SPORTING NOTES.

The first of the three great autumn meetings at head-
quarters commences to-morrow, on which day several
important stakes will be decided, the principal one
being the Groat Eastern Railway Handicap, for which
there are no less than eighty-eight subscribers. To
discuss their different merits is quite out of the ques-
tion, and I shall content myself, and I hope also your
subscribers, by going over the list and selecting those
most favourably weighted, although from the extraor-
dinary performance of Bounceaway, carrying Bst 71b in
the Portland Plato at Doncaster, there is no telling what
a really goad horse can do over a short distance of ground.
For that reason I think Seville, who has a. great turn of
speed, is not out of the race. Vespasian has run very badly
lately, otherwise he reads to have a great chance. Bis-
marck is sure to take his own part in the race, and the
same may be said of King Victor, both of whom are very
fast. Mount Vahan() is well in, but has not p tee enough.
Monarch of the Glen has been in lavender since Good-
wood, last year, and as he is the only representative
Mr. Naylor has in the Cambridgeshire he will prßbably
run forward for both events. The }linden stable have
Ulphus,Froemason,Mistlotoe, Icicle, GipsyQueen, and Sister
to Vedette engaged, of which lot I expect to sea Free-
mason prove himself most dangerous, but ho cannot .win
on his Doncaster form. Leases and S'7 Oliver next attract
attention, and, from their running collaterally with Bounce-
away at Doncaster, it should be a close contest between
them here. The only other which I consider worth notice
is Chignon. The Grand Duke Michael Stakes is likely to
afford one of the most exciting contests of the day, as
amongst the animals engaged are Hermit (71b extra),
Julius, Friponnier, and Hippie. The first named, with
his penalty, can have no chance with the Duko of New-
castle's horse, and though Friponnier and Hippie, who are
both remarkably well; are se-e to make him gallop, my
vote must be for J uuus. Of the thirty-six subscribers
for the Hopeful Stakes there are several dilate dark divi-
sion, but nothing sufficiently favourable has reached me to
allude to their chance, and I shall therefore select the fol-
lowing public performers to furnish the winner, viz. :
Athena (9lb extra), Tregeagle (61b extra), "Vale Royal (61b
extra), Balsamo (31b extra), The Parson (31b extra). Of
these I have a preference for BALSAM() and ATHENA, but
more particularly for the first-named horse, who has
less penalty to carry, because the race he won at Bath, and
also theßeadingStakes, where he heat Gritnston, were over
this short distance of ground (half smile). It should not be
overlooked that in the Woodcote Stakes Balsamo made
the running, and looked especially dangerous to the dis-
tance, where he was beaten. The Eighteenth Triennial Pro-
duce Stakes is not likely to furnish more than half a dozen
competitors, which will probably be Savernake, Ischia,
Westwick, Loybourne, Strathconan, and Miss Havelock ;
and as I am dubious of Savernake being properly prepared
to go the distance, above two miles, I anticipate STRATII-
CONAN'S number going up when the race is over. The S weep-
stakes of 1,000 sous each will go to ST. RONAN, as notwith-
standing his want of preparation he is quite good enough
to beat ANGUS. The Buckenham Stakes is a gift to Lord
Falmouth, who will most likely be represented by PEARL-
FEATHER. There are six matches also set down for deci-
sion on Tuesday, and I prefer HOUSEMAID v. Manse, SEE
SAW v. Clairon, CHALLENGE v. Stokeley, LADY SEAHAM
v. Westmorland, SIGNET v. Dr. Syntax, and SILENUS v.
Tremble.
Wednesday will afford ono of those quiet day's sport
which are so especially agreeable to the habitues of Now-
market Heath. VAUBAN being engaged in the Nineteenth
Triennial Produce Stakes, and without a penalty, can have
no difficulty in securing it for his noble owner. He is also
engaged in the St. Leger Stakes, but with 121 b extra to
carry is not likely to put in an appearance, at any rate
successfully. Being such a valuable stake, wol;,h close
upon £1,200, it is probable Blinkhoolie will give us a taste
of his quality, which ought to be first-rate from the largo
amount of money he has been entrusted with for the
Cosarewitch. Trocadoro must also have a good chance,
should ho run for it. Owain Glendwyr, having 71b.
allowance, will take a groat deal of beating, but although
she has 51b penalty I shall choose Ilirru. Tho Granby
Stakes is likely to go to JENNY, unless Head Centro should
beat her. .1 think Indian star will beat Confederate is
their match.

Concerning the events for Thursday, I expect to see
TREGEAGLE win the Twentieth Triennial Produce Stakes,
and should ho be defeated it will be, I think, by In.vr,lA.
There is no question Suffolk is one of the best two year
year olds out, but much as I adm,re the horse I have an
equally good opinion of the Einfs merits, and should
they moot in the Rutland Stakes, as I believe no horse
of his age can give the latter Sib, I should:xecommend him
to be backed. Tho acceptances are not pt declared for
the Handicap Swoepstak-es, and it is hotter therefore to
leave it alone. Of course JuLius will beat Challenge in
their match.

It is no use tiring the patience of your readers by going
over the performances of the horses engaged in The Octo-
ber Handicap, which is the piece de resi,,tance of Friday. A
good many of the animals will probably have met in other
races during the earlier part of the week, from which a
far safer lino may be drawn. Meanwhile, the following
six seem to mo most formidable, and I estimate their
chance in the order named: —Lord Ronald, Vespasian,
IV.roughton, Miss Harriette, King Victor, and Safety. I
think ATHENA is most trustworthy for the Forlorn
Stakes, PYRENEES for the Sweepstakes of 30 sovs oach,
20 ft, ATHENA for the Sweepstakes of 300 sovs each, and
LEONIE for the Sweepstakes of 30 sovs each, h ft. As
regards the Matches, LIFE GUARDSMAN ought to beat
Silenus, and the other two I know nothing about.

A FRESH MAN.

From the Newmarket Correspondent of the Racing Times,

The commencement of the Newmarket Autumn Meet-
ings reminds us that the racing season of 1867 is drawing
to a close; and looking through the list of horses adver-
tised for sale, I am afraid some of the noblemen and gen-
tlemen must either have had a bad time of it or aro be-
coming disgusted with the Turf. Never in the history of
racing has public form been 53 upset as during the past
few months. Achievement's defeat in the Oaks was

nothing to compare to what wo have seen on several

occasions since then. Perhaps the most mysterious of all
the horses that rau during tho past season is old Moulsey,
whom we saw canter away from a field of good horses at
Brighton, and then suffer an easy defeat by Strathconan
at York. Bees wing's running at War wick made her owner
and some of the sporting writers think that she was the
best animal of the year, but they found out ther mistake

at Doncaster, whore she was nowhere when she met horses
that could gallop, and she proved what I have stated on
several occasions, that the quality of the horses we have

had running this year are the worst lever remember. The
racing of the past week requires no comment from me,
therefore I shall proceed at once to offer a few remarks
on the racing at headquarters. Never in the memory of
the eldest inhabitant 3f Newmarket has there been so
many horses in training as at the present time ; most of the
stables have not room enough for their own horses,
and what is to be done with the fresh ones when they
arrive is a question often asked here. There are no less
than 14 races to be gone through to-morrow, and the most

interesting one will be the mooting of Hermit, Julius, Fii-
ponnier, and Hippia. Julius has done no work since Don-
castor until Friday morning, when he had a good gallop
on the racecourse, and should ho go on all right until
Tuesday he will give Friponnier some trouble, as I don't
think Hermit can give either of them Vbs. The Baron's

mare is sure to run well, but Friponnier and Julius
_ _.

I shall expect to see run first and second, and Julius
will just do hira in the last few strides from the chair.
The Great Eastern Handicap is a difficult race to deal with,
and without going into a long rigmarole of what is well ;t1
and likely to win, I shall stand on Pericles and Sir
Oliver, as, from what I can see; the former is the best of
Mat Dawson's, and Sir Oliver will got a place. TI-o
.Hopeful Stakes will be won by Athena, and Westwick
will win the Four-year-old Triennial, St. Ronan the 1,000
Soya Sweepstakes, and Courtma.ntlo the 13uckenham
Stakes. Seven races are sot down for Wednesday, and a
match. Vauban ought to win the Nineteenth Triennial,
and Hippia the St. Leger. North Marston will win the
Granby Stakes. The Twentieth Triennial, on Thursday,
will be won by Tregoagle or Micas. Suffolk will only
have to beat the Earl in the Rutland Stakes, and as the
Baron's horse looks and goes so well just now, I expect to
son him win. Julius will not have much difficulty to dis-
pose of Challenge in the match. Should Joseph Dawson
pull out Miss Harriette I shall expect her to win the Oc-
tober Handicap, as I believe there is a good race in her
when wanted, and next to her I fancy Lord Ronald. The
other races to be run for on Friday will so much depend
on previous running that I shall not hazard an opinion.
There has boon some brisk betting on tho Cosarowitch
during the past week. Honesty is decidedly first favourite,
a position he does not deserve. From his running at
Warwick it isquite certain the gallant Admiral did not see
all that was going on thorn, although ho was perched up
aloft looking out for squalls; had ho noticed the fine,
raking, good-looking Honesty ho would not havo put such
a light impost on his back. As I stated last week all those
above Lothario aro out of it. Dalesman is indulged with
top weight —9st. 41b. ; he could not win with Bst on his
back, us he is only a moderato horse. Ho earned a good
name at Ascot, where ho boat Gomera in the Queen's
Plato, but the mare had to make all the running,
which dons not suit her. Although he got close to Lec-
turer at Stamford, the latter was as stale as he was at
Huntingdon, where he was last ; and one would have
thought after the defeat of Gomera at Warwick it would
have taken a few lbs. off the Baron's horse. Does the
gallant Admiral think ho was pullod at Brighton, whore
he was beaten a quarter of a mile from Mculsey. Pearl
Diver has too much weight, and Harry Brailsford is a
cripple. Scamander could not win with any weight—
ho is the worst horse that over won the Northampton
Stakes. Tormentor is only a moderato animal, although
she won the Oaks, but she boat nothing, as all behind her
having turned out only very moderate. Sealskin I onto
thought a good horse, but I am afraid he has got a will of
his own, as it took Custaneo all his time to keep him going
in the Queen's Plato at York ; and as he only boat a mode-
rate field I must discard him on this occasion. The
readers of the Racing Times must know by this time my
opinion about Julius, as he is a race horse, and must have a
great chance 9f winning, U he represents the stable ; but

from the betting one would suppose Honesty is better, and
Julius will tell thorn, unless .they should make another
mistake, as they did with Wild Agnes and Clarice before
the City and Suburban Handicap. The Duke of York is a
good-looking horse, and if Charley Blanton fancies him he
is worth backing. Patricien and Van Amburgh I have no
fancy for. Endsleigh has too much weight. She might
have a chance with 7st less. Aches, the winner of the Cam-
bridge last year, has no chance, if she has been running on
the square this year; and the same may be said about
Lady Vane. Archimedes has lost bis form, and likewise
his tomper, and is not to be trusted. Tynedale has got 71b.
too much. Why give him more weight than Blinkhoolie?
I suppose because he ran second to a moderate horse in
the Goodwood Cup. Honey Moon, Young Espress, and
Pintail have no chance. Elinkhoolio is nicely weighted,
and Mr. Chaplin can tell whether ho can brat Jitlins
or not, as The Hermit will answer the question
correctly. 10iniiing Girl has got too much weight
from her running lately, as she has not run within
ilib of the form she showed us in the Oaks when she ran
a d gad heat with Achievement. Etoilo Filante is well iu,
and is sure t) run well. Thy lt!s.m.., Mon'goubert, and
0 tvaiu Glyndwr have too much weight. Elghaston could
not win with a postage stamp on his back. This is the
horse wo have heard so much of lately that has been
helping the Hermit to win the Legor every morning, on
the Lime Kilns at Newmarket. Panacea, Nicola, Vigorous,
Union Jack, and La Dauphine are all moderate, and won't
do"in such company as Julius. Proserpino may make a
noise in the betting before the day, but I don't think she
has any chance of winning. Grand Cross is not badly in
for a horse that was once thought to have a chance for the
Derby. Annie Laurie colt is a moderato horse, and could
not win with sst 71b. Sportsman has gone back in the
betting I presume from Booswing- running so bad in the
Doncaster Cup, as she was tried with Mr. Moseley's horse
at Warwick on the Saturday before she went to Doncaster,
and from what I know of Mr. M. ho would not back
a horse for a fiver unless ho thought he was suit) of
winning ; therefore I can't recommend him when Hs
owner wants to hedge his money. Roquefort is a fair,
honest horse, but not quite good enough for such horses
as he hewill have to meet on this occasion. Pirate Chief is
a very moderato performer, as he ran very badly at Lewes.
Honesty is a good-looking horse, and no ono has a better
trial horse than Julius ; and if ho keeps well up to the day,
and has the confidence of the stable, ho will about win.
Feodor is another good-looking horse, and has shown
some fair form, and might run into a place. Potomac
made a noise in the market last..year at ono time for this
race, but I don't know what form ho is iu at present,
therefore I cannot recommend him on this occasion. King
Victor is the next that takes my fancy, as he showed us
last year at Huntingdon that he could run well. Stokeley,
ou his public form, can have no chance. The Priest ran a
good third to the Palmer in the Ascot Derby ; and I
know there was a strong commission sent into the market
to back him for the Yorkshire Handicap, but from some
cause or other it was stopped. I am told he is a good-
locking horse, and as his weight won't stop him, I have no
doubt he will be heard of before the day. Safety I know
nothing of. Pepper's Ghost is a bad horse, Duchess can't
stay, and Aratourer has only the reputation of being
a good horse in private : he may be a race horse
for all I know, but I cannot recommend him. Cannon Ball
is the next that is likely to be backed, as ho showed us
in the Goodwood Nursery last year that he can stay
King's Cross is not badly in, and is sure to run well. The
colt by Yellow Jack out of Treachery is one of Tommy
Hughes's yearlings. lam told ho is a good-looking horse
and a good goer. There may be something in him, and if
the stable back him he may see a short price, and will most
likely run well. I have likewise hoard a good account of
The Usurper, and should advise him to be looked after.
The remainder on the list I have no fancy for, .although
Guy of Warwick has found his way into the betting. I
see he is doing his work in blinkers, but he has no more
chance of winning than the old Brewer. Now it will be
seen from the foregoing remarks that I have most fancy tor
Lothario, Blinkhoolio, the Yellow Jack colt, and Honesty;
but I think it would be prudent to wait a little longer, and
not back the latter at such a short price, as he is a great
overgrown horse, and one is not quite sure that ho will
stand one of Mat Dawson's strong preparations, for at the
present time his hocks look rather suspicious; therefore 1
would sooner stand the Baron's horse and Bliukhoolie, and
prefor them in the order named. Since writing the above
I have seen Honesty out walking about the heath, and if he
does not go to 20 to 1 before the week is out 1 shall be very
much surprised.

smashed, their blood and brains being scattered over the
engine. Their remains were collected and ecnveyod away
to await an inquest. No blame is attached to the company,
as, although it is a level crossing, a bridge has been erected
for the convonionco and onfoty of tko

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE—This Day

VICTORIA CLUB BETTING.

A large attendance, and business active. The Great
Eastern Handicap was freely speculated on, Pericles being
installed favourite conseqent on several heavy investments.
7 to 1 was at one time only obtainable, but at the close 9 to
1 was freely offered on the field. Mount Palatine, Mistletoe,
and Sir Oliver were each in steady request, while the others
quoted below met with support. Honesty for the Cesare-
witch was remarkably firm, advancing to 7 to 1, at which
price a hundred in one hand would have been invested, but
layers were shy. Blinkhoolie at 100 to 8 often found friends,
but 11 to 1 WJA the current prie at th:3 0103 e. Lothario
again was in strong demand, the noticeable feature of the
other transactions being in cnnn:•ction with Proserpina,
who, by a ivell known commissioner, was backei to win
over two thous.tud, but, singular t) say, she became a
wortio favourite. Pries will he found below :

SPEECH BY BARON VON BEI' ST.

REICIIENBERG, Sept. 18.

At a dinner given here to-day in honour of Baron
vonßeust, his excellency delivered a lengthy speech,
in the course of which he spoke of his past political
career in Saxony. He called to mind the vicissitudes
of fortune and the changes of public favour and
disfavour of which he had been the object, as well as
the marks of sympathy lavished upon him upon his
return from the London Conference and at the grand
festival of the choral societies at Dresden. Scarcely
a year afterwards he found himself an exile, deli-
vered over to the attacks of his enemies, and it was
only with difficulty a few friends could be found who
would consent to acknowledge or defend
"It is not without intention," continued Baron
von Beust, " that I recall these recollections. Not-
withstanding all these trials, I have neither lost faith
in mankind nor confidence in myself, and 1 have not
been mistaken in either respect. The honourable
summons addressed to me by an august Sovereign
has opened to me a vast field of action, in which I
have received numerous proofs of public confidence,
of which I entertain a grateful remembrance. In
my native country people look upon me at present
as a dead man of whom they like to think kindly.
Still, in the position I now hold, I find many ad-
versaries, and even enemies, but neither their num-
ber nor their ardour will be able to discourage me.
Constant and persevering, carrying out my Sove-
reign's wishes so long as I preserve his confidence,
I shall pursue the course upon which I have entered,
not with the idea of vanquishing and confounding
my adversaries, but in the hope that a day will come
when all will join hands in friendship for the com-
mon service of the country upon the basis of the re-
covered constitution. For this reason I recommend
those who act with me to calmness and moderation.
Let us respect our adversaries and conciliate their
opinions."
The speaker called to mind that the country
through which he had just passed had been the
theatre of fratricidal war. He could not forget that
he had himself been accused of having brought
about that struggle, but he said that he repudiated
this unjust accusation, which history would never
confirm. Baron Von Beust declared that he brought
a warmly German heart into Austria, and that he
had strugled to enable the German element to retain
its place in the empire.
"I wish," he continued, " that people should
honour the German element in Austria, which is
inseparable from her august dynasty and the
brightest pages in her history, as well as the grandest
hopes for her future as a civilising agent. But if any
man should imagine I have come to Austria to show
the Austrian Germans the way of becoming untrue
to her, that man would be a self-deceiver, and the
immense majority of the German populations in
Austria think as I do. Whoever preserves warm
affection towards his brother by race, while remain-
ing faithful to his native soil, will be respected and
esteemed ; but the unhappy malcontents who deny
their own households excite pity and are dupes. The
Germans will draw far closer the ties attaching
other nationalities to Austria by showing they have
faith both in the country and in her future. May
these words also penetrate to places where we be-
hold the singular spectacle that those who talk the
loudest about the country of their origin, about
historical tradition and ancient faith, and who con-
sider all these as threatened, nevertheless labour at
importing amongst them a foreign country, a
modern idea, and a new faith. May they think of
what they do ! How could the King, whom one
wishes to see wear a venerated crown, enter the
walls of a city still loudly echoing the strains of a
hymn dedicated to a foreign Sovereign? Do not
these zealots themselves desire to live in peace and
harmony with the races inhabiting this vast empire,
towards which they direct their gaze ? Whence
should come peace and concord, if what is inter-
preted in other places as unity and respect is made
use of among us to glorify discord and resistance?
It is consoling to reflect that these are only isolated
and passing facts, that may seem strong in our eyes,
but can never alienate from us our Austrian bro-
thers. Before, as after, we will offer them our
hands. Nobody dreams of infringing well-founded
rights and legitimate claims. Liberty of action is
granted them and secured as soon as they aid in
constructing the edifice we raise upon the basis of
constitutional liberty. Rest assured that we are
working assiduously at this edifice, the crowning of
which guarantees to us the consolidation of the
empire at home and its power abroad. In order,
however, that it should succeed, we must cease,
above all, to doubt and to despair. The pessimism
I found upon my arrival in Austria has diminiAed ;
many things are improved and will continue to im-
prove. Why, then, this discouragement ? Why
these anxious glances towards the future ? Let us
first be just to him in whose hand Providence has
placed the sceptre of this ancient and venerable
empire. Let us not forget and not misunderstand
the strength of mind he must have had not to
lose courage, when the heaviest strokes of faith
have fallen blow after blow upon his head,
and yet he has never failed to acquit himself with
the same devotion to his august duties."
Baron von Beust concluded his speech by pointing
out that the situation of Austria had become more
favourable. Notwithstanding the defeats she had
suffered, she had received testimonies of respect and
sympathy from foreign Powers. Her voice had been
a weight thrown into the scale of peace Her people
had recovered themselves after two wars following
in rapid succession. " If fortune returns," exclaimed
the speaker, " the world will see of what the people
of Austria are capable. It is the people, above all,
we desire should profit by the benefits, in order to
increase their prosperity, for liberty prospers and
takes root only among laborious nations who have
made provision against want."
