ODDS AND ENDS CONCERNING BRIGHTON,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

. _
SIR.—To-day's races will be decided ere this appears
in print, therefore I will pass over them and touch upon
to-morrow's. The Brighton Cup will be contested by
Landgrave, Pitstord, The Ileriot, and, perhaps, Ninus.
General opinion, or, in other words, the betting market,
predicts that they will pass the post as I have placed
them. My opinion is already scattered far and wide.
The Marine Stakes, although booked a certainty for
Freedom, will no! be won by her ne Goodwood horse
(Harbinger, I believe), or the Flash of Lightning colt,
will eaten the judge's eye before Mr. Payne's Daughter
of Liberty. lu addition to this trio, the Pelerine filly
will be found among the runners. The betting this
morning is uncommonly brisk, speculation being in full
swing at the following prices:—Brighton Stakes-3 to 1
agst Narcissus; 7 to 2 agst Westovv; 4 to 1 agst Back-
biter; 7 to 1 each agst Cossack and Lord George; 10 to
1 agst Ctmas. Pavilion Stakes-3 to lon Freedom; 7
to 2 each agst Sulky and Hampton, the former decidedly
mischievous. Brighton Cup—Even on Landgrave; 2to
1 agst Pitstord, taken freely; 4 to 1 agst Nines; 6 to 1
;igst the Eerier ; 6to 1 agst Nutcracker. Marine
Stakes—Even on Freedom, take 6 to 4 ; 6 to 4 agst
Harbinger; 5 to 1 agst park. Trial Stakes-6 to 4
agst The Squaw; 5 to 2 each agst Duster and largel-
lina filly. Great Yorkshire Stakes-7 to 4 agst Nancy,
take 2 to 1.

DENMARK.

The Augsburg Gazette states that, though the
princes and princesses of Hesse have signed the act
by which they abandon their rights to the throne of
Denmark, and to the succession in the Duchies of
Schleswig and Holstein, the QUEEN, widow of
CHRISTIAN VIII., Princess CAROLINE AMELIA,
daughter of the sister of FREDERICK VI., the Prin-
cess CAROLINE, wife of the hereditary prince and
daughter of FREDERICK VI., have refused to do so.
And it adds, that it is positive that the Emperor of
RUSSIA, in his quality of chief of the Home of Hol-
stein Gottorp, has only given his consent to the adop-
tion of Prince CHRISTIAN, of Glucksburg, as heir pre-
sumptive to the crown of Denmark, on condition that
he shall gain the consent of all the other parties who
have a right to the succession. The EMPEROR was,
however, labouring to bring about this result.

THE GREAT EXHIBITION.

The sale of season tickets yesterday produced the sum
of 11/ 10s., and the money taken at the doors amounted
to 3,2361. 95., making, the total receipts 3.2471. 19s. The
police report stated the number of visitants to have been
68,069, including a vast gathering of teetotallers, to the
number of 20,000 and upwards. The teetotallers, who
were well disciplined in provincial music, regaled the
ears of the rest of the visitors with a Welsh song, which
produced a sensation perfectly novel in this place, and
had the effect of exciting one of the auditors to such a
degree that he made a violert attack on three women,
and in his frantic fie knocked them down before he could
be secured by the polico. The Executive Committee
have, in eousequerce of the disturbance, issue.l an order
requesting all persons to abstain from singing. The
thermometer varied in the course of the day from 65 deg.
to 74 deg, making a mean temperature of 70.4.

RESPITE FOR SARALI BARBER.---A special mes-
senger from Sir George Grey arrived in Nottingham at an
early hour yesterday (Tuesday) morning, taking with him a
reprieve of fourteen days for Sarah Barber, nntenced at the
recent assizes to be hanged on the 6th inst., for poisoning
her husband at Eastwood.

GRANTCHESTER.—NARROW ESCAPE.--On Wed-
neiday a number of mowers were engaged in a field near
this village, and from the louring appearance of the clouds,
perceived a storm was brewing; they hastened their work,
in order to reach the end of the field where some trees were
situate; ly,t before they had completed it the storm burst
and the lightning struck one of the trees, shivered it in
atoms, and left it a perfect wreck. Had the poor fellows
reached their anticipated shelter, the consequences would

AINSWORT.H. S.

Besides the miscellaneous articles usually com-
prised in Ainsworth, we have an additional instalment
of the editor's popular romance of the " Lancashire
Witches." A rather elaborate review of " Lamia "
follows, not the " Lamia " of Keats, but a novel so
called, and very recently published. A member of
the "Hard-up Club" contributes some further revela-
tions of his experiences ; while the Rev. James Bad-
deley pursues his story of the eighth century,
called " The Rose Queen," with a vigour ra-
ther increasing than abated. " John Pres-
ter," in like manner, is pursued—a serial which
we feel disposed to quarrel with for its name, seeing
that it is a somewhat impertinent transposition of the
name of a mysterious personage of history—one
whom we might almost designate a mythological
character. Various other papers of interest are com-
prised with the foregoing in the current number of
Ainsworth.

MOULTAN PRIZE MONEY.
Sir DE LACY EVANS wished to ask the Secretary
of the Board of Control when the Moult= prize money
was likely to be distributed?
Mr. WILSON said that matter was now under consi-
deration, but it was mixed up with so many complicated
questions that he was quite unable to form any idea when
the distribution would take place.
PARLIAMENTARY REFORM IN IRELAND.
Mr. E. B. ROCHE gave notice that to-morrow or on
Friday he should ask the Noble Lord at the head of the
Government the following question:—First, whether,
looking to the fact that under the new Franchise Bill
the constituencies of certain Irish boroughs had been
reduced to 8,000, and considering the unequal and
unsatisfactory state of the representation in that
country, he will include Ireland in his new Reform
Bill; secondly, whether he will consent, early next
session, to appoint a Commission to inquire into the
state of the sta,nte law in Ireland,
with thu view to its
amendment and consolidation; and, thirdly, whether he
had any objection to grant copies of any letter which
had Ven written by the Lord Chancellor, the Lord
Chief Justice, and the Attorney-General for Ireland
in
reference to the unsatisfactory state of the law in
Ireland?
SUNDAY IN THE CRYSTAL PALACE.
Col. SIBTHORP wished to ask the Government if
it was true or not that the Sabbath had been desecrated
in the Crystal Palace, by allowing parties to remove
articles from that building for the purpose of copying
them?
Mr. C. LEWIS said no articles had been removed
from the Crystal Palace on Sundays.
Colonel SIB mons, asked if parties were not allowed
to enter the building on Sundays, fur the purpose of
making sketches?
Mr. C. LEWIS could not answer that question. He
had nothing to do with the committee of management.

MAGAZINES, &c.---(CONTINUED).

NEW MONTHLY.
Cyrus Redding, among all the writers marshalled
by Harrison Ainsworth, gives us just now the most
happily timed contributions. Last month, it may be
remembered, he led off the then current number of
the periodical before us with a charming biography of
Sheil, the late Ambassador at the Court of Tuscany.
This month he has a capital paper called " The Mart
of Nations," suggested, of course, by the Industrial
Exhibition. Dudley Costello turns out to be Mr.
Jolly Green—his name being this month affixed to
the close of the serial. " All the World and his
Wife," &c., a collection of humorous chapters, closes
in a spirit to the very last degree laughable. Nicholas
Nichol progresses with his chequered tale of the for-
tunes and misfortunes of " Hester Somerset." Cap-
tain Livinge tells us all about " Mr. Longhead's
First Night at Mess ;" Mrs. Bushby translates from
the Danish, Ingemann's " Dodsseileren ; Charles
Hervey pens an amusing mélange entitled, " Cau-
series ;" J. E. Carpenter sings a few agree-
able verses about " Welcome Home ;" and Caroline
De Crespigny addresses some eulogistic lines to
" Emerson." " What happened during the late
Eclipse," will be perused with some gusto ; and, be-
sides this, we may allude, in terms of deserved praise,
to some charming criticisms on Baines's " Memoirs,"
and on Lord .I'vlaidstone's poem of " Abd-el-Kacier."

GERMANY.

The German journals say that the Diet is about to

The German journals say that it is probable that
the King of PRUSSIA and the Emperor of RUSSIA will
shortly have an interview at lio3nigsb-al,;-.
The projected visit of the Emperor of AUSTRIA to
Gallicia has been postponed, on account, it is said, of
the deliberations of the Cabinet on the affairs of
Hungary.
A letter from Vienna states that Lord PAL-
MERSTON has addressed a note to the Austrian Go-
vernment, representing that there can be no objection
to the release of Kossuxu and his companions by the
Turkish Government, as they consent to go to
America. The subject causes a frequent exchange
of communications between Vienna and Constan-

tinople.
Spener's Gazette of Berlin says it is believed in
that city that the Austrian Government will abandon
its project of introducing all its states into the Ger.
manic Confederation, as it will be irapossible for
Pru3sia, notwithstanding all her anxiety to serve
Austria, to submit to the consequences of such a
measure.

IMPROVEMENT BILL.

The amendments made by the Commons upon this Bill
were considered.
CHANCERY BUSINESS.

The Earl of HARRINGTON moved for—" 1. The
production of papers describing suits pending in the
Court ot Chancery, stating when they commenced, and
the probable period of their duration, when that can be
ascertained; also, 2, a similar return of the suits in the
winding-up courts; also, 3, a list of the suits in the
winding-up courts that have been finally settled; and
also, 4, copy of the orders passed under the administra-
ions of the Enrl ot Eldon, Lord Brougham and Vaux,
and Lord Coctenham, for the relief of the suitors in
Chancery, in order to promote cheap and speedy justice."
The LORD CHANCELLOR said that the bulk of
the returns moved for were quite impracticable, aL.d,
even if they were practicable, wou!d be of no utility.
Lord BEAUMONT recommended the Noble Earl to
postpone his motion bntil next session.
The LORI) CHANCELLOR said that the Noble Earl
was perteedy unacquainted with the orders to which he
had referred, and had hardly done himself- justice in not
having looked more into the matter before he broue;ht
it forward. The Noble Earl was quite miitok en in sup-
posing that those vrdeis had not coLisi.krably accelereLed
the progress of business in the Court of Chancery.
The ructi•in was then withdrawn.

THE GREAT EXHIBITION.

The sale of season tickets yesterday produced the sum
of 11/ 10s., and the money taken at. the doors amounted
to 3,236/. 95., making the total receipts 3,247/. 19s. The
police report stated the number of visitants to have been
68,069, including a vast gathering of teetotallers, to the
number of 20,000 and upwards. The teetotallers, who
were well disciplined in provincial music, regaled the
ears of the rest of the visitors with a
.Welsh bong, v4hich
produced a sensation perfectly novel in this place, and
had the effect of exciting one of the auditors to such a
degree that he made a violent attack on three women,
and in his frantic fit knocked them down befere he could
be secured by the police. The Executive Committee
have, in consequence of the disturbance, issued an order
requesting all persons to abstain from singing. The
thermometer varied in the course of the day from 65 deg.
to 74 deg , making a mean temperature of 70.4.

RESPITE FOR SARAH BARBER..--A special mes-
senger from Sir George Grey arrived in Nottingham at an
early hour yesterday (ruesda% ) morning, taking with him a
reprieve of fourteen days for Sarah Barber, sentenced at the
recent assizes to be hanged on the 6th inst., for poisoning
her husband at Eastwood.

GI ANTCLIESTER.---NARILOW ESCAPE.--Orl Wed-
needay a number of mowers were engaged in a field near
this village, and from the louring appearance of the clouds,
perceived a storm was brewing; they hastened their work,
in order to reach the end of the held where some trees were
situa'e; b..t before they had completed it fhe storm burst
and the lightning struck one of the trees, shivered it in
atoms, and left it a perfect wreck. Had the poor fellows
reached their anticipated shelter, the consequences would
probably have been dreadful. —CandPridge Chronick.

_NIGIITHOOD OF THE MAYOR OF LEEDS —lt 15
generally rumoured in Leeds that the honour of knighthood
is to be conferred upon our present excellent and worthy chief
magistrate, George Goodman, Esq. ; and we are glad to
learn, from good authority, that this mark of distinction will
be bestowed upon the Mayor early in the year 1552, probably
at the first levee held by her M,ijesty after the opening of the
next session of Parliament. The unanimous voice of all
parties in Leeds will say that a better selection for such an
honour could not have been made,—Leeds ittercury.

Very speedily we shall, of course, receive intelli-
gence of the triumphal reception of Louis g0,,,,TR
in the United States. Meanwhile it cannot but be
interesting to revert to the record of his proceedings
during the period of his recent sojourn in the United
Kingdom. There are already appearing in various
quarters the collected speeches delivered by that re-
markable man at the various cities of England ho-
noured_i by his appearance among their inhabitants.
Ilgrateful allusions at Winchester to the benefi-
cence displayed towards him by Turkey, America,
and Great Britarienc; his. complimentary remarks upon
the generous
Southampton
accorded to him by the
municipality ofma ; his stirring address
before the LORD and Common Councilmen
of London in the GuildhallancienOtitdel. of the metropolis ;
Lii energetic responses
en.fielr:d respectively to the
operatives at Copenhagen-fields,
citizens of Manchester, and of commer-
cial men assembled together to welcome
bofatnh.-alike
the furnaces and factories of B
reveal on his part a noble appreciation
tion as a guest in the foreiga land presided poei_
over
by the sceptre of a Constitutional Sovereign,
and the depth and earnestness of those glorious senti-
mW3 which constitute manifestly the very principle,
so to speak, of his political existence. Everywhere

THE MOORISH PIRATES OF THE RIFF.
From Gibraltar we learn that the Moorish soldiers
who had been sent overland from Tangier to the Riff
country by the Governor, for the purpose of rescuing
the British subjects who were in the hands of the
pirates, had returned without effecting their object,
and it is more than probable that the poor men have
either been put to death or removed into the interior.
