The betting on this race was confined to a "select few,"
and was strictly in keeping with that on the Chester Cup..
It may be described in a few words. The 'two favourites
were backed for, about 100/.- each; Cockamaroo and lonian for
small sums, Saddlebow at 1,000 to 25 (in one instance only),
the Vat colt at the same odds, to about 40/., Running Rein
at 1,00010 30, the layers refusing to go on, Campunero at
35 to 1, Apprentice at 50 to 1, about 50/., and Sir Isaac. at
1,000 to 10 (two or three parties anxious to go on). Nothing
done about Orlando or Leander, and not the slightest inclina-
tion to back either Loadstone or Foig-a-hallagh.

THE LATE ABDUCTION OF A YOUNG LADY.—There
appeared last week a paragraph respecting the extraordinary
abduction of a young lady, --named Jane Page, only-13 years
of age, by a young farmer of the name. of George-Gardener,
from a seminary in High-Street, Warwick. - 50/. reward was
immediately -offered for their apprehension, but the police
, were unable to trace them out until last Saturday evening,
when they were discovered quartered at an inn in Douglas,
in the Isle of Mari, Naving been away just a week; and cap-
tured full 250 miles from their native place. Gardener was
instantly taken into opittodv by the police, and, having been
conveyed to Stiettont near "Warwick, he on Wednesday 14.4
underwent an examination at the public office before Mr.
J. Fullerton, a county magistrate, the following being the
substance of the evidence, which will be found to be of a
very remarkable character :—The young lady is thedaugh-
ter of a wealthy farmer at Strettob, and, upon her attain-
ing her 18th year, comes into .possession of a large estate.
The prisoner is also very respectable and wealthy, and, being
desirous of becoming a - farmer, he was apprenticed to the
young lady's parent, at). as to be instructed in the several
branches of agriculture.. Hp was considered as ono of the
family, and frequently ha an opportunity of visiting' the
young lady whilst at sciov4; but owing to. heusivy tender
age, not the leaSt idea was entertained by theirfkivlds of an
intimacy existing. On last Saturday week the prisoner went
to the seminary; and informed the Misses' Kimberley, the
proprietors, that he was instructed to convey Miss Page to
her parent's residence, as she was going to stay there a short
time with a few friends, and, under such circumstances, she
was easily parted with. ; The magistrate, in reviewing the
case, remarked that if the prisoner's defence should be that
the young lady was a willing party it would not alter the
offence, as he had absconded with her at such a tender age
that she was considered not to know right from wrong. -.lle
was then fully committed to take his trial at the next assizes
at Warwick, being-liberated on two sureties of 3004 each, and
himself in a like
