BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY has ever since its introduction to the public been recognised, both by scientific men and the trade, as the best article ever manufactured in this mntry. its claims 'o such pre-eminence are based upon its unri valled purity, and its cl , ser as.imilatiou than any other to the flayour of the finest Champagne Brandy. ' Thete has beeh no Brands made from - wine in France, either in the present year or in the preceding one. Owing to the successive failures of their vintages, the French wine grower gets a higher price for his wine, vnsumed as such, than he can realise by its being distilled into Brandy; and forasmuch as the foreign Brandy of recent impor tations is but the product of British grain and beetroot spirits, the prestige hitherto exclusively enjoyed by French Brandy as having been distille i trom a particular French wine no longer exists, and is no longer worthily assignable to it now that it is bunglingly made from other materials. The supply of wine for distillation into Brandy having failed, the French distiller Is constrained to recur to a manu facture in which he needs the quarter of a czuttny's experience which has been .exercised upon that of BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY, to render his article respectably competitive, and he has not had it. Under these circumstances the Messrs. Betts challenge that their PATENT BRANDY is superior to any nrw made abroad. It is to the interest of the public and the Messrs. Betts that these facts Should be widely spr:ad, for recent importations are of a quality so inferior as to di grace the name they bear, and are twice the price of BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY, which is supplied by the trade, in capsuled bottles, to private families in any quan tity, down to the single bottle. Excise rertilations prevent its sale rom the Distillery, 7, Smithfield-bars, St. John-street, in any less quantity than two gallons. • By Authority of the French Consul-General.—Notice is hereby given, that the following SALE of PRESERVED BEEF will be the last on account of the French Government. CI ALE of FRENCH COMMISSARIAT sURPLITS STORES, consisting of PRESERVED BOILED BEEF, of English, Scotch, and Irish manufacture, in tin canisters of about 6 lb. each, and packed in wooden boxes containing 14 tins.— Mr. ALEXE.

When bent upon enjoyment they will pursue sport under any difficulty, and. seldom let foul weather interfere with their inclination or mar their plans. No wonder, then, that, despite the wind and rain which prevailed during the morning, the road to Epsom should be well thronged with all descriptions of vehicles; and that train after train should be despatched from the London-bridge sta tion. Indeed, the "licensed victuallers of the metropolis and their friends" seemed determined to pay extraordi nary observance to the fete-day which they themselves had called .into existence, and to prove that they took unabated interest in the two great races which were mainly established by their liberality. Those who trusted hopefully to a change in the skiey influences were not disappointed, for before the time ap pointed for the commencement of the proceedings the heavy lowering clouds rolled away, and at intervals the sun peered forth most cheerily. A better attendance of general company we do not remember at any preceding anniversary of the meeting. Not only was the Grand Stand enclosure thronged—a circumstance mainly owing to the liberal distribution of tickets by the Clerk of the Course—but the "outer set" of sporting men was nume rously represented, while speculators lined in double rows each side of the straight run in from the rubbing house to the half-distance. The business arrangements were the same as usual. The Newmarket staff of officials—Messrs. Clark, Man ning, and Hibburd—were engaged, and Martin Starling, " the man in the red coat," did good service in clearing the course. A detachment of the A division of police, under the direction of Superintendent Walker and In spectors Beckerson and Bray, was on duty, but the orderly behaviour of the spectators afforded the force no opportunity for active service. Indeed, the principal em ployment of the police consisted in chasing stray hats, which the boisterous wind raised into the air, and then sent bowling across the Downs. . The City and Suburban Handicap and the Metropoli tan Stakes were the be all and end all of the meeting. Although until within the last four days speculation on them had been very limited, yet the unexpected intro duction into the market at the eleventh hour of two little thought-of favourites created considerable interest' and curiosity. On Tuesday Wardermarske was brought with a rush into the betting on the City and Suburban Handicap, and on Wednesday Duloan3ara was quickly advanced from the extreme outside division to a promi nent position among the leading favourites for the Me tropolitan. As our return will show, both horses were defeated. The Epsomites had a great day, for the two principal events of the meeting were carried off by ani mals trained on the Downs. Adamas, the winner of the City and Suburban, was, it Will be remembered, a favourite for the Northamptonshire Stakes, for which event he was easily beaten, his owner attributing his defeat to the " use" which was made of the horse in the early part of the race. It will be seen that to-day diffe rent tactics were adopted in riding him, and that his jockey made what is technically called a waiting race. Adamas became the property of his present owner at the LONDON, Doncaster Spring Meeting last year, when he was pur chased, after winning a "selling race," for 145 guineas. He has wonderfully improved since he has been in*Mr. Mellish's possession, and his performance both for the City and the Metropolitan Stakes has' brought him into much notice for the Derby, especially, too, as it is be lieved that he was not exactly " fit." The supporters of Wardermarske deemed the race a " certainty" for their horse, whose defeat they attributed to a . disappointment he met with on coming round Tattenham Corner. Poodle, the winner of the Metropolitan, is trained by Reeves, of Epsom ; he was purchased of Lord Clifden last year by his present owner, Mr. Hale. The horse was scarcely mentioned in the ring, and his success compen sated the bookmakers for the ill-luck which attended them on every other event. Adamae, it will be seen, was within an ace of repeating the Virago achievement of 1554. Fisherman tired with his heavy weight, and Del ca.mara sadly disappointed his stable. The proceedings were brought to a conclusion about six o'clock. • Subjoined is a return of the racing : The Inkerman Plate, of 50 sous, for 2-yr-olds and up wards. Half -a-mile. Mr. Y.

The start was effected without delay, Janet, Poodle, Elcot's dam colt, Fisherman, and Cockatoo forming the front rank. On settling into their places, however, Madame Rachel bore her colours in advance, followed by Companion, Poodle, Elcot's dam colt, Aleppo, and Codrington, nearly in the order named, Adamas bringing up the rear. No material change took place until turn ing into the 0;r1 Course, when Madame Rachel gave way, Cockatoo going on with the lead, Companion being second, the others lying up so compactly that it was im possible to determine their relative positions. As they made for the bend towards Tattenham Corner Madame Rachel gradually disappeared from the front, and Poodle, Pantomime, and Codrington were the immediate followers of Companion and Cockatoo. On entering the straight the foremost horses took cloSe order,Adamas drawing forward, Poodle creeping into second place. At the distance Cockatoo and Companion dropped back, leaving Poodle with a slight lead, Adamas and Pantomime being se cond and third. From that point the race in with the first three was most exciting. Adamas made his effort opposite the stand, but failed to get quite up, and was beaten somewhat cleverly by a head, a neck only sepa rating him from the third.

The prisoner has made two escapes from custody, and his trial excited consider able interest. The prosecutor, Mr. J. R. Grant, is a sclicitor prat. tising in Bristol, and having a private residence at Brie lington, near that city: On the night of the 10th Feb ruary he was evalleieg home, and had turned down a bye-lane leading to his house, when he was attacked by two men, who knocked him down, and robbed him of his watch, chain, 4A. 6cl. in money, and other articles. Almost immediately after, Mr. Grant's servant came up, and they pursued and overtook the men near the river Avon. Mr. Grant knocked down one of the men, and his servant engaged the other, but was getting the worst of the encounter, having been stabbed, and being threat-, ened to be thrown into the river. Mr. Grant then went to the assistance of his servant, but was himself cut in the chin, and had two of his teet'd knocked out. Both men then made their e,cape. The day after the rob bery, a cap, which was identified as belong;eg to the' prisoner, was found near the spot where the first struggle took place, and some other minor circumstances connect ing the prisoner with the case were also proved. Both the prosecutor and his servant, though they declined, positively to swear to the prisoner, Expressed their strong belief that George was one of the men who were engaged in the robbery. The prisoner defended himself with much shrewdness, and cross examined the various wit. nesses with mingled impudence and ingenuity. The jury returned a verdict of guilty, and his lordship passed sentence of 20 year' transportation. NORTH WALES CIRCUIT,—CHnin, APRIL 2. (Bef are Mr. Earon Watson.) THE BIRKENHEAD MURDER. Thomas Smith, 21, labourer, was charged with mur dering Wm. Vaughan, police-officer, at Birkenhead, oa the 23c1 of December, 1856. About half-past one in the morning the prisoner and a man named Breen knocked at a public-house in Birken head, and wanted to get borne beer. The landlady refused to let them haYe any, whereupon the prisoner kicked in a panel of the door. The landlady sent for a policeman, and the deceased, Vaughan, came up and said, " You had better go home, you have had drink enough " They went a little way, when Vaughan was joined by another policeman named Whitehead. They asked the prisoner and his companion their cameo, but they refused to give them. Whitehead then said " Then let's take them to Bridewell," and laid held of Breen while de ceased laid hold of the prisoner. The prisoner appeared to offer some resistance, and on Vaughan's attempting to force him, he drew a knife and stabbed him several times in the breast. Vaughan cried . out, " I am stabbed," and felt. He was taken to the station-house, where be died in less than half au hour. The prisoner ran'off, but was knocked down and apprehended by a third policeman. The prisoner stated before the magi strates that the deceased struck him on the back and shoulders and twisted his hand in his neckcloth, and that be had no other way of defending himself and no inten tion of killing the policeman. His lordship, in summing up, said that there was no doubt that the death of Vaughan bad been caused by the prisoner. Now, was the prisoner guilty of murder or manslaughter. If the deceased was armed with law ul when he was arresting the prisoner then the crime was murder. The authority with which he was armed empowered him to arrest all " disorderly per sona" and " disturbers of the peace." In his lordship's view all breach of the peace had ceased when the de ceased came up to the public house. After deliberating about a quarter of an hour, the jury found the prisoner Guilty of manslaughter. His lordship said he would sentence hint the following morning. The verdict was received with some slight cheers in court, which were quickly subdued. The prisoner, who had been weeping throughout the time of his trial, ap peared greatly relieved by the verdict. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-April 2. SOUTHWARK. EXTRAORDINARY O:URGE OF FELONY AGAINST A GENTLEMAN OF INDEPENDENT PdOPEßTY.—William Gibson, a well-lresseti p nAidcle- aged person, who was described on the carge-"beet as a gen:leman of iudepeudect property, and who appeared in a very nervous state, was placed in thu felons' dock, be fore Mr. Buroliani, charged with stealing tour half crowns and sixpence from the person of Angelina Leman, a young German woman, s under the following extraordnaary circumstances The complainant, who was dressed in the first style of fashion, and'had her head adorned slur the manner of the Regent-street and Haymarket ladies, stated that, shortly after 11 o'clock oa the previous night, she went into a coffee-house at the corner of Hayrntirket and Windwat-street to meet a female friend. While there the prisoner, who Was much under the influtnce of liquor, accosted her, and asked her to be allowed to ac company her hone. She consented, and they got into a cab. At tat time she had loose in her pocket a half overeign, lour halt-croviEs, and a sixpence. What> ridittgilitt!..—'rtsie felt his hand about tue pocket of her dresN, bat knowing him to be un,er the irdluence of liquor she did not take much notice of that. When they arrived at her house in Stamford-street and alighted, she missed the four half-crowns and sixpence from her pocket, aid she then gave the prisoner into custody. When she first met him he 'said that he had 5001. about him, and he wished her to take care of him and that. The prisoner here said that, as far as he c.itild recol lect, as be was much intoxicated when he milt the female, he got into a cab with her to go to her house, but when he got there he was a little sobered, and, finding that it was near 3 o'clock, he objected to endtx the house with her, and on that account she gave him into custody for robbing her. Mr. Burcham (to the proseetitrix)—What are you Pro2ecutrix—l am in no business. I live on my money._ Burcham—Now, ate you not what is calhd a gay woman ? Witness (hesitating)—No, lam not, sir. lam a modest female, and live by myself. Mr. Burchain—What I a modest female, and pick up gentlemen in the Haymarket. That's very singular. Where do you live ? Witness—At 76, Stamford-street. Mr. Burcham— You say you live by yourself. What rent do you pay there ? Witness—l have only apartments there, sir. Sergeant 'Aylesbury, L division, here informed his Worship that a great many of the houses in Upper Stamford-street were no less than brothels. Mr. BLlrcham—Who keeps the hou s e ? Prosecutrix—Mrs. Moon. I believe her husband is something of a furniture dealer in the New-cut. Mr. Burcham—Now is it not a brothel, and other females lye there? Prosecutrix—lt is not a brothel; and I am the only ,odger._ Burcham—This is a very extraordinary case, and I should like to hear the evidence of the constable. Let him stand in the witness-box. Wm. Tarrant, 103 C, said he took the prisoner into custody at the door of 76, Upper Stamford-street, shortly before 3 o'clock that morning. The female said he had robbed her of four half-crowns and 6d. There was a cab at the door, and the prisoner paid the driver his fare, and he drove off before witness had an opportunity of searching the vehicle. She told him that she had come from the Haymarket with the prisoner, whom he searched and found two half crowns and some coppers.

The constable stated that he had been to those per sons' residences, but they had gone to the Epsom Spring Meeting. Mr. Burcham—Do you belong to London ? Prisoner—No, sir; I come from Richmond, in York. ehire. , (He here mentioned the names of several in fluential familier with whom he was acquainted there, which satisfied his worship that there must be some truth in his statement ) _ _ Mr. Burchatu (to the prosecutrix)—Did you coixte straight from the Haymarket with him in the cab t _ Prisecutrix—No, sir; he stopped the cab three times ga h n e d is leaves my at nin in th e at different public-houses, and tosch time paid the cab man, but I had nothing to drink.

After that you accompany him in a cab, and stop at several public-houzies. That is an extraor dinary thing for a modest female. I must order further inquiries to be made in this case ; therefore, I shall ad journ it until Saturday. In the meantime, I shall libe rate the prisoner ,on hi, own reoogni:auces until that day, when I expect that he will cause the attenuance of some of his friends. The prisoner was then liberated, assuring his worship that he was too much of a gentleman to rob a female. lie would rather give her money. RIDAY EVENING-, APRIL ; 1857.

Hanbury(who polled thesmallest number of the three Conservative . candidates) was wholly unexpected. Bat the Liberals here set an ex ample of organisation ' which the blundering and tracted Conservatives would do well—if they wis b.. to succeed—to imitate. It has been notorion for some days that these parties have been "all size is and Sevens," damaging each other's cause in the eyes of the public, and a house divided against itself cannot stand. The weather was most unpropitious, the rain falling ill torrent; throughout tbc greater part of the day. The Hon. Captain Hanbury, who, withlhe other Conservd. Hie candidates, visited Ross in the morning, was set upon by the mob, and was compelled to take refuge in a private house. • The final close of the poll showed the numbers to be as follow : Cotterel! 3,360 Blakernore. .

Eighteen rounds of ammunition and some food were in the limber-boxes. Besides the above were 252 rounds of gun ammunition, which I destroyed before leaving the bivouac on Sunday evening. The mules, eight in number, which carried it, I have brought into camp. I have 350 mid of arms, and I think fully treble that number must have been taken by camp followers and others.

SACRILEGE AT DEPTFORD.—Tbe church of St. Paul, Deptford, was forcibly entered on Wednesday night, and the whole of the sacramental plate, valued at up wards of 1501., stolen. The church is surrounded by iron railings, and stands a great distance from the public roadway. The rectory-house, however, is adjoining, and the robbery was therefore of a very daring cha racter, an entrance by the outer door being effected by means of skeleton keyth, an inner door being afterwards forced open. The thieves then s ucceed ed in reaching a heavy iron chest, in which t he p lat e and parchment writings of the church were d e p osite d. The 'chest was firmly imbedded in mason r y , not withstanding which At a meeting of the G e neral Screw Steam Shipping C om pany on Wednesday, a committee of th ree di rec t ors was a ppointed to superintend th e w i n di ng up o f t h e off ff e w th it i h ev th es eirbooty. contrived to remove it, and to get clear company ' s affairs. The Bosphorus, the only ship now remaining in the company's hands, is to be put up to public auction on the 9th of April, unless previously disposed of. It is now estimated that the shipments of specie by the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Colombo, with the India and China ma il s o f t h e 4 th, w i ll amount to at least 700,D00/., principally silver. An impression seems to be gaining giound that from this date the shipments are likely to become less heavy. At all events, the arrival by La Plata yesterday will partially meet the demand for the next fortnightly, steamer, after which the sum to be expected from Mexico will be calculated to lessen the activity of purchasers on the Continent.

MACAULAY WRITES HISTORY.—The best portraits are perhaps those in which there is a Flight mix ture of caricature, and we are not certain that the best histories are not those in which a little of the exaggera tion of fictitious narrative is judiciously employed.
