Of the Meeting just concluded too much cannot be said
in praise; it has been remarkable for the number of the
races, their excellence, and the spirit with which it was
carried on by all parties. Since 1822, when Mr. Clarke
succeeded kis father as Judge, the Houghton Meeting has
progressively improved ; that year it produced 23 races,
and the same number in 1824-26 in 1825, and 35 in
1826 (forfeit matches, &e. not counted.) In the past
Meeting 50 matches, &c. were made, of which 37 were
run, one of them being a dead heat; the matches alone
amounted .to 36,. and were to-the-value of between 6,000/.
and 7,000/.
,In the deciding of these and a vast number
of other and more important races (many of which have
been exceedingly difficult to adjudge) there has been more
than ordinary talent exercised, and it must be gratifying
to Mr. Clarke to know, that his impartial conduct on all,
occasions has received the approbation of the highest Mem-
bers of the Turf.

A match has been made for the Spring Meeting next
year, which is likely to create more interest in the Sport-
ing World than any other since' the famous one between
Mr. Houldsworth's Filho da Puta and Mr. Neville's Sir
Joshua. It is between the Hon. E. Petre's Matilda (the
winner of the St. Leger) and Col. Udny's f. by Partisan,
to run for 500 guineas each.

TUE GOLD Cur.—lt will be recollected that this Cup
was challenged for in the Spring by Mr. Wyndham with
a seated up nomination ; his being the only challenge, ac•
cording to the conditions, Lord Grosvenor (in whose fa-
mily the Cup has been for upwards of 40 years) was either
to run a match against the Challenger for 200 guineas
over the Beacon Course, on Tuesday, in the first October
Meeting following, or resign the Cup. His Lordship de-
clined the challenge, and having given up the Cup, it was
this week delivered by the Steward, Lord Lowther, to
Mr. Wyndham. Mr. Wyndham challenged with the terror
of Newmarket, Chateau Margaux.

A SHORT CRUISE !—The following is a
literal copy of a bill produced to a Jack Tar, paid off within
this week or two past, in this port, by a landlord of a
public-house, at Devonport. The sailor, strolled into the
house of mine host, early on the morning following the day
in which he had been paid off. Jack's coppers were of
course dry, and he sung out most lustily for a pot of beer ;
this was brought him, and liking his quarters he remained
in the house till the following morning about ten o'clock,
when his reckoning was called for, and the various under_
mentioned items were produced in his account. Jack net
over and above sobtr, examined the bill, turning his quid
in his jaw, and every now and then swearing it was all
right; he paid the bill, and then declared the landlord
should have a parting glass for good luck : thia ceremony
was gone through, and Jack and his lass staggered off to
have a ride to Plymouth, to enjoy himself there.

REPRESENTATION OF THE COUNTY.

(From the Cork Southern .Reporter. )
The Hon. Mr. John Boyle is at Castlemar-
tyr, the seat of the Earl of Shannon. His can-
vass has not been ostentatious, neither has it
been inactive, but as yet it has been confined to
that part of the county where he sojourns. We
believe we may say it has been hitherto unvary-
ingly successful,' which may be attributed in a
great degree to the unreserved and unequivocal
manner in which he avows his sentiments on the
question of Catholic Emancipation. The Earl
of Cork, his noble father, has always voted, he
says, in favour of that great national measure,
and he is proud to have his own conviction of
what is right fortified by such an example. Such,
we hear, are the declarations of the candidate,
and as they are the confirmation of what we long
since stated would be his course, we record them
with additional satisfaction. One instance in
which Mr. Boyle took an opportunity of avowing
his opinions on Emancipation, is communicated
to us on authority that we can rely on, and we
give currency to the particulars with inexpressible
satisfaction, as it enables us to announce a con-
vert to the expediency and justice of conceding
that measure of. conciliation and sound policy.
A gentleman of high rank in the county—
one who is not a very prominent politician, but
who would be well entitled to assume to be so,
waited on the Hon. Mr. Boyle, and asked him
what were his opinions, and what would be, in
the event of his being returned, his votes on
the Catholic Question. The answer to both
queries were direct—that he was favourable to,
and would'suppOrt it. The gentleman to whom
we allude expressed his satisfaction at these an-
swers, as'they enabled him to give him his sup-
port, whereas, had they been of another charac-
ter,eNue i do

which make his accession to a good cause a
greater triumph than if half a score ordinary in.,
dividuals had been won to it.

Mr. Boyle is expected in town this day or to-
morrow, at the house of Daniel Leahy, . Esc,
/ on
the South Terrace. We understand he will pro-
ceed immediately in the neighbourhood of Mal-
low and Doneraile.
