TURKEY.

The new Grand Viceroy is the personal enemy of
the Viceroy of Egypt, and it is thought in conse-
quence that before long circumstances will arise to
cause a rupture between the Porte and the
Court of Cairo. The revolt which has
broken out in Syria and Mesopotamia assumes
a threatening aspect. The Arabs have organized a
system of pillage on a large scale; the caravans, as
well as the vessels in the Euphrates and Tigris, are
rifled. The Sheik Montefesch has put himself
at the head of thousands of Bedouins, of the tribe
of Oms, and has proceeded as far as the gates of
Bagdad. An English ship has been arrested at Bus-
sorah, and the English missionaries who formed part
of the crew taken prisoners, for whom the Arabs
demanded a heavy ransom ; but the English Consul
having strongly protested against such a proceeding,
the Arabs released both the ♦essel and the mission-
aries. Four other vessels were arrested on the Tigris,
not far from hut. The number of insurgent Be-
douins daily increases, and the Sbeik Jobal has joined
them. The Arabs are precipitating themselves on
the plains of Mesopotamia like a hurricane. There
were rumours of an outbreak in Bagdad. It is
necessary that Turkey should put forth all her
power to suppress these revolutionary proceedings.

SPURTING NOTES.

No. CCCXL.
EPSOM AUTUMN MEETING.

I Mr. Dorling, as usual, successful in all he undertakes,
has given us for to-morrow a strong list of sport. It will
commence at half-past twelve with the Match between
Abdallah and the Greek. At one, the Paddock Ste.kes
of 3 soya. each, 25 added (over the mile and a-paarter
course), will be run.
At half-past one, we have the first stake of any note
marked for decision, namely, the Beddington Stal.tes of
100 sovs., added to a Handicap Sweepstakes of 1,0 sovs.
each, half-forfeit if declared by nine o'cicck this evening
(one mile). It is impossible at the present monaent
to say what will start, but it seems the list will include
the top and bottom weights, who now hold the positions
of first and second favourites. NotwithstanAing Exact's
performance at Newmarket, winning as she did, cleverly,
with Bst 81h up, I cannot fancy that, with the stiff finish
at E; soul, she can carry 9st successfully. Little David,
Lady Louisa, Gossip, and Echelbert have no attractions
for me. Beverlac and Corybantea, at 7st Blb each,
are more suited to the course than any of those
whose names I have just now given. Miss Agnes
at 7st 51b, end Miss Tennyson at 7st 41b, are of no use
here. Michas Imes Maid, after the curious proceedings
about her which took place at Newmarket, I shall de-
cline meddling with. Valour will, I believe, give way
to his stable companion, Charming Woman. Psaltery
is a runner, more I know not. Dioracdia, I should say,
is a very doubtful runner. Ellen, and the Faugh-a-
Ballagh filly, I think, aro made safe by the Charming
Woman, who at 6st 71b ought to run very forward.
Lady Flora, Shropshire Lass, and Mrs. John arc hope-
less. Hatchet has many friends, and I think the ground
and distance aro in his favour. At Est 61b he is not
overweighted ; neither is Littlo Swift, at Est 41b. Frenzy
at sst 121 b, and Tobolski, at sst 71b, aro let loose ; the
running of the former, however, being much the best.
Tobolski's only previous performance was running a
bad fourth, and last to Pride, at Egham. The race,
in my opinion, will be with CHARMING WOMAN,
Hatchet, Little Swift, and FRENZY: the first and last
named for choice. The horses entrusted with the prin-
cipal amount of the cash for this race, are Tobolski,
Exact, and Hatchet. Pelion, Cheddar, atty Darling,
Amazon, Eulogist, Ireland's Eye, Hobby Horse, Alti-
tude, and Fcramorz, have paid forfeit.
The Epsom Autumn Handicap will be run at a quarter
past two, and is over the Now Derby Course. The field
will probably comprise Hobble Noble, Candlewick, the
Proctor, Allegro, Dulcet, Don Pedro, Vermuth. Tested,
the Varmint, Plunistead, and one of Lord Clifden'a.
The running of Suarry and Chief Justice is doubtful.
The merits of the animals I need not discuss at length,
but merely state that the race. in my opinion, will be
confined at the finish to the Varmint, Candlewick, and
Tested—the VARMINT, if that is Dawson's intended, or
Tested, in all likelihood, proving to be the winner.
The Bentinck Plate in its result will depend so much
on the previous races that I shall not attempt a selection
of the winner. This stake brings the day's sport to a
conclusion.

THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF.
P.S,—Allegro is in great force for tho Autumn Han-
dicap.
