SPORTING.

GOODWOOD RACES.-WEDNFALAY.

Even the interest excited by the " Stakes" was not sutlS.
dent to redeem the proceeding, from slowness. The minor
events attracted only limited fields, and they were unim.
portant in their results, and wore productive of a very
meagre amount of speculation. Although the morning
was clear sad sunny, and although, as far as the weather
warn concerned, every inducement was held out to pleasure.
seekers for visiting the course, yet .the assemblage seemed
scanty in the extreme. The Grand Stand enclosure was
less thronged than usual, and one portion of it occupied
solely by business men. On the raised embankment were
comparatively few ladies • and the Tumille Hill was very
sparsely dotted spectators. Altogether the attendance
was nut up to • Stakes day average.

The return of the races which we publish below suggests
few comments. The betting on the Goodwood Stakes un-
derwent a great change at the close. The tedious of
Satellite grew in numbers and in confidence up to the very
hour of starting, whilst Tocher pressed him hard in the
betting. Yet by etperienced judges neither was liked, the
American horse being described as small and without arms,
and Tocher as a little weedy mare. The pretest chew,
however, was with respect to Gridiron, who receded point
by point from 6t01t020 to 1 offered. Wallace has added
another to the many handicap achievements which his
trainer Golding has obtained during the current season.

race an oblestion was made against the nudity of the stark

distance three questa, of a mile inakad of half a mile.
The objection was withdrawn.

prove that the prisonerdid not keep an account at the Unity
Bank at tie time of this transaction.
13, Mr. Tee—Resew mid the fill. mentioned in the letter
to which he had referred was paid over by hint to Cam
bianca. That letter was not dated.
The prisoner declined to put any question to the witnesses
or to Ray aught in his defence, and Sir Robert Carden re-
mended him till Tuesday next.
Subsequently Casabianca, who had been in the meantime
apprehended under the same warrant, was placed at the bar
by Sergeant Russell, charged with being a party to the 1
conspiracy to defraud Mr. Kim. He is a gentlemanly-
looking man, 29 yams of rage, and speaks English with a '
foreign accent. He was described on the charge sheet as
• commission agent, residing at 20, Sutherlandetreet,
Waiworth-road. He had also a place of business at 414
Cheapside.
Mr. Tee again appeared for the complainant ; and Mr.
Hand, of Coleman-street, solicitor, was present on behalf
of the prisoner.
Police-sergeant Russell deposed that lgsa,shended the
prisoner on Wednesday evening, and on • the warrant
to him he at first said he knew nothing at about the
matter ; but in a subsequent conversation be asked where
Mr. Hones was. The reply was that he was in custody,
and had been remanded for a week. Witness then told him
it would be only fair that be should know what Howes
bad sail concerning him, namely, that he (Casablanca)
had received the greater part of the money for which the
goods were sold. Witness referred him particularly to a
letter of his, in which he had requested Mr. Honors to
supply him with 51/., and showing that he (Casabiance)
had before received 281. The prisoner replied. "All the
money which I have had was for my own gouda." Witness
said that could not be, for there were ten pieces of silk sold
to Mr. Bennoch, eight of which had been bought at Mr.
Kiss's. The prisoner made no observation after that, and
witness took him into custody.
Cross-examined by Mr. Hand—Rooms when taken into
custody mid the money was got to take up acceptances of
his in favour of Million and Co., when Casablanca said,
" All the money I have had was for my own goods ;" he did
not add, " and for money which Honess owed to me."
An extract from a letter, written by Casablanca to Mil-
lion and Co., of 36, Rue Imperial°, Lyons, from 42, Cheap-
side, on the Bth of February last, was put in by Mr. Tee
endread, as follows :—" I beg to request you to return to
me the protest of Mason. Hendee and Co., and to tell me
seriously if you will help them with some good references
till the same have paid- us. I have sworn to semi these
people to prison, but I see that this cannot help me. I my-
self must have 30/. from thew people. Under the cir-
cumstances I believe it to be the best to act on the English
proverb, which is, to make the living pay for the dead."
Mr. Hand said the prisoner Casablanca had represented
in Landon a large French firm for the last three years, and
if the evidence given was to operate to his prejudice, any
merchant in this city might any day be placed at the bar.
He had several circumstances te bringforward le his favour,
but as his client was about to be remanded he would not do
en then, but he submitted that the court ought to take
bail for his appearaaoe.
Alderman Cubitt remanded the prisoner until Tuesday
next: and agreed to take bail for his appearance then, him-
self in 2001.„ and two sureties ie 100/. each., 24 hours'
notice to be given of the names of the sureties.
Mr. Goodman intimated that eventually the charge
would be one of fraud as well as of conspiracy.
BOW-STREET.
A man who called himself Thomas Wilkins, but whose
rest name appears to be P.obinsen, was brought up on re-
mand, charged with falsely representing himself to be a
police-constable.
Sergeent Holmes, of the F division, deposed—On Saar-
day afternoon, at about 4 o'clock, 1 wont to the dark
arches in the Adelpbi, io consequence of some information
I had received from 60 F. I saw the prisoner, and asked
what be was doing there. I was in uniform. He said he
was a policeman of the H division, and was in search of a
woman who had picked • man's pocket a few days before.
I asked if his superintendent knew be was come there on
that duty. He mid, no. I asked if he was on day or night
duty. He replied, sometimes day and sometimes night. I
said it was strange to come from Whitechapel for such a
purpose, and asked if he had anything to satisfy me that
he was a policeman—as if he had not .1 must take him in
custody. He begged me not to take him, and then ad-
mitted that he was not a constable. I took him in custody.
Richard Wolff, F 60, deposed that being on duty in the
dark arches about 3 o'clock on Saturday, he saw the prisoner
there and asked bins what he was doing there. lie Made
the same reply na stated by Holmes. Wituess observed
that he wore his whiskers under hie chin, which is contrary
to the police regulations. From this circumstance he sus-
pected that the man was not a policeman, and he therefore
mentioned the matter to Sergeant Holmes.
Two other constables proved seeing the prisoner in the
arches at different times during the week. On each occa-
sion lie said ho was • constable in search of some person
who had committed a robbery, and on each occasion he nien-
tinned a different division of police as that to which he
belonged.
During the interval since the first examination, Holmes
bad made inquiries at certain addresses iudicatel by entries
in the prisoner's pocket-book, and had discovered that he
was a painter, and that his mime was Robinson. Holmes
suspected that his object was to watch persons who might
be committing any offence, and extort money on the pre-
tence of abstainiug from charging: them.
The prisoner denied this, but admitted that he had done
very wrong.
Mr. Henry thought the officer was right. It was difficult
to imagine any other motive. it was a very serious offence,
and as the evidence showed that it had been going on all
the week, he must pay the full penalty of 101., or be im-
prisoned for a month.
SOUTHWARK.
The Rev. John Brown Lee Courtney, the minister of St.
Stephen's Church, Southwark, attended to make the follow-
ing complaint against the Minnie Gas Company and their
servants. The rev. gentleman said that the company had
acted in a very arbitrary manner, by ordering the gas to be
cut off, on Monday lost, although there was no ineuey
due. He went to the company's offices at Bankside, and
paid all dennuels ou Tuesday. After he had done so he re-
turned to the church, and found two eel-mots of the Gm
Company there, and on further inquiry he found that the
company had ordered the gas to be cut off outside the
church, and that they had clandestinely obtained the key
and had climbed the gate, and hail not only injured the screw
on the church door, but rendered the key entirely useless.
The lock was also broken.
Mr. Combo asked whose property had been damaged?
Applicant replied that it was the property of the church-
wardens. He considered it but fair to tell his worship that
the Gas Company had turned en the gas to-day, but that did
not remedy the evil of which be had to complain. Must
wanton mischierhad been done to the church, and his ap-
plication wits to ask his worship's advice how he should act
in such a disgraceful affair
Mr. COmbe told him he could have summonses against
the parties for the damage done.
Applicant said he wished to punish the two men in the
Cad Company's employ for such grass and almost sacrilegious
conduct.

THE PROPOSED MEAT MARKET IN SMITH-
FIELD.

On Monday, a Court of Common Council was laid
in the Council-chamber, G for the despatch of civic
business ; the LORD MAYOpresiding.There was a large
attendance of members. Mr. Lowman Taylor, chairman of
the Markets Improvement Committee, brought up a report
from that body, relatim in some detail the proceedings in
parliament on the Smiafield Market, Streets, and Improve-
ments Bill. The purport of it, concisely stated, was that
evidence was adduced before the select committee to whom
the measure was referred by the salesmen that the quantity
of meat and the quantity of shop space required would
far exceed what had formed the basis of the estimate
of the Markets Improvement Committee, and the select
committee reduced the rate of tolls and rent 33 per cent.
below that which had been specified in the bill. The
salesmen likewise deposed that the market building
for any required by their trade might be con-
strue at much lees oast than that estimated by the City
architect. The Markets Improvement Committee, feeling
that they could not place sufficient reliance upon many of
the statements made by the salesmen to justify them in
accepting the bill in its altered form, had waited upon the
Home Secretary to learn whether be would move in the
house the insertion of amendments to restore the toll and
rent as originally proposed ; but Sir George Lewis thought
it would be difficult to induce the House of Commons to
alter the decision of the select committee. He was, how-
ever, of opinion that it would be very unfortunate id, after
the labour and expense which had been bestowed upon a
measure of so 'much public importance, and which con-
tained so many valuable powers, it should be withdrawn
from legislation onpoints which, if found to be erroneous,
might be rectified in a future session. As the bill contained
permissive and not compulsory powers, the committee were
of opinion that the recommendation of the Secretary of
State should be adopted, and that they (the committee)
should be authorised by the Court of Common Council to
prosecute the bill, which then stood for a second reading in
the Lords. Mr. Taylor now moved the adoption of the
report, and stated that in carrying the bill in its present
shape several important points would be gained—among
others, the sanction of parliament to the erection of a mar-
ket in Smithfield, north of Long-Line ; to a railway com-
munication with the proposed market for the conveyance of
cattle, meat, and poultry; and to the principle of a toll.
He added that should it eventually appear to the corpora-
tion that the rent and tolls legalised by the bill were not
sufficient to recompense them for the establishment of the
market, on which they proposed to expend nearly 500,0001.,
they would have the melamine of the Home Secretary in
applying to parliament for increased powers in a future ses-
sion. The motion was seconded by Mr. Anderton, and
after some further discussion, in which Mr. Budkin, Mr.
Connell, Dr. Ross, and Mr. Cox took part, was carried by
a considerable majority. After transacting some other bun-
DNS, the court was counted out, having sat four hours.
