BETTING AT MANCHESTER-TUESDAY.

For the Goodwood Stakes the Elcho " furore" had some •
what abated ; 3 to 1 was freely offered. Starke, Schism,
and Shipwreck were each vcry steadily supported. Of
course we quote the prices taken, but it seemed that each of
them would be at a less figure.—For the Cup, Optimist,
Mons Etoile, The Wizard, and Thormanby had supporters
at their respective prices. It is difficult to affix a proper
position to Doefoot ; whilst Ben Webster, who up till to-day
appeared as firm as anything, receded to 20 to 1 (offered),
and, as a consequence, was quite friendless.—The Ascot
Stakes had very little attention, few parties doing business
upon them. Closing prices :

DUBLIN, TUESDAY.
Baron Trughos oper.ca the Commission in Arni;t6h
yesterday. He congratulated the grand jury on
the tranquillity and prosperity of the country. He
and his colleague had just come from three counties
on their circuit, in one of which the calendar did
not present . a single prisoner for trial. In the
other two there was but ono for each. Armagh
was not so free from crime, but it presented a
favourable contrast to what it did at the last Spring
Assizes. His lordship then referred to the parties
charged with the violation of the Processions Act
on the 12th of July. As I anticipated some days
ago, the Attorney-General has abandoned the pro•
secutions in the cases arising out of the Derryma-
cash riots. The traversers had pleaded " Guilty"
to the minor offences, and the Crown entered a nolle
prosequi with reference to the more serious charges.
The Attorney-General expressed the satisfaction
which he felt in common with every person of well
regulated mind at the peaceable state of the pro-
vince during the present month, which presented a
pleasing contrast to the corresponding period in
former years.
The trial of the action for libel brought by the
Rev. Patrick Lavelle against Lord Oranmore com-,
menced at the Galway Assizes, yesterday, before
Baron Fitzgerald and a special jury. The court
was surrounded at an early hour by ladies and gen-
' tlemen anxious to obtain admittance. The plaintiff
has specially retained Mr. Butt, Q.C., and the de-
fendant Mr. Whiteside, Q.C. The alleged libel
was contained in a letter published by Lord Oran-
more. The plaintiff's case closed yesterday. The
damages were laid at £2,000.
The ages of the Irish prelates are beginning to
excite a lively interest in ecclesiastical circles. Ac-
cordingly the Irish Ecclesiastical Gazette has pub-
lished them. They are as follows ;—Armagh, 88 ;
Dublin, 74; Cashel, 78 ; Killaloc, 77 ; Meath, 75 ;
Limerick, 75 ; Tuam, 69 ; Derry, 68 ; Ossory, 67 ;
Kilmore, 60 ; Down, 52 ; Cork, 47.
The TOWA Council of Belfast have agreed to a
memorial to the Lord-Lieutenant to appoint a local
Recorder for the town of Belfast. The Northern
JV Mg says that since the abolition of the Manor
Courts, without providing a substitute, the condi-
tion of the Quarter Sessions Court has been an
obstructive grievance such as no town but Belfast
would have endured. The Town Council have
voted £2OO towards the Recorder's salary.
