Match, 100, Ab. M.—Mr. Payne's Merman apt Lord Exeter's
Augusta filly, 85t. Slb. each.
The Whip was not challenged for yesterday, so that Mr. Gully
is likely to bold it for some time. The value of the Whip is per-
haps about seven shillings ; it is made like a regular jockey's whip,
except that the handle is silver, with the arms of the blaster of
the Horse to Charles the Second. At one time it had some of the
hairs of Eclipse as a lash, bat at this time it is so dilapidated,
being broken in the centre ; and to get possession of this valuable
relic It is necessary to run a valuable horse four miles and stake
200 sous.

year has occasioned the following changes :
7 to 1 agst Sir Sir Mark Wood's The Mummer
12 to 1 --- Mr. Peter's Brunswicker

CORONERS INQUESTS.

Yesterday evening an inquisition was taken at the
Lighthorsrman Orange-court, Leicester-square, before Thomas
' Higgs Esq. Coroner, on the body of a female, unknown, who was
found drowned in the basin of the Green Park.—William Ashton,
one of the New Police-constables, No, 42, deposed that he was on
duty in the Green Park on Tuesday evening, about seven o'clock,
when be looked round the basin, but did not see any thing. About
nine o'clock, or a little after, he again went round the basin, and
then discovered the deceased lying near the edge of the water,
where it was about two or three feet deep. Witness called the
assistance of Mr. Ward, the keeper of the Lodge, and they then
pulled the unfortunate woman out of the water. She was quite
dead. Witness searched her person, but found nothing but an old
pocket-handkerchief. Mr. Ward despatched a person for Mr.
Howell, a medical gentleman in Half Moon-street, who attended,
and pronounced the deceased quite dead, and gave it as his opinion
that life could not have been extinct more than half an hour or so.
Witness did not see any marks of violence about her person.
By a Juror—l saw a female strolling about the Park when first
I came upon duty, which was about six o'clock, but I cannut
swear it was the deceased.
By the Coroner—There Is no rail or fence round the basin,
which is about nine feet deep. If persons fall in at night, they
could not extricate themselves without swimming.
There being no further evidence, the Jury returned a verdict of
" Found Drowned." .

DREADFUL ACCIDENT.—Yesterday an inquest was
held by W. L. Newman, Esq the City Coroner, pro knspore, at
St. Thomas's Hospital, to inquire touching the death of henry
Downs, aged 45, a mason and bricklayer. From the evidence, it
appeared that the deceased was descending a ladder, at a house in
Hatfield-street, Blackfriar's-road, when it suddenly broke, and
precipitated the deceased on the spikes of the area railing, by which
his thigh was dreadfully lacerated, and one of the spikes was left
broken therein. From the injuries he bad received he expired
on Saturday. The Jury returned a verdict of " Accidental
Death."
DEATH BV BURNING.—An inquisition was holden
on Wednesday last, at the Bell and Hare public-house, Tottenham,
before Mr. Unwin, on the body of George Smith, a child of three
years of age.—Thomas Heller. a cow-keeper, deposed that on
Saturday last, about eleven o'clock, while at work on his premises,
which adjoin that of the parents of the deceased, he heard a violent
screaming proceed from one of the apartments. He instantly pro-
ceeded thither, and on entering it found the deceased enveloped in
flames, and his grandfather, an aged nun, endeavouring to extin-
guish them. He, witness, instantly rolled him in the hearth-rug,
and put cut the fire, but the child was so severely burst at the
time, that, notwithstanding the immediate attendance of a surgeon,
hr died in about two hours afterwards. Witness believed the
affair to be quite accidental, and that the child, during the tempo-
rary apsence of its mother and aunt, got too close to the bre, and
set its clothes in flames.—Verdict, " Accidental Death."
Tuesday an Inquest was held in the House of Correc-
tion, Coldbath-fields, on' the body of Close Stein, a German. The
Governor :proved that deceased was committed from Worship-
street on the 21st August, to three moqths' hard labour, in default
of paying a fine of .f5O which had been imposed uponlim for hav-
ing a private still in his possession. Mr:Witefield, Serteun to
the Howe' or Correction, 'dated' that on Saturday morning deceased
