TATTEnSALL'S.
The betting men have not yet sufficieady recovered from ti
Derby and Oaks to turn their attention with any effect to spect.la
tion on other events, indeed the settling on those races are far fion
being concluded, although it " prognoses" with every prospect 0
a speedy termination. l'riam is in general demand for the St. 1., .
ger, and will turn out a very profitable horse to those who ha).
backed him at 25 and 30 to 1, and there are two or three who 144
him on their books at these figures. The Brunswiekers will n,.;
allow their nag to go out of the betting, notwithstanding the un.
compromising nature of his sunning for the Derby ; the " awe I.
tion" is not yet dissolved, several staunch men and good being t'aU.
merated in the list of his supporters. Raby has a strong party,
but respecting this horse and Priam a curious question arises as t.)
who will ride them, something similar to that which wag starlet
respecting Priam and Sheidrake for the Derby, and of much gr,•.‘:,l
importance. S. Chifney is bound by his engagement to side fur
Lord Cleveland, and in the performance of it must do his be.;
beat Priam, of which he is part proprietor. We presume tl.l.
some other engagement will be made before the day. Them xal
nothing done on the Ascot cup, as the field is expected to be eery
limited, and great uncertainty prevails as to which of the King'.
lot will run. The Liverpool Cups are likely to be good betting
races, from the unususl number and character of the horses en.
gaged. Voltaire and Rowton are talked of at evens fur the
Grand Cup, but no bet is made. The following is the 5,....
the odds :

3 to 1 agst Mr. Chifney's Priam (taken freely)
10 to 1 Lord Cleveland's Relay
12 to 1 Mr. Clifton's Moss Rose

EXTRAORDINARY OUTRAGE AT ST. JAMES'S PALAU..
Yesterday morning the inmates of St. James's Palace were threu •
into a state of the greatest alarm, in consequence of the extraorJ
nary conduct of an Individual who had forcibly entered the Palac„
and fastened himself in one of the apartthents belonging to a gentk.
man resident in the Palace. A messenger was immediately
patched to this office, from the Master of his Majesty's Household,
requesting the aid of the police, to take the intruder into custody,
and the Magistrates instantly sent Hall, the officer, to the Palace,
who returned in about an hour with his prisoner, and he was plated
at the bar before Dlessrs. GREGOR'S and WHITE.
The prisoner, whose appearance was that of a gentleman's servara
out of livery, on being questioned, replied that his name WWI George
Rex, and that he was George the Fifth. No other an,v.•cr could tw
elicited from him.

Mrs. Isabella Hodgkins stated that she occupied apartments 171
St. James's Palace ; between twelve and one o'clock that aftemoo:
the prisoner rang violently at her door, and she answered it. eh!
asked him what he wanted, the prisoner replied, " Don't you know
me ;" she told him that she knew nothing about him, when he said
" I'll make you know me." Thinking his conduct very extmore!i.
nary she shut the door in his face. In a few seconds the door a.,
burst open with tremendous violence ; the doorpost was tom
down, and the prisoner walked past her and entered the apartirem•
of Mr. Martin, a gentleman in the Lord Chamberlain's Office. .c..!
the key being in the door he fastened himself in ; she inmied,att it
made the circumstance known, and the door was broken open ,E.LI !
was secured.

Mr. Richard Gilbert stated that he was tnastc. of his Maj,bll%
household at St. James's Palace, and on being informed of the t ‘.
traordinary conduct of the Individual, as detailed by the last a •:.
news, he procured assistance and got into Mr. Martin's apartment..
He found the prisoner with nothing on but his shirt ; the whole ,4
the drawers in the room stripped of the wearing apparel, and the pr..
loner dressing himself in Mr. Martin's clothes. lie imtredi.ttely
secured him and sent for an officer.

Hall, the officer, deposed going to the palace to apprehend tl
prisoner. He found a door and doorpost broken down, leading to
one of the round towers, which he understood had been done by tilt
prisoner. On searching his person he found a purse, containing
sovereign, a half sovereign, and a gold ring.
Mr. Gannon= (to the priconer)--Do you choose to tell us you-
name ?

Prisoner.—.l have told you before.
Mr. GRZGOUIE.—What have you to say to the charge aga:n4;
you ?
Prisoner.—l don't know what I have got to say; now you 113%.
got me here, you must do whatever you please with' me.
Mr. GREGORIE.—Have you any friends in London ?
Prisoner.—l don't know, I'm sure.
Mr. GREOORIE.—What was the reason of your going to St.
James' Palace, and acting in the manner you did ?
Prisoner.--Why, I thought I had a right to go, they could n,t
save me worse than they have done, and you may now do with niL
as you please. In answer to further questions, the prisoner replied.
he had only drunk one third of a pot of porter that morning, he NA
not tasted a drop of spirits.
The Magistrates, after consulting together, ordered the prisoneT
to be committed to Tothill.fields prison, in default of bail, and a
message was SOft to the surgeon of the prison, to examine him at
to his sanity.

Yesterday morning at four o'clock, as a police con-
stable of letter Al division, was walking along Kent-
street, he observed a man lying on the step of a door, ap-
parently in a dying condition, and on examining his
' pocket, a phial was found containing the dregs of semi
laudanum. The policeman having procured another man
belonging to the same division, they conveyed the sick
man to his residence in that street, and medical assist-
ance having been procured, it was at once discovered that
his illness proceeded from taking laudanum. The sto-
mach-pump was resorted to, but without effect, owing to
the length of time that had elapsed from the period the
unfortunate man took the poison until the operation was
performed, and he expired soon afterwards. From in-
quiries subsequently made, it was ascertained that the
deceased had purchased five pennyworth of laudanum at
the shop of Messrs. Bowling and Walker, the chyniists,
in Kent-street, the same afternoon, and he was served
with the drug owing to his having described that it AVl*•
required for medicinal purposes.
