The first to shew in advance when they were fairly in •
their places were Crocus, Curieuse, and Dryad, who ran
nearly abreast, about a length in advance of the favourite ;
close up with whom were seen the colours of Miss Foote,
Brigantine, Toison d'Or, and Clemency ; the others were
headed by Aubade, Teeswater, and Polissonne,
Hymen, Scottish Queen, Minaret, and Martinique
being in the extreme rear. The last-named in.
particular was extremely slow in beginning, but
before Sherwood's Cottage had been reached, some
fifty yards from the start, she had quitted her horses and
succeeded in ovettaking the leaders, who were running at
a wretched pace. Half-way up the hill, Morna on the
inside ran up to the leaders, and at once assumed the
lead. Curieuse and Dryad at the same time gave way,
and their places were taken by Miss Foote, Toison d'Or,
and Brigantine, the French filly going on next, in
company with Brigantine, Crocus, Teeswater, and
Martinique, close in whose track came Scottish Queen
and Teeswater, the rearmost horses even at this early
period being widely separated. In these positions they
remained through the furzes, but on rounding the turn
into the old course, at the mile-post, Morns and Miss
Foote drew away, and were two or three lengths in
front of Toison d'Or and Brigantine 'as they descended
the hill, on the right being Crocus and Martinique, with
Teeswater and Scottish Queen as their immediate fol-
lowers. Thus they proceeded until fairly round Tat-
tenham Corner, but on entering the straight Miss Foote
was seen in difficulties, and in a few strides further her
colours disappeared from the van. Tolson d'Or followed
suit immediately after, which left the Woodyeates filly in
attendance upon Sir Joseph Hawley's favourite, Crocus
going on third, with Martinique at her girths. When
crossing the road the latter made an attempt to
get up on the whip hand of Crocus, who at
the same moment hung so much through distress as
to compel Snowden to ease his mare and come up on
the lower ground. This gave au additional advantage'
to the leaders, who drew away, and came on several
lengths clear, Morna, on the whip hand of Brigantine,
holding a decided lead, which she retained to the enclosure.
Here Cannon, who had bided his time through the dirt,
brought up his filly, and, fairly heading Morns at the
Stand, cantered home the winner by a couple of lengths ;
Martinique finished a wretched third, Crocus and Tees-
dale being fourth and fifth, close up. An interval of
eight or ten lengths separated these from Scottish Queen,
Toison d'Or, and Dryad, who headed the pulling-up
division, the last of whom were Aubade, Curieuse, and
Minaret. Time of the race, as taken by Benson's
Chronograph, 2min. 58,,sec. Time of 1868 race, 2min.

THE MURDER OF MR. BRADSHAW. The
Clonniel Chronicle states that an application has been
made on the joint informations of Sub-inspectors
M'Loughlin and Aldwortb, for the further remand of
the young man Allis, who has been in custody since the
murder of Mr. Bradshaw. It was granted for eight days.
The Chronicle states that the "inquiry has been a most
intricate one, tending to bailie all investigation," and that
the magistrates, police, and Crown solicitor have been
assiduous in their efforts to solve the mystery and dis-
co/0:k the 'guilty party. There is the utmost unwilling-
ness to aid the authorities,
