ZIVAL JOCKEYS.—A celebrated
facetiously expressed his opinion of the comparative
these "first-rate performers" over a course:—" As
ohinson, his talent is not to be questioned ; he will
igh a church-door, however awkward and refrac-
nimal may be on which he is mounted ; but, as to
fney, only let him get tight hold of the horse's head,
rush slap through the key-hole."—Whyte's His-
.

tory of the Turf

—The light horseman
ho lays himself out to become a useful member of his pro-
ssion is sure to succeed. He will first of all devote himself
his horse ; and then his horse, as if grateful for the kind-
!ss shown, will do for him in return innumerable services.

through broken and dangerou s ground. the horse will often
'efuse to obey either spur or rein ; his superior instinct di-
eting him to avoid the perils into which the ignorance or

the horse knows his master's voice—it eats oat of his

"LE VALUED WHEN UNCERTAIN.—In countries
notically, life is not so much valued as it is in
wry knowledge that it may be taken in a reo-
ill of the rulers, renders even the cowardly

to anticipate an event, when it actually ar-
with composure and indifference. The lad
a brought up to thieving, and who is conti-
by his parents that he must be hung before

the heads of their companions roll on the
arnaise, how soon their own turn will come. I
one evidence of this at Burmah. In one in-
led to obtain information from a prisoner, but
ract any. He had been sitting between the car-
seek for 24 hours, and some of the men or offi-
en him a bowl of grog and a couple of cigars,
he was busy when I interrogated him. As he
gnorance,l told him that if he would not give me
I information, I should take his head off, and sent
•gearit of marines, who appeared with two of his
1 a drawn sword. We called him out from between
; but he begged, through the interpreter, to be al-
finish his grog—to which I consented. When that
he was again ordered out ; but requested leave to
a)ut an inch of cigar, which remained in his mouth—
a I also acceded, not being in a particular hurry to
which I never intended to do. During all this the
vas perfectly composed, and did not show the least
at his approaching fate. As soon as the cigar was
.ed, he bound his long hair up afresh, and made prepa-
,n. I again asked him if he would tell; but he pleaded
rance, and stepped forward, went down on his knees,
took off the cloth from about his loins, which he spread
the deck to receive his head, and then putting his hands
the deck, held it in the position to be cut off. Not a
muscle trembled, for I watched the man carefully. lie was,
of course, remanded, and the sailors were so pleased with
him, that he went on shore with more grog and more to-
bacco than he had probably ever seen in his Etc.—Captain
Earryatt.

qATs OP THE MONEY MARKET

rLTESDAy EVENING

—The general teneur of the intelli-
gence in the overland mail received to-day by extraordinary
express in the Herald from India and China, as well as that
from Alexandria, combined with the favourable issue, in a
large majority, on the debates in the French Chamber of
Deputies involving in reality the question of peace or war,
altogether contributed to impart an upward impulse to
stocks. Consols advanced to Sn to -.2- for the opening.
Bank Stock was 1561 to 74. Exchequer Bills 2s to 4s.
