TATTERSALL'S.

The town betting for the Great St. Leger concludes this
week, and becomes in consequence of considerable inte-
rest. Comparing the books occupied the early part of
the afternoon, and it was not till between four and five
o'clock that any blow was struck ; business then began,
and some changes were soon evident. Stotforth was in
general demand, the odds rapidly falling from 18 to 14 to
1, and plenty to take them ; this of course had an effect
upon Voltaire, who had no friends at 7 to 2 ; this is at-
tributable not only to the above movement, and a suspi-
cion that he has had a trial with Stotforth, but to the ad.
vance of Rowton, who was backed freely at 5 to 1, and
is almost sure to be first favourite before the day; lie is in
the right hands, and there will be no want of money to
force him up. Frederick was also on the rise, 7to 1 be-
ing taken in two or three instances. At the close he ap-
peared to be almost as good as Hercule=, who had no
friends present. Clotilde was also in favour, but did not
spring. The Cup betting was exceedingly flat, and did
not vary from our last quotation in any respect. The re-
port of Lord Cleveland's dangerous indisposition, so indus-
triously circulated last week, so generally credited, and,
apparently, so well authenticated, turns out to have been a

" weak invention of the enemy," for his Lordship has ar-
rived from Germany, is in "excellent lisalch and spirits,"
and likely to last out many St. Legers. We should have
stated as an additional reason for Rowton getting up, that
Mr. Petre's horses ran extremely well at Pontefract last
week, and won all their races. The following are the
present odds :.--..

DONCASTER ST. LEGER.
7 to 2 agst Lord Cleveland's Voltaire
5 to 1 agst Hon. E. Petre's Rowton (taken freely)
7 to 1 agst Lord Lanlford's Sir Hercules (taken)
7 to 1 agst Mr. Forth's Frederick
12 to 1 aget Mr. Ridsdale's Clotilde (taken)
14 to I agst Lord Cleveland's Stotforth
16 to 1 agst Mr. Theobald's The Exquisite (taken)
25 to 1 agst Mr. Scott's Felt
25 to 1 agst Mr. Petre's Apollonia
25 to 1 agst Mr. Athorne's Wandering Boy
35 to 1 agst Duke of Leeds's Rhodocantha colt
35 to 1 agst Mr. Riddell's Lawn Sleeves.

DONCASTER GOLD CUP.
6 to 4 agst Lord Chesterfield's Zineanee
4 to 1 agst His Majesty's Fleur de Lis
4 to 1 agst Major Yarburgh's Laurel.

DROLL WAGER.-THONEAS M. TROUGH-
Tow, one of the bailiffi of the borough of Preston, and son
of the present Mayor, recently made a wager for ten
pounds, with Mr. SHUTTLEWORTII, the Solicitor, that he
would drive two apes in a car through the town of Lan-
caster to the Castle. The event came off on Thursday
lass, when Mr. TROUGHTON triumphantly won his bet,
amidst the cheers of the crowd a,sembled on the Castle-
hill during the Assizes. So vehement was the welcome
which he received, that the cheering was distinctly heard
in the Criminal Court.-11fanclicster Advertiser.

TIIE MOORS.-The sport on the moors still
continues good. The rain and wind drove away many of
the sportsmen last week, and confined the others for several
days to the pleasures of the table and the chase of the
bottle. The return of the fine weather this week has
brought back the stragglers and released the prisoners.—.
Perth Courier.

Two or three failures have taken place in
Leith within the last fortnight, but not for vei y large sums.
We regret to learn that Mr. RENNIE'S bankruptcy has pro-
duced more injury in that port and elsewhere than was at
first supposed, and that many of the sufferers have lost
money under circumstances which render their losses
doubly painful.—Scotsman.

Information was received this morning, that
1,900/. of the money abstracted from the Hamilton Bank
has been recovered ; but the particulars have not trans-
pired. The remaining 100/. is also expected to be re-
covered. An individual belonging to the bank has been
taken into custody, on su'picion of being concerned.
One of the desks is said to have been found deposited in
a garden belonging to one of his relations.— Glasgow
Chronicle.

DAVISON, who was tried with ROBINSON,
the notorious bank-robber, and others, at Exeter, for
plundering the St. Neot's bank of property to the amount
of between 6 and 7,0001. and acquitted of the offence,
has been detained upon a charge of having returned from
transportation before the expiration of his time. After
an examination, he was fully committed for trial.

SA USA GEs.—The sausage-makers are deter-
mined to cut all connexion with the " wet 'uns " for the
time to come; for such has been the ruin entailed on the
trade by the exposures which have taken place during
" the doings of DUNSBY," that at Bartholomew fair, which
was the great annual mart for the consumption of these
savory bits, not a single sausage has been eaten this year,
the ladies and gemrnen devoting themselves entirely to
oysters, through absolute horror of being poisoned by a
" wet 'un

A farmer residing near Solihull, who attends
the Birmingham and Worcester markets, purchased a
humane snare, or mantrap, and placed it in a part of his
grounds most frequented by poachers, without acquainting
his labourers of the circumstance. On the following night
one of the farmer's labourers was caught in the trap, with
a leveret in his possession; and, though he received not
the slightest personal injury, yet his terror was so great,
that it is likely to cure him of a propensity for nocturnal
rambles.

On Saturday last, the 22d ult., a Belfast bul-
lock-boat, bound for Liverpool, was driven by stress of
weather into the Solway Frith, and stranded at or war
Mersehead, parish of Kirkbean. As the sea broke over
the vessel's side, it was found necessary to close the
hatches, and in this way seven cows and bullocks were
smothered, and others so severely beaten that it is feared
they will be of- very little use. While the gale was at its
height, and the hold in a state of uproar, one of the cows
dropped a calf, and a second also calved shortly after it
was taken ashore. The crew and passengers got safely to
land. and one of the latter, to the surprise and amusement
of many, carried a calf on his back or in his arms, with
as much caution as if it had been a little child. One of
the smothered Mile Was sold for a guinea, and several
more were gifted away to those who had been prompt in
assisting the distressed mariners. As the coast at Merse-
head is flat and soft, the vessel received little injury, and
no doubt would be got afloat again when the weather be-
came calm and settled.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.

BOW-STREET.

Joseph West, the prisoner who was remanded on tl:
charge of obtaining 19721. by a forged Custom-hons
warrant, in company with Maynard, who was committe,
last we. k, was this day finally examined and committee
for trial.

CITY MARKETS-(TWO O'CLOCK.)

SUGAR.—The deliveries from the West India

Docks, last week, were heavy, viz.-3,284 hhds.
and 148 trcs. for home consumption, and 14 hhds.
of exportation. The stock yesterday was 45,480
hhds. and 3,506 trcs. The supply of fine Plantation
Stigars is scarce and 68s. per cwt. could be obtained
for them. Middling qualities are taken pretty freely
for the trade. In foreign Sugars there is little
doing this morning. Low goods in the refined
market are in request, but the supply is limited.
• Iltim.—Tne demand for exportation continues
brisk, and there were delivered for the foreign mar-
kets 511 puns. and 23 hhds. last week. For home
consumption the delivery was 233 puns. and 16 hhds.
leaving a stock in the West India Docks of 22,945
puns. and 1,936 hhds. The quotations have not
varied beyond a mere shade since Friday.
COFFEE.—The purchases in Plantation descrip-
tions in the past week were extensive, and prices
were decidedly firm. This morning not much has
been done, but business is expected to be active be-
fore the close of the day.

TEA SALE.—Nearly all the Black Teas have been
got through. The sale is proceeding with some
activity.

TOBACCO.—There is a good deal of speculation
going forward in stemmed Tobacco, at an advance
of id. per lb., in consequence of a prevalence of re-
ports of a short crop. Good and tine qualities of
Virginias are looking up, and Marylands are firm, the
stock being short, of good quality.
OlLS.—Accounts from the fishery are anxiously
expected. Pale Seal has advanced to 301. per tun.
Linseed has fallen to 28/. per tun. Greenland re•
mains at 29/.

COTTON.—BOth here at Liverpool there is rather
more doing in Cotton, but prices are not higher;
the demand is good both for home consumption and
exportation ; about 1,000 bales of Surats offered at
the end of last week were bought in.
Hors.—The duty is called 30,000/. to 37,000/.
Comparatively little doing in Hops, high prices being
demaNded. Picking will become general next week.
BALTIC PRODUCE.—The mercantile advices from
St. Petersburgh states that the Exchange on Lon-
don on the 22d was 10 23-32. There had been
shipped off 89,700 casks of tallow, the price was
102 rubles; Hemp, I 1 1 rubles. Ships arrived,
509; sailed, 395. Here the price is 38s. per cwt.
The delivery last week was heavy, viz., 3,857 casks
to meet the sales previously entered into. The
stock is 18,820 casks. This article is under the
importation price. Hemp is 45/. per ton for clean ;
Flax, 35/. per ton.

MANCHESIER CORN MARKET.—Sept. 5.
•Ye have had very fine weather during the past week,
and the Corn trade has been very dull. At to-day's mar-
ket there were several samptes of New Wheat offering at
10s. 3d. to 10s. 60., the quality excellent, and the condi-
tion better than could have been expected. Our millers
being at present well stocked, did not purchase freely,
either of New or Old, although the latter was offered at
4d. to 6d. per bushel reduction. Oats are reduced 2d. to
3d. per 451 b., but no purchasers at that decline. Beans
are still in good demand. The small advance in Malt has
brought several large manufacturers into the market, but
the consumption being exceedingly small, very little pro-
gress can be made. The advance in Flour cannot be sup-
ported, and a reduction of 2s. to 3s. per sack has been
submitted to where sales could be made.

The Earl of ABERDEEN is sitting to Sir
THOMAS LAWRENCE for a portrait which is intended as a
present to the SECRETARY of STATE for the Home De-
partment. Sir Tuomns is to receive 700 guineas for the
painting.

The fair daughter of Lady STEWART (sister
to the Countess of ABERDEEN) will, it is said, be led to
the hymeneal altar by DAVID BAILLIE, Esq., in the course
of the present month. A magnificent service of plate has
been ordered on the occasion.

Two young ladies, Miss CAREW, of Rose-
green, and Miss CREAN, of Clonmel, took the white veil
at the Presentation Convent, in Clonmel, on Wednesday
morning. The reception was private, but a great many
friends of the young ladies attended to witness this interest-
ing ceremony. The very Rev. Dean FLANNERY officiated.
—Dublin Register.

A marriage in High Life, which has been
some time on the tapis, forms the subject of conversation
at the West end of the town. The lady is extremely
young, beautiful, and highly accomplished; the gentleman
of good family, and of princely fortune, but more than
double the lady's age.

A woman shearing on the farm of Broomitill,
at Forteviot, last week, found a small coin, which she sup-
posed to be brass, but which is a gold coin of the Emperor
ADRIAN in the most beautiful preservation.—Perth
Courier.

In the township of Salford there are seven
places of worship not of the Church of England, viz.:—
Wesleyan ➢lethodists (two Chapels), 900 members ; In-
dependents (two Chapels), 1,150 members; New Jerucs
lem Church, or Swedenborgians, 300; Bible Christians,
150; Unitarians, 150.

A person named RALPH WALSII died i❑
Galway, on Monday last, at the extraordinary age of 104
years. He was in the army in early life, and was placed
on the pension list in the reign of GEORGE the Second !
was gaoler in this town for upwards of 17 years, and pos-
sessed his faculties to the last. A woman als3 died at
Ardley, near this town, a few days ago, aged 113 years !
She possessed her full senses to the last moment.-- Con-
naught Journal.

We are happy to learn that a chapel is about
to be built in the vicinity of St. Giles's for the use of the
thousands of Irish who inhabit that part of the city, and
who have not a single place of worship to congregate in
on the Lord's day. Every nation and people have their
church in London but the Irish. Little wonder they
should be so regardless of keeping the Sabbath holy when
the sacred obligation of doing so is never impressed upon
their minds. We are glad to say that the design has the
support of the highest dignitaries of the church, and we
trust its valuable claims will meet liberal support and ex-
tensive patronage. It is intended that the service shall be
performed in the English language in the morning, and in
the Irish in the evening.
