cording to Major Jacob, in the Bombay army. I
know also that the Bombay officers were always
glad to have men of good caste when they could
get them, because they were more orderly
than the lower classes ; and that it would never
have entered into their imaginations to insult the
feelings and prejudices of the men under their cola-
maudby conduct such as Major Jacob advocates.
Great political crimes receive retribution in this
world as well as private on-s. Had the govern-
ment of India not afforded that accursed sect-, the
Mahon-ittans, an occasion to seduce the Hindoos
by the annexation of Oude, we should not have to
lament these frightful massacres which now occupy
our thoughts. I shall be much mistaken if we do
not find, by-ancl-hy,- that the awful atrocities per-
t ctrated at Delhi and elsewhere were committed
by Malt- metmn troopers, fellows of the same nee
and stank') as those who compose " Jacob's Horse."

CIIANTILLY RACES. ' •
The first autumnal meeting (there are to be two this
yea') at Chantilly came off on Sunday, and, as the wet-
ther was splendid, it attracted a numerous attendance.
The business, which consisted of not fewer than seven
events, went off with remarkable spirit, and gave rise to
a good deal of betting. The principal event was the
Emperor's Stake's, of 10,000 f., for which as many as
nineteen horses were entered, and eight of them were
English, while another English horse paid forfeit. Of
these eight only three were taken to the post, Fisherman,
Saunterer, and Commotion ; bat they, as our sporting
readers know, stand high on the English turf. Opposed
to them were four French horses, who rank amongst the
very best France possesses—Monarque, Mlle. de Chan-
tilly, ROnzi, and Duchess. Monarque having, in addi-
tion to many brilliant succes era in France, figured with
great gloire in Entllnd, was the favourite with the
French betting men, and even with a not inconsiderable
portion of the English frequenters of the French turf ;
but of the English wl o came over from England spe-
cially to see the race, and of whom the number was not
few, the greater part spoke confidently
of the English
lot. The result was a bitter disappointment to the
French, Fisherman having won easily, Saunterer having
been second, and Commotion having shared with Mdlle.
de Chantilly the honour of being third, whilst Monarque,
the great Monarque, was nowhere! The triumph of
Fisherman was hailed with shouts by the English. His
owner, M-. Parr, netted for stakes, entries, and one
forfeit, 19,7501, out of which must be deducted 500 f.
for his own entry, and I,ooof. which according to the
conditions have to be paid to the second horse. The
amount which changed bands in betting on this race
must have been very considerable. Of the other events,
it will suffice to say here that in one, the Haras, there
was a dead hear, and that four were 2-yr-old races. These
latter, as usual, excited much interest, and one of them,
the Second Critezion, was as pretty a 2-yr-old race as
was ever witnessed. Count A. de Noailles, Baron de is
Rochette, and M. Reiset acted as stewards ; Mr. Mac-
kensie Grieves, owing to the presence of the English
horses, was in the ju'ige's stand wish the former. Count
de Morny was present.

Prince Alexander of Hesse, brother of the Empress
of Russia, who bas accompanied the Emperor of Russia
to Stuttgard, is also to accompany his Majesty to Wei-
mar for the interview with the Emperor of Austria.
ANTI-CELIBACY CLUBS.—Several female clubs have
been f Tmed in the departments of the Var and the
Gironde for mutual relief against c‘-libacy. The original
club, after which the. others are modelled, has been in
existence for four years. Each member pays
,10f.
monthly to the treasurer. These subscriptions prouce
annually 24,000 f., to which is added the amount niiicd
by tw&-baif-yearly lotteries, of which the pr;zAi are com-
posed of valuable articles, the gift of the members. The
original club is composed of 200 young ladies. At the
end of the year the society is enabled to dispose of
30,000 f. to 40,000 f., which serve to give a marriage per-
tim to two or three of the membero, chosen by ballot.
If the fortinate candidates are not married within a
year the money returns to the common fund, and addi
tional candidates are portioned the following year. The
members of the club continue to Fay their subscriptions
'fcr ten years after their marriage, and are bound to fad
litate by all means in their power the marriage of their
for net associates. The members of the association,
married or single, are bound as long as they live to aid
and succour their fellow members under all ciroum-
t nom
