IN EWA! AIZEET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING.
NEW:IIA aa ET, MONDAY Ni GUT. —The two matches
left und,i,l.ll when our actlituit was sent from the Race-
murse this afternoon c !me off thus :
MAteh, °ZOO sues. A. F.
Mr. 11-berts's bichet, Sst 4.th
Duke of Richmmurs 11tigli Bolin, Bst. Blb 2
The betting on this race was more than usually interest-
ing at the commencement. The horse (why, we are at a
loss to conjecture) was the favourite at 5 and 6 to 4, but
before starting the odds gradurlly lessened, till at last it
became even betting, the mare appearing to have a very
slight call. She made running at a good pace all the way,
and was never in any danger till about half a distance front
home, when Boyce set to work, punishing his horse with
great severity, and if whipping are spurring had been suf-
ficient he would certainly have won : Buckle, however,
was quiet on his mare, and won rather cleverly by half a
length. There was some manwuvering for the whip-hand,
which the old-un gained, Boyce being forced to use his left
hand in whipping the horse.
Match, 800 sovs. h. ft. D. I.
Lord Sefton's Morris Dancer, Bst. 7lb 1
Mr. Greville's Lady Emily, Sst. 7lb 2
Betting 11 to Bon Morris Dancer. The filly made the
running till a few lengths of the judge's chair, when Morris
Dancer let loose, and won cleverly by a length. A diffe-
rent result could hardly have been expected, Morris Dancer
coming to the post quite fresh and vigorous as one of the
active class from which his cognomen is derived, while
Lady Emily has latterly been keeping had company, the
natural consequence being that her character is gone, and
her friends have turned their backs upon her. Robinson
rode Morris Dancer, and Arnull the filly.
The Garden Stakes turned out one of the worst races ever
seen, and like the same stakes last year (when Rough
Robin won it), was carried off by a bad horse, solely from
the weight to be carried being so trifling. As it was not
known till this morning whether Zinganee would start, the
betting was not by any means brisk till then; when, how-
ever, it was ascertained that he had taken a sweat, and
would not run, it got pretty brisk, Coroner being the fa-
vourite ; Luss, with several friends, at 5 to 2 and 3 to 1.
On the course Mameluke's friends rallied round him, and
before the close he was the favourite, Luss having improved
a shade and Coroner retrograded. The last odds were-6
to 4 against Mameluke, and 2 to 1 against each of the other
two, the filly for choice. Matneluke never came to the
post in better humour ; he went off without evincing any
of that viciousness so commonly attributed to him. Coroner
took the lead at a capital pace, and kept it up with consi-
derable spirit to the new ground, where it was obvious
enough how the race would terminate. Mameluke was
already beat by the immense weight on his back, and the
great pace they had been going; and here also Coroner
began to flag. The Luss filly immediately took up the
running, went right away, and won in a canter by six
lengths ; rode by Pavis (who was declared to ride 64. 101 b.
instead of 6st. 71b.), Coroner by Wakefield, and Mameluke
by Robinson, who pulled up some distance from home.
The weather was favourable.
Betting.—Clearwell Stakes.-5 to 2 agst Advance, 7to

COVENT-GARDEN SUBSCRIPTION.—Lord
NORMANDY has enclosed, in a letter from Florence, to Mr.
RomNs, a donation of 25/. ; the substance alike reflects
great credit on his liberality and proverbial taste for the
drama; it concludes thus :—" The destruction of the
theatre would not merely be a severe calamity, but I should
account it a disgrace to the national taste: for myself I
should regret it, from feelings of personal regard to many
of the parties connected, and the warm interest I shall
always entertain for the prosperity of the drama." We
are delighted to see the Duke of BEDFORD has generously
added 1000/. to the fund ; and following this laudable ex-
ample, we find the Duke of MorraosE, 100/. ; S. MURE,
Esq. 50/. ; Lord Figs, 50/. ; Colonel BERKELEY, 1001. ;
Lord EGREMONT, 100/. ; Lord I.ONCDALE, 50/. ; THOS.
WENTWORTH BEAU3IONT, Esq. 100 guineas ; A true
friend to the Drama, 50/. ; Sir COUTTS TROTTER, Bart.
20 guineas ; with a great number of other contributions
from 20 guineas downwards. This is as it should be.
The public have most cheerfully obeyed the call that has
been made upon them to relieve the performers from the
severe visitation with which they were threatened—itnow
only remains for the proprietors of the private boxes to
lend their ready assistance, and no doubt can then be en-
tertained the Theatre may progress through the season
successfully. The receipt from the King's Theatre added
6961. 12s. to the fund--a circumstance without any
parallel except on the night given by Covent-Garden
Theatre ru aid of poor EMERY'S family.

CONVICTS ORDERED FOR EXECUTION,

The following is a brief account of the offences
of which the unhappy persons were conv'cted who
are to suffer the extreme penalty of the law on Mon-
day next :

Richard Chick was convicted of a burglary in
the house of Mr. Wilson, a mercer, in Sun-street,
Bishopsgate. The convict was indicted with Mary,
his wife, and Charles William Elliott and his wife;
but the three latter were acquitted. It appeared
from the evidence, that about one o'clock in the
morning of the 13th of July the prosecutor was
alarmed, and on going down stairs discovered that
an aperture had been made in the wall between his
and the adjoining house, through which some per-
sons had entered and stolen property to the amount
of 400/. In consequence of some information he
received, he went to the house of Chick, in Beth-
nal-green, four days after the robbery, where, on
a search being made, a considerable part of the
stolen property was found. The watchman swore
that on the morning of the robbery he saw Chick
bring some Janie bundles from the house through
the party-wall of which access had been obtained to
the prosecutor's premises, and after placing them in
a light cart, drive off. It was also proved that the
adjoining house had been hired by a person who
absconded immediately after the burglary. The
only evidence against Elliott and his wife was, that
a small part of the stolen property was found in
their apartments. The Recorder passed sentence
of death upon Chick immediately after his convic-
tion, at the same time telling him that his offence
was one of so aggravated a nature that he could not
hold out to him any hopes of mercy. The convict
heard the sentence with the most perfect indif-
ference.

Josiah Nathan, alias Joseph Latham, alias Josiah
Jones, aged 27, was convicted of a burglary is the
dwelling-house of Mr. Newton, at Mile•end Old-
town. James Browne, alias King, who was con-
victed of the same offence at the last July Sessions,
was executed on the 21th of August. Previous to
his execution he confessed that Nathan and himself
had been concerned in upwards of 80 burglaries and
robberies, and among others that committed at the
house of Mr. Newton. In consequence of this in-
formation Nathan was apprehended, and on the trial
the substance of the evidence adduced against him
was as follows :—The prosecutor's house was broken
open about one o'clock in the morning of the 23d of
April, and a considerable quantity of property stolen.
The thieves killed the yard-dog previous to break-
ing into the house ; they left behind them, among
other articles, a hairy cap, which was proved to be-
long to Nathan, by persons who had seen him wear
it. A watchman swore that he saw him coming in
a direction from the prosecutor's house on the morn-
ing of the robbery. He had but recently: returned
from transportation at the time he committed the
offence for which he is doomed to suffer.

Richard Gifford pleaded guilty to an indictment
charging him with having personated ;one William
Green, and thereby obtained 1251. Three per Cent.
Consols that stood in the name of the said William
Green on the books of the Bank of England.
There was another charge against him, for per-
sonating Richard Mann, and obtaining 271., the di-
vidend due on certain stock standing in his name.
The facts of the case are as follows :

On the 6th of March last the prisoner applied to
Mr. Linton, a stock-broker, in Shorter's-court, re-
presenting himself as William Green, and requesting
he would sell out 1251. stock that stood in his name.
The broker declined selling out the stock, on the
ground that he did not know the prisoner; upon
which the latter said, " Why your father knows me
well, and has frequently seen me at the National
Debt-office." The broker's father was sent for,
who stated that he had some knowledge of the pri-
soner, but could not recollect where he had seen him.
The broker was satisfied, and made out the neces-
sary documents for the transfer, which having been
completed, he handed over to the prisoner a cheque
for the amount. The prisoner gave a receipt for
the stock, and on comparing that with the one given
for the last halflear s dividend, the hand-writing
was found to correspond exactly. In the second
case, when the prisoner attempted a similar trick,
the broker to whom he applied asked for a reference,
upon which lie named Mr. Linton, who happened to
be in the Rotunda at the moment, and on being ap-
pealed to, at once recognised the prisoner as the
person who had imposed on him in a similar manner
before. An officer was consequently sent for, and
he was given into custody. His friends are making
every exertion to procure a commutation of his
sentence.

GRAND REVIEW AND SHAM FIGHT AT

WOOLWICH.

Yesterday the whole of the Royal Artillery sta-
tioned at Woolwich, consisting of two battalions of
Infantry, and several troops of Horse Artillery,
with their field-pieces, were reviewed on the Com-
mon by Lord Edward Fitzroy, Lieutenant Master-
General of the Ordnance.

About half-past ten o'clock his Lordship, accom-
panied by a number of distinguished officers, came
upon the ground, and was received with the usual
ceremonies, the troops being in line, with their
front towards the barracks, and flanked on their
right and left by the Horse Artillery, forming a most
interesting appearance.
His Lordship and suite, having rode up and down
the line, then took their station on the right, when
the whole, having passed them in review order,
changed their front, and the principal part of the
horse separated from the main body, and took up a
position under cover of the Academy, from whence
they opened a brisk fire from their field-pieces on the
infantry, which the latter returned by several dis-
charges, both from the field-pieces and musketry,
and then, forming into close columns, advanced, and
drove the supposed enemy from their entrenchment
further into the Common, where the horse several
times halted, and renewed their fire on the infantry
from three different points, the infantry. continuing
the pursuit, during which they performed several
manoeuvres, forming in line, and firing by com-
panies, also forming in squares, and opening a fire
of musketry to resist the charge of cavalry, &c.,
which, with the discharge of so many field-pieces,
caused some confusion among the equipages on the
ground; and the grotesque appearance of the spec-
tators, who were flying in all directions to get out
of the way, was highly amusing to those who
were in safety.
About one o'clock the firing ceased, and the whole
of the troops, having been again formed into line,
saluted the General, who expressed his approbation
of their high state of discipline; after which the
troops marched off to their respective barracks.
Not the slightest accident occurred during the
whole of the time.

On Friday, when the Artillery were practising
the evolutions for the Review of yesterday, one of
them was severely injured, but he is in a fair way
of recovery. On Saturday another of them, sta-
tioned to ram home the powder, mistaking, it is sup.
posed, the flash of the adjoining piece for that of his
own, began to sponge his gun just at the moment
when the match was applied, to it, and consequently
received the whole of its contents, which mutilated
and disfigured him in a shocking manner—one of his
eyes was blown completely out of its socket, and one
of his arms shattered in a dreadful manner. He was
taken to the hospital, where the arm was amputated,
and every assistance rendered him, and we under-
stand some hopes are now entertained of his ultimate
recovery.

It is said to be under the consideration of the
new Commissioners of the Police to raise the salaries of
the officers, their present pay of one guinea per week,
after the deductions for clothing are made, not being con-
sidered sufficient.

THE OLYMPIC THEATRE.---It is said that

this Theatre is likely to be converted into barracks for the
New Police, the Commissioners having been for some
days past in treaty for its purchase. Should the negotia-
tion for the purchase of the Theatre prove successful, it
will form the head-quarters of the New Police force.
