RACING AT PARIS, SEPTA.

. - -
The horse racci for the prizes of the Arrondissemenli took
place yesterday in. the Champ de Mars. Dio, belonging to M.
Devedeux, gained the first prize of 1,200 francs. The second
prize, also of 1,200 fano, was won try Thornton, belong to Mr.
Rieussec, sen. Nell, belonging to the Duke de Guiche, won a
prize of 900 francs. The fourth prize, also of 900 francs, was
won by Sansonnette, belonging to M. Desgrands. She gal-
lopped three times round. the Champ de Mars min. 51 sec.
Several Journals have report d the accidents which happened
incorrectly. They have stated that the three jockeys who. were
thrown oft were wounded ; but only one, and that is too many,
was hurt; one of the others is to ride to-morrow. The first
jockey fell from going too close to the rope; which had been
deranged by a horseman ; in falling he overturned a post, and
as this could not be remdied while the horses were running, it
caused the fall of a second jockey. lie then fell, from running
against the rope at another place, and it was this latter who was
hurt. To avoid such accidents in future, a double circle is now
forming, which will exclude all horsemen from that one in
which the race-horses run.

BOXING.
David Fludgon (brother to the John Bull Fighter) will short-
ly take the /Feld against O'Neale, the Streatham Youth. The
following articles of agreement were entered into between
them :

" Golden Cross, Cross-lane. Long Acre,
Tuesday, Sept. 2, 1893.
" David Hudson agrees to tight Edward O'Neal for 251.
aside; to be a fair stand-up fight, in a 24 feet ring. To take
place on Tuesday, September '9R; an umpire to be chosen on
each side, and a referee upon the ground. Mr. Jackson to
name the place of fighting. Five and twenty pounds aside aro
now deposited; but should the backers wish to make it for
501. aside, the additional 251. aside to be made, good at Mr.
Holt's, on Tuesday, the 9th of September, between the hours
of eight and twelve o'clock in the evening.
" D. Hunsort.
" Witness, H. 1101. T. " O'islEal.e."
The Streatham Youth has. never been defeated ; is young,
strong, •and a hard hitter. Hudson has seen a good deal of
service in the P. R. The sporting world already feel consider-
able interest in the event.—Hudson is under the especial care of
the "Sage of the East." Even betting is about the mark.—On the same day, Pat Cavanagh, a tight bit of stuff from the
green turf, t'other side of the water, is again matched with the
Lively Kid (Stockman), for twenty pounds aside. Cavanagh
is a most interesting feature in the
.purlicus of the Holy Land ;
and he does not want for backers, in consequence of the talents
he displayed in throwing victory from Sttickman. The Kid
tells all his friends, that le will be either up or dawn with Mr.
Cavanagh this time, and will also give the Poi/ender all " he
knows" into the bargain. A match 'Or fifty pounds a tide
will shortly be made between Gypsey Cooper and Defoe, or
with Den Warwick. The Gypsey very politely offering to
give the preference to Mr. Defoe, if the Weenninster hero
wishes it. If not, he will accommodate Mr. Warwick with a
Band or two, whenever the latter thinks proper to'eull upon

ARCIINRY 4.1* CiLairsWonTll.—Chatswortil Park was last
' week the scene of gay festivity. Derbyshire throughout is well
calculated to inspire its natives with a taste for 'Auld sports,
and therefore it is. that archery has become thefavourite amuse.
ment of nearly the whole of its principal families. Thursday,
being a remarkably fine day, carriages of all kinds were filled with
respectable persons, who went tube spectators of the exhibition.
The country,for many miles distant felt an interest on the or-
casion, and sending torch its gaily attired parties of Melee, and,
female*, contributed 'to enliven the general, appearance and
make the scene altogether a 'particularly pleasing one. It is the
general opinion that the Ladies were the 'moat accomplished
performers, and made the best use of the how and arrow; thin
they excelled the Gentlemen, and were the most successful tom-
potato's for the prize of fame. 'rho Duke, we,presuine, is not
very, emulous on such occasions; and was more pleased to be a
witness of another's skill than his own: Ills'Graee appeared .6
feel a real pleasure in the society of his neighbours, and desir-
ous of doing all in his power to make them happy.
On Friday, a party_of the Royal Company of I'
Archers proceeded to Selkirk, to' shootfor the silier arrow given '
by the Magistrates of that good town. The prize was keenly.'
contested, and gained by John Colin Wilson, Es q., W. S. Th 4
party were joined at the festive board by several visitors—the
Magistrates, accompanied by the accustomed tribute of a
riddle of claret, Sir Walter Scott, and several gentlemen from
the neighbourhood, united with the Body Guard in devoting
'the afternoon to mirth and happiness. On Sitturday, the party

where there was also a silver arrow to

consequently numerous. The shooting ground, studded with
Archers in their full attire, surrounded by lefty hilts, ', and in
the bosom of a beautifully roetled country , thrnugh which the
mighty Tweed sweeps its way,° presented a scene worthy of t.
Nasmyth's pencil. The modem mluisions of King's-Meadowl,
and Kerfield, with their pleasure-grounds, adorned the land.
Scape ; while Neidpath Castle, more congenial to the recol-
lections of the Archers, frowning. ill Baronial- pride in the
distance, reminded the spectator of times gone by. The
pany marched through the town to the shooting-around, with all
the pomp and circumstance of contest; and tbe__prize was
gained by Sir Patrick Walker. The riddle,—for Peebles too
boasts a riddle, which, for want of a bottom, is not so easily
solved as that of her sister borough, was at its post in the after-
noon. The Provost and Magistrates honoured the Company
With their presence at dinner which was served up in Mr.
Ross's best style. After the cloth was removed, the usual
loyal and anunatin
toasts, with a goodly display of &ppm;

old Time of a few hours. 'the party set off amid the mingled
cheers of the inhabitants, and returned to town that night.—
