Sir Robert opened at the-Same figure as on Monday, which,
after a small investinent, went begging. The Prior, who fol-
lowed close in his wake, was in frequent requelt, and cannot
be quoted a fraction more than 16 to 1 ; we question, indeed,
if this be not a point above his actual market price. Merry
Andrew, with, an influential and rather numerous party, were
supported freely at 20 to 1, and in three or four places at
18 to 1. Winter, Pharaoh, and Young Lochinvar, were also
in some favour, but were not backed to any amount.

Leander again played " first fiddle," and to so lively a tune,,
that an outlay of about 5001. at 14 to 1 failed to satisfy his
supporters; 13 to 1 was the highest offer at the break up.
Orlando was also backed with considerable spirit, and in the
course of the afternoon sprung from 20 to 17 to 1. On the
other hand, Loadstone receded three points, and had not a
voice raised in his support. Takers of 35 to 1 about Voltri,
and of 40 to 1 about Apprentice, the two favourites. T'Auld
Squire, Running Rein, and Cockamaroo, as before. Plenty
of offers to bet against lonian, but for want of backers no
price made. (On dit, that Running Rein has been examined
by a veterinary surgeon, and pronounced a four-year old! an
opinion directly opposed to the evidence upon which Mr. Good-
man defeated the Duke of Rutland's objection at NeW-.

THREE SUPPLEMENTS GRATIS,
WITH THE " DISPATCH."
GREAT NATIONAL TRIAL AT DUBLIN.

The immense size of THE WEEKLY DISPATCH has,
hitherto, enabled its Proprietors on all occasions to preset*, a
copious, and, at the same time, interesting account of the events
of each week. It is, however, now found utterly impossible to
give anything like a faithful report of the Trial of Mr. O'Con
nell and his Repeal associates, without excluding a great mass of
interesting domestic and foreign intelligence • the Proprietors,
therefore, feel that their journal, will& has been for years, and
is new, honoured with more patronage than any other in ex-
istence, should be, in all respects, complete; and, with that
view, they intend to insert a summary of the proceedings
during the progress of the trial in their usual columns, and
present to their friends and subscribers
THREE SUPPLEMENTS. GRATIS,
Which will be published in the following order, viz. :
The first on SUNDAY NEXT, February 4,
containing Mr. Shell's speech, which may be 16
onsidered the gem of oratory

WEEKLY DISPATCH, on the Sunday.suc-
ceeding the delivery of the Verdict, containing
the Speeches of Mr. O'Connell, Sir C. O'Logh-
in, the Attorney-General, and other leading
Counsel; together with the Summing up of the I
Judge, the Verdict of the Jury, and other matters
of importance that may arise up to the latest
hour, for which the services of several short-hand
writers of eminence have b (ea engaged
- The third on the Sunday following (also of the-
full size of THE WEEKLY DISPATCH)

embrace the proceedings from the commence-
ment to that stage at which the first begins;
so that every subscriber to THE WEEKLY .
DISPATCH will be in possession of a com-
plete and faithful report of this great national
trial—a trial which must become a matter of
history, and ever be regarded as an event of no
ordinary importance in after time

A BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OP MR. (WON-
NELL will precede the account of the Trial, which will
be written by a gentleman intimately acquainted with -the
great Agitator," and consequently une who has treasured up

been, for several days, at• from 3 to 5 degrees above zero of
Reaumur, from 38 to 44 degrees of Fahrenheit, and the sun
