THIS DAY.

At an early hour this morning the General, accompanied
by his sons and the members of his suit, left Stafford House
to visit the extensive brewery of Messrs. Barclay and
Perkins, Bankside. Although the hour was somewhat
early, there were crowds assembled in various parts, who
lustily cheered the General as he passed along.
On arriving at Messrs. Barclay and Perkins' premises
General Garibaldi was received by the leading mem-
bers of the firm, and conducted through the exten-
sive establishment, which appeared to excite his ut-
most astonishment. Of course the General tasted
the quality of the world• renowned beverage manu-
factured on the premises, and returned thanks for the great
pleasure the visit afforded him. The workmen, with their
wives and families, were all assembled to witness the
arrival and departure of the General, and on this occasion
the men appeared gallantly to give way to the fair sex in
struggling for the honour of shaking hands with the
General.

On the General leaving the premises, the utmost enthu-
siasm was manifested inside and outside the establishment,
and as the carriage drove away, the cheering was general
and hearty—the very reverse of the reception that General
Haynau, the Austrian woman-flogger, met with when he
visited the establishment some years ego.
Very shortly after the return of the General to Stafford-
house, he again left, with hie attendants, for the Crystal
Palace, to receive the Italian's address. The crowd in
front of the residence of the Duke of Sutherland had by this
time become very numerous, and the usual demonstrations
greeted the General when his carriage proceeded on its way
to the railway station.
SYDENMAIf, Saturday, 11 o'clock.

The concert and presentation at the Crystal Palace will
be a great success. The attendance is already enormous.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET CRAVEN MEETING.

FRIDAY.

The concluding day's sport at the Craven was an im-
provement upon the general ctiaractcr of the racing on the
wind-up of the first meeting at Newmarket. The same
magnificent weather continued, and the first of the seven

items being run on the July Course beyond the dip, neces-
sitated an early departure, especially as the Queen's Plate
was appointed for 11.35. Usually this race has been a fatal
one for backers, who frequently found an animal upon
whom extravagant odds were laid, as for instance Carbi-
neer. Last Spring was an exception to the rule, Asteroid
landing the long odds of 8 to 1 laid on him, whilst Win-
grave's success on the present occasion will give " the
talent" more confidence for this long race which has now
been won by Wells twice in succession. The baker's dozen
for the Handicap Plate produced a hot favourite in the
Newmarket horse Antoinette, who won after a capital
struggle with Chip of the Old Block. The Pork Stakes
brought out a quartette who, though not animals
with first-class diplomas, have at various times distin-
guished themselves. The winner, a colt by King Tom, out
of Giraff,, having late in last season defeated Carnival. In
the succeeding two reces the " dark blue and yellow cap '
of Baron Rothschild were carried in the van; and after
War Dance had walked over for the 25 sovs. Sweepstakes,
another of " the Baron's" animals were made favourite for
the last event, and was only beaten a head from Hurrah.
