Liverpool. — During the present festive week, the Royal 
Harwich Yacht Club has been worthily represented, in the 
Mersey, by the schooner-yacht Vice-Commodore Arcedeckne, 
one of whose boats was pulled in the match for £6 against 
that of the schooner-yacht Ros ilind, T. Birchall, Esq., owner. 
Though starting at a moment’s notice, and unaccustomed to 
the river, the Novice only lost the match by barely three 
Beconds. The “ Lion Rampant " had therefore no reason to 
drop his tail from its usual erect position. 
Thursday. — The Cup, value £30, was won by Mr. Dunn’s 
Priest e s, beating Electric and Spirit.

nations in the caverns and castle walks, and ruins, with 
variegated lamps, and a grand display of fireworks. The 
following are the names of the players : — England : W.

A. Clarke, Bickley, C. Tinley. Dmllcy ; Aston, Armitage,

Cricket Field Disaster.— On the evening of the 23rd iust., 
Mr. C. Bradbury, a member of the Binstcr Cricket Club, 
broke his left wrist by a fall on the cricket field. 
RACING. 
" On the green, green turf.” 
Mr. Editor, — The Knavesmire has been the scene of some 
stirring events. Old Ebor maintains her racing fame. Many 
of the best horses in training have taken part in the various 
contests, and something like thirty races in three days ought 
to satisfy the most craving appetite. In fact, there was a 
perfect feast of running, and the sport may, on the whole, be 
pronounced first-rate. Among the remarkable circumstances 
may be mentioned the defeat of the apparently invincible 
Virago, by Ellermire, for the County Plate. But this ought 
not to affect the reputation of the fair Virago, as many of the 
speediest animals will scarcely get into their full Btride in the 
short space of five furlongs. Captain Harcourt is fortunate 
in having two such clever youugBters as the Ellerdale 
and Ellerdale’ s dam fillies. The latter, now named Dame 
Judith, won the Filly Sapling Stakes, and was second for the 
Gimcrack. She is entered for next year's Oaks, but Eller- 
mire is not. Nettle, a filly by Sweetmeat out of Wasp, also 
distinguished herself by beating a good field. Jack Sheppard 
has improved, and will be heard of hereafter. Rifleman's 
performance, though good, was hardly up to the high 
estimation that had been formed of him. Rambling Katie 
did a good thing in bagging the “ Black Duck, - ’ if she never 
accomplishes another. Neither Flatterer nor Saraband sus- 
tained their previous high character. Bonnie Morn did not greet 
us with his presence, and Graiculus Esuriens, or “ Gracious 
Eavcns," as some of the outsiders will have it, was still an 
absentee. Nevertheless, the cunning little Greek contrives 
to keep his place as first favourite for the Derby. Having 
thus taken a hasty survey of the doings of the juveniles, let 
us turn towards their elders. It was fully expected that 
York would throw some light on the coming Sdlinger, but 
the sun had already cleared the horizon on the previous 
Monday. The knell of the luckless King Tom had scarcely 
sounded, Dervish following as chief mourner, when the 
anxious turfites, in quest of a fresh favourite, were promptly 
presented with the almost forgotten Boiardo. Once made 
acquainted with his merits, the upward tendency was rapid. 
Bookmakers would have thanked you to take 30 to 1 last 
week— Boiardo's present price is 5 to 2. Acrobat has been 
making a slow but steady advance to the fore, and is not 
unlikely to maintain his ground, while the chances of several 
others who have received support at long shots may now be 
considered as hopeless. 
On referring to my last letter, I find that I sent you more 
winners than losers for York. I gave you Meteora, who was 
then in little favour, for the North and South Biennial ; and 
the only two I mentioned for the Great Yorkshire were 
Acrobat and Ivan — first and second, as I named them. The 
result of the Ebor Handicap proves the disadvantage one 
labours under in making a selection so long before the time, 
or I should never have coupled Heapy with Tros; the 
unmistakeable demonstration in favour of his stable com- 
panion, Grand Inquisitor, had not then been made. My 
opinion of Tros was, however, borne out by that of the ring, 
who created him, at one time, a better favourite than his suc- 
cessful rival. 
A word or two anent Chelmsford and Derby. 
The Marks Hall Stakes, I fancy, will be won by St. Faith. 
The Members’ Plate, John o’ Bruges. 
Brentwood Stakes, Guitar. 
The Chelmsford Handicap, Miss Bolton — Nutpecker. 
Cup Stakes, Rackapelt. 
Derby presents a very good list of sport for its two days’ 
meeting. I have but time to glance at the principal events. 
Produce Stakes. — My choice must be Orson or St. Clair. 
The Tradesmen's Plate shows a capital acceptance of 
twenty-six ; Nancy, however, has since paid forfeit. Grand 
Inquisitor is among the lot, but his showing may be doubtful. 
Should he appear at the post he ought to be near winning, 
even with his 71b. penalty. But I am inclined to select the 
best of Dawson's lot, probably Amalgamation, and the repre- 
sentative of Taylor's stable, Pumicestone or Jacqueline. 
Chatsworth Stakes. — I may be near the mark with 
Calot or Le Juif.
