WORCESTER. -- Of the twenty-two acceptances for
the Grand Annual, which will be run on Friday next,
the 3d proximo,' a field of fifteen or sixteen may be ex-
pected' to start. Last year the number was sixteen ;
but Chandler, who, in November, 1847, with Captain
Little, lOst 101 b, was the winner, being this time pe-
nalized for his victories at Leamington (1-Ist 121 b), and ,
at Liverpool (11st 181 b), with the topping or stopping
weight of 12st 71b, is withdrawn. ProCeed (winner at
Wakefield, with I Ist 41b up) now heads the list at
12st 21b, but is a doubtful goer. In the betting, Verax
(9st 71b) holds first place at 8 to 1; Peter Simple
<lost 71b), Linkboy (10st), and Thurgarton (10st 41b),
next sharing public favour at 10 to 1 each. Royston.
Gower (9st) may be quoted at 12 to 1, and *Repealer
(10st 41b) at 14 to 1. Verax is undoubtedly well! in
JO Repealer is a . dangerous horse to stand hea‘il;
against; yet there is an animal not mentioned in 'the
market list, hight Justice to England, which we cannot
help expecting
.to prove an' antithesis to his two-thirds
namesake, Justice to Ireland, on whom we would ;re-
commend a long shot to be stood. His•welght, fst 101 b,
ie moderate, and if our Northamptonshire friendi be
good judges, is a staunch nag across country.
For the Handicap Hurdle Race, of the twenty-one
horses weighted ten accept and eleven forfeit. Tbe ac-
ceptances are as follow:—Cavendish, I Ist 101b—Jack,

THE 'NEW MEMBER POE LYNN.—Lord Alexander
Lennox has declined the honour of becoming a candi-
date for the representation of the borough of Lynn. It
would appear that the Protectionists and the Peelites—
or the." Jocelynites;" as the latter are called in those
parts,-determined to prolong the family fend, were
divided in their choice of a candidate, and an opposition in
the Conservative' camp was threatened if either section
should persist in naming its man. Lord Alexander
Lennox wisely refused to be a party to any division of
interests, and accordingly both sides have again taken
counsel together, and, as one body, finally agreed to in-
vite the son of Lord Stanley to become the successor of
Lord George Bentinck. The Hon. W. Stanley need not
fear to tread in the steps of any man, be he who he may,
as time will show; but we warn Conservatives, whether
of Lynn or condo[. to be men, flat children, in their ge-
neration: Is it fitting that in days like these, there should
be the bickerings of women upon every. small occasion,
and that loyal men should be dwelling upon past griev-
ances and old antipathies, whilst the country N; ri,; for
' all the aid"that united wisdom, intelligence, end honesty
can give her?—John Bull.
