TO THE EDITOR OF TH.P.: SUIV.
SlR,—The colt by Simoona, out of Verbena, improved
upon his running in Ireland by winning the Chillington
Stakes at Wolverhampton yesterday very easily. It is
true enough that he had nothing of conscquence to beat;'
but, con..siderirg his travels lately and, consequently, some-
what deficient work, his victory is very creditable to
him. He is a horse that will make some noiLe in the
World before he closes his racing career.
The Paishull Handicap was won very cleverly by
Paddy Bird, who found himself perfectly at home over
his own peculiar length--a mile and a half. Morning
Star, receiving 1.511 as of the winner, and 321)* of Young
England, managed to beat the latter for second honours.
Grief, who wan the Ffee Handicap last year with the
trip weight up, jwit contrived to ditto that performance.
She has evid-n,ly improved in term during the present
spring and summer, and not improbably may enable
her noble owner to pick up a thing or two weLh her in
the course of the autumn.
Galvar.isus, about whoii there has been so much said
in public of late, was brought out yesterday, and won
the Cleveland Cup from Trifle and Clothworker. The
latter, evidently stale, bad to concede seine three stone
to the winner, end his chance, in con,quence, was out
from end to cud. This daughter of the Doctor and
Shadow is a flue sla,hing filly ; and being a vcify fin.
proving animal, will, late in the ticum), or next spring,
if not over weighted, do a " good thing."
The only stoke at Coventr:, that the public seem in-
clined to bet about is iho aptly, though strangely
named Peeping Tom Handicap. a there-quariers of a
mile spurt; out of an entry of eighteen it will have a
third, or more, at the poet, will THE KNIGHT 01 THE
THISTLE, or BULLFINCH the winner.

At the Lynn tn, eting only two races are likely to
ornate speculation in town. For thy- first, the West
Norfolk. Handicap, a two mile run, SURPRISE and KING
OF TROT, to my thinking, will be first and second; and
for the other race, the Stradsett Hall Stakes,
SCANDAL is reported to be as good as any thing.
Both these meetings come off to-morrow.

The betting was not very brisk laht night, nor is it
so this morning; the principal investments were on the
Ebor Handle ip and St. Leger. The following were the
latest quotations!—Reading Stakes-5 to 4on Vaultreis,
sto 1 agst Michaelmas Maid. Innkeepers' Stakes-5
and 6 to 4 agst Kilmeny, the latter odds takes freely;
4to 1 each agst Tneorem and Eurus. Peeping Tom
