THE JOCKEY CLUB AND' THE SPORTING PRESS. —Th'e
remainder of the racing was hardly visible from the rain,
which came down in waterspouts, and was very nearly
rendering the appointment of turf reporter to the daily
papers vacant, as the gentleman in question was all but
washed away, and his condition would have awaked pity
in any heart less penetrable than that of a Jockey Club
Oklal. Shelter at Newmarket from weather there is
none, except in the weighing-room ; and from this, as
he has to furnish correct intelligence to some few millions
of human beings, it is thought proper to xclude
So that the unfortunate person, when he arrived at
Newmarket, after his three-mile walk through this
tropical rain, presented vet), much the appearance of
an indiyidual who had spent the afternoon down
a well, instead of on the heath, and many suggested
the application of the remedies to be used in cams
cf persons apparently drowned. Certainly, when we
consider the desperate exertions that are used to secure
the good offiees of the Fourth Estate for a beginner in an
official position, and with what gratitude a simple
"par" is received, it is surprising that people who.have
been made by them should be the first to turn round
and expose its members to treatment worse than their
own domestics would choose to endure. I don't make
these remarks individually, for I never give a chance
away, and am independent of all officials ; but there are
many evcrkers in the cause whore duties compel them to
come in constant contact with the clerk of the scales, and
therefore ought to be treated with ordinary civility and
respect. However. as Admiral Retri has now hoisted
his flag in the club for three yore, it is to be hoped,
under his command, matters will be placed en a mere
satisfactory basic —elmus in tire Mornidg Pose.
BREAD PROII THIS YEAR'S HARVEST.—DIECOT, July
13.—At the market this day farmers win) dined at the
Junction Hotel partook of a pudding made from this
year's growth of wheat. The whole field was cut last
week, and no one present recollected a new crop'being
ready so soon for consumption. Ic was grown by Mr.
Charles Cauld well, of Drayton, near Abingdon, and ma-
nufactured into flour by Richard Bradfield, of Milton.
The produce per acre was estimated by good judges at
five quarters e the quality fine.
A STEED YACHT.—LIVERPOOL, July 14.—A steam
yacht, built of Mr. Clay's puddler] steel plates, the, same
as those used in the building of the Niger expeditionary
steamer Rainbow, described in ?he Sun a few days ago,
was launched this morning &gen the yard of Mr. John
Laird, at Birkenhead. The yacht, which ie 96 feet long,
116 feet 6 inches beau), has a tonnage of 131, and is s ap-
plied with a high-pressure engine of 25 horse-power. It
is intended as a pleasure yacht fur the Duke of Leeds,
is named the "Deerhound," has excellent saloon accorn•
roodation for his Grace and friends, with good space for
captain, engineer, and ere 7. She is Etted with a lifting
screw, is rleeeed as a schooner, and, from her fine lines
and beautiful model, is expected to prove a very fast
sailer as well as steamer. Great credit is due to his
Grace for being, the first to introduce the new material
