Handicap.—Castaway made play from the first, was never
caught, and won by two lengths ; nothing was near the second ;
a dead heat for third place.

Column Stakes.—Lord Exeter declared to win with Troi-
lus, who was never headed, and won in a canter by two lengths.

lengths. The last betting was three to lon him.

Glassio w Chronicle.

LISMORE.-Fever and other maladies follow in the
train of the want of the proper necessaries of life ; and so
prevalent and fatal has fever been in Lismore, that the lingt-
keeper Ivrites that the doctor can only give medicines with -
out attendance, and that the affected houses are shunned by
the nearest relatives of the inmates. A distressing case oc-
curred where the father and mother of tour children died, when
the minister of the parish got a woman to take charge of the
orphans. The poor woman died, and no person could be found
to enter the house, though the brother of the deceased offered
a premium to any one who would put the body into a coffin.
At length a fatuous person went into the house and performed
task,—Edistburyli courant,

CONSTANTINOPLE, MARcH 16.—There is again some•
movement here in the political world—at least the diplo-
matic gentlemen are very busy, and the arrival and de-
parture of couriers are more frequent than ever. Lord Pon-
sonby seems inclined to defer.his • departure ; it is affirmed
that he has been desired to do so by his Court. The Noble
Lord is now tit daggers drawn with Mr. Urquhart, and the
dispute ttssumes a serious character. Nobody knows which
of the two is in the right—each of them accuses the othrr
of having neglected his duty and sacrificed the interest of
England through petty selflove. ,Lord Ponsonby, espe-
cially, lays to the charge of Mr. Urquhart, that he did act
consider his situation, but looked on himself in some
manner as Ambassador, which not only has giver
occasion to all sorts of misunderstandings and abuses
in the legation itself, but also in all the intercourse
with other legations, and with the Porte itself. On
the other hand, Mr. Urquhart affirms that he was was sent
hither to take the management of affairs, because Lord
Ponsonby was not sufficiently acquainted with the state of
things in the East, and it was thought necessary at Lon-
don to have somebody on the spot who would be able to
give him information on the subject, and to give his Lord-
ship the necessary impulse, Both may be in the right,
and it is likely that the responsibility of the whole dispute
may fall on Lord Palmerston, who brought such hostile
elements into contact. Great anxiety is felt here for the
issue. It is certain that Mr. Urquhart will not voluntarily
quit the field, and that he hopes to place himself in a posi-
tion from which it may not be easy to dislodge him, for he
intends to settle at Constantinople as a private individual,
and to trade in politics on his own account, in case his Go-
vernment should decide against him in favour of Lont
Ponsonby, and recall him. Nobody can deny that Mr.
Urquhart has rendered important services to his country-
men.

The negotiations for the regulation of a general Tarifr
stands still. It is very strangely affirmed that Lord Pon-
sonby has found means to defeat all the hopes that were
entertained on this subject. This by no means harmonizes

with the notions of the freedom of trade of all countries of
which so much parade is made in London. _ Nrvertheless,

it is true that the British Ambassador now dectsres against
the principle. of fixing equal duties of customs for all na-
tions that trade with the Porte, and endeavours to prove
that it would be bqter if each Stat made a separate treaty
with the Porte. The ground of such a sudden change of
opinion is not known ; but it is to be regretted that it occa-
sions great embarrassment and prejudice to those who
thought that an arrangement would shortly be concluded
which seemed to be agreeable to all nations.
More troops have lately been sent to Asia, whence it is
inferred that the Porte still distrusts Mehemet Xi, and
thinks little of his friendly assurances.
It is believed that the Sultan's portrait, which was lately
removed from all the public buildings, will be shortly re-
placed in them. The Sultan seems to be at a loss in his

political and religious opinions, and to wave between the
old and the new. This is a circumstance much to be re-
gretted, which has great influence on public life, and is very
injurious to the nation, measures being ordered to-day which
are revoked to-morrow, and the contrary. For some time
past this city has been the rendezvous of numerous specu-
lators, who would turn the source of the national wealth to
their own advantage. The Porte•is pestered with projects
of all sorts, the ostensible object of which is to relieve its
great financial embarrasments, but which in the end would
only fill the pockets of the projectors. Happily, the in-
dolence of the Turks does not allow them to go astray in
such a dangerous field, and we may rest assured that the
adepts will derive no other advantage from their experi-
ments than that of having become acquainted with Con-
stantinople and its beautiful situation.—Allgenzeine Zeitung,
