THE WHIP.
An attempt to explain the armorial engravings on
"The Whip."
The researches made by the writer lead to a reason-
able conviction that the Whip was originally the pro-
perty of Thomas Barrett Leonard, Lord Dacre, in the
reign of King Charles the Second. They are supported
by the following facts :—Thomas, Lord Dacre, was the
eldest son of Francis, by Elizabeth, daughter and co-
heir of Paul, Viscount Bayning, of Sudbury. This Tho-
mas, Lord Dacre, was on the sth of October, 26
Charles 11., created Earl of Sussex, and was then Lord
of the Bedchamber to his Majesty.
The armorial bearings on the handle of the whip may
be elucidated as follows :

Ist. Or, on a fess, pies, three flew delis, for—Leo-
nard.

2nd. Argent, three lions rampant, for—Sussex.
3rd. Three escallops, for Bayning (mother of
Thomas, Lord Dacre).
4th. Party per pale harry, of four counter•changed,
argent and gule for— Barrett.
Signed Rd. Bignell. 14 Feb., 1836.
This celebrated trophy was won by Kingston on
Tuesday last, and is now in the possession of Mr.
Morris. Some hair of the famous Eclipse is interwoven
in the lash.

THE DISPUTED RACES AT RUGELEY.—We have au-
thority to state that the Rugeley Stakes have been paid

glesey Stakes have been awarded to Doubt, in conse-
quence of Morning Star, who came in first, not having
carried the proper weight.
