Su far as the trials have gone it would appear that the
three best anchors are 'frotinan'a, Honthar a, end' t'
a" 8412 d, in the order here phcerl. Tne conentr-
tee, honour, have very properly determined nut to give
any .pinion as to their n,rits until the whole series of
experiments are concluded.
The conduct of the committee individually has been
the admiration of all parties interested in the result of
these important experiments.. They appear to vie with..
each other in endeavouring to ascertain, without favour
to any one, the qualities of each anchor. The c-airman,
Captain the Ron. Montagu Stopford, was moat indefa-
tigable in seeing that the gear was properly affixed to
the anchors, and so anjusted as to cause an equal strain
on each. Much praise is also due to Mr. J. Aylen, the
master•attendant, for the able manner in which the
whole apparatus for the trials has been planned. On
lionday the first series of experiments will to brought
to a close.

As soon as the tides will permit, and the necessary
arrangements are completed, the second st-ries of trials
will take place on the beach at Garrison MAUL

In consegone° of the great difference of weight,
amounting to 75 per cent. in favour of the Admiralty
anchor, the committee suggested that Trotman's anchor
should be tried against au Admiralty anchor of 35 cwt.
2 qrs. In this case at first trialou a long scope ot
eab.e, Trotinan's was dragged by the Admiralty anchor

On the second trial, at short stay, Trotman's anchor
was tripped out of the ground at 25 ft. total distance from
first position, holding firmly to the last foot of ground.
['he total distance dragg..d by the Admiralty anchor was
10 ft. if in., being a oistauce of 4 ft. 4 in. The Ad-
miralty was drawn during the second experiment. With
this terminated the trial of anchors on dry land. On
Friday, the 16th inv.. the second series of trials will
commence on the beach at the back garrison.
Judging from the results attained by the first series
of experiments, it would appear that Trotman's im-
proved Porter's anchor possesses fully 25 pvr cent. more
holding properties on dry land than any other with
which it has been tried. Mr. Trotman feels confident
that similar results will attend the subsequent trials on
the beach and afloat. Should such be the case, which
we confidently expect, the labours of the committee will
be repaid in the feeling satisfaction of having rendered
to the maritime interests of this country, and to hu-
manity generally, a great boon in an improved and
truly efficient anchor, formed on purely scientific prin-
ciples worthy of the age in which we live. It is impos-
sible to overrate the importance of these experiments
(the first series of which have been brought to a close),
their tendency being the preservation of life and
property.

SPORTING NOTES.
No. COLXIIE.
TUE DERBY (ii? 1853.

• TO THE EDITOR OF THE BUN.
'Bx .-16 has for several years been a rule of mine to
_publish my remarks on the candidates for primary
honours for the Derby at the 'cut ayear before the time
set down for its decision, and also what I consider the
best y.arlings for the Derby following. This plan,
which I started some years ago, more for my own amuse-
ment than anybody else, seemed to take the attention of
a portion of the sporting wed, and being the only
writer •of such early remarks the public now
look as regularly for the appearance of them,
about - the, usual time, as they would for any other
fixture: consequently it is now expected of me to
furnish my team for the Derby of 1853, and
my first selection for that of 1854—the latter, in my
opinion, somewhat uncslted-for. These early remarks
of Mine have, always *been tolerably successful. Two
year atol :for instance, in my first selection for the
Dt-rls-611 the present year, I gave four horses as being
the ntoit prominent rind promising foals of 1849; two of
thent, 'flowerer, went all to pic.e.s, the other two, Daniel
O'Rourke and Claverhouse, ran flist and last in the
great race at Epsom, the last-named being amiss, to
which bis inglorious position may be assigned.
On the 11th of June Isst year I gave the following as
the most attractive foals of 1850:—Lord Fauconberg,
Phryue colt (now called The Reiver), Bretik-o'-day Boy,
Barbells colt (now called Vanderdecken), Joannina
colt, Friar Tuck, Constantine, and one or two others,
who did not so much as enter for the race. Of this lot

Tax REIVER hos already proved his quality:being one
of the bast horses of the day, and about the best in
next year's Derby. Unlike bis brother, he stands rather
firm then otherwise on his legs, has larger and more
muscular quarters, posscsaing great leverage, and at
present rises fifteen bands two inches and a half.
VANDERDECREN I ECG very much afraid is not likely
to equal his brother the Flying Dutchman in any re-
spect, although, as he has never been prepared yet, it is
difficult to judge of his merits. He is a fine looking
horse, and I shall stand by him until I have ocular
demonstration of his incapacity on a hilly course.
Friar Tuck is already, and I am very much afraid the
Jeannine colt will be, a failure; and I cannot say that I
entertain a very superior opinion of Constantine, as his
legs are not the best in "hull creation."

Lord Faueonberg's only appearance in public was not
S !e_„ y. crack affair, but as he was not thoroughly up to
his work, if his running on that occasion is taken by any
one as a criterion of his merits, he will find by his future
performance that he has committed a notable blunder—
nevertheless, he will not win the Derby.
Of all the outsiders commend me to BREAK-O'DAY
BOY, who, in all probability, will turn out a horse of the
Barbarian stamp.
John Scott's hopes it is supposed are centered in West
Australian and littrwortb; the for,pier is unlikely to
aceJmplisii anything,
and the latter—a stalky looking
gives every
animal—is destined probably to do a great deal, as he
sign of filling up satisfactorily.
Lord Egliuton's lot will be represented, as far as pre-
sent appeerforces speak, by Vanderdecken, Strait Jacket
being a particularly valueless brute; and for this race,
Eryethon. Sir Walter, and Cusworth are no better.

potations" to work all the steam oat of the filly, ; herve;
but little doubt but that she will be a failure altogether
neat year.
Ciueas, a horse capable of great improvement, is
suie to be an immense favourite between now and thp
day; but as the absolu'e winner of the " great go," I
cannot for an instant take his chance into consideration.
General Anson's nominations are completely unfor-
tunate; as ere Messrs. E. it Clarke's, Carow's Drink-
ald's, I), lauiere'N Gratwicke's (Satinghourne said 0) be
his best, therefore bad is the best), C-i-evi Jacqut,'ll
(Angle-S,,xon exc. p ed), LumLey's, and Th,mpson's.
Stone Plover is not equal to his brother SilitCD, and
therefore likely to do noihing in this race.
Peggy gives no sign of ever being equal to her sister
Nancy.
Should Lord Caledon'a colt by Simoom, out of For-
tr, sa, train on, we may have a second edition of the
Barbarian game, With this his bah-brother; he is a fine
snowy colt, and possesses many dangerous-lotling
points.
Lord Clifdcn will find that Glengarry will never stand
training; at least I think so. _ _

Loreibnby'a c.Juple, Umbriel and Hobbyborze, I
fancy will turn out good, but not good enough for this
race.

Dixon imagines, I believe, that he has got a good
horse in his colt out of Sextus. _ _ _

Of Lord Exeter's string, Filbert and Cobnut aro
supposed to be the best, but they are a queer lot
altogether.
Tamerlane is good enough to win such races as that
at Hampton, but gaits out of the pale at Epsom.
Miss Whip's best produce is this year to be found in
Doublothong ; there is no hope, however, for Lord
Glasgow.
All Sir Joseph Hawley's nominations, scattered here,
there and everywhere, are failures, the lot not being
worth a thousand.

There has been some talk of To.vton in the north, but
I think his hops rest entirely on talk.
ORESTES, as fine a specimen of the Orlando blood as
any one could wish to see, is a very dangerous looking
animal, though scarcely of the sort to be classed with
The Reiver.

CHEDDAR I have considerable doubts about ; that
the horse possesses considerable speed is evident to every
one who witnessed his running at Ascot, but I consider
ho is deficient in that great requisite, heart. As an
outsider, however, his chance is not so very forlorn.
The best of dr. Payne 's nominations, I expect, is
Pindus.
Lord Ribblesdale's interest, I fancy, will be based on
TALEotinn, wh.) is uncommonly like his brother Tad-
mor, and I think it not at all improbable he may tarn
out just as well.
The Goodwood stable will no doubt send forth WIL-
LIAM RUFUS as their champion, who is some such au-
othvv animal as his brother the Conqueror was.
Rataplan and Dupe are the only other two worth men-
tioning: the former is at present out of condition,
and the latter I cannot find out what he is doing, or
what sort of an animal he is in (articular,
Such are my present opinions of the candidates for
and on the outside list in-
the possession of the Derby laurels of 1853. Among the
present favourites, of course it a ill t o seen that my pre-
ference is for Ins REIVER,
dines to BREAK O'DAY ISOY, TALFOCRD, and the For•
tress colt; these nutnes that are printed in cwitsla being
moat likely to furnisb the future favourites, and the
leading horses in the race.
The entry for the Darby. of 1854 closes today, con_
sequently I shall defer giving my opinion of the most
promising foals of last ) ear until hey° ascertained that
tae are entered.--I Ku). .".•

babbler in the I.nd. Seven hundred pr fessed prostitutes in
Liverpool are now, I have been informe, preparing to pre-
sent their petittons, through Hugh M•Neile, to our gracious
Sovereign, for the immediate suppression of nunneries, which
I firmly believie ob.uld have suited Elizabeth's taste, but
what Victoria may do with the sacred document I cannot
ssy ; but this I state, that no slaves in any quarter of the
globe suffer the same reproach, alai endure such privations
and punishments, as the Catholics of the. British empire(l)"

record the demise of Mr. Sergeant Chadwick Jones, for many
years well known to the public. He formerly bad an ex-
tensive practice at the Old Baily bar, which he auando

MINING INTELLIGENCE.
(From ;he Alining Journal of this day.)
There lass been considerably less business doing this
week in shares, owing chit fly to the general elEciton,
and the Excitement naturally occasioned thereby. Divi-
dt nd shares, however, are in demand, and prices. are
well maintained. South Frances have advanced from
137 to 142, 145; West Caradon, from 145 to 160; Bas-
set, from 475 to 500. Bedford United, Great Polgooth,
Merllyn, South Tamar, and Tincroft are steady in price,
and business doing in all of them. Clive, Kilbricken,
Vale of Towy, Harriett, Trevelyan, and West Wheal
Alfred, are in fair request. Doubtless the present state
of the money, as well as metal market, will tend to pro-
mote large dealings, not only in good dividend lair),
but likewise those of a productive character, indicating
their approach towards the same enviable result.
