VIE GOODWOOD CUP.

The field for the Cup had, with divers scratchings—
the most oonspicuous among them being Fine de l'Air,
Gladiateur, end Wild Charley—dwindled down to small
dimensions. Union Jack, who since the French horse's
retirement bad ben first favourite, retrograded some
five or six points, and Eltham took his place. Cam-
bum= too was somewhat shaky, Ely and General Peel,
about which former's starting some doubt had been
expressed, came into the position of second and third
favourites. There was the ususl "promenade" before
the stand, and the usual amount of admiration expressed
at the bloom and beauty of the respective fancies of the
public. If there were one or two that excelled the rest
in condition and good looks the palm must be awarded
to Breeze, Ely, Eltham, and Cambuscan. The start
was effected at the first attempt, and Privateer rushing
to the front made the running, and continued it, with
Breeze and Eltham in attendance, for about a mile.
Ely by his brilliant performance, one, as far as we are
aware, never excelled, has stamped himself as the beet
horse in England, second only to Gladiateur. This is
the third cop Mr. Cartwright has carried off with him.

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE ALPS.—Mr. Knyvet
Wilson, a master of Rugby School, amended the
Riffelhorn on the evening of July 18, without ropes
or guides, and as he did not return to his hotel
search was made for him. His dead body was found
among the rocks on the following morning. It is
presumed that he fell in descending the rock, which
is dangerously slippery near the summit.
STABBING AND SUICIDL—A marine-store dealer,
named Bunter, stabbed Detective Inspector Annie,
at Plymouth, on Saturday, when he went to search
his premises. On Tuesday Bunter made a desperate
attempt to commit suicide. He broke his breakfast
basin, and with the pieces cut the arteries of his
arms and throat in a shocking manner. He died in
the course of the day of the wounds he inflicted on
himself. Annia is still alive.
