Sale of a Race Horse. — On Friday last Mr. Munford 
sold, in the market place, Chelmsford, the racing mare, Miss 
Goldschmidt, which had been entered for two of the stakes 
at our late races, but was prevented from running by the 
sheriff taking her in execution. Several sporting gentlemen 
were present, and the first bid was 10 guineas ; the bidding 
proceeded rather slowly till 28^ guineas were offered, at which
