A BLUE ARCTIC Fox CIRCUMVENTED BY A SEA
BIRD.—" For shame," exclaimed the bird, " you godless
creature I you were going to eat me without saying grace."
Reynard, abashed, folded his paws, turned up his eyes, and
opened his mouth—out flew the bird, " Bother !" said the
fox, "henceforth I shall only say graoe after meals."

LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1864.

- ,OP-- ---

Glimpses are caught again through the frag-

mentary telegrams from America of yet additional

successes on the part of the Confederates. Un-

fortunately the accounts by this mail are

more than ever what we htLve just termed them,

fragmentary. But even coming tons incoherently,
as they do, they are as clearly as possible against the
Federals, and for the Confederates. The most im-

p, rtant announcement of all is the ono to the effect

that Gcneral BANKS, on his retreat from Grand

Xcere to Alexandria, was attacked by the Confede-
'rat"is ro,r4e at Cane river, suffering heavily.
`Thirteen tritusPorto, we are told, ware blown np to

prevent their captura by the rebels. Besides which
it is added, more in detail, that Gen, KIRBY SMITH,
ICI L. cTicial report of the Red River battles,

claims to have taken from BANKS 4,000 prisoners,
2,,500 wounded, 8,000 stand of arms, 35 pieces of

artillery, 2,000 mules, and 230 waggons. Again,
do we not read in another portion of these tele-

gra
/133 that the rebels Under :MAItIVADUKE were

n ported to hare attacked and captured General

SVEELE'S supp!y train of 240 waggons, 7 pieces
of cauncn, and the entire escort of 1,000 naeo

The foremost biate rn en t of all b?ing to the Effect
that the Array of the Potomac advanced on the
3d inst., on the 4th crossing the Rapidan at Ely's,
Jacob's, Culpepper, Germania, and United
States fords. Although, as is stated, the ac-
counts of preliminary operations are very eonfFct-
ing,it is tolerably well proved that the 5 h Now Ylrk
Cavatry, skirmishing off the Orange Court House-
road near Perkins, were driven in with severe loss,
and that Gen n division,which was thrown
forward to feel the rebel position, encountered
the rebels under Gen. A. P. HILL. A fight is
reported to have ther:upon ensucd, in which the
F,derals took 300 prisoners, but lest two guns.
Further particulars, however, may be looked for

...
The Stormontfield Ponds,

Our readers are familiar with the experiment
which has been carried o❑ by the proprietors of
salmon fishing on the Tay during the last 10 or 11
years as to the artificial propagation of salmon.
They are also aware, through our columns, that in
former years the experiment at the Stormontfield
Ponds, in the neighbourhood of Perth, was highly
successful, and that a considerable number of the
marked fish reared in these ponds had been landed
in the Tay, Ferth, and other Scottish rivers.
We paid a visit to the Stormontfield Ponds
on Tuesday, and Mr. Marshall most kindly showed
us all the operations under his most efficient
superintendence. The number of ova put
into the breeding-boxes at the end of 1862
was about 200,000, the fry from which,
in March, April, and May, 1863, numbered upwards
of 200,000, and are now in the smolt state in the
large pond communicating with the Tay. The fish
are leaving daily, and it is expected that the more
advanced portion of them will have all left the pond
by the end of the current month. The smolts are in
a most lively and healthy condition, and on their
keeper throwing into the pond a very small quantity
of liver, with which they are fed, hundreds of them
rise to the surface, and devour the liver most
greedily. It may be mentioned that in the bottom
of the pond there is a great profusion of aquatic
plants, the seed of which came through the breed-
ing•boxes from the Stormontfield lade which com-
municates with the River Tay. Owing to the high
floods in the Tay in the months of November and
December 1863, the supply of ova for the breeding-
boxes was not so large as in the previous years.
The number of ova was about 130,000. They were
hatched on the 31st of March last, and the first de-
velopment of complete fish was on the 6th current.
A good deal of ova is yet in the tadpole state at
the bottom of the breeding boxes, which are in 25
lines, 12 boxes in each ; the boxes in all amount to
300. A. very large smolt-pond is in course of con-
struction, and the proprietors of salmon fishings on
the Tay who contribute to the promotion of the ex-
periment appear to spare no trouble or expense in
the full development of the scheme.—Scotsman,

DANISH AFFAIRS.

In reply to Mr. WHITEsiDE,
Mr. LAYARD said that it was understood that after the
adoption of the armistice on the Dano- German ouestion
no further contributions on the defeated by way ot-makin
good the expenses of the war would be levied. Her Ma-
jesty's Government had seen statezpenrs in the newspapers
recently to the effect that that provision had not been com-
plied with, but no official communication had been received
on the subject.
THE AUSTRIAN SQUADRON.
Sir J. PAKINGTON inquired whether the Govern,
went had received any information that the Austrian
squadron had gone to the Baltic.
Mr. LAYARD said that part of the squadron had
mained at Lisbon, and he presumed it had gone to join ti
other part in the North Sea.
RUSSIA AND CIRCASSIA.
Mr HENNESSY asked whether the Government had
received any information in reference to the proceedings of
the Russian Government in Circassia.
Mr. LAYARD said the Government had received a do-
,patch from Constantinople, in which it was stated that a
large number of Circassians, feeling it impossible to live
under the rule of Russia, had sought protection in Turkey.
Great mortality had taken place. He should have no oh.
jection to produce the papers.

SPORTING NOTES,

The dreaded Bath Meeting, which generally settles the
pretensions of two or three Derby favourites, passed off
without any of the horses being knocked about. Cambus-
can, the only selection that I made last February when at
17 to 1, has now become a rattling favourite ; and those
who acted on my advice at the time can now have good
hedging for any investments they may have made. In-
spector Tanner last Saturday sent down two private detec-
tives to Lord Glasgow's stable to protect General Peel from
the evil designs of that villainous aad unprincipled class of
scoundrels who are always on the alert to get at the Derby
favourite. That the public will get as honest run there
is not the smallest doubt ; and, from the easy manner that
he defeated Paris in the Two Thousand Guineas, the
race is almost a certainty for him, bar accident. I
am as sanguine this year of naming the winner
as I was last, when I actually placed the first, second, and
fourth, and but for the accident to King of the Vale,
I should actually have placed the first four. Queen Ber-
tha, the winner of the Oaks, I also selected when she was
at 50 to 1, and stuck to Lord Clifden for the St. Leger from
week to week for three months through good and evil rep3rt.
If the French party allow Fille de l'Air to run loose she
will beat everything in the Oaks. The filly ran very
different in the French Oaks this week (where she won
easily by six lengths) than she did in the Two Thousand
Guineas. My final selection for the great event will ap-
pear in The Sun of Monday. A FRESH MAN.

quarters , but the gorge of the work is not yet closed, th,
precise manner in which this will be done net haying yet
been decided. It was originally hate...ldea to close the gorge
of each of the Portsciorn forts with iron-casen keeps,
but the absurdity of carrying out such a scheme on a hill
of chalk condemned it, and it is believed to be the inten-
tion now to close each gorge with a barrack for the accom-
modation of the garrison. As digging wells for a water
supply would be a difficult operation on Portsdown, eah
fort contains within the precincts of its parade a large tank,
into which water will be pumped from the valley in front
near Southwick. In the centre of the fort parade is a circu-
lar stone descending 40ft. through the
chalk, ad
which,ainmgazine, which is 50ft. in length,
le staircase,s
to
the
n
17ft. in height, and 29ft. 6in, wide. It is built up of six
courses of brick, every alternate course being of hollow
bricks, and is surrounded externally by a 2 ft. air space.
From this magazine sunken galleries, varying from 2001't.
to 400 ft. in length, and eased by iron gates, lead to the
mortar batteries and the caponnieres in the moat. The
fort underground, in fact, with its circular staircase, maga-
zine, sunken galleries, and massive caponnieres, is equal in
interest with the fort abova ground, and would, perhaps,
be the more interesting of the two to the casual visitor,
We have noticed several errors in the construction of
the fort, but they are solely errors of design, and it is but
sinaple justice to say that the work of the contractor appears
to have been well and faithfully performed.

SPORTING NOTES,

The dreaded Bath Meeting, which generally settles the
pretensions of two or three Derby favourites, passed off
without any of the horses being knocked about. Cambus-
can, the only selection that I made last February when at
17 to 1, has now become a rattling favourite ; and those
who acted on my advice at the time can now have good
hedging for any investments they may have made. In-
spector Tanner last Saturday sent down two private detec-
tives to Lord Glasgow's stable to protect General Peel from
the evil designs of that villainous and unprincipled class of
scoundrels who are always on the alert to get at the Derby
favourites. That the public will get an honest run there
is not the smallest doubt ; and, from the easy manner that
he defeated Paris in the Two Thousand Guineas, the
race is almost a certainty for him, bar accident. I

am as sanguine this year of naming the winner
as I was last, when I actually placed the first, second, and
fourth, and but for the accident to King of the Vale,
I should actually have placed the first four. Queen Ber-
tha, the winner of the Oaks, I also selected when she was
at 50 to 1, and stuck to Lord Clifden for the St. Leger from
week to week for three months through good and evil report.
If the French party allow Fille de l'Air to run loose she
will beat everything in the Oaks. The filly ran very
different in the French Oaks this week (where she won
easily by six lengths) than she did in the Two Thousand
Guineas. My final selection for the great event will ap-
pear in The Sun of Monday. A FRESH MAN.

RUSSIA AND CIRCASSIA.

Mr HENNESSY asked whether the Government had
received any information in reference to the proceedings of
the Russian Government in Circassia.

Mr. LAYARD said the Government had received a de-
spatch from Constantinople, in which it was stated that a
large number of Circassians, feeling it impossible to live
under the rule of Russia, had sought protection in Turkey.
Great mortality had taken place. He should have no ob.
jection to produce the papers.

COLONIAL.

TEA.--There has been a moderate business transacted in
the private market, and quotations are well maintained.
SUGAR.—West India descriptions has been in more re-
quest, and good qualities have advanced 3d to 6d per cwt.
In the refined market rather higher rates are also current.
COFFEE.—There continues to be a fair inquiry for
colonial descriptions, and late prices are well maintained.
a few sales reported, at about former prices.
SALTPETRE.—Business has been inactive, and the few
bargains recorded have led to no material change as regards
prises.

TALLOW.—The market has remained very dull and
quotations for both present and forward delivery exhibit
rather less buoyancy.

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE,

BucKINGBAMSIiiRE7—I-tisutTdeTstood that at the die.
solution of Parliament Mr C. G. Pre, Du one of the sitting
members for the county of Bucks, will retire, and that the
il on. Charles Robert Carington, the eldest son of Lord
c arington, will offer himself as a candidate. There has
generally been a tacit arrangement in the county that it
should be represented by two Conservatives and one Liberal
and accordingly at the last election Mr D sraeli and Mr
Du Pro were returned on the Conservative interest, and Mr
Cavendish on the Liberal interest. On the succession of Mr
Cavendish to the barony of Chesham a few months since,
Mr R. B. Harvey, a third Conservative, was returned with-
out opposition from the Liberals (except the few who sup-
ported Dr Lee), on the understanding that at the next
election, Mr Du Pro retiring, Mr Disraeli and Mr Ilarvey
(who is a brother-in-law of the Duke of Buckingham) shall
be returned on the part of the Consetvatives, and Mr
Catington on the pail of the Liberals.
REIGATE.—It is said that Mr G. Lovc!on Gower, the
sitting member for Reigatia, not af,r himself for ro.•
election after the next dissolution, and that Mr W. A.
Wilkinson will come forward on the Liberal interest. The
Hon. James Stuart Wortley is spoken of ai the coneezva.
tive candidate.

ROME.

Letters from Rome announce that the Pope will
not return to the capital until the 3d September to
hold a Consistory and to celebrate the beatification
of a nun. Doubts are entertained as to whether
Pius IX. will go to Porto d'Anzio, although his
physicians strongly recommend him to do so, as ha
dislikes the shores of that sea, formerly the resort
of every one, but now deserted and abandoned. The
family of the ex-King of Naples has left Rome for
Albano. A part of them, it is thought, will reside
at Castelgandolfo, as the Pope dislikes bring alone.

"Sir,—By yesterday's post I received the annexed cir-
cular in reference to a lottery, and on reading the police

" Mr Charles Hahn, of 12, Langham Street, will give any
further explanation that may be required."
Accompanying the last letter is a prospectus in which,
in heavy cclunans of figures, the extraordinary fortunes that

altogether has a most suspicious appearance.
