MRS. GRAHAM.

We regret to state that the intelligence received in
town yesterday* from Doddinghurst, respecting the above
unfortunate lady, was anything but favourable. After Mr.
Graham's departure for town on Tuesday night, symptoms
of rather an unfavourable nature manifested themselves, on
which the medical gentleman considered it necessary she
should undergo an operation ; but not wishing to perform
it without Mr. Graham's concurrence, it was delayed as
long as possible. On Wednesday noon, the symptoms in-
creasing, Mr. Amor, the proprietor of the farm where Mrs.
Graham is lying, came on horseback to town to fetch Mr.
Graham, whom he found at his residence in Poland-street.
They immediately started in a postchaise to Doddinghurst,
where they arrived about six o'clock, and within two hours
afterwards the unfortunate lady was delivered of a still born
male child. During the night, she remained in an ex-
tremely precarious state, and previously to Mr. Graham
leaving yesterday a consultation of the medical gentlemen
of the neighbourhood was held, the result of which was
their unanimous opinion that should not a favourable change
take place by this day, it will be impossible for her to re-
cover.

The balloon, which was found in a bye road about 30
miles from Doddinghurst, and consequently upwards of 50
miles from where the ascent took place, arrived in town
last night. Although much damaged, Mr. Graham hopes
to be able to make an ascent with it from Cheltenham,
should not the state of his lady prevent him. The cloak,
hat, cap, unbrella, and telescope belonging to the Duke of
Brunswick, were found safe in the car.

During yesterday, the solicitude respecting the fate of
this unfortunate lady, so largely evinced on the previous
days, appeared to he undiminished, hundreds of anxious in-
quiries having been at his residence, in Poland-street, by
persons of all classes.

The Dissenters of Lyme-Regis are very dissatisfied
that no redress of their grievances has been afforded them
during the past Session of Parliament.—Sherborne Journal.
POOR LAW.—The Kent Herald, whose unceasing
attacks on the. Poor Law Amendment Act is remarkable,
gives the following tale of woe to illustrate the grievance of
refusing to grant out-door relief :--" The widow of a post-
boy well known on the Dover road, who died about eighteen
months since, was compelled to take refuge, about six months
ago, in the workhouse of the Milton Union. During this pe-
riod she has repeatedly applied to leave the house, with her
children, if the parish would allow the veriest trifle towards
their support. This was refused. She then applied for per-
mission to leave the house herself. This was refused, and
she was thus detained as a prisoner.. She has not been allowed
to have an interview with her children since her admittance to
the workhouse 1 All this had such an effect on the poor crea-
ture's mind, that sbe has lost all natural feeling, and become
hardened and despairing."
On the 18th of August a thunder-storm visited the
prison of Belle Croix. Two persons were killed, and eleven
were more or less seriously wounded. A few minutes after-
wards the electric fluid knocked down a wall at Mallee.—
Journal du Commerce.
The present Earl of Kerry was intended by his
Noble father for the diplomatic line. He has, with the ex-
ception of occasional terms at Cambridge, travelled for the
last four years on the Continent, and was, we believe, an At-
tache to the Embassy of the Marquis's frieud, Sir Robert
Adair, at Brussels.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

EGHAM RACES-YESTEIMir.

his Majesty arrived on the ground at twenty minutes be-
fore two o'clock, in an open carriage and four, accompanied
by her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta, and his High-
ness Prince Ernest of Hesse Philippsthal, but not by her Ma-
jesty the Queen, who remained at the Castle. His Majesty,
who appeared to be in the enjoyment of excellent health and
spirits, was received with enthusiasm. In the eight carriages
which composed the remaining part of the Royal cortege were
the Duke of Dorset, Marquis Conyngham, Earl of Albemarle,
Lord Winchelsea, Lord and Lady Frederick Fitzclarence,
Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, Lord and Lady Falkland, Lord
and Lady Wharncliffe, the Marchioness Dowager of Corn-
wallis and daughters, Lady and Miss Wheatley, Lord and Lady
De Lisle, Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Ashley, Hon. Mr. Hudson,
Lady Charlotte Hatton, Mdlle. D'Este, Sir A. Barnard, Sir
C. Thornton, Sir J. Rennet, Sir H. Seymour and Lady
Clinton, Sir F. Watson, Sir H. Taylor, Mr. Shiffner, Mr.
Davis, &c. The police arrangements at the Royal tents were
placed in the same able hands (Messrs. Gardner, Leadbittcr,
and Capes) as on Tuesday.
The weather was delightful, and the assemblage equal, if
not superior, in fashion and number to any we have seen on
Runnymede for many years ; a list of the principal visitors
would only be a repetition of that which formed part of Tues-
day's proceedings.
The engagements comprehended in the list produced the
following results :
The Sunning Hill Stakes of 5 sovs. each, with 25 added (handi-
cap), for three yrs old and upwards. Last three quarters of the
New mile. 8 Subs.

Duke of Richmond's Lopez, 3 yrs, sst. 101 b

Mr. Brown's Airy, 5 yrs, Bst.- 71b
Betting 6 to 5 agst 'Ethilda, 3 to 1 agst Airy, 4 to 1 agst Lopez,
9to 2 agst Heiress, and Bto 1 asst Levity. Trapes took the lead
at the top of his speed, followed by Levity and Ethilda for the first
half mile. The latter then came out, made the rest of the running,
and won easy by a couple of lengths.
A Sweepstakes of 30 sovs. each, 20 ft. for two-year olds ; three
quarters of a mile. 3 Subs.
Lord Conyngham's Magnet
A Hunters' Stakes of 15 sovs. each, 15 ft. Two miles. 8 Subs.
Mr. Foster's Nike, 6 yrs
The Egham Stakes of 5 sovs. each, with 35 added ; three yrs, ist ;
four, Bst. 41b ; five, Bst. 101 b ; six and aged, 9st. lib. Mares
and geldings allowed 31b. Winners once in 1836 to carry 31b,
twice 51b, thrice 71b extra (matches and handicaps excepted).
Horses having started twice in 1836 and not won allowed 51b.
Heats, a mile and a half. 6 Subs.
D. of Richmond's Pussy, 5 yrs, Bst 21b....C0n011y 1 1
Colonel Peel's Partner, 3 yrs, 6st. 91b
Sir M. Wood's Amesbury, aged, 9st. llb 3 dr
Colonel Peel's Aristocrat, 4 yrs, 7st. 131 b
First heat—The hotting opened at even on Partner, and finished
at 5 to 4 on Pussy, a beautifully contested race between these two,
and won by a neck only. The second heat was won by three parts
of a length ; 4to 1 on Pussy.
His Majesty's Plate of ICO gs., for horses of all ages; three yrs
old, 7st. 51b ; four, 9st. llb ; five, 9st. 111 b ; six and aged, 13st.
21b. Two miles and a distance.
Lord Chesterfield's Hornsea, 4 yrs Robinson 1
Duke of Richmond's Sepoy, 3 yrs
Any odds on Hornsea, who, with a most praiseworthy for-
bearance, suffered his puny antagonist to assume the semblance
of a virtue he never possessed, and to be placed second by
something under a length. Robinson's jockeyship in giving
it the appearance of a race in order to gratify the spectators
was inimitable.

The Stewards appointed for next year are his Grace the
Duke of Beaufort, Lord Ashbrook, Lord Francis Gordon, and
Colonel Salway.
Immediately after the Egham Stakes Monsieur Adolphe
Pourrat was permitted to exhibit before his Majesty his in-
vention for detaching runaway horses from gigs. The first two
attempts were made at a walking pace and succeeded per-
fectly, but the third, at a canter, partially failed through acci-
dent or mismanagement of the reins. The invention is cre-
ditable to the ingenuity of M. Pourratt.
