C. by Surplice, out of C. by Surplice, out of C. by Surplice, out of Beeswax Blue Devils of Latitude. We regret to have to record the death of Mr. Francis Clarke, so well known for so many seasons as the "Pegasus" of Bell's Life, and earlier as "The Young Forester" of The Sporting Magazine. Mr. Clarke, who was in the 56th year of his age, had generally a few horses in training, which were latterly with Stevens at Ilsley. We have also to notice the death of Mr. Feist, who succeeded Mr. Ruff as the turf correspondent of the Times and other morning papers; and known, perhaps, better still at Newmarket for his good delivery of the Lists. He was in his 63rd year. With these we must associate the decease of Mr. J. W. Carleton, more easily identified as "Craven," as well as of Mr. Charles Herring, the second son of Mr. J. F. Herring, and a young artist of something more than mere promise as an animal painter. Lord Derby's filly by Chanticleer, out of Canezou, lately broke her leg in her paddock. She was of course destroyed. We are requested to correct the statement published as to the amount of the Messrs. Hall's liabilities. Instead of two hundred and sixtysix, they do not exceed sixty-six thousand pounds, to meet which there is a considerable amount of property. THE JOCKEY CLUB.-The annual general meeting of the Jockey Club was held at Newmarket on Wednesday, July 2, 1856-present, Lord Glasgow} Lord Anglesey Mr. S. R. Batson Mr. W. Stirling Crawfurd Lord Clifden Mr. Greville Mr. Lowther Stewards. Lord Maidstone Mr. R. H. Neville General Peel Lord. W. Powletta Resolved-That no new rule of the Jockey Club shall be passed, and no new rule be rescinded at any meeting at which less than nine members are present. Resolved-That in inquiries which take place before the stewards, the witnesses examined shall be required to sign their evidence after it has been taken down. Resolved-That if either party in a case which is heard before the stewards of the Jockey Club, desires to have a short-hand writer engaged to take down the evidence, the stewards may, if they think proper, engage a short-hand writer at the expense of the person making the request. The accounts for the last year were presented by the stewards, and passed. Lord W. Powlett was appointed a steward of the Jockey Club in the place of the Earl of Glasgow, who retires by rotation. The Earl of Glasgow was appointed a member of the Bentinck Fund Committee in the place of Mr. Payne, who retires by rotation. The committee for the ensuing year consists of Earl of Zetland Lord H. G. Lennox Mr. Gratwicke Adjourned. Stewards of the Jockey Club. Mr. J. M. Stanley Notice was given that at the next meeting of the Club it will be moved :"That it be a recommendation of the Jockey Club-That no member of the Club, or gentleman connected with the Turf, shall consent to act as steward of, or support any races, where the Newmarket rule as to claiming horses is not adopted, or (if the winner to be sold by auction for the benefit of the racing fund) it is not applied to the beaten horses." In reference to the following table it is only necessary to say that some horses have improved on the prices we thus quote from the Corner. The Goodwood decisions, the wagering on which has, as usual, quite taken the sting out of events further in perspective, will of course lead to some other alterations. In the month's business, Zuyder Zee has decidedly the strongest party. The St. Leger has been next to a dead letter. ST.
