We regret that we have not the capacity of the mammoth contempormic* north ofua, that we might lay before our readers the interesting discussion which ensued on a motion to print tho Report sub. milted by Mr. Pickens on the 13th inst.to tho House. Mr. Granger, a member of the Committe on For. •ign Affairs (and the new Postmaster Genoral) con sidered it_as approaching vary neatly to a declara tion of war. if tho British Government should desire so to consider it, and said that the report did not receive his assent. He accused tho majority of 'travelling beyond the record, and of presenting a report nut pacilia in- its character and based upon complaints against the British Government, not one of which htid been re ferred to that Committee. From tho Globe's analysis wo extract the follow ing:— Messrs Fillmore, Adam*, ond Everett of Vermont, 'assumed similar positions, each depreciating in his turn Ihe awful, the horrible calamities of n war with Groat.Britain at this very inuuspiclous juncture.— They were for modifying tho report—for calming down its tone—for stripping it of it* offensive atti tude, nnd rendoring it more in conformity with the true spirit and feeling of the Ametican people. Mr.jPicken* replied. He repulsed the unjust ■impatutions cast upon the report. He dented its hostile character. Ho udmittrd that no one hero -had a desire to create a rupture, that, for himself, lie was for pence. A wor would be calamitous to the nation. He would go far to avoid its necessity. But for an open-insult—for a direct Degression— -fora positive vlelalion of international law—for the murder and plunder of our peuple by a foreign foe, he would not sooroh long to find an apology. Mr. "Pickens m*do a beautiful reference to our position as Independent freemen—to our disposition for ■peace—to our naturol forbeatance in lha redress of grievances, and in repulsing injury. But wvhad “been abused—injury had been done us—our peace if u | waters had been invaded, and our citizens butch cred. There was a point beyond which freemen, could never bn crowded; nnd iie"hoped and trusted that nothing disastrous would spring from the. c« limitous event to which tho report referred. That document he contended, boro no evidence of lioslili ty upon its face—let it bo prin'ed and read—let it go forth to the country. He had no fears of that, verdict which would com? frem a bravo, a cbival rons, a patriotic people. To that tribunal he was willing to refer the issue; nnd he trustod in God and his country.lor the result. This was a severe rebuke to thecavillers, ‘who had recently experienced so essential a revolution In thsir spirit of freedom and national prowess. Severn questions were taken upon tho report. No motion for amendment, however, prevailed! and after aome further discussion upon it* princi ples, it was ordered to be printed by a decided vote —yeas 103, nays 68. The House hod previously refused by a vote of' 100 to 73 to add to the printing of tho repoTl all the documents heretofore presontedto Congress on the subject. CASE OF L'A MIST AD. In the Senate on Friday last, a message was re ceived from the President of tho United States, trans milting copies of correspondence between the State Department and the representatives of foreign Ge. vernmrnts relative to the negroes taken on boaid L'Amistad, which has occurred since his message ofthe 21st March, 1840. From the correspondence we exirar't a letter of Mr. Fox, the Minister ofGreat B.ituin, end the re* ply thereto of Mr. Forsyth; and wetbink our read- cis will agree with us that they famish a striking exemplification of "the principle of non-interven tion, as regards the concerns of other nations," re ferred to in the Intelligencer of this morning. Washington Globe, 15/A inst. Mr. Fox to Mr. Forsyth. Washington, Jan. 20. Sir: I am instructed to represent to you that the a i.-ntion of her Majesty's Government has been *"i iously directed to the ease of certain African no fines, found on board ihe Spanish ship " Amillad," the same persons whoso canso has been btoughi be fore the court* of law of the United States, and for wham a powerful and humane interest appeals to be felt in this country as well as in England. It is known to hep Majesty’s Government that these negroes were imported into Cuba direct from tha coast of Africa, in a Portuguese slave vessel called tho Tenors, in the summer of 1839, and that, shortly after their arrival, they were purchased as slaves atthe Havana by two Spaniards of the names of Jose Ruixend Pedro Montes. Rulsand Montes then pieced the negroes oa board ibascbconer Amistad, intending to cenrey ihem to another port In Cube. It appears that during tba voyage, the negroas, with a view of recovering their liberty, seised possession ofthe vessel, put the master to death, and ordered the remaining whites to navigate the vessel to the coast of Africa. The whites, bow ever, directed their course towards North America, until they were fallen in with by tha United States briagofwar Washington, when tha Amistad was finally brought Into tha port of New London, In Coo nect lent. Thapraaaadiage which bnva taken plant subsequently to tha arrival of lha negoes ia ibn United States are sufficiently wall known to you. Now, bar Majesty's Government have lo observe that, sloe# the year 18JO, It baa broom# unlawful, •Mordiaf luihnlnvef Spain, to import near or* from Afrie# oa ileva* into tba Ijieoieh Dominions, and that, at ibt pi|mt bare refined 19 bad bean @1)t Vol. II—No. 51. SAVANNAH, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1841. newly Imported from Africa into Cuba, and could not by Uw be imported as slavrs. they must in tbe eye of the law ho considered as free persons. And Great Britain is also bound to remember that the law of 8psln which finally prohibited the slavo trade throughout the Spanish Dominions.fiom the dnte of the 80th of May, 1820, (the provisions nfwhieh law are contained in tho King of Spain's Royal Ceduln of tho lOih of December, 1817.) was passed in compliance with a treaty obligation to that effect, by which the crown of Spain had Hound itself tu the crown of Great Britain, and for w hich a valuablo compensation in return, was given by Great Britain to Spain,, as maybe seen by reference to the 2d, 3d and 4 th nrtlcle* o( a public treaty con eluded between Great Britain and Spain oa thn 23d of September, 1817. Her Majesty’s Government, therefore, are moved by special t»nd peculiar reasons lo take an interest in tho fate of those unfortunate Africans, who are known to hove been illegally end felonious ly reduced to slavery by subjects of Spnin. It i* next to be observed that Great Britain and the-United Ssate* have mutually engaged them* selves lo ettchorher, by tbe 10th Nrtlcle ofthe trea ty of Ghent, to usn their best endohVors for the en tire abolition of the African sieve Wide. And then- can be no doubt of the'firm intention of both-parties -religiou'ly to fulfil tho lei ms of (lint engagement. Now the unfortunate Africans whoso cose is the subject of tho present representation, havo been thrown by accidental circunistencos into the hands of the authorities of the United States; and it may probably depend upon the action of the United Stales Government, whether these persons shall recover the freedom to which they nrn'flritilled, or whether they shall bo reduced to slavery, in viola tion of known laws and contracts publicly passed, prohibiting the continuance of the African slavo trade by Spanish subjects. Itia under these circumstances thnt Her Mnjcs ty’s Government anxiously hope that the President ofthe United States will find himsrircmpowered to ttke such measures in bohalfof the aforesaid Afri cans as shall secure to them the possession of their liberty, to which, without doubt, they ere by law entitled. I avail rmself of tills occasion to renew to you the assurances of my distinguished consideration. H. S. FOX. The Hon. John Forsytii, &c. &c. Mr. Forsyth to Mr. Fox. Difartmickt dr State, Washington, February 1, 1841. Sir! I have the honor to acknowledge the re ceiptof yonr letter of the 20th ultimo, in which you state that you are instructed t,» represent tome that the attention of Tier Majesty’s Government hasbeen seriously directed to the case of (ho negroes of the Spanish ship "Amistad," /Milt thn anXidb* hope that tho President’hf the United States will fuel himself empowered to tnke such measures in their behalf as will secure to them tho possession'Oft heir liberty.- Viewing this communication as nn evidence of the benevolence of Her Majesty’s Government,— under which aspect alono it could he en'ertnined by the Government of the United Stntes,—I proceed by the direction of the President,- to make, in reply, a few observations suggested by the topics of youi loiter. Tho'narrative'presented therln, of the clr cumsianc.cs which brought these negroes to our shores, h satisfactory evidence that Hor Majesty's Govcrnmentis awaro that their introduction did nnt proceed from the wishes or directions of the •Government of the -United States. A formal de mand having been mnde by the Spanish Minister for the delivery ofthe vessel and property, includ ing the negroes on board, the grounds upon which it is based have becomo tho subject of invesligo lion before the judicial tribunals of the country, which have notyetprunounced their final decision thrrupon. You must be aware, sir, thst the Kxe cutive has neither thn po • nr nor the disposition to control the proceedings of thelegnl tribunals when acting within their apprupriatu jurisdiction. With reg.trd to the other considerations presented by you in behalf of the negroevof tho "Amistad," I hnve tn remark that it is n«t understood that the (acts upon which they are founded are udmittrd by the Minister of Her Cntholio Majesty; and this G <vern ment would, with great reluctance, erect itself into a tribunal to investigate such questions between two friendly sovereigns. If. howover, these facts are established, they cannot be without their force nnd effect in the proper lime nnd plnco. You have doubtless observed, from the corres pondence published in a Congressional document, that it is the intention of the Spnni-h Minister tore store these negroes, should their delivery to his Go vi-rnment bo ordered, to the Island of Cuba, whence tho vessel In which they wore found, soiled; where they will bo placed under the protec lion ol tho Government of Spain. It is there that questions arising under the Spanish law* and the treaties ofSpnin with Grcnt Britain,"mny bo appro pri-itely discussed and decided; nnd where a full op portunity will he presumed lo the Government of Her Majoaty the Queen of Grcnt Britain to appeal to the treaty stipulations applicable to tho subject of your letter. I avail myself of this occasion to renow to you the as.uranccs of my distinguished con«Mcintion. JOHN FORSYTH. Hknry Stepuen Fox, Esq, &c. &c. &c, SUPREME COURT OF THE U. STATES. Monday.

Thomns C Roe.khill was ended to the chair, and Richard D. Wood nppoined Secretoiy. Mr. Rtckhill explained tbe objects of the meet ing. Mr. George H. Martin, with some epprupriate remarks, offered the following resolutions: Whereas: There is now ponding before Congress, a hill for the establishment of a uniform system of bankruptcy, some of the previsions of which ate designed to havea rctiospective action,and whereas such an enactment would be os little in unison with the wishes of a vast majority of the nation os with the plainest principles ut'oquity. Thoteforo. Resolved, That this meeting respectfully protest against the passage ofany lawby which the obi ign ions of contracts heretofore voluntarily and legally mado between one citiken and another may badis solved, inasmuch as such a prevision being ox-post facto, and therefore essentially unjust; would boa signal violation of the moral sense of thecommunity, and fraught with the most dangerous result* to the public wellate.

It shall be published at an eatly day. MR. PICKENS’ REPORT. While tve cannot but regret tho want of unnnimi' 'ty displayed in the Home on th? motion to print the Report published in our last, we cannot shut our eyes to the fact that the violence or the opposi tion proceeded from hot-headed abolitionist*. We havo readied a fine poin», when the wiredrawn so phistries of «arA Statesmen ore to go forth to the world as indicative of American feelings. THE 22D OF FEBRUARY. Yesterday the spiriLstirring drum nnd the shrill notes of tho clarion, reminded us that the anniver sary of a day hallowed in our country’a nnnals, had, {n tho evolutions of Time, again dawmd upon us. The loud reverberations of Heaven's artillery before tho morning dawn, followed by the heavy ■hower* of rain, which our dusty stre.-ts thirsted fur, augured an InnuipIclouH day for the rltlten ml dier: but heavy ruins and muddy foot-paths could not dampen the ardor of our spirited volunteer corps. A day sacred to the votaries of Liberty, they hail od its rectirranco with the ardor nf enthusiastic de votees, and the well filled ranks of the cusps evin ced 'tliht undying flume nover to he quenched as long as a spark of tho patriotism of'76 shine* bright ly frdfn the temple of American Liberty. Tho binh-day c/f Washington—of him, "first in war, fit si In peace, nnd first in the hearts of his countrymen," the citizen s6ldi«*r of 1841, glowed with t'lio spirit of the citizen soldier of *76 and 81, and all, animated by n patriotic feeling, gathered around lha altar of their common country,to relume tho vestal flame of American Liberty, but another namo for the liberty of the oppressed throughout the world. At the invitation ofthe Georgia Hussars, Capt. Behn, whom wo congratulate on their military ap pearance end increase oT numbers, tho Chatham Artillery, Capt. Stephens, tho Republican Dines, Capt. Anderson, and Savannah Volunteer Guards. Capt. Bowen, formed a line on the Bay, and under the command ofCol. J W. Jackson, escorted the orator aftho Hussars, W. D. Fleming, Esq. he Theatre, where the fair of Georgia in tho City of Oglethorpe, greeted them with their winning nnd exciting smile*. Thrir presence recalled the strains of thu Irish Bard— "Without the smile from partial beauty won, Oh what were man f A world without a sun." The orator with patriotic language alluded in his exordium to the rr.ilitury traits In tho chnracior of tho youthful hero, whose natal day the corps of which be is a member, celebiated as thrir anniver sary. Tha veteran in judgement, though youth in'mill* l ary renown, stood before us in bold relief when thn bloxidj field of Braddock was recalled tn our mental in, and in the practised mind of the warrior of that d?y we delighted lo seo pencilled the accumu lated glories which in subsequent fields clustered around the brow of tho American C'incinnatus. Mr. Fleming dwelt principally on tho necessity of encouragement to Volunteer Associations of a military clinractvr, and while he portrayrd their advantages to a nation whose extensive seaboard exposed it to foreignuggrrision, urged their pecu liar valuo to a people, whose Liberty is to he shield ed from encroachment by eternal vigilance. Hisallusinntothe Standard of the corps, en* trusted but on hour previous to their honor, as soldi ers, by the patriotism of the softer sex, was appro priate, and elicited well merited applause. After remarking that it is not to Legislative encouragement alone to Which Voluntcror Compa nies ore entitled, he appealed with the fervor of tbe soldier to the fair daughters of our country for their ■milos end approbation, and we trust thut their presence on a day so unfavorable was an indication uf the response tlrcy would havo given, could they have answered by wards such an appeal. We extract with pleasure the following: " My f'lir country women, the influence you exer 1 is the influence lhatcannot be resisted—the influence particularly felt by the soldier, that to which he it peculiarlyRliVe and sensitive. If there is one con sideration afier duty and patriotism which nerves his arm with greater strength, and gives more dead lines* to his blow, it is the reflection that when the haitlo is over, and its uproar and confusion hushed and stilled'in tho alienee of death, that when suc cess has attended his efforts and victory has perch ed npon tiie standard of bis country, he can return to his home, though that home be a tog-hut in.a wilderness, mre of being greeted and welcomed by tbe smiles and approbation of her whom he loves moat. And even in a time of profound peace any indication that we nro not unnoticed by the fair daughters of our country is held in tho highest esli motion. "Such evidence bis from lime to time been expe rienced by the different corps of our city. Such evidence, I am. hsppy to say. lias l>een furnished this day to tho Gkoroia Hussars. That flag (turning to the banner Ip the hands of Cornet Sle- vans) is the gift of those whose good opinion we prise above all price, whose smiles Wo consider the highest reward of the soldier. Thst banner, this morning for tbe first time, has been unfurled lo the kieexe—not a soldier in cur ranks whose pulse did not best high, whose heart was not moved when he beheld It. Proudly this day havo wo marched under its folds, and I know that 1 but express tbe common feeling of dt ell, when I say that we are ready, if need be, to die in itt defense. Where float* that standard we will rally, and If the fortune of war should over strike it to the earth, the spot where it (ails shall bo oar sit area gra< Hi* address to tho Hearers wasdittingeUbcd for manly frelln#, while his peroration woo method with the character of the soldier.

In doing so they would continue what they had been "not only the pri to of their friends, not only an honor to their city, but a living wall of defence tu thoircountry." When tho orator concluded, tha line was again formed, composed of the Hussars, Artillery,-and Infantry compnnics, and the Battalion relumed to the Bay, where after the usunl salute to thtoralor, the corps were dismissed tn their respective com* mnnders. They all fired salutes in honnr'pf the day, w bile tha cloud* poured their heavy contents upon them. \ The Guards, by invitation, visited the rctllcnce of thoir 1st Sergeant—John N. Lewis, Esqi and were entertained with a dinner, and all tba refresh ments which their wot jackets needed. Thn beau tiful musket won by private Mills, on the 8lhull. was presented by Capt Bowen, while on parade. Thu* glided away the 109th anniversary of the birth-ilny of Washington. Whole No. i03. PRESENT AVION Of BANNERS. A banner was yesterday presented by Mrs. Fra. sen, tbe lady of Sergeant Frattr ofthe corps, to tho Phanix Riflemen, Cupt. Seguf. It is wrought of- white satin, with a fringe of blue, and on one side is tho coat o arms of the State, while on the other side Ua Phoenix, rising from hsashes,and surmount ed by the muttb "Always ready." Underneath are the words PH(ENIX RIFLEMEN. Tho flay was presented by Mr*. Fraser, who pronounced tho address of presinislion. Capt.

Jackson ad dressed the corps in behalf of tho fair donors, and Capt. Behn, in behalf uf the corps, responded. We have been promised cupir* uf tha addresses for our next.

Mr. Brough, the vocalist, and hhs com. pany, have arrived here, and I loam thoy intend Vial, ling your city Ina few days, to entertain you with vocal conoerts. Those dull limes will make it agreeable. Wo noticed, tho other duy, in a little papsr from YrinkCo land, the most delicious picture of a Far mer's lifo imaginable. It made our hands water tn get hold of tho plough. For a moment we long ed to earn our bread by tho sweat of our brow, in stead of tho drying up of our brains. But reflec tion brought better thoughts, and recalled tu our mind the innumerable advantages we possess in a town, over our boasting friends in the country. We remember once henring a distinguished di vine, who, like many other distinguished men, was the son of a farther, assert, that farmors have more timo for reading lima any other class of mao. Be it so! We know thst if they have any lime at all, they havo more than us pour quill drivers. Be it so I we soy. Time for reading is om of tho small est elements of a hsppy lifo. The difficulty Is that residents in the countiy have too much time. They havo leisure; and from tho monotony of their occu pations, they would liko to have that leisure filled with something more exciting than bonks. Here is one great advantngo. You may meet in thecoun* try, agrceulde and well informed mnn—but though every man were such, the pleasures of society could not be enjoyed in their perfection. •'The worst peace*’’ any* somebody or other, "is preferable to tho best war." The worst town, we are inclined to think, is better than tha best country neighborhood; c-rllod neighborhood, ullkcUs a non luccndo, because you have no neighbors. In thecityhow different is every thing! If you want society, yatt are not for cod to vide ten miles to find your friend vvflndable, and break your neck in the crassest possible roads, and over bridges, very much abridged indeed-, but you take your hat» and in five minutes you ore in pleasant society. If one friend is not al home, another is. Orif you prefer soliiude, have leiD-ra rewrite, ora fit of study comes over you, youcan.be alone, nnd secure from interruption. Whereas, In the countiy, lo re fuse to see a men who had ridden half n dny to visit you, would be an unpardonable in-ult. A man's time is never his own, in thu country. He ,ha* luisftru enough,.but he can nover be certain o^ it whon he wants it. We would not have it supposed, that we are In* sensible to thn natural elinimt of rural life. We can ourselves babble uf gicen fields, with the best of them. Nny, we onr.o went * • fur as to write some verses on the subject, which as they smell con siderably more uf oil thun < f new mown hay, we havo never ventured to lay before an admiring wotld. But vtt are, ourselves, uf tho mind of Crabbe,a man who loved his fellows, end took ■ view of human nature that was nowise crabbed, when he said, "I would rmher stand fur on hour at lha corner of a etioc'l, and watch meo's countenan ce* aa they floated hy, than gate on tbe finest land scape in England." * (Correspondence of the Savannah Georgian.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 17. There was a sound uf revelry” last night, at Gadsby's new Log Cabin Ba'I Room, Where • soi ree was given in honor of the birth day of Gen- Harrison. Your humble servant was one of tha few Loco Fuco lookers on, in order to get a close view of old Tip, who visited the assembly at lo o' clock, and remained about two hours. He appear ed to rnjoy hirmelf very much, as there were many bright eyes and smiling faces in the crowd, which consisted of several handred person*. The Geor. gia delegation of the Whig sort were there, and 1 observed some of them figuring on th* light fan lastio toe several times daring tho evening. Geo- Gaines and his Udy. and most 6f tbe Foreign Min* ister* were also among th/ spectators. Mrs, Gsines was quite a belle in the room, and danced until supper lima. Tbe tickets were five dollars. Gen. Harrison left for Virginia this morning, ac companied by his Comraitlrr. The talk about Mr. Sergeant's going to England still runtlnuas, although Col.

He looks remarkably well and will doubtless be able to srttftd thn fatigue at- tandan't tipon tbo twelve days of the present session which have to elapse. The Senate tmday have passed the House bill, granting to the Slate of Tennessee tho privilege of disposing of certain public lends within her bor der*. A petition was recwivrd from New York praying the intervention of the United States in re* gird to certain American citizens who wete en gaged in tho Canadian Rebellion, and whu were transported hy Her Majesty's govertimsnt to Van Dirmnn'a land. Tho petition led lo some debate, but was finally laid on tho table. The Senate then went Into Executive debate, and it U rumored that some Message was recelvod from the President, en closing more correspondence which has occurred between the Secretary ofState and H. B. Majesty's Minister, in regard to (he North Eastern Boundary. The Civil and Dlplnmatlo Appropriation bill I* still dragging on in the-House; the Item under dis* cusiton now being a motion of Mr. Green, of Ken tucky, to strike out the appropriations for tho brandh (hints at Dshlonega and other places.— Messrs. Habershafh otiJ Cooper both addressed lha House against the motion for a short time; and Mesdrr. Bynum, Tillinghast and other* occupied the rest of tho morning In debating tho Tariff, Bank aud other irralevant'qurstiona. Tha speech of Mr. Bynum was a triumphant answer to the charges of the Federal Whig orators about tho ex travagance of the preiunt Administration, &c. He showed conclusively, to any reasonable mind, that there was no necessity ol an extra session, and that tha revenue uf the government was fully suf- •ficiont to meet all the necessary expenditures for the year.

Yesterday wu# alio a plaasant day, v*Uh \he eX ueptiun of a high wind, which kept the dust in mu lion, and making it nocosinry tu devote some at tention to the eye* by those who desired to nee ©leer.

Kate Converse, 3 years old,by imported Non Plus, dam Daisy. There was much interest felt in tins race, and bets wore mado in Various ways,and nt various odds. Mary Elizabeth was decidedly thu fuvorito for tHe purse, and Kale Converse for the first heat. The other iwo ware ip no great favor, although it was known that tin y were capable of making tho favor ites work, ond in case of their failure, would affoi d good sport themselves. On pooling, Kutn was ut once the observed of nil observers. Bite appeared timid and abashed ut tho admiration she excited, trembling in every limb,and anxious to escape from the rudngnzo of the specta tors. Mor, Elisabeth was, as usual, quietly p»rum (minting tho space in front of the stand, ns if unin tnrrstrd in whsl'wns going i.n, or conscious thut she cuald manage things in her own way, when lha time of trial arrived. Satlkahatchie behaved as m<.ti uni inoUdo under similar circumstnncos,ond TnpKnul a musi-d himself hy drugging hi* groom tu and fru, pro brthly fur tbe entcriuinmoni of his fuircompe'iior*. At one o'clock tho work commenced. Tup Knot had thu track, and took ■ ho lend from thn jump, Mary following him clouely, and at Nfairapoed. Kutn kept within calling distance, in ense thu gentlu man should shako off his partner, and require the assistance uf another lo keep him up to time. They mnde the first mile id this order—iho Verminous filly trailing at hor ease. Immrdiotoly onenteiing the aecond miln, the race became ono uf exciting in ten-st. The red jacket of the rider of Kate began to move with cornel liko velocity, and it was perreivep by some that had just dua tried tho dust out of their eyes thzt the boy was still in tha jacket, und cnnfi denlly asserted by others that Kale was still under him. Mary was passed like a shot, Top Knot astonished at a sudden ru-h of air al-ing ante, and in an instant the antelope Kate had the track and was very quietly drumming away with her slender >!ns at a tale that it would have taken a fast quarter iorse id emulate. Top Knot, was now " no gu" for the hear, and tha yellow jacket of Mary’a r-dcr was under way at a rate of speed porhaps a leetle quicker than it had been for many months before— it was a Arad cAass, which is said to be alongchu r, for some distance, nnd the hast was generally oc curded to Kate. " Sbo's got it"—" site's got it." crys out scores ofjnckies; "yes, she's got it," res' punded those wiio were nol quick enough of speech to join iho first exclamations. That sha would have had It tlfen, if the string had obly he'en three fifths of a mile nearar,ihet>' can be no doubt but before e imiog to tho quarter stretch Mary locked and pats ed bar,and both run down that portion 6f the course at tremvndout speed, Kate a length nr iVro behind, until they wete abreast the distance post. Mary, it was universally eoncr-drd would be the winner uf thn heat, and t be backers of " the field" against her would have been chaYged double p'rice by tbe bar bar had they been under hi* hands at tha moment. But hark] a shout was heard from the crowd beluw, eyas that had been abstracted from the scene of con test, in the belief that all doubt was over, were turn towards the two animals, and behold, rad jnrkei had dune the business tn the space of a few yards, bring Keia Converse out winm-r by a length in lha clear in 3m. 56s. Nuw there was a Babel like confusion of opinions as to th«- final result. Kate was lucked on by many a* having done all that could be expected ol her in the wsy of winning, believing sh** would not hold out in the repeat, while oilier* depend on her speed, and hoped, Ta'ber than bel eved site would take the purse. Mary, it was known could d-i at much at the had dona and Inasshurt a lime, but 8alikshat- cliee nut in her pretentions, and was disnoted to have bt-r chat in the tea party thia bear. Tnp Knot area supposed lo.be too gallant to interfere in the sal (lament or tbrafair unless tha ladies thocld quar rel.

It was ascertained thnt of the horses handicap?* petl, Omega. Fanny and Lady Cava, would come up to the scratch.

Now came the triaffor the heat. The grey went to work in right good earnest, and created n gap of some length* on the hack stretch.
