This Institution is designed to supply a great national
want, viz., an asylum for the orphan daughters of sailors in
the Royal Navy and Merchants Service and of Marines.
It clothes, maintains, and educates them for domestic
service, and provides a home free of expense for former
inmates while out of situations, thus shielding them from the
temptations they might otherwise be exposed to.
The Committee earnestly APPEAL for CoNTRIBU-
TIONS to meet the increasing applications through the
recent storms and loss ( f life at sea, and to enable them
eventually to obtain premises more commensurate with the
necessities of this great maritime country, which loses 2,000
sailors annually by casualties alone, without including those
who may perish by war.
Subscriptions thankfully received by the bankers, Messrs.
Barclay, Bevan, and Co., Lombard-street, and by the Secre-
tary, at the Offices, No. 77, CornhilL

Epsom running was not his true form. Great was the ap-
plause that thewinner, emphatically the horse of the public,
received. Both ho and his owner were loudly cheered,
and many were tho eager candidates to pat Breadalbano
and shako Mr. Chaplin by the hand.
The Ascot Stakes were a turn up for the fielders in
Tomato's victory, the favourite, Moose, who had made all
the running, giving way as they entered the straight, the
finish being left to the three placed. There was but one
blot in the day's proceedings—the length of the programme
and the placing the important race last but ono on the card.
Why this was done we are at a loss to conceive. It only
tended to make the pleasure on the railway traffic heavier
than it need have been, and detained many who would
gladly have left at an earlier hour.
The Trial Stakes of 5 sovs each, wiih 100 added, for 2-yr-
olds and upwards. Weight for age, with selling allow-
ances and penalties. The New Mile 22 subs.

quine filly, The Proctor, The Opposition, Merry Lass,
Allan-a-Dale, Ostregor, Signalman, Catch 'em Alive, Vigi-

Betting-4 to 1 agst Heir-at-Law, 100 to 15 agst Ambi-
tion, 7 to 1 agst Grace Darling, 8 to 1 agst Allan-a-Dale,
10 to 1 each agst Ostreger, Signalman, and Catch'em Alive,
100 to 6 agst Black Prince, and 20 to 1 each agst Basquine
filly and Saladin.
An admirable start was effected at the first attempt, in
which the 18 competitors came away nearly in a line, but
after running a few strides Signalman was observed with a
slight lead of Heir-at-Law, Grace Darling, Opposition, and
Black Prince, close upwitk whom came Ambition, Amber,
Allan-a-Dale, and the Basquine filly. They ran in those
positions to the old stand, when Signalman was joined by
Heir-at-Law on his left, having Ambition and Black Prince
as his immediate followers to the centre of the Stand, when
Heir-at-Law came out and won very cleverly by half a
length. A length separated the second and third ; Signal-
man was fourth, close up; Amber was fifth, Allan-a-Dale
sixth, and the Basquine colt next. The others were widely
distributed as they passedthe post. Mr.Nightingall claimed
the winner.

The Third Year of the Eleventh Ascot Triennial Stakes of
10 sous each, with 100 added ; colts 101 b ; fillies Bst 51b ;

Mr. G. Bryan's Lady Hylda, Bst 51b (S. Adams 5
Betting-7 to 4on Ely, 3to 1 agst Baragah, and 100 to
8 agst any other.

Privateer, with a clear lead, got away in advance of
Baragah, at whose quarters were Hopper and Ely, and
several lengths in their rear Lady Hylda. In these posi-
tions they came past the Stand, but in making the top turn
Baragah took up the running, and led down the Swinloy-
hill. On reaching tho bottom Ashmall, by keeping his
horse going, increased his lead several lengths, which ad-
vantage ho retained to the three-quarters of a mile post,
where his followers closed up and followed the Malton
favourite into the straight. Here the favourite, steadily
ridden by Custance, quitted his horses and came on .in
attendance upon Baragah to the Stand, when he closed up,
and, heading him half-a-dozen strides from the chair, won
cleverly by a neck. Privateer, who headed Hopper a few
strides from home, finished a bad third.

The Queen's Stand Plate of 200 sovs, added to a Sweep-

Monarque, 7 to 1 agst Wild Agnes, 10 to 1 each agst
Broomielaw, Queen of Trumps, and Lytham, 12 to 1 agst
Sister to Amber, and 100 to 6 agst Gemma.
Several failures preceded the start, in which Queen of
Trumps, Sister to Amber, and Master Archy figured con-
spicuously. When the signal was lowered they left the post
in close company. Queen of Trumps on the extreme right,
and Gemma with Lytham at her side on the Stand side,
were the first away, followed in the centre by Young Mo-
narque, Saccharometer, Neroli, and Broomielaw to the dis-
tance, where the two latter were beaten ; Saccharometer
at the same time came to the front, and splitting the leaders
at the Stand, won in a canter by a couple of lengths.
Gemma finished a head in advance of Lytham, who was
third ; Broomielaw finished fourth, Young Monarque fifth,
Wild Agnes sixth, and Neroli next. The last lot were
Master Archy, Queen of Trumps, and Oppressor.

Betting-6 to 5 agst Janitor, 100 to 30 agst Rustic, 7to
1 agst Mephistopheles, and 8 to 1 agst Chibisa.
After they had proceeded 200 yards, the favourite, lying
wide on the right of his horses, came on with a slight lead
of Macdonald on the far side, the pair being followed by
Mephistopheles, Chibisa, Rustic, and Black Prince to the
enclsuure, where Rustic drew forward and for a brief period
appeared to have the best of it, but Janitor, running with
remarkabl egameness, shook off his opponents as they neared
the post, and won very cleverly by a length. There was a
length and a half between the second and third ; Mephis-
topheles was fourth, close up ; Brimstone was fifth, Black
Prince sixth, and Macdonald seventh. Fairy Footstep and
Mies Harriette finished the last two.

The Gold Vase, given by her Majesty, added to a sweep-
stakes of 20 save each, 3-yr-old; and upwards ; weight

Mr. W. IL Scott's Stanton, aged, Bst 121 b (Osborne) 4
Betting-11 to 10 agst Eltham, sto 2 agst Breeze, and
5 to 1 agst Tartar.

Breeze got away in advance, but on passing the stand
Eltham rushed past him and carried on the running round
the top turn, when Adams indulged him with a pull, and
Breeze was in consequence left with the lead, which she
carried on into the Swinley Mile bottom, where the two were
joined by Stanton, in whose wake was seen Tartar. On
reaching the mile post tho pair closed and raced together to
the road, where the Baron's filly drew slightly away, and
came into the straight half a length in advance of the
favourite, the pair having the race to themselves at the dis-
tance, through the retirement of their followers. Half-way
up the race commenced in earnest, Adams never fairly
getting upon terms with the leader until within a stride or
two of the chair, when he came with a rush, and finished a
splendid race with a dead heat. Tartar was a bad third.
Deciding Heat.—Betting, 7 to 4 on Eltham, who jumped
away in front, and made the running to the first turn, when
he was headed by Breeze, who led into the bottom, when
Eltham drew up and waited upon the Baron's mare until
half-way in the distance ; he then took a slight lead, and
won very cleverly by three-parts of a length.
The Prince of Wales's Stakes of 20 sovs each, h ft, with
500 added, for 3-yr-olds ; colts, Bst 101 b ; fillies, Bst 51b.

Exceller, Miss Hobbit), Lazaretto, and The Swift.

Betting-6 to 4 agst Breadalbano, and 100 to 30 each agst
Guinivere and Olmar.

The last named was the first away, and made the running
to the top turn, when he was headed by Guiniyere,who, in
company with the Caloyer, Olmar, and Lazaretto, made the
running at a short pace into the bottom, when she slipped
her horses and came on with a clean lead for a couple of
lengths to the road, whore the Caloyer and Lazaretto
dropped back, and the leaders were shortly after joined by
the favourite, who came on in waiting into the straight,
when Guinivere was disposed of. This retirement left
Olmar in command, closely attended next the rails by
Breadalbane, who challenged as they approached the stand,
when, getting his head in advance, ho won with tho most
ridiculous ease by eight lengths; a bad third ; the Swift
was fourth, Heir-at-Law fifth, the Caloyer sixth, Lazaretto
seventh, Exceller and Miss Hobble were the last two.
