TO TEI IDiroi OT THE TITOISM.

Sta,—With five items each day, and nearly 1,0001.
added to them, the three days' meeting at Newton.in-the-
Willows is entitled to every respect, and the Greet Newton
Handicap, one mile and a half, will bring out as good afield
as the principal item at more important meetings, there
being but little to choose between the forty-six handicapped.
The distance will suit both Mr. Copeland'e—Thorntull,
4 yrs, Cat 111 b, and Woman in Black, 3 yre, dat 111 h, the
young one, if we may believe in her spin previous to the
Oaks, haring the best of the weights. Archduchess, 3 yr%
6.t Mb, won the Queen's Plate at Manchester in • common
canter; and should she prove the Simon Pun of J. Osbcase,
The Alderman will have something to beat. The Can.
modem, 3 yrs, Est 121 b, runs well at home, bat hie
defeat by Reymed at Ascot, coupled with the
latter's moderate exhibition with St. Clarence, rya very
little for his public doings. Donatl, 3 yrs, Est Mb, and
Brown Holland, 8 yrs, est 61b, will be bard to beet at their
weights, the latter emecially If in a quiet humour, as he was
in front for quite this (Minna in the Ascot Stakes. Women
in Black, Archduchess, and Brown Holland, should supply
the winner, and the former being In receipt of Bib from
Archduehme it might just enable her to pull through. In
the Ilikerfield Handicap, half a mile, Jack Spprrmmg has but a
1114.331111ke his double victor/ at ester, making
hie weight Tat 121 b., seder Alien, yrs, filet 21b, is
palled out, he may add another to the score—the Trial
Handicap, one mile and a quarter, looking a good thing for
hint also, in the probable absence of Kestrel and Little
Agnes. The Golbarne Perk Stakes, for 2-yr-olda, halt a
mile, rest. between two old opponents, Lady Falconer and
Spicebox who are both penalised 616 ; but the filly having
so recenkproved her superiority, Jo must hare the pre-
ference. he Gold Cup, two miles, has been most exten-
sively patroeised by J. Oeborne, and he I. not
likely to snake • great mistake. Little Agnes having
a 10tb penalty, making her weight est 12b, and Arch-
duchess being engaged in the Gold Cup the first day, Rasp-
I berry, 3 yrs, betelb, may be the intended, as the loner distance
may cause her to turn the tables upon Meg Menthes, 3 yrs,
Est, for the Union Cup defeat at Manchester. J. Oaltoree's,
hewer*, will find something to beat in Hamlet, 6 yrs, est
71b, whether he
_places his faith in Raspberry or Arch-
duehesa. In the ialters' Plate, one mile and • quarter, lb*
latter has received very favourable treatment, es has also
Master Begot, 6 yrs, Bat 21b, and the pair are decidedly the
best-looking of the lot handicapped. Little Agnes has a.6lb
penalty in the South Lancashire Tradeemens' Plate, but le
still meeting Woman in Black on even better terms than at
Manchester, and she bids fair to do Osborne good service
again, for there is nothing so formidable-looking in the
handicap at present although previous running may bring
something out for this, am well as the other events in the
Pl%reme.
little meeting at Hemmen commences on Wednesday
with the Innkeepers' Plate, for which Chanters, 4 yrs,
7el 81b, ought to beat both Mushroom, 3 yrs, eel 111 b, and
Mountain Dew, 4 yrs, Set, over the diatutoe, Mushroom
being second beet on paper. Seclusion having paid forfeit
fir the Claremont titans, Contadina hes nothing whatever
to beat; and I might almost say the same of Fright for the
Surrey and Middlesex Stave, but for the uncertain running,
his Acme ptrformanees making him appear to have quite •
stone the bestof the weights. The Stand Plate has thirteen
nibs, and the Mutineer, from bis forward position in the
Royal Hunt Cup, ought to be somewhere near the
mark with nearly the feather weight. The Visitors'
Plate, one mile, exhibits Sentinel, 6 yrs, est 121 b, as
' thrown in, and Yorkshire Mira, 3 yrs, Est 12lb,
hie but little to oomplain of, looking at her Harpenden vic-
tory. Woodburn ran co forward in the Royal Hunt Cup
that he mutt surely carry off the Richmond Plate, if able to
beat Oriands ; Wild Ron could run away with the
Queen's Plate were her party inclined to pert with her for the
stipulated 600 son.; but she might prove an absentee, when
Mountain Nut's chance will be one of the best, with Anot a
doubtful stayer. The Bushy and Railway Selling Plates
both have Breubilda engaged, and she ought to carry off ens
of them.—l am, &a. METEOR.
