POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A CASE FOR THE DIVORCE COURT. —A sailor applied to
Mr. Beadon for advice under the following circumstances :

The applicant stated he had been out to Calcutta in one
of Mr. Lindsay's ships, and while there was laid up in
hospital with dysentery. He, however, remitted half his
pay to his wife regularly, and on his return home was not
a little surprised to find his wife living with another man,
who, he understood, had received the money which he had
sent home. At present he did not know where his wife and
her companion were.

Mr. Beadon said it was a ease for the Divorce Court, but
he had better discover his wife's abode first.

The applicant left the court far from pleased at his posi-
tion and at the result of his application.
SHAKSPERB " AT Two IN THE MORNING.—Two
gentlemanly-looking young men, named Arthur and Chas.
Fraser, 101, John-street, Mortimer-street, and connected
with the theatrical world, were charged as follows :
Hurst, 40 E, said he heard the defendants, with a num-
ber of others standing at the corner of Mortimer-street,
reciting Shakspere in a stentorian tone of voice at about
two that morning. He desired them to move away, and all
did so but the defendants. The defendant Charles then
dared him to interfere with a gentleman, and said, "I com-
pel you to take me to the station house ;" and, as he would
not go away, he took the defendants into custody.
One of the defendants complained that he had been
struck by the officer, but this he denied.
Mr. Beadon asked, if the defendants had any complaint
to make against the officer, why they did not go away when
desired, and afterwards lodge their complaint ?,
The defendants were ordered to enter into their recog-
nizances in the sum of £lO for three months.

THE DREADFUL COLLISION ON THE
HAMPSTEAD JUNCTION LINE.

Yesterday evening the jury, who had been for
several days past engaged in inquiring into the
cause of the death of the 14 persons who had lost
their lives by the recent collision on the Hamp-
stead Juncton Railway, assembled at the Vestry-
hall of St. Pancras for the purpose of signing the
return of the verdict which was delivered by them
on Tuesday last.
Mr. Humphreys, one of the coroners of the
county of Middlesex, by whom the inquest has
been conducted, informed the jury that the duty
they then had to discharge was simply ministerial
—that of signing the several remaining inquisi-
tions similar to the one they signed the preceding
evening.
The documents were then filled up and duly
signed.
The Coroner then asked Murray, the officer,
whether he had been able to execute the warrant
against Henry Rayner ?
Mr. Murray said he had not yei been able to do
so.

The witnesses were then called in, and having
answered to their names, were severally bound
over to appear in support of the prosecution of
the said Henry Rayner at the next session of the
Central Criminal Court, to be holden at the Old
Bailey.
The Coroner, before retiring, said he Was happy
to be able to state that no more deaths had occurred.

-
A juryman asked whether there was any likeli-
hood of any further deaths taking place
The Coroner hoped not, and said the accounts
which he had received were of a favourable cha-
racter, and that he was glad to state that Cox, the
signalman on the North London Railway, and who
was a passenger on the occasion, was doing well.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

WARWICK RACES.-WEDNESDAY.

The stand e sure represented a busy scene during the
morning, when a concourse of breeders, owners, and idlers
took p'ace under the rostrum of Messrs. Tattersall to wit-
ness the sale of blood stock. There were 44 lots led out
under a bright sun, and 19 were sold. The stallion Ethel-
bort headed the list, and was bought in at a trifle under
2,000 guineas. One yearling realised 950 guineas, and a
brood mare 650 guineas. The others did not fetch exorbi-
tant prices. The attendance was larger than that of Tues-
day, and the card gave promise of what was afterwards rea-
lised, a nice day's sport. A field of 13appeared for the Nur-
sery, and the two favourites ran first and second. The
County Handicap had nine runners, and was won by Saw-
cutter in a canter; and the Wizard found no antagonist in
the Cup (an equestrian statuette of her Majesty). The other
races were not pf much importance, but one sad COnti etemps
took place, by which a nice lad was severely hurt, a two•
yr-old having thrown him and trodden on his thigh, which
was much lacerated, but not broken. The last race of all
produced the finest cantest of the day, two heads only hav-
ing separated the first three horses. The entire distance run
in the six races which came off during the day was four
miles and a furlong, the long race (the Cup) having ended
in a walk over. Some betting on the St. Leger took place
at intervals, of which we subjoin a quotation.

The Welter Cup, value 100 sovs, by subscription of 15 sovs
each, 10 ft, and 5 only if declared. Professionals 61b ex-

Betting-6 to 5 agst Sawcutter, 7to 4 agat Prince Impe-
rial, and 5 to 1 agst Greenwich Fair.
Prince Imperial made the running, followed by Sawcut-
ter and Greenwich Fair side by side. At the T.Y.C.
starting post the favourite ran up to Prince Impe-
rial, and on entering the straight obtained a slight lead,
which he held to the end, and won cleverly by a length; a
bad third.

added, for 2-yr-olds. The second horse to save his stake.

Spain, 6 to 1 agst Middleton Maid, 7 to 1 agst Seahorse,
and 100 to 8 each agst Santa Claus and Commander.
Some little time was cut to waste through Middleton
Maid refusing to face the flag. At length the flag was
dropped and the lot left the post in compact order. The
Queen of Spain having a slight lead, which she retained for
the first 100 yards, when Middleton Maid, overpulling her
rider, rushed to the front, and went on with a commanding
lead, followed in Indian file by the Queen of Spain, Sea-
horse, the favourite, and Incitatus, the others lying close
up, at the head of which was seen Commander. In this
order they ran to the entrance into the straight, when
Middleton Maid began to come to her horses, and at the
road The Queen of Spain got to her head, followed by
Genealogie, Seahorse, and Commander, to which lot the
race was confined. Crossing the road Middleton Maid was
beaten, and dropped into the rear, leaving The Queen of
Spain with the lead, who, halfway up, was joined by
Gent alogie, between which pair an exciting set-to ensued,
The Queen of Spain winning cleverly by a neck ; a bad
third. Commander finished fourth, Hartington fifth, and
Incitatus sixth, the others beaten off, the last three being
Prince Edward, Middleton Maid, and Aroma.

best of it, cut eut the work, waited upon by Little Dick,
Prince Plausible, and the Gloom colt, the others lying
close up, with the exception of Sawcutter, Neophyte, and
Lord of the Manor, who appeared to be outpaced. Tra-
versing the Star-meadows, the three last named gradually
improved their positions, and on entering the straight they
joined the front and ran in company to the road, when
Sawcutter came out, and in a few strides headed the favou-

canter by half a dozen lengths ; a bad third ; Lord of the
Manor was fourth, Little Dick fifth, and Neophyte sixth ;

off. On nearing the turn into the straight Acco, who had
considerably improved her position, ran into the front, and
on crossing the road Gauntlet, followed by Rhoabus and the
favourite, came away together, the former with a slight
lead, which he held to the end, and won cleverly by a neck ;
