SPORTING.

I)OIWASTER RACES,:WIDNISDAT.
At a hasty guess we stated that the attendance of com-
pany ere the flr •1 day was err el to as ge. The re-
ceipt* at the Or did Stand proved that we fell short in our
calculation. Upwards of 2,0001. were taken, an amount
which showed an increase of fully 2001. Another, an - per-
kips stronger, proof was afforded by the railway returns of
rummager traific during the day.
At an early hour this morning all apprehensions of un-
favourable weather were dispelled by a bright sky and a
clear atmosphere, and as the day wurs on the sun shone
forth with en exhilarating influence.
Thousands of holiday.folk, bent on seeing " t' Leger run,"
arrived by train after train, with marvellous safety and
despatch, until the human hood that goofed into the town
from all quarters was swelled to an immense extent.
By
two o'clock the principal points of the view on the course
were deco ly eau pied—stands end inclosure were w ded
the magnates and professionals of the turf gathered
together in large number, and the race of the day was
looked forward to with a degree of anxiety and excitement
seldom if ever surpassed. When the bell rang for saddling,
so intense was the feeling that was excited that " the boldest
held his breath fora time." Everything connected with
the work of preparation for the race was eagerly watched,
and when the horses were called to the post, the corp-d'ail
was grand sud imposing in the extreme.
It will he seen by the subjoined details that the result of
the nee justified the confidence which, through evil report
and good report, wis placed in West Australian. By the
triple triumph of winning the Two Thousand, Derby, and
St. Leger, be has achieved a reputation which may challenge
comparison with that of the most distinguished of turf ce-
lebrities.

SKELTOI O. THI It!tV. G. TATLOZ -SINOVLAR Br-

11AYtOCn Ut' A CLELUTYAN Al' A FUNNIML.
This moan anion brought by the plaintiff, a retired
tradesman residing in the Caledonian-road, against the de-
fendant, the Rev. George Taylor.stated to be the officiating
clergyman at the Saint Oiles's-in-the,Fields Cemetery, Old
Saint Faunae-road, and of which establishment he is also
seztoo, t 4 recover the sum of 41. lis., being for money had
and received for plaintiff's use and expenses incurred, eon-
, ',queue on • breach of agreement. The ease being of a
, novel character, the hearing excited peat interest.
The plaintiff stated that, on the 26th of June last, his
' wife dying, he, on the 29th went to the Saint Oiles's
Cemetry to choose a spot of ground fo► her grave. He
saw the defendant's brother, who acted as assistant sexton,
to whom he pointed out the place he chose, saying
that he should like the grave to be iii feet deep, which
being by that person agreed to, he went into the office, and
paid to the clerk 13e. 6d. for the ground, and 2s. &I. for it
to be banked up for twelve months, receiving in return a
card, with, on it in ink, 333 A, a corresponding number to
which was on the ground he had chosen, stuck at the end
of a stick. Oa going with the corpse on the 3rd of July
they INTO taken to a grave in a contrary direction to where
he had agreed for, sad about three or (our feet deep, to
which objeetiog as not what he had paid for, defendant
said, " Yon can't have what you want, and if you don't
have that, yon can do your best and your wont." He con-
sequently had the body taken from the burial-ground to
an undertaker's, named Nash, in the neighbourhood, where
it remained till the Tuesday when the interment took
plane, at the St. Martin's-in-the-fields burial-ground, about
a mile distant.

_
By Mr. Williams—To his recollection the defendant did
not offer him another grave 8 feet deep, and on insisting on
the one he had agreed for be was told it was engaged.
The plaintiff's sea corroborated bit father's statement,
adding that, on the coffin being brought back from the
ground, it was taken into the chapel and his father being
eery ill, sat down beside it. Shortly afterwards the defen-
dant, who bad divested himself of his surplice, entered and
addressing the plaintiff said, " Now, what do you want ?"
to which plaintiff replied, "I want the grave which I se-
letted.” Defendant made answer, "Yon can't have it, and
if you don't like the one which bee been pointed out to
sr, you may take the corpse away, and do your best."
Witness then asked him for the registrar's certificate, which
was always given to the clergyman by the friends of a de-
emed person before the funeral took place, but he refused
to give it, and still retained it. and it was with great dill-
ashy that a second one could be procured to authorise the
interment.

By Mr. Williams—lli, father distinctly stated to defen-
dant's brother that the grave should be six feet deep, and
be was positive the one they were taken to, with the coffin,
u well as being io a different part of the ground from that
chosen, was not more than two feet. While the corpse was
at Mr. Nash's, he saw the defendant once or twice on the
subject of the burial, and each time the latter was very
saucy to him. The money now sought to be recovered was
for the expense of what might almost be termed a double
funeral.

Clement Whittaker Tayler said—He was assistant to the
defendant, who was his brother, and his evidenco went
only to show that the piece of ground chosen by the plaintiff
proved to be a private grave.
His Honour considered that a contract had been entered
Into between the plaintiff and defendant, which the defen-
dant had violated, and against whom therefore his decision
must be.
Judgment for plaintiff with costs.

CHELMSFORD COUNTY COURT.
Tau RIGHT HON. LORD RATLRION O. CRARLRB Sierra,

LITTLF BADDOW.-ACTION FOR TRISFASS.

Mr. Stevens, of the firm of Banks and Stevens, solicitors,
Witham, appeared for the noble plaintiff.
Mr. Stevens said—This was an action to recover in cones-
vitae' of a trowel committed by defendant's hone,
Lord Rayleigh was the owner of a portion of a fore-crop of
grass in a common mead in Little Beddow, and the de-
fendant's horse had upon several occasions been seen in the
standing gram. When told of It, defendant replied he had
lave to tura It ea by some other party, who lied a share in
the after-feed. The custom was, that several people wbo
owned land in the parish had a portion of the fore-crop,
and these persons were entitled in common to turn their
cattle in. Lord Rayleigh had brought this action because
this had previously formed a subject of great complaint
among the parishioners generally. The defendant had no
right to have his home feeding in that rased.
John Perkins said he was in the employ of Lord Ray.
leigh, on Warren Farm, Little Beddow, and was engaged
to cut the grass in the mead in question. When be went
one morning to cut the grass, he saw defendant's horse in
it, which he and another drove on to another piece in the
same meadow which had been eat. Considerable damage
was done, so much so that the horse, or some other, must
have been there the previous nights. Witness saw defen-
dant on the afternoon, and told him about it, when he
replied, " Mr. Dennis's sheep have been into my oats, and
I thought I might pat my horse into his grass." It caused
greater unable to cut than it would have done had the
horse not been on it, _ _

the defendant given me beer, I
should have given the ISM evidence as now.
Francis Perkins corroborated the previous witness.
Malley wes called to prove that the hone was upon his
employer's grass, but said he could not say whether it was
upon his grass or upon the adjoining piens, belonging to
another pasty. He found grass had been trampled upon.
Was sure defendant's horse was there.

Cross-ezamined—Oihion's horse was upon the towing-
path. Did not tell defendant there wore other horses
there.
' John Loveday, looker to Lord Rayleigh, proved that on
Saturday, the 2nd of July, he saw where the horse had been
lin the gram. He estimated the damage at ss.
This being the plaintiff's ease,
Mr. Smith said he had a pasture close to the meadow in
question, and his hone was turned in. By some means a
rail was broken and the animal wandered into the grass.
This was, he said, the moot trumpery case ever brought into
a court of law.
His Honour thought it was not for the defendant to call
a case a " trumpery" one, when a right was sought to be
protected.
Verdict for the plaintiff.
