GREAT MARLOW RACES.
These Races will take place on the 3d and 4th of August,
under the immediate and distinguished patronage of Lieut.-
Colonel Sir W. R. Clayton, Bart., M. P., Captain M. Martyn,
2d Life Guards, and G. H. Dashwood, Esq. A Cup, the
gift of Captain M. Martyn, and a Plate, the gift of Sir W. R.
Clayton, will be run for ; also, a Galloway Stakes, and a
Half-bred Stakes, each day.

AQUATICS.
The race between the upper-sixes (Eton Collegians) came
off on Friday evening. The Thetis was manned by FeHowes,
Curry, mm., Wyndham, Rous, Stanley, and Boscawen, Gor-
don steercr ; and the Britannia by Garnett, Shadwell, Croft,
Curry, min., Maunsell, and Forbes, Harding steerer. The
boats had a good start, the Britannia first at the Clump; be-
yond this the Thetis crossed, justled, and took the lead. At
Lower Hope the Britannia worked up and shook the rudder of
the Thetis, but lost the turn, a lucky miss for her opponent,
who got a few yards a-head, and was never after run into,
winning by a long distance. Both crews pulled well, and the
choice of sides to Garnett might have won him the match.
ROWING MATCH AGAINST TIME FROM MARGATE TO LON-
Robinson, who lately rowed from London to
Gravesend and back, has made another match against time,
viz.—To row—in conjunction with a Waterman, double sculls
—from Margate Pier to London-bridge in twelve succes-
sive hours. The match is to come off on or before the
last day of September. The distance is about ninety miles ;
but this is a secondary consideration compared with the fact
that they will have to row nearly five hours out of the twelve
against tide. We have not heard the exact amount of odds
that Mr. Robinson has taken with the parties who have backed
time against him, but at Lyon's Rooms, on Thursday 5 to 1
was offered in favour of time, which was ultimately taken in
tens. The friends of Mr. Robinson think he ought to have
been satisfied with the reputation he gained in his Gravesend
match, and not to risk his laurels in an undertaking which
abounds with so much difficulty and danger as to render the
successful termination of it, if not impossible, at least extremely
doubtful. Mr. Robinson has commenced training for the
match, and we presume that Ben Lewis is the waterman chosen
to accompany him, as 'we have lately seen them constantly on
the river together. Nothing but a dead calm throughout the
distance will give them a chance of winning; even then they
will find the tide-swell in many parts quite enough to encounter.
A steamer and attendant cutters will bo brought into requisition
on this occasion.

FOOT RACE.—On Tuesday morning a foot race for 201. aside
was run between a Windsor forester, known by the name of
the Antelope, and the crack St. James's runner. The distance
was 200 yards on the road at Hounslow, and the Antelope won
by above six yards. Betting was at starting 3to 2 and 2to 1
on ;the Windsor man, who is now ready to make a match with
any countryman for the same distance for 501. or 1001.

" ho is ' MRS. ARMYTACE ?' "—and " who is
the Duchess of Spalding?' " form just now very general
(,uestions in the fashionable circles. We must leave it to
Yorkshire to decide, and to Mrs. Gore to tell—if she chooses.
We consider these the most characteristic sketches that hare
fallen from the pen of this lively writer; a tale of such deep
domestic interest as " Mrs. Armytagc, or Female Domina-
tion," it has seldom been our lot to peruse.

The poet Carpini once asked his friend Haydn,
How it happened that his church music was almost of an
animating, and even gay description ?" To this Haydn an-
swered, " I cannot make it otherwise : I write according to
the thoughts which I feel :—when I think upon GOD, ray
heart is so full of joy that the notes dance, and leap as it were
from my pen: and since GOD has given me a cheerful heart,
it will enaily be forgiven me that I serve him with a cheerful
spirit."

The Sitabinn ilirrot9 states that the Princess of
Beira, who takes the name of Duchess of Anguejas, accom-
panied by three children, sons of Don Carlos, arrived on the
211th ult. at Salzburg, and will remain some time in that town.

The Frankfort .Journal mentions the marriage at
Dresden, of M. Aneilloni, Prussian Minister for Foreign Af-
rah's, to the Marchioness de Vertigneul, Lady in Waiting to
the Queen of the Netherlands. The bridegroom isin the 70th
Feat' of hits age. It is said that he, will be created a Cotnit in
honour of his nuptials.
