It is hardly worth while to quote stocks, so many are
merely nominal—Reading, 66 to 67; Canton, 22 ;

Wall-street looks gloomy, as, besides the misfortunes
recorded, so many of its leading spirits are out of town

BRIGHTON RACES.
the entries for the Stakes which " closed" last night
were numerically
insignificant, and indeed a strong
probability exists that the fields will, in the majority
of instances, be somewhat small. This circumstance is
calculated to excite no little surprise when the liberal
'amount of " added money" which is distributed among
the various stakes is taken into consideratiou, In-
ducements to owners to send their horses to Brighton ar•
oertainly not wanting. All shortcomings in the euppiY ofl
sport must therefore be attributed to the fact of mitnY
.animals having been "knocked out of time" at the meat
gathering at Goodwood.
The programme for the two days comprises thirteen
items. I shall confine my remarks, however, to the
principal events only. The investments on the
Brighton Stakes have been limited to Orestes,
Pantomime, Poodle, Cock Pheasant, and the Jennala
filly, but no decided demonstration bas been made
in favour of any one of these animals. Although
Orestes will be somewhat "out of his distance,"
yet the animals he will encounter belong to an inferior
class, and he will doubtless, therefore, be capable of
"getting home" among the leading horses. Pantomime
is unquestionably " well in," but the form" in which
he has exhibited this season was not so good as that
which he displayed towards the end of last year. I am
informed, however, that he is now in capital condition.
Doubts seem to exist as to the starting of Cock Phea-
p4ant —indeed, Bell's Life announces that Dockeray, his
trainer, " will have nothing at Brighton." Should he,
however, go to the pest he will be entitled to considers-
Lion. I entertain no great expectations of the success of
either Poodle or the Jennnala filly. Could I calculate
with certainty on a start, I should unhesitatingly select
Orestes, Pantomime, and Cock Pheasant against the
field.
Despite his 91bs penalty, Chambigne will doubtless
experience little difficultiin winning the Biennial Stakes.
Henrietta, Nicotine, and Kennylide Hero seem favour-
ably weighted for the Marine Plate. For the Cup,
Virago has 1311 a. extra to carry, in addition to the 71bs
extra for the " exemption from being claimed." Although
she is therefore reported " expected," yet her absence
will not be surprising. Should this supposition be
realised, I shall expect to see Sharavogue the winner.
Roebuck, St. Faith, and Kennyside Hero are the most
noteworthy names in the list of nominations to the
Pavilion Plate. Joshua and the Refraction colt will
perhaps occupy the foremost places for the Third Bien.
nial Stakes. Until "the numbers are up," however, it
is difficult to discover the probable starters. Should
Andover put in an appearance for the Champagne Stakes,
his success will be reduced to a certainty.
The Brighton Club held their tryst on Friday. They
have established two new stakes, but the " skeleton
programme" at present renders it impossible to judge of
the prospect of sport.

TATTERSALL'S-YESTERDAT.

Throughout the afternoon, room, terrace, and yard
were thronged with speculators, but although a very
large amount of money changed hands on the Goodwood
account, the settling was manifestly slow. Many
balances stand over, but a belief exists that the greater
portion of them will be liquidated at the approaching
gathering at Brighton.

Business on coming events was very limited, as the
subjoined scanty list of quotations will testify.
