At the Jockey Club Dinner, after the match, Mr. Long of- 

 fered to run Boston against Fashion, for $20,000, $5,000 for- 

 feit, four-mile heats, at any time to be agreed upon by the par- 

 ties between the 25th of September and the 25th of October, 

 next. 



He also authorized us to state in our Extra., that he would 

 bet $1,000 he wins with Boston the regular Jockey Club purse, 

 four-mile heats, on Friday, on the Union Course, — $1,000 that 

 Boston -wins the Jockey Club purse at Ti-enton, and $1,000 that 

 Boston wins the Jockey Club purse at Camden, the week fol- 

 lowing. 



Last Day. — ^The attraction of three races, in one of which 

 Boston was to contend with a son of Bonnets o' Blue, drew a 

 large assemblage to the course, and they were amply entertained 

 by a race — if not so brilliant as that of Fashion on Tuesday — 

 at least as critical and apparently more doubtful. 



The sport commenced with a trial of speed at mile heats be- 

 tween Tempest and Prima Donna, the colt winning in two 

 heats, the latter of which was particularly interesting. Time, 

 1.55 — 1.55. Joe Laird jockied the winner, who, we regret to 

 Bay, was sold at auction after the race, and was knocked down 

 for the paltry sum of $180, to Capt. Shirley, of the 7th Hussars, 

 B. A., who has been in attendance upon our races. Other stock 

 was offered, but we learn was bid in.
