Obscura the Goodwood Club Stakes. The Stewards' Cup 

 produced a breeze, Mr Rolt had declared to win with Col- 

 lingwood, his two horses came in first and second, but The 

 Cur had the precedence : whereupon Mr Rolt preferred a 

 complaint before the stewards against Whitehouse, the rider 

 of The Cur, for disobedience of orders. Whitehouse de- 

 fended himself by urging that he did not know whether it 

 was Collingwood or Campanile that was running him in, 

 and that defence was accepted. Col. Peel's Lola Montez 

 won him a stake worth twenty-four hundred pounds. For 

 the Molecomb, Glendower beat Nectar — the filly carrying 

 7lbs. extra for the Lavant. The race for the Cup was one 

 of the most extraordinary ever beheld, The Hero, with John 

 Day, jun., on him, making the most terrific running from 

 end to end, and coming in a winner by a clear length. 

 Clementina gave Slander 61bs. and a beating for the Nassau ; 

 and Collingwood carried off the Chesterfield Cup. 



York August was a good meeting. Mr Meiklam was in 

 force with Inheritress, who ran off with the Dundas Stakes, 

 and Her Majesty's Guineas, just as she pleased, while his 

 Ar'stotle did the same with the Macaroni Stakes and the 

 Lottery Plate. The Prince of Wales's Stakes produced a 

 splendid race for the two year olds, won by Springy Jack 

 by a head, Assault, with 2lb. extra, second. Mr Gully's 

 Mathematician won the Great Ebor Handicap easily ; and 

 likewise the County Cup. 



A crowd of provincial meetings occupied the interval 

 between York and the great Northern meeting, but our 

 space does not allow us to dwell on them, otherwise we 

 should mention The Hero's triumph for the Cup at Warwick. 



Doncaster preserved its usual appearance both as to com- 

 pany and sport. Assault won the Champagne, beatmg 

 Loadstone by a neck ; and also the Two Year Old Stakes 

 by a length easily. The St Leger brought out the limited
