He concluded by noticing the improved cha-

Captain Greig addressed the chairman, briefly thank-
ing him in the name of the force, and expressing their
unanimous wish for his continuance in office.
After the presentationswere made to the various parties,
which included most of the superior officers, and forty of
the constables, Mr. Superintendent Ride returned thanks
to Mr. Tobin fcr the interest which he had taken in the
force; and expressed his trust that these proceedings
would encourage them to still further exertions for the

future.
Mr. Tobin expressed himself grateful for the kind and
;endly feeling manifested towards himself individually,
towards the committee. The latter could do
nothing without the co-operation of the officers ; and he
was sure, with Captain Greig at its head, that the police-
force would soon become one of the best in the kingdom.
This closed the proceedings, and the police having been
inspected by the committee, were soon afterwards marched
away in divisions.

With the exception of the investments made upon the
Brighton events that have been decided during the week,
the betting here has been remarkable only for its dulness,
—a state of things that might have reasonably been ex-
pected during the week following such a glorious meeting
as Goodwood has been this year, although a very unpro-
fitable one for the layers of the odds ; consequently, our
quotations as given below, though rather lengthy, are
made up from offers and bets laid to small sums. It will,
however, be seen that a few outsiders for the St. Leger
have been touched upon, and one or two for the Ebor
Elandicap have been introduced since our last, who now
figure prominently in the betting. To-day there was a
strong feeling in favour of Songstress for the St. Leger,
all the three's to one being taken with avidity, and 5 to 2
being the highest offer at the clove. There were several
inquiries about Sackbut for the Ebor Handicap, but his
price did not transpire.

MR. JOSEPH WINTERBOTTOM, a manufacturer of Hud-

to York assizes, for having on the 26th ultimo, at Hud-
dersfield, feloniously removed three skips of cops and
bobbins, and twenty bundles of cotton yarn, the property
of Mr. Isaac Simpson, warehouseman and cotton-spinner,
of Manchester and Preston. The property was removed
from Winterbottom's own premises, which, however,
were in possession of Mr. Simpson, who held a deed em-
powering him to seize it.
