Tkis work contains a plain and complete description of the ana-

highest medical honours, as evidenced by the diplomas and testimo-

who has exclusively, and for many years, devoted his studies to
the treatment of these complaints. He may be consulted with ad.
vantage by all those whose constitutions may have become debili-

of later years, whereby the pleasures of life are marred, the objects
of marriage frustrated, and existence itself rendered a term of un-

No. XXVIII.
THE NEWMARKET CRAVEN MEETING.

" Will you go see the order of the course?
Where the place?
Upon the heath."—SISAKSPERE.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—Throughout next week the Heath of Newmarket
will once more be the rendezvous cf the sporting world.
This meeting in the " good old times" (?) commenced the
racing season, now it figures in the catalogue as the tenth
fixture; but in our respect it maintains its position as the
first annual ieanion for the enlightenment of the public with
regard to the three-year-old running, thus becoming avery
important key to the result of the 2,000 and 1,000 Guineas
Stakes, Derby and Oaks. It commences on Monday and
extends to Friday, a pretty good range. The s, akes for the
first day, with the exception of the two 50 soya., over the D.M.
and R. M., have not 7 et closed. The Rowley Mile Sweepstakes
of 50 sore, each, all the money, amounting to 3001., will be
contested by a trio, and Midas ought to be the winner.
The Ditch Mile Sweepstakes of 50 soya. each, h. ft. for fillies,
will lay between Coticula and Iris, and as the latter receives
31bs of the former, that ought to turn the scale, but I doubt
its doing so very much. On Tuesday one of the great guns
of the meeting, the Newmarket Handicap, stands for de-
cision; the field for which I estimate at about sixteen, but
at the present moment it is difficult to form an accurate list;
however, I think the following will be found wanting :
Glauca, Woolwich, Pitsford, Vatican, William the Conqueror,
Windischgratz, Clermont, Legerdemain, Mooltan, Flare-up,
knook knoll, Hesse Homburg, Brother to Truthteller, and
the John o'G. aunt colt; from the rest I will attempt the
task of selecting the winner. Uriel,
.5 yrs, Bst 21b, from his
previous running I should set aside in favour of Strongbow,
5 yrs, 7st 121 b, who, I fancy, will be in front, no matter who
wins. The same remarks will apply to the Knight of Gwynne,
4 yrs, ist 51b, and Bushranger, 4 yrs, 7st 21b, the latter hav-
ing the pull. Champion, although in at the easy weight of
7st, for a five-year old, has always cut such a wretched
figure, that it is difficult to believe he will get
any nearer than third or fourth place at the
best. Kissaway, same ag3 and weight, I hold in some re-
spect, and have no hesitation in asserting that ehe will be
very forward. The Squire's Minimum, 5 yrs, Est 131 b, I
cannot have, albeit his victory at Warwick last November,
with 6st 81b up, was accomplished easily enough by some
three lengths. Tophana, 6 yrs, 6st 111 b, is a bad spec. The
Duke of Bedford's Quasimodo, 5 yrs, Est 101 b, is in on un-
commonly good terms, and I have no doubt the talented
oracle of the ring, Captain Rous, thought so when he ac-
cepted with him, but. 'tie said, he is not in such good trim
ashe might be. St. George, 4 yrs, Est 101 b, comparatively
with some of the others, is not in on winning terms. The
foregoing observation applies also to the Mouse, 4 yrs, 6st
91b. Mr. H. Stebbings' speedy animal, The Cutler, 3 yrs,
sst 101 b, who has, off and on, been snpported for a large sum
eversince the acceptances appeared, is, in my humble opinion,
somewhat overrated at his present weight ; and for my part,
I would just as soon back Entre-nous, same age and weight,
as him; but, notwithstanding, do not think his winning an
impossible task. Recruit, late Thorough-good Sam, is, at
the same weight and age as the preceding couple,
a thorough-bad spec. Antigone, 3 yrs, sst 21b, and
not Hesse Homburg, will, I believe, represent the
Goodwood Stable, and run well : her performances hitherto
have marked her above the rank of mediocrity. Nondescript
at the bottom of the handicap is very properly named. To
sum up, I imagine the race will lay with Uriel, Strongbow,
Kissaway, Quasimodo, Antigone, The Cutler, and Bush-
ranger, and that it may possibly end thus :
ANTIGONE, or 1
1
QUASIMODO f
THE CUTLER 2
the other three close up. Should any circumstance occur to
make an alteration necessary, it will appear in Monday's
paper. Three will go to the post for the Eighteenth Riddles-
worth, which Hernandez ought to win; should he be bowled
over it will be by Naptha. Ariosto will win the 100 sow.
Stakes, over the Abingdon mile. On Wednesday we have
the Column Stakes, which has often decided the fate of three
or four Derby nags, it will hardly do so this time. The field
will probably consist of the following:—Ariosto, Bst 41b
Payment, Bst 11b—The Black Sea, Bst 71b—Trinket (the
filly by Amorino, out of Earring), 7st 131b—Hatherton,
Bst 41b. One or two others may run, as the stake is minus
forfeits, but not, as far as I can discover, with any prospect of
altering the result, which, I think, will be as follows:

AMOSTO ......... ...... (Nat) 1
PAYMENT
The 200 sovs. Stakes, D.M., although boasting among the
entries the names of Midas and Teddington, will, I fancy, be
won by Cuticula, with The Ban in the second place.
On Thursday the Ditch Mile, 100 sovs. Sweepstakes, with
an entry including the names of Storm, Catalpa, Ariosto, and
Newminster, may possibly be won by Scott's horse, but in
my opinion much more likely by Mr. Payne's—more anon.
The Claret Stakes will probably have Nutshell first, and
William the Conqueror second. The 50 sovs. Stakes will be
a close affair between Christina and Hurry Scurry, resulting
in the victory of the former.

On Friday-the 100 sovs. Stakes will be won by the Mountain
Sylph colt, if he runs, otherwise Midas. Oleander will beat
Nondescript in their match. Ido not anticipate seeing more
than four at the post for the Port Stakes, viz., Bee Hunter,
Officious, The Knight' of Avenel, and another, and the result
something after this style—
OFFICIOUS
KNIGHT OF AVENEL ...(Marlow) 2
Throughout the next week, with the exception of Satur-
day, brief remarks on the latest moves at Newmarket will
appear daily, thus meeting the views of the public in one
highly important particular.

lying at,
Spectator took the lead at starting, followed by
Maria Day, and Lord George, the British Yeoman
the head of the rear rank. In this order they passed the
Stand, and cleared the fence out of the winning field, the lead
being then taken by Maria Day, waited on by Lord; George,
Spring Buck, Mulligan, and Rendsburgh. British Yeoman,
on entering the common, laid several lengths away from the
leading horses, but drew towards them in approaching the
brook, and took it third, and in rising the hill got the second
place, Rendsburgh being third, with Lord George in close
attendance. The leading horses got safely over the
hurdles half way up the bill, but Spring Buck on landing
stuck fast in the mud, rolled over, got rid of his footing,
broke away, and took several of the succeeding fences. From
this point the lead alternated between Maria Day and Lord
George, waited on by British Yeoman, nothing else being
in the race. About a distance from home the three closed,
and Lord George, after an excellent race with the Yeo-
man, won, bard held, by a length and a half; Maria Day a
bad third!
