house, oil stores, and chain testing house, where they

36 frigate Dartmouth now lying in an unfinished state,

Portsmouth harbour from the Fire Queen steam yacht.
Previous to leaving the Narcissus Sir Baldwin briefly
addressed the crew, and exhorted them to maintain during
the short time the ship yet remained in commission the
same good character they had so deservedly obtained during
the period they had been under his command, The Admiral
was enthusiastically cheered on leaving the ship. The
Narcissue at 545 p.m., hauled down Rear Admiral Sir B.

age the provisions ran short, and the troops have been for
some time placed on half rations. In fat 33 29, long 43 48,
an abandoned two-masted brig was sighted, and on being
boarded she was found to be waterlogged, and laden with
deals. All her masts were gone, and her mainmast had the
appearance of having been taken out. She appeared to be
about 390 tons, and was from St. Andrew's, Scotland, which
was painted lon her stern, her name having been erased.
During the voyage 13 deaths and one birth occurred on
board, and a soldier died after the arrival of the veseel is

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

GOOD WOOD RACES.—TUESDAY,
The weather to• day was a brilliant as heretofore. De.
spite some threatening clouds, the Ladies' Lawn presented
the same display of beauty as in former years. The racing
was very good. A brilliant finish bttween Anglo-Sazon,
Birch Broom, and Fairwater for the Craven, the former
beating Lord Westmoreland's Derby favourite by a head,
commenced the proceedings. It was imagined that the dry
weather and consequent hardness of the ground would
cause small fields, but this was not the case, neither was
the going as bad as was expected. The Lavant Stakes, from
the absence of Liddington, became more of an open race,
and the French horse, Le Mandarin, coming with a high
reputation, was made the favourite over the very good-
looking Longdown, who, from his rather unprepared look,
was not fancied. He is one of the finest-looking 2-yr-olds
we have yet seen, and though being run to a neck by
Siberia cannot he considered in very good " form," yet we
have no doubt he will prove a good useful horse. The large
number of 40 runners were telegraphed for the Stewards'
Cup-11 More than last year. When we say that the flag
fell exactly one hour and three-quarters behiud the ap-
pointed hour our readers must imagine we have not much
to enter into details of a race which is little better than a
half mile scramble. Suffice it to say that the favourite,
Marigold, getting off in the front rank, won in the last 100
yards, after a fine race. Blair Athol, as was to be expected,
disposed of his three opponents in the Gratwicke with con-
summate ease.
We are authorised by Lord Stamford to state here that
all his horses, with the exception of Procella, were scratched
for their Brighton engagements this day at noon.

6 to 1 Birch Broom, and 10 to 1 any other.
Greenland, with Vacuna at his girths, got away in ad-
vance and made play for the first hundred yards, when the
favourite headed them and came on with a clear lead, which
he retained to half-way up the hill. Here he was joined by
Fairwater and Maurice, who ran nearly in a line into the
bottom, where Birch Broom, who had improved his rear-
ward position, carried his colours in the van ; but at the
distance Anglo-Saxon again obtained a slight advantage,
and won a fine race home by a head, Fairwater being beaten
by half Greenngth for second, Catch-'em Alive was fourth,
close up,land fifth, and Manrioo sixth. Vacuna and
Guardsman were the last two.

she was beaten ; Lady of Coverhxn at the same time
went to the front, closely attended by the favourite, Lady
Abbess, and Overatone, the four running together to the
