PUNCH'S PLAYHOUSE.

Mr. Copeland, inexhaustible in the production of pleasing
and popular novelties, brought out a little farce last night
with his wonted success, entitled My We's Future hus-
band. Messrs. A. Mayhew and Edwards are the joint au-
thors of this lively whimsicality, which affords a full mea-
sure of fun, conveyed in smart dialogue. Mr. Rogers was
as irresistibly comic as ever, maintaining his rank as a first-
rate farceur; and the other performers acquitted themselves
very creditably. The little " Strand" is now an established
favourite with the play-going public, and very deservedly so,
as the management is equally painstaking and energetic.

EXETER HALL.—A very interesting exhibition took
place yesterday afternoon in the lower hall of this building,
being a distribution of prizes, to the value of 105/, given
by the proprietors of a weekly publication of high standing,.
called the Home Circle, a work which has been eulogised by
Baron Alderson and Mr. Justice Talfourd. These prizes
were offered by the proprietors of the periodical, for contri-
butions in various departments set apart in the journal for
amusement and instruction, with the view of bringing out
the intellect of the various branches of the community
unaccustomed to exercises of this kind; and it seems
that the idea, novel, and certainly worthy of com-
mendation, for the advantages it must necessarily
confer, was very largely and very worthily responded to.
The editor, Mr. Pierce Egan, in a short and neat speech, pre-
faced the distribution, drawing the distinction between the
work he conducted as being beneficial to the domestic circle,
and those of a pernicious class ; after alluding to the renewed
efforts to make the journal all that it promised to be,
to

METROPOLITAN WATER SUPPLY COMMITTEE...-.
The proceedings yesterday before this committee, which is
beginning for the first time during a month's incubation to
show symptoms of exhaustion and ennui, related to the de-
tail of water supply as carried out at Edinburgh and Dundee,
the evidence of Messrs. Ramsay and Leslie going to show
that the waterworks at those places, as originally carried out
under municipal and rate-paying administration, had proved
failures, but that on their reverting to private enterprise, on
which principle they now were conducted, they worked effec-
tively and satisfactorily.
On Sabbath evening last, a female, named Mar-
garet Walker, died in the village of Pentland, having reached
the extreme age of 102 years and nine months.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Stit,—When I dotted down my remarks on the Bentinck
Memorial Stakes, yesterday, I completely overlooked the
fact that
throws me Brother to Elthiron was scratched on Saturday ; hi
being so back upon my seconds in command for
that event—BAY ROSALIND and ED RlND—whom I now advance to the first and second, instead of the second and
third, positions. I was also wrong in my list of the probable
starters for the Cup, having included Voltigeur's name among
them, principally on the strength of the cash invested on hint
yesterday morning; he, however, after having been supported
for 200 or 300 at " the Corner" was scratched at rive
o'clock for this stake and the Ebor Handicap likewise. The
field for the Cup, it is expected, will consist ofCariboo, Land.
grave or Hesse Homburg, probably the former, Russborougb,
Cossack, Marquis, Nancy, Montes, Young Altisidora, and
War Horse. Cariboo was backed for a good stake
yesterday afternoon, and advanced to Ili to 3, taken ; I fancy he will obtain the first place in the race,
with one of the three years old second; Cossack or
Russborough third. Having in the three previous " Glances
at Gol Jen Goodwood" commented on the first three days'
racing, I shall now take a fourth and last glance for the
present at the last day's " bill of fare." The Nassau Stakes
of 50 sous. each, all the money, making it a clear 800 sovs_
for the winner and fifty for the second, over the mile course,
will this year attract about four of the nineteen fillies en-
tered, whose names, I fancy, will be Aphrodite, penalized
6lbs for winning the One Thousand Guinea Stakes, Anspach,
Barcelona, and Hurry Scurry. H the flying daughter of
Bay Middleton and Venus puts in an appearance, nctwith
standing the penalty, she will just manage to beat Anspach;
should Sir Joseph Hawley decide upon keeping her at home,
the Sussex filly will win ; Barcelona will obtain the next
position, and the hot-tempered Hurry Scurrey will either
bolt or run home last. One of the Goodwood nags
will walk over for the 100 Sovs. Stakes. Should
Iris run for the Richmond Stakes, at Bst 51b, includ-
ing Gibs penalty fur winning the Oaks,
she can-
not very well help winning ; should she, however,
be reserved tor her future engagements, Mr. Gratwick will
in all probability, withdraw his Hesse Homburg, Bst 41b, and
win with The Squaw, 7st 13ib Juggernaut, Bst 41b, and
Runlvniede, Bst 41b,
very dubiou might go to the post, but their so doing is
8- At the ese ,t time it is perfectly impossible,
to give anything like ac orrect list of starters for the Chester..
field Cup, but with regard to the winner that is a very dif-
ferent affair ; I think I can discover him or her through rny
prophetic lorgnette, in the shape of Strongbow, 5 yrs, Bst 21b;
Tin 7 or Officious, 4 yrs, 7st 91b. I
