YOUNG COLLINS, THE JOCKEY.—It is a singular coinci-
dence that for two years in succession a Goodwood horse
should not only win the Newmarket Handicap, but be
very near carrying off the Metropolitan too; and naturally
enough, that circumstance, coupled with the quarrel between
the trainer and the rider of Cheerful, is exciting a good deal
of conversation in sporting circles. Kent, it seems, has lost
the services of his smartest light weight, through some
exhibition of temper on the part of his son, and it is much
to be regretted that somebody is attacking the unimpeach-
able character of the youthful jockey through the medium
of the advertising columns of the Street Calendar. Such an
exhibition of spite is unworthy of honourable men, and now
that it is acknowledged that no censure whatever can attach
to the lad, it is to be hoped he will be allowed to serve others
as well and as zealously as he has hitherto served the pa-
trons of the Goodwood stable.

APPROACHING MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE We
understand that the accomplished daughter of Rear-Ad-
miral the lion. F. F. Berkeley, C.B , M.P., one of the
Lords of the Admiralty, and niece of the Duke of Richmond,

Captain Armytage, of the Guards, son of Colonel Army.
