THE FRENCH DERBE—Many failures were made by
the amateur starter wto endeavoured to get the horses
off for the "French Derby,"and we understand that, in
consequence, the French Jockey Club have dt-tertoined
upon securin:r the services of Mr. Edward Ilibburd, of
Avert for rho future.

BLINK BONNY.—This mare is slowly recovering, and
she has been pronounced out of danger. She is now en
shied to eat with some ease, although the ulcers in her
throat are not yet removed.
FORTUNATE JOCKEY.—WeIk, the jockey, who in
mounts alone has had more than his share of good for-
tune, has received many presents, in addition to the
1.000 to 10 which Sir Joseph himself betted against
Fitz Roland and Beadsman. In a few months he has
made more money than some of the most talented lite-
rary and professional men in a-lifetime by laborious men-
tal employment.—Sunday Times.

SALE OF BLOOD STOCK AT HAMPTON-
COURT—SATURDAY.
The annual sale of her Majesty's yearlings took place
at Hampton-court, on Saturday last, instead cf at Tat-
tersall's, as on former occasions. There were 19 1 ts,
and perhaps handsomer or better looking animals bred
for the turf were never put up to public auction. There
was a strong muster of trainers, horse owners, and pa-
trons of the turf, and after a while the bidding became
very brisk. A sumptuous collation at the lodge of Mr.
Ransom, the stud groom, was provided, and after it had
been duly attended to by the visitors, the proceedings
commenced in the Royal paddocks, Mr. Tattersall as•
tending his rostrum just in,front of the boxes of Orlando
and Barnton. The " lot" was put up at about 20 mi-
nutes after one o'clock. The colt by Orlando out of
Eulogy, colt by Orlando out of Distaffiva, the brother
to British Remedy, the colt by Melbourne out of Tarella,
and the filly by Loup Garou out of Varity, occasioned
some spirited competition. The lastmentioned, decid-
edly the most promising we have yet seen of Loup-
Garou's stock, was rapidly run up to 780 guinea,, and
John Scott aid John Day opposed one soother with
considerable spirit, Danebury ultimately outbidding !
Whitewall House. The Queen's yearlings were gene-
rally admired, and realised high prices. Last year the
Royal yearlings, 16 in number, fetched 2,710 guineas,
being an average of 160 guineas. On Saturday 4,165
guineas were realised by the lot r,f 19, showing an ave-
rage of about 219 guineag. After the Royal sale an in-
terval of an hour occurred heft): e Mr, Greville's young.
stems were brought to the hammer, and the coin' any
adjourned to the shade of the cbesnut trees, neat the
Green, where the purchasers and lookers-on chatted and
lounged until Mr. Tattersall and the team of " juveniles"
made their appearance. As in the first sale, the auction
was supported with much spirit. Nana Sahib, Nicholas,
Refugee, and Chirp were all handsome racing like colts;
but Chirp, low, lengthy, and short-legged, for all the
world like a "stayer," was, to cur thinking, the very
beet Colt offered to the public on Saturday. AIL Gre-

vine's 12 yearlings realistd 2,772 guinsag, averag,:vg
230 guineas each.
