she is the sole professor, and who are vending dangerous and

P HEASANTS, PARTRIDGES, and
POULTRY.—Landed Proprietors, Gentry, &c., of
the United Kingdom wishing to rear Game for 1868 and
to be successful, are respectfully asked to send six stamps
for Mr. CHAMBERLIN'S new BOOK, containing 800
certificates of the utility of his FOOD. J. C. supplies the
Crowned Heads of England and France and the chief of
the aristocracy. By the use of his "Spanish Meal" any
quantity of birds can be raised.
The hundreds of thousands of heads of Game reared on
my system during the last ten years proves its utility ; the
loss from every cause has not averaged three to the hun-
dred. Gapes and Roup (the two most fatal diseases which
attack game) the birds have boon and always are free
froth. This is attributable to their robust constitution
and excellent condition. Pheasants fed on my food show
their beautiful plumage with hardness and closeness of
feather to the greatest advantage; they cannot be sur-
passed.
The magnificent Foreign and English Pheasants at,the
Zoolcygical Society's Gardens, London, and his Imperial
Majesty's Pheasautry at Compiegne and St. Germains, are
fed with my food.

KINGSCLERE, Thursday.—Sir Joseph Hawley arrived
Overnight late. At daybreak the following left the stables,
The Palmer, Rosicrucian, Green Sleeve, and Blue Gown
were tried on Sydruonton Downs with the following re-
sult : —The Palates first, Blue Gown second, Green Sleeve
third, and Rosicrucian last. They returne Ito the stables
shortly after six o'clock, all sound and well. Soon after

Xi, Pero Gomez, King Cophetua, and Sister to Rosi-
crucian were tried over a mile; Xi, with Wells up,
going in rare form. Satyr galloped two miles, being
joined in tho last mile ' and a quarter by Fakir and
Adosinda. Sir Joseph was again present. At Epsom next
week, in the Botts Stakes, The Palmer will run first or se-
cond. Woodcote Stakes.—Nyl Gau is engaged, but will
not run. Derby.—We must be very formidable, having
such animals as Blue Gown, Green Sleeve, and Rosicrucian
engaged. My present opinion is, all three will run, and
the best will win, and that easily. The following animals
are under orders: —Xi, The Palmer, Sister to Rosicrucian, ,
Rosicrucian, Blue Gown, and Green Sleeve. The first-
named three will, I believe, start on Monday, followed by
the others on Tuesday. Friday. —A wet, foggy morning, 1
and no horses out up to the time of my despatching this
report.
STOCRIIRIDGE.—At Epsom next week we shall no doubt
have a great many horses, but Ido not think they will
leave till Monday morning. In the Heathcote Plate
Athena is engaged, and as she is now in very good form I
think she will win. Woodcote Stakes.—Arbaces has no
chance, us he is not yet fixed to run ; but Flower Girl and
"theOrettifixionfillyare well, and cannot be made better. I
think whichever they trust will win,but I give the preference'
1 to Flower Girl. .Derby.—Lady Elizabeth, The Earl, Athena,
Logarithm, Cock of the Walk, Herald, Mr. Briggs, Equerry,
Tibicon, and Birdseeker are our lot. Lady Elizabeth has
had a thorough preparation, and hail not been sick or sorry
all the winter. It is impossible for her to be made any
better than she is now, and when sho is seen on the
Downs at Epsom the public will find her a much improved
mare. Barring accidents, I assert most positively that she
is sure to win. The Earl is well, and also much improved
since he ran at Newmarket, but at the same time I do not
think he has a ghost of a chance with the mare. Still, I
fancy he will run into a place, and is well worth backing
for that, as he is a certain starter.
NEWDLIRKET.—The Tom Bowline colt walked on Sun-
day, Monday, and Tuesday, which is not a general thing
for horses to do so short a time before the Derby. But on
Wednesday, about eleven o'clock, he, in company with
the Maid of Masharn colt, went on to Joseph Dawson's
private ground, and had two canters of about a mile each,
then came on the tan and galloped steadily. He wore
bandages, and certainly did not go so well as I have seen
him do. On Thursday morning and again this (Friday)
morning ho did similar work to that of Wednesday. Had
he kept all right I believe Newmarket would have been
well represented. Angus, Arran, Lanark, and Innerdale,
although all fit, I don't helieve either could win with
only the saddle on. Paco has left us, with Harvester,
aS also has Speculum. Now the last-named is a remark-
ably sound colt, but, as at Bath, I fear he cannot run under
the weight of Bst 10Ib, although there is no doubt he is
the best in the stable. Gouveruail has left England,
sound and well, to run in the French Derby on Sun-
day. He is a great big, slashing horse, sound as a bell,
and I think will win that event; if so, your readers can
then draw their own conclusions as to his chance for our
own Derby. Of the French lot Nelesko, Rabican, and
Dungan are the only ones at present in England. Rabi-
can, had he kept sound and well, would have been the best,
but time would not allow him to be fully prepared. As to
the other two, I consider them out of the hunt. Slanderer
I would advise to be backed in a handicap over the T.Y.C.,
but certainly not for a struggle like this. Head Centre
and Talk o' the Hill are not fit. Belphegor goes a great
pace, and is very sound, but being one of the roaring
school I bhould think half a mile will suit him best.
Ri,ualist and Spartacus are duffers. Of Baron Rothschild's
—Restitution, King Alfred, and Suffolk—strange opinions
have been formed at times, but it is, I think, now perfectly
clear that Suffolkis the best. He has done, as my reports
will show, any quantity of good work, and I think 1 may
venture to say bite laid on plenty of muscle. He will no
doubt go to the post, and if only as well on the Derby-
day as ho is this morning, he win be fit to run for a man's
life.

ILSLEY.—In the Darby, Orion, Ironmaster, Milton, Cap-
a-Pio, Hatchment, Proctor, and Belfast are engaged. They
aro all well and fit to run, but Hatchruout and Belfast are
very moderate, and aro sure not to sue the post. Cap-a-
Pie is a nice colt, and has very much improved lately, and
might rue, but is not, good enough to stand. Proctor is a
useful horse, and will pay his way, but has no (thane) bore.
Milton and Iromnastor are nut likely to face the starter,
bat if they should go to the post they will have no clizmce,
as the first-named will not ha able to go the pace, and the
latter cannot st:ly the distaace. Orion is going oa as well
as his best friends can wish. On Tuesday, after cantering,
he wont a nice steady gallop by himself of about a mile and
a half. Wednesday.—He had two cantors of half a mile
each, and then Milton led hint a good gallop of a mile and
three-quarters, and I never saw him move in bettor form.
Thursday.—He cantered twice, and then galloped a mile
and three-quarters by himself at a steady pace. No horse
in training can be in bettor health and condition, and he
will be sure to take his own part for the great Surrey
prize. Ho might finish in the first throe, but I don't think
he can quite win, as I fancy ho will not be able quite to
stay home.

EPSOM. —At Epsom on the first day wo have Cairo,
Prince Paul, Atnpleforth, Bonnie Katie, Pearl Mosque,
lieronnianus, and Vanbrugh in the Reathcote Plate, but
neither of thorn has the remotest chance in such com-
pany. Rous Stakes.—Tho Faun and Warlike are in, and
I prefer the former. Wood.cote Stakes.—We shall be re-
presented by Antias or Electricity, and whichever of the
pair runs will bo near winning. We have others engaged,
but they are not worth mentioning. Wednesday.—Epsom
Town Plate.—Laird of Scotland, Warlike, Prince Paul,
and Lord Derby aro our lot. The last-named has been
doing plenty of work lately, and he is well in with fiat 51b.
Bentinck Plato.—Breach of Promise, Laird of Scotland,
Warlike, Redivivus, Professor Anderson, Beatrice Grey,
and Shamrock aro engaged, but I think one of the tep-
weights will be found good enough to beat them all. Oaks.
—Queen Ebbe, Lady Glencora, and Aurifera are all we
have engaged, and the only certainty about them is that
neither of them will soo the post.
MALTON.—We have four horses engaged in the Derby,
viz., Viscount, The Spy, Thorsgill, and Betrayal. The
Whitewall horse Viscount has undergone one of the bast
preparations I have witnessed for some time. The Spy
and Thorsgill have been taking things easy of late, but
will render a good account of themselves at some future
date. Betrayal is turned out of training and getting ready
for stud purposes. In the Oaks we have Merry and Wise,
Booty, and Thankful. These fillies are all looking and
going well, but not having done sufficient work to satisfy
me, I am led to believe they will be absentees.
FYFIELD. —ln the Roue Stakes wo have Skipjack en-
gaged, and he is very fit and well just now, and ought to
be near winning with his light weight. Woodcote Stakes
—The Overture's dam filly, Juanita, and Acton aro in.
Juanita is the best, but your readers must have so lately
seen her form that I need say no more of her. Darby—
Boanorges and Franchise are our representatives. Bowler-
ges is well, but useless for such a race as this ; moreover,
I don't think he is over sound in his wind. Franchise is
exceedingly fit and well, and striding along in good form.
MIDDLEIIAM.—In the Derby we have Mercury, Tabouret,
Donaldbain, Latooka, and the colt by Buccaneer out of
Viscountess, and all aro doing good work. The latter is
a good-looking colt, but I think the hard ground has rather
affected him, as he goes rather short, and has only done
mile and a half work since my last. Donaldbain has a
good turn of speed, but I think the Derby course will be
too severe for hint. Latooka is only moderate, and has,
moreover, bad feet. Mercury went a good mile and a half
gallop on Tuesday with Czar, and on Wednesday a good
two-mile gallop with Czar and Dean.
lIEDNESFORD.-011r Derby horse, Uncas, has boon doing
very little. One day ho only walked, and several morn-
ings only cantered with a very light weight on his back.
On Tuesday he came out very late, and his owner was
here, and walked with hint on the far hills and back to his
stable. Ile is as well to look at as ever, but some of the
talent here think that all is up with hint for the Derby,
and lam sorry to say lam of the same opinion. The fol
lowing of Cliff's are all right, and doing work :—Melody,
Namouna, Wakefield, Master Thomas, filly by Knight of
Kars, filly by Ben Webster, Lizzie Ilexham, Torch, Pha-
real], Verity, Kidderminster, gelding _by Do Clare, Green-
horn, Ambition, awl Vermicelli. This lot is most likely
to be wanted first. We shall have nothing at Epsom but
platers, bar Uucas, and I ,!eel certain ho can't win. I begin
to despair about his obtaining a situation.
STANTON.—Our 10t for the Derby are, See Saw, Baton-
flier, Runic, Cattou, Balkh colt, and the Ranee colt. The
last-named has no chance, as he broke down a short time
since. The Balkh colt is not fit, having been iu training
only a short time. Catton is not class good enough for a
Derby, and is also deficient of stamina. Rorie has done a
deal of work, but is wanting in speed, and will stand no
chance. Batonnier is a smart horse, and has done plenty
of work, having undergone a steady preparation. Ile be-
longs to a Capt. Baron, about whom there is some mystery,
a report being iu circulation here that ho has boon shot.
Let this be as it may, Batounior must be put down as
a doubtful starter. Noither do I think the horse quite

good enough to win a race like this, although he has

male See-Saw gallop on more than ono occasion.
See Saw, the past few days, has been sent along in fine
style, and I can assure you he has vastly improved in his
gallops, and from tho amount of work he has been doing
lately must be wanted immediately for some sharp tussle.
Ho is, however, also in the Grand Prize cf Paris and the
Prince of Wales's Stakes at Ascot, and rumour says he will
b 3 reserved for some of these events.

LEWES.—For Epsom on the first day we have, in the
Woodcote Stakes, Music, but as she has not done any work
for some time past, I should think she will not be sent.
Derby.--The only horse from hero at all likely to run is
Samson, and he has had a good steady preparation, but
still I think he is to be made a little better. Should he be
sent he will take his own part, and in my humble opinion
beat a lot of those that have figured iu the betting
more frequently. The colt is looking very well indeed,
gallops strong, and is very sound. Thursday—Music is
in the Two Year Old Stakes, but I think will not run.
Friday.—Two Year Old Plate—Of Festive and Soffinka,
the first-named has been amiss for some time, and will not
run, and Soffinka is not good enough for this company.

CHILTON.—In looking over the programme I find that
we have nothing engaged at Epsom next week, therefore
my report will be very brief this time, as a great many of
our horses are at Croydon and Harpenden. I expect most
of them will have an easy time of it next week. Those
left at home aro doing rattling work, v:z. :—Achua,
Virginia Creeper, Clatford, Precocious, Cara, Careful,
Prime Minister colt, and the colt by Muscovite.
FINDON —Although we have several horses here engaged
in the Derby, there is none with any chance, therefore I
consider it is not necessary for me to do more than name
them. They are the following:—Madrid, Sir David Gam,
John Leech, Examiner, and Gilbert Hannan. I see Prin-
ciple quoted in the lists at 2,000 to 1, but I beg to inform
the unwary, to whom such tempting baits aro thrown not
without success, that -Principle is drad, and thtioriAla would

•
have to be considerably increased to give him a ghost of
a chance! Ifeathcote Plate—Cocoa Nut is engaged, and
she is rather a nice kind of mare, and must not be over-
looked.

RICHMOND.—Lord Ronald has already left here for Ep-
som, where he is going to test the abilities of some two
year olds. For all that, he will run in the Rous Stakes on
Tuesday, for which he will run well, as he has done capi-
tally of late. In the Derby we have Chelsea, Buttercup,
Diomedia colt, Entremet colt, Viridior, and The Sawyer.
Of this lot not one will leave Richmond for Epsom with-
out it be the Sawyer, and at the time, of penning these re-
marks I have nut heard finally whetter he goes, as his
owner has been here to see him, and is now at Belleisle.
Sawyer, though on a small scale, is very neat and compact,
possessing great power, and is a beautiful mover. He has a
most uncertain temper, however, and is a bad starter,
though, should ho get well away with his horses, The
Sawyer will run respectably; still, I have not the slightest
expectation of his winning.
LAMBOITILNE. —Mr. Merry was down hero on Wednes-
day, and several trials took place. In the first the St.
Albans colt was first ; Miss Hayes, second ; Crocus, third ;
Stockwell colt, fourth. In the second, Disguise was first ;
Morgan La Faye filly, second; Lady Lurewell filly, third ;
and Clothilde filly, fourth. Then Miss Croft and North Briton
had a rough up, and Miss Croft got the best of it. In getting
this information, at the same time not infringing upon p. iv ate
rights, I was attacked on the high road by a couple of
Russley "Fenian" armed with heavy sticks, and fol-
lowed by an immense bull-dog. Although unarmed my-
self, the dastards fell upon me, and one of them striking
me across the loins, nearly keocked ine silly, and when
they saw a pal of mine coming up the cowardly wretches
decamped, bulldog and all! You may be sure I lot 'em
have it as well as I could. We have Liddington in the
Heathcote Plato, but his running at Bath seems to put him
out of court. Woodcote Stakes.—We have Defender,
Black Jimmy, North Briton, Plenipotentiary, and the colt
by Steckwell out of Catherine Hayes, and I shall be
very much deceived if the Stockwell does not run a great
horse.

MINING INTELLIGENCE.

The Silver Bend Reporter says :—" Professor
Vincent, while here a few weeks since for the pur-
pose of examining and reporting upon the mines of
the Belmont Company in the interest of Loudon
capitalists, selected about a ton of ore from the
dump of the Transylvania for the purpose of test-
ing its yield by a perfect process of working. We
learn by the Reveille that the ore was reduced at the
Keystone mill, and gave a pulp assay of $392 of
sil-
ver per ton. The lot of ore was not closely assorted,
though it is not pretended that it is an average of
the ledge." Alluding to the South, it remarks,—
" that the bottom of the incline, 130 ft. from the
surface, a level has been run south along the lode.
This is now completed a distance of 30 ft., and dis-
closes an excellent quality of ore all the way, but at
the extremity just reached, it exceeds anything yet
found in the mine, and shows a large body of as
rich ore as has ever been raised from any mine in
this section. Upon this mine there has recently
been discovered a splendid body of chloride ore
upon the :main surface, about 200 ft. from the
main incline." The correspondent of the TVall-
Street Journal writes from Austin, 30th April :
The Stetefeldt Furnace does not seem to be very
generally sought after by mill men as yet ; in fact,
it is seldom spoken of except by a certain few. Tne
Manhattan Company received their new shaft,
which has been placed in position, and the mill is
once more doing good work. The Combination Mill
sends in bricks regularly, but it is said by the em-
ployes that many improvements must be made before
it can be considered a success. Belmont Company's
Mill is also mining and producing fair returns.
The Eldorado South is now supplying the mill
with ore. This company has attained the
depth of 135 feet, and is now running levels to
connect with another incline to secure pure air.
I presume this property will belong to English
capital before my next, and will be worked vigor-
ously and systematically. Knickerbocker Mill of
lone sends in a few bars occasionally, but the mines
in that vicinity are not being pushed ahead with
any considerable energy. The greatest enterprise
is shown by the Hamilton Company, not in mining
exactly, but in the sale of handsome bonds. I see
by the Court proceedings that a judgment has been
obtained against the Old Dominion Company at
Hot Creek for-a very small amount. This pro-
bably will be the first of a series which will end by
a new company taking the property. Our shipment
for March was a little over $200,000, and will in-
crease nearly every month during the year.
The Keystone Mill was totally destroyed by fire
April 6. It was situated a mile and a half from
Austin, and insured for $65,000, of which $35,000
falls on a London company. General Page, the
manager, was present shortly after the fire broke
out, but was unable, notwithstanding the efforts of
a hundred men, to check the flames.
A very rich lode has been discovered in the dis-
trict of White Pine, which has not inaptly been
named the Hidden Treasure. It is represented
to be from 15 feet to 25 feet wide, and containing
a stratum 5 feet thick of singular looking but very
rich ore. The unlikely stuff baffled the experience
and judgment of all the miners on the ground, who
saw no reason for believing that it contained even a
trace of silver. Samples of the ore were brought
to this city and assayed in different offices, and the
results ranged from $675 to $2,700 and $2,300 per
ton. •

rADvEßTisEmENT.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
T hese highly-esteemed medicaments cannot bo;t oo strongly
recommended for curing most of the maladies to which
humanity is heir. They are as suitable for the child first
entering on the journey of life as for aged and infirm. The
ointment is a specific for the cuts, bruises, abrasions, and
eruptions often witnessed in the nursery ; and it is no less
efficient in healing up soundly and permanently the chronic
ulcers and bad legs which so often heap up misery on ad-
vanced years. By an early attention to the instructions
wrapped round each packet of ointment and pills any mo-
derately intelligent person may,abridge or avert the dis-
comfort and misery of chronic ill-health.
