SAFFRON HILL)

A Correspondent has just called in at our Office, to
assure us that he heard two cabmen say to each ie;
while standing at the door of the Cocoa-nut and Nine-
pins in Saffron-hill, that in their opinion the " Earth-
-wake was no go." This fact may be relied on.
(FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT.)

Two condemned houses have just tumbled down
half-past two o'clock) in St. Giles's. The inhabi-

tants tm the other side the street, fearing that this is
the "beginning of the end," are now hurrying out
in breathless haste; and six of them have just
wrapped up their joint property in a cotton pocket-
handkerchief, and rushed down Oxford-street, with
several policemen at their heels, and a crowd of little
boys bawling out "Stop thief !" In Dyot-street a
mob of Irishmen are busy engaged in "pitching
into" each other, by way of making the most of what
little time is left them. They say that, as it is their
last skrimmage, they will have it fairly out.

(HALF-PAST THREE O'CLOCK.)
We stop the Press for the express purpose of saying
that we have nothing to say !

and, beyond the advance of Auckland to 16 to 1, consequent
tat the Warwick running, and I few inquiries after the Lord
of Ilolderness, presented nothing worth dwelling on. The
odds quoted against the other horses mentioned will be found
to agree very nearly with those reported at the commence-
ment of the week.
