THE WATERLOO CUP.

The race for this, the greeted of coursing prises, and
not inaptly termed the "blue ribbon of the bold,'
resulted in the overthrow of all the favourites, and the
mimeo of the dog "Boowtlight," which on the night
of the drew stood at 66 tot. In this county consider.
able interest was manifested, and a lot of money went
up from various towns, ties amount coming to Shea,
borne In case of the local kismet winning being equal
to a small fortune. It is estimated that if One Of Mr.
Miller's dogs had succeeded the sum of at least
£15,000 would have coma to the town. As is pretty
generally known by this time all the three dogs DOnlia•
sted by him, as well as • fourth, Clayto, from his
Waterloo Cup winner bfisterton, went down, three of
them in the first, and the fourth In the second round.
Besides the great etch, of the Waterloo Cup, the first
prise of witch is E5OO, there are two other sets of
prises offered fur loser•—the Waterloo Puree and
the Waterloo Plats, the first being worth over
two hundred guineas and the latter £145.
Every dog disqualified in the cop has the par:live of
being entered for these stakes. Mr. Miller declined
to all iw his dogs to compete in them, as did some
other owners of leading greyhounds. The Waterloo
Cup was won on Friday by Snowlight, by B Abel
Park—Curiosity, after no less than three most exciting
courses with the second dog left in—Lord Alington's
Horn Pipe a circumstance without the slightest
parallel in the history of coursing. The winner is
said to be tits property of • pitman in the neighbour-
bsod of Newcastle, and it is also said that
Ea* who figures as the nominator, is in r?ailfet;i:
clergyman of the Established Church. Th. Waterloo
Purse was taken by Mr. Wiwdeee Mecpber,on, which
beat in the lad owes the renowned Princess
Hamar. The Waterloo Plate was won by Deboonaire.
As is often the ease, the result hat been so entirely
put to confusion the whole of the sporting profession
and the cunning gentlemen who harry they lutow

NEW MUNICIPAL BUILDINGS FOR
WE
To Ous Editor.

fiir,—l see in last week's report of the Town Council
that there is a proposal for the enlargement of the
Council Chamber and • building of • strong room to
contain the important records and other documents of
the town.
I think this seems a fitting opportunity to consider
fully the propriety of dedicating the present Town
Hall (which is far below the wants of • fashionable
watering place), lately to police pummels and the ad-
ministration of public justice, and erecting more
modern and oommodious municipal buildings. It has
been long admitted that the eremites& desideratum in
Weymouth is a large central Hall. which shall supply
the requirementa of • room suitable for concerts, public
meetings, baths, banquets, or exhibitions, and shell
also form an agreeable lounge for visitors in cold or wet
weather.
The first point (after admitting the necessity, which
io, I believe, unanimous throughout the town), is the
Question of site.—l believe myself the most eligible is
hat now occupied by the block of bubdiam called
Covent Garden Howe, Nos. 2 and 3, Grosvenor Place,
and the Cutter Hotel,and the other houses behind these,
facing East-etreet. This would afford • magnificent
façade both towards the whole Esplanade, in view
even op to St. John's Church, and another towards the
Bay, and, as I believe it belongs to the Johnstone
Estate, and we all know how reedy our mitemnsd mem-
ber is to promote this es.al object, no insuperable
difficulties need be anticipated in dealing with the
site.
Second : The character of the building to be erected.
—I would nagged that the lower or ground floor facing
the vapignsde, Alexandra Gardens, and fit Albeit's-
street, should be devoted to shops, which in such a
good situation would readily let, and thus form a noun,
of certain imams for the ratepayers. The sick towards
East-street might well consist of the administrative
bending, such as committee-rooms, str?rif-room
kitchen, attendants rooms. ac. Above this.
mimed by • Plod staircase, facing the sortie, lot
then bee large ball, suitable for all or any
purpose,
and provided with an orchestra, and perbapseii
bun winery mound it, something like St. James's Hall,
but one smaller scale; this, with the necessary wait-
ing and dressing rooms, and lavatories, would occupy
the entire first flour, while above all should be ims-
otrooted slight ornamental building ot_glam and iroo,
which would Iwo at tbs tome time a Wigis, Goodin.
