FRENCH RACES AND STEEPLECHASES

IN 1858.

It appears from an official report just drawn up
that the total amount of stakes and entries won,
n horse races and steeplechases in France; in the
course of the present year was 1,114,976 f. 50e.
Of that sum Baron Niviere, with 13 horses, won
154,012 f. 50e., consisting of 39 events ; Count de
Lagrange, also with 13 horses, 148,600 f., of 17
events ; M. Lupin, 7 horses, 72,483 f., 14 events ;
M. Fasquel, 6 horses, 61,925 f. ; 16 events • Count
de Prado, 1 horse, 61,450 f., 4 events ; M. de Sevin
(in the south), 4 horses, 61,105 f., 16 events ; Mme.
Latache de Fay, 9 horses, 56,100 f, 10 events • Count
'
de Rcederer, 3 horses, 51,585 f., 9 events ; IVOI. de
la Motte, de Monnecove,and their associates, 6 horses,
32,230 f., 10 events • Baron de Nexon, 3 horses,
34,262 f., 11 events ; M. Delamarre, 5 horses, 31,470 E,
11 events; Baron E. Darn, 2h0r5e5,28,325E, 4 events;
M. Du Garreau (south), 3 horses, 25,449 f., 9 events;
M. ianby, 2 horses, 24,425 f., 6 events ; M. A.
Fould, 4 horses, 23,312 f., 14 events ; Count de
Moray, 5 horses, 21,280 E, 7 events • Vicomte A.
Talon. 5 horses, 17,600 f., 7 events ; M. de Silveira,
3 horses, 17,150 E, 9 events ; Vte. Lauriston, 2
horses, 16,200 f., 4 events • M. Barbey (director of
the depot at Angers), 1 itorse 16.290 f., 3 events ;
Count des Cars, 2 horses, 16,285 f.,, 7 events ; M.
C. Leclereq, 2 horses, 15,467 f., 7 events ; M.
Schickler, 2 horses, 16,200 f., 4 events ; Vicomtes
de Chemllle and Montreuil, 4 horses, 15,200 f., 10
events ; and Mr. Merry, M. de Ventoaux, M. de
Terves, M. Mossclmann, Baron Finot, Baron de
Rothschild, Mr. Carter, Duke de Caderouse Gra-
mont, and several others, won from 5,000 f. to
13,750 f each. It will be seen that Baron Niviere's
stud, notwithstanding the serious competition it
had to encounter, won not only the largest
amount of money but the greatest number of
events. Count cue Lagrange, who last year ob-
tained such brilliant success, would not have ar-
rived at the second position if he had not won the
Derby of 63,000 f. M. Lupin won one-half less
this year than he did last, owing, no doubt, to his
horse Potocki, from which great things were ex-
pected, having broken down. The success of M.
Fasquel will be noticed with pleasure, that gen-
tleman having for many years kept a racing esta-
blishment, though winning scarcely anything.
Count de Prado's large winnings with one single
horse form a sufficient compensation for the loss
he sustained on his debut on the turf, by the
famous Aquila, for which he gave 45,000 f., hav-
ing died without once winning. Mme. Latache de
Fay did not unfortunately obtain her usual success.
The stable of MM. de la-Motte and others did not
do so well as had been hoped, owing to the great
steeplechase horse Franc Picard having in handi-
caps had heavier weights imposed than he could
accept. The home which won the greatest number
of events was M. de Sevin's Sylvam—the number
being 9 ; that which won the largest sum was Count
de Lagrange's Ventre St. Gris, winner of the Derby.
Baron Niviere's Miss Cath won five Imperial Stakes
and the Great Imperial Stakes • Mme. Latache de
Fay's Furens was the winner of the St. Leger at
Moulins ; M. de Sevin's Lord Spleen, of the Southern
Derby at Bordeaux ; Count de Prado, of the Em-
peror's and the Produce Stakes at the Bois de Bou-
logne ; and Count Rcederer's Brocoli, of the Trial
Stakes at the same place.

It is reported that Jenny Lind, the Swedish
Nightingale, will appear once more, next summer, at the
Liverpool Philharmonic.
THE HON. MAJOR YELVERTON.—We are autho-
rised to state that, after instituting the most searching in-
vestigation, the Crown authorities in Scotland issued an
order on Saturday, the 20th inst., directing that no further
proceedings be taken under the complaint on which Major
Yelverton was apprehended.--Scotsman.
Intelligence from Brussels states that the, weather
has become unusually severe there for the season of the
year. Snow had fallen in considerable quantities, and
sledges were to be seen in thej parks and on the boule-
yards.
It is said that negotiations have been set on, foot
in London for the Egyptian Loan, but the amount wanted
has not transpired. Hitherto the financial requirements of
the Viceroy in our market have usually been met through
the instrumentality of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam
Company.
AN INFERNAL MACHINE AT THE SHERIFFS'
COURT.—For the purpose of warming the Sheriffs' Court,
an infernal machine, in which coke is burnt, has been
erected. By some unaccountable process it is always hot
and cold at the wrong times, and the furnace emits an at-
mosphere that is perfectly suffocating. If it is requisi' eto
make experiments, surely a public court is not the place.
HOW THE CORPORATION TREAT OLD SERVA.TS

asks leave to retire and and
down
for the remainder of his days. The old servant asks for
the sum of 21s. a-week. Alderman Hale said he saw the
old man the other day and he was as hale as he •(the Alder-
man) was. He moved that the petition lie upon the table.
It did. Verily Alderman Ha'm shall have his reward.
FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT BY FlRE.—Yesterday
morning a frightful accident omurred to Sarah Yates, •age7l
forty years, who resided near Field lane, Saffron-hill,
under the following circumstances .--4 t appears that the
unfortunate sufferer was looking into- a box, with her back
to the fire, when a spark flew out and ignited her dress,
and she became enveloped in• one mass of flame. Her
screams brought as:istance, when the fire was extinguished,
and medical assistance was obtained, who advised her Mime-
diate removal to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, where every aid
was rendered that medical skill could suggest, but she
remains in a dangerous state. .
NEW MEDICAL ACT.—MR. BRADY, M.P., AND
THE COLLEGE COUNCIL.—The case of the members of
the College of Surgeons, as against thtright usurped by the

G ted
by en
Mr.e
Brady, M.P., to counsel, whose opinions have not yet been
definitively pronounced. We understand, however, that it
is considered that there is clear ground for a quo warrant°
against the council of the college, and that it is Mr. Brady's
resolve to test the question in that form in the Court of
Queen's Bench. This day the usual application to the court
will be made by Mr. Edward James, and it will then' rest
with the council of the college to show their tight to elect.
We exhort our brethren to rally round the high-spirited
defender of the profession's rights. This contest will in-
evitably be attended with considerall3 expense, and it would
be indelible disgrace to us if Mr. Brady were permitted
to bear the burden alone. Let a subscription be set on foot
to defray the expenses incidental to this great struggle._
