ANALYSIS OF THERE GREAT NORTHAMei7ON-
SHI STAKES.
(Concluded from No. 180.)

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—Lord Derby's Uriel, 6 yrs, Bst 34 if in form
on the day, possesses a moderate chance of achieving
triumph, and only a moderate one; bat as •he is out of
work at the present time, he must be considered a very
improbable starter, there being but a short space to pre-
pare him for this race: Mr. Pelmer's Doubt, 6 yrs, 7st
81b, is the only representative of Saunders's powerful
stable; but notwithstanding the rather light weight al-
lotted to her, I doubt her having any chance for this
race. Clothworker, 6 yrs, 7st .71b, I consider makes the
last-named perfectly safe; and although they nearly ran
him off his legs last year, he seems to becoming out in good
form again. TOM Dawson has three animals in the entries,
his own, Mark Tapley, 5 yrs, 7st 61b; Mr. Williams's
Chi 4 Justice, 5 yrs, 7st 51h; and Cyclops, 4 yrs, Set
81b. The last-named requires no consideration what-
ever, as his winning is a perfect impossibility; as to the
other two, it does not seem at all clear which they in-
tend; and, moreover, their chances being so much on .a
par, they are sure to be equally successful with either
one or the other. Tom is always mystifying the public
with his handicap horses; rarely allowing the Simon
Pure-to be known until ho can no longer keep it a se-
cret. The public and stable money are on both; but
which carries the larger amount of the latter I am un-
able to specify. Each stands a very fair chance of
running forward in. the race; and it• is not
at all impossible but that the winner may
be found in one of them, but of this more
anon. Tom Taylor has a trio at work at Bretby, in
Sir Rowland Trenchard, 4 yrs, 7st 61b; Herbert, 6rs,
Tat lib; and Anima filly, 3 yrs, 4st 91b. The filly'is a
perfectly hopeless speculation. Herbert I should fancy
would be the pick of the lot, Sir Rowland Trenchard_
having, at the least, half a stone too much on his back.
Lord Waterford's Cockcrow, 4 yrs, 7st 61b, is a very un-
likely starter, as he will, I presume, be reserved for
Chester. Jim Rogers has a couple of nominations=
Mr. Crawford's Darkie, 5 yrs, let 51b, and Mr. White's
Pluck, 3 yrs, sst 21h. Darkie has a few admirers who
thtnk him good enough to win on this occasion; but,
remembering his exhibition at Newmarket last Octo-
ber, I cannot recommend him as worthy an invest-
ment. Saunders s light weight, Pluck, appeared -.in,
public once last year, when she ran a dead
neat with. Lady Blanche. at Marlborough, for the 10
Sovs. Sweepstakes, and in a deciding heat, beat-the Lady
by half a length. She is well bred, being by Venison
out of Dauntless; but the course is dreadfully against
her and all other three years old. Combatant,6 yrs, 75t,
will never do. Mr. Parkinson's Grand Duke, 4
_Tra,
7st, is in my opinion overrated; he was thought goo&
enough to win the Goodwood Stakes last year, but he
neither did that nor anything else worth doing; and I
doubt his accompishiug anything noticeable at Nor-
thampton. Cohnt Batbyany's aged Jack-in-the Corner
may as well remain there. Stebbing has a couple of
nag* figuring in the entry, namely, his own Knook
Knoll, 4 yrs, Est 10ib, who I believe is
not intended for this bout, and Mr. Morris's
Haresfoot, 4 yrs, 6st 61b, who will represent their inte-
rests. Mr. Drew's Ballet Girl, 5 yrs, 6st 31b, has been
backed by its owner to win him a tidy little stakes; it
being his opinion that she possesses as good a chance as
any in the race; and really Est 31b for a five years old, if
the animal is at all above the grade of a donkey, ought to
oblige her to get somewhere near the mark. Captain
Scott's Mayday, 6 yrs, 6st, the identical weight and age
of Mrs. Tait when she accomplished the feat of winning
the Cesarewitch, will not enable her to go and do like-
wise. Lurd Cliideu's Harpsichord, 4 yrs, 6st, has such
comical legs, that even light weighted as he is, I do not
feel inclined to venture the smallest fraction of cash
upon his chance; and as his Lordship has a couple
of others to represent his interests in this stake, I
presume he will trust one of them in preference. ,
to his musical instrument. The other two are Royalty,
3 yrs, 4st 81b, and Poodle, 3 yrs, 4st 51b; the last-named
probably the starter, who, if he has any running in him,
ought to show it on this occasion. Ingratitude (Mr.
Magenis's), 4 yrs, sst 81b, is an almost certain runner,
but I doubt her powers being good enough to beat her
her comp'titors. Blood Royal (Mr. Thompson s) 3 yrs,
sst 71b, I know nothing about; and Old Rowley, 3 yrs, '
sst 51b, with the Delia colt, 3 yrs, 4st 121 b; Farmer's '
Boy, 3 yrs, 4st 101 b; Surprise, 3 yrs, 4st 91b, and Virago
filly, 3 yrs, 4st, form a light-weighted but hopeless class;
Old Rowley, however, much the best. My present im-
pression is, that CARIBOO, under the guidance of Nat,
will be the winner; and that if he is destined to be de-
feated, it will be by Clothworker, Tom Beltby, or Daw-
son's ho7se.

BIRMINGHAM DISTRICT COURT OF
BANKRUPTCY, March 3.
(Betore Mr. Commissioner BALcuY.)
THE ST_ lIRBRIDGE AND BROMSGROVE BANKS.

The adiourJcilastext.naination of Messrs. Batas
and Wragge was resumed this morning.
Mr. Powell, barrister, of tho Oxford Circuit, appeared
for the assignees; Mr. T. S. James for the bankrupts;
and Mr. Elgie, o Worcester, for various creditors.
It appeared, from a short inquiry into the state of
the Bromsgrove Bank that when it stopped its debts
amounted to 227,8261. 9s. 21, to meet which there were
only 13;000/. During 11i years Mr. F. Raiford had
drawn out of the bank 56,8591. 14s. 10d.
The bankrupt (Mr. F. Ruir.N.rd, M.P.) was now ex-
amined with regard to his S'ev..rate estate. In 1840
he had., drawn out 21,4%51., which he, had spent pan-
cipally property at Belbronghton, 7i here he re-
sided. His household and other personal expenses
were at the rate of about 3,450/. per ar,ai,-,m, a great
portion of which was spent in travelling. He should
fitly one-half. Since the year 1847, then the bask
was insolvent, the amounts he had drawn wore greater
than previously, but his private expenditure bad been
less. Formerly he had received remuneration for the
various offices he held in public companies, but of late
ho had received none, and that accounted for his having
drawn more money than formerly out of the bank. He
bad paid in one sum 4,2671. far expenns incurred in his
election as Member for the city of °rooster. That
was the amount of the agent's bills, but his election alto-
gether had cost him more. _

His HoNoual-I suppose there were other expenses
baynnd agent's charges?—The bankrupt replied that
there were; his personal expenses during the five days
the election lasted might be 200/.1 but hikextra expenses
while in Parliament, as Member for Worcester, were not
more than 1001. per annum. _
By Mr. ELGIE—At the time he put up for Worcester
his account with Glyn's was very satisfactory, and he
was told that his election would cost him. only a mode-
rate amount. If he had known ..that it would coot him
4,0004 or 1,0004 he should not have offered himself.
his Hortoutt—A prudent man would havesaid, " Gen-
tlemen of Worcester) what do you call a moderate sum?
There are many opinions in electioneering as to mode-
rate expenses?"
Mr. ELGIE was anxious to know how the 4,2671. hod
expended at Worcester?—The bankrupt replied that he
Dever examined the bill sent to him. The purity of elec-
tion gemlemen began to open houses in the city, and he
could not himself say how the money was expended.
Mr. Raiford, sen., was allowed to pass without any
question being put to him.
Mr. Povizia. said it was not.the intention of the as-
signees to offer any opposition to the bankrupts passing
their examination, and they would reserve any observa-
tion they might feel it their duty to make until the cer-
tificate meeting.
Mr. Exam would not resist the bankrupt passing, but
he called ugon his Honour to refuse protection to Mr. F.
Rufford. A great deal of money had gone, and the
creditors wished to know where it had gone to. He (Mr.
Elgie) contended that, according to the 255th section of
the Bankruptcy Act, inasmuch as the bankrupt, in the
management of the Bromsgrove Bank, had kept his
books imperfectly, carelessly, and negligently, with the
intent to conceal the true state of his affairs, be was not
entitled to protection. It was found that for several
years no less a sum than 100,000/. had never been posted,
until the bankruptcy, and this could have been for no
other reason than to conceal the state of his affairs from
the parties in the bank:
Mr. JAMES, on the other hand, contended that the
real meaning of the clause to which Mr. Elgie referred
was an intention on the part of a bankrupt to perma-
nently mislead and prevent the true state of his affairs
ever being made known to his creditors. Now here
there was no concealment. The creditors were made
fully acquainted with the bankrupt's affairs. There
might have been some irregularity, but there was no
concealment.

His HONOUR concurred in the ♦iews expressed by Mr.
James, and allowed the baskrupt to pass.

SUBM A RIN E ELEGRAPH.

Ou Monday last, by permission of the directors of the
submarine telegraph between England and France, a se-
ries of interesting experiments -none made by Mr. Reid,
telegraph engineer, of Universit)-street, London, for the
purpose of testing a pair of double-nee de instruments
and two new batteries which he had constructed. One
of these instruments was placediii the eompeny'e offices
at Dover, and the other in the F, etch office at Calais,
with a battery to each. Two of the submarine wires
were then connected with the instruments, and put is
circuit with the batteries. The length of the submerhac
cable in the Channel is about 24 miles, and ebout five
miles of land telegraph on each attic, making in round
numbers a circuit of 68 miles. The battery teat was to
work this distance formed a strong contrast to the
present- buttery- now-4w we,. the length- being-only
4 inches by lf deep, and the weight 11b. 5 rz.,
while the old common battery used on the lines
is 36 inches long, 7f inches wide, 8f inches
deep, and weighs , 641 b. Some of the telgraph
clerks in the office smiled incredulously when Mr. Reid
connected the miniature battery with the instrument,
but were surprised to find the signals to and from Dover
and Calais quite equal to the nignals they were receiving
from their former nattrriei. The next experiment was
for the purpose of testing an improvement in the doub!e-
needle instrument, and will require the utmost stretch
of faith on the part of our readers to believe. It was as
tallowe:—The miniature batteries were removed from
the instruments on each :side of the Channel, and tt
piece of zinc, three-fourths of an inch square, and a piece
of silver to correspond, were then introduced into the
month of the operator at the office in Dover, and instruc-
tions sent to do the same at Callie. The wires, at..
niched to these pieces of metal were then connected with
the instruments, and by this simple means. and by the
simplest of all batteries, the telegraph clerks sent
several messages to and fro from England to France.
The next experiment was similar to this, only
larger piece et z:no and a larger piece of silver were in-
troduced into the mouth of the operator. The result
was an improvement of the signals. These experiments
were witnessed on the Dover side by Captain Belden+,
RN., Major Hammond, and by Messrs. Cheshi,e, Ed-

EXTENSIVE SMUGGLING BY DUTCHMEN.—At the
Liverpool Police Court, yesterday, Alexander Dakkear, chief mate of the ship Romeet, which arrived in that port
on mate
of
Amsterdam, was charged with smuggling
121 b. of cigars ; and Moses Metcalfe, steward of the ship Cor-
nucopia, was charged with smuggling 6ilb. of foreign mann-
factured tobacco, five bottles of brandy, two bottles of Hol.
lands gin, one bottle of rum, a keg containing three gallons
of wine, and three bottles of wine. A number of other
t
charges of a trifling kind were at the same time .brough
against other seamen, but the two former were remanded for
further examination, and in the other cases small penalties
were imposed.

Tai IMPORTSRS OF COTTON.—Last year the im-
porters of cotton lost large sums of money; this year they
are clearing from a halfpenny to three farthings a pound, or
from 20s. to 30a. per bale. When you multiply these gains
by a million, or a million and a halt; they become something
considerable. This great interest never was in a more satis-
factory state than it is at present.
