RACING. 
“On the green, green turf." 
Mr. Editor, — Glorious, gorgeous Goodwood is before us; 
and, perhaps, the richest adjective that can be coined would 
express no more than the meeting, in the estimation of the 
supporters of the turf, most justly deserves. AH other gather- 
ings that approach the lost week of July, though well merit- 
ing nttonlion, inevitably suffer by comparison, and Goodwood 
stands alone. Greut Giimsby opens the bull on the 24th with 
its two day- list, possessing more than u local character; hut, 
without offence to tliut place of rising importance, in racing 
iutoiesi it must he content with thu title of Little Grimsby by 
the .-ide of Greut Goodwood. 
I soe that you have boen ploased to stylo my promised let- 
ter “An analysis of the Goodwood Meeting." It will desorve 
no such term ; let it bo culled Goodwood Guesses. 
1 will take the rucea in the order your programme gives 
them. 
Tuesday. 
The Craven Stakes. The entry for this race will not be 
made till Monday evening. 
The Ham Stakes of 100 each, h. ft., for two-year-olds: 
colts 8st. lUlb., and fillies 8st. 7 lb. Dirk Hatteraick is in 
this ruce ; but his showing may bo doubtful. Unless the 
dark Cavalier and Da Cluro possess something above the 
average capability, 1 am inclined to award tho foremost 
places to the Refraction colt and the Miss Whip filly, both ol 
whom receive the uilowuuce of (Jib. 
For the brace of mutches 1 should tako Dioniediu and 
William Rufus against Hitmen imd Orpheus. 
The Gratwicxk Stakes, of lOt) sovs. each, h ft, forthroe 
year olds ; ru le and u half. This rich prize would seem at the 
present moment a very open affair. Some of the clever ones 
are hacking Autocrat for tho St. Leger at a long price. Can 
he be sufficiently recovered horn the plight in which we saw 
liim at Epsoin to make an appearance here ? If so, ho must 
b>‘ dangerous ; but 1 am inclined to put usido his claim on 
this occasion. Bolurdo is not unlikely to become a greut 
favourite, though he must amend Ins Newmurket running to 
be the winner. But, what cannot John Scott do ? Moderute 
as he is, it will not surprise mo to see thu Boer in the van, 
the Olt) allowance being all in his favour. To him und Boiurdo 
I must therefore leave the race. 
The Stewards’ Cur over the T. Y. C. for horses of all 
ag**., and weights ranging fromOsl. 9lb. to 4*1. 81b., has an entry 
of 75. lie must he a hold man who would say lie can pick 
out the winner. I shall not utieinpt the tusk ; so much 
depending on the getting off. But, it strikes me that it is 
not beyond the scope of probability for old Ephesus 
to accomplish the task. The other names that seem 
formidable are Orinoco, Vaultress, Bribery, Nelly Hill, 
Autevci iu, and El Dorado. 
'i'i e 300 Boys. Sweepstakes, for four-vear olds, over 
the Qu in’s Plate Course. For thi* ‘ breather' I suppose 
thorn wi l he but one opinion — thu Australian clearing the 
way lor Cobnut. 
The Lavant Stakes. — T his raco may result in a struggle 
for victory between the Lord of the Isles, Kingstown, 
b rood, und Claret. And, as 1 have named, so 1 shall leave 
them. 
Wednesday. 
The Goodwood Stakes — T his bus been n capital betting 
race; m x-t ol tlie bookmakers having already gut round. The 
tie it is likely to be u go at one, und may include the names of 
R, itapfin, Adine or Coi k-Phe>i*nut, Nancy, Cobnut. Ethuhvolf 
Crusud'i, Exact, Exeter, Jacqueline or the Duchess of Lor- 
raine colt, Heapy. Jonathan Martin, John Bull, Newbold, 
Diana, Tros, und Mis* Tennyson. Heupy, Adine, or Tro- 
should furnish tho winner. It I must stand by one it shull be 
Thus ; and, us those who venture oa the hazardous sea of 
speculutinii ought uevor to be without a cock-boat, let mine bo 
Miss '!’• nnysou. 
The Great North and South op England Biennial 
Stakes; i lie return match to come oil' next year at the York 
August Meeting. No less than 142 youngsters are nominated 
lor this race. A. so many of them are dark, and engaged in 
other two-year old stukes, 1 must decline offering uu opinion 
as to tne result. 
The Duawino Room Stakes I must ns-ign to Acrobat. 
The 300 Sovs Swekpbiakes over the Craven Course 
would appaur to rest between Mursyus and Boiurdo. 
Thursday. 
The SUB6EX Stakp.s. — A s Grmculus Esuriens may prefer 
his retirement in Yo.k-hiro to a vi.it to Sussex, this little 
affair will piobably he pluced to the credit of Namur. 
Molecomd Stakes. — 1'lie winner of the Lavaut will 
have to Carry 7lb extra. Should the Lord of the Isles incur 
the penalty, William tho Third und Stroud may be first und 
second. 
The Sweepstakes op 50 sovs each, h ft, for three-yr- 
old*, rnile-and-hair : the distinguished names of Andover, 
King Tom, Meteora, and Bribery are found in the half-dozen 
nomination* for this race. A* King Tom will probably be an 
ab.rntec, Andover may frighten the others from the field, und 
be allowed to walk Out. 
Ilntisck M bmohial Stakes for two-year-olds. The 
winner, 1 Jaucy, is in John Scott’s stables though Rambling 
Kaiie may be close at hand. 
The Bextinck Memorial Stakes, for four-year-olds — 
Queen’s Plate Course. In this lot of;34 we again find the 
great Australian ; but, as he may deem the repetition of 
Tuesday's long gallop anything but agreeable, I must omit 
him and look to Filbert or Vanderdecken for the winner. 
Bentinck Memorial Stakes for three-year-old*. Tbi* 
race was won la-t year by Autocrat, who beat Dervish by u 
couple of lengths. A ronewul of the contest is sedulously whis- 
pered ; should it tako place, I shall look for a reversal ol 
tho issue. Quince, if a starter, will not bo very far behind 
either. 
Racing Stakes. For this there are liabilities that inav 
be incurred from previous running ; but I must look to 
Scythian or Quince to provide the winner. 
For the 100 Sovs. Sweep, one, mile, with six subs, I shall 
adhere to my friend Boor. 
Sweepstakes op 200 Sovs each, T.Y.C. Dirk Ilatter- 
aick, with a sturt; in his absence, Crown Pigeon. 
Sweepstakes of 200 Sovs., for two-year-old fillies. — 
Antoinette. 
The Cup. “ Who is to will the Goodwood Cup ?" may in 
a day or two be tho all-engrossing question. At the pre.-ent 
moment it would seem u certainty for Virago; but there is a 
lesthissness about some wlm have luld the odds on hor that 
might augur a doubt of her Blurting. If fit, and at the post, 
I see nothing that can have a chance against her. My voice 
must therefore he for Virago. In her default let mo turn 
innards the Hermit and Rataplan. 
Friday’s attractive list I must reserve till to morrow, when 
1 will add ail the news I may glean in the meantime. — Yours, 
Friday, July 21, 1854. Toby Peeps. 
Friday. 
P.S. — The Chesterfield Cup, by subscription of 15 
-ovs each, for bones of all ages, 2-year olds excepted. The 
winner of tho Goodwood Stakes, Goodwood Cup, or the 
Steward’s Cup, 71b. extra. Craven Course. Forty-two 
horses are handicapped for this race ; Kingston heading tin 
li-t, at 9*t, und Stonehenge bringing up the extreme rear 
with 5st. I think it may sufely bo assorted that Kingston 
will not try the venture this time. His stable-companion is 
in ut 7st. 131b.; and, ns St. Andrew bos just pulled off a 
good stake, there may he hope at last oven for the Indian 
Warrior. Miss Surah is favourably weighted at Csf. 81b ,* nor 
can Bribery compluin of her Ost. 131b. To these three I am 
iucliued to leave the race. 
Lord Derby certainly looks formidable with liis brace of 
nominations for the Rous Biennial ; but Mr. Greville’s 
Quince muy, after all, reap the golden fruit. 
Nassau Stakes. — The fillies for this race are really of 
sncli moderate Older that it would look like a mere canter for 
Virago, oven with the Gib. penalty. Miranda and Bianca 
mav strive for the 100 sovs given to the second. 
Tho Sweepstakes of 100 -ovs each, for four-year-olds, Cup 
Courso, Catherine Hayes — ulus! for fallen greatness ! — may 
bejust good enough to wm. 
The Nursery Stakes. — We have thirty- five young ones 
handicapped for this mile race. Lord of the Isles pays tho 
penalty of greutuess, real or assumed, nnd heads the weights 
ut 8st 71b; 1 cannot, therefore, become his partisan. Homily 
or Lady Alicia from the middle, and Moonshine, or the 
Miami filly from the light weights, appear to me more worthy 
of adherence. 
Iloupy has gone back to 12 to 1, and Diana lias taken his 
place, with uu upward look in tho bettiug for the Goodwood 
Stukes. Tros os before. The clouds about Virago for the 
Cup seem to bo blowing off. Toby Peeps.

SPORTING. 
BETTING AT MANCHESTER— Friday. 
There were scarcely a dozen subscribers present at the rooms to-day, 
and ut the closo wo had not a single transaction to record, 2 to 1 was 
offered ugst two for tho Goodwood stakes, viz., Heapy and Tros, and 
12 to 1 Bur Two. 5 to 1 would have been taken about Heapy, and 11 to 2 
would have been laid agst Tros. Diana was in bad odour, and Jonathan 
Martin quite friendless. Nnuoy, although backed in London, has few 
friends hero; Rataplan, with rite crushing weight of 9st 91b upon u four 
your old, is much inquired after, nnd was bucked last evening at 25 to 1 
to win a few hundreds. We have observed a disposition to lay agst Exact; 
in other respects the odds arc similar to thoso returned from TatteraalTs.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. 
FRIDAY Lords — Tho Earl of Aberdeen, in reply to Lord Harring- 
ton, stated that no instructions had been sent to Lord Westmoreland to 
refuse to allow the Poles to co-operate with the British troops. 
The Earl of Aberdeen laid before the House her Majesty's Message 
respecting the vote of credit for the additional expenses of the war, and 
moved that it be taken into consideration on Monday next. 
An address to the Crown for copies of reports lately presented to the 
Houses of Convocation wns agreed to, on the motion of the Bishop of 
London. 
several hills wore forwarded a stage, after which their Lordships ad- 
journed. 
Commons.— The House at the morning sitting, which lasted only half 
an hour, despatched 13 orders of tho day, besides motions and petitions, 
leave wns given to Mr. Fltzroy to introduce two Government bills which 
were brought in and rend a first time. 
In the evening. 
The Chancellor of the Exchequer brought down a Message from the 
Crown to the effect tliut her Majesty, deeming it expedient to provide 
for any additional expenco that may arise in consequence of the war, 
nnd relying upon the loyalty, zeal, and affection of her faithful Commons, 
trusted that they will make provision accordingly. 
On the question that tho message be relerrcd to a Committee of 
Supply, 
Mr. Disraeli expressed a hope that, when the Message was taken into 
consideration on Monday, her Majesty's Government would be ablo to 
give an assurance that, in the present state of affairs, thero would be an 
autumnal session of Parliament 
The House then proceeded to consider tho Bribery, &c., Bill as amen- 
ded, in committee. 
Some discussion ensued, when, with tho assent of Lord J. Russell, it 
was agreed that tlie bill should bo recommi ted, nnd the House accor- 
dingly resolved itself into a committee, where all the clauses of the bill 
underwent a futlier revision. 
An amendment of tlie 10th clause, moved by Sir F. Kelly, declaring 
payment for chairing, bands of music, flags, banners, &c., to be illegal, 
wns carried on a division by 106 to 57. 
In the 24th clause, a discretion wns given to the judge to reduce the 
penalty in the absence of corrupt or improper Intention, and it was de- 
clared that no expenses relating to the registration of electors, and no 
subscriptions or contributions bona fide mado for any public or charitable 
purpose, shall be deemed election expenses within the act. This proviso 
was long and warmly debated; but was ultimately carried, on a division, 
by 234 to 16. 
Mr V. *mith moved to omit clause 31, containing the declaration to 
be made by candidates and member* ; but the proposition was rejected, 
und the cluuse sustuined by 128 to 120. 
Lord J Russell gave notice of his Intention to propose two clauses, 
one allowing travelling expenses, nnd tho other prohibiting altogether 
refreshments and refreshment tickets. 
The Chairman was allowed to report progress. 
Lord J. Russell then moved that the House resume the consideration 
of the bill in committee on Saturday ut 12 o'clock. 
The House divided upon Lord J. Russell's motion, which was carried 
by 132 to 51. 
The other orders of tho day were now entered upon, and, having been 
disposed of, tlie House adjourned at 10 minutes past 2 o'clock. 
SATURDAY.— Commons.— Borough Rates Bill read a third time, and 
passed. 
On the motion for the third rending, the Sale of Beer, &c., Bill, Mr. 
Henry Berkeley objected to the bill as interfering with the enjoyments 
of the poorer classes on Sundays, as it would deprive them of obtaining 
refreshment after one o'clock. That which was sin in the poor man w us 
virtue in others, or why were the London clubs and large hotels at 
Richmond, Blackwall, and Greenwich, not closed with the rural tavern* 
on Sundays This one-sided legislation was a disgrace to Parliament; 
it was mainly directed against tlie excursion trains, the travellers by 
which were not treated ns travellers, according to tlie statue, and thus 
by this bill they would be unable to obtain refreshment in the country. 
Mr. Wilson Patten said the bill dealt equally with the rich and tho 
poor, and the time for opening public houses on Sundays had been 
extended expressly to meet the case of excursion trains. 
After some observations from Mr. L. Heyworth and Lord D. Stuart, 
Mr. W. J. Fox, complained that if this bill passed, the present 
ruling of tho Police Courts would shut out passengers by excursion 
trains from obtaining refreshments in the middle of tlie day on Sundays. 
Mr. Henley said it was quite ridiculous and absurd to say that a 
passenger by an excursion tiain was not a traveller. If he was not, ho 
could not tell w hat the term traveller meant. 
The bill was then read a third time and pussed. 
The Reformatory Schools (Scotland) Bill, Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction 
Bill, Stock in Trade Exemption Bill, Inclosure of Lands Bill, Commou, 
\c„ Rights (Ordnance) Bill, und the Friendly Societies Continuanco 
Bill, were all read u third time and pussed. 
On the motion for the third reading of the Medical Graduates (Ireland 
and Scotlund) Bill, ...... , _ 
Sir. E. Lockart moved that the bill be read a third time this day three 
months. 
Mr. Crauford seconded the amendment. 
After a brief conversation, 
Lord J. Russell approved of the bill, but at the same time he though- 
it would be better to postpone its discussion until Wednesday next, when 
Ills noblo friend at the head of the Home Department would be in his 
place. Ho therefore moved the adjournment of the debate accordingly, 
The house divided, when there appeared — 
For the adjournment 82 
Against it... 43 
Majority —39 
The debate was then adjourned until Wednesday next. 
Tlie Spirits (Ireland) Bill, and Burials beyond tho Metropolis Bill, were 
read a third time and passed. 
Bribery Bill. Tho committee on this bill was then resumed. 
The original bill having been sot through. 
Lord J. Russell moved the insertion of the following clause, viz. 
“ And whereas doubts have arisen os to whether the payment of the ex- 
penses of conveying voters to and from the poll, as also the giving of 
refreshment to voters on the day of nomination or day of polling, be or 
be not according to law, and it is expedient that such doubts should be 
removed, and Hint the law should be settled in these particulars, be It 
declared and enacted, ihat from and after the passing of this act, itshall 
be lawful for any candidate or other person, subject to the provisions of
