for the purpose of settling account, on the Newmarket
events.

Prose start to finish the meeting was marked by the most
gratifying success. Not mile was the supply of sport most
abundant, but the proceeding were of • character to create
great interest, and to exercise a lasting influence over future
movements in the turf market. Thus the running for the
Two Thousand and One Thousand has caused important
changes in the betting on the Derby and Oaks, whilst the
results of the minor races have in certain instances diverted
the operations on the Chester Cup and other handicaps into
new channels. The changes in the betting have been duly
recorded in the list of quotation which was appended es&
duty to our report of the racing.
Tb• programme of the week's sport contained 48 engage-
ments. Of these 41 were brought to an issue, commend-
ing, in the aggregate, 1:46 starters. Newmarket, too,
achieved • triumph which excited the liveliest gratification,
not only amongst the inhabitants of the town, but amongst
those members of the sporting community who firmly
believe that the Heath is "the dank ground of ruing,"
where only the Isthmian games can be orojoyed to pedal-
don. The " provincial" horses had little chance with the
home-tramed animals for the 48 events which were ap-
pointed for decision. 30 were pieced to the credit of the
Newmarket !miners, end amongst that number must be
reckoned all the principal stakes of the meeting, the Two
Thennad *Anglo Joseph Dawson's etable,the One Thounnd
to Bedeck's, and the Newmarket Two-yeareid Plate to
Higbee's. Lord fitamford's successes created great entb*-
dean, for he is • munificent patron of the tore, maiia
ttmenieing eetabliahment, and exareising may timiyliZ
seta of charity amongst the poor. In addition to
