THE NORTHAMPTON CUP AND THE DISO-
BEDIENT JOCKEYS.

The objection against Gouvieux and Retento was investi
gated yesterday at Epsom, when the following decision was
given :

NORTHAMPTON Cur.—The stewards of N6rthampton
are of opinion that Gouvieux is disqualified, owing to his
jockey, H. Grimshaw, having repeatedly struck Doyle
during the race. That Retento is disqualified owing to
the foul riding of Doyle, and that Shepherdess is thereby
the winner of the Northampton Cup. The stewards fine
H. erimshaw £lO for striking Doyle after their horses had
passed the post, the said fine to be paid to the Bentinck
Charitable Fund.

DREBTOOT AT GRANTHAM.

On Thursday afternoon, the 10th inst., a match came off
at Grantham between Deerfoot, the Indian runner, and
Brighton, Lang, and Jackson, for a purse, containing £5O;
distance six miles, or 36 laps. Decrfoot was attired in his
native costume of an Indian—skirt, guernsey, and pants;
his headdress being a fillet with an eagle's feather project-
ing in front. On the signal being given for the start, Jack-
son took a decided lead, with Lang next, Deerfoot and
Brighton following in their wake. This order Was sus-
tained until the fifth lap, when Lang came up with Jack-
son, and they went through the fifth lap together. Deer-
foot and Brighton followed closely. In the fifteenth lap
Jackson again took the lead, but shortly afterwards Deer-
foot got the start, leading his opponents slightly. The lead
was then alternately taken by Brighbin and Deerfoot, with
Lang next, and Jackson fast losing ground. In the
seventeenth lap Deerfoot maintained his load ; Lang re-
signed, leaving the contest to be decided by Deerfoot and
Brighton, as Jackson was nearly a lap behind. Up to the
twentieth lap Decrfoot and Brighton kept close together,
when the latter gave a sudden bound, and left his opponent
10 or 12 yards behind. At the twenty-eighth lap Deerfoot
obtained the lead, which he had scarcely obtained before
Brighton deprived him of it. At the commencement of the
thirty•sixth or last lap the pair were well together, which
they maintained until half the distance was traversed, when
Deerfoot put on steam, and ran equal in speed to his start
winning by about 20 yards from Brighton, who was more
than that distance in advance of Jackson, the latter hav-
ing managed to run 3.5 laps. The whole distance was tra-
versed in 32 minutes 26 seconds.

IRON 41ASTERS QUART ERLY MEETING.

BIRMINGHAM, THURSDAY EVENING.

The second of the meetings of the ironmasters of this
district for this quarter was held here to•day in the Town-
hall, the floor ~f which was so much crowded from 2 to 3
o'clock that it was almost impossible to move about, and
from the appearance and tone of the assembly no person
unfamiliar with the state he which the iron trade of South
Staffordshire has been for a long period, would have sup •
posed that that was one of extreme depression, Every de-
partment of the trade was fully represented; there were
also representatives from many of the most important firms
interested in the iron trade in other parts of the country,
from some of the exporting houses, and from mercantile
houses who are engaged in the American trade,
The transactions were by no means in keeping with the
magnitude of this assembly ; undoubtedly, they were larger
than those which took place three mOnths ago ; buyers had
evidently more confidence, and prices were, as a necessary
result, firmer ; but as to business, it may safely be said that
anticipation took the place of reality; and that it was in
the expectancy of something in the future there was exhi-
bited so much of that which was called a "better feeling"
on the part of those present. The trade is excited, perhaps
unduly so, on the subject of the advantages which are
likely to accrue from the demand for armour plates for our
navy, but until something definite is known as to require-
ments, nothing can, of course, be done, for there is not a
work in the district which is fit to do more than make speci-
mens, as was done at Lord Dudley's, and has been done, wo
believe, at the Shrubbery Ironworks—Messrs. G. B. Thor.
neycroft and Co. 'The leading firms take little concern in
the excitement referred to. They are waiting for results
—that is, what strength of plates it is which will be re-
quired ; until that is known it is not likely that men who
have capital to lose will lay themselves out for the manufac-
ture by the expenditure of some £12,000 or £15,000 in the
construction of new works, with all the requisite machi-
nery ; but that there are several firms prepared to do so as
soon as the Board of Admiralty has made up its mind there
can be no doubt.

As has been stated, the transactions to-day were on a
moderate scale, but, upon the whole, it was a more satisfac-
tory quarter-day than was expected ; and tho North Staf-
fordshire ironmasters who were present intimated that they
had had a good many orders in of late from America.
Pig-iron was in steady demand to-day at the full prices
of the January quarter-day, which was more than was ex-
pected a month ago. _ _

The assembly dispersed late. A large party of the mem-
bers of the association dined afterwards at the Hen and
Chickens Hotel, their new quarters since the " Royal" was
closed.

" Cardinal Morlot," says the Bulletin de Paris,
"is about to proceed to Rome. He is said to be charged
with a mission from the Emperor."
