EVACUATION OF TUB PRINCIPALITIES.' 
The Moniteur publishes tho following : — “The Ilussiuu 
envoy has announced to the cabinet of Vienna, that tho 
Emperor Nicholas has just ordered tho complete evacuation 
of the Principalities of WaHachia and of Moldavia. Notwith- 
standing this doclurntion, Count Buol exchanged notes with 
Baron Bourquency and Lord Westmoreland on the 8th Inst., 
from which it results that Austria agrees with England as to 
tho guarantees to be required from Russia, in older to preclude 
the return of the complications which have troubled the repose 
of Europe, and engages not to treat with Russia, unless she 
obtains these guarantees, until the ro-cstablisliment of general 
peace.” 
Ade’s Registered CRiCKnf Belt. — This belt, which 
is advertised in “ The Field” of to-day, is highly spoken of 
by our leading cricketers. The plate, which certainly adorns

veterans find tho beltnsoful, but it is just suited for a prizo for 
boys, over so emulous of distinction at school, when wickets 
are in tho way.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. 
THURSDAY.— Loans —The Royal assent was given by commission 
to various bills, among which were the Bribery 11111 and tho Common 
Law Procedure Bill. 
The Russian Government Securities Bill, and several measures relating 
to the militia, were severally read a third time and passed. 
Lord Campbell having referred to the difficulties which were thrown 
In tho way ot erecting a monument to tire poet Campbell In Westminster 
Abbey, owing to tire heavy fee (200/.) demanded by the Dean and Chapter 
of the Cathedral, 
The Earl of Aberdeen suggested that it would bo more advisable to 
try and raise the money by private subscription, rather than seek to ob- 
tain it by a public grant. 
Tho Marquis of Clonricardc wished for some further information re- 
garding the progress of the war, and the alliances and confederacies 
which had been entered into among tho European powers in relation 
thereto. He pointed out tho neglect or incompetence of the function- 
arles intrusted with the management of different departments, or of the 
government generally. Among them lie dwelt upon the Inefficiency of 
tho commissuriat ; the i completeness of the blockades In tho White and 
Black Seas; and the want of gun-boats, of whose paramount importance 
in the operations In the Baltic he expressed his decided conviction. 
Passing on to the diplomatic branch of tho subject, Lord Clanrlcarite 
Insisted on the propriety of laying before parliament the text ol tho 
treaty, concluded between Austria and Turkey. He inquired what 
gaurantecs existed that Austria would ■ ver evacuate the Principalities 
which she was permitted to occupy; and, pointed out that the Austrian 
army would be interposed between the belligerents, and atilo to retain a 
position of armed neutrality with tho power, which it was much to bo 
feared would be ultimately exercised, ol changing thut attitude for one 
of armed intervention. 
The Earl of Clarendon explained that the delay In producing tho 
Austro-Turkisli treaty arose from some technical omission, which 
would shortly be repaired. Respecting the condmct of Austria, lie felt 
assured now, as in times past, that her hearty co-operation was seoured 
to the Western Powers alike by hei honour, her dignity, and her 
interest. The anticipation of movement on her part hud already occa- 
sioned the Russian armies to retreat, and the British ministry had learnt 
only two day’s previously that Prince Gortschakoff hud received orders 
from tho Czjir to evacuate both the principalities. Austria had, no 
doubt, taken her ow n time, but the interests at stake on her part w ere 
very extensive, and the organisation of her existing army of 3110,000 men 
had presented gigantic difficulties. The Western Powers, on their side, 
had proceeded in perfect independence of tho Vienna cabinet, and had 
not incurred an hour's delay in any military undertaking by waiting for 
Austria to settle or declare her course of action. Lord Clarendon added 
that from notes lately interchanged between tho British and Austrian 
governments, it appeared that tho latter were equally determined with 
ourselves not to accept peace on tho basis of tho status quo ante. No 
peace would be considered honourable which did not securo the dignity 
and independence of tho Ottoman Empire. 
After a reply from tho Marquis of Clunrlcarde the subject dropped. 
Their lordships adjourned at 10 minutes to 8. 
Commons. — The Lord's amendments to several bills were considered 
and agreed to. 
Some other business having been got through, the Houso adjourned at 
a quarter past six until three p m this day

Commons. — A new writ was ordered to issue for the borough of Mary- 
lebone, In the room of Sir B. Hall, who had accepted office. 
Several notices of motion were given for next session. Among others,

vents und nunneries; Sir J. Paklugton promised a motion respecting

the Russian Government Securities Bill were considered and agreed to. 
The issue of tho election writs for the five boroughs so long kept 
without representatives, on account of bribery and corrupt practices ut 
the lust general election, was moved seriatim by Sir W. Jolllffe. 
The writ for Canterbury having been proposed, 
Mr. T. Duncombc moved as an amendment that provision should bo 
made tor enabling the electors to give their votes by ballot. 
The amendment was negatived on division by 40 votes to S3 ; and 
the original motion for issuing tho writ adopted on a second division by 
45 votes to 32. 
The writ for Cambridge was ordered to Issue by a majority of 46 
against 31; thut for Maldon by 47 against 31; and that for Barnstaple 
also by 47 to 91. _ „ . 
The motion relative to the last borough, Klngston-upon-Hull, being 
proposed, 
Mr. Hume a-ked whether, in tho event of the Bribery Bill falling, 
Lord John Russell would promise to try the ballot. 
Lord J. Russell declined to iflve any such undertaking. lie promised, 
however, to renew next session his attempt to amend the law relating to 
controverted election petitions. 
Sir F. Kelly gave notice for next session of his Intention to bring for- 
ward a bill enabling electors to vote by means of written declarations. 
A last division w*» taken, and tho writ for Hull ordered by a majority 
of 50 to 30—20. 
Tho House adjourned at twenty minutes to eight. 
RACING. 
“On the green, green turf." 
Mr. EoiTon, — To* morrow, tho 12th of August, will wit- 
ness 1 1 to opening of tho season on the moors, ami the closing 
of the Session at Westminster. Few of the younger members 
are ever oxpected to koep close to their purliameuiary duty 
when once tlio grouse ure fairly up ; and wo muv soon hear of 
as much slaughter among the birds as wo have lntoly beheld 
of tile bills nearer li' nv . But us my business is with raring 
and not shooting — though the chuugo of sport just now is 
especially tempting — I nm<t turn inward* ihw lent* of tlio 
thorough-bred*. Wo hate had a multiplicity of races 
through. ml ill" week, and tlicro are a* many, or more, to como 
during the next. All these minor affairs, however, servo as 
so many whets to the appolitu lor the feast preparing at 
York. 
Your readers cun have no reaBon to complain of the number 
of winners I ■“lecto l for you. Lough Hawn, His Piper, St. 
Clair, Miami Ally, Kennyside Hero, and Clotilda uro all on 
the right aido. Tho seconds, too, muster about an equal 
quantity. But for the clever trlek ot Brother to Grey Tommy 
in tho Berkshire Stake.', I should Imvo anticipated the return 
list w>th Mishap first und Vlugt’-uii second. I liave no incli- 
nation, however, to go over old ground, and endeavour to 
explain why I ought to have been right, and how 1 Happened 
to bo wrong; so let us turn towards Wolverhampton, and seo 
what may be tho upshot there. The time days' races are, as 
usual, ushered in by a Trial Stakes. This handicap has an 
entry of thirteen, Kohinoor heading the ll»t with 8at 71b. 
Should he show, ho ought to win ; hut I doubt thut h« will 
run. Prime Miuistor, if in anything like Ilia old form, must, 
at 8sf, be trebly dangerous. I ura Inclined, however, to 
place more confidence In last yeur’s winner, Calot. Guicowat 
and Lady in Waiting handy at the finish. 
Tint Produce Stakes will, uouhtle**, go to St. Clair. 
Wolverhampton Stakes — Twenty* ouo uccoptuncos. 
Rataplan with 9st 41b. Ilis appearance at tho post seems 
questionable. Of the top weights my preference is towards 
ludiun Warrior mid the half-hrcd Bonrtoo. Old Alp can’t 
grumble at Gst 101b. Knight Errant, I believe, bus not been 
out this season ; ho is well 111 at G»t ; but the di.-tanco may 
l.e too far for him. Of the young ones Nowbold, Caliph, and 
Gamelad, perhaps, deserve most consideration. The race, I 
fancy , roata between Hourton, Alp, Newbold, and Qumelud ; 
and I el. all go for tho steeple- chaser. 
Committee Stakes, with selling allowances. This little 
affair may be placed to tho credit of Rose or Clmicina. 
Tuesday. Patshull Handicap.— Wo ure likely to have 
a smart Held for this race. To my notion tho lot from which 
the winner may spring is Robin Hood, Alonzo, Battery, and 
New Warrior. 
Chilli noton Stakes, for two-yr olds; seventeen sub- 
scribers. This lot of youngsters ,j suspect, will bo found far 
inferior to that of lost your. Mary, if not the actual winner, 
ought to be well up. 
Cleveland Cup. — D efiance or Goorknli. 
Tub Prise Handicap. — Kennyside Hero or Liberty. 
Wednesday.— The Foal Stakes I must leave to Wire 
and Medal. 
Holyoake Stakes.— If Alonzo and Lurley cannot manage 
this between them, let mo look to Pyrois or Stiletto to furnish 
the winner. 
Stewards’ Cup. — A handicap of 3 sovr. each, with 2 d 
added, by W. T. Copeland, Esq. Adeluide and tho Game 
Chicken strike mo ns being well in. Tho Field-Marshal’s 
victory may, howover, koop tlio pony in the worthy donor’s 
pocket. 
Eghau presents itself to notice on Tuesduy and n ednesuny. 
King John Stakes. — This two-year-old raco bus an 
entry of sixteen ; und it is just possiblo that Saucebox, 
Brother to Twinklo, and Wooden Wall muy be the throe first 
horses. 
SunREY AND Middlesex Stakes.— A poor acceptance of 
half a dozen ; ten having paid forfeit. Sleeping Partner must 
rouso up, or the Mouser will he certain to overtako him. 
Runnymbde Stakes —I utn without the declarations of 
forfeit, ond shall offer no opinion os to t ho result. 
The Magna Ciiarta Stakes ought to bo something like 
a certainty for Saucebox. 
Barons’ Stakes. — The Despised or Brother to Twinkle. 
Yours, 
Toby Peeps. 
Friday, llth August, 1854. 
Coventry.— Lute on Thursday evening a coroners’ jury 
returned a verdict of wilful murder against Alice Livrick for 
the murder of a baby. 
Important Sales op Blood Stock at York. — During 
the York meeting, oil Wednesday the 23rd, Messrs. Tattersall

Jaquea’s) stud, numbering 41 lots, namely, ten yearlings, 12 
foals, and 19 brood mures, the latter covered by Birdeutcher, 
Mildew, Gameboy and Longbow. On Thursday, the second, 
unnuul *alo of yearlings, bred by the Ruwcliffe Joint Slock 
Stud Farm Company, will take place nt tho Paddock*, near 
York ; there are 28 lota by the Flying Dutchman, Pyrrhus tho 
First, Chanticleer, Melbourne, and other well-known stallions. 
On Friday a large portion ot Mr. Meiklain s racing stud will
