the ground, he might scare away all opposition. But I am 
inclined to fancy Rambling Katie. 
Bedfordshire Stakes. — An entry of twenty-eight, but as 
the forfeits have yet to be declared. I shall content myself 
by saying that I like the appearance of Perfidious, Miss 
Bolton, and the Jennnla filly. 
Leicester also takes Wednesday and Thursday for its 
festival. 
Leicestershire Handicap. Mile and half. — Lurley, if 
she goes, ought to be near winning. 
Two-Year-Old Stakes. — Mrs. Rigby or Pole Star. 
The Scurry Handicap. — Game Chicken. 
Manchester Autumn will occupy Thursday and Friday. 
Wilton Handicap.— This, the principal item of the meet- 
ing, has thirty -one subs., but the acceptances have not yet 
reached me. Game Lad, King of Trumps, and Itch, appear 
to me have none the worst of the weights, and may possibly 
figure in the race. 
Chesterfield Handicap for two-year-olds. One mile. — 
Despite the weight, I am inclined to go for Cossey. 
The Northern Metropolitan Handicap. — There is an 
entry of twenty-nine for this mile-aud-quarter spin, with a 
contingent penalty of 71b. for the winner of the Wilton 
Handicap. Guicowar, Maid of Team Valley, and Lancashire 
Lass, appear to me likely to be well up at the finish. 
On the other races I can offer no opinion, as the weights 
have yet to be published. Yours, 
Friday, 15th Sept., 1854. Toby Peeps.

At eleven o'clock business was resumed at the Rooms, but most of tho 
accounts in the St Leger stand over to be settled at Tnttersall's on 
Monday. The Knight of St George did good suit and service to '* the 
ring." The racing commenced at two o'clock, and terminated soon

Won very cleverly by a length. Three lengths between the second 
and third, Scythian was fourth, Midsummer flftli, Apollonius sixth, and 
Tros seventh. Neville pulled up, and did not pass the post. The result 
of the race gave rise to a scene of the greatest uproar and confusion. 
John Scott, amidst a storm of groans and hisses, was hustled In every 
direction, and his party had to fight their way through tho crowd to 
rescue him from the Lynch law with which his exasperated assailants 
threatened him. 
Great praise is due to Harry Broome for the protection which he 
promptly and effectually afforded him. 
Whether Acrobat could have won the 8t. Leger or not, is a problem 
we are not prepared to solve. An explanation will now, doubtless, pro- 
ceed from the proper quarter. Fortunately, Lord Derby had left the 
course before the scene took place.

Tho “ Cup," which was won to-day by Mr. Howard's extraordinary 
inaro Virago, is a splendid piece of plate, valued ut 300 guineas. Tho 
horses introduced into tho group of figures are alter models by tho well- 
known artist Mr. Cottorlll; tho figures and accessories are by Mr. 
Spencer. It was completed at Messrs. Garrard’s manufactory, Pantun- 
s tree t, llaymarket, and Is an admirable specimen of British tusto and 
art. There are four statuettes, two being equestrian, and two on foot. 
Tho principal equestrian figure represents tho eolubratod Queon Phi- 
lippa, wife of Edward 111., whilst riding through the ranks of tho 
English army, immediately before tho commencement of tho buttlo of 
Nevillo's-cross, in tho county of Durham, October 17, 1347. Tho battlo 
was contested with great bravery on both sides, and many of tho inci- 
dents connected with it are rccordod by Froissart, the historian of tho 
days of chivalry. 
Although tlie attendance of general company wait comparatively small 
on this, "Tho Cup l)oy," yot several thousands of persons wero on tho 
Course, anil the business of thu meeting was sustained with much In- 
terest and an unflagging spirit to its close. In fact, a more brilliant 
meeting, in point of sport and weather, Doncaster hits seldom if over 
known.
