QuBEV, Esq.—While a few pf the fogy philosophical fmmps are debating on the "necessity" of a new traaala- tlon of the Bible, and the controversy about allowing ma- sk) b itie parks on Sundays seems to be kept up with a holy vigor of witgperalion/s31-bountlftil Providence has bless^ our store with Dien^.as well aa peace, and the people proper on thee;'Islands have been ei\joylng tbem- selves with cricket matches, regattas, all sorta bt raobig trom pedestrianlm to ehoulder-blitlng,and nsaally wind- ing up the day with a jolly good dinner, or else an elegant anpper and a lively dance with the loveliness of the land. I cannot help telling you bow contlnaaHr oar party wish tbat yon was here to see the sighla. Whenever we "cnnidaorat"anythlnggood,ranglngfrom an ambulatory sahncm tpr a new hotel, the cry i»—"Frank ought to see thatr',>r, "If Frank was . here, he'd have that in the OuiTAl'' /-^One of the oddest results of the late war in the Crimea has been the assimilation of oostumes. Eoglaod, from its insulated position, bas always berefore been slow to adopt any new cnangea of dress or of equipment But thla last war WIS such a hodge-podge of aUlaocis that we now tiave Hnngarlan caps, Turkish trowsers, Fellsaler paletots, and Sardinian shawls, in addition to the usual "ahoctlng snlts" of the season. The ladles nnat have their Bemons k la Bedouin, (very graceful little Arab cloaks,) accom' panled will ell sorts of zlbellne for mourolng, and an bu definable as well as unapproachable anonnt of zepbyrlfe, crinoline, and other articles of "lUnalon" for nnder«loth- log trousseaux, wblob I fear must remain Indeaoribable by your modest conespoodent as hs la not yet aufflciently well atqualnted With the ftunltnre of diving bells. ' Even the veiT fasblea now bawl out for their bassuiettea Bncb being tne state of affairs b tills Orlental-run-mad Island of Great Britain, most of our party have concladed to put In for Kentucky hunting frocks, Canadian mocoasInB, and such like. So, now tbat Leatberatocklng takes bis (Kll- deer) gun In band, you may imagine ny "plcter" bb I go out upon the moors to have a oraok at the game. We have had a right pleasant time in this ancient, city, whence kings and bishops formerly " nuted" each other. (By the way, your chess department is ouch liked here.) But now the prinolpal contests at " Old Tork" are con- fined to seeing who can lead the most Jolly lUk by fishing In the Dose or hunting (ehootlng) on the moors, for Leeds, Sheffield. Bradford, and such like manolbotnrlng townB In l^e nelgnborhood, have swallowed up all the bnsinesa ao- orulng from Engbtnd's prosperity, while Tork—the orlgt- nal 'zerk, so famous in " the wars of the roses"—remains, with all Its ancient grandeur and knightly associations, as a seat of learning, oi beauty, of bravery, and of hospi- tality. The week has been lively for racing aad stable inol- denta in this old city of stmggles. The course here la oironlar and very even.. Once roond it Is a mile and six fnrlonge and about fifty yard&~ Since I was previously in Knglatid, the new. winning post has been placed aboot fif- ty yards nearer the Orand Bland, thna leaving aetrklj^t run in of five fhrlonga and forty.foQr yards, and this forma the T. T. C, or two-year-old course. . Monday was occupied with preparations, and on Tnes- day the sale of the BawoUffe Stud (Company'e thirty-two blood yearliogs took place, as Intimated Inmyprevlcus letter, mailed at Liverpool. The average proeeMs are a trifie under 100 gubeas eaoh lot which Is 11 guineas under the average of last year. In particular bstances, how- ever, the prioe ranged higher. The crack this year vras brother to Schiedam, and he was bought for the Danebury stable at 710 gnbeaa.. Schiedam was the oraok laat year, but did not fetoh so mnch by 2S0 golneaai For my part, I thbk that the utility of the BawclUIeOompiiny depends upon its improvement of breeds and equalizallbn of prioei. Wednesday the fan began 'with the Dniidas Stakes, and the Torlcahiremen were all agog for bets wlUi tiie " Loon- oners" or any other partiea wno might not agree 'with then In judging of a horse's probabilities. Zeta took the Oondas, 'Fordham (the rider) making a great brush past Qosdy, and.wlnning Jtya heeid Loi3-2etlaod'«. Fandai>> g> walked over for the Burgundy Stakea The 'Tcrkshire akswant to Mr. Bowers's 'Victoria (West Australian's tister,) although Mr. Brooke's Manganese "threatened" to take tite swag, and Lord Chesterfield's Fortuna was close behbd. Capt. White's Queen of the East walked over for the Black Dock Btakea Hr. Howard's Saraband (ridden by J. Goater thla year) went b with a rash for the Ohea- terSeld Handicap, and won; Sir 0. Monk's Yindex se- cond, and Hr. Jackson's Lord Alfred'third. The North and South Biennial was, strictly speaking, the beat con- tested race of the day. Aleppo (now owned by Oaptab White) and Hr. Hill's Bogeruorpie (old stable compan- ions) had most of the flu to themselvesl - Boger made the mnnbg prinolpsUy, until 200 yards from home, and then Aleppo ooallenged so briskly as to.make It a dead heat In tne decldbg heat Boger walked over, and the two own- ers divided the first and second monevs, allowbg the thirds to Ur. Merry's Polmoodle. Blbk Bonny made a determbed dash lor the Oonvlvlal, but the stakes'were won by the maiden Lady Hawthorne, a daughter of Alice Hawthorne and Windbonnd; Augury was second; Blbk Bonny third: and Werdersmarke (half brother to Ellbg^ ton) fourth; Skyoutter, Matilda, and Special License, vrere also beaten b thla. The " crownbg" event of the day waa for Her M^'ealy'a Plate, and this was won by Lord Zetland's Fasdugo (ridden by Job Harson b his well- iniown colors,) beatbg Pretty Boy, Typee, Stork, Fish ennan, &o. ' The Torkshiremen growled somewhat at Blbk Bonny, and I must .ay that she evidently "coat them something." Her not .winning the Convivial was attributed to an acci- dent sboe she left Malton; but tiie (act Is, she ran very well, and although third, she waa but a length and a haU behind the winner, who is a raobg soreamer already. Angary, the second b the Convivial, 'won two races ue next day. Pretty eplrited company, as yon will perceive.' Ton know the old story—"Thee's free Loonon, Aw eitbsel" "Noa, lee Torkshire tool"; . On Thorsday the attendance was still greater, fhb Filly Sapling Stakes went to Vanity, with Beatrlofe seBohd: The EgUnton went to Augury, Witn Prboeas of C^ge seciad. The Great Ebor Handicap fell to Warlook, Mei^ lb, and Cramekeeper. Th^ North of Engluld Biennial came out for Augury and Strathnave^ The Ebor' St Leger went to Artillery and Forbidden Fruit The Eope- fbl were caught by FlBherman,with Coup de Hab for ua secondsL The Pnnce of Wales's fell to Ignoranms And Saunterer. The Produce were reaped by Gertsobakoff, with Hebe for the gleanbga TheXottery Plate fell to Sheelah and Salpltla. Weatiier beantiflil. People here call It warm, but I think the Joke hardly ripe. Bettbg was the warmeat suhjeot I can find.- The Torkshiremen do not oare fbr their money, but go death on their opbion. "Dom these Loo- non jookles I Aw'll shake 'em cut 'ter domd jocklts. Aw could ride yon horse mysen to wlk Aw tell 'tee Aw know Aw oonld." To tell the truth, altiiotagh the "Loon onsTB" are "cute," the Torkshiremen are "larder north," and every boy b Torkshtre Is a sportsman by nature. ' Of the prooeedbgs to4ay,I find myself unable to men tion them, unless I deprive my letter of the variety I sup- pose yon require. .Weather glorious, but am somewhat dutty b the throat Shall take "a gloss of aherry and a blsomt" white dinner Is gettbg ready. - As previously stated, the moor game seem shy and scarce as yet' But the pari ridges look forward and prom- Isbg. There will be no ocoaBlon for holding back antU the loth, (ad was done last year by general consent,) hot the Joe Mantcns will be brought on the morning of the let Beptember, as usual, for a pop at the lArtrldges, Already more thanhalf of the"UBeubled legislative wisdom" of Great Britab and Ireland a^e out gun in hand, npon the mooie north of'thlsjand'awav but to In- vemess, and even to Banfhhlie. The deer in the Hlgh- Unds seem forward b the head, but lack weight yet for the true sportsman's ilfle. The Vice Chsncellor txA the Attoraey-General passed through here laat wedc on their wu to the moors. In the south and west Ihe-Devon and BomerBet stsg- bounds have already started the deer ftaa theUntoD ^ Dalverton lalra. They think nothbg of atwentaymQe basf'tiiere. The foxes begin to come down from the Wdah moun- tains, and Pembrokesbirs has to look after Ila ge«a« torkeys. A comical thbg occurred lately at Burton; The inhabitants heard a great .oacklbg of geeae, and ca look- ing out found a Monsieur Beynatd very gravely (ehep- herd fashion) drivbg a fleck of geeee towards the earths of the Burton Monntaln. However, the earth steepen and atlendanU b Mr. Lnoley's Hunt had a dinner the other day by way of beginnbg the season. After, that, the Lord help Mens. Beynard. The cricketbg Is better and better. The United All England intend playing in Ireland during the ftrst week b Beptember; they have but one iotervenbg engage- ment—that at Llanelly b Wales next Monday a^tlnst twenty-two. The All England meet at Longhbacngt on Monday, and on Thnreday they ore' to meet' twen^-two at Hull, so that the Yornblremen will have another chance for fun.
