THE DEAD ALIVE.—•A STRANGE STORY.—The
following curious incident has just come to light. About
24 years ago a young man named Turner was living at a
large academy at Amorsham, Buckinghamshire, filling the
position of teacher of languages. One evening ho was
seized with a fit—he being subject to them—and the next
morning his bedroom window was found open, and he
was missing from the room. About ten daysafter the body
of a young man was found lying face downwards in some
shallow water, and the body was at once supposed
to be that of the unfortunate young man,
and on a number of the scholars and relatives
viewing the body they all identified it as that of
their teacher and friend. The body in due course was
interred by the relatives, and the mother took possession
of a watch belonging to the deceased, and wore it till her
death. A few days ago some of the relatives of Turner
received a letter from Ballarat, Australia, and were not a
little surprised to find that their relative, whom they had
believed to be dead and buried, and whose grave they had
kept up ever since, was still alive, quite well and in a very
comfortable position.

VICTORIA CLUB BETTIN G.—Trirs DAY.
The feature of the Market operations to-day was
the advance of Clarice (who was said to have won
her trial) for the City and Suburban. Defiance
also came with a rush consequent on a heavy com-
mission being executed in his favour. Mayonaise
was scarcely in such good odour as yesterday, but
Vespasian was steady at his quoted price. For the
Metropolitan Lord of the Dales was in most re-
quest, and at the close there was little to choose be-
tween him and Dunsany for favouritism. Scarcely
anything was done on the " Guineas" or Derby.

TRAINING QUARTERS.

(TIIIS DAY.)

NE WMARKE T.

Qui Vive went a rattling mile and a half spin
this morning, and Nike, Problem, Katty, Narino,
Tempest, Russ in Urbe, and Osprey did work,
varying from a mile to a mile and a quarter, gal-
loping in good form. Troublesome, Kangaroo,
Chapel Royal, Paaacea, Novice, and Sweet Anne,
all were in active exercise. Wild Agnes did
a mile and a quarter very fast, and Vespasian
followed Bromidelaw over a mile. With regard
to our Metropolitan lot, Bretoline, Ca►uilla, Leases,
Greenback, Primrose, Ambition, Orue, The
Am ►n d a colt, Blinkhoolie, Quick March, Apsley,
Tourmalin, Sydinonton, Sealskin, and 'Cormentor,
the three latter, with Ambition, are going the best
of any of them, and we believe most in Tournaalin
and Ambition, Tormentor being in reserve for
something later. The Rake is improving daily ;
and Dragon, D'Estourncl, The Hermit, Knight of
the Garter, Star of India, and Julius severally
galloped from a mile and a quarter to a mile and
a half.
