have at length made in their arrangsmests on the Heath, the
talents were certain to muster in force at the late tosedag
for the demote reason that there was nothing elm to wean:
their thus; but other inducements besides these werTe r-neg
oat to the racing world, the congruent* issued hayloft been
more ketenses than any put Coat niece the attempt to im-
prove the meeting was made by the establithmeat of the tri-
ennials, es the principal items were not, as

me at the latter part of the season, • ' by there being
only me decided Oyer in each ; and rase a sound lot of ani-
mals se Compromise, Star of the East, Leontes, Ancient
Briton, Carries the Second, and Mee more, have
not cants fed the last of a triennial for many a day.
There is now no question that the First October Meeting
L as tally qualified to occupy three days se the Houghton is
six; and seeing that the public money amounts to 3661. only,
1001. of which la given by the railway company, and 1061. by

cipand in the final struggle finishing so close together that
it was impossible for anybody but the judge to assign them
postdate. The running of Penalty and Montebello was as
true am we as possibly expect over • abort coarse, for the
old horse was meeting Penalty at precisely racing
weights at Goodwood when he had a heed the
beet of it, In the Stewards' Cup ; and although he
was hire conceding leas weight, he had • good
6lb the worst of it, allowing for the average improvement of
• three-year-old from July to September, which was just
sufficient to reeks the length an/ a half difference in their
positions. They are both in the Cambeidgeshfre ; but I can-
not yet see the chant* of Penalty, and it in not Impossible for
Montebello to got. the best of her theoe, se the three furlongs
longer distance is all in favour of the older animal, for if we
take the weight for age between a three and a six year old
over LS Cambridgeshire distance in October, Montebello will
be fond with a good 6lb the advantage, supposing he can
stay se fir, be only giving 1616 for three years ; but with
North Lincola in his Goodwood form be should bold the two
eels, considelag that be meets Penalty on I lib better terms
than when he finished • hied behind her in the Stewards'
Cep, and be will take some beating, although the
OW is net In his favour. Yet we must not
forget Montebello could always finish well over
a seers course, and as he stayed Acmes the Flat on
Thursday his owner may be induced to start him for such •
prise, as, if he 0011/11 only get s piece' it would be • fitting
wind-up to a net inglorious career. The only other nose-
worthy incidents In connexion with the handicaps were the
igneininious defeats of the Roman Candle, which have taken
all the shine out of his Csearewitch prospects, and the ex-
traordinary performance of Adman with get over half a mile,
which serves to make oat his spring defeat of North Lincoln
anything but • " finks;" and if Anodes can give him as
much weight aswas maned before her defeat in the One
Theamad Guinan (and the manner in which her party
lumped doe at ouch estiangent odds makes It a certainty
thethonght she could beat him e),
_she is more of
e "good thing" for the CosnWm shire than North
Lbooln, who oonoedes 231 b to her. The race with Star
of the But and Compromise says bat little for or
against the Cesarewitch prospects of either, as it Is
well Mown the Bier is only • good bores when it
plasm' biro, and it is no disgrace for Compromise to suffer
detest from him at even weight* when he ia in a wing
human ; neither don it appear to me that Independence's
Qnsen's Plate triumph should create a furore in his favour,
as Storks was anything but up to the mark, and dared not
make his own pace, Ito that It was only for the young one
en wait till the last and then make use of hie turn of speed.
The fact of Mmonaise being so enmity defeated by The Rover
is quite sufficient to phut her out of the Cambridgeshire, and
few seemed stile to amount for it, the odds being laid upon
her without the least hesitation by the " right sort" who is
addition secured ail the money that was to be had about her
foe the great event, as little as 25 to 1 being taken at last,
Whether she has turned ejecta or lost all form her next encoun-
ter must discover ; but I can hardly entertain the latter sup-
position, as her party would never ham entrusted her for
so much money without knowing what form she was in.
The 3-yr-old events served to prove what Madame Eglan-
tine', lusts is, and that the Brag of Diamonds and Tom
Bowline are very close together now; stall the latter gave
every promise of proving the better 3-yr.old of the two, and
them was more than one behind them that will earn himself
a good name next meson.
Verities oopipnions were formed regarding the pretensions at
the Caserewitch animals that were seen out during the week.
Of counts "the great gun" was Attlee', who went like one
for • certain distance; but nook was also very carefully taken
of Magnum, Prioress, Yorkshire Grey, and one or two others,
and the opinion was anivenally in favour of the Grey, who
gallops as strong as • lion, sod se he is again undoubtedly In
his beet form, only those animals with a combination of speed
and bottom of the higbest order will be able to shake him off
over the two muse and a quarter.
The meeting at Richmond will excite little mare than keel
interest, unless it should happen that Upperband bang from
Middlehem for the Sapling -Staley, when we should get •
better tonsure of his form than at York, where he was quite
ent of condition. The Prophet and Bivouac are both good
enough for his performance with them to afford a "line', as
it must not be forgotten the latter beat Brother to Rainbow '
(who heat a reepecnble lot in a canter at Newmarket) at '
York, and in Upperhand'a absence Bivouac templet manage
to _ pull through. The Richmond Handicap has only
bed • dozen acceptors. and Julia did (puts auffichist
' with Dilkoosh and Archduchess at Manchester to have
tin preference, despite her 61b pecialty. The Two and Three
Yser Old Sweepstakes ought to be won by the Tiger, good
as the entry is, if he is only half so good as he appeare, and
the stable think him a Derby horse. The Caledonia's
Hunt Meeting is only noticeable for its Caledonian and Perth
Handicap, in which Adam Bede has none tin worst of the
hut, looking at what three behind him In the Great
Yorkshire Handicap have since accomplished. The Handicap
at Bedford is worth something approaching 4001., and the
race may mono( some importothe to the Cesarewitch. should
Pan and York enter the arena, as they represent the Gimping:l
end Borden" (or Royal Sovereign) interests ; it looks like a
race between the two among ouch a moderate lot, and York
ally to carry " the money " for me to stand by him.
With such a moderate lot in the two-ye-old races, a Wortley
is not easily made, and the only other event closed is the
Seem Handicap, which promises the most interesting race
• of the meeting, foe • lot of 29 had been most carefully handi-

ceived to the of that the erection of a work it Gorlaston

mayor, who replied that such a promise had beta toads for
years without soy remit. This remonstrance has elicited a
armed letter from the Earl of Ripos, Hader Secretary at
War, who states that the erection of the work trill be pro-
ceeded with as soon as terms can be come to with the pro-
peietor of the site requited. His lordship adds con-
