ANECDO rAL INCID.EN US.

That many a true word is written as well as spoken
in jest received a complete verification this morning ;
Mr. Punch, in the last number of his humorous pub-
lication, recommends the establishment of a registry
for beaux. Now it struck us that in the eastern part
of the Crystal Palace there was a very shocking dis-
proportion between the ladies and the gentlemen. In-
stead of the ratio being, as Punch represents it, 5 to 1,
this morning it was at least twenty to one, and the
result was an unusual amount of confusion and ex-
citement. Parties of ladies got separated, and while
some found themselves hurried up to the gal-
leries, others were carried away to the extreme
north, or lost in the wilderness of space.
lying north and south of the transept. Then, again
while the procession was in motion, there were ladies
who would insist upon standing on the benches or
trespassing beyond the line of demarcation chalked
out by the police, and angry contravercies arose about
bonnets being in th© way, or the owners flatly refusing
to sit down. Now had each lady been accompanied by a
beau, or, say, had there been a beau to every two, much
of this confusion and annoyance would have been
avoided, for the police were not permitted to escort
ladies to their pieces, and as but few messengers were
in attendance, every one had to shift for him or herself.
It was really quite distressing to see how recklessly
ladies, both young and old, scrambled over the
benches, regardless of disturbing the beauty of their
costume, upon which they had evidently bestowed
much time and taste; but perhaps they felt amply
rewarded for all this trouble and inconvenience
in securing a capital position for seeing the
gorgeous pageant as it moved Majestically along, and
since their struggles occasionally afforded some
amusement to the ruder sex we ought to be the last
persons in the world to find fault with them. Still
a lady, when alone and unprotected by a beau, feels
herself privileged to take more latitude than is abso-
lutely necessary for her own individual comfort, and
it is, therefore, to be hoped that Mr. Punch's hint
will not be lost sight of (luring the period of the
Exhibition. We suspect the complaint about the
alleged loss referred to elsewhere is not without reason,
since each stall was left to take care of itself, and the
valuable property which they contain appeared to be
quite unguarded. The music could not be heard far
beyond the transept, and therefore the prayer
and ceremonies performed in the centre must
Lave been mere pantomine to those who were for-
tunate or unfortunate enough to obtain seats at
either end of the erection, though the higher notes
of the organs could be just distinguished as the
sound floated through the air. The music, however,
seemed to flow from a multitude of bagpipes instead
of those of an organ, while the impression conveyed
to the mind by the cheering, as it travelled from the
western to the eastern extremity, was that of the
noise which follows the rolling of the tide on to the
sea beach. It gushed gradually upon the ear,
rising in force step by step until its thun-
dering climax was atta;ned, and then receding
by the same slow measure its echo was at last entirely
lost in the distance. The refreshment rooms are on
the north side of the eastern end, they of
course commanded a good deal of attention
this morning, and mint juleps, and bottled
stout was the order of the day, but drinking was not
permitted without eating, and in cur hearing a gen-
tleman was somewhat peremptorily told that " by
order of the Commissioners" he could not be allowed
to drink a glass of ale without eating a
biscuit. The gentleman declined to take his malt
upon such terms, but a second waiter came to the
rescue, and the difficulty was got over by the follow-
ing interpretation of the Commissioner's order :—IIc
must pay for the biscuit, but it would not be incum-
bent upon him to eat it, and with this compromise
the dispute ended, and we returned to the leading
avenue just in time to witness a chase for a dog who
had indiscreetly intruded himself without a ticket. The
hunters were a body cf the A-division, who ultimately
succeeded in capturing the intruder, whom they
ignominiously expelled ; but it was not without con-
siderable difficulty that the feat was accomplished, for
he was a knowing dog, and managed to run in and
out of all sorts of intricate places, and thus, like other
offenders before him, he eluded the vigilance of the
police. Catalogues were in abundance, and found
ready purchasers at a shilling each, but the vendors
were somewhat a little too independent, as they de-
clined to give change for even half-a-crown,
while as to giving change for a sovereign seemed
simply ridiculous in their estimation. But very
likely these are mere trifles incident upon a first
opening of so stupendous a work, and doubtless
when next we visit this glorious palace of glass
we shall look for them in vain.

OFFICIAL CATALOGUE OF THE El-

lIIBITION.

Associating their energies in the production of this
remarkable catalogue, the Messrs. W. Clowes and
Son, the printers, and the Messrs. Spicer, Brothers,
the wholesale stationers, have contrived to issue, on
May-day, the first instalment of this enormous com-
pilation. Among other things, it contains a very
lucid introduction, comprising a succinct narrative of
the rise and development of the entire enterprise.
Subsequently, we have a complete and authentic
Directory, including the names of every individual,
whether native or foreign, connected officially
with the undertaking—each particularized in his
respective department. Thereupon follow details re-
lating to the construction of the building, with a
chapter on the scientific revision and preparation of
the catalogue. A classification of the subjects into
which the thirty classes are divided, is prefixed to a
most interesting list of the articles exhibited by her
Majesty, his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and his
Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. Then comes
the pith and marrow of the portion now published,
namely, Classes One to Four. In the compilation of
this, the first division of the catalogue, the official
contractors have evinced not only enterprise and
activity, but an extraordinary amount of care andof
conscientious application. Nothing scarcely could
be more clear than the whole arrangement of the
contents, more easy of reference, more complete even
to minuteness, or more comprehensive in their en-
tirety. Those touching and majestic
inscribed
of Holy
Writ are with a solemn significance upon
the title page—" The earth is the Lord's, and all that
therein is ; the compass of the world, and they that
dwell therein." Several valuable and attractive illus-
trations accompany the letter-press, and tend to com-
plete this section of the catalogue. Altogether Part One
appears in the form of a handsome volume, and possesses
the merit of being an invaluable companion to a con-
siderable branch of the Great Exhibition.

CRAPS FROM CHESTER.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—The great handicap of 1851, the celebrated
cup of Chester, is now enrolled among the things that
were; yesterday the hopes and fears of thousands were
sst at rest, although in very different manners. Rumour,
this morning, announces the startling intelligence, that
one of the greatest list houses in London, situated in
tho parish of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields, has become,
like the handicap, a thing of the past; and that 5
balance of 5,0001. would consequently be missing from
the pockets of the public. Several other houses and persons
are reported to be in difficulties. The settling generally
is expected to be very so-so. Nancy won the Cup very
cleverly by a neck from the Black Doctor; Hesse Homburg
being third, Rhesus fourth (somewhere about the posi-
tion I expected he would run home in), Backbiter fifth,
89d
nay cockboat, Duc-an-Durras, sixth. Russborough,
h I prcdicted, could not wit;; it was an impossibility;
e was in difficulties soon after going round the first
time. The race was by no means the fastest on reeord,
having been two seconds slower than Peep-o'-day Boy's,
and three slower than last year; but still on the whole it
was a fast run race. Time, 4 min. 14 sec. One of my
selected couple will win the Dee Stakes to-day; Light-
foot will be beaten. After the great race yesterday,
Tha BM], on the strength of Hesse Homburg's running,
advanced to 20 to 1 for the Derby; and The Black
Doctor was supported at 33, 30, and
`,B to 1 for the same
race also.

The room was crowded until after midnight, but very
little business was transacted. Rhesus, The Italian, Rasa-
borongh, and Sauter la Coupe, were backed for the most
money.

WEDNESDAY'S RACES.
Shortly after the termination of the races yesterday
the wather again changed to hail and rain, which con-
tinued almost unceasingly until eight o'clock this morn-
ing; the course, which had previously been in good
order, thus became a trifle heavy, and there can be no
doubt that the proipect or a wet day deterred hundreds
living in distant parts of this and the adjoining counties,
from taking their annual trip to the Roodee. Fortu-
in.aaitnelkye, p
tal(t4h,onagnidi theth e
daysky was occasionally overcast, the
so far has passed with brilliant
success.

If the Cup as a betting race was less interesting than
usual, it does not appear to have lost much of its pop
larity with the " million," for the excursion and ordi-
nary trains disembarked such immense freights from the
manufacturing districts, in addition to a considerable
numb, r from London, that, had not the arrangements at
the station been well matured and efficiently carried out,
the greatest possible confusion must have ensued. We
will not say that the assemblage now collected on the
course is or is not larger than we have seen on some
Cup days, but it is " prodigious,." The Stand is crowded
to suffocation, and there is a fair sprickling of fashion.
That it is not so good as usual is fairly attributed to the
superior attraction of the Great Exhibition in Hyde-park.
The great race was run about 4 o'clock. On this oc-
casion Mr. Hibbard, prevailed upon the authorities to
abandon the plan of drawing for places and ranks, and
to allow him to adopt the usual mode of starting; and
notwithstanding there were no less than 28 runners he
got them off with little trouble, and with only two slight
failures. Time only permits us to append a brief return:

the centre of a cylinder armed with iron beaters, re-
volving 1,100 times per minute. This cylinder is
'elle-631d in another, with peculiar perforations, through
( which all the dust and dirt in the corn are driven.
Every smut-ball and all the clods of dirt are broken
up by the iron beaters, and at the same time they
loour the fibrous end of the corn clean and bright.—
A machine for reeing corn and seeds. The novelty
in this machine is the eombined motion given to a
sieve, whereby the corn is made to turn over and re-
volve round. By the centrifugal power the good corn
is carried to the outside; the sprouted and moulded
corn and rubbish is, on the contrary, worked to the
centre of the sieve, when it is taken up by an ex-
lautting apparatus, the small seeds and dust going
thrpue.,,l2 the wire bottom of the sieve.
Reid, Too‘rntou-plsce, Aberd..en. A new machine for
, washing, wringing, and mangling. It consists of an
, adaptation of Mr. Raid's lever msngle, combined with
a washing-4ot) of a novel construction, into which the
clothes and water are thrown, shut in, and thoroughly
wf3shed by mac inert'; after which, by an equally
• simple process, they are well wrung. This is managed
by planing the wet clothes in a stout netted bag, and
, the bag, not the article that i 3 in it, is twisted so that
the water is thrown oil, not by being screwed out so

inauch as by simple pressure

Ross, of Bladesbury, the Hon. Mrs. A stone cross, de-
signed and executed by the exhibitor. The cross is
formed of Caen stone, and elaborately carved with sub-
jects in basso-relievo. taken from the Old and New
Testaments. On the face' which is turned towards the
west, are the Old Testament subjects; on the upper pa-
nel " The Translation of Elijah;" in the centre " The
Raising of the Brazen Serpent by Moses ;" and on either
side " The First Sacrifice by Abel, and Noah entering
into the Ark." On the shaft of the cross on the western
side are four panels, containing heads of the four pro-
phets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel, with
scrolls containing sentences taken from their prophecies.
On the face turned towards the east are subjects taken
from the New Testament—" The Resurrection of Our
Lord, His Crucifixion, the Good Shepherd, and the
Return of the Prodigal Son." On the shaft are four
panels containing heads of St. Peter, St. John, St.
James, and St. Paul, with scrolls and mottoes. The
upper part of the cross is surrounded by a circle, hav-
ing carved thereon an arabesque of grapes, vine leaves,
and ears of corn. On the sides is carved a rope-work,
interlaced in the form of Runic knots. The height,
including the base, is 16 feet; the length of the arms
of the cross is 6 feet 2 inches.

Steevens, Taunton. A cabinet made of fine walnut wood
grown in the neighbourhood of Taunton, elaborately
caved, representing, youth, manhood, maturity, and
old age; also the seasons of the year, in carving and
needle-work, the passions, Sem, crowned with a figure
of Peace extending over the globe. The figure of a
youth, at 20 years of age, whose countenance bespeaks
the innocency and candour of his heart, wears in his
' hair the emblems of the season—the violet, primrose,
cowslip, &e.—holding in his right hand a portion
ofa
figures,festoo of flowers which connects the whole
four
and extending his lett hand to the
figuree of. manhood, at the age of 40 years, and
wearing in his hair the emblems of summer; carna-
tions, strawberries, gooseberries, &c., surround his
brow; his right hand is receiving the festoon of flowers
from youth, and with his left he is supporting the
frame of cabinet, the festoon of flowers continuing
and extending to the figure of Maturity—a figure of
sixty years of age—whose right hand supports the
frame of cabinet, and his left hand extends to Old Age.
Then follows the figure of Old Age—the winter of life
at eighty-six years—who is receiving from the hand
of Autumn the festoon of fruit and flowers, and with
his right hand supports the remaining part of the fes-
toon. Around his brow are the emblems of winter,
the holly, mistletoe, and ivy, with the acorn shell and
leafless bough. Each of these figures are complete,
with a lion's foot at the bottom, and above the feet
is a connecting-frame to complete the stand ; be-
tween the figures of Spring and Summer are flowers
and fruits emblematical of the season, in fine relief, the
same between Sammbr and Autumn. From Autumn
to Winter is an emblem of the season—the chrysan-
themum, holly bough, and ivy, with autumn fruit in-
termixed in an appropriate manner. The garland of
flowers and fruit, commencing with Spring and finish-
ing with Winter, contains almost every flower that
blooms in their respective seasons, from the violet,
snowdrop, and primrose, to the latest—the chrysan-
themum, holly, and misletoe. Above the figures, and
resting on their heads, is a stand or frame to receive
the top part containing the drawers and doors; and is
constructed in a peculiar manner on the bevel, that
the eye may easily rest on the beautiful lines from
Thompson's Seasons. Over the head of youth, in this
frame, is a basket of strawberries, cherries, raspber-
ries, and early fruit, surrounded with leaf work, en-
closing a panel of needlework, covered with bent
plate glass, and the motto, " Chief lovely Spring! in
thLerieens,dapthpylessoft scsnesl the smiling God is seen."
