NORTH NORTHAMPTONSHIRE

• There has been a re-action here—a decided re-action—
but it is in favour of Reform. At the last election Mr.
Hanbury, the Liberal candidate was about 600 at the bot-
tom of the poll, while Lord Milton, without a complete re-
turn from his stronghold (Peterborough), is but 174 behind,
and, we doubt not, with Peterborough to the close, will be
found to be equal at least to his Tory opponent, Lord Maid-
stone. At Wellingborough district, which is chiefly com-
posed of independent freeholders, Mr. Hanbury had but a
majority of 7 on the gross poll, while Lord Milton already
numbers a majority of 105, which will be greatly increased
this day. Circumstances, too, have been decidedly in favour
of the Tories, who had been canvassing sometime before
Lord Milton was prevailed upon by a requisition, signed by
1,000 electors, to come forward. Many gave thoughtless
promises, in ignorance that his Lordship would start. We
are aware of several gentlemen in London who were so im-
prudent as to thus commit themselves, and who have express-
ed their deep regret that a sense of honour compelled them
to vote against their own principles and wishes. We have
received the following from Mr. Northhouse, Lord Milton's
London agent :

BELFAST ELECTION.

(From a Second Edition of the Northern Whig.)
SATURDAY, AUG. 5, HALF PAST THREE.
FINAL GROSS POLL.

Mr. Gibson • 941
Lord Belfast . . 922
Mr. Emerson Tennent . . 901
Mr. Dunbar • . 869
Mr. Gibson's majority over Mr. Dunbar, 72 ; over Mr.
Emerson Tennent, 40.—Lord Belfast's majority over Mr.
Dunbar, 53 ; over Mr. Emerson Tennent, 21.—Hurra for
the Queen and Reform !I !
This result of the struggle which has just closed, is a
great and glorious triumph. It is honourable to the elec-
tors of Belfast ; and will be hailed with enthusiasm by
the friends of liberty, and the supporters of the Queen,
throughout the United Kingdom.
• The victory is, in every way, highly important. In a
numerous constituency—i❑ the metropolis of Protestant
Ulster—with a confident and well-organised Tory force, the
cause of Toryism was openly and emphatically staked upon
the issue, at the hustings, by the Tory candidates. The
bAttle has been now fought ; and we have to congratulate
the men of Belfast, and their brother Reformers of the
United Kingdom, upon the brilliant and glorious victory
which has been aclaieved.

The late Tory Members have been unseated, and two
steady Reformers are now Members for Belfast !
Hurra for Belfast and Gibson ; and God save the Queen !

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sir,—Last Sunday, while surveying the exterior of
Windsor Castle, I observed a crowd of persons collected by
a door-way, which on inquiry I found led to the State
apartments. Immediately afterwards the doors opened,
and in I walked with about 100 other persons, first, however,
paying to a man within, Is. fora catalogue. We all walked
through the apartments, were allowed to glance at the pic-
tures, pistols, tapestry, &c., hung there. I was a little
surprised on leaving, that a tacit demand was made upon the
pockets of myself and of every individual present. A half-
a-crown appeared to be the amount thus extorted by the
royal servant for showing the lions of the castle. I believe I
was the only person who paid so small a fee as is., and 1
should suppose that the man's day's work every Sunday does
not yield him less certainly than 10/. Two questions are
suggested by the little incident under consideration. Does
it not derogate from the true dignity of her Majesty that
one of her servants should let a part of the royal residence
fat hire on the Sabbath? Is not the sacredness of the Sunday
alleged as the ground of the public's exclusion from the
British Museum and the National Gallery ? I doubt not,
Sir, that it is the money qualification which makes looking at
pictures, &c., at Windsor, a moral gratification ; whilst view-
ing the masterpieces of art in London, is a crime against
which the Legislature has set its forbidding seal on.
I am, Sir,
AN ARTIZAN.

The settling for Goodwood Races took place to-day, and
occupied the entire attention of a crowded room until six
o'clock ; some of the accounts were very heavy, and not a few
were left open through the inconsiderate ab.sence of several
persons who had made books on the different events of the
week. Just before the room closed a few bats were made on
the Sr. Leger, 7 to 2 against Cardinal l'uff, and to to 1
against the Doctor having been taken eagerly by " influential"
speculators. A few small sums were laid out upon Robin
flood colt, Abraham Newland, and Prime Warden, but we did
not perceive any disposition to back any of the 12 to 1 horses.

AQUATICS.
THE SILVER CUPS MATCH.
Yesterday the gentlemen of the Leander Club showed their
mastery over the other amateurs, but, unfortunately, in their
desire for pre-eminence it terminated uncomfortably, and that
too in their own camp. The Leander gentlemen had been
very desirous of getting this once beautiful oars wager up in
something like style on this occasion, and it is much to be re-
gretted that anything should have occurred to detract from the
beauty of such rowing as that of yesterday. The. Leander
crew have been so conspicuous for their adherence to fair play,
and for their very excellent and honourable decisions in most
matches, that they have stood alone, and it is a pity that any
passing cloud should have dimmed their brightness. The
cups were given for gentlemen amateurs, seven pair of oars,
in one heat, from the buoys oft the Red House to the Suspen-
sion Bridge at Hammersmith. There were tax members of
the great Leander Club in the match, and the others were
composed of gentlemen who did not belong to any club. The
candidates drew for lots, and, although the seven pair were
entered, yet only five contended, the others considering they
stood but little or no chance. The start took place at twenty-
seven minutes and a half past five. Mr. Hood had the best
station, and in going off they all rowed admirably; but white
and scarlet went considerably a-head of the others. In nearing
Battersea Bridge scarlet was drawing hard upon white, and in
shooting through the arch they came nearly alongside. It
was said by a gentleman, who alleges to have seen it, that Mr.
Dalgleish laid hold of Mr. Wood's boat and pushed her astern,
but this is denied by the other party. The boats rowed to
Hammersmith, and scarlet was there first by about a minute.
The whole of the boats came in thus :—Mr. Layton and Mr.
Dalgleish, scarlet ; Mr. Wood and Mr. Howard, white ; Mr.
Bishop and Mr. Waugh, azure; Mr. Jay and Mr. Franklin,
pink ; Mr. Herneyman and Mr. Blakency, green. The dis-
pute is referred to Mr. Lewis, who is umpire. The decision
i
will be given in a few days. The distance was performed ii
thirty-four minutes.

wheeled into line, took open order, and awaited the arrival of
the Commander-in-Chief. A little after ten o'clock, the
Commander-in-Chief, attended by his Staff, and accompanied
by Field-Marshal the Duke of Wellington and several general
officers, arrived on the ground, and took his station in front
of the centre of the line, with the Duke of Wellington 011
his right. The brigade then presented arms. The Corn-
wander-in-Chief, escorted by a grand military cortege, rode
to the right of the line, passed down the front and up t"
rear, the bands playing martial airs, and subsequently took 01?
his original station. The brigade then took close order,
wheeled back into open column, and marched past the re-
viewing officer in slow and quick time, the officers saluting al
they passed, and took up their position on their origin°,
ground. The brigade then proceeded to perform a variety
evolutions and manoeuvres, and ended by firing a genera'
