TM/1160. T NicuT.-Tho 500 soya. Match between
John o' Gaunt and the Knight of the 'Whistle disap-
pointed general expectation : the odds quoted in our
account from the heath were ,laid to a considerab!e
amount, but turned out to be completely opposed to the
merits of the horses, as John o' Gaunt made all-the run-
ning, and won by six lengths.
The A. V. Handicap Plate was a very interesting race,
no less than fifteen having showed at •the post. The
running was made by Silistria, Isabella waiting on her
right into the cords, when she went up and won cleverly
by a length. Rory O'More, Sir Hans, and two or three
others, were well up. The winner was scarcely mentioned
in the betting; 10 to 1, taken once or twice, being a mere
nominal price.

A MAN STABBED BY HIS WIFE.—On
Thursday morning, the fatal consequence of intemper•
ante was seriously exemplified at Stanford Rivers, in
this county. A butcher named Carter and his wife,
being both in a state of intoxication, quarrelled respect-
ing a further supply
,Of gin, when the latter, in a
paroxysm of passion;, made a thrust at her husband
with a table knife, which entered his arm to a depth
of two inches. lie immediately obtained the assist-
anco of mr. Pottee, surgeon, who dressed the wound,
and having given information to superintendent
M'lnnes, his furious partner, to whom he had been mar-
ried seventeen years, was quickly taken into custody.
She has since been examined before the Rev. H. J.
Earle and Capel Cure, Esq., by whom she has been
fully committed for trial at the next assize. Had the
knife entered Carter's side, there is little doubt a fatal
result would have ensued; danger is not now apprehevlo.
