[ADVERTISEMENT:j—There is no remedy Equal to
Holloway's Pills for the cure of Dropsy.—Mr. James Smith,
of Oxford-street, Manchester, suffered for years from a dropt
sisal complaint, his body and legs were swollen to a most
alarming extent, and no hopes whatever were entertained of
his recovery. He was for some time in the hospital, besides
having taken every variety of medicine usually prescribed in
such cases, yet all proved useless, and he was pronounced incur-
able. Holloway's Pills were then resorted to, which soon had
the effect of improving his health and reducing the swelling, so
that now he is perfectly cured of that direful complaint by
taking these wonderful pills.— Sold by all Druggists and at Pro-
fessor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London.

TIIE Paw SYsTEm.—On Sunday ae'nnight, a little
girl, about nine years of age, went to Hurstpierpoint church
in the evening, and fell asleep in one of the pews, where she
was not observed. On the congregation leaving the church,
the sexton fastened all the doors. During the whole night
search was made for the lost child; her mother was of
course in a distracted state, and not till the inc.rning did the
possibility of the child being locked up in the church all
night occur to her. The sexton was applied to; and on
opening the church door the child was found seated at one of
the windows She state 3 that she slept soundly till the sun
shone in at the windows; and she was not at all frightened;
and that immuLliately she awoke she went to the window, in
the expectation of seeing some one pass whom she might
call to her assistauce.—Brighton Gazette.

It is long since the Oaks, as a betting race. has created
so little interest is it Las done this year. Until within
two days of the races few books, and those small ones,
were opened; so heavy, in fact, were the transactions on
the more momentous event deciCed on Wednesday, that
no one seemed to bestow a thought upon it until the dis-
may and excitement produced by the defeat of all the
Derby favourites had subsided. Even then, so paralysed
was the "ring," that the betting on the Downs was
carried on without a shadow of the spirit which of old
characterised the speculations tip to the moment of stat-
ing. The field, it must be admitted, was wretched, but
had it been ever so strong, the anxiety which prevailed
in all quarters with respect to the settling would have
prevented very extensive operations. To the Heather,
then, and to the facilities afforded in all directions for a
cheap and rapid transit to the course, must we attribute
the very large concourse of people collected on the
Downs. It is not enough to say that it cause up to the
Oaks standard, for in our time nothing has approached
it. The stand was nearly full, the enclosure was crowded
to excess, and we venture to assert that the numbers
clustered down the sides of the running ground, and the
vehicles stationed on the hill, exceeded by at least 30
par cent. the best Oaks day on record. That the aristo-
cracy and fashion of the turf were not altogether " want-
ing" the followieg list cf the most distinguished visitors
will prove:

tended by the Hon. James Macdonald; his Serene High-

The racing, as on the Derby day, commenced with: a
handicap plate, but for vvhtch the sport, apart from the
Oaks, would have been anything but up to the mark. This
over, the jockeys weighed for the Oaks, fifteen in num-
ber, one less than had been generally calculated on. Be-
fore describing the race, we should notice two or three
important changes in the lotting. In our list of the probe
ble starters appended to the return of Thursday's racing,
we quoted Ithetlycina at 40 to I. These odds were laid
four or five times, jut Leon we left the Downs, the altera-
tion arising from a rumour that there was a large amount of
arrears due frau the former owner, Mr. Worley, and
that Mr. Hobson was not disposed to pay them. After
we left it transpired that such arrears had been made
good, and the mare immediately rose to half the odds
returned by us. The improvement yesterday was still
inore decided, as little as 5 to 1 haviug been taken at
one time, and or:1y 6 to I laid ut the . close: Eliza Mid-
dleton also came strongly into play, the prestige at-:
welling to a favourite from John Scott's stable helping
to elevate her to the first position in the betting at start-
ing, Probity, likewise, was u " pot," money being sent
in so liberally that. she left erf second favourite.. The
race, owing to the restiveness of Major Martyn's mare,
did'net come off till half-past three o'clock; it was run
at. a bad .pace, nod ails won gait() as easily as the
Der civa having the " command "oilier horses
froixi tirst:to lest. It is not a little singular that No. 7
should be the winning_ number of both Derby'and Oaks,
that tie winners should at cue time at least be looked
upon as " iafir," and that the Danebury stable should
run second in each race. Of the two events decided
after tho.Oeks it is unnecessary to speak—if they had
not bceu run no one would have regretted it.

VAuNtIALL GARDENS.—The regular season at this
favourite place of amusement commenced last evening under
very favourable auspices, the weather being remarkably line.
The entertainment provided for the amusement of the visi-
tors are of a superior order. There is the usual concert in the
open air, sustained by Miss Eliza Nelson, Miss Fanny
lluddart, Mr. Leffler, Mr. Louis Bland (a tenor singer, with
a very sweet voice), Air. J. Burton (the well-known singer
of comic songs), and Mr. Viotti Collins, the accomplished
violin player. Equestrian performances have of lale years
formed one of the chief attractions of Vauxhall Gardens, and
Mr. Wardell, the present manager, seems determined to
secure the services of the best artists in this department.
Mr. T. '1 bompsun'a statuesque performances are a prominent
feature in the programme. There is also a large picture of
the Kremlin, i t Moscow, painted by Mr. W. Batty; and the
entertainments conclude with a magnificent display of fire-
works, under the direction of Mr. Darby. As usual, the
gardens present a splendid appearance when illuminated ; and
for those v. hom the miscellaneous entertainments are nut
sufficient, there is the additional attraction of a ball.
