INSTRUCTION IN THE ELEMENTS OF ART AND SCIENCE.
—A meeting was held at the Mansion-house on Satur-
day—the Lord Mayor in the chair—the object of which
was to provide the means of giving to the young, and
especially to youths belonging to the working classes,
the benefits to be derived from an early acquaintance
with the elements of science and art. Resolutions en-
forcing these views, and expressive of the expediency of
teaching drawing and the elements of science, and giv-
ing artistic instruction in all schools for the industrious
classes, were agreed to. Dr. Lyon Playfair and Mr.
Henry Cole, the joint Secretaries of the Department
of Science and Art, gave an explanation of the
views of the Board of Trade upon these points ;
and Mr. Samuel Gurney, Dr. Russell, of the
Charterhouse, ,the Rev. Mr. Cuningham, Mr. W. B.
Gurney, the Rev. J. Bloomfield, and other gentlemen,
spoke in furtherance of the objects of the 'meeting.
Sixty or seventy gentlemen connected with the manage-
ment of great public schools were present, all of whom
concurred in the idea that it was desirable to diffuse an
acquaintance with the elements of science and art among
the working classes. It was agreed that steps should be
taken to forma committee to carry out such an object.
INSTITUTE OF ACTUARIES.—The annual generalineet-
ing of this institute was held at their rooms, in St.
James's-square, on Saturday, the 2d inst., at three
o'clock, p.m. John Finlaison, Esq., president, in the
chair. The circular convening the meeting having been
read, the secretary read the report of the council on
the progress of the institute during the past year, .
which was most satisfactory. An abstract of the
receipts and expenditure for the financial year ended
the 30th of April last, was also submitted, which
showed an increased balance in the treasurer's
hands, notwithstanding that tho journal of the
institute is necessarily conducted at considerable ex-
pense. Several alterations and amendments were then
made in the constitution and laws of the institute, and
the meeting proceeded to elect the president, council,
and officers for the year ensuing. The following were
re-elected auditors for the ensuing year. William km-
wens, Benjamin Henderson, F. G. Smith, Esqs. The
thanks of the meeting were then voted to the president,
council, and officers, for their services during the past
year, and a special vote of thanks having been passed lo
the president for his conduct in the chair, the meetirg
separated.

NEWMARKET AND WORCESTER.
The meetings at Newmarket and Worcester most in-
conveniently clash. Both commence to-morrow (Tues-
day), and both possess distinct and attractive features.
Peculiar importance, however, attaches to the
appointed to be decided at head races
quarters, the re-
sult of the July and Chesterfield Stakes in particular
being calculated to exercise matexial influence over
future speculation. By the introduction, too, of the
new handicaps into the programme, an agreeable variety
and additional interest will be imparted to the pro-
ceedings:
The July Stakes is the principal item in Tuesday's
list. Although the field is likely to be numerically
strong, and the race unusually important, yet specula-
tion on it has been very limited. This circumstance is,
perhaps, attributable to the uncertainty which exists
as to the starting of Ruby. At Northampton
this horse displayed racing powers of indisputable
superiority, and the easy manner in which he defeated
his opponents is sufficient to establish the formid-
ableness of his pretensions. Should he be num-
bered among the competitors, I shall be induced to re-
gard his success with considerable confidence, but should
he not start, I shall be inclined to subscribe to the
opinion which is somewhat widely entertained, that his
party are disinclined to jeopardize the position which he
occupies in the Derby betting by the possibility of a
defeat. Rumour asserts that Ruby will encounter a
dangerous antagonist in Astolfo, who it is reported has
been tried most satisfactorily with Brigliadoro and
Cheddar. In certain well-informed quarters, however,
the accuracy of this report is regarded with much sus-
picion, and at Newmarket, I am informed, that it is en-
tirely discredited.
Since Marsyas ran at Stockbridge he has gradually
advanced into much favour, and many shrewd judges
deem his chance of carrying off th e July Stakes by no means
insignificant. Taking public perforznances, however, as a
guide, I anticipate that the race will result in favour of
Ruby; but in his absence I shall expect the best of
Lord Clifden's to win—either Astolfo or Brigliadoro.
Scarecrow, Cheddar, Waverley, Coleraine, and Nerve,
appear to be the most favourably weighted for the Han-
dicap on Wednesday. The starting of the former is,
perhaps, doubtful ; I am therefore inclined to take
Cheddar and Waverley to represent my interest.
The running for the Chesterfield Stakes will depend
so materially on that for the July Stakes, that it is
hazardous to express an opinion on the probable result.
At present I have a " fancy" for Brigliadoro, brother
to Mountain Deer, and Lady Aubrey.
For the Handicap Plate the respective chances of
Scandal, Hothorpe, and Jack the Giant Killer, are
most entitled to consideration.
Of the events to be decided at Worcester to-morrow,
the Worcester Stakes only requires observation.
Evadne, Garforth, and Kiteflyer, will, perhaps, occupy
the foremost place in the race.
A letter from Newmarket, this morning, informs me
that Ninnyhammer died there on Saturday " of some
internal adhesion." The death of so good and game a
little horse is, doubtless, much regretted by its owner.
