THE DERBY FAVOURITE.
(From the Times of this day.)
For one day Sebastopol has been forgotten. For
twenty-four hours Menschikoff and Gortschakoff and
wane quod exit in " off" have passed away from the
Anglo-Saxon mind as though such things as trenches
and Lancaster guns, and saps, and raveling, and fascines,
and gabions existed not. If the Russians bad come in
upon us in our happy little island yesterday we should
have presented a grander spectacle than those old
Romans we used to read about in our schoolboys who
received the Gauls in full state, sitting upon curule
chairs, and holding sceptres in their hands. They would
have found universal England upon Epsom-downs, cheering
and shouting, and filling up beakers of champagne for
beauty's lips, thimble-rigging slightly, and betting ex-
tensively ;—was it not the Derby day ? Yesterday we
really could not be bothered with the Four Points. We
were taking► our ease and disporting ourselves—it was a
time of decided truce. The Derby day turned out a
memorable one in the Fasti of Epsom. We do not
shrink from recording the fact in columns usually dedi-
cated to more important subjects, for one might be per-
mitted to accept the event as an omen. A horse—Wild
Dayrell is the excellent creature's name—the property
of a gentleman not upon the turf, trained by his own
groom, not by a professional trainer, and ridden by a
jockey not a professional jockey, has actually been de-
clared senior wrangler in the great horse tripos. No
one who has not been initiated in the foul mysteries of
the turf, or who has not been indoctrinated by an adept,
can have any idea of the difficulties with which an un-
fortunate quadruped has to contend which is galloping
for high honours. It is actually necessary to surround
him with detective officers and policemen for weeks,
almost for months, before the day of the struggle, to
see that some atrocious trick is not played by your own
familiar grooms—by the very men on whom you chiefly
relied. Now he meets with a stable accident—now he
springs a sinew while taking his breathing gallops—now
he falls sick of some mysterious internal disease which
baffles the skill of the horse faculty. The commonest,
perhaps, of these acts of rascality is to mix up ground
glass in the favourite's oats, which modification in his
diet is nnytbing but calculated to promote equine
digestion. Wild Dayrell had run the gauntlet of all these
little playful projects, and by intense vigilance bad been
brought safely through. Grievous was the dismay of the
practical diplomatists of Epsom-downs when they saw
him yesterday emerge from his stable in the finest pos-
sible condition, and canter up to the starting-post. The
history of the race will be found elsewhere in our
columns to-day ; suffice it here to say that Wild Dayrell
made very fair weather of it indeed, and easily beat his
antagonists. Let us recommend the point to the meditation
of our First Minister and his Austrian friends, and more
especially to the careful consideration of the Chancery at
St. Petersburg. There are Wild Dayrells elsewhere
than on the racecourse of Epsom. Chicane and trickery
do not in the long run prevail, whatever may be the
opinion of professional jockeys cr of professional states-
men. We take it that the English people just now may
be fairly represented by the winner of the Derby yester-
day. Many a trick has been tried upon us, many an
overweight has been placed upon our backs, many a
pinch of ground glass has been slyly introduced into our
comfortable feeds, at which we so confidingly champed
in the unsuspiciousness of our hearts. We lay down in
our own loose box, amid our own grooms, and fondly
supposed that our attendants, who were so highly paid
for rubbing us down, promoting our little comforts, and
attending to our interests, would stand between us and
all harm. The reverse of all this has turned out to be
the fact. Wild Dayrell, however, is sick of professional
jockeys, and " calculates" that if any one will fairly sit
him, and give him his head, he is able to give a good
account of himself as against his competitors. We have
no doubt that in the long run Wild Dayrell will kick
himself free, and justify the expectations of his original
backers.

THE CIVIL SERVICE.
(Prom the Times of this day.)
So a beginning has been made, and the Civil Service,
that great preserve of patronage, is to be invaded by ex-
amination ! That principle which in this country la-
bours under so many stigmas, which some call doctri-
naire, others Chinese, others French, others only an ad-
ditional cloak for jobbery, is to have a trial, The ordi-
nance has gone forth, and the names of the three incor-
ruptible judges ere before the land. Before the awful
forms of Ryan, Lefevre, and Romilly corruption, ignor-
ance, and incompetency are to quail and hide themselves.
The gates of office are not, indeed, to be thrown open to
the ambitious commonalty, to the students of the London
University and its hundred affiliated colleges, or to any
class at all ; the chiefs of office are still to nominate, still
to prescribe the qualifications to be required, and even to
appoint absolutely in some cases. But, at all events,
this tremendous triumvirate, which has been so long
impending over the realms of close patronage, is
actually installed. With their secretary, and their as-
sistant-examiners, they constitute the nucleus of an
official University. So there is an end of that firm belief
lying at the foundation of British society, deeper than
loyalty itself, that the British gentleman is fit fer every-
thing, fir any office, for all duties, for all kinds of emer-
gencies. It is an old, an honourable, and an ennobling
1 sentiment. Sancho Panza himself did not repose a
stronger confidence in his master than the British cem-
nv in the gentry. That honest, drudging,
weather beaten, toil.vorn slave, the working class—ay,
the middle class too of this country---of what does it
think a real gentleman not capable ? Barring that a
gentleman now and then makes a few mistakes in pe-
cuniary or in mechanical affairs—excepting, too, that a
groom may know more of horses, a builder f piecf-
work, or a gardener of broccoli, the gentleman can at
least fight a battle, govern a province, or help to
make laws for an empire. It is true he may have to
ask the name and locality of his province ; he may re-
quire much assistance from lawyers in making his laws,
or from clerks in administering a public department, or
from commissariat officers and such people in conducting
a campaign ; but then'is he not a gentlemen, and has he
not within him that master faculty whereby he can
speedily overcome all the difficulties of every position
and every branch of knowledge ?
Yet one trembles to think of the pressure to be
thrown on three men, even aided as they will be by their
staff of examiners. The only parallel that occurs to us
is that of the Grenadier who seven years ago singly
faced a rabble of some twenty thousand men pouring
down Parliament-street, and roughly declined their
offers of fraternisation. Perhaps the checktakers
at the Opera or the Queen's servants at a Drawing-
room have occasionally to stand an equal current.
How will the three comrnisioners deal with a mob
in which Peers and M.P.'s constitute the least
importunate part ? Will they be trodden under
foot, or be carried off their legs, or actually stem the
torrent ? Somebody the other day, in order to try the
force of the stream at the falls of Niagara, dropped a
401 b. plummet from a height of about 200 feet, and it
would not sink a yard, but danced, ler;or cortice, on the
surface, at the di-dance of the line. Remember how Sir
Robert Peel extinguished by ten timely words all the
labours of the Railway Board, and restored the reign of
chaos and Parliamentary committees ! How much
easier for a saucy Premier to consign three examiners
to hopeless insignificance ! The faintest curl of the
lips, one word of cold praise, would do it effectually.
The difficulty, indeed, will only arise on the supposition
that the three men will be the men of savage virtue which
the rigour of their office will require. It is far more pro-
bable that they will be too convenient to be discredited.
Ail our chiets havelong ago declared thatthey want some-
body to sift applications, merely to thin them; they exceed
the physical powers at command for their consideration ;
they can only be treated as Mr. Roberts treated the
offers of foreign legionaries--thrown a score at a time
into the basket. Here, then, is the first use of an ex-
amination board—.simply as a sieve. The second we
can only whisper, and we do so on the supposition that
the three examiners are the immortal abstractions—
Brown, Jones, and Robinson. Only suppose that
Brown has a note, or a hint conveyed in five words, a
wink, and a smile, signifying that Young Such-a-One,
who is coming up to-morrow, is a very clever fellow in
his way, worth a dozen bookworms, only his attention
has been turned to other things ; that he has no taste for
Euclid or Propria qucc Illaribus ; that he can learn any-
thing he pleases with proper inducement ; that he is
rather shy and awkward at first ; and that, in a word, if
he should prove incompetent, somebody is prepared to
take the responsibility. Already, in the order as it
comes out, anybody with the recommendation of a ma-

grounds. How long will promising young men be ex-
examination to be public ? It is rather strange that
those two much abused "close" institutions of Oxford
• and Cambridge should be the only places in this country
that can afford the bold and manly practice of public
examinations. There is nothing like absolute publicity
for securing that an examination shall be no sham. Any
London merchant, any Manchester reformer, any young
lady, any ploughboy, may walk into the gallery of the
examination schools at Oxford, and hear an earl exa-
mined, not only in Greek and Latin, in history, in philo-
sophy, in mathematics, but in the Bible, and on other
subjects within the common apprehension. He stands
up face to face with three or four men, who with their
books before them, ask him the toughest questions they
can, generally with a prevailing wish to prove they know
a great deal more than he does. There is no collusion,
no favour, not even mercy there—often not even a gen-
tlemanly consideration for nervousness. This is a true
ordeal, and there is no escaping it. Be the matter of the
examination ever so ill selected, and the teaching ever so
indifferent, a man must learn a good deal to pass, and
he must have it actually in his head, and in a producible
form. So long as the universities retain public

SPORTING NOTES.

AN OPINION ON THE OAKS.

I shall not now attempt to enter into any particulars
of the great race yesterday. All that is important and
all that the reader will require to know has been faith-
fully set forth by the recognised turf reporter. Wild
Dayrell's achievement is gratifying to all persons in-
terested in the popularity of the turf, for it shows how
sinister were the lying reports circulated with reference
to the horse and jockey, and that the race was honestly
run and honestly won. As to the scratching system
which was adopted, I shall reserve my remarks.
The guesses at truth published in The Sam of Monday
last were strikingly correct. They were as under :
" With whatever seeming accuracy calculations may
be framed, it is impossible to reduce the result of the
race to a certainty. On an impartial consideration,
however, of the comparative chances, I am induced to
believe that the winner will be either
KINGSTOWN or WILD DAYRELL.

Should this selection prove unfortunate, then,
OF THE ISLES, I TRUST IN THEE."
Time presses me so sorely that I can only say, I fancy
the first three for the Oaks will be Nettle, Blooming
Heather, and Capucine, my preference being indicated
by the order in which I have written the horses' names.
Should Fortune favour me as on Wednesday, my
readers will doubtless be satisfied with the advice and
guidance of A FRESH MAN.
Tuesday Morning.

SPORTING INTELLEGENOE.

THE DERBY DAY.

The all-important event of the summer meeting on
Epsom Downs is unquestionably the race for the Derby.
Not to have seen this celebrated contest is, to the Lon-
doners generally an omission of a serious duty that few
would choose to acknowledge ; many, indeed, make it a
point to attend every year ; there are thousands of per-
sons who have never missed a Derby since they were
able to enjoy the pleasures of the day, and these are not
of the class of persons known under the comprehensive
designation of "sporting men," but steady citizens,
fathers of families who never ventured a shilling on a
race, but who hold it essential to the maintenance of our
ancient institutions that they should show themselves at
the Derby in garments adapted to the severity of the sum
mer weather. The glory of Epsom has, however, been
palpably dimmed since the railroad has been opened. The
scenes that formerly afforded ample employment for the de •
scriptive pen are rarely now to be witnessed on the road ;
the dashing four-in-hands, the stylish barouche=, and open
carriages; the stage-coaches crammed inside and out; the
laden vans and omnibuses rolling in one continuous
stream between Kennington-gate and Epsom ; the stop-
pages, collisions, ,and breaks down that once formed the
incidents of a trip to The Derby, have given place to a
more orderly and systematic state of things. The great
majority of visitors now avail themselves of the facility
afforded by the railway to reach Epsom in half an hour
without trouble or annoyance, and the few vehicles still
seen upon the road are mostly those of country residents
or of persons travelling in their own carriages.
The Derby of 1855, although favoured by fine
weather, has not been an improvement on its predeces-
sors either in the number or the respectability of its
visitors. The railway carried down full freights from an
early hour in the morning with the utmost regularity,
and the racing amateurs mustered in undiminished
strength in the Grand Stand and the Enclosure, but the
general attendance was by no means so large as we have
seen it on former occasions. There was a visible defici-

ency too in the muster of private carriages on the hill,
and the attendance of ladies on the Grand Stand was
rather limited.
There can be no doubt that the war and its depressing
influences have had their effect upon the Epsom meeting,
and that the spirit which, under more propitious circum-
stances animated the multitudes who covered the Downs,
had lost much of its jollity.
Throughout the morning, and until after the great
race, the sky was cloudy, and the air cold ; but as the
afternoon wore on, the sun broke forth, and a lovely
evening crowned the close of the day's amusement.
Taken in a sporting point of view, this has been a
most interesting Derby, owing to the uncertainty that
prevailed in the best informed quarters respecting the
result, or rather from the confidence with which different
parties maintained the superiority of their respective
horses. After various ups and downs in the scale of
public estimation, the competition on the morning of the
race lay almost entirely between Wild Dayrell and Lord
of the Isles—the former having the advantage in the
betting.
The first race on the card—for the Carew Stakes—did
not create any interest ; only two started ; the eager
multitudes being wholly intent upon the great event of
the day, for which twelve went to the Post. Wild Day-
rell, who is a large and powerful horse, had abundance
of admirers, and his backers felt perfectly satisfied with
his appearance and style of going ; Kingstown appeared
to be in the full bloom of condition ; and both Flatterer
and Lord of the Isles rose in favour with the best judges
as they cantered past the Grand Stand. Soon after three
o'clock the starter's flag was dropped, and the dozen
for the Derby went away at the " first offer" with an
excellent start. A full description of the race will be
found below.

The return home in the evening W3cl effected with ex-
treme regularity a•id expedition by the railway. We
thought, as we beheld the immense muses cf people
conveyed along the line without the slightest confu-
sion, and with probably less inconvenience than many
ladies experienced at her Majesty's Drawing-room,
that some of our officials in the East, might, with
advantage, have taken a lesson from the manage-
ment of the'railway. Had the transit been in the hands

of Government authorities, either the engine would
have broken down, or come to a dead stand from the
want of coal or water, or the train would have been
sent to Brighton instead of to Epsom—or something
would have gone wrong, so that half the passengers
would have most probably been left to enjoy themselves
for the night on Banstead Downs.
The business of the meeting wag, as usual, most effi-
ciently conducted. The order and promptitude with
which the course was cleared testified not only to the
excellence of the police arrangements, under Superin.
tendent Hughes and Inspectors Beckerton and Langley,
but also to the propriety of conduct which characterised
the vast masses of spectators. Messrs. C. Martin and
Fuller Andrews did good service at the Grand Stand en-
closure, and the commissariat department was most sa-
tisfactorily supplied by Messrs. Jaquet and Woodruffe.
