Odd Trick, Laodarnia, Wouvermans, and Worcester
were the only animali in demand for the Northampton-
shire Stakes, Laodamia and Wouvermans being backed
for most money. Toxlpholite was in favour both for
the Two Thousand and the Derby ; 6 to 1 would have
been taken about him freely for the first-named event,
and 11 to 1 was scarcely attainable about him for the
latter.

LADY LONDONDERRY'S ADDRESS IN A
'SUNDAY SCHOuL.

On Sunday last, says the Northern, Daily Press,
the new schools at Seaham, which have been built
at the sole expense of the _Marchioness of London-
derry for the benefit of her workpeople in the neigh-
bourhood, were opened by her ladyship in person.
The proceedings commenced with a hymn sung
by the children, and an appropriate prayer by the
Rev. Mr. Sco t ; after which Lady Londonderry
delivered the following address :
"My young friends,—l trust you will feel that
in building this school, which by God's mercy I
have been permitted to open this day, I give you
the strongest proof of my interest in your welfare.
You all know the parable of the Ten Talents, and 1
doubt not you think a large portion has fallen to
my share. I do not deny this, or seek to shun the
accompanying responsibility ; and while I reflect
on the number of persons in my employ, and de-
pendent upon me, my heart sinks and fails to as-
sure me that I can do my duty by all ; but here, at
least, under my own eye, and near my own hearth,
I humbly trust that I have not been found want-
ing. A church is provid.d for you, where, if you do
not attend, the fault will rest on your own head
—a school, where if you do not send your children,
the sin will be yours. And I have had the good
fortune to find as excellent clergyman to take
eharge of you, whose talents and merits, as well as
his devotion to his duty, need no praise from me ;
for short as is the period he has been among you—
heavily as he been tried by sickness and anxiety—
from all I hear, I believe you have learned to ap-
preciate and value him. Do not imagine I take
credit for anything I have done ; I ferl I am only
an instrument in God's hands, and s) far as this
new mining district is concerned, I have been per-
mitted to effect thus much; but remember, having
done so, here my responsibility ends and yours be-
gins. The school, teachers, church, and minister are
all provided for you, and the talents are now trans-
ferred from me to you—bewar how you misuse
them. Respect and obey the voice of your clergy-
man; frequent and worship in that church, and make
your children attend this school. You have now
no valid excuse—see you make no idle one. Re-
member youth is the time to learn, as spring is the
seed time and autumn the harvest ; and as you sow
so shill you reap. In the worts of Scripture,
Train up a child in the way he should go, and
when he is old he will not depart from it.' Do not
sacrifice your children's welfare in time and eter-
nity from a selfish desire to avail yourselves cf
their services and assistance in household duties, or
from a greediness of gain in teeking them to earn
the meat that perishetb, before they have laid up
some spiritual store of that treasure which no man
can take away. I can but humbly counsel, and
having done so much, leave the event in God's
hands, only assuring you of my anxious desire to
advise you aright, and my earnest wish to do my
duty by all who from circumstances are more pecu-
liarly under my care."
This address, delivered with much feeling, and
with that power and clearness of enunciation for
which the noble Marchioness is remarkable, was
heard with the deepest attention, and appeared to
ice oduce an impression which augurs well for the
furtherance of the benevolent purpose so deeply
cherished, and so powerfully expressed by the noble
founder of the school. We cannot but heartily wish
God speed to every such undertaking.

and third; bad fourth. An objection to the winner on
