WARWICK.

The usual hunt meeting commenced yesterday, and, if
Jack Frost does not put his veto upon its continuance on
the days originally fixed the gathering will be a most
successful one, indeed, as we have about a Hundred and
fifty horses here to fulfil their engagements. The weather,
however, is very severe ; and it was freezing hard all last
night. So it really was during the time the sport's were
on yesterday afternoon, despite the sun str.'ning now and
again, but there was more than an average .attendance of
visitors. Eight races were decided, and drew fifty-
seven, competitors to the post, Captain Machell,
and Messrs. A. Heathcote, G. Angell, J. Tharme,
Porter, John Nightingall, Thomas Golby, and Wadlow,
each winning a prize, and the successful jockeys being
Mr. Milward, Kenyon, Hibbard (twice); Butler, Custanee,
Sadler, and Heartfield. The ground was so hard this
morning that the several trainers were frightened to gallop
their horses much, therefore moderate exercise only was
the order ; in fact, only just sufficient amount of work to
keep the nags healthy and warm. Wadlow was out v ith
Moulsey, Sandal, Dean Swift, old Queen of Trumps, Sal-
Het, Miss Alice, and Jeannie Deans, and they were trotting
and cantering some time. Amongst the Duke of Hamilton's
string working were Cortolvin, Sultan, the Beadle, Wild
Agnes, The Nailor, Greenback, and Residuary Legatee.
Alec Taylor was exercising Pintail as freely as he could, and
the mare appears to be very fit. We understand, though,
that Dulcimer is coming. Mr. Hodgman's team was early
on the Lammab Lands, and Valiant was particularly fresh.
Pearl Diver headed Teddy Brayley's lot, and was never
better. Dr. Syntax, Belmont, Shakespeare, Dick Turpin,
Brimstone, Cedric, Vigorous, Monitress, Marco Spada,
Forester, and Douro, were the other Great Midland Coun-
ties' Handicap horses we saw at work. The steeplechasers
included Columbia, Comberton, Philosopher, Meanwood,
The Plover, Gulnara, Bridesmaid, Diomed, Grace Darling,
King of Hearts, Greenland, and Bourton. The latter is an
immense horse, standing all 17 hands high. Icicle, Hunts-
man, Miss Frances, Prodigal, Lady Pam, Venom, Purchase
Grafton, Miller's Maid, Hatty, Python, Columbine, Killa-'
loe, Gentle Gale, Lady Clinton, Prima Donna, King of the
Fairies, Vice'Versa, Miss Alice, King's Cross, Soiled Dove,
Mouchoir, And •Angelica were doing the most of ttie two
year olds. Under the hedges the steeplechase coursa is
iron-bound, gad ice lies an inch thick on the waters. We
want a very powerful sun to "correct" thes3 drawbacks.

The following appeared in our Third Edition of' yester-
day evening :

WARWICK.

Naturally enough, after the late severe rains, our race-
course is somewhat heavy, particularly that portion which
lies contiguous to the brook, at the commencement of the
T.Y.O. course. About 130 horses have already arrived to
fulfil their engagements here for the hunt week, and nearly
the whole of these were at exercise early this morning:
The several two-yr-olds were looking uncommonly well,
and amongst them wero Prodigal, Residuary Legatee,
Plantago, Columbine, Purchase, Miss Alice, Gentian, Busy
Body, Gentle Gale, Leases, Stokeley, Python, Lady Pam,
Killaloe, My Love, Vice Versa, Venom, Brown Tommy,
Hatty, Icicle, Huntsman, Miller's Maid, Canard, Lady.
Clinton, Prima Donna, King of the Fairies, King's-cross,
Soiled Dove, Mouchoir, Lady Clinton, and Angelica.
Considering the number of prizes, and good ones too,
offered for competition by 2-yr-olds, this number of
juveniles must fall short of general expectation. Canard
galloped nearly a mile and a half, and so did Mouchoir;
but Hatty, Icicle, Prodigal, Greenback, Residuary Legatee,
Venom, and Brown Tommy were restricted to a mile
gallop each. The rest of the youngsters did little more
than trot and canter about. We only saw nine or ten of
the jumpers at work, viz., Philosopher, Meanwood,
Cortolvin, The Plover, Gulnara, Bridesmaid, Diomed,
Shakspere, Fortunatus, and Chimney. Sweep. Philo-
sopher , looks very fit, and galloped about three .
Miles at a fair pace. Cortolvin, on the coqtntry, is very
big„ and he.''* blowed" much upon being pulled up at the
end of his two and a half-mile gallop. We understand
that he has been used as a back of late. Meanwood wants
a little more time, but The Plover, Shakespeare, and For-
tunatus are quite ripe. Chimney Sweep showed a deal of
temper. Pearl Diver had a beautiful two mile gallop this
led Mr. Brayley's two-yr-olds, and
morning, after having
he never went better. Dr. Syntax and The Lizard gal-
loped about a mile and three-quarters, going well. Pin-
tail did over a couple of miles: Beeswing, Vigorous, and
Valiant had a splendid gallop of two miles, Venom and
others following a part of the way. Monitross moved in
ker. old form, and Brimstone was very free in his action.
Claxton and Custard Castle worked well together, and
poor Brick went exceedingly well despite his infirmities.
Belmont was a bit stiff. Marco Spada galloped, two miles
and a quarter, and Forester nearly as far. The Beadle
and Nailor were led a mile and a quarter fast by Sultan.
Paris did a very smart mile gallop by himself, as did
Indian Star. Saccharometer galloped three-quarters of a
mile rattling. Wild Agnes compassed a mile and a quarter
at her best pace, cleverly.
