THE CAMP AT WIMBLEDON.

This morning at gun fire the principal competition
of the meeting commenced, and before night the 200
yards range of the first stags of the Queen's prize
will be finished. There are no prizes attached to
this range, nor from the results can any idea be got
of likely winners, as it often happens that a good
shoulder shot comes to grief at the longer ranges. The
number of competitors is over 1,800 and within a few they
will all turn up to-day. The Martin's challenge cup which
is competed for by marksmen of this year or last, is going
on at the 600 yards H. I. K. targets.
The Lords and Commons' match is fixed for to-morrow
at three.

THAMES.

THROWING R0813161i INTO THE THA➢SEB.—William Tur-
ner, aged 27, and John Turner, 20, belonging to the barge
Henry and Francis, were brought before Mr. Benson,
charged with throwing rubbish overboard into the Thames
off Cherry-garden-stairs, Rotherhithe.

Inspector Firmir, of the Thames Police, said the Henry
and Francis belonged to Mr. William Turner, a respect-
able lighterman and barge dealer, the father of the pri-
soners, and he saw them navigate the barge from Cherry-
garden, on the Surrey shore, to Wapping, on the Middle-
sex shore, where they commenced throwing rubbish, in
the shape of old matting, into the river. There was about
a ton and a half of rubbish in the barge.
William Turner said, in his defence, that he never threw
anything overboard. He was never in the hole of
the barge.

John Turner said a few old mats brought out of a dock
[o accommodate a captain of a ship only were thrown into
the river.

Mr. Turner, Ben., sail ho forbade rubbish of any de
scription being thrown from his lighters.

Inspector Firmir said both prisoners were throwing old
natting into the river, but William Turner stoutly denied
,hie, as far as he was concerned.

Mr. Benson said the high character of the elder Mr.
Turner, would induce him to mitigate the fine. He in-
flicted a penalty of ss. on each defendant, and said ho
believed the police.
The money was paid.

THE EDMUNDS SCANDAL—The sittings of the
arbitrators has been postponed until Thursday, the 21st
of October, when the Court will sit de die in diem.

ROYAL VISIT TO LYNN.—The Lynn new dock
was opened to-day by the Prince and Princess of Wales.
The town presents an animated appearance. _ _

Sacramento papers give long accounts of the
funeral of John C. Heenan, the "Benicia Boy," and long
accounts are given by other papers of a prize fight between
Allen and M'Coole, in which the former announced him-
self as an Englishmen, had no money, and therefore could
not accept the bet of $2,000 31 'Cool° desired to force on
him, and asked for fair play. He then set to work, and
gave the Irish giant an awful thrashing, butit ended with
him as with Heenan in England; the mob, who had
backed the wrong man, and were likely to lose their money,
burst into the ring and stopped the fight, just in time to
save their champion. Although it was clear that Allen
was the winner, and was recognized as such, yet the re-
feree decided the fight in favour of 31`Coole, alleging a fGul
on Allen's part in attempting to gouge M'Coole —a proceed-
ing highly improbable, considering that he was already
the victor. In fact, Allen received, at St. Louis, about the
same amount of fair play that Heenan did in his celebrated
fight with Sayers.
