HORSY AND Hoorn MATCH.---This affair still continues to
excite the utmost interest in sporting circles. Sim Temple-
man, we hear, has been applied to to ride in it, and has con-
sented, provided he is not required to waste too much. From
the experience Templeman hag had in the hunting field, a
more appropriate selection could not have been made, and we
trust the other riders will be equaUy well cho6en,
