TUESDAY EVENING,

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S-NONDAT.

A busy afternoon, but subscriber seemed more inclined
to watch the doings on the Derby than to take an active
part in them. It will be seen from our list of quotations
that Dundee slightly implored his position, whilst the
betting on the hones underwent no change. Not a promi-
nent feature for comment was presented during the after.
11000. The Bath events were only slightly touched upon.

EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE.

(From the Celestas Zvi'Wean.)

The following is the most miraculous escape from
dreadful death we ever heard of. The most thrilling inci-
dent in the most startling romance can scarcely equal it,
and yet it is true, perfectly true, awl the hero is alive and
doing well. On Thursday, March 14, the two sons of
Colonel Thomas, Godfrey and Frederick, left Musslore to
ride down to Jeripani. It was dark when they started.
The elder, Godfrey, a young man of about 18, insisted on
taking the lower raid, known as Mackinnon 's, and
his brother, rather than allow him to ride by
himself on • dark night, agreed to come with
him. The row! is both difficult and dangerous, and
Frederick Thomas's horse tell twice with him. Godfrey,
a mast dashing rider, then changed horses with him, and on
they went
all
Godfrey leading at headlong gallop.
The second all had rather stunned Frederick, awl lie soon
lost sight of his brother. Thinking, however, that he must
have gone on, he rode slowly home to his mother's house,
but his brother had not arrived. The whole family were
fearfully alarmed, awl though Frederick was too much hurt
to do anything himself, another brother started off with
men and torches to search for the lost one. Step by atop
for six long miles they traced, as they thought, the hoof
marks of both horses right up to where the upper ruid
turned off. A hope then sprang up in the minds of the
anxious relatives that Godfrey might have taken the up-
per and longer road. The natives, too, said that he had
on to Dehree, and a man was immediately sent off
Decal
to that place and Mweitorie. Daylight came, how.
ever, and no tidings. Unable to bear any longer inaction,
the other brother, Frederick, started off again on the
lower road. Six miles back he again followed the hoof
marks, and there near the edge of a fearful precipice, or
khud, as they are here called, were the deep indentations
made by the hoofs of a struggling horse. Hecrapt forward
to the brink awl peered into the abyss. Far down beneath,
more than a hundred feet, on a little ledge jutting out from
the face of the nearly perpendicular rock, lay a human form,
and that form was his brother's. A faint sickness caine
over him, and had it not Leen for two men near him, be
would have fallen. As soon as he recovered he shouted to
his brother, but with little hope of being answered. The
answer came, however—a low, feeble whistle—his brother
was alive ten hours after his

By this time the other brother and some friends had ar-
rived, and they managed to get down to where Godfrey
lay. One mass of bruises, faint with lows of blood, and a
face scarcely to be recognised for cuts, he still sat up and
spoke to them. He knew them, too, addressed them by
Dame calmly and collectedly. With some difficulty he
was raised from his perilous position and carried home,
where be still is, slowly, but we are glad to say, surely
recovering. The fresh track of a leopard was visible on
the road above, and it appears that his startled horse
io his headlong gallop went clean over the precipice at
a bound. The merciful finger of Providence is wonder-
fully sent throughout, but Godfrey Thomas awes
no small share of Lis preservation to his horsemanship.
With the natural instinct of a rider, he must have
got his horse together, as he felt him going, so as to keep
his feet straight under him. MKS and horse must have
touched that ledge together, mal the sudden shuck on reach-
ing it must have in good time unseated the rider, left him
lying there, and hurled the animal still further downwards.
the body of the horse was found literally smashed to pieces,
more than a hundred feet lower down. His rider had not •
bone broken, though so fearfully shaken. As we said, God-
frey Thomas is still alive, but It will be many day ere the
recollection of that fearful leap of a hundred feet sheer
descent in the dark kh rd, and the lung, lonely night passed
on a ledge of loose stones, not four feet wide, without even •
single shrub or stump to prevent his bruised body from roll.
ing over to certain destruction, fade from his memory.

THE STAFFORDSHIRE COLLIERS' TORN-0132.—We
understate' that the colliery at the lower end of Earl
Granville's works, Hanley, is again in pretty full operation,
the number of men having steadily increased every day
this week. The pita at the lower end, on the contrary,
are Ain at a stand. We have heard, however, of applica-
tions for work at those pits having been made ; and from
that and other circumstances we expect to see them in
operation again before many days. It ie stated that the
depressed state of the trade makes the managers corn-
parately' indifferent about raising any large quantity of
coal, and that they even contemplate taking up some of
the rails and other plant in the pits in question, and closing
up some of the works.—Matten at the Kidsgrere and Tower
Hill Collieries, Twists% remain in about the same position
as last week. Meetings. most peaceably conducted, continue
to be held, but from present appearances the men do not
seem inclined to concede. The notice lamed by the magis-
trates bud week seems to have bad • most salutary effect ou
the somewhat intinddstory system of begging, by yoking
men in a cart. and thus proceeding to obtain subscriptione
from deny to door, as no similar attempt has since been
made. —.Sto.f.,rdsh ire A,lrertistr.

I LABOURLES CIYI7AGE BlLL.—This bill, as
wended by the committee. is now before the house. It
provides that where a landowner has built or im-
proved any cottage upon land of which he is a landowner,
the EricMaur, Commussioners may, upoe application being
made to them, whereof notice is to be given in two news-
tir, grant an order declaring the inheritance of the
obe charged with the expense of the improvement.
The land to be charged must be in the erne parish as the
cottage, or within one mile thereof, and the principal sum
to be charged in respect of any cottage is not to exceed
1301., while the yearly interest to be charged in respect
thereof is not to exceed 4 per cent.: nor is the total
principal sum to be charged to exceed the amount which the
inheritance will be durably benefited by the improvement.
The charge is to be by way of half-yearly payments, extend-
ing over not fewer than 20 or more than :10 years, and may
be recovered by like means as the tithe rent-charge. If
occupiers pay the charge, they mar deduct the amount from
the rent, and companies authorised to execute works for the
improvement of land may make advances on the security of
charges under this act. The Enclosure Coraminioben an
also empowered to give a provirimial sanction to projected
improvements, and afterwards, when the, have been carried
out, may grant a charging order. The set will not extend to
Scotland or Ireland.
