EPSOM, WEDNESDAY, May 22.
The Derby day in 1867 will long be remembered by all
turfinen, not only by reason of the astounding vicissitudes
in the betting, but for the triumph of "poor Hermit," as
he was derisively called only a few days since, when his
chance seemed forlorn indeed. The air on the Downs from
noon was at times piercingly raw and cold, and the holi-
day makers were suggestively silent by the time they
reached Epsom. In fact, the "third winter" evidently
froze the general current of gaiety. Beyond all doubt the
Derby day of this yeaig as far as company was concerned,
was the most dull and dispiriting on record, and the forest
of umbrellas that cropped up in every direction showed
that the visitors had sensibly come prepared for the worst.

dtahl of
thus
accelerated the circulation of their blood. The first race,
the Bentinck Plate, as usual, like the opening piece on
Boxing -night, was almost totally disregarded, and was won
after a desperate finish by a head. The Derby was set for
three o'clock, there being no fewer than 30 starters, but No.
9, "poor Plaudit," was scratched at 10 23, and his place
was taken conveniently by Distin, who was the only one
not inserted in Dorling's list of probable runners. The
crowd in the saddling paddock was by no means so large
as on many previous occasions, and, as usual, all thoughts
seemed concentrated upon the great favourites. Vauban,
Uncas, and Distin were paraded with young John Day
and several other Dauebury attacker at their sides,
monopolising almost all the attention of the spectators
Hermit, who was by hitusskf, was almost entirely
disregarded, and seemed to shiver with the cold. A
few people asked "What's that ?" and when in-
formed it was Hermit contemptuously observed "Oh !"
and passed on. Though the majority of the public entirely
overlooked the Hermit, Captain Machell (Mr. Chaplin's
confederate) was quietly giving instructions to Daley, who
was "put on" by Captain Machell £QO if he wore one of
the first three, and £3,000 if he won, to which Mr. Chap-
lin added £6,000, making in the whole £9,000. In the
paddock nothing looked better than The Palmer, Vauban,
Fitz-Ivan, and Van Amburgh. The Palmer was in
superb condition. His party were wonderfully sanguine,
and such was the favour for the horse that when Wells
took off his top-coat and displayed the cherry satin he was
greeted with immense cheering, an incident quite unusual
at Epsom. Many persons were present in the enclosure
for the express purpose of inspecting the fallen Rake, but
he was not in the paddock, being saddled and mounted
near Sherwood's cottage. Marksman also was saddled
elsewhere. Thirty horses went to the poet, precisely the
same number as in Gladiateur's and Blair Athol's years,
and four more than in the past anniversary, when Lord
Lyon was;:jlstOricnk 'As..us*kkyViile"the animatirwere,

Marksman, galloped and, the bright coats of Vauban and
The Palmer eliciting general admiration, while Hermit
was almost unobserved, so totally had the public mind
become alienated from him by the recent market opera-
tions. When the lot got to the post three-quarters of an
hour elapsed before they were despatched on their event-
ful journey, but the interest attaching to the actual start
was considerably marred by the delay and the biting
wind, sleet, and snow which swept over the downs.
There were at least half a score of false starts and these
were in some degree caused by the fractiousness of
D'Estournel, who exhibited some of the wild freaks
of Tambour Major a few years ago, despite the reports of
his improved temper. In the meantime the spectators
were becoming so accustomed to the false starts that they
were scarcely prepared for the tremendous shout of
" They're off," and the familiar clanking of the starting-
bell. From the second tremendous shout which followed
it was evident that some favourite had been left at the
post, and in an instant the animal was recognised in the
now notorious D'Estournel, who reared up on his hind
legs, and the moment the flag was lowered darted off in
an entirely opposite direction, and actually attacked the
people who were on the rails next the post. The race in
its changes is fully described below. Approaching
Tattenham Corner The Rake and The Palmer looked for-
midable, but when they had made the turn they both died
away, and, being closed iu upon, their chances of success
were hopeless. From the distance only Vauban, Marks-
man, Hermit, and Vans Amnburgh appeared in the struggle,
and loud cheers were raised when Marksman was seen on
the " Thormanby" side of the course. On breasting the
hill Vauban was beaten, and Hermit won after a game and
determined race. Grimsbaw evidently acting up to the
letter of his instructions, which were not to move upon his
horse, which he rode with consummate patience and fine
judgment. Hermit, who held his place between Vauban
and Marksman, was brought out with great judgment, and
ridden throughout with wonderful patience by J. Daley.
Fordham's ill-luck in the great three-year-old races did
not desert him on the present occasion, for he only got
third ; and The Rake, whose recent accident is so well-
known, finished tenth. Julius was never formidable after
leaving the furzes. The winner had been one of the
favourites until Monday week, when he was reported to
have been tried with Mr. Chaplin's recent purchase, Rama,
and to have been not only worsted, but, like The Rake, to
have broken a blood vessel. He was then knocked out.
To-day his owner, Mr. Chaplin, accepted 1,000 to 15, and
his confederate, Captain Machell, backed him to win
£lO,OOO. Mr. Chaplin is said to have won £140,000, and
Captain Machell £63,000. Mr. Chaplin also wins the
leviathan bet of £50,000 that The Hermit would beat The
Palmer the first time the; met, and £lO,OOO that Hermit
beat Marksman. Sir Joseph Hawley hedged the Hermit
bet a few weeks ago. It is worthy of note that Custanco
resigned his claim upon Hermit to ride The Rake, whu has
turned out a great impostor. Thus ended one of the most
sensational Derbys on record. Though the majority of
the public entirely overlooked the knocked-out favourite,
Captain Machell (Mr. Chaplin's confederate) was quietly
giving instructions to Johnny Daley, who is one of the
most respectable jockeys of the day, and is well known as
Baron Rothschild's second horseman, and was put on by
Captain Machell, £3OO if he were one of the first three,
and £3,000 if he won, to which Mt. Chaplin added £5,0001
making in the whole £B,OOO.

the others, who were headed by lona and Sweet Anne,
lying close in their rear. At the distance the favourite
drew up to the leader, and, catching her at every stride,
just got up on the post, -and won a magnificent race by a
head. Her Ladyship finished an indifferent third. Sweet
Anne was fourth, and the Catherine filly next; Glendale

As usual, Mr. Manning had expedited the weighing out
of those engaged in the Derby, and in consequence their
numbers, with their respective riders, were speedily ex-
hibited on the usual notice board, and shortly Mom 28 of
the 30 competitors were seen leaving the paddock, Marks-
man and The Rake soon after meeting them, having been
saddled at•the WarroU stables. Little or no time wag last
