SALE OF 7HE MIDDLE PARK YEAR-

LINCS.
______-•---

The first lot of yearling.; from this now celebrated stud,
comprising .12 numbers, was sold on Saturday, on the lawn
at Middle Park, by Mr. Edmund Tattersall. Great as Mr.
Blenkiron's success has been hitherto, the recent sale has
comparatively eclipsed its predecessors ; for, although one
yearling at the sale last year brought 5004,5.. more than any
one sold on Saturday, yet the average of the recent sale
has never been equalled, and is a convincing proof of the
success that attends patience and attention, coupled with
sound judgment. The yearlings, it is almost unnecessary
to say, were brought out in superb condition, and every
one was sold, the 42 lots making in the aggre,;ato 19,565
guineas, or an average of 466 guineas. The attendance
was most numerous, amounting to between 2,oooand 3,000
persons, and the ring was surrounded by the drags of
most of the leading Turfites, accompanied by their friends.
Previous to commencing the business of the day, Mr.
Blenkiron entertained his friends and the public
generally at a magnificent luncheon, laid out in a
marquee erected at the pleasure-grounds at the rear of the
house, where everything was in the greatest profusion, the
viands and sparkling ;fines receiving ample justice from
the numerous company assembled. The largest purchasers
were the Marquis of Hastings, Sir F. Johnstone, Mr. Pad-
wick, Mr. Chaplin, and Mr. S. Thellusson. The Marquis
of Hastings obtained several lots, including the colt by
Stockwell—Marsellaise, for 1,650 gs., which was the se-
cond highest price of the sale. Sir F. Johnstone bought
a grand filly in the Sister to Marksman for 1,000g5., which
price was also obtained for two other fillies, that. by New-
minster—Diomedia, knocked down to Mr. Chaplin, and
another by Flying Dutchnin.,-7.-..Dierlettn, bought by Mr.
Padwick, who, it was unierstood, was buying for the
Duke of Hamilton. The highest price obtained was for
the Brother to Leonie, by Newminster —a Himpton mare,
a magnficent colt, with all the appearance of a race-
horse. After some spirited bidding between the Mar-
quis of Hastings, Captain Machell, and Mr. Padwick, the
latter gentleman obtained him for the Duke of Hamilton
for 2,000g5., having previously bought the Sister to St.
Ronan for 750 gs. Mr. Thellusson gave 900ga. for the Blair
Athol colt, which appeared quite enough for him. The
sale was concluded before 5 o'clock, and was the most suc-
cessful one ever remarked, The second sale will be held
on Saturday, July 6, at Middle Park. The names of the
purchasers, with the prices obtained, aro given below :

AQUATICS.

AUDAX BOAT CLUB.
On Saturday this club rowed a pair-oared race in ou

rigged gigs, the course being from Putney Aqueduct to
Hammersmith. The start took place at nearly high water,
having been very much delayed by other races over the
same course. The following were the crews and re-
sult : _

Station 3.—Messrs. E. Lovegrove, H. Cosedge (stroke),
W. Kinchen (cox.) 1
Station I.—Messrs H. L. Cocksedge, J. F. Hale (stroke),
B. J. Cater (cox.) 0
Station 2.—Messrs. A. Bodloy, A. Francis (stroke), and
C. G. Hobbs (cox.) 0
Stations counting from the Surrey shore. The crews
started well togethei, and continued so until nearing the
Point, where Mr. Kinchen's crew were leading, Mr. Hobbs
being second, and Mr. Cater last. From here Mr. Cater's
crew began to gain, and Passing Hobbs's near the Crab
Tree, went after the others, but failing to reach them, Mr.-
Kinchen's crew won by about two lengths. Mr. Chad
wick, of the Stella Club, acted as umpire in a four of that
club.

SMILERS' RACE.
The scullers'yace on Saturday between James Taylor
Newcastle, and Joseph Heath, to row from Putney to
Barnes, for £5O aside, was brought to an abrupt termina-
tion by a foul. Heath had the best station, but got off
badly, and Taylor shot sway at his well-known extra.
ordinary rapid starting pace, which had made him the fa-
vourite at 2 to 1, and was nearly three lengths a head at
the Point, where, his speed becoming abated, Heath came
up at a good lasting speed, and rowed right into him. Mr
Ireland immediately gave the race to Taylor.

CAB FARES.—Liverpool has just set London a
capitol example. The cabs in the city of the Mersey have
hitherto charged, in comparison with those of other places,
an exorbitant fare ; but a committee appointed by the Town
Council to deal with the subject has comep the same de-
cision which we have repeatedly sugpsted as the only one
calculated to meet the difficulty in London itself. It has
decided that every proprietor may charge his own rate,
but that he must have the rate plainly stated on the out-
side of the vehicle. Liverpool is to have the advantage of
free trade in cabs, and is thus taking precedence of the
Great Metropolis, not only in sagacity and energy, but in
practical comfort and convenience. How long will London
be contented with tho inconvenience and discomfort at-
tending the present system ?—Daily Telegraph.
[ADVERTISEMENT.] —Holloway's Pills.—Prostration of
Strength.—When the system is weak and the
unless some
purifying and strengthening means be resorted to to avert
the threatening mischief. In such cases no treatment
can equal the treatment by these excellent kills. No other
plan can be pursued so well devised for ejecting all im-
purities from the blood without straining or weakening tho
constitution. Holloway's pills so fortify the stomach and
regulate the liver that they raise the capability of diges-
tion, and thus create new power. This is the reason why.
Holloway's pills have gained their present popularity, and
why they have been lauded throughout the globe as a
fresh source of life and strength. •
