MUSICAL GOSSIP.

llenri llerz, the distinguished pianist and celebrated
composer, intends visiting America in the autumn. lie
will start on the 25th of September from Liverpool, and
will make a tour of the United States. Madame Per-
siani is engaged for two years by the impresario of the
opera at Madrid. Molique states, in a letter from Stitt-
gard, dated July 9, that he proposes visiting London
with his daughter (a clever pianist) early next season,
There is some talk at her Majesty's Theatre of an en-
gagement of twelve nights with Carlotta Grisi, and
a revival of the pas de quatre. This would be a
politic step on the part of the management. Re-
port says that Mr. Lumley has purchased for
England the right of performing the much talked of
new opera of Rossini.—Musical World. Moriani has
quitted Seville, where he had been performing for some
time past, and is about to visit France ; but previous to
his doing so, he will g:.ve several representations at Bar-
celona. Ole Bull, the " Norwegeian Paganini," is now
at Marseilles, were he is giving a series of concerts to
crowded audiences. Donizetti is still in France. his
not haVirg yet returned to his native place in Italy is
not owing to any physical inability to undertake so long
u journey, but is the result of peculiar circumstances in
no way connected with the state of his mental or phy-
sical he,dth. A new ballet has been produced at the
Academic Royale dc Musique, called Betty. It is
founded upon a supposed galanterid between Charles 11,
and Betty, the daughter of the landlord of the Grand
Admiral. The first appearance of Mdlle. Fouco created
a great sensation among the habitut's of the opera, and
she promises to beco:ne no unworthy rival of some of
the first choregraphic artistes of the day.—Sunday
Times.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
TATTERSALUS.—YESTERDAY.
The business transacted yesterday was very limited, and
may be dismissed with a brief notice. It was almost en-
tirely confined to the few favourites for the Goodwood Stakes,
the other horses mentioned having been backed for such
small sums as scacely to merit a quotation. Jonathan Wild
was decidedly first favourite, 7 to 1 having been taken freely,
while similar odds, although laid in several instances against
The Hero were always offered. The St. Leger and Derby
betting was almost nominal.

In this match the Ino laboured under great disadvantage,
her mast being sprung. The Prima Donna took the lead
closely followed by the Secret, the Ino third, and in this
order they continued round the course the first time, when
the Too gave up. In going over the course the second time
the Secret gained on the Prima half a minute, the Prima
Donna still leading, and passed the Committee's boat two
minutes before the Secret, when she bore up in consequence
of a gun being fired, which the master of the Prima Donna
thought was fir the termination of the match. Tho Secret
continued the course, and an objection was made to the Prima
Donna receiving the prize, which will be entered into by the
Committee.

Turtle, till she carried away her topmast; the Saccy Lass
then taking second place, when she also carried away her
topmast, the Madcap rounding the station first by five
minutes.

Several rowing matches took place during the clay, snd
the regatta dinner took place in the evening, at the Three
Cups Hotel, which was well attended.
