Marksman has not yet made his reappearance at
work. Drislanc's team—Peggy, Tribune, General
Sherman, Spurgeon, and Patrician—had three
canters each. Wetherell's Bliss, Lady Diana,
Singapore, and The Don had a couple of sharp
canters; after which Bliss and Lady Diana went a

steadily about a mile each time, led by Edgbaston.

part of the way by Water Cure, his other bonus

horses mentioned on thatday from Price's, Blanton's
and Boyce's separate stables.

HEDNESFORD.

walking and trotting round the paddock they went
on the far hills, but they only cantered. Amongst
them were Tacitus, Uncas, Rupert's dam colt,
Selim, Alicz Lee, Torch, filly and colt by Ben
Webster. La Muctte, The Rock, Lady Zetland,
and Gauvernaute look pretty well. Selim goes
rather dickey.

FINDON.
On Thursday and Friday we have bad two very
cold mornings, more like March than August, still
the horses from both the Findon and Michell Grove
stables were out both days by five o'clock, but they
did nothing beyond walking exercise, with the ex-
ception of Longdown, Mistletoe, Proserpine, Sweet
Home, Potomac, Gilead, Princess Thyrn, and two
others, who had two steady canters of a couple of
miles each morning. Dwain Glyndwr has been
walking each morning along with the other horses.

of walking exercise the string returned home, there
being every appearance of a wet day.—Sportsman.

MR. BRIGIIT AND THE REPRESENTATION OF MI-
NORITIES.—The following letter from Mr. J. Bright, M.l'.,
addressed to a leading member of the Liberal party in Bir-
mingham, was received on Wednesday afternoon :—" My
dear sir,—You soo the vote in the Lords. It partially dis-
franchises Birmingham. Instead of your having three
voices, or two, in a great division on a great principle, you
are now to have only one. Your future Tory member will
with me or with Mr. Dixon; and there will be left only
pair wi
ono vote for your great community. Birmingham is now
to be reduced to the position and weight of Arundel or
Caine in a great Parliamentary division, and this in the
year of Reform and extension of popular power! You
will see that certain of the Whig peers have joined this
childish or nefarious scheme. It is not the less danger-
ous on that account. I hope you will take some steps to
counteract this proposition. Tho great towns should
send deputations up to London to urge the Government
to maintain the integrity of the bill. Ido not think
Mr. Disraeli wishes to injuro the bill He spoke ear-
nestly against this scheme in the house, and I hope he
will adhere to his own view on so grave a matter. You
should not for a moment dream of consenting to the auda-
cious proposal to destroy the political weight pnd force of
your borough.—l am, sincerely yours, JOHN BRIGHT.—
Manchester, Jnly 31, 1867." The Birmingham Post under-
stands that, recognising the vital importance of the ques-
tion to Birmingham, and the necessity for vigorous and
prompt action, certain members of the Reform League
would confer with tin chairman and secretary of the Bir-
mingham Liberal Association yesterday, with a view to
appointing a deputation to wait upon the Chancellor of
the Exchequer.
