MESSRS. HOWARD AND CLINTON'S GREATEST AND
MOST DECISIVE VICTORY.—Ever since the Cesarewitch,
the Knight of the Shire has enjoyed the soubriquet of
Messrs. Howard and Clinton's " Pot." It was a standard
joke in the ring before starting, " What's the odds
against Howard and Clinton ?" This was because we
stood on him alone fot the Cesarewitch till the last
moment, when, finding that it was not his day,
we, on the Monday before the race, changed our
tip to Weathorgage or Lady Evelyn by public
advertiaemeat. But we are proud, we are exces-
sively elated, to find that we won so clearly, so deci-
sively. We positively picked him as the decisive and
only winner of the Cambridgeshire. We are daily
insulted by envious spiteful slanders, either by men who
would grovel in the dirt to curry favor with us, and who
vainly endeavour to imitate us; or by men who, like the
viper, vainly endeavour to injure the file. This time,
however, though despising the trouble, we did take
the precautions, and on Saturday, in an interview which
we had with the Editor of Bell's Life, respecting an
erroneous statement acknowledged to have been in-
serted in error, and which will be contradicted next
week, we left in his hands a copy of our first, last, and
only printed circular or tip, (excepting the one issued
mouths back botore the entries, when at 100 to I wo
gave Hobble Noble.) Well, in the above-mentioned
circular, after giving our reasons for picking out the
Knight as the winner, we then placed them thus, as wo
calculated they would run:—
Knight of the Shire 1
Aaael 2
Convulsion 3
[The Knight was then at 20 and 15 to 1. Lot this
speak for itself.] The steeple-chase season will far out-
shine our previous successes. Now, don't forget our
words. Wo have reason to know that not even
the proverbial uncertainty of horse-flesh will pre-
vent certain monied certainties coming off ; but we
shall have them on the hip in every case. Fee for
the season, two guineas. We want no one to join
our list till he is satisfied by direct reference to subscri li
-
bers (which we will gladly afford) what we, our state-
ments, and our information are worth. Address H. and
C., Post-office, Coventry- street, Soho. Post-office orders
payable to Henry Howard. P.S. The money won by
our subscribers through our investments amounting to
2,9671. 10s., will be forwarded (less commission) on re-
ceiving instructions. P.P.S. Thursday—lmportant No-
tice,—Past success opens the paths to future victories—
we never promise till we are nearly certain of fulfilling
our promise—we have it direct from the stable that they
are going in for an immense " pot " on the Epsom Au-
tumn Handicap—that it is as near an approach to a cer-
tainty as was the case of Adine—the money is on, but
with caution our subscribers can get on a little now at
20 to 1.

To Subscribers. Per tentage comes in remarkably
slow; is it possible that we have to complain of this on
such an occasion—bah I don't let us have to remark
again on this subject.

CoLLISION ON THE OXFORD, WORCESTER, AND
WOLVERHAMPTON RAILWAY.—An accident occurred
on Monday to the up mail train from Bristol to Bir-
mingham, near to the goods station of the Oxford,
Worcester, and Wolverhampton Railway Company at
Worcester, arising from gross negligence. By a recent
arrangement part of the Bristol and Birmingham trains
leave the Midland line at Abbott's Wood, and traverse
the loop line of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolver-
hampton Company to Worcester, joining the Midland
line at Stoke. The mail train due at Worcester at ten
o'clock arrived at its proper time last night, but on
leaving the station, at about 200 yards beyond it, while
going at the rate of 10 or 12 miles an hour, ran into
two trucks which had been left upon the line. There
was but one carriage to the train, and this contained
but few passengers, who luckily escaped unhurt. It
appeared that in removing the waggons the men had
shunted the two trucks upon the main line, and then
went home to supper and forgot them. The men were
yesterday taken before a magistrate, and, in their de-
fence said that they had been told to put the trucks
there, and that they did not know anything about the
line. One was fined :in the penalty of 1/. and ss. costs,
or 14 days' hard labour; and the other in 10i. and ss.
costs, or 7 days' hard labour. The money was paid.
TESTIMONIAL TO RALPH BERNAL, Esq.—The liberal
electors of the city of Rochester, anxious to testify their
admiration and esteem for their late respected member,
Ralph Bernal, Esq., recently entered into a subscription
for the purpose of presenting him with a piece of plate.
The selection has been a magnificent centre-piece, form-
ing a candelabra. It stands three feet high, having six
branches, beneath which are three figures, representing
Commerce, Justice, and Wisdom. The inscription is as
folio ws:—" Presented to Ralph Bernal, Esq., by the
liberal electors and inhabitants of the city of Rochester,
as a testimonial of their estimation of the many services
rendered to his country by his unflinching advocacy of
civil and religious liberty, free trade, and parliamentary
reform, throughout a long senatorial career of thirty-two
pears, during twenty-five of which he most assidaouslY
a
attended to the interests of their ancient city, their
representative in parliament." On one side of thes
base
are engraven the arms of the hon. gentleman, 'y' with the
motto " Spes et Fortitude," and on the other the crest,
both of which are admirably executed. The weight of
it is 281 ounces; the cost nearly '2OOl.

metropolis, even a larger proportion of this nuisance
would be found. Farm-yards, green fields, natural food,
and pure air aro indispensable to the manufacture of
wholesome milk. Railways render inexcusable the con-
tinuance of keeping animals in foul air, whose milk
under such circumstances, is a diseased secretion, injuri-
ous, more or has, to the public health.
ABOLITION OF CHANCERY OFFICE.'.—From this

patentee of the subpoena office, the clerk of affidavits, the as-
sistant-clerk of affidavits, the second assistant-clerk of affi •
davits, the clerk of reports, the doorkeeper of the Court of

Chancery.
