EPSOM RACES, THURSDAY.

The weather was stormy, the hill empty, the racecourse
gloomy, and the office of the polioemen a sinecure. The
noise and din of Wednesday had passed into forgetfulness,
the signs of a Derby-day being only manifested in the wet
drapery of the suttling booths and the still standing sticks
of the Aunt Sally-men, The winning of Caractacus, and
unexpected defeat of The Marquis, were, as a matter of
course, the main topics of conversation, and betting on the
Oaks, which had been almost nil on the previous afternoon,
began to Jake possession of the thoughts of speculators.
On that event betting went on with some briskness between
the races, of which there were eight on the card, the first
being a walk over, and the fields for the others small. The
Cup produced some little excitement through the meeting
of Asteroid and Fairwater, but the horse, giving her 81b,
made his own running, and won very easily. The Two-
yr-old Stakes, worth nearly £4OO, was won by a filly,
which had been claimed fur £5O; and the finest race of the
day occurred in a selling stake. A misty rain came on at
half-past five o'clock, when the sport was brought to a con-
clusion with a sweepstakes, reduced to a match between
a Derby horse and an inferior mare from the great French
stable.

A SCENE AT THE BLACKBURN BOARD

A clean, old, decrepid man presented himself. " What's

aw'v nought to d nor nought to tak to." " What's
your daughter Ellen doing. Joseph ?" " Hoo's eawt o'
wark." "And what's your wife doing ?" " Hoo's bin
bedfast aboon five year." The old man wai relieved at
once, but as he walked away he looked hard at the ticket,
as if it wasn't exactly the thing, and turning round said
" Couldn't yo let me be a sweeper i'th' streets istid, Mr.
Eccles ?" A clean old woman came up, with a snow-white
nightcap on her head. " Well, Mary, what do you want ?"
"Aw could like yo to gi' mo a bit of summat, Mr. Eccles, for

of the guardians. " Oh, no," replied another, " don't send
the woman there ; let her keep her little place together if
she can." Another old woman presented herself, with a
threadbare shawl drawn closely round her grey head.
" Well, Ann, there's nobody but yourself and your John,

[ADvmurisEmENT.i—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
Diseases of the Glands.— When the glands about the neck
or elsewhere are inflamed or enlarged, Holloway's ointment
may be rubbed in with the most implicit confidence of its
arresting the disease and preventing disfigurement. The
affected part should be fomented with warm water before
friction with the ointment, which thus more readily enters
through the cutaneous pores, and acts more directly on the
blood,
skin, and roots out the malady without irritating or annoying
lymphatics, and glands, both in and beneath the
the tenderest skin. Holloway's pills should b taken while
this treatment is pursued; they are remedies which, acting
through the medium of the constitution, exercise a most
beneficial influence over the local disease.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—.Tune 5,

FULL COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE.
(Before Sir C. Cresswell.)
BAKER V. BAKER AND RICHARDS,

This was the petition of the husband, praying for
a dissolution of marriage on the ground of his wife's
adultery, and there was no appearance on behalf of
the respondent or co-respondent.
Dr. Spinks appeared for the petitioner.
The parties were both in service in 1854, in which
year the marriage took place, and they lived
together until 1860, with the exception of occa-
sional separations, in consequence of their being in
different places. In the latter year the respondent
left her husband to go to a situation at Birmingham,
where she formed the acquaintance of the co-re-
spondent at his father's house, where she lodged.
An improper intimacy commenced between the re-
spondent and this person, and they had since lived
as man and wife. It appeared that there was one
child, issue of the marriage, which is still living,
and that the respondent had given birth to a child
since her cohabitation with the co-respondent.
Decree nisi, with costs.
NEED V. NEED AND VYVIAN.

This was a suit instituted by the husband, who
was a captain in the East India Service, for a disso-
lution of marriage, on the ground of his wife's adul-
tery with th© co-respondent, to which no appear-
ance was entered.

Dr. Wamby and Mr. Villiers were counsel for the
petitioner.
From the evidence, a portion of which had been
taken at Boulogne by commission, it appeared the
parties were married in India on Oct. 20, 1845, and
resided in that country until the end of 1853, when
the respondent was ordered to England in conse-
quence of the state of her health. She was accompa-
nied by two daughters, the only surviving issue of
the marriage, and took up her residence with the
petitioner's mother, who was the widow of General
Need. In the commencement of 1859 the respondent
went to Boulogne, and applied for admission to the
debtors' prison to see the co-respondent, who was
confined there, and alleged he was her relation.
The governor of the prison refused to admit her until
she obtainedan order from the sous prefet, which she
succeeded in doing. She then visited the co-respon-
dent daily in his chamber, and was in the habit
of remaining with him until 5 o'clock in the after-
noon, when visitors were obliged to leave the prison.
In May, 1859, the co-respondent was liberated, and
he and respondent lived openly together as man
and wife at Boulogne and Montreuil. It was also
proved that the petitioner and his wife had been on
very affectionate terms while in India, and he sup-
plied her with money up to the present time.
Decree nisi, with costs.
BLACK V. BLACK,

This was a suit by the wife foie judicial separa-
tion, on the ground of her husband's adultery, and
there was no appearance by the respondent.
Dr. Spinks was counsel for the petitioner.
It appeared that the petitioner was married to
the respondent, who was a farmer, formerly re-
siding at Littleborough, Nottingham, in 1842,
and they cohabited until January, 1855. In that
month the petitioner discovered that her husband
was carrying on an improper intercourse with a
female named Catley, and she went to her friends,
with whom she had since lived. It was also de-
posed that the respondent and the woman Catley
lived together as man and wife, without any at-
tempt at concealment, and that during the period
of their cohabitation the female in question gave
birth to a child, the paternity of which was not
denied by the respondent.
Sir C. Cresswell pronounced the decree for judi-
cial separation.
