for the Derby. The Jealous One, with no advantage of weight, 
Won the Chatsworth Stakes, in a style that gives promise we 
shall hear of her again before the season is over In the 
Chesterfield Stakes, K*yaw*y mode ample amends for the 
disappointment at York, and obviated her noble owner s m- 
iij tended donation, by acquiring the fifty sovs for herself. 
The sport at Lincoln and other places Ifl still in progress ; 
but Jetty Trofi's has been telegraphed as the winner of the 
Lincolnshire Handicap, and Jack Sheppard has added to his 
exploits by carrying off tho Granby Stake*- 
llic weights foi' the two great autumnal handicaps are now 
fairly before tho world, and will no doubt occasion much 
difference of opinion. In the Crosarewifcch, Rataplan holds 
the unprofitable post of honour at 9st 71b, while Rodo-incli 
Stands alone in the ignoble position of tho extreme rear — -the 
i ireciae place lie occupies in the Cambridgeshire — at 4at 71b. 
’his colt, of high lineage, was a competitor fov the Derby 
and 2,000 Guineas ; ho is treated now, and perhaps de- 
servedly so, os the most arrant of impostors. Virago and 
Andover are at the same weight, 8st 131b, and with but small 
chance of winning. Many years may elapse before a three- 
yr-old can be found to excel Fapgh-a-Ballagh’e performance 
nt Sat. Little David, the victor of the Cambridgeshire, has 
to concede 01b to Haco, the winner of the race lust year, 
their weights being 8st 101b and 8st 41b. The Trapper is 
held in high estimation by the handicapper, as he 
bus to give two or three of his probable opponents for 
the St Loger more than half a stone. Old Noll, too, 
at 8st, fs placed in a situation that his previous running 
would scarcely warrant. There must be some terror even 
in a name. The foreigners, Voyagcur, Stern, and Scherz, 
are certainly not treated with the tender allowance that is 
provided for them in the conditions of “The Goodwood Cup.’ 
Ompo has to give the winner of the Oaks 31bs, Mincemeat 
being weighted at 7st 101b ; while El Dorado, who ran the 
favourite for the St. Loger to three-quarters of a length in 
the “ Gratwioke,” has Get 71b; Coomburland Statheamon is 
honoured with 7st 121b, ogat Balrownie's 8st lib. Nancy, at 
7st, can have no cause of complaint; an opportunity is now 
afforded her of retrieving her early fame. Poodle is turned 
loose with Cat 121b. But, among the light weights, we con- 
sider Jujube, Gamelod, Barrel, Tros, Caliph, aud the Star ol 
Surrey to be most favourably in. St. Andrew, La Belle, 
Jacqueline, Ammonia, Exact, and Rob-i-Noor, also appear to 
be leniently treated. Nabob, Little Hairy, Adme, Balrowme, 
and Typee have none the worst of the top weights. Musco- 
vite, however, at 8st 31b, who is ever about to do a good 
thing, but always delays the performance, has been made the 
favourite at 80 to I. 
The llaudioap for the Houghton Meeting seems to be the 
counterpart of that for the Second OctoLer; but, as the 
weights were not published till yesterday, sufficient time lifts 
jiardly been afforded us to examine thorn attentively. We 
pli all enter on tho merits of both in our next. 
The little that has been done on tho Leger has effected no 
variation in the betting. Boiardo does not appear over firm 
in his position ; aud many venture to assert that lie will be 
unable to maintain it many days longer. The Trapper has 
au upward look, but there are whispers abroad that the 
owners are not yet on. Midsummer is not without friends, 
and Scythia ti, despite his defeat at York, still finds supporters 
nt an outside price. The change of trainers must, indeed, 
work wonders to enable him to snatch the coveted prize. 
Acrobat seems to be waiting on fortune ; should his friend 
Boiardo decline in estimation, he may be expected to come 
with a rush. There are some who still “ hope against hope" 
in regard to Dervish, and look to see him emerge from the 
obscurity that now enshrouds him. To all preseut appear- 
ance the field is likely to be a very limited one. 
Tho Warwick Meeting commences on Tuesday, aud its list 
of races is nowise inferior to those of former years, and must 
prove attractive to all who are within reach of this fumed 
Bporting place. The Leamington Stakes, even in these dull 
times, must prove a good betting race, aud, from the excel- 
lence of the handicap, ought to furnish a large field. Lurley 
and Haco may here have a chance of distinguishing them- 
selves. Tho Warwick Cup, tho County Stakes, and indeed 
all tho events marked out for decision, have large entries, 
aud a capital gathering may confidently be anticipated. 
Warwick, from its close proximity to tho Doncaster meetiug, 
was for a time remarkable for the sudden and heavy blows 
dealt out against one or more of the favourites for the St. 
Leger. The custom, however, has of late fullen into desue- 
tude ; but, should any unexpected change take place in the 
betting, it is more than probable that the movement will be 
made on Tuesday or Wednesday next. 
The well-known Hermit is announced for sale by private 
contract —the price, 1,500 gs ; aud the quite-forgotten Heart- 
Breaker, by Don John, who made some figure iu the betting 
fojn&e Derby and Leger three years ago, is tn ho disposed of 
bjj public auction at Doncaster, on tl^o I4th, by Messrs 
Tattersall. 
In addition to Warwick, meetings will be held in the course 
of tho week at Cheadle, Bungay, Weymouth, Lichfield, 
Rochester aud Chatham, and Marlborough— not forgettiug 
the Western Meeting iu bouuie Scotlaud. 
Important to Farmers. — A question having arisen in 
several dietriots of South Wales as to the liability of farmers 
to pay duty upon ridiug-horses, fhe commissioners, iu order 
to save trouble aud avoid appeals, directed the following 
queries to be put to the Board of Inland Revenue : — First, 
whether any farmer keeping several horses, say four, aud 
consequently riding, himself or family, one or more of such 
horses to fairs, markets, worship, &c. (such horses at other 
times being kept for farming purposes onlyl, would be liable 
to any, and what duty ! Secondly, whether such person 
keeping one horse only fov his uaUiug, apd occasionally hiip- 
eelf or family riding such huy-ap, \voi\ld be liable, and, if 
no, to what duty i Tho uqswevs returned by the board were, 
that only one horse is entitled to bo kept for the purposes 
before mentioned, at the duty of 10s. Gd-. and if other 
horses are ridden by the farmer or his family they are 
liable, according to height, to the duty of £1 Is. or 10s. 
Gd. If ouehoioO only bo kept then the duty of 10a. Gil is 
payable. 
Royal Artillery. — Sixty very fiue horses have arrived in 
the garrison at Woolwich. These superior animals, for field- 
battery service, were purchased by Lieuteuaut-Colonel Wing- 
field, many of thorn at Horncastle aud other large horse- 
— fid/y.Ju Yorkshire. The demand for homes for military 
r LKiLsi# very great at present, and there were a considerable 
rvrnM^bq^ot buyers for foreign governments at the reoeut 
ffijlqJeSthltfair. which rendered it difficult to obtain good 
the British artillery and cavalry services, except 
— * ptipa.

TATTERSALL’S.— Monday. 
Paying and receiving on the recent events at York was the principal 
feature of business. Betting was remarkably limited. The advance- 
ment of the St. Leger favourite, Boiardo, to C to 4, taken to upwards of 
£100, was tho only important change — 7 to 4 was, however, obtainable 
at the close. Acrobat and The Trapper were frequently inquired after, 
and a few investments were made at 6 and 7 to 1 about each, but 
Acrobat had evidently “ the call." Scythian rose in favour, and some 
additional confidence was placed in Midsummer. Hannibal was backed 
for a poney at 40 to 1. Further comment is unnecessary.

Thursday. 
Many members having proceeded from Derby to the meeting at 
Lincoln, the room was thinly attended, and very little business was 
transacted 
The principal bets were in reference to tho St. Leger. At the com- 
mencement 200 to 100 was laid agst Boiardo, the layer offering to go on 
to some money, or to take 5 to 2. At this point the favourite stood, 
until some quarter of an hour after the layer had left the room, when 
two or three of the favourite's adherents took counsel together, and 
checked for the time the 2 to 1 movement, by investing, in the aggre- 
gate, about £150, at 7 to 4. 
In the course of tho afternoon The Trapper advanced to 5 to 1 
(taken), and a strong disposition was manifested to back Midsummer. 
7 to 1 was taken, to a small sum, about Acrobat; 20 to 1, laid to £75, 
agst Scythian; and 1000 to 30 agst HannibaL 
Tho betting on tho other events named below was on a very limited

MANCHESTER.— Tuesday. 
The attractions of Derby and Eccles engrossed the attention of the 
speculators, who remained home all the early part of the day. For the 
Lvipnington Stakes, Great Yorkshire Handicap, and St. Leger, betting 
was limited, and the investments to trifling amounts.

DERBY RACES. 
Upon tho present occasion (tie programme contained five races for 
each day, tho Grand Stand StA^s, u Produce Stakes, the Tradesman's 
Plate, the Derwent Stakes, being arranged for Tuesday, and the follow- 
iug fixed for Wednesday: — The Innkeeper's Stake, tho Chatsworth 
Stakes, the Chesterfield Stakes, the Selling Stakes, uud the Sudbury 
Stakes (a new race). The \\eights for the Tradesman’s Plato have been 
for some time before the public, but we believe Imt little money was 
invested upon it until last >veek, it being presumed that the York meet- 
ing would furnish the truest criterion to the running here. On the 
first appearance of the imposts, Orestes, Little Davie, and Pumisceatone, 
were " funded " by the knowing ones. The Northampton joust brought 
fresh horses lutq (he market, upd Newbold and Amalgamation found 
friends at shuyt odds. Subsequently, on the receipt of intelligence 
from York, that Grand Inquisitor, the gallant winner of the Ebor 
Handicap, would put in appearance at Derby, this horse was freely 
supported, and on Monday evening, we understand, he was backed at 
oven against tho field. 
The weather was glorious pp Monday, and it was with a feeling of 
certainty that tho race-going comm\mity talked of their being favoured 
with a fine day on the morrow. The only thing which acted as a check 
upon the indulgence of too sungumvly formed expectation was the 
limited arrival of horses upon the first-named day, the following being 
the only animals stabled here op Monday night: — Sister to Bolton, 
Falcon, Little Tom, Orson, Ostrogoth, St. Clare, Brother to Gray 
Tommy. Little Fawn, Morning star, Newbold, Pumiscestone, Little 
Davie, Amalgamation, Czarina, Pyrrhus, Kattinka, Vivid, Communist, 
Jealous One. Integrity, c by Orlando ; May Day’s dam, Blakeley, Fake- 
uway. c by Cothcrstone ; Polydora, Maid of Cadiz, Mrs. Rigby, and Le 
Fripun. Eurly on Tuesday morning, however, the rails brought acces- 
sories, ami the total realised something like the expected number. 
Early in the morning of Tuesday the town appeared unusually astir, 
hundreds of persona entering it by vail and by road, to witness “ the 
first day's running at Derby races.” The race-ground was in admirable 
order, and the arrangements betokened that every core had been taken 
by the clerk of the course and the committeo to render them adapted 
to the requirement of the occasion. 
Among others on the Grand Stand, we noticed the Earl of Chester- 
field, Countess of Chesterfield and party, Earl of Harrington, Countess 
of Harrington, Viscount Petersham, Lady Geraldine Stanhope, Lord 
Wilton, Lord Maidstone, Lord Stanhope, Sir W. Codrington, Captain 
Little, Captain Storey, Captain Marslandi H. Forrester. Esq., — Drinkal i

BettiDg — 0 to 4 on the field, 2 to 1 agst Falcon, 3 to 1 agst Sister lo 
Bolton, 3 to 1 agst Le Juif, aud 5 to 1 agst Little Tom. A beautiful 
start was effected, Little Tom jumping off with the lend, closely fo|. 
lowed by Le Juif, Uncle, and Liberty, and the others laying close up 
At the first turn Le Juif went in front, and maintained the lead to th e 
back of the course, where it was taken up by Little Tom, the oilier 
horses being still in close attendance. No change occurred for a short 
distance in the straight run in ; but nt length Falcon drew forward, 
and, after a splendid set-to with little Tom, won cleverly by a length 
Liberty a good third. The winner was put up by auction after tho 
race by Mr. E. Smith, and knocked down to Mr. Wood, of London, for 
175 guineas, seventy-five of which go to the race fund. 
A Produce Stakes of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 50 added. One mile and 4

The following were drawn ; — The Assaycr, b f by Orlando, Bright 
May, the Field Marshal, Thessalian, The Medal, Jack Peck (lato 
Julius Ciesar), and Orson. 
This was reduced to a match between Ostrogoth and St Clair. Tho 
former was the favourite at 5 to 4 (taken freely). St. Clair made the 
running, keeping about three lengths in advance of the favourite to the 
distance, where Ostrogoth made his effort, but failed to reach St. Clair, 
who ran in a clever winner by two lengths. 
The Tradesmen's Plate of 100 sovs, added to a Handicap of 15 sovs each, 
10 ft and 5 only if declared. Three horses to start, ortho public

the race, a less number than had been expected. 
Betting — 2 to 1 agst Amalgamation, 3 to 1 agst Little Davie, 3 to I 
agst Pumicestone, 3 to 1 agst Newbold, and 5 to 1 agst Merry Monk 
aud Morning Star. Little Davie jumped away just after reaching the 
post before the other horses wore in readiness, but was pulled back 
after going a few yards. The six then settled quietly into their place-, 
and got off in a very compact form. Morning Star and Amalgamation 
made alternate running till reaching the bottom of the course tho 
second time round, waited upon by Pumicestone and Newbold, Littlo 
Davie, who on passing the stand occupied the third position, lying off. 
As they entered the straight run in, Morning Star was in trouble, and 
simultaneously Merry Monk dropped into the rear and took no ftirther 
part in the race. At the distance Little Davie, who had been gradually 
rearing his horses at the back of the course, took the lead, and after an 
exciting race with Pumicestone ran in a clever winner by two lengths, 
the same distance between second and third, tho favourite a bad fourth, 
and the other two following at wide intervals.
