MILITARY RACES.

An official programme of a series of events, which are full of interest
and excitement to the sporting world, has been recently published.
We allude to the race meeting which is fixed to take place In Warwick
on the 23rd and 21th of September next. A leading feature in this
affair is the rivalry of officers of the French and English armies and
navies, who having rsemtly tested their skill and strength in turflte
struggles at T a Marche, aro about, with the aid of several members of
the French jockey and other clubs, to renew the competitio ; upon an
English race-course. The Warwick race committee have not only
expressly guaranteed £l5O towards the expenses of the meeting, but
taken upon themselves additional responsibilities, amounting to about
; whilst the town of Leamington has entered into a satisfactory
guarantee for £lOO. The first day's sport will consist of six events,
the two principal of which, bearing the characteristic names of the
Alma and B ilaklava Stakes, are to receive the aid of lberal subscrip-
tions from the borough of Warwick. These rases will be confined to
officers in z ctive service by land and sea. Two handicaps are thrown
opento the members of certain specified clubs, and in two other races
jockles will ride. The second day's racing is upon an equally
extended scale. There are an Inkermann stakes, and a handicap, to
each of which Leamington adds £5O of public money; a Sehastopot
stokes, and another handicap—all four races" bein g confined to French
anal English officers. There will be a third handidap, bearing a cog-
nomen specially complimentary to the "hero of t'oe Eden," and to
which will be appended .eloo, handsomely added from the receipts of
the stand, and also a plate of £5O given by the committee. We are
assured that several hundred pounds have already been collected
among military gentlemen in farther ,nce of the objects of this meet-
ing, thus securing the bonus announced for each particular event

the programme, independently of whatever amount of subscriptions
may be locagy collected. At the late affair at La Ma7che, it was an
English officer—Captain Craven, of the Ist Life Guards, and nephew
of Earl Craven, of Combe Abbey—who had the honour of being
winner of the Oreat Military Steeple Chase ; but it is only fair to state
that two French noblemen, Vicomte de Lauriston and the Duke
Grammo'l-Caderou=se, who figured on the ozcision, rode remarkaby
well.—Leamington Spa Courier.
