LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, MAY 19.—We
have had 2,000 bales of cotton sold to day at yesterday's
prices—viz., 200 Cearas and Pcrnams, 121 d to 121. ; 20 Ma-
ranhams, ; 20 Surat, 6W. ; remainder American, from
10d. to 11Ad.

ALLSEND.—Wallsend, so called, as being the
spot where the celebrated wall of Severus terminated on the
northern bank of the Tyne, a few miles below Newcastle, has,
in modern times, been chiefly known as the site of a colliery
yielding the most valuable description of coal. so important,
indeed, is the appellation in the market, that although' the
high main seam, which afforded the original coal, has long
been worked out, the designation has not only continued to be
applied to some one or other sort, as the best, but to several
sorts which the dealers wish to recommend.—history of

EPSOM RACES—CoyezU.DED.
The " Oaks Day" although pleasant-enough per se, was,
compared with Thursday, a dull affair. There was no hurry-
ing along the road as if life was at stake—the-dashinglouls
dwindled into humble pairs—horses and riders looked iif the
Derby had taken all " the shine" out of them—and the majo-
rity of these who bent their way to the Downs bore a ,gravity
of countenance which would have been more becoming a fune-
ral procession. It seemed as if the Tract Society had la-
boured successfully in its vocation, for a more devout set of
holiday-makers we have never seen. The Stand was fash-
ionably attended, but lacked much of the beauty and rank col-
lected within its walls on the Derby day. The ring too was
smaller, and less noisy, defeat having silenced many, and the
dread of a " bad settling" given a serious turn even to the
victors. His Royal highness the Prince of Orange and his
sons again honoured the course with their presence, accompa-
nied by Sir H. Seymour. Their Royal Highnesses entered
freely into the spirit of the scene, visited the Grand Stand,
and expressed themselves highly gratified with the day's sport.
The following were the results of the day's racing :
Second Year of a Renewal of the Oaks Stakes of 50 sovs. each,
h. ft., for three yrs old fillies, Bst. 41b. Mile and a half. The
second to receive 100 sovs. out of the Stakes ; and the winner
to pay 100 sovs. towards the expenses of the Police. 98 Subs.
Mr. J. Scott's b. f. Cyprian
Mr. Houldsworth's Destiny
The following also started, but were not placed :
Mr. Walker's Emineh Robinson
Mr. Dawson's hr. f. Fair Jane T. Lye
Mr. Armitage's b. f. Vesper Cartwright
Lord Exeter's b. f. Toga Connelly
Lord Wilton's Granada G. Edwards
Mr. Allen's Promise .. Pavis
Mr. Greatorex's ch. f., out of Shortwaist Wheatley
Mr. Greville's chi. f. Marmalade Rogers
Captain Martin's ch. f. Minna
Duke of Beaufort's Esmeralda
Betting-2 to 1 agst Cyprian, 7to 2 agst Fair Jane (taken),
8 to 1 agst Emineh, 8 to 1 agst Vesper, :10 to 1 agst Destiny
(taken), 12 to 1 agst Promise, 14 to 1 agst Toga (taken), and
20 to 1 agst Shortwaist. Inferior as it may be to the Derby
in general attractions, the Oaks has seldom been known to fall
short of it in one important feature, viz., false starts. Nearly
a dozen took place. Fair Jane, determined to rival the Athe-
,uian in a bad pre-eminence, resolutely withholding her assent
to most of them. What with these and a want of punctuality
the race was not decided until within ten or twelve minutes of
four o'clock, at least an hour and a half later than it ought to
have been. When the patience of the spectators was com-
pletely worn out the last or effective start was made, Toga
taking the lead at a steady pace, Cyprian lying next her, with
Promise, Destiny, Marmalade and Fair Jane laid up, and the
others in a rue;; at their heels,, the. whole lot being as closely
packed as horses could be. In this order they went up the
hill, at the top of which Minna died away, Shortwaist filly
dropping off before they reached the turn, and Vesper as soon
as they crossed the roads. Mega maintained her position till
about a distance and a half from home, when the pace became
so severe that she was fain to fall into the body of horses be-
hind. The race now appeared to rest between Cyprian, Fair
Jane, Destiny, Promise, and Marmalade, neither of them as
yet having evinced any decided symptoms of defeat. Cyprian
took up the position vacated by Toga, the others running with
her to the Grand Stand, where Destiny challenged, and the
two, going away from the rest, made a very beautiful finish,
Scott, by dint of punishment, landing his mare first by half a
length. Marmalade and Promise ran in two or three lengths
astern of them, the Newmarket mare having a trifle the best of
it ; next to these were Toga and Fair Jane, then a lot of three
or four, and, lastly, Vesper, Shortwaist, and Minna, eight of
the twelve that started, making as pretty a tail as could have
been expected had the pace been better, for it was much slower
than the Derby. Value of the Stakes, subject to the custo-
mary deductions, 2,7501. The winner is got by Partisan, out
of Frailty (bred by the Hon. E. Pctre), by Filho da Puta,
out of Agatha, by Orville, Star, Young Marske, &c.

old, 7st. ; four, Bst. 71b. , five, 9st. ; six and aged, •9st. 21b. ;

Of the races generally speaking we may say confidently that
they have never been surpassed in the number of the visitors.
The receipts at the Grand Stand were considerably larger
than last year, and the sale of lists exceeded any other meeting
by nearly five hundred. The arrangements were on the whole
excellent, the only fault being in the late hour at which the
Derby and Oaks were appointed to be run ; the evil, which
was generally complained of, can be easily avoided in future
without interfering with the privileges of the booth-keepers.

It is a remarkable fact that all the favourites for the Derby
after the crack were got by Partisan. Three of them, Gla-
diator, Venison, and Alfred, ran second, third, and fourth;
and it is supposed that had Gladiator been allowed a fair start
he would have won the Derby. The winner of the Oaks is
also a Partisan. We understand that Mr,. Tattersall has pur-
chased Glaucus, and is covering at Dawley Farm. The whole
of his last year's stock, 26 in number, was purchased by Mr.
Bond. They arc the most promising lot in Newmarket.
The settling day for Epsom is Tuesday next. The Good-
wood .Stakes and Cup close on the same day.
The melancholy death of the Hon. Berkeley Craven has
produced the moat poignant regret in the fashionable and
sporting circles. _

It is of remark that both the Derby and Oaks were
won by the first favourite--a circumstance almost without
parallel.
The owner of the winner of the Derby is said to have backed
his own horse to a considerable amount. Aud every disinte-
rested man on the turf, or who takes an interest in its exciting
recreations, rejoices in the result of the race.

A disturbance took place late on Thursday evening on Ep-
som Downs, which was productive of serious consequ-nces.
It appears that two rival gangs of gipsies had quarrelled and
bad got to blows ; a cry of " Murder" was raised ; and a po-
liceman. named Girdler, ran to the spot; he was immediately
struck down, stabbed in the arm, and his head cut open. A
second, named Wright, proceeded to his relief, and was stab-
bed in two or three places ; nor was it till several other police-
men arril ed that their companions were rescued and the gipsies
secured. A subscription has been opened for Girdler and
Wright, who arc dangerously wounded. ,
