business of sugar refiners and merchants in sugars in Great
Britain, Ireland, France, and Belgium, and if so resolved
by the shareholders in any other country.
The enormouswealth of the great sugar refining establish-
ments in France is well known. The profits of the business,
when undertaken on a large scale, have been demonstrated
beyond dispute by the fortunes which they have realised
for their proprietors. While so great and so increasing is
the demand for sugar that many of these establishments
are compelled to work by night as well as by day. It has
been computed that the mere increase in the demand is
sufficient to employ a now refinery on the largest scale.
The consumption in England is 500,000 tons per annum ;
and is so largely on the increase that during the last year
50,000 tons refined sugar have been imported from the
Continent into London. London is the great entrepot of
colonial raw sugar, and Paris of raw beet-root sugar. In
France the consumption is about 250,000 tons.
in these countries all experience of the manufacture have
proved that the expenses and general charges of working
decrease in an inverse ratio to the extent on which the
operations are conducted. Thus, in establishments turning
out 10,000 tons per annum, the charges amount to from 3s.
3d. to 3s. 6d. per cwt. of raw sugar; while in an establish-
ment of the magnitude proposed by this company, and with
the latest improvements in machinery, the charges will be
only 2s. 6d. per cwt., given an advantage of from 9d. to is.
per cwt., which would be equivalent to an increase of divi-
dend of 7i to 10 per cent, for each of this company's re-
fineries, beyond the dividend which each smaller refinery
would produce.
Contracts have been entered into by the well known
house of Messrs. Pontifex and Wood, for the supply and
erection of the necessary machinery, on favourable terms.
It is at present intended to erect refineries in London
and in France, each capable of refining 1,000 tons of raw
sugar per week; and the land for the French refinery has
been secured in a most favourable position at Saint Denis,
near Paris, and at the very moderate price of 10 francs per
square metre.
The directors also propose to purchase or erect a refinery
at Liverpool.
Interest at 5 per cent. per annum will be paid on all
capital called up until 18 months after the incorporation of
the company, by which time it is calculated the firstrofinery
of the company will be in operation.
The directors pledge themselves to make no allotment
unless the whole of the first issue is subscribed. If no
allotment is made the deposit will be returned in full.
The memorandum and articles of association may be Peen
at the office of the solicitors. _ _

Prospectuses, forms of application for shares, and every
information may be obtained at the offices of the company,

SUICIDE BY A STATION-MASTER.--On Thursday
Mr. Robinson, the master of the station on the
North-Eastern Railway, at Sherburn, near Milford Junc-
tion, committed suicide by hanging himself. Deceased,
who was about 35 years of age, and had been a consider-
able period in the service of the company, was at his post
and attending his duties yesterday morning, when, with-
out assigning any reason, ho left, and some time after was
found hanging by the neok in a field at some distance.
Before committing the rash act it would appear that be
divested himself of his coat, waistcoat, and watch, as these
were found at least a hundred yards from the spot at which
he was hanging ; and then, tying one end of his silk scarf
in a tree and the other round his neck, jumped from some
railings, which he had ascended for his object. His fall
thence would be about two feet, and he must have died
almost instantly, inasmuch as his neck was broken. No
reason is 11110Nra for the commission of the act, and it is,
therefore, rlentned to have been incited by temporary
fuel city.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

GOODWOOD RACES.-FRIDAY.

The sweets begin to pall on the last day. The dust and
heat, endured heretofore with such comparative indiffe-
rence, is now discovered to be a nuisance and a bore. There
is a great falling off in the attendance of the ladies ; it is de
rigueur not to appear twice in the sane bonnet and dress,
and it is just possible that the third day has seen the limit
of some of the Goodwood wardrobes. We believe that
three days' racing is just enough for any lady, and that if
a vote could be taken on the subject three would be carried
by a large majority. The last day here is generally, how-
ever, one of the best, as far as racing is concerned, the Nu-
rsery Handicap, the Chesterfield Cup, the March Stakes, and
the Richmond Plategenerally bringingout largo fields, and
exciting a great deal of speculation. The Nursery brought
out 19 runners, Gladiator, the favourite, at 100 to 30, Ma-
zurka, from Godding's stable, being, perhaps, backed for
most money next. We had no Victorious this year to win
at the top and steadying weight of 9st., Attraction, the
highest weighted here, not making any show in the race.
The favourite, too, was beaten easily, and Life Guardsman
won cleverly by half a length, Nutrition, a good-looking
filly in Nightingall's stable,
_being second. The March
Stakes was a surprise for Mr. J. B. Morris, who had de-
clined to back Shrapnell, refusing 100 to 8 about him just
'before they went to the post. It was a good race between
the three placed ; but Shrapnell had always the best of it
from the distance, and won cleverly at last. For the Ches-
terfield Cup—a beautiful piece both of workmanship and
design—the Woodyates party were extremely sanguine
about Historian, his owner backing him as if the race was
over, and standing to win a large sum. Still it did not
look quite 5 to 2 in a large field of 30 horses. Mr. Brayley
fully counted upon Redmire to repair his Stakes losses.
The result of the race certainly made it pretty apparent
that had a more efficient jockey been on him on Wednes-
day he could not well have lost. To-day he won very
easily, with only John Davis and Provisor near him. Mr.
Bmyley lands a good stake, together with a splendid
trophy, and we trust he is consoled.
Time and space warns us not to dwell on the remaining
events of as successful a meeting, from every point of view,
as was ever held 'at Goodwood. The weather, the sport,
and the attendance were all above the mark, all the acces-
sories and minor details carried out most efficiently, and
but one note of satisfaction heard on all sides. The
railway arrangements were excellent, with the excep-
tion of a hitch at Chichester this afternoon, where there
appeared to be a most extraordinary lack of first-class

Upwards of half an hour was lost at the post. When
they got away, Wild Agnes in the centre made play,
having Lord Douglas, Thalassius, Zambesi, and Reindeer
as her immediate followers to the distance. The latter
then dropped back, and half-way up Lord Stamford's colt
took a decided lead, and won very cleverly by a couple of
lengths. Wild Agnes defeated Lord Douglas by a head
for second, and the latter was a similar distance in advance
of Zambesi; Indigestion was fifth, Lady Williams sixth,
Reindeer seventh, and Gem of the Sea next. The Monk
and Cadeau were the two last.

Several failures preceded the actual start, which was most
unsatisfactory. Immediately the flag was lowered Lifo
Guardsman slipped his horses and came on with a slight
lead of Nutrition, the favourite, Mazurka, Hazeldoan,
Othello, and Blackthorn, the others, who were running
widely, being headed by Ambition (wide on their left), close
up with whom were Eccleston, Loaf Sugar, The Sharper,
Jezebel, Venturer, Black Prince, and Monitress ; Gold Pen
who got badly off, bringing up the rear. As they streamed
along the bottom Nutrition got upon better terms with the
leader, and upon the retirement of Gladiator, Mazurka and
Othello became their immediate followers. They had, how-
ever, no chance of reaching the leaders, who came on to-
gether to the centre of the lawn, where Lifo Guardsman
increased his advantage and won very cleverly at last by
half a length ; there were four lengths between tho second
and third ; and a head divided the latter from Mazurka,
who was fourth; Sister to Amber was fifth, Hazeldoan
sixth, The Sharper seventh, Blackthorn eighth, and Gladi-
ator next. The next lot, who were pulling up, comprised
Brimstone, Jezabel, Ambition, Loaf Sugar, Gold Pen, and
Monitress.

Diadem, Bishopston, Knight of tho Whistle, and Blackbird,
who ran in close company to half way in the distance, when
Alberta joined the leader on the rails, followed by Black-
bird on their left. From this point a close and interesting
race home ensued, Shrapnel' winning cleverly by a neck ;
Alberta defeated Blackbird by a length for second, and
Vision fourth. Papoose and Bishopston were the last two.

Ladra, and 40 to 1 each agst Provisor and Pilgrim.
After a couple of failures, an excellent start was effected.
Lucky Star, on the left of his horses, having a slight lead
of Pilgrim, came on in front, with the favourite third, and
Black Draught, Redmire, and Muezzin lying next ; the
others, who were closely laid up, being headed by Peon,
Perfumer, and Zambesi. They ran thus to half-way down
the hill, where Perfumer headed the leaders, and the trio,
with Vixen, John Davis, Zambesi, Redmire, Provisor, Peon,
•and the favourite in close attendance, came on in close
company to the distance, where Lucky Star and Pilgrim
were beaten. At this point Redmire ran through his horses,
and, with Provisor, John Davis, and Perfumer in attend-
