THE 11711VNER OF THE DERBY.
So many of the prophets having been " oat" re-
illittcting the winner of the great race yesterday, it is
ihioresting to observe that one, at least, evinced upon
w! matter a very extraordinary degree of prescience.
ithout directly assuming' to himself the power of
vaticluation, the writer of a I)amplilet, noticed some
111101411 s back in the columns of The Sun, and calling
tiltaself " The Wizard of the North,". named 'the
tee first horses that actually passed the winning
li,'l°.Bt---Daniel O'Rourke, Barbarian, and Chief Baron
'Nicholson. The paniphlet 'in question was entitled

ckers, :la far back as January. Of 'the chief

11,„• Chief Baron NichOlson, -grime to the tack bone, as
„° two dead heats with Kingston prove. The heats
tr said to have been run remarkably gleick, the dis•
being performed in 1 mitatite29 seconds;. but
cannot be so, as, in 1850, Payment won the
6414111e' race in 1 minute 14 seconds, but then there was
ektilerence of 41b3. in her favour. The Chief Baron

r,.°4 remarkable was the writer's prediction
ifregard to the actual winner of the Derby
1852, Daniel O'Rourke. In regard to
he spoke as follows:—" Daniel O'Rourke is a
,77,act, though mean looking little horse, of the Eu.
(74 build, and gifted with great speed for a short
:stance. We expect to see him retrieve his early
e„,„,,featBl if not in the Derby, at least in some other
g:4LY good thino." It mast be confessed that the
tivq fortune of Mr. Bowes was owing not only to
e,e-toellence of the horse itislf, but to the masterly

lifted his horse in, at the critical Moment,
