reached the lea*, what (Money Sweep trod on •
large stone that lay in the censer, and in coneequence fell
and brake his leg. The accident caused immenev excite-
ment and eresternation to prevail the stand,

which point Adams, the jockey, was seen first to vault out
of the saddle, and next to return to the enclosure on foot.
So serious was the injury sustained by Chimney Sweep,
that Lord County, to put an end to the horse's suffer-
ings, ordered him to be shot, and this was immediately
done. To return to the race. At the fleet fusee Slieve
Carne refused and pulled up, the remainder negotiated the
second fence, but at the °hauls immediately preceding
Becher's Brook Fan and Charming Woman refused, and
their chances being thus extinguished, they were not fur-
ther persevered with. Before Becher s Brook bad been
actually reached Captain Crosstree deprived Gents of the
command. At the brookiteelf the last-named refined, while
Mentmore' Thalawilis, and Buuke, in endeavouring
to take the leap, fell ; and of this lot, the
latter only was persevered with. The field now
became widely scattered, with Captain Cranium
leading by sir lengths. No casualty occurred at Valen-
tine's Brook, nor did any alteration take place in
the positions previously indicated. At the table jump
into the course Alcibiade and Helen drew forward, Moose,
Huntsman, and The Nan being corns distance in the rear.
At the hurdles just before reaching the stand Captain
Cr:cadre* ran up to Alcibiade, and got over first. Pearl
Diver, now running up, led the way over the water ; The
Lamb. Captain Croestree, Daisy, Huntsman's Daughter,
Alcibiade, Moose, and Helen following in the order named.
The Nun, who was several lengths behind, came down at
this point, and throwing Wheeler, broke away riderless.
Following her came Buszke, Astrolabe, and The Plover—
Kingwood, some distance behind the latter, jumping into
the middle of the water. All got over the from past
Becher'a Brook, and Alcibiade was now seen to
take up the running, The Lamb and Captain
Croestree close up, Pearl Diver and Moose next.
Alcibiade, however, won gave way under the weight, and
Captain Crosstree re-assumed the lead on the return home,
The Lamb, Pearl Diver, and Ali:blade following closely in
the wake. At Valentine's Brook Daisy was dead beaten,
and the jockey had some trouble to get him over, while
Buszke tired in the ploughed land, and was pulled up. No
change occurred in the positions of the leaders till reaching
the table jump the second tine. Here Captain Crowrine
refused, but was soon righted, but Moose retired beaten.
On gaining the course the issue was left to The Lamb and
Pearl Diver, the two coming on neck and neck to the first
hurdle, which they charged together. At the last hurdle
neither hail the slightest advantage over the other, and it
looked as though either might win. Both wersiridden
with great determination, but Pearl Diver being settled
opposite the stand, The Lamb drew away, and won by two
lengths. Captain Croatree and Alcibiade made a race of it
for third place, which the latter obtained by about a
length. Astrobe and Helen, beaten a distance, walked in
