LORD STAMFORD'S Safe.—lt was announced that
this nobleman's bons were to be sold at Newmarket on
Thursday last " without reserve." We now ascertain that
Carobuscen and Archimedes, tegetber with all than homes
bid for by Mr. Ten Smock, Mr. T. Wsdlow, and Mr. H. J.
t, were bought is for Lord Stamford. In fact,
the actual realisation of the eels was only 9,410 guiseu, or
about one-third of the whole nominal amount. Much semen-
Lion has been created in racing circles by the so-called
" repurchase."—" Argus," of the Post says :—" L rem-
meatier upon such a ode one is placed hi rattier a delicate
ashion ; for great surprise has been evinced at Lord Stam-
ford having repurchased such • number of lots, after
Messrs. Tatterarll had given out that the male was
dearly without reserve. It is due, therefore, to
those gentlemen, more especially to Mr. Tattersall
himself, to state that no 000 was more astonished than
himself to learn that his lordship bad purehaved so many
of the lots that had been knocked down to others, and
that be imagined every bid he took to have been a genuine
one. Moreover, be will not be made responsible for any
subsequent arrangement into which his noble client en-
tered, as it was impossible for him afterward, to interfere
in any shape. That Lord Stamford had great cause for
annoyance by the way things went on in his stable, there
can be no denying ; and I have reason for thinking that he
was urged to this step by having bawd that partite were
doing all in their power to injure hie sale, for reasons best
known to themselves. However, I trust the precedent
may not be followed on similar occasioes, as it would be so
injurious both to vender and purchaser."
