The weather was again very unfavourable, the ground
exceedingly heavy, and the attendance remarkably select,
but the sport was better than might have been anticipa-
ted. An accident happened to a train leaving Man-
chester at 12 o'clock, which prevented the attendance of
several Manchester turfites. A Mr. Shepherd had his
leg broken.

THE OVERLAND MAIL.—The telegraphic communica-
tion of the arrivalof the Overland Mail quotes another
considerable decline in the rate'of exchange at Canton,
which will further tend to check the shipments of silver
from this country. The Calcutta quotation, however,
is again unfavourable.
FATAL ACCIDENTS DURING THE FOG. —Yesterday,
Mr. W. Baker held an inquest on the body of Hans
Simon Hanson, wed 20 years, a Danish seaman, who
lost his life in the late fog. The deceased belonged to
the brig Agnes, from Denmark, which on Wednesday
night was moored in the eastern basin of the London
Docks. The deceased was alone, and it is supposed
that he fell overboard accidentally from the bow of the
vessel, as a splash in the water and a call for help was
heard. One of the dock men procured the drags, and
the body was found in five minutes at the head of the brig.
A second inquest was held in Bromley respecting the
death of Henry Limpking, aged 18 years. The de-
ceased was a mariner, employed on board the Brenon,
lying in the East India Import Dock, Poplar. On
Wednesday night he was in the act of crossing several
vessels to get to his own ship, when he slipped and fell
into the water. Every exertion was used, but the body
could not be found until life was extinct. Verdicts,
" Accidental death." Information was also received by
Mr. Baker, relative to the death of a seafaring man,
named James Johnson, mate of the brig May Queen,
lying in the Shadwell basin. The deceased was missing
on Thursday morning, and when search was made, the
body was discovered near the south quay. The deceased
walked into the water on the way to his ship. Mr.
Baker also received notice of a fourth death arising from
accidental circumstances during the .fog on Tuesday
night at Poplar,
