The weather to-dAy was unfavourable, and the sport'
from the number of engagements which ended in forfeits,
very moderate. The deficiency, however, was only in
quantity, the Prendergast having excited extraordinary
interest. Pitsford was backed tee night before, and on
the heath before starting, for an immense amount, at 5
to 2, 3 to 1, and 7 to 2; not a shilling being laid out on
Bolingbroke for it, although backed freely for the Derby
at 20 to 1. The race terminated in the unequivocal
defeat of the favourite, to the consternation of his backers,
but assuredly not to the surprise of those who saw him
stripped before starting. This unlooked for issue of a
" certainty" had the immediate effect of springing
Bolingbroke to 10 to 1 for the Derby, and Nutshell to
1,000 to 30, taken freely, Pitsford receding to 40 to 1.
The betting on the Cambridgeshire also underwent a
Momentous change, Rathmines having been backed in
the morning for a large sum, and rising to 6 to 1 in less
than one hour.

-,EAMEN'S HOSPITAL SOClETT.—Yesterday after-
noon the general quarterly court of the governors of this
charity was held at the societi's premises, 74, King
Wilham-street. It appeared from the report which was
presented, that since the last quarterly meeting relief
had been extended to 722 in-patients and 761 out-
patients. Of those relieved on board 17 came from her
Majesty's ships, 561 from the British and foreign mer-
chant service, and there were already on board, at the
commencement of the quarter, 144. Of this number
621 had been discharged, and 99 remained on board at
the present time. Since the first establishment of the
society in 1821, no less than 60,496 seamen, from all
branches of the service, had been relieved. The income
of the society, during the past quarter, amounted to
2,7661. 7s. 3d., and the expenditure had equalled that
amount. Of the receipts, 258/, were from donations,
170/. from subscriptions, 6301. from dividends on stock,
1291, from the merchunti' seaman's money, and 7461. had.
been received as lines, levied under the 7th and Bth of
Victoria, c. 112. The dispute which had occurred with
the Liverpool corporation in respect of these tines had
been decided in favour of the society, and some arrears
of payments...due from the corporation had been re-
ceived. The corporation intended, however, to proseetve
the matter still further. The Dreadnought, hospital-
ship was still in duck undergoing repairs, the Dea,,,n-
shire remaining on the station in her place. During the
past quarter a great number of cholera cases had hem
received on beard the Iphienea, which had been retained
sol,ly as a hr,spit3l for cho'cra patients ; the number
received had, however, considerably diminished within
the last fortnight. This report was received and adopted,
and, after the transaction of some routine buainess, the
court adj9y.rnod.
