conittlio,f, the great race for the Cesarowitach

Ji4eting,ort Tuesday, October 18, was that
publiahed is the London papers of the neat
Morning, which arrived at , Liverpool about
neon ; just in thicto be put on board the mail
steamer..Beale. That account we gave, in
Sail, in Tun Pares on Tuesday: Octane, with
editotiel 'notes and comments on the event,
;Weald appear, as usual, in the three groat
,sporting patitirs of London—Bell's Life, The
..Era, anti, The Field--all published on Sunday,
'October 18. We desire to offer some facts,
-with Opeeilationa of our own upon them. '
Three American horses were taken over to
~tngland, several months' ago, by Mr. TEN
•Baosoir, with the avowed purpose of winning
every thing—if possible. Prior, Locompte,
add Prioress, the horses ,in question, had ob-
Mined obi& reputation in this country. In
Mir social system, to be (4 fast " has happily
beCorno unpopular, <particularly as people
cannot afford' it in •these "hard times,") but
if hi - very creditable for a racer to be "fast,"
,and sometimes very profitable, too.' Mr. Tv;
13‘ttoion's cattle bad won this character, and a
very naturaland honorable ambition led him
'to 'England with them.
A single sentence will relato their history
there, -The drat trial, at Goodwood, was a
mibiequent running was bad; Pryor,
at last; Was struck out of (withdrawn from) all
engagements;his Lecompte died; and Pri
oiess won the Oasarewitsch, with such unusual
distinction; that she now stands, on the Eng
lisii:ttirf;;;lS a forinklable'coinpotitor to the
.hest: English 'racers. This one great, undenia
lilisucesie his done It, Perhaps most of her
: Mindiers and backers here hive wondered why
it, 'Wits notldone before. We ;Mall presently
ilesch. that Toint—at present, we treat of the
historical part of the matter.
Two days beferethe race, Bell's Life, anti
elpatinglY disenisingthe Newmarket meeting,
gave a series, of tanning comments upon the
expectancies, from their previous perform
mices;of the different horadi entered for the
racw."' It said: et Neither can I look favorably
flied the.chances of the American pair after
the recent running of Pryor at Leicester, and
Prioress this week at. Chester."
Pryor is lent of, the question now, we
need not go back to his Leicester failure. As
feePeCtii 'Prioress at Chester, the fact is, that,
only 4344 days imforo she ran and won at
Newtharket, she had come in seventh for what
was called eiThe" Shorts Handicap," (stakes
'ujidei $1,000), end made no running worth
notke 'fiareiy escaping being w distanoed."
She ci:rritSl 0 at. 10 lb., as a 4 year old, and
Skycutter, the winner, a 8 year old, carried 0
4,lhs.', The betting, at starting, by the way,
waft 6-to-1 against Prioress, and 7to 1 against
'the winner. .
Atfere this race at Chester,
,but on the same
day, the odds taken against her, at Tattersalt's,
were 60 'to 1. •On the mit betting day (Oct.
8) she,-Was net named, but 25 to 1 were taken
against 'EI Hakim, who came in aecond,Ml
theldmiaheat, in the ;race. At Newmarket,
the :day before the, race, Prioress waa not
gamed in the betting, but El Hakim- had
aprting'lm' as' high as 8 to 1, while against
Queen Bess (who, came in third 'On the dead

tion necessarily takes place, should also carry
heavier weights than those which have not.
Thus, on the race for the Cesarewitsch, Prio
ress, ,as a 4 year
,old, carried 27 lbs. snore
weight than QUeeif BOW a year" younger,
while Fisherntan, also tr 4 year old; but a
winner before, carried 9 at. 8 lbs.' against'
Prioress with 6 at. 9 lbs.
The actual terms of the Cestirawltsch'will
show how the additional weights aro put on.
The Racing Cal¢ndar puts the title, terms,
end entry thus :
4 ' The Cesarewitsoh Free Handicap of 25 mg.
each, 15 ft., with 200 added by the Jockey Club,
for three year olds and upwards ; the winner of
the Doncaster St. Leger 12 lb, the second iu the
St. Leger, or the winner of the Doncaster Cup, or
th e Great Yorkshire Handicap D ib, of any handi
cap value 200' Bova. 'Deluding the winner's own
stake, after Sept. 4 3 lb extra; the extra weights
not to be accumulative; the second to twelve 50
soya out of the stakes, and the winner to pay 30
soya. to the fudge ; Cesarewitott Course; 71 subs."
Thus, running for the Cambridgeshire
stakes, Prioress, as winner of the Cessrewitsch,
must pay the penalty of greatness, and carry
weight additional, to what oho should carry as
a plain four-year old.
Two points remain to be noticed : Mow
Prioress, who was " no where" at Goodwood,
and barely escaped being distanced At Chester,
Should have won, so well, at Newmarket,, has
puzzled many, who knew what she ought to
do. Next, what money, has Mr. TEN Enoxost
won by the race 1
It Is admitted that, at Goodwood, the mis
take was in having Prioress jockeyed by
rider not fully acquainted with the course on
which the running was made. For, whereas,
in America, our horses run on solid, level
courses; in England, they, rue on turf, the
elasticity of which is affected by the vicissi
tudes of weather—bid:lc soft and heavy, when
there is rain, and bard as Iron when there has
been an excess of heat. Morooier, the
English race-grounds are purposely,not level.
They are constructed 'with rises and falls—an
ascent 'here, a descent there, and a sharp
corner, wherever one can be. thrust in. At
Newmarket, all this is carried on,bnt Prioress
was ridden by an English jockey, who know
every inch of the route he had to traverse.
Add to this that she was, in very bad condition
at Goodwood, and after proper training, was
in excellent order at Newmarket.
What has Mr. TEN llitosou won / The
stakes amount to about $lO,OOO. The ques
tion is—did Mr. TEN BRAM% back Prioress
'in the betting-ring. The odds were fearfully
against her-100 to 1, at starting. Could any
one have known to a certainty, that she was
cs safe to win,' a fortune might have. been
made, provided there had been a sufficient
amount of bets. Here, we bet horse against
horse—that Prioress would beat El Hakim, for,
example—but in England the betting is not
that Prioress, El Hakim, or Queen Bess should
win, but that either of them should not win.
This English system has mated what may
be called the Science of Hedging—a thing re
ally understood only by few. The late Lord
,Gsoaar. BENTINOIC MN intuitively a master of
this science. So, at this day, Is a person
named Davie, the most extensive better on
the English turf, who was a joinieytuan car
penter some ten or twelve years ago, but, by
quickness of mental calculation, thorbugh
knowledge of what he is doing, accurate ac
quaintance with the ability and performances
of each racer, and wonderful memory, is now
a millionaire and a. sort of Autocrat on the
Turf—particularly as ho has never failed to meet
all his engagements—and they have sometimes
included losses of £50,000 in a single week.
Such men, if they rested on favorites only,
lvould soon be floored. But they go In c; to
make a book," as it is called—l. a., to bet in
such a manner that, even if their main risk be
lost, they can somewhat have a compensation
Out of other beta. Thus, say that the odds
Were 8 to 1 against El Seidl:l 2 'BB tol against
QUeen Bess, and 100 to 1 against Prioress,
a man taking the odds would . pocket £lOO
by Prioress' winning: but the man bet
ting against her would take the odds on the
other horses, and instead of losing £lOO,
would have gained £8 on El Hakim and £33
on' Z2uoen Bess, making £4l gain to be put
against 400 loss on Prioress—balance £59,
instead of £lOO. But he would not tontine
himself to two or three bets, but would
go 'on, generally, for many, probably bet•
ting the "odds against every ono winning.
Here he would pay £lOO to Prioress,
but would receive about £lBO from the
rest, and actually, by " hedging," pocket
the difference, gaining on the whole (aunt.
lous as it may appear) by having lost the
largest of 'all the bets. The aggregate of
all the odds—the 84 horses that started for the
Casarewitsch—makes about £180; there would
be £lOO to be paid, at the first odds, if Prioress
won—and .Cl2O to receive as balance on the
!rest. This would give a gain of £2O by the
hedge.
Mr. TEN BROECK would certainly have
backed his own filly, when he could do so at
such odds-100 to 1. When the first heat
was over, and she became the favorite, he
would have more betters, but smaller amounts
to receive. We doubt not that he has won
largely. .Even as we write, we bear (by the
Persia) of another of his two-years old, Belle,
winning the Bedford Stakes, at Newmarket.

Pas, October 15, 1857.
Every now and then, a lusty " Bull" from
the Bourse Impertale leaps over the pales, and
is detected browsing in the political pastures.
The same is true with the "Bears." The
politicians, on the other hand, are perpetually
poaching upon the precincts of the Exchange.
Wholesale stock-jobbing and the art and mys
tery, of government are hero so very nearly
synonymous, that, in fact, an amazing power
of discernment is necessary in order to dis
cover where the one begins and the other
ends. Accidental causes, however, have re
cently brought me Into confidential relations
with n" Bear," who has been giving me les
sons on these subjects, and who, if not a pure
Bugbear, can be no other than the very Ursa
Major himself! I dare not mention names ;
for a whisper on such subjects is treason, and
treason is death. At least, it is death to
Frenchmen, and my informant (no ordinary
man, and with no ordinary opportunities of
information) belongs to that category. I will,
however (with this reservation) proceed to
give you the toner of his story.
He goes to the extraordinary length of as-'
Raring me thole dearent upon England, is actu

the thunderbolt is close at hand! Notwith
standing the entente cordials which the Empe
ror has all along so sedulously cultivated with
Groat Britain—notwithstanding the almost
pompous deference that is habitually evinced
toward the English ambassador, nor the fre
quency with which lie has been seen to dance
the Lancers with Her Imperial Majesty, and
maugre even the neighborly visits that have
been going on between the Emperor and Queen
Victoria—there is Mill, he says, a deep and
irreconcileable rancor in the heart of Franco
towards her ancient and hereditary foe--a ran
cor which nothing can appease but blood,
and blood by hecatombs; and in which rancor
no human being participates more cordially
than the Emperor. Ho is the immediate heir
to all the untold rage of St. Helena. Eveiy
dooming curse which burst from that tortured
heart has been treasured by him as a " rich
legacy"—a legacy which must be discharged
and paid with the same scrupulous fidelity
with which every other clause in the Brat Em
peror's will has been fulfilled.
The 'scheme has been long in preparation.
The voyage of the house of Oudo to England
was a part of it. The insurrection of English
India ie another part of it; both the work
of French diplomacy. The lato interview of
Louis Napoleon with the Russian Emperor is
another and a fatal part of 14 whilst

By way of collateral incidents in tho pro

REMOVAL OF THE PHILADELPHIA
POST-OFFICE.
THE CAMDEN TREATY.
(SMUG I:I6IIPATCA YOR TIM Mal.]
Wasnixarox, Oot. 28.—1 t depends upon the mom
hers of Congress from tho city and county of Phila.
delphio whother work shall commence immediately
to alter and flt up either the old United States
Bank building or the building now 000uplod by
the Pennsylvania Bank, for post-offlooJpurposos, as
will be soon from the following statement, derived
from MEMO sources :
Some time ago, a petition, signed by 30,000 citi
zens, was sent to the President, strongly protest.
leg against the removal of the post office to the
Pennsylvania Bank building. In obedience to
this expression of the opinion of so large a num.
bor of persons directly interested, the work on this
building was stopped. By act of Congress Gov
ernor Bnowx was one bled to effect the change
which had boon begun ; but yielding to what
seemed the general desire, he agreed, with the
consent of the President, to let the question go
over to the next session, then to be determined by
the representations and wishes of the city and
eounty members.
Lately, however, while in Philadelphia, he was
waited upon by large numbers of its prinolpal
merohants and citizens in reference to this subject.
They stated that sines the petition against the re•
mond to the Pennsylvania, Bank had boon for
warded to Washington, they had learned of tho
intention of the Department through Tiss NUB,
to establish throughout the city branch offiees, in
imitation of the celebrated London system,
and that this fact had to a great extent re
lieved their minds of the °Weakns which they
had entertained before to that removal. The
laboring classes were threatened with dis
tress during the approaching winter, and, in com
mon with others, they were anxious to ward
it of in whatever way possible. If this work wore
prosecuted now, employment would be given, until
spring, to two hundred moolutnies, and be the
means of furnishing subsistence to fifteen hundred
or two thousand souls. This was important, and
therefore:they:would ask for a settlement of the
question without delay. The President and his
Cabinet hive had the matter before them, and,
as I understand, it , has been left to the action
of the Postmaster General. Ile will do all
within his'power to prevent suffering among the
laboring classes, and if the members of Congress
will say that in their opinion the poet office should
be removed to the United States Bank building, or
to the building of the Pennsylvania Bank, prepa-
rations will instantly be made for that change.
The Gadsden purchase, south of the Gila and
terminating on the Colorado, in the west, tiontains
upward of twonty-three millions of acres. By the
13th article of the treaty by which we acquired
that territory, concluded in 1853, ratified in June,
'1854, ft was provided that no grants within the
acquired territory bearing date subsequent
to the 25th •of September, 1853, when our
minister proposed to Mello° to terminate
the question of boundary to the Mullis, Valley,
would bo considered valid, nor, indeed, any grant
made previously, unless the same had been handed
and recorded in the arohives of New blexleo. The
act of Congress of 22d July, 1854, establishing the
surveyor general's office in Now Mexico, defines the
duties of that off eer,and requires him to examine and
report upon the merits of the claims under the laws
of Spain andhiexioo, originating before the cession
by treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848. By not
of Congress of 4th of August, 1854, it is declared
that the territory acquired by the Gadsden treaty
should be ineorporated in New Makes, and sub
jeot to the laws of that Territory. It follows,
therefore, that the political jurisdiction of Now
Mexico is complete over its whole surface, both
under the old treaty and the last one.
This is an item of importance in connection with
(,ho question of claims to gold and silver mines in
Arizona—the Gadsden purchase ; and for this
reason : No claims could he tiled for examination
and adjudication by the surveyor general, unless
the statutes placed them within his surveying ju•
risdietion. X. Y.

Another shocking Affair—Probable Murder of
a Wife.—Los.ley's court, a small opening at the
termination of an alley running out of Spruce
street, below Dock, was yesterday the scene of a
frightful tragedy, which recalls to mind the yet
uninvestigated murder of Mrs. Willies, at Seventh
and South streets, some weeks ago. It appears
that a respectable person, living at No. 2, in the
above-named court, upon coming home at noon,
yesterday, ascertained that a woman named Ann
Quigley, who, with her husband, occupied the
basement room of the building, was lying dead
upon her bed, and that the husband was lying
drunk beside her. He therefore went in search of
assistance, and returned with Officer Bechtel, of
the reserve corps. The officer descended into the
miller, when he behold the woman lying upon the
outside of her bed, stark and cold, while the hus
band lay beside her in a state of intoxication. The
officer states that upon asking the man how his
wife came in that situation, Quigley declared that
she bad fallen down the outside stairs, and bad
cut ber head by contact with a tight dents in the
upper part of the door. The officer then accused
him of murdering her, and received for a reply,
" I did, you've got to prove it. You've no right
to arrest me." Learning afterwards that a son and
daughter-in-law of the parties had been upon the
preises subsequent to the probable period of the
wor4an'a death, Officer Bechtel arrested them also,
and conducted them separately to the central po.
lice station.
The name of the old man is James Quigley.
Both himself, his wife, and his eon—whose name
is Hugh—earned their living by peddling apples
from a basket. The age of the old man is up
wards of sixty, that of his wife but little lass. The
son Hugh is about thirty years of age, while his
wife appears to bo at least forty-five. While on
the way to the central station home, the daughter
in-law stated that at about 9 o'clock in the morning,
Hugh, who resides nearer to the outlet of the same
alley, was at his mother's cellar; that he said nee
thing about any trouble, either real or apparent ;
that he was there again at about Welt° o'clock,
after which ho told her that something was the
matter with the old woman, and she had bettergo
and see to her. She therefore took a little pitcher
of tea and went down into the cellar, where she
states she found the deceased gasping her last. She
returned bonze, telling her husband that be had
better go for a priest, but it appears that he did
not comply with the request. Notwithstanding
this, It has not vet transpired that any of the par
ties gave the leant intimation to any one, either
that the deceased had injured herself, or had been
the victim of a fatal assault; and it remained for
a neighbor to give the information to the lathed
tlea, as above elated.
Immediately upon learning that the affair had
occurred, our reporter visited the scene of the
tragedy. The picture presented wan such as
thousands of people now in this city guild never
realize without au ocular demonstration :he
house No. 2 Lesley's court is an old three story
brick building, having a front door in its centre,
with a window on either aide. The cellar occu
pied by the aid people Is entered from wooden
steps outside, terminating in a door, the upper half
of which consists of a small sash of glass. This is
its only means of receivinglight, excepting a small
window, having a grating in front. The interior
of this dimly lighted hole was in a condition at
which swine would almost rebel. A squallid filthy
bed was against the farthest corner, upon which
lay the repulsive corpse of the dead woman, the
head pillowed high upon a bundle made by folding
some old carpet in a 'match directly beneath it.
Upon the top of the cranium griped an open wound
front which the brain was oozing out, while upon
the cheeks and throat ugly bruises protruded their
purple surface from the cadaverous akin. Save
the bed, there was not one satiety article of fur
niture in the room, excepting three rough unpaint
ed shelves against the wall, containing a few filthy
and broken pieces of arockeryware, and a half a
loaf of bread. A small black pitcher, full of cold
tea, which had been brought by the son's wife,
still stood there untested,
The floor was covered with apple baskets, one
of which was full of apples, and empty orange
boxes lying about in all directions. From a string
stretched across the room a few begrimed pieces of
linen were suspended; while a small wash tub
half full of bloody water and a quantity of bloody
clothes stood under the window upon an old box
A rosary hanging upon a nail over the black and
cold tire-place, and an old leather trunk, fast locked,
in which a quantity of coin alone exists, completes
the inventory of the household effects. 'Three min
eral water bottles end a common flask were
taw upon the shelves, smelling strongly of whiskey.
The people residing in the court inform us that
Quigley was addicted to intemperance. No noise,
however, was heard by them, and they are unable
to state at what time the affair transpired. It
seems to be the opinion—though no reason is as
signed for it—that the deceased was murdered
some time during the night. No weapon capable
of indicting such a wound as that found upon the
skull of the deceased could be discovered about
the premises.
Last evening Alderman Emus had a partial hear•
log in the case, when tho following evidence was
elicited :
Officer Bechtel testified that he arrested the ac
cused and searched the house; found awoman in
bed with a out on her head; found blood on the
door, bed and on the bed clothing; the blood on the
door had been c arnally washed up ; ha also de
boribed the position of portions of the furniture ;
from the appearenee of the blood on the floor, the
deed must have been committed some time; Quig
ley told him he wiped up the blood from the floor.
The accused was intoxioated ; he arrested Quigley
and took him to the central police station.
Bugh Quigley, the son of the accused, said that
at Ii o'clock to-day, he went into the room and
found his father lying on the bed on the body ;
raised him, and he awoke and asked for whiskey;
my mother was then breathing; I went up to get
her some tea; when I went back she was deed.
There had been no diffoulty this week between my
father and mother.
Lucy Quigley made a statement. At nine o'clock
this morning, I went down to tho house and raw
the woman breathing ; this man Was about the
room, and was moderately sober; the deceased
was lying on the bed ; I saw no blood on the floor
or clothing, and none on her face ; I heard of no
difficulty in the room between this man and his
wife; the face of the deceased appeared much
swollen.
Last evening Coroner Delores summoned a jury
on the case, and after having a post-mortem exami
nation of the body made, proceeded to the Mayor's
office, whore he investigated the case.
Patrick Laughlin, sworn—Reside at No 2

my duty to have him arrested ; I obtained au officer,
who took the old man in charge; we then searched
about the cellar to ascertain the cause of her death,
we saw blood on the floor. also some blood in a tub
among some Clothe , ; soon after the son of the de.
ceased came in to see the mother; he appeared thy

they had occupied my collar five or six months;
I frequently heard quarrelling in the cellar ; I saw
the deceased yesterday; she wean drinking woman;
her husband was also in the habit of drinking; I
heard no quarrelling last night.
Oross.exatained—The old man told the officer
that the woman had fallen down stairs and cut her
bead with the glass at the door; the son told the
officer that the glass was broken on Sunday night ;
my wife first told me that the woman was dead.
Mary Laughlin, sworn—Resides at No. I Lox
lays court; a was getting up my dinner when I
saw the daughter-in-law of tho deceased go down
into the Cellar with a pot of tea; she was no sooner
down than she came up again and ran down the
alloy to Mrs. Megan's, and told her that the woman
was dying; this was between 12 and 1 o'clock.

(Meer John Beohtel, the officer who made the
arrest. lie went to the cellar, and found the
man lying in the bed ; he asked him how it hap
pened; he said she fell through a glass.; soon after
this the son came in, and while we were looking
about the floor we found a hatchet, but there was
