TATTERSALL'S. -SEPT. 13.

The room presented a good show to-day, but betting
was more flat than might have been expected. A report
was abroad that Pedlar had beaten Medora in a private
trial ; it appeared, however, to gain little credit; 10 to 4
and 9to 2 were the highest odds offered against the two
favourites, and no takers ; 13 to I was in several instances
offered against Reviewer.

The following horses are all expected to start :
Maineluke, Granby, Matilda, Medora, Reviewer, 'me-
lia, Malek, Popsy, Moonshine, Nivales, Sancho, Pedlar,
Hartpury, Translation, Laurel, Fylde, Jupiter, Nonplus,
Antiope.
Medora and Matilda were taken against Granby, and
offers were made to back Reviewer against Medora.

WORCESTER MUSIC MEETING.

WORCESTER, SEPT. I 2.—Yesterday was the first
of the three days appointed for the Music Meeting
of the three Choirs of Worcester, Hereford, and
Gloucester. For some days previous the town ex-
bibited a scene of unusual bustle and prepuation ;
most of the houses were painted, including the Shire
Hall, which had also a considerable quantity of gld-
ing bestowed upon it. Visitors poured in from all
quarters down to a late hour on Monday night. At
nine o'clock the Duke and Duchess of St. Alban's
arrived at the Hop Pole, in great state, having the
carriages and four ; a vast crowd was assembled out-
side the Inn to see her Grace.

Great expectations had been excited as to the
superiority of the present Meeting, from its being
known that the Dean took so lively an interest in
its success, and in endeavouricg to excel all former
Meetings in the assemblage ef first-rate talent, both
vocal and instrumental ; added to which, he had ob-
tained his Majesty's patronage. In the list of per-
formers (instrumental) were seen the names ef Dra-
gonetti, Lindley, F. Cramer, Harper, Marriotti, and
Wilinan. Vocalists : Pasta, Zucchelli, Caradori,
Braham, Phillips, Miss Stephens, and Mrs. W.
Knyvett. It is rumoured that Madame Pasta is to
receive 4001. Zucchelli has come all, the way from
Paris.

The doors of the Cathedral were thrown open at
half-past nine in the morning, and gradually filled
with company, until the hour of performance, eleven
o'clock; the admission being, for this day, half-a-
crown to the Chancel Gallery, and five shillings to
the Choir. The seats in the latter were not entirely
filled. The arrangements for the accommodation of
the company were most excellent, and reflect great
credit on the management of the Stewards.

The fitting up of Orchestra had an imposing ef-
fect, when viewed from the Gallery; with the excep-
tion, however, of the scarlet paper ornament in the front
which ought to have been of crimson cloth or baize, to
correspond with the rest of the temporary furniture
of the building. The Bishop and Dignitaries of the
Church were seated on the right of the Choir, and
the Corporation en the left.
The performance was nearly the same as that
which takes place at St. Paul's on the Anniversary
of the Sons of the Clergy. Overture (Esther) ;
Grand Dettingen Te Deum ; Handel's Anthem,
" Blessed is he ;" Duet, " Here shall soft Charity.
repair" (Boyce); and Coronation Anthem, " Za-
dok the Priest" (Handel). The solo parts, were
sung by Braham, Phillips, Vaughan, and Mr. and
Mrs. Knyvett.

cbaunt, as given by them, owing to the number of
bass voices, had a truly sublime effect. The five
trombones in the band gave to the performance of
the Dettingen " Te Deum," a grandeur which it
should never be without.

. _
Mr. J. Cramer led, Mr. Mutlow presided at the
organ, mid Mr. C. Clarke conducted. The sermon
was preached by the Rev. W. F. Hook. After the
performance was over, which was about half-past two
o'clock, a collection was made at the doors for the
charity. The plates were held by ladies of rank and
distinction. Among them we observed the Duchess
of St. Alban's.

The sum collected amounted to 236/., one hundred
and three pounds more than was collected on the
first day of the last Meeting.
In the evening a concert was given in the College
Hall, which was well fitted up for the occasion : a
large transparency of the Royal Arms was placed
at the orchestra-end of the Rooms. Among the
company present we noticed Baron Cetto, the Ba-
varian Minister, the Countess of Coventry, Viscount
Deerhurst, &c. &c.

The concert commenced at half-past seven o'clock
with Beethoven's Prometheus Overture. Madame
Pasta and Zucehelli sung Mosca's duet " 10 di tutto,"
and were loudly applauded by the audience. Pasta,
also, sung " 0 come rapida" (Meyerbeer), and her
favourite " Di Tanti," in which she was encored.
Mozart's duet, " Sul l'aria" (Figaro), by Fasta and
Caradori, was likewise encored. Signer Zucchelli
was encored in " Non piu andrai.". The second act
opened with Mozart's fine Sinfoniain E flat. Mr.
Braham in the Cantata, " Alexis," Obligato Violon-
cello (Lindley), was rapturously applauded.
The concert was over about eleven o'clock ; and
the day's entertainments concluded with a Ball in
the large wpm of the Shire Hall.
