DONCASTER RACES.
MONDAY EVENING.
A variety of circumstances have arisen during the last
three or four months to diminish the ordinary attrac-
tions of the race-course. As the most powerful
we may select the general elections and the depressed
state of trade in all parts of the country. These causes
materially affect Doncaster, as well as places of less
note, but others of a local and peculiar character may be
mentioned. Many of the ancient supporters of Don-
caster have settled their accounts, and some, whose names
were wont to appear as its zealous patrons, have with-
drawn altogether from the turf. This is not all—the ex-
traordinary ease with which the Derby was won des-
troyed the St. Leger as a betting race, and had not that
been the case the minions character of the settling
would have produced the same effect. Another
blow to the present meeting was the omission
of the stewards of 1340 to appoint their sue•
cessors ; the Corporation, it is true, made a large addition
to the public money, as originally advertised ; and were
assisted with a liberal plate by the innkeepers, but too'
late to counteract the combined influence of so many
" untoward events." Prepared, therefore, for a falling
off in their present meeting, they have resolved to pre-
vent any cause of complaint for the future. It is in-
tended, we believe, to lose no time in procuring Stewards
for 1842 (relieving them from the pecuniary responsibi-
lities hitherto coupled with the office), to make such al-
terations at the stand as may be considered essential to
the comfort of the visitor, and to provide liberally for
the public prizes ; if they do this in time we see no
reason why Doncaster, reduced to four days, should not
recover from what, we trust, is only a temporary depres-
sion. It will be collected from the above remarks that the
races commenced this afternoon under indifferent auspices.
The weather was certainly all that could be desired, but
the list " held the word of promise to the ear, but broke
it to the hope," six races in appearance having dwindled
down to three in reality, and those of a very unpretend-
ing character. The company was thin, the betting dull
in the extreme. We should mention here, that a space
has been inclosed in front of the Grand Stand, for the
accommodation of the speculators, but being level with
the course, is not available for a view of the running ;
we understand that, by next year, it will i❑ this respect
be placed on a par with Epsom, Ascot, Goodwood, and
Liverpool. Amongst the occupants were the Duke and
Duchess of Cleveland, the Marquis of Westminster, Mar-
quis of Waterford, Marquis of Normanby, Marquis of
Lichfield, Earl Spencer, Earl of Chesterfield, Lord

AN ADDRESS TO THE CLERGY
OF THE ESTABLISHED CHURCH OE ENG-
LAND ON THE EFFECTS (ii" A scAli,erry
OF row), &c. By A PIIVSICIAN.

1

4 iris Is a well-timed pamphlet, in which the
Author traces the epidemics of 1740. 1741, 1816,
to the deficiency of rued, and produces m any
medical authorities to prove the terrible effects
on the health of the poor by being stinted in
their diet. \lyre quote the concluding paragel.phs
of the work:—
It is a common observation that one-half of mankind
know not how the other half lives. What a sad. condi-
mation of this saying do these pages contain ! It is
difficult for those who have never telt privations (3f.' the
most essential necessaries of life, to abstract them.eelves
from their own condition, and thoroughly appreciate :he
state of those who want. It is too true that we are.
thankless for blessings in proportion to their common-
ness. The common air we breathe, the universal
are seldom viewed as beneficent gifts from God ; yet, by
what a precarious tenure do we hold them both. The
dispsition is universal to enjoy the advantages and'. com-
forts t,f our situation in life, without distresshw our-
selves Reich about those whose hard lot has de 3rived
them of ;hi ngs which are common to us. The teivial-
ties of foots and clothing arc received with little con-
cern for the poor who starve with cold, and are
famishing with hunger; and it requires calamities like
these I have been desceibinre to rouse us to a bet ter
feeling. Yet . the usual , and constant condition of the:
poor callseloudly for our active sympathy. . It is team
there are signs of late years that a better state of mind
has arisen among us, and that the poor are becoming
more and more a subject of study for the rich, I hail.
this feeling and rejoice at it. Nothing so likely to give.
us dignity as a ration, and happiness as a society. We•
owe mach of this feeling to the clergy of the present
day; and I trust we shall owe you the greater service or
aiding to rouse the attention of all men to the present
dangerous situation-of our country. At the moment at.
which I write, the heavens are portentous with disaster:.
It may please the Almighty, in his wisdom, to dissipate
these threatening clouds, and bless the fields with plenty..
But shall we deserve a continuance of his goodness if,,
with a perfect knowledge of the ;actual state of the poor,.
we do not use every exertion to ameliorate their condi-•
Lion, and make the first necessaries of life as common..
and abundant as possible.
The mind admits with pain and reluctance the idea.
of a great wrong- conimitted upon the laborious, the
il.,,norans, and helpless classes of society, whom it is our
iuty encourage and protect. When I sat down t 9

ABERGAVENNY.-SHOCKING ACCIDENT.--
In the course of the present summer two or three light
pleasure boats have been placed on the river Usk, and
on Satiirday evening last a party of five young men and
boys got into one of them moored above the. Aber-
gavenny bridge, the river being very high at the time.
Scarcely had they taken their seats, not having time, we
believe, even to pick up the oars, before they were
drawn into the middle of the stream, and the boat coining
in contact with the bridge, it was completely split from
stem to stern, the whole of the persons being thrown into
the river. Their names were J James Edwards, a grown-
up young man, and George Edwards. his brother,
David Barton, James Barris, and James Freeman ;
the first, third, and last named managed to get out,.
with the aid of some of the . spectators, but
George Edwards,promising a youth of fourte en years
of age (a son of Mr. Edwards, of the Gasouietor), was
but once seen in a deep pool below the bridge. His
body has not since been found. The river was
dragged that night and during the neat day, wheat the
body of James Harris was found on a bed of sand nearly
a quarter of a mile from the spot. The search has since
continued daily for the body of George Edwards, but
without suecess.—Hereford Times.

STATE OF TRADE AND CommEncE.---There
were no additional failures of any consequence in Ll'ver-
pool during the last week, and the demand for cot ton,
sugar, and some other articles, was pretty good, but the
accounts from the manufacturing districts of Lancatiiire
continue unfavourable. The splendid weather of the last
four days, which xvill enable the farmers in Scotland Lud
the north of England to secure a large portion of thl'ir
grain in very. good order, is more in favour of the
country than anything else, but we fear that it comes too
late to give us a full crop, though in time to avert an kt--
mense amount of additional suffering from the counNry.
—Liverpool 7 imes.
Da. DILLON.—Our readers may remember
our review of the famous Lord Mayor's voyage up the.
river, by this gentleman, whose name has since made a
great noise in literary and ecclesiastical circles. On
Wednesday he attended in the Consistory Court to
answer the allegations of Mrs. Dillon, in the suit insti-
tuted by him. flis answer, given upon oath, was a most
direct denial of all that had been imputed to him in re-
gard to suborning a witness, and having overlooked gut
alleged misconduct of his lady. We hear that the cir-
cumstances which led to the discovery are very remark-
able ; and some surprise has been expressed at the omis-
sion of all mention of the Rev. Gentleman's answer in.
the Journals which gave circulation to the charge pre-

ferred against him.2-ILiterary Gazette.
BANK OF IssuE.—The second Report of the.
Committee on Banks of Issue has been published h3r
order of the House of Commons, which states in sub-
stance that it is impossible for them to give that considee-
ration to the many points suggested in the evidence al-
ready before them which would enable them to report:
any well-grounded opinion to the House. They are
aware that this may cause disappointment, but on
questions of so much importance they prefer caution.
to satisfying the demand for a Report. They refer to
the House to decide on the propriety of prosecuting the:
inquiry in the subsequent Session.

MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR (OF HONOUR.—Our
recent letterfrom Malta mention an affair of honour
which had just taken place in that island, and which ap-
pears to have excited a great sensation in Valette. The
brother of a Noble Duke (Lord Sussex Lennox) arrived
in the Great Liverpool, under an assumed name, at.
Malta, and having immediately waited on Major S. H.
(Major S. J. Hodgson), one of the 19th Regiment, and all
preliminaries having been arranged, proceeded to fight a
duel with another military gentleman holding a situation
in the staff of that garrison (Capt. Norcote, of the Rifle
Brigade, Military Secretary). Lord Sussex Lennox
fired without effect, and his adversary having discharged
his pistol in the air, his Lordship was with difficulty in-
duced to listen to an accommodation, the terms of which
are said to be of a somewhat singular description. This
done, Lord Sussex Lennox left the next day for England.
During the time*the parties were on the ground they did
exchange a syllable. The circumstances in which
the dispute originated, together with the correspondence
will, it is further affirmed, in all probability, be pub-
lished. The affair was the topic of conversation at
Malta when the mail came away.— United Service Gazette 5
