BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.
The following testimonial is another proof of the great effi-
cacy of this medicine :
' "157, Now Bond-street, London, October 12, 1830.
" Sir,—ln acquainting you with the great benefit which I have ex-
perienced by taking BLAIR'S GOUT and RIIEUMATIC PILLS,
I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public
who may be similarly affected.
" About twenty years since I was first attacked by rheumatic gout
in my hands and feet. I had previously been subjected to every va-
riety of climate, having served in Canada in the 19th Dragoons, and
in Spain, under Sir John Moore, in the 18th hussars. I always pro•
cured the best medical aid, without obtaining any essential relief,
and my sufferings can be appreciated only by those who know some-
thing of this disease.
" It was during one of those paroxysms', between twelve and thir-
teen years ago, that I was recommended to try BLAIR'S PILLS. I
lost no time in procuring a box, and before I had taken that quantity
the pain had entirely ceased, and in a few days I was in perfect
health.
"From that moment, whenever I feel any symptoms of the dis-
ease approaching, I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to
me is so valuable, that were it not that the days of magic have
ceased, I should certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause.
Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suf-
fered, but on the contrary I believe the tendency of BLAIR'S PILLS
is towards its improvement.
" I have recommended the Pills to many friends, and the result
has always been of the most gratifying character.
" I am, Sir, yours respectfully,
" GARRET FOSTER GILL.

" To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand."
For every description of Gout and Rheumatism, Sciatica, Tic-dolo-
reux, Sec., &c., BLAIit'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS are a
sovereign remedy, contain neither mercury, opium, or any other
dangerous drug, require no care whatever in their use, and for ra-
pidity of cure and complete safety have not their equal in the world.
Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London ; and all respectable
Medicine Vendors. Price 2s. 9d. per box.

" These who complain most loudly arc those only who know not
how to use the common instruments. . . . . The prac-
tice of surgeons has been marked with all kinds of violence, and in-
difference about the simple cure of diseases, and a passion for
operations, and ail the excesses and horror of urgery."—John Bell.

THE MESSRS. COCKS and CO.'S PATENT
PINNOFORTES, 22 Guineas and upwards.
" In looking over the extensive establishment of Messrs. Cocks
and Co., music publishers, New Burlington-street, and in our ad-
miration of the elegant assortment of Piccolos, Cottages, and other
instruments, we are free to confess, that even in choosing a piano-
forte, there is something in a name. Want of judgment, or false
notions of economy, tempt many to seek for bargains in the auction-
room, or the advertised cheap repository ; but the true votaries
of Terpsichore look to the name for a confirmation of
their choice, and a guarantee for its being a correct one.
The Cottages, Semi-Cottages, and Piccolos of Messrs. Cocks
and Co. meet at once the requirements of connoisseurs and
economists ; they are of beautiful exterior, of well-seasoned wood,
embracing the highest degree of excellence of material and manu-
facture, and of much surpassing beauty in their harmonic powers,
being powerful in volume, brilliant in expression, and light and
elastic to the touch. The Semi-Cottage or Piccolo, with its im-
proved grand desk, in particular arrested our attention, from its
truly unique and elegant appearance, and the powerful volume it
pours forth when touched by the master hand. But where there is
uniform excellence it is needless to particularise—suffice it to say,
we do not think these pianofortes can be surpassed in quality
or reasonable low prices."— (Vide the " London Mercantile Journal,"

mouth, though the day was cloudy and rainy.
The Southampton, Monarch, and Waterloo, Indiamen,
are at Spithead; but the first-named vessel will, pro-
bably, get away to-night.
DOCKYARDS.—Mr. Sylvanus Gibbs, second class clerk
of the Devonport Dockyard, has been superannuated on
a pension of 1501. per annum.
The Royal Devonport Dockyard Battalion were exer-
cised for the last time during the present season, in the
brickfield, on Saturday last. The soldier-like appearance
of the men, and the manner in which they went through
the several evolutions, excited very general commenda-
tions from a number of military men among the multi-
tude assembled on the Found.
Mr. Edward Cheesewan, foreman of Chatham Dock-
yard, has been awarded the annual gratuity of 501. by
the Admiralty.

Since its return from Tunis the squadron has been
cruising off the island, the ships being detached two by
two to enter the harbour, and complete water prior to a
more extended cruise, for which the Admiral left yester-
day morning. The probable destination of the squadron
is guessed at by many (Gulf of Spezia is mentioned),
but nothing is positively known. The Admiral's object
in getting away from Malta is more to preserve the
health of the men during the hot weather than any po-
litical motive.

At Tunis the Admiral was well received by his High-
ness the Bey, who saluted him on landing with 17 guns,
and presented the squadron with bread, sheep, vegeta-
bles, truittrof ali kinds, vermicelli, macaroni, coffee, sugar,
oil,, and candles (Trade of bees' wax), fowls, ducks, and
geese. 50 bullocks, as well as wines and spirits, were
also tendered, but these latter were declined. _

brought it into harbour. The Meander sails this even-
ing, or at daybreak to-morrow morning, for Chatham, to
be paid off. She sailed from Spithead early in January,
1848, for China; she took out from England Raja Brooke
and suite and a complete staff of eofficials for the new
settlement of Labuan. She sailed- from China on the
28th of --May, 1849; thence to Siugsporee'and
where she stayed 10 days; thence for New Ireland
(Guinea); and thence to Sydney, New South Wales,
where she stayed six weeks in company with the Rattle-
snake surveying ship. The Meander eailed from Syd-
ney on the Ist of May, 1850, and proceeded to Tahiti,
whore she remained eight days. All was tranquil there
between Qasen Pomare and the French Protectorate.
A French frigate and steamer lay there, and the French
gave a grand ball on board the former, which the officers
of the Meander attended. Tho Meander left Tahiti in
the beginning of August for Valparaiso, where she
arrived on the 2.1 of September, and remained under the
command of Rear-Admiral Hornby until the 25th, when
she sailed for Coquimbo (Chili), and thence to Callao.
where she remained three or four days, and then made
for Mazatlan to collect freight, which she was engaged
in a couple of months, leaving her boats there while
she went to Guaymas, where she remained a month, at
the expiration of which time she returned, picked up
her hes, and left fir St. Bias, whence she sailed
on tlilrlst of March last for Valparaiso, and remained
there ten days, sailing on the 33 of May for Rio, through
the Straits of Magellan, in which she passed the Amphi-
trite, 26, Captain Frederick, then four days from Val-
paraiso, all well. Sho arrived at Rio on the Bth of June,
and sailed on the 12th for England. While at Rio she
saw a bargee being towed oat of harbour by a small
steamer, which being suspected, the Cormorant steam-
sloop gave chase to her, fired at her, knocked away her
funnel, and afterwards made a prize of her. The barque
got away, but the Plumper fell in with her and fired into
her. Lieut. Moore (acting), of the Gorgon, Mr. 0. W.
Brierly, the marine painter, and Mr. Ormsby, from
Valparaiso, have come home in this ship, which left at
Rio—the Tweed, 26; Plumper, 11; Cormorant, 6;
Rifleman, 6; and Sharpshooter, 6, all well. The Mean-
der has lost three of her officers since she has been
abroad—the Hon. G. Egerton, who was accidentally
shot; her surgeon, Dr. Clarke; and Mr. Searle. She
has also lost a number of her crew from fever, which was
caught at Labuan. She spoke the Edmonstone barque
in lat. 18 21, long. 39, on the 3d inst., from Corfu to
Jamaica, with troops; and on the 21st, in lat. 48 long.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
NORFOLK ClRCUlT.—Norwich, July 28.

CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice CRESWELL:

Henry Groom, aged 42, was arraigned on an indict-
ment charging him with the wilful murder of John
Ayton on the 4th of the present month, at Holkhaw,
by shooting him through the head with a bullet and shot
discharged from a pistol.
The prisoner is ye labonrer on Vie llolkham estate,
tied the deceased was the superintendent of the 'brick-
fields, in virtue of which office it was his constant prac-
tice to pay the labourers their wages fortnightly on Fri-
days. For this purpose he used to obtain the necessary
funds at Lord Leicester's office, and being advanced in
years, he had latterly resorted to a donkey and cart as a
means of conveyance from the office in the park, his road
lying through the west lodge and past a plantation and
an old sand-pit. On the day named in the indictment,
Mr. Ayton obtained, at his usual hour of twelve, or there-
abouts, the sum of 251. ss. 6d., which was paid to him in
sovereigns, and half-sovereigns, and a 5/.noteof Gurney's
bank, which, having been cut iu two, had been pasted
together again at the back, and presented some endorse-
ment in red ink. No further notice was taken of this note
at the time of payment by the clerk. Between twelve and
one Ayton was seen to pass through the park in his don-
key-cart towards the west lodge, and after that hour he
was not seen alive by anyone, unless it was by the prisoner,
who was seen loitering about the entrance to the sand-
pit plantation on that day by two people, between twelve
and a quarter-past one. At half-past one a shot was
heard by some workmen hoeing mangold wurzel in a
field near the plantation. About two o'clock a young
lad wandering about the neighbourhood chanced to
enter the plantation, where he saw a man lying on his
side, as he thought, asleep, with his hat on the top of
his head. The boy took no notice of him ; but, pass-
ing through the plantation, entered the marigold wurzel
field, and told the men there what he had seen. They
did not pay any attention to the circumstance. At half-
past one a man named Yarham saw Ayton's donkey and
cart straying along the road between the entrance to the
said pit plantation and the brickfield, and tied them up
at a gate near the pit. Tho same man finding the don-
key and cart at the same place, and having heard fro
the boy that ho had seen a man asleep in the pitm
, he
leaned over the brink, and at the bottom he found the
owner of the donkey and cart lying dead, :with " the
contents worked out" by a large wound at the back of
his head, over which was placed hie hat. The alarm was
immediately given, and the pockets of the deceased man
having evidently been rifled, suspicion fell on the prisoner,
who had been seen going home to his father-in-law's
house, at Wells, by a circuitous route ; he was on that
evening taken into custody, when a Si. note of Gurney's
bank, corresponding in appearance with that so recently
given to Ayton, was found in his pocket, and a key. The
latter being applied to a drawer in the room occupied
by the prisoner, opened it, and within the drawer were
found a quantity of sovereigns, half-sovereigns, and sil-
ver, which together with the 5/. note, made up the suns
of 26/. 2s. 61 The coin so found in the drawer was
wrapped in a piece of paper, which, on being examined,
proved to be a portion of an account in Ayton 's hand.
writing, and fitted exactly with another piece of paper
discovered in the pocket of the murdered man, in which
was the rest of the same account. It further appeared
that a hors©-pistol, which tho father-in-law of the pri-
soner had placed on a shelf after using it on the morning
of the 4th to scare birds, was missed at niuo o'clock,
after the prisoner had been seen to quit the house with
a canvas bag under his arm, and soon after the pri-
soner's return home the same pistol was seen again in
its proper place. The prisoner, who was not defended
by counsel, did not attempt to deny that ho was in the
neighbourhood of the plantation, as deposed by the
witnesses for the prosecution, but accounted for the pos-
session of the money by saying that he had found it in
the road, and insisted that no one had ever seen him kill

the man.
At the close of the case for the prosecution,
Mr. Justice CRESSWELL submitted the whole facts to
the jury, who, without any hesitation, returned a verdict
of Guilty.
His LORDSHIP then proceeded to pass the a*ful sen-
tence of death in the usual form.
Tho prisoner, who used a trumpet during the whole
of the trial, as he was quite deaf, was theu withdrawn
from the dock.

POLICE
tV INTELLIGENCE.
ORS 1-11 P-S TREE T.
A middle-aged man, named John Rogers, described as
an omnibus-driver, was placed at the bar before Mr.
Arnold, charged with having caused the death of a
woman named Elizabeth Leafe, aged thirty-six years,
with whom he had cohabited.
Mrs. Jane Holman, the wife of a hootmaker in Luke-
street, Finsbury, said—The prisoner had occupied the
first-floor room in my house with the deceased, who
lived with him as his wife, since the Saturday before Eas-
ter last. About a quarter before 12 on Saturday night I
was disturbed by an angry altercation between them,
which was shortly succeeded by the sounds of a blow and
heavy fall, which completely shook the place. I instantly
hastened up stairs to their apartment, on entering which
I fcund the deceased lying on the floor, bleeding pro-
fusely from the nose and mouth. The only words she
uttered wore, " Oh, pray ! oh, pray !" On questioning
the prisoner, who was very much intoxicated, as to
what he had dere to the woman, he replied, in an agi-
tated manner, "I have struck her and knocked her
down. For God'e sake do all you can for her."
I immediately raised her head, and requested the
prisoner to support it for fear she should be suffocated,
which he readily did. Having admitted another
lodger, named Cooper, and his wife, I left the deceased
under their care, and at the urgent desire of the pri-
soner hurried off to procure the attendance of Mr.
i
Leonard, a surgeon n the neighbourhood. On return-
ing with the latter, the deceased was still lying upon the
floor in strong convulsions. After examining her condi-

tion and giving directions for her treatment, Mr. Leonard
left the house, and the prisoner shortly afterwards has-
tened out for another surgeon, but before his return with
one the deceased had expired.
In cross-examination by Mr. Vann, on behalf of
the accused, the witness said, that when she first en-
tered the room, the prisoner declared that the deceased
had menaced him with a knife, and that he knocked
her down under the apprehension that she was about to
stab him.
Ellen Cooper, a married woman lodging in the second
floor, deposed, that on reaching home shortly after
twelve o'clock on Saturday night, she heard a low moan-
ing in the prisoner's room, followed by an exclamation
from the deceased of " Oh, my brain! bring some water
to bathe my temples, or I shall go mad!" On entering
the apartment with her husband, she found the deceased
lying upon the floor, and the prisoner, who exhibited ex-
treme anxiety and trepidation, was stooping over her
bathing her head and temples. On observing witness,
he implored her assistance, and begged Mrs. Holman to
proceed for a surgeon, who attended the deceased soon
afterwards, but was unable to afford her any relief,
and immediately after he had left, she was seized with a
strong hysterical fit, which terminated fatally in a few
minutes.

Mr. Thomas Leonard, a surgeon in Tabernacle-square,
stated that on reaching the house and examining the de-
ceased, who was perfectly insensible, he found, as far as
he could judge, that she was labouring under an attack
of apoplexy. He observed a livid mark, apparently
caused by a violent blow on her right cheek. He con-
sidered that such a blow was calculated to produce con-
cussion of the brain, accompanied by the other symp-
toms he had described. The woman was evidently in a
dying state; and on requesting the prisoner to explain
how the transaction arose, he replied that she had threat-
ened him with a knife, and that he therefore knocked
her down. Witness then directed him to send to his
surgery for some medicine, but added, that he expected
to be paid for it on delivery; upon which the prisoner
turned round upon him in such a threatening manner
as led him to suppose that he intended some personal
violence, and he hastily left the place.
Police-constable Sylvester, G 226, stated that having
received information about one o'clock that morning
that a woman had been murdered by her husband, he
proceeded to the house and was conducted to an upper
room, where he found the deceased lying quite dead.
The prisoner entered soon after, and on taking him into
custody he entreated his permission " to go and kiss her
poor dead body" before he was conveyed to the station-
house. He then approached the bed on which the de-
ceased was lying, and after kissing her face three or
four times, exclaimed " My dear girl, what shall I do
now; my right hand is gone from me." Witness then
observed the knife produced lying upon the floor, and
on picking it up the prisoner remarked, " That is the
knife my poor dear girl used to defend herself."
The prisoner, who appeared at that time to be perfectly
sober, was then conveyed to the station-house.
The prisoner, who was deeply affected and sobbed
convulsively throughout the investigation, declined
offering any observations, and was ordered to be re-
manded for a week to await the result of the post mortem
examination.

SOUTHWARK.
Sarah Turner Winter, a middle-aged respectable-
looking woman, was brought before Mr. Sucker, charged
with having in her possession a box containing 200

sovereir,ns,—a valuable'gold watch and chain, two gold
rings, fifteen silk handkerchiefs, and a large quantity of
black spun silk, supposed to have been stolen from one
of the railway companies near the metropolis.
Rebecca Sergeant said she was tho wife of one of the
officials connected with the Eastern Counties Railway at
Stratford. Her husband kept a house at West Ham, and
the prisoner's brother, who was employed on tho rail-

way, lodged with them. A few days ago the prisoner

came to lodge with him, and on Sunday morning, while
he was absent on duty, the prisoner showed her a hand-
some gold watch ant chain, and entered her brother's

room.

When she came out she told witness that sho

was compelled to leave suddenly, as something had hap-
pened which made her uneasy; that she had left the
watch and other property for her brother, and that as
soon as be came home she hoped witness would send him

after her. She left the houso a little after eleven o'clock
in the morning, but her brother did not return home
till eleven at night. As soon as he entered the house
she informed him that his sister had suddenly quitted
the house, but she had left
.a gold watch and other pro-
perty for him. Her brother seemed astounded, and ex-
claimed, " My sister can have no gold watch to give me,
and whatever property she has left for me vou must come
and look at it with me, as I will have nothing to do with

her or her property." Shortly afterwards they entered
his room, and found the gold watch, 200 ~,sovereigns,
and other property, when a police-constable was called
in to take charge of them.
Prisoner—l did not intend to give the watch to my
brother. I said my brother was to keep it in use until
my husband came home. I dare not give it away.
Thomas Haddington, police•constable 189 K, said,
about one o'clock that morning he was called int() the
last witness's house at West Ham. He went up stairs
and found a box, containing two hundred sovereigns,
a gold watch an guard chain, two gold rings, fifteen
silk handkerchiefs, and about a quarter of a hundred
weight of black spun silk. They were all taken out
of a box belonging to a young man named Lawrence,
the prisoner's brother.
Joseph Benton, police-constable 381 K, said he found
the prisoner that afternoon at No. 80, York-street,
Kingsland-road. She had two children with her, and
when he told her that she was suspected of stealing the
above property, which she had left at her brother's lodg-
ings, she acknowledged taking them there, but declined
to answer how she became possessed of them.
rrisoner—l said I took them to my brother's for
safety.
Benton—She said that her husband was in trouble,
and being afraid that their house would be searched,
she took them there to bo out of the way.
• Mr. SECKER—What is her husband ? Mrs. Ser-
geant—He used to be a porter on the South-Western
Railway, but ho was discharged some time ago.
Sergeant John William Manning, of the Stratford
police, informed the magistrate that he had been to the
South-Western Railway Company, and had ascertained
that the prisoner's husband was discharged on account
of an immense quantity of silk being lost on the line,
and suspicion having attached to him. He bad every
reason to believe that in a few days some further clue
would be obtained, which would show that the property
found was the produce of the plunder' and that he
should be authorised to apprehend the husband.
Mr. SEeKER said that, according to Mrs. Sergeant's
evidence, the case was one for investigation at the Lam-
beth Police-court ; therefore he should remand the pri-
soner to gaol, and order her to be taken before the ma-
gistrates there to-morrow (this) morning.
_ WESTMINSTER.
_

Sir James Sutherland M'Kenzie, whose name has of
late been repeatedly before the public, and who was com-
mitted from this court on the 12th of June, in default of
finding sureties for his good behaviour, and has ever
since been in custody, was brought up from the House of
Detention, Clerkenwell, by direction of the magistrate.
Upon being brought into court,
Mr. BURRELL said—Sir James DlCenzio, I have con-
sented, upon the application of your solicitor, to discharge
you upon your entering into your own recognizances of
2001. to keep the peace. At the same time I much regret
that a man in your station of life, who ought to be able
to command bail, is unable to procure it; and I hope
that, on your own account, you will be more on your
guard in future. lam afraid you indulge in drinking to
excess.

Sir James—As it appears in the papers; but I can
appeal to any of the members of the St. James's, or
other clubs, to prove that I never display any pugnacity
while in their company. I am never annoyed there.
Mr. BURRELL—They know your infirmity.
Sir James—l beg your pardon; I can always take care
of myself there, but it's the annoyance outside that ex-
cites nie, not inside the clubs.
Mr. BURRELL—I hope you will be more cautious.
Sir James—Although I may take a great deal in the
clubs, I em never irritated or excited there.
Mr. BURRELL—No, but you may drink a consider-
able quantity there, and then go out and become excited
by any annoyance. You know that boys, and the vul-
gar order of people, seeing a man under the influence
of liquor, are too apt to follow and annoy him. People
will insult a drunken man. I hope, for your own sake,
you will for the future be on your guard, or you will get
into constant scrapes; and it is my duty to tell you that
if, after what has occurred, you are again brought
before me, or any other magistrate, you will in all pro-
bability be treated with the utmost possible severity of
the law.
Sir James—You will not see me here again.
Mr. BURRELL—I can have no wish, in offering these
remarks, but that you should conduct yourself as a man
of rank and as a gentleman.
The second clerk then proceeded to bind over Sir
James, in his own recognizances of 2001., to keep the
peace and be of good behaviour for the next twelve
months.

ROYAL NAVAL ScuooL.—A special meeting of the
governors of this institution was held yesterday, on the pre-
mises, New-cross, Deptford, for the purpose of making
various alterations in the rules and by-laws of the corpo-
ration, having reference to the admission of pupils, which
had been approved of by the council, and wero rendered ne-
cessary by the recent Act of Parliament. Admiral Bowles,
C. 8., M.P., took the chair. The following: gentlemen
were also present: Admiral Sir Watkin Pell, Sir Charles
Ogle, Captains Hideout, M'Adams, Stewart, Whish, Clarke,
Gladstone, and Stopford, and Lieutenant Henderson. The
chairman observed, that the resolutions about to be sub-
mitted to the meeting were intended to authorise the ad-
mission into the school of a limited number of the sons of
persons not being officers in the Royal Navy or Marines. He
regretted that he should not be able to continue his atten-
dance during the consideration of the proposed amendments,
as urgent business required his immediate return to London.
The gallant Admiral accordingly withdrew, and the chair
was taken by Sir W. Pell. The secretary then proceeded to
read the by-laws, when several, which were incompatible
with the provisions of the Act of Parliament, were rescinded,
and those recommended by the council were, after some dis-
cussion, unanimously adopted in their stead. The meeting
then adjourned.
THE TEA TRADE, JULY 28.—The quantity of tea
delivered in London last week was 640,57111)., being rather

THE PROBABLE FIELDS, AND WINNERS OF
TO-MORROW'S RACES AT GOODWOOD.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—Although the value of the stakes run tor to-day,
at Goodwood, is by many hundreds greater than each of
the other days, amounting as they will do to somewhere
about six thousand pounds or upwards, yet to-morrow,
on account of the Goodwood Stakes standing then for i
decision, s generally considered the day of the meeting,
‘` the Stakes" being a race on which, for many years past,
immense sums have been betted; in this respect this
year will form no exception to the rule, large sums hav-
ing beeninvested on several of the competitors, to wit:—
The Grand Duke, Presto, Backbiter, Cariboo, Narcissus
and Harpsichord, and very fair sums on some seven or
eight others. To-morrow's " hill of fare" is heeded
with a Handicap Plate, value 50 sovs., which, with
The Stewards' Cup, the Cowdray Stakes, and a
couple of 10 sovs. Sweepstakes, I have not
at the time of writing, although these stakes closed last

think it most likely that will turn the scale of victory in
her favour. Nothing else will run, without Sir Rowland
Trenchard should be started for the off-chance. , The
mile and a quarter 300 sovs. stakes, for colts, would
I should say, to HERNANDEZ ; Bonnie Dundee or Hip'
polytus obtaining the dubious honour of being
second and last. Neither Croupier, Storm, or
Kakistos will run. The mile and a quarter
300 Sovs. Stakes. for fillies, will be;won by Mr. Grat-
wicke's ANSPACH, and, very possibly without a contest.
The field for the Goodwood Stakes will, by the time of
starting, be run up toetbout a score, probably the fol-
lowing :—Cariboo, 4 yrs, Bst 81b; Pitsford, 4 yrs, Bst 31b;
Backbiter, 6 yrs, 7st 91b; Windischgratz, 4 yrs, 7st 91b;

3 yrs, 4st 121 b; British Boy, 3 yrs, 4st 121 b; Ischia
(D); Harpsichord, 3 yrs, 4st 71b; and Miss Whip colt,
3 yrs, 4st 41b. My opinion with respect to the winner
remains unaltered, THE GRAND DUKE or NARCISSUS to

furnish to-morrow's hero, with Duc-an-Durras, Presto,
and Pitsford in close attendance. The next flight, I
fancy, will consist of Miss Whip colt, the Grand Duke's
schoolmaster—Vampyre, Windischgratz, Backbiter,
Runnymede, and Cariboo. The batting in town this
morning, considering the great number of the betting
fraternity that have departed for the scene of action in
Sussex is uncommonly brisk; latest prices as follows:
Gratwicke2 to lon Hernandez. Goodwood Stakes-
-4 to 1 agst Grand Duke 9 to 2 taken; 8 to 1 agst Nar-
cissus, 8 to 1 agst Backbiter, 10 to 1 agst Cariboo, 10 to

ford. Goodwood Cup-7 to 2 agst Nancy, 4to 1 agst
Clincher, 4 to 1 agst Cariboo, 5 to 1 agst Montes.
Claverhouso and the Cheshire Witch filly are in great
demand for the Ham Stakes, the prices, however, so
variable that I cannot quote any.
