THE RATE.

Speed the Plough was first off, but after going a few
strides he dropped back, and Malacca, with Mary in close
company, went to the front ; and these two were soon
many lengths ahead, December, Cotswold, Flatterer,
Pole Star, Comedy, Poodle, Vengeance, Aleppo, Roger-
thorpe, Prince, of Orange, and Speed the Plough, form-
ing the next division. They ran thus at a tremendous
pace to the ditch gap, and soon after passing this point
Mary gradually disappeared from the front. No other
perceptible change was made until descendingthe Bushes
Hill, when Malacca gave way, and Pole Star shot to the
front, with December second, Vengeance third, Roger.
thorpe and Fulbeck the next in pursuit. Half way down
the hill Vengeance passed December and went up to
Pole Star, headed her as they breasted the hill to finish,
passed her in the next few strides, and won by 3 lengths,
Polestar beating December by four lengths for second
place. Rogerthorpe was fourth, about two lengths be
hind December ; Fulbeck was a bad fifth, and Yorkshire
Grey was close up with him ; Malacca was seventh, and
Mr. Sykes next. The next lot comprised Poodle, Cerva,
Speed the Plough, Brother to Grey Tommy, Winkfield,
Middleton, Prince of Orange, and Mary. Behind those
a long way were Flatterer and Cotswold.

Amidst the hurry and confusion of the " Cesarewitch
day " no time was left us to make remarks on the ra,c
ing. The particulars given above, however, will so ffi
ciently show how the race was run ; and the fact of Ven-
geance, the first horse, having belonged to Palmer, and
Polestar, the second horse, to Cook, has furnished uossip,
and people who are found of curious coincidences with an
interesting subject of conversation. The winner was once
called The Chicken, but was named Vengeance by his
present owner " Mr. Edwards," who bought it at the
sale of Palmer's blood stock. Pole Star was purchased
by Mr. Snewing at the sale of Cook's horses.
The weather was fine, and the attendance of company
numerous. A special train, which was despatched from
Newmarket under the superintendence of Mr. Watt, of
the traffic department, about one hour after the last race,
performed the return journey in a satisfactory manner.
