Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manaser
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, chilaien, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly, requested, and will be
gratefully received

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING—TuEsDAY.

THE CAMBRIDGESHIRE.
The usual invasion that we now make up our minds to
on the great days at Newmarket, and which this year,
thanks to ss. specials, has swelled into larger proportions
than ever—the same reckless dashing to and fro of horses
and carriages, the latter, though, somewhat impeded by
the heavy ground—the stentorian voice of Martin Starling
raised in alternate objurgation and entreaty as ever and
anon the sacred turf of the course was invaded by the
hordesfrom Whitechapel and Shoreditch—the county fami-
lies, with their well stocked luncheon baskets, and the
Cambridge undergraduates on their much-enduring hacks,
were all there on this occasion—not quite so large an as-
semblage as on the Cesarewitch day, but quite large enough.
Nor is the Cambridgeshire so interesting or exciting a
race. as the first of the two great handicaps. The capabili-
ties of so many of the competitors in the last have been
pretty accurately estimated by their running in the first
that there is hardly any difficulty in " spotting" favourites
or predicting on what the money will be piled. Chepstow
went so well up to a certain point in the long race, where-
in Proserpine was third, that the claims of them both to
bo favourites could not be gainsaid, and since that event
they have kept their positions unquestioned. But as the
time drew near there were fresh candidates for favour, the
most notable Affidavit and Thalia, the latter coming with
an unexpected rush last night at the rooms and displacing
Proserpine, who at one time had seen 11 to 2. £7,000
to £l,OOO was taken by an influential supporter of the Fin-
don stable, and the quotations finally closed with Thalia,
Chepstow, and Proserpine about equal favourites, though
the first-named had a very decided call.
This morning there was a fresh shuffling of the cards,
and the French horse Affidavit was all the rage, while
Thalia slightly retrograded, only to be again brought into
favour before the flag fell. Proserpina, however, must be
considered the first favourite at the finish, as 5 to 1 only
could be obtained about her. There was a long delay at
the post caused by the breakings away of Chepstow, who
was like a mad horse, Moldavia, Cranford, and others, but
Mr. M'Georgo at last succeeded in despatching the lot on
good terms, Proserpine, Ambition, Thalia, Affidavit, and
Wild Agnes, showing 'in front, with Aetwa, and Caithness
(by many people supposed to be Chepstow) lying in the
centre of the course. As they got to the rails Acttea,
and Caithness were alone in it, and a little further on it was
reduced to a match between the first two, Actors, with
always the best of it, winning very cleverly by a length.
Proserpine for the first quarter of a mile was well in front,
and then gave way. Chepstow and Affidavit were never
in it.
The Prince of Wales arrived a short time before the
race, and, mounting a gray Arab, cantered down to the
post to see the horses, returning in time to witness the
race from the new Stand.

Betting-5 to 1 agst Proserpina, 6to 1 each agst Affidavit
and Thalia, 8 to 1 agst Chepstow, 16 to 1 agst Actam, 20 to
1 each agst Jollity, Ambition, Moldavia, and Caithness, 33
to 1 each agst Star, Dalesman, and Dulcimer, 40 to 1 agst
Brown Bread, 1,000 to 15 each agst Out and Outer, Wild
Agnes, Lozenge, and Etoilo Filante.
Through the fractiousness of several of the horses as soon
as they met at the post, among whom Chepstow, Moldavia,
Out and Outer, Fleuretto, and Star were the most conspi-
cuous performers, the start was delayed nearly half an hour.
A favourable opportunity at last presenting itself the sig-
nal was lowered to an excellent start, in which Caithness,
lying in the centre of the widely-spread line of horses
was seen slightly in advance of Actrea, Star, Wild Agnes,
and Ambition, on his right, having Proserpina, Lozenge,
Chepstow, Thalia, Out and Outer, Jollity, and Moldavia on
the lower ground. To these succeeded Affidavit, Claxton,
Abergeldie, Charmetto, and Etoile Filante running in close
company, and a long 'way in whose rear were seen the
colours of Dalesman, Brown Bread, Miss Haworth, The
Czar, and Harefield, who appeared out of it before they
reached the New Stand. Here Chepstow, overpowering
Barker, rushed to the front as they commenced the ascent
of the hill ; but immediately after he ran out, and narrowly
escaped a collision with Out and Outer, whose riders had
to ease their horses to avoid an accident, and the renowned
brother to Chattanooga was seen no more in the race.
This little contretemps left the leaders still in undisputed
possession of their prominent positions, which they retained
to the site of the old Duke's Stand, half a mile from home,
where the severity of the pace had told its tale, and shortly
after Wild Agnes, Out and Outer, Ambition, and Affidavit,
gradually gave way as they came over the hill, followed in
a few strides further by Proserpine and her stable com-
panion, Abergeldie. These retirements left Aches, Thalia
Moldavia, Star, Jollity, and Claxton in attendance upon
Caithness, who retained his lead to halfway up the rails,
where he was headed by Actrea, closely pressed by Thalia,
the pair drawing away when fairly on the top of the hill
race home, Aches, who ran the
and finishing an exciting
longest, winning very cleverly at last by a length. There
were some lengths between the second and third ; Moldavia
was fourth, Jollity fifth, Star sixth, Fleurette seventh, and
Ambition next. The others, who were widely spread and
pulling, being brought up by Dalesman, Miss Haworth,
and Harefield.
