15 agst Attraction.

The refractory conduct of the Olitipa filly caused a slight
delay, but they were at last despatched to a capital start,
Starbeam, on the extreme right, making play for the first
200 yards, when Cranbury took up the running, closely
followed by Attraction, Bold Houghton, and the Olitipa
filly. At the road Attraction dropped back beaten, and,
with the exception of Payne, all the jockeys were hard
upon their h,rses, Approaching the enclosure the Olitipa
filly quitted the rest, and, coming with a final rush, was
only beaten by a head; Bold Houghton was beaten a
length front the second, whilst a head only separated the
third and fourth ; Attraction was fifth, De Grey sixth, and
Starbeam hat.

mary. Before they had run a quarter of a mile, however,
The Doe went to the front, and won easily by two lengths;

lb each agst Killarney and Royal Sovereign, 7 to 1 each
agst Vindicta and Hilly Grove, 10 to 1 agst Barmaid.
Owing to Hilly Grove and Barmaid being troublesome
at the start, tbere was considerable delay at the post. They
were, however, despatched on pretty good terms, but
Hilly Grove instantly getting into stride, was in front,
with Incitatus and Pony next, Zeloo being last off. The
latter quickly made up her disadvantage, and was on
terms with the leaders in the first few hundred yards.
After reaching the turn, Pony headed Hilly Grove; but,
upon arriving at the road crossing, Hilly Grove again got
the lead, and next these followed Incitatus on the right,
and Zeloo on the left. At the distance Hilly Grove and
Pony came on together, and, after a spirited struggle, the
race ended in a dead heat; Zeloo was beaten half a length
from the pair ; Incitatus was fourth, Killarney fifth, Vin-
dicta sixth, and the last two were Blue Bell and Royal
Sovereign.

Deciding Heat-11 to 10 on Pony. The two came on
abreast to the distance, where they cannoned and ran
locked together to within a few strides of home, when
Pony got his head in front, and won by a head. On re-
turning to scale, an objeCtion was lodged against the win-
ner, which was gone into before Lord Dorchester and J.
Nicholson, Esq., who, after hearing the evidence, decided
in favour of Pony.

Violet and Gibraltar jumped away in front, and passing
the stand on the outward journey, Violet next the rails,
made play slightly in front of Gibraltar, behind whom at
the head of the rear rank were The Principal and Flash in
the Pan, Vinegar Hill last. On the far side of the course
Violet increased her lead, and Merrimac having run against
a post was pulled up, Zanker, his jockey, severely injuring
his knee. There was no other alteration in the front divi-
sion until they made the turn into the straight, where
Gibraltar and The Principal gave way to Flash in the Pan
and Vinegar Hill; Violet, however, maintained the lead to
the finish and won easily by two lengths. Vinegar Hill
was beaten four lengths from the second, Baron of Avon
was fourth, Dux fifth, and the last three were Indolence,

AN INSULT WITTILY CHANGED INTO A COM-
PLImENT.—Tbe Duc de Berry once in an alterca-
tion with a colonel of the Guards at Court tore off the
epaulets of his adversary, who instinctively grasped the hilt
of his sword. Fortunately, Louis XVIII. saw what
passed,
and with his wonderful presence of mind and readi.
nese, calling the colonel up to him, said :—" Colonel, my-
nephew has just taken off your epaulets because he knew
that I destined for you those of a General." The Prilace
in the meantime had recovered his temper, and gracefully
did his best to efface all painful recollection of the affront.
