NAVAL SCHOOL.

This day a meeting of naval and marine officers (of and above
ward-room rank) was held at the Horticultural Society's rooms,
Admiral Sir Thomas Blackwood in the chair, to carry into effect
the design of establishing a school for the children of naval
officers. A number of very distinguished officers were present,
but great press of matter prevents our giving a report of the pro-
ceedings in this day's paper.

NE WMARKET JULY MEETING.

NEAV3IARKET, SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

The ensuing meeting will be confined to three days, and,
neither in the extent or the quality of the racing, is likely
to be more than an average one. To sporting men the
only race of any interest in the July Stakes, which, inde-
pendent of being itself a fruitful source of speculation,
generally affords some kind of guide to the betting on the
Derby and Oaks of the ensuing year. This race comes tiff
to-morrow, and there is every reason to expect that a large
field of horses will start for it ; the following are consi-
dered certain to run :—Beiratn, Palais Royal colt, Scratch,
Tredrille, Daft Jamie, Noa Compos. Barrossa colt, Cas-
trella filly, and the Andrew colt, brother to Nissus, one of
the Duke of Grafton's, and about two others, are also likely
to start ; of these Beiram. and Non Compos ran for tie
two Two-year old Stakes, Beiram being second for the
first (Archibald winning), and Non Compos third, in the
other race Archibald, carried 31b extra, and was not placed.
Beiram won it and Non Compos was second ; they are
three very fine racing like colts, and will no doubt prove
profitable to their owners ; it strikes us, however, that
Beiram's forte is for a short distance. Lord Jersey's Mid-
dleton colt is the favourite for this race. He has had two
or three trials, which are represented to have been exceed-
'ngly favourable, that there has been something in them
otcnot be doubted, for the colt has been backed at small
odds to a large amount, and by those parties whose con-
nections warrant the inference that they know something
of the matter ; still it must be recollected that the Mid-
dleton blood is not by any means popular, and that, with
the exception of a turn of speed for a very short distance,
they have invariably turned out soft and good for nothing,
the Blunder colt is an instance of it; the colt may cer-
tainly be an exception to the rule, and as he is in a stable
that has brought out more winners than any other at New-
market, it would be unwise to be heavy against them. The
last betting hereon this stakes was as follows :-
7 to 4 agst Lord Jersey's ; 4 to I agst Beiram; 7 to 1 agst Non
Compos ; Sto 1 agst Scratch ; 10 to 1 agst Palms Royal (taken) ;
10 to 1 agst Barrosa ; 12 to 1 agst Daft Jamie (taken) ; 12 to 1 agst
Maria. Nissus, Louisa, Castrella, and Trednlle, are quoted at 10
or 12 to 1 each, but are not backed.
Besides the July Stakes tl.ere are four matches, not one
of which possesses the slightest public interest.
The Derby and Oaks for 1833 and 1831 will close on
Saturday next, when the colts and fillies for 1833 must be
named. The Produce for the Riddlesworth, and other
Produce Stakes for 1834,, must be declared by the same
time, and the horses to which the mares engaged in the
Riddlegworth 1835,. were sent this spring.
Great alterations are in progress at the Jockey Club-
rooms; they are undergoing a thorough repair, and will
" come out" in a new and improved shape in the course of
a few months. In the mean time, the club dinners will
be held at Grafton House.

A few memhers arrived this morning, but it is supposed
that the important business in the House of Commons will
occasion the attendance to he very thin after to-morrow.

tended.

A most absurd paragraph has got into some
of the Sunday Papers—viz. that the CHANCEL-
LOR was prevented returning thanks when his
health was drank at
.the city dinner yesterday.by
PAGANINI'S solo on the violin. The truth is,
the CHANCELLOR had returned thanks, which
he did in one sentence, had sat down, and the
trumpeter behind the LORD MAYOR had sum-
moned the guests to give attention to Signor
PAGANINI before PAGANINI had returned
with his violin, he having left the hall a feW se-
conds after the -CHANCELLOR sat down, to
fetch his instrument.

the Prussians were taking measures in case the Belgians refused
the eighteen articles of the treaty of peace. It states that the 4th

on the borders of Belgium were to remain in the same position.
Four batteries of artillery had arrived at Urderg. The cavalry
