board hand, returning through the western channel, rounding the buoy off the Cobbler, leaving it on the port hand, and thence round the committee-vessel, which was also to be left on the port hand. Twice round the course. The Fawn did not appear at the start, which took place at lh. 30m., the two yachts keeping well together until they got on the outside of the Breakwater, when the Blue Bell obtained the lead, and kept it for the rest of the round, which was performed as under : Blue Bell Annie H. M. B. . 3 36 50 ▪ 3 45 45 In consequence of the heavy lop of sea outside the Breakwater, and the strong south-westerly wind blowing at the time, the Annie received so much damage that on completing the first round she sailed into the harbour, struck her flag, and gave up all further share in the con test. As a matter of form, the Blue Bell proceeded over the course alone, and the second round was thus concluded : Blue Bell.. H. 3i. 8. 5 43 45 Captain Roebuck was then declared to be the winner of this valuable prize, which was of magnificent work manship, from the manufactory of Mr. Cave , of George street, Plymouth. It consisted of a richly-chased vase, the root and trunk of the oak-tree forming the foot, with the foliage beautifully encircling the body, the handles formed of two full-length figures of sailors standing on its branches, in the act of cheering. The whole sur mounted by a cluster of acorns and leaves. The next was a PIECE of PLATE presented by J. R. Newcombe, Esq., lessee of the Theatre Royal, for yachts under 15 tons. The following yachts started at 3h. 33m. : Yachts. Tons. Pixie Ida lO Messrs. Hocking. A time race. The course the same as in the last race, but only once round. The race was very well contested, but the Pixie proved herself by far the best sea-going vessel in the heavy sea outside the Breakwater, the race terminating asunder : Pixie Ida H. M. S. 5 38 5 5 54 40 Although the Pixie had to allow the Ida 2 min. 30 secs. for difference of tonnage, yet she was declared the winner by time by 14 min. 5 secs. This prize, a hand some silver claret-jug, ornamented with richly-chased vine-leaves and grapes, the manufacture of Mr. Page, of George-street, Plymouth, was afterwards presented to Mr. Moore. There were a great number of other minor prizes con tended for by pleasure-boats, ordinary boats belonging to ships in her Majesty's service, besides rowing matches for merchants' gigs, four-oared gigs, two-oared skiffs, gig and punt matches, and a variety of other amusements that appeared to give general satisfaction. The Countess of Mount Edgcumbe patronised the regatta by cruising in the Cloud yacht during the after noon. COMPULSORY VACCINATION.—The bill, as amended, to extend and make compulsory the practice of vaccination has been published. There are 13 provisions in the bill, and several schedules of forms. It is proposed to enact that the father or mother of every child born in England or Wales after the Ist of August, 1853, shall, within three months after birth, cause it to be taken to the medical officer of the place and vaccinated, unless the same shall have been previously vaccinated by some qualified medical practitioner. Penalties are to be en forced for non-compliance with the act. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. GOODWOOD RACES-THURSDAY. The heavy rain which fell during the night and early this morning, although it made the road pleasant for travelling, had the effect of rendering the course exceed ingly heavy, sorely trying the stamina of the young ones. The " Cup Day" is always the most attractive of the week, but this year the sporting interest was heightened by Dervish and Autocrat, the first favourites for the Derby of 1854, coming together to measure their strength in the Bentinck Memorial Triennial Stakes, in which Autocrat achieved an easy victory. The unsettled state of the weather diminished the general attendance, but the meeting was still a brilliant one. The " profes sionals" mustered in great strength, and the aristocratic visitors were more numerous than usual. The Cup, a handsome piece of plate, designed and modelled by Baron Marochetti, represents an incident said to have taken place at the battle of Cressy, where the King of Bohemia and two French knights devoted themselves to death by tying their bridles together, and dashing into the thick of the English army. This splendid memorial of French gallantry was appropriately borne away by Jouveace, a French horse, the property of M. Lupin, a gentleman well known in this country as a patron of horse-racing. By a singular coincidence the second horse, Hervine, was also bred in France, and belongs to M. Aumont, a French gentleman. Having yesterday given a list of the distinguished guests at Goodwood House, we need but observe that the same parties were to-day, with their noble hosts, spectators of the exciting sport, which came off as fol lows : PRODUCE MATCH of 50 sous. each, for 2-yr-olds ; colts, Bst 71b ; fillies, Bst 41b ; untried stallions or mares al lowed filbs ; both, 61bs.

A good start. Dagobert immediately rushed to the van and took a decided lead—Lambton, Knight of the Shire, Now or Never, Muscovite, Hervine, and Ambrose com posing the front lot, Jouvence lying some distance be hind them. In pretty nearly the same order they pro ceeded until they were round the Clump, when Dago bert declining, lost the lead to Hervine, and at the same time Jouvence, who increased her advantage at every stride, and eventually won easily by two lengths. Four lengths between the second and third, and between third and fourth. Peggy was sth, Weathergage 6th, Dagobert 7th, Massa Mungo Bth, Lambton 9th, Rattle 10th.

Octavia made the running followed by Phrygia, Jullien, St. Faith, and Lady Margaret to the turn at the top of the hill, where Black Swan and Corybantes drew forward. At the dis tance they passed Octavia, and after a good set-to, Black Swan won cleverly by a neck, the second beating St. Faith, who was third, but not placed, by a length and a half.
