MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new descrip-
tion of ARTIFICIAL TEET H, fixed without springs, wires,
or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth
as not to be distinguished fro n the originals by the closest
observer; they will never change colour or decay. and will
be found superior to any teeth ever before used. Thts
method does not require the extraction of roots, or any pain-
ful operation, and wilt support and preserve teeth that are
loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica-
tion. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful
in mastication.

Fordham made a last and determined effort, but the fa-
vourite could do no more than make a dead heat of it.
Deciding Heat-11 to 8 on Athena.
Fordham again selected the higher ground, and made
the running with a slight lead of the Duke's mare, until
reaching the dip, when the pair closed, and came on
together at a moderate pace. On the top of the hill they
commenced to race, the favourite having a slight advan-
tage, but Leonie getting on equal terms with her at the
centre of the Stand, passed her and won by a length and a
half amid deafening cheers.
The Donnington Stakes of 1,000 soya each, h 1; for two-
year-old colts; Bst 121 b each ; each subscriber to name

Marquis of Hastings's Mamoluke, Bst 121 b ...(Fordham) 1
Duke of Hamilton's Innerdale, Bst 121 h ...(A. Edwards) 2
Betting-6 to 4on Mameluke.
The race was invested with almost as much interest as
the preceding ono, and the preliminary canter of the
"dark" one—Matneluke—was watched With the keenest
anxiety, but opinions wore generally favourable. Ford-
ham again selected the higher ground, having Innerdale
on his whip hand, and the moment the word was given he
assumed a slight lead of his antagonist. The pair however
lay well together till the half-distance, where a desperate
race commenced, Innerdale momentarily appearing to have
the best of it, as he mieceeeded in getting his head in
front, but Fordham finishing with immense determination
won literally in the last stride by a heads a result which
elicited loud cheering.
The Bibury Stakes (handicap) of 5 sovs each, with 50
added by the club; the second to save his stake; to be
ridden by members of the CIO; jockeys 71b extra ;,.last

The following also ran :—The Beadle, Lozenge, Mus-
keteer, Black Prince, Panacea, Nunquam Dormio.
Betting-5 to 2 agst Lord Ronald, 4to 1 agst Ailesbury,
11 to 2 agst Lucifer, 100 to 15 agst The Beadle, 7 to 1

agst Panacea.
Ailesbury cut out the work clear of Lucifer, Panacea,
and Nunquam Dormio till they were opposite the
Danebury clump, where Lucifer took up the run-
ning, having a lead of Panacea, Musketeer, Ailes-
bury, and Lord Ronald, the last of all being Lozenge. This
order was maintained with but trifling variation in their
respective positions until coming up the hill for the turn,
when Lord Ronald headed Ailesbury and Musketeer, Nun-
quam Dormio being next. At this point, in the extreme
rear, as they rounded the turn, Lord Ronald took second
place, and when fairly in the straight assumed a clear lead
of Lucifer on the left, Musketeer in the centre of the course,
with Lozenge and Beadle on the left. Of this lot Mus-
keteer was the first to give way, and Ailesbury came up
on the lower ground. The Duke of Beaufort's horse held
the advantage until about a dozen strides from the chair,
when Fordham made a rush and 'won cleverly by a neck
from Lucifer, who headed Lord Ronald at the Stand ; the
last-named was a bad third, Beadle fourth, Panacea fifth,
Nunquam Dormio sixth, Musketeer seventh, and Black
Prince last.

The Ninth Biennial Stakes of 10 sovs each, with 100
added, for two-year-olds; colts Bst 101 b, fillies Bat 5113 ;

Mr. Sutton's Ironmaster, Bst 101 b (Challoner) 3

The following- also ran :—Aquila, Lord Palmerston,
Bearskin, Prince Louis, Tibicen, Chic, Mortimer, Bird-
seeker, Lady Seymour, and Carlos.
Betting-11 to 8 agst Europa, 9 to 2 agst Mortimer, 7
to 1 agst Lord Palmerston, 10 to 1 agst Ironmaster, 11' to
1 agst See-Saw, and 25 to 1 agst Carlos.
After the competitors had got to the post it was dis
.covered that Europa had weighed out as Bst 21b, claiming
a 31b allowance for being out of a dam that nev. r bred a
winner. This was found to bo incorrect, and the favourite
cantered back and weighed out without the allowance.
Tho start was thus delayed for some time, and was further
protracted by a false one. Eventually the lot were de-
spatched, Aquila showing the way, attended by Lord Pal-
merston, Lady Seymour, Chic, Europa, and Ironmaster,
this lot running in close company, the last pair being
See-Saw and Boarskin. With the exception of
Tibicen, who Was left at the post, they all ran is
this order until rounding the turn into the straight, where
Chic bolted out of the course. Europa, who was now on
the inside, drew to the front, closely attended by Mortimer,

Ironmaster, Lord Palmerston. and Aquila. the latter how-
ever, giving way before reaching the distance, where See-
Saw, who ba.'l been gradually improving her position,
singled herself out on the extreme left. At the commence-
ment of the enclosure Lord Palmerston and Mortimer gave
way, leaving the race apparently to Europa and Ironmaster,
the favourite taking a clear lead in the last half-dozen
strides, but Cannon, finishing with a rush, was only de-
feated by a neck; Ironmaster was beaten a length from
second, Mortimer was fourth, Lord Palmerston fifth, Carlos
sixth, Birdseeker seventh, Prince Louis eighth, Lady Sey-
mour ninth, Bearskin tenth, and Aquila eleventh. Chic
and Tibicen walked in.

A Plate of 50 sovs; two year olds 7st, three Bst 91b, four

Marquis of Hastings' Canute (£100), 2 yrs, Est 4lb (Butler) 3
The following also ran :—Secrecy, Primula, Haymarket,
Mongrel, and Kaffir's Land.
Betting-2 to 1 each agst Canute and Mongrel, 6to 1
agst Paris, 10 to 1 agst Haymarket, 100 to 7 agst Primula.
Paris delayed the start a long time by refusing to join
his horses, eventually bolting, and having to bo led back
to the post. When the flag was lowered Haymarket held
a slight lead of Canute on the left, and Mongrel and Kaffir's
Land on the right, Paris being last off, and bringing up
the rear. After going a quarter of a mile Canute took up
the running, followed by Signet, Mongrel, and Paris to
the Stand, where Canute hung fearfully, and a collision
seemed inevitable. This, however, was fortunately
avoided, and the raco became a match between Signet and
Paris ; and although the latter tried to cut it, Cannon
riding with great patience and ability, won cleverly by a'
neck. Canute was third, defeated half a length only;
Mongrel was fourth, Secrecy fifth, Primula sixth, Hay-
market next, and Kaffir's Land last.

The winner was sold to Mr. G. Reynolds for 200 guineas.
Mr. J. B. Day claimed Primula, Mr. Hope Canute, and the
Marquis of Hastings Signet.

Betting.-3 to 1 agst Cock of the Walk-5 to 1 each
agst St. Ronan, Sec-saw, and Rabican-10 to 1 agst Mac-
duff-12 to 1 each agst The Fawn and Wild Blood.
Wild Blood made play slightly in advance of Rabican,
next to whom, in a cluster on the higher ground, came St.
Ronan, Angus, and See-saw, and they ran thus to the dip,
when Wild Blood gave way, and Rabican was left in
advance of St. Ronan, Angus, and See-saw till opposite
the. Stand, where Fordham brought See-saw out, and
finishing with a rush, won cleverly by three parts of a
length. A length separated second and third, Angus was
fourth, The Fawn fifth. Several lengths off came Citron,
Wild Blood, and Macduff, the two last being the Norna
colt and Logarithm.

Betting.-6 to 4 agst Master Robert-2 to 1 agst Merry
Monarch.

Golden Leaf made the running, followed by Quirina,
Master Robert., and Merry Monarch, the trio lying well
together, Fairfield, who whipped round them when the
flag fell, bringing up the rear. This order was maintained
to the distance, when Merry Monarch shot out and won
cleverly by a neck from Master Robert ; Quirina finished a
bad third, Golden Leaf fourth, and Fairfield cantered in
last.

The winner was sold to Mr. Mackenzie for 170 guineas.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.—
Disease is common to the palace and the cottage, and the
best remedies are available alike by the tenants of each.
Holloway's well-esteemed ointment and pills can be ob-
tained everywhere at a moderate cost, and prove them-
selves the poor man's best friend when he is simply ailing,
or, worse still, when the severity of his suffering forbids
the pursuance of his usual employment. Gout, rheumatic
gout, rheumatism, lumbago, nervous affections, neuralgia,
sciatica, stitches in the side, and pains in the joints yield
to Holloway's treatment. In these two medicaments are
combined all that science and invention can supply for the
relief of suffering humanity, and the restoration of the
afiiicted to ease, strength, and activity,
