SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL' S.-YESTERDAY.

A scanty attendance, and business very limited.
LIVERPOOL GRAND NATIONAL.—Miss Mowbray was
again buoyant. After Bto 1 had been taken to 351., 7
to 1 was booked to a similar sum, and the taker was
desirous of having the odds laid again in fifties. La
Gazza Ladra was in good demand ; and Maurice Daley
and Trout received some pretty strong support at the .
odds quoted. In the City the latter had been backed at
odds varying from 25 to 20 to 1.
CHESTER CUP.--No change in the positions of the two
leading favourites—both were nominally at 18 to 1.
Two THOUSAND.--3 to 1 was the highest offer against
Ruby ; Bto 1 taken about Phnton. Boiardo was not
named—in the City, however, he had been backed for
751., at 5 to 1.
DERBY.-900 to 200 taken about Autocrat, and 700
to 100 about King Tom. 25 to 1 would have been
taken to some money about Ruby, but 22 to 1 were the
highest odds laid. Corin was in considerable force. In
the course of the day his principal backer invested nearly
5001. at the odds quoted. 3,000 to 90 taken about
Neville. Further comment is unnecessary.

REFORMATION OF ADULT MALE CRIMINALS.—On Wed-
nesday afternoon a very interesting meeting of the friends
and supporters of the London Training Institution or
Reformatory for Adult Male Criminals was held in the
Lecture-hall of the house, Great Smith-street, West-
minster, for the purpose of bidding farewell to 26 of
the inmates, who, having served the twelvemonth
allowed in the institution in the acquirement of some
industrial pursuits, were on the eve of emigrating to
the colonies at the expense of the charity. The chair
was taken by the Right Hon. the Earl of Shaftesbury
who was supported by their Graces the Duke and
Duchess of Argyll, the Earl and Countess of Ellesmere,
Earl Waldegrave, the Hon. Geo. Waldegrave, Mr. Cheet-
ham, M.P., Mr. Ricardo, M.P., Mr. Barnes, M.P., Capt.
Trotter, Colonel Wylde, Sir R. Arbuthnot, Bart.,
and many other noblemen, titled ladies, members
of Parliament, &c. Mr. Nash, the secretary, hav-
ing read several letters from young men who had
emigrated at the expense of the charity, which were of a
very satisfactory nature, the noble chairman delivered
a very impressive address to the young men who
were assembled in the body of the hall. He ex•
horted them to express their gratitude for the man-
ner in which they had been rescued from a!, career
of crime and consequent misery not only by their words,
but by their actions, and when in a distant land he hoped
they would avoid all those tempte.tions which would
doubtlessly cross their path, and maintain a system of
sobriety, regularity, and devotion. They had been rescued
from siu and wickedness, had received a good education
and instruction in some business, and by
leaving this
country he trusted they would leave their former
bad associates and haunts of vice, and ultimately become
restored to a position in society. The Duke of Argyll
then made a short address, in which he expressed a hope
that Parliament and the Government would follow the
example set by Mr. Nash, and found institutions for
the reformation of criminals. Captain Trotter and Mr.
Joseph Payne also addressed the inmates. One of the
inmates about to depart returned the thanks of his com-
panions, and said they should let the committee see that
their labours had not been misplaced. His lordship
then shook hands with them, and the Duke of Argyll
haying bade them God speed, the meeting dispersed.
