gut a.bead, keeping the lead, with Shakspeare and Dervise close at
his quarter. They continued at a famous pace to the end, when
Twaity won the Great Derby Stakes by a length cleverly. The
favouri.e, Premier, was dame up at the Duke of York's
tobbinx house, notwithstanding • Chiffney was very liberal
‘ith both whip and spur; he could not go any further,
and came in last. The Baron and Truth were beat off a
kng way from home, while Monarch, the Moslem, Rush,
dc. came in with the crowd. The result was to ally unex-
ktiel. and may produce some unpleasant conseqaences—

BETTING ON THE OAKS.
7 to 4 agst Problem, and 4 to I agst Forth's two.
!laving now brought our notice of the legitimate sports of the
day to a close, we may be allowed to remark that the return from
the races was essentially different In character to the journey
to them. The buoyancy of spirits of those who went for amuse-
ment, and the feverish anxiety of those whose object was burdnera,
had alike vanished, and in many Instances had given place to thk de-
lusive excitement of inebriety. The joyous hearts who, in the non..
ing, had a nod or a wink and a merry answer for the roadside win,
were now mere passive butts for their coarse unbridled raillery,
which was pointed as well at their altered demeanour as at their
habiliments, which, from the state of the roads and the confusion
of the race course, had experienced a metamorphose as complete
as if the magic sword of Harlequin had been at work, smarting
under the lash of ridicule, freely and indiscriminately bestowed ;
there were not a few who bkssed themselves when they brought
their jaded horses, and no less jaded selves, to a comfortable an-
chorage at home.
