Miss Harrison was the first to make play, but after leading
at a miserable pace, for about half a mile, was passed by Flat-
catcher, who went on with a lead of three or four lengths at a
capital pace, to the bottom of the course, where Besborough
and Canezou, who had been lying in the centre, took the
second and third positions, and the interval between them
and their leader rapidly diminished. Besborough was
beaten at the Gravel road, and Canezou went on in waiting
on the favourite, whom she caught and headed half way up
the distance, and won in a very clever style by a length,

pected.

CRICKET.

THE ELETEN OF ALL ENGLAND v. TWENTY OF
DERBYSHIRE AND DISTRICT.

This grand match was resumed on Wednesday, at Derby,
and, as will be seen, was eventually "drawn " without both
parties having had an innings, in consequence of the wetness
of the-weather. There was another, and the most powerful
reason too, why the game could not be played out, namely,
the fact that the " All England Eleven " were compelled to
set Mr fur Manchester, where they were to commence their
match against the Fifteen yesterday (Thursday) morning.
We fear that. poor Dakin, fur whoa► the snatch was made,
will not have derived any benefit from the affair. However,
the elements arc not within the control of human "powers.
The final score was as follows -

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PLYMOUTH, Auc. 23.---The Hermes steamer, Martin
master, sailed last evening for Portsmouth, from whence
she will take supernumeraries to Cork, and then return
to this port.
The •SouthampftM, 50, fitting at Chatham, for the
Cape of Good Hope station, will be paid advance at
this port.
Admiral Sir William Hall Gage struck his flag on
board the San Josef on Monday, and proceeded on leave
of absence; the duty of the port devolves an Admiral
Superintendent Sir John Louis.
The Admiralty have determined that only one of the
advance ships at each port is to retain its lower masts,
and that all the rest shall be taken out, and carefully
stowed away in the dockyard. It has also been deter-
mined that a frigate, as well:as a line-of-battle ship, shall
retain her masts, and the Calcutta and the America are
selected at this port.
THE SQUADRON OF EXERCISE.
CORK, AUG. 21.—The Tweed corvette, 18 guns, Com-
mander Lord Francis Russell, arrived yesterday from
Waterford, whence she brought a number of the
Royal Marines, detached from the fleet on the ex-
pected outbreak on that part of the coast. This day a
gale has been blowing so furiously that all the fleet
have been lying with both anchors down and top-gal-
lant masts on deck. Sir Charles Napier's squadron,
comprising the St. Vincent, 120 guns, Captain S. C.
Decree (flag-ship); the Prince Regent, 90, Captain W. F.
Martin ; the Bellerophon, 80, Captain R. L. Baynes,
C. 8.; the Amphion, 34, Captain W. J. Williams ; the
Tweed, 18, Commander Lord Francis Russell ; the
Stromboli steam sloop, 6, Commander Lord A. W.
Beauclerk ; the Helena, 16, Commander G. W. Smith ;
and the Frolic, 16, Commander Vansittart, will sail on
an evolutionary cruise when the weather moderates, and
will be joined by the Blenheim, 55, steam-ship, Captain
H. D. Chads, C. 8., and the Pilot, 16, Commander E. M.
Lyons. The steam-ship Amphion had met with an
accident to her best anchor ; the partidulars are not
stated.
DOCKYARD BATTALIONS.—The recent order of the
Horse Guards, and the accompanying recommendation
from the Admiralty authorities to these bodies, to salute
a la militaire all naval and military officers whom they
may meet when in uniform, has produce 3 considerable
discontent in several of these bodies. The men generally
have no objection to salute their own officers whenever
they meet them, but they object to pay homage to mili-
tary and naval officers not attached to their corps. The
last instance of refusal to cede the complimentary salutes
to the "regulars" occurred when the order veal, read to
the Portsmouth battalion, the boat brigade of Which force
steadily and almost unanimously shouted "No," when
asked on parade to comply with the order.
WooLwictr, Am. 24.—The Monkey steam-vessel,
Master Commander W. Bryant returned from Sheerness
yesterday evening, after the artival of the Sharpshooter,
and entrance to that port, and the former vessel towed
the Adventure transport steam store-ship to Deptford
this morning.
The Lot ds Commissioners of the Admiralty, in con-
sideration of the valuable services of Mr. Bellamy,
Assistant-Master Attendant at Woolwich Dockyard,
have promoted him to be Master-Attendant, andop-
pointed him to Woolwich Dockyard, rice Elson;ride-
ceased.

PLYDIOUTII, AUG. 23.—The new Belgian ship Clotilda,
Captain Brebander, 800 tons, from Antwerp on the sth
instant, bound to New York, put in here last night,
having, on Sunday night, the 20th instant, off the Scilly
Islands, encountered a heavy gale from S.S.W., which
hove the ship on her beam•ends, and compelled the crew
to cut away her gear. She has lost her bowsprit, fore-
mast about 20 feet from the deck, maintopgal!ant mast,
maintopmast, and all the sails and rigging attached, top-
gallant rails and bulwarks, headruils, berthing, &c. The
Clotilda has 250 German and Prussian emigrant pas-
sengers, who pay 140 f. Swiss, or about nine lonia d'or
each for passage, including rations.
THE ROYAL MARINE CORPS.

THE COMMAND OF THE PORTSMOUTH DIVISION.—
by
hasth e voluntary
been
conferred retirement
upon of
Colonel
This appointment,
Thoinpo vacant
Colonel Charles Menzies, second Commandant of Chat-
ham division. This officer entered upon the duties of
Aslett,
his advanced post on Tuesday, and yesterday made an
elaborate inspection of the various departments of his
division. Colonel Menzies is an officer of much merit,
as will be seen by the record of his services in the Army
and Navy Lists. He was first lieutenant, and com-
manded a detachment, and landed at Port Jackson dur-
ing an insurrection of convicts in 1804, and was mainly
instrumental in restoring tranquillity in the colony.
lie served in the boats of the Minerva at the cap-
ture of five luggers protected by a battery, in Finisterre
Bay; was in the barge at the capture of the Spanish pri-
vateer Buena Dicha, of one long gun, and 26 men; com-
manded a boat at the capture of the Spanish gun-boat at
Carril, and commanded the marines at the storming of
Fort Finisterre in 1806-7; served in boats at the capture
of the Spanish national vessel of war San Josef, and
landed and made prisoner the Spanish commodore; was
in command of the marines at the capture of Fort
Guardia, and slightly wounded in cutting out the French
corvette Mozelle in Basque Roads; he served at the
taking of Fort Camarinas, and gun-boats, and was re-
peatedly engaged in boat actions and against batteries.
Colonel Aslett was Second Lieutenant, serving in the
Montagu at Camperdown.

SOUTHAMPTON, THURSDAY, AUG. 24.—The Penin-
sular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's ship
Indus, Captain Soy, with the homeward East India,
China, and Mediterranean mails, may be expected here
about Sunday next, provided she has not been detained
at Malta to perform quarantine, in consequence of the
cholera raging in Egypt at the date of her departure
from Alexandria. The Jupiter, Captain F. Meehan, is
appointed to take out the next Spanish and Portugues
mails. The 27th falling on Sunday, the mails will be
made up in London on the morning of the 28th, and the
Jupiter will take her departure on Monday. The Sultan,
Captain Brooks, will sail on Sunday, for Gibraltar,
Malta, Constantinople, and the Black Sea ports. The
steam ship Queen (lately running on the Peninsular
line) has been sent to Constantinople, to run between that
port and the Island of Candia, as a privateer steamer.
The Tagus, Captain R. W. Evans, is to sail on Tues-
day, the 29th, for Gibraltar, Genoa, Leghorn, and Ci-
vita Vecchia. Tho new steam•ship Malta, Captain S.
Lewis, will leave this about the Ist of September, for
India, to take up her station in carrying her Majesty's
mails between Ceylon and Hong-Kong. The Royal
Mail Steam Packet Company's ship Forth is appointed
to take out the West India and Mexican mails of the
2d proximo. Steamships in dock—Forth, Great Wes-
tern, Jupiter, Iberia, Montrose, Sultan, Malta, and
Tagus. The American barque Attica, Captain
M‘Lellan, with 2,750 boxes of white sugar from Ma-
tanzas, arrived off Cowes yesterday, for orders, and the
American barque Aquila, Captain New, with sugar
from Havannah, sailed yesterday for St. Petersburgh.
KING'S COLLEGE HOSPITAL.—We have been :in-
formed that the Committee of Management of King's
College Hospital have succeeded in purchasing a large
plot of ground, on which they propose to erect a new
hospital on such a scale as will afford ample accommoda-
tion for the suffering poor of the densely-populated dis-
trict around it. The ground extends from Carey-street
to Clement's-lane, and is of considerable size. This is
a very important acquisition, not only for the hospital,
which now occupies a high position among the charitable
institutions of the metropolis, but also for the neigh-
bourhood, which cannot fail to be greatly improved by
the removal of the old decaying houses now standing
upo❑ the ground and the erection of a handsome build-
ing instead of them. A new street has been long talked
of i❑ this locality to relieve the overthronged thorough..
fare of the Strand ; and we cannot help thinking that
the Commissioners of Metropolitan Improvements, if
disposed to act in conjunction with the authorities of
the hospital, might find their objects much facilitated by
this new acquisition on the part of the committee.
The Queen and Prince Albert have jointly sub-
scribed 501. to the fund for building and endowing a
church at York Town, for the benefit of the Royal Mili-
L tary College and its :neighbourhood. The Queen Dow-
ager has also subscribed 50/,, and many noblemen and
military officers educated at that institution have libe-
rally contributed to the fund, which now amounts to
1,9001., about 9001. more being required to complete the

undertaking.
RURAL FETE AT OSBORNE.—Her Majesty gives a
grand fete at the marine palace of Osborne, Isle of
Wight, to-morrow, in honour of the Prince Consort's
birthday, to the chief of the neighbouring. gentry and
the naval and military Commanders-in-Chief of Ports-
mouth, the Admiral-Superintendent, and the Captains
of the Fleet, &c.

[PRICE SD.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL ;NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO 7 HREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were
5,000 hales, all to the trade. American realised 30. to
4d. per lb. There was 2 good supply. Railway Shari-s.
were firm, and had an upward tendency, but only a h-
i suited business was done.
The accounts received from various parts of the coun-
tr) upon the subject of the crops are more satisfactory
ii,eon the whole, though particular districts, and espi -
wally in the f:outli of England, appear to have suffered
materially. The supplies of grain at market ure very
limited, and there is an advance again of ls. per quarter
in wi.eat.
There are no Colonial arrivals, and the Continental
advices are fur the most part cf a satisfactory tenor.
In Belgium arrangements are to be made for simplify-
ing the administration of the finances. In France there
are appearances of life as regards several departments
of trade. Communications have passed between the
Governments at Paris and Copenhagen respecting the
seizures of vessels owned by French subjects, and very
satisfactory explanations have been afThrded ; but as the
blockade becomes stricter, greater difficulty is experi•
enced in distinguishing cargoes, and the Danish Go-
vernment has accordingly laid down very particular in-
structions on the subject, with which parties interested
will do well to make themselves acquainted.
The Money Market is more buoyant to-day, although
there is much anxiety felt for the financial explanations
of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, opinions being con-
flicting as to his probable wants. We believe that the
Government itself is not yet in a position to state what
may be required for Ireland, but each day of fine
weather subtracts from the amount, and it might hap-
pily result that no supply whatever would be needed.
The Funds have been quiet, but are to 4 per
cent. better than yesterday, confirming what we
have for some days past stated, that there is
a disposition, whenever appearances are at all favour-
able, to operate for as ...advance in prices. Consols
have been 86k to for transfer, and 86k to -1 for ac-
count. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have
been 86k to 87k, and the Three per Cents. 86k to 861.
Exchequer-bills have been 325. to 355. premium, and
India Bonds 235. premium.
The Foreign market has been better. Spanish Five
per Cents. have realised 121 to 12i. Portuguese Four
per Cents. have advanced to 19 and 20k, and Peruvian
are at 30. Mexican are nominally 16+ to 17. Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 44-i to
The Railway Share Market is more animated, and at
enhanced prices for North-Western, Midland, Brighton.
South-Eastern, and the York lines. Caledonian con-
tinue flat. Eastern Counties and Great Western are
steady, The French lines are without alteration.
