SH RE WSBURY MEETING.-WEDNESDAV.

Another dull, cold, and .cbeedees meaning was fol-
lowed by a warmer and more genial afternoon, the
sun actually condescending to shine while the last
four races were run off. The day's racing was a
very heavy one, and, in anticipation of large fields,
the first event was judiciously set for 11.45. The
sport commenced with an exciting finish, which resulted
in a deed heat between the favourite, Rob Roy, and
Lupus. The result might possibly have been different had
not Mira Alice been shut in by Lady 7.etland, into whose
heels she slightly struck, requiring all Cannon's ability
and strength to keep her from falling. The dead heat, by
order of the stewards, was run off after the Nursery
Handicap, and, with odds of 7 to 4 on him, Rob Roy won
cleverly by • neck, being afterwards sold to
Mr. W. S. Scott for sixty guineas. Glenarm
so disgusted Mr. Hodgman by his display of temper
'tithe poet, and his cowardly running when his jockey sue-
ceeded in getting off, that he sold him to a Mr. Treater
for " a termer " immediately after the race, expressing
an earnest wish that he might never see the brute again.
Herennianus started favourite for the Acton Binned
Stakes, and, thanks to Chslloner's fine riding, won by
I half • length, the hoisting of the winner's number being
the signal for loud cheering front the beakers. The win-
ner wax entered to be sold for 10 guineas, but Captain
Machell continued his biddings till 1.1 was reached. at
which price he bought him in. The Sheldon Cup was •
moat interesting race with such animals as Leonie, Knight
of the Garter, Regalia, l'.ounceaway, Queen of Trumps,
and Liddington, contending. Their canters were eagerly
watched, and Leonie gained new friends by the beautiful
style in which she galloped with that long and sweeping
stride for which she is remarkable. Knight of the Garter
and Bounceaway of the others were most fancied, and 4
to 1 was taken freely about each, in the face of the large
outlays at 2 to 1 in favour of the Duke
of Hamilton's elegant filly. Liddington's easy vic-
tory in the Wrekin Stakes on Tuesday induced some
outlays in his favour at 5 to 1, and Jemmy Grimahaw
imagined be had a good fair chance of success. Such,lhow-
ever, proved not to be the ease, as Leonie literally galloped
away from her opponents and Passed the post half • dozen
lengths in advance of Knight of the Garter, who alone
could make the semblance of a race of it. Queenof Trump,
as usual, was settled at half-a-mile, and Liddington was
pulled up when Grimahaw found that perseverance was
useless, as the horse was going to run in the Monkrnoor
Handicap. Regalia could not go the pace for the first
quarter of a mile, but she was rapidly catching her horses
from the distance. The Copeland Nursery brought out
the large field of 17 runners, producing an interesting race,
and resulting in the clever victory of Chivalry. Lictor, the
I favourite, again occupied third place, as in the Carnival
Nursery on Monday. The Column Handicap also brought
out a numerous array, 14 mustering at the starting peat,
and after an exciting struggle Grand Cross, against whom
asmuch as 20 to 1 was laid, defeated the Cambridgeshire
winner on the poet by • head. The three remaining races
were won easily.

6to 1 seas Mims Alice, A long delay occurred at the post,
owing to the fractiousness of Glenarm, who persistently
refused to join his horses. Eventually the flag was lowered
to an excellent start, Feemy holding a alight lead of Lady
Zetland, Rob Roy and Lupus, being slightly in her rear,
next, Glenarm, after going a short distance, being beaten
off. Approaching the distance Cannon attempted to bring
up Miss Alice on the inside, but Lady Zetland boring
on the rails Mr. Brayley's filly nearly came down
on her head. At this part of the journey
Lupus held a slight lead of Rob Roy, but Cameron got the
advantage at the commencement of the enclosure, and
maintained it to the centre of the stand, where Sellers
" came" with a rush, and made a dead heat of it. Miss
Alice was half a length behind the dead-heaters, whilst
Lady Zetland was fourth, defeated a head only ; Feemy
was fifth, close up, and Glenarm last, beaten off. The
latter was sold after the race to Mr. W. Treater, of Ten.

Moss WORKHOUSE 3iISMANAGILMINT.—At a
meeting of the Soulcoatee board of guardians on Tuft-
' day the following letter was read from Mr. J. Dix, surgeon
to the house :—" 2.1 Albion-street, Nov. 11.—To the
Board of Guardians.—Gentlemen,—lt has been already re.
ported to you that the workhouse is overrun with the
measles, from which upwards of 40 children have been or
are suffering and four or five bandied. Yet, in spite of this
warning, children from without are still being sent into
the house, into the midst of all this contagion and disease.
I oonsider this most unjust and iniquitous, and I hereby
record lay solemn protest against it. It any of these fresh
importations take the disease and die thereof, those who
send them surely incur a fearful Tesporuubility —tanta-
mount to manslaughter, in fact.—l am,
'gentlemen, your
obedient add humble servant, JOHN DIX.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—Nov. 13.

Sittings in Banco.—(Before Lord Chief Justice Barill and
Justices Wills., Kyles, and Keating.)
FRAY V. OWENII.

Liter in the day Bliss Fray again addressed their lord-
ships, and said that the court had been mistaken ; there
was no poundage in cases otarrest of the body.
The Lord Chief Justice—You are mistaken in that.

Miss Fray complained that she had in the morning not
been allowed to argue her case ; and added, that if she had
been she could have given a very different aspect to it.
The Lord Chief Justice—Well if you think you have
not been heard, you can say anything you have to say now.
Miss Fray said that she was not able to do so then, her
health would not allow it. She had no doubt she was
right in law, and clearly she was in equity. She was con-
fident that she would have been treated very differently by
the late high•minded Lord Chief Justice.
The Lord Chief Justice--The court must enforce some
kind of regularity ; you have been heard twice upon the
matter, and cannot be heard again.
Miss Fray—l do not think that your lordship ought to
sit in judgment on my case at all after having been counsel
for fourteen years for the Earl of Zetland against me.
The Lord Chief Justice—lf there is the slightest im-
pression on your mind that lam biassed by the fact of I
having been counsel for the Earl of Zetland in another
case, I will take no part in the matter.
Miss Fray—lndeed, my lord, I should not have lost this
very cause if your lordship had not been against me. (A
laugh) Your lordship held that the documents I sued
for were not in existence, and treated the matter as all
" bosh "—(laughter)—when the documents were actually
in court ; documents much older than any of your lord-
ship, for my father was neither a coal-merchant nor a
or.
The Lord Chief Justice—The court held that I was
right on that occasion, so you cannot open it again.
Miss Fray—Oh, it is not done with yet ; another ease
of mine is going to the House of Lords, and this one may
go there too.
The Lord Chief Justice—The court cannot allow you
to proceed ; there must be some regularity.
Miss Fray protested that she had been taken by •
when her motion had been so summarily • of ;
and she protested that she had been treated with great
injustice.

COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE.
Nov. 13.
(Before the Judge Ordinary.)
FINNEY V. YINNET.

Dr. Spinks, Q.C., and Dr. fiwahey for the petitioner ;
Mr. Servant Ballantine and Mr. Searle for the respon-
dent.

After our report left yesterday,
Mrs. Finney, cress•examined, said—l consulted my soli-
citor before I left the respondent. Had never even heard
of the Argyle-rooms before Major Finney mentioned them
to me. He charged me with impropriety before my mar-
dale. I denied it. Was never intoxicated, though I may
have taken three or four glasses of wine a day. Had drunk
brandy, but never tofexcess. Had not been taking too
many stimulants on the night the respondent made me
sleep on the floor in Paris.
A correspondence between the parties with dates
coming down to the end of last year was put in.
The language on both sides was that of the warmest
possible affection. One of the respondent's letters was not
read, but was handed by the learned serjcant to the
Judge-Ordinary. From her answers respecting it, it
appeared that after the major had, as she aid, repeatedly
accused her of some impropriety which she had steadfastly
denied, and had refused her access to her friends, he had
promised on the word of a gentleman and officer that he
would never let any one see it and she had thereupon
written an account of transactions till then unknown to
him. The witness appeared very much distressed at this
portion of the case.
Dr. Tyler Smith, who bad attended the petitioner, said
he bad never seen any reason to suspect her of intem-
perance, and a number of other witnesses were called to
support the case against the respondent.
For the defence it was alleged that the statements of the
petitioner were for the most part untrue, and that, in par-
ticular, there was no ground whatever for her statements
respecting the Argyle-rooms. It was also suggeeted that
without absolutely getting drunk she had a habit of using
stimulants to a degree that excited her and made her
behave in a strange and unressonable manner.
Major Finnis said be had bad to remonstrate with her on
this habit during the honeymoon, and that she promised
amendment. Had never cursed her, but had told her that
to begin their married life in such a manner was calculated
to call down a curse upon them. Had never left her for
more than a day in consequence of any dispute. On some
omissions be had gone to his house at Hammersmith for a
day, and when he returned he generally found her more
reasonable. Had never obliged her to kneel down and say
that she prayed God to strike her blind, but she had done so
of ber own accord. Told her that she had better not take
so dreadful an oath, for she would be certain to break it.
She had no Bible or book of any kind in her hand that
witness saw. Never used the abusive terms to her which
she had detailed. The Paris story was utterly untrue,
though once when she had drunk a great deal of brandy
she insisted on lying on the floor. She used to drink Eau
de Cologne amongst other thing.. Witness had told her
that if she did not mind she would have delirium trsmems
and end her days in an asylum, but had never threatened
to have a keeper for her.
The witness was under examin' ation when the court rose.

reported) said Ilte was in meet distressed actunstances.
He said the calm had been brought under hie notice by a
City missionary, and from inquiries made he deemed it a
deserving case. The result of this appeal was that a num-
ber of donations were sent with requests for acknowledg-
ments. From certain circumstances it was deemed pm-
.

dent not to acknowledge till a full enquiry bad been wide.
From what has been ascertained it is true that her hus-
band deserted her, but the magistrate now regrets having
sanctioned the appeal on her behalf, as abe is in other re-
spects not a deserving person. If contributors to the above
will forward their addresses their contributions will be re-
turned. If not they will be placed in the poor-box.
