this year is by far the most formidable lot, and that
Kent's string, so pelted and pol:cd through the winter,
is all moonshine.

The success which has attend, d all my prognostications
this year still stands by me; for I not only foretold the
winner of the " Two Thous,snd," but placed the first and
second correct for the" One Thousand," and should, in all
probability, hare been equally successful in the New-
market Stakes, had not Epirote suddenly fell amiss. As
I predicted, War lade was second, and received his
quietus, so far as his Derby chance is concerned. Cos-
sack won easily; and added another sprig to the Dane-
bury wreath. This race, as a contemporary states, was
the truest run this year; and the winner (mark my
words) will be John Day's Derby horse.
The annual sport on the Roodee at Chester begins at
half-past one on Tuesday, with the Grosvenor Stakes,
which must be won either by Pantasa or Burlesque.
The Chesterfield Stakes, for three yrs old, will have
ten starters; most probably the following animals:—
Aliwal, St. Leon, Jovi,l, Sagacity, Premier, Watchdog,
Abdiel, Lady Lurewell, Moonlight, and Susanna. Of
these, Aliwal, Watchdog, Lady Lurewell, and Ste-anna,
will form the front rank at the stand; Susanna or Watch-
dog finally winning, with nothing to spare.
A Sweepstakes of 25 sous. each, for two yrs old, will
have an Enchantress among the field, also Lucy Ashton,
Glen Saddel (a very fine colt), Buckstone, The Stinger,
and Beverlac; and the public may look out for a stinger
in Colonel Anson's colt or Enchantress; Beverlac bring
close up,
A Sweepstakes of 5 soya. each will be won by Butter-
ton or llawkest,ine.

• On Wednesday the good old town of Chester will be
disturbed from its wonted propriety by an influx of the
London and Manchester divisions of the sporting fra-
ternity, for the express purpose of witnessing the ex-
c;ting struggle for the " Coop," as the natives term the
" Tradesmen's Plate " The field for this race will be
composed of the following with but few deductions or
additions, viz

of this lot, in my opinion, is Montpensier; with him and
Mr. Periley's l'll stand to win.--I am, Sir, &e.
April 26. THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF.

THE “EDINBURGH REVIEW" AND
SIR FRANCIS HEAD.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sin,—As the conduct or misconduct of a public servant
has always been considered by the British press as a subject
worthy of fair investigation, I request that you will do me
the justice to insert the following brief exposure of some ac-
cusations which have lately appeared against me in a public
journal.
In the number of the _Edinburgh Review which has just
been published, it is stated, that on Sir F. Head's retiring
from the administration of the Government of Upper Canada,
he " determined on traversing the United States in disguise ;"
and " that having reached the town of Waterton, in the cha-
racter of servant to Judge Jones, he chose to overact his
humble part so grossly as to excite suspicion, and conse-
quently provoke recognition."
In reply to the above, I deliberately declare that, on my
arrival at Waterton, as well as throughout the whole of the
journey alluded to, my face was uncovered, that I was
dressed in the blue cloak I had always worn at Toronto, un-
derneath which I wore my usual travelling dress.
During this journey Judge Jones openly and undisguisedly
treated ins with the attention he had invariably shown me
at Toronto; and I pledge myself that, if appealed to, Judge
Jones, who is now at Toronto, will certify that the assertions
in the Edinburgh Review, that I travelled in disguise, and as
his servant, are, in every particular, untrue.
Having refuted an allegation which I trust every man of
honour will feel it was due to my character to contradict,
I will now briefly expose a few other misstatements of minor
importance, which I certainly should not otherwise have
noticed.
1. It is stated in the Edinburgh Review, page 373. that
" Sir F. Head now took a step which subjected him, and
we think justly, to the loudest censure from the citizens of
Toronto. He sent his own family on board a steamer in the
Lake. Now, though no one will be very hard on him for
showing such affection for his family, it must be recollected
that the other families in Toronto had no such means of
refuge."
The truth of the story is as follows :—On leaving Govern-
' ment House, en the night of the rebellion, to take up my
position in the market'place, I conducted my family to the
house of her Majesty's Solicitor-General, where they re-
mained the whole night.
On the afternoon of the next day, the.present Bishop of
Toronto recommended several families to go on board two
steamers, which were not in the Lake, but lying moored in
the harbour. They did so; and Lady Head and my daughter
sharing equally with them the accommodation, remained on
board one of these two crowded vessels until the Mayor of
Toronto, aceempanied by several of the principal eitizene,
far from entertaining the feelings described, came alongside
to congratulate them "loudly" on the defeat of the rebels:
The Bishop of Toronto, and the principal families residing in
that city, if appealed to, will, I am sure, certify that the above
statement is correct; and that the assertion in the Edinburgh
Review, that " the other families in Toronto had no such
means of refuge" as I procured for my own, is perfectly
untrue.
Besides which, independent of my own personal feelings, I
surely need hardly observe what political importance would
have been attached by the rebels to the capture by them of
any member of my family.
2. It is stated in the Edinburgh Review, page 363, and sub-
sequently reiterated, that Sir Robert Peel " repelled all Sir
Francis Head's attempts at intimacy," " nor would he take
any step in the way of giving Sir Francis that reward
for his services which the latter most urgently pressed on
him."
The facts of this case are as follow :—On my return from
Canada I was living in Warwickshire, in my usual retire-
ment, when Sir Robert Peel did me the honour to call upon
me; and, at his invitation, I twice spent a few days at Dray-
ton. This slight acquaintance, however, sickened and died
in consequence, I suppose, of my having opposed the Parlia-
mentary course which Sir Robert Peel felt it his duty to take
with respect to the Canada Union Bill.
After he had been Prime Minister upwards of a year, I,
one day, briefly mentioned to him that as, at the request of
the Government, I had given up a permanent appointment
to go to Canada, as I bad received, during the present reign,
no acknowledgment whatever, pecuniary or honorary, for the
part I had taken in suppressing the rebellion in Canada, as
well as in repelling the invasion of the Americans, and as a
long list of officers who had served under me had been re
warded, I conceived I had some claim upon the country. In
reply to which, Sir Robert Peel very courteously recom-
mended me to put my ease into writing and to address it to
her Majesty's Secretary of State for the Colonies.
I never did so—neveragain troubled Sir Robert Peel with
any request for myself, and never, either before or after-
wards, asked anything from Lord Stanley. If these gentle-
men be appealed, to, they will, I feel confident, declare that
the assertions of the Edinburgh Review, as above quoted, are
incorrect.
3. It is stated in the Edinburgh Review, page 369
" For the information of readers at home, it may be as well
that we should give a succinct narrative of the circumstances
that attended M'Kenzie's attack on Toronto. Our know-
ledge of such facts as are not taken from the official accounts
has been derived from written statements given to us by
Colonel F."
For about eight pages these " statements" are quoted at
tedious length, in order to blame me in every possible way
fur not having attacked Mr. M'Kenzie, &c„ &e., &c., accord-
ing to the advice of this officer.
It is, therefore, necessary that I should disabuse the public
by reluctantly stating, what is perfectly well known
throughoutin Upper Canada, namely, that the gallant militia
Colonel
question, from excessive zeal and loyalty,
gradually became so excited that on the day after the defeat of
the rebels it was necessary to place him under medical
treatment ; that during his illness I in vain endeavoured,
by every possible act of personal kindness, to remove
from his mind a strange idea that I was his enemy ;
and that although he eventually recovered, this idea conti-
nued to haunt him so incessantly that when, a year after-
wards, on his visiting England, I was from feelings of regard
about to call upon him, I was earnestly warned by a Cana-
dian now at Toronto not to do so.
Now is it creditable that under such circumstances the
written statements" and opinions of this brave and worthy
individual should have. been selected as the foundation of an
elaborate attack upon me ?
4. It is stated in the Edinburgh Review, page 382, " That
having quarrelled with Colonel F. and every independent
person who had once acted under him—have disgusted the
old officers of the army and navy by ordering them to serve
as privates under the lawyers and merchants' clerks of
Toronto, Sir F. Head was entirely in the hands of the family
compact.' Commissions in the militia were given to every
relation and hanger-on of the principal members of the Go-
vernment. One regiment is said to have been entirely offi-
cered by persons of the same family name. Prefltable con-
tracts enriched others of the favoured conitexiou."
Now, I never for a moment quarrelled with Colenel F. On
the contrary, on my arrival in Downing• street from Canada
I respectfully, but most earnestly, urged Lord Glenelg 'to

reward him ; and, as regards the rest of the charge, I feel
confident that it appealed to, the old officers of the army
and navy, as well as the Adjotant-General of the militia of
Upper Canada, who was offictily cognisant of every appoint-
ment, will certify that the above assertions in the Edinturgh
Revielo, especially that relating to a regiment having been
entirely officered by persons of the same family name, are a
series tf untruths.
Now, it will naturally. be asked, " From what source has
the Edinburgh Review ventured to assail the character of a
retired public servant by a series of such unfounded asser-
tions?'"fhe writer of these calumnies solves this mystery
himself.

After, in page describing the ringleaders of the rebels
as •" the popular leaders," and the gallant men who defeated
them as "the iliiberalparty," he says (see pa.e 380). "the
American Sutherland, who was one of the leaders of the ex-
pedition to Navy Island, when subsequently a prisoner at
Quebec, gave the writer of this article the following account
of the affair of Navy Island, of which, as misrepresentation
could not in any way serve him, there is no reason to doubt
the coraectness. In all its main points it was exactly corro-
borated by a statement which an informant of ours received
from Van Ransalaer, Sutherland, and about twenty-three
others."

Now, Sutherland I committed to gaol at Toronto beer e
the writer of this article" visited him when under sentence
of transportation ; " he was a prisoner at Quebec," and Van
Ransalaer for nearly a year had been lying in the gaol cf
Albany, in the United States!
How many of the "twenty-three other persons" whom
"the writer of this article" cites in evidence against me were
convicted traitors whose prjects I had defeated and whose
proOects I had ruined, he has not deemed it advisable to
state. He only informs us that as they "exactly corrobo-
rated " the statements of Van Ransalaer and Sutherland,
"there is no reason to doubt the correctness."

In the strange admixture of impersonal testimony, of ano-
nymous witnesses, of evidence collected from gaols, of special
pleading, and of total disregard of truth and decency which
characterise the article before us, the British public will, no
doubt, at once recognise the old materials of that unfortu-
nate mass, or rather mess, of mis-statements, commonly
called "Lord Durham's Report."—l am, Sir, your obedient
servant, F. B. HEAD.

Atheimum, April 24, 1847.

BRISTOL LIBERAL ASSOCIATION
A special genii-al meeting of the susbcribers to the
Liberal Registration Association was held last (Friday)
night at the Tailors' Hall, Broad-street, for the purpose
of receiving a report on the Parliamentary register of
this city, and considering the steps to be taken in anti-
cipation of the near approach of a general election.
There was a highly-respectable attendance, and the chair
was taken by G. Thomas, Esq.
The Chairman having briefly opened the pro:Tedings,
T. MILLS, Esq., read the following
REPORT.

" The committee of the Bristol Liberal Registration
Association have taken upon themselves the responsibi-
lity of calling the present meeting, because, it being
generally understood that a few months will terminate
the present Parliament, the time has arrived for the
Liberal party in this city to enter on that calm delibe-
ration and friendly consultation as to the course to be
punned, which may best ensure united action and a
successful result.

" Before, however, entering upon this duty, the corn
mittee cannot but congratulate the Liberal party on the
very favourable position it now occupies. Instead of
having to struggle, as it were, for existence, it now
commands an undoubted and substantial majority on the
register; and, what is yet fur more satisfactory, the truth
of the great principles for which it has su long con-
, tended is now admitted tiy many of these formerly op-
posed to them. The abatement of that bitter party feel-
, log which at one time prevailed must be also matter of
much gratification. Even those who still continue
opposed to our principles now admit that we honestly
sought to carry them out. Another topic of pleasurable
comment is afforded in the universal admission, that the
representative twice chosen by the Liberal .arty has
been, not only a faithful and able exponent of their prin-
ciples, but has also proved himself one of the moat at-
tentive, unwearied, and efficient members that ever sat
for this city. Mr. Berkeley has been the representative
of Liberal opinions; he has also been, in the most em-
phatic sense of the words, menater for Bristol.
And this brings your committee to a consideration
of the important subject ror which this meeting has been
summoned. A dissolution of Parliament is at band.
What course shall the Liberal party adopt? Your com-
mittee, whilst disclaiming the remotest intention of dic-
tating that course, hope that they cossess so much of
your confidence as may entitle them to offer you a few
suggestions.
" They presume that the general voice of the Liberals
of Bristol will call on Mr. Berkeley again to offer himself.
They entertain not, the slightest doubt that he will,
again, for the third time be returned. The state of the
resister, the rapid growth of Liberal principles, the
universal opinion that Mr. Berkeley has done his duty
to the city for the ten years he has been in Parliament
as its representative, render his position impregnable.
Mr. Berkeley, then, being secure, the question arises,
shall the Liberals take any or no part in the selection of
a colleague for that gentleman ? Undoubtedly their
numbers and their influence entitle them to a voice po-
tential in the matter ; but having asserted and main-
tained their right to a share in the representation of the
city, your committee would suggest to you that, under
present circumstances, it is not advisable to bring for-
ward a; second candidate, unless unforeseen circum-
stances should compel them so to do. At the same time
your committee would urgently impress upon every
Liberal elector the absolute necessity of not promising
his second vote.
" Your committee cannot close this report without ad
verting to the only matter which at all partakes of an
unsatisfactory nature. Your association is in debt
3121. 13s. 7d. Your committee cannot b:ing themselves
to believe that the liberals of Bristol will allow this
small sum any longer to remain undischarged. When
the admitted utility of the object for which the associa-
tion was formed, namely, that of placing upon the re-
gister and afterwards defending his right to be there,
every Liberal in the borough, without distinction is
borne in mind ; when it is recollected how successfully
that object has been obtained ; when it is considered that
the provident outlay of a comparatively small amount
in registration may save a vast expenditure at
an election ; when it is remembered how much-
of the trouble, anxiety, and expense has devolved
on a few of your body, your committee confidently hope
that this meeting (more especially those of their friends
who have not hitherto assisted them) will furnish them
with the means of discharging the liabilities referred to,
and thus enable them to proceed with renewed vigour
and increased willingness in the path they have hitherto
pursued, namely, that of upholding your rights, defend-
ing your interests, and securing your being heard and
listened to in the great councils of the nation."
W. TOTUILL, Esq., in moving the adoption of the re-
port, strongly urged upon the liberal party the import-
ance of their withholding any promise of their second
vote. As the report stated, there was no present prospect
or intention of bringing forward a second Liberal candi
date ; but it was rumoured that there was a contest con-
templated between the candidate who was delets7ed at
the last election and the present Tory Member, and cir-
cumetances might vary. The most likely course to
preserve the Felice of the city would be to let their
opponents see c hat they would give no support to either
of their candidates, in which case the weaker party,
seeing their chance hopeless, would think it wise to save
their time and their money.—(Hear.)
F. TERRELL, Esq., secondea the motion, which was
unanimously adopted.
The CHAIRMAN then called the attention of the meet-
ing to the importance of wiping off the debt which at
present stood against the association, and which had
accrued in censequenc of the close aitcntu.n which had
been paid to the registration, and by means of which the
Liberal party had been placed in a position to whichit
had never before attained.
Mr. VISGER moved a resolution to the effect that a
subscription, to clear off the debt, should he at once
entered upon. Mr. Visger addressed the meeting in an
eloquent strain in reference to the present proud position
in which the Liberals stood as a party, tact only in this
city, but throughout the kingdom; the means by which
that position had been attained; and the course by
hich it was to be maintained and impreyed. As a party
they stood higher than ever—(Hear)—they had obtained
a large majority on the register, and a moral position
they had never before occupied; they had seen their
principles carried out by those who had opposed them in
their early struggles to advance, and in this city they
had seen the once dominant Tory party split up and
divided. They (the Liberals) had no intention to cause
a contest; but, as one might be forced upon them, it
would be desirable that they should not entangle them-
selves in any struggle on the other side, but hold their
second votes in their own hands.—(Cheers.) Their
present position had been obtained by the unceasing
attention which had been paid to the registration, espe-
cially by their respected Chairman and their active and
zealous secretrry, Mr. Gilbert—(Cheers)—and they had
only to continue and increase the efforts they bad
hitherto so successfully used in order to maintain and
improve their present exalted position.—(Cheers.)
11. PRITEUARD, Beg., seconded the resolution, which
was adopted nem. con.
A subscription was then opened, and, in the course of
a very few minutes, about 1501. was raised—a large por-
tion of it by small sums.
Thanks were then vote d to the Chairman, who, in
returning thanks, expressed his confidence in the speedy
liquidation of the debt. The meeting then broke up.

NEWSPAPER ACTIVITY.—The Rainbow, Captain
Benjamin, from New York, in passing the Irish coast, sent
by a fishing boat a file of the New York Journal of Commerce
into the Cove of Cork, from which the Cork Reporter, in its
paper of Sa:urilay, the 24th, published the American news
brought by her. At the same hour, and on the same day,
all the London Morning Papers, and the Glasgow North
British Mail, published at great length the same news, which
was landed at Liverpool on the previous evening. We may
further observe that the London Morning Papers, contain-
ing the above-mentioned news, were circulating in Birm-
ingham, Manchester, and Liverpool, as early as the Cork
Reporter's account appeared in that city I.—Liverpool Euro-
pean Times.

KING'S COLLEGE.—Saturday afternoon the annual
distribution of prizes took place in the medical department
of this institution. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cam-
bridge, the Earl of Eldon, the Bishop of London, the
Bishop of Winchester, the Rev. Dr. Sheppard, and the
Rev. Dr. Jelf, Principal of the College, were present
The Bishop of London presided. A report was read
which gave a most encouraging view cf the prosperous'
state of the school. A nwnber of prizes were then given to
those students who had made the greatest proficiency in their
various departments of medical study, and a vote of thanks
being given to the Right Hon. Chairman, on the motion of
the Duke of Cambridge, the meeting separated.
