NOTES

FROII
TRAINING DISTRICTS.,

(THIS DAY.)

NEWMARKET.

On Tuesday and Wednesday a large number of horses
were out, but, as usual, the Ca.nbridgeshiro candidates
did little or nothing on the morning of that race, or on the
day after. Those of our readers who have all along studied
our training intelligence must have noted the constant
favourable reports we have all along given of the pro-
spects of last Tuesday's clever victrix ; and in
our description of Monday's gallops at head-quarters,
we observed—" Drewett set Ostregor to take Actm
a clipping mile and a half, and the mare continues
to move so freely that there cannot be a question
about her ability to SECURE A PLACE in the last
big handicap of the legitimate campaign." She won with
all slbs. in hand, but several nags were beaten long before
the starter's flag finally dropped, Chepstow and Moldavia
being particularly fractious. The former was literally
mad, and broke his bridle in the run home. To-day the
weather was so bad that very little work was attempted,
except by those animals who have engagements for the
rest of the week, whilst several that have competed in the
early part of the meeting are fast returning home. Kla-
rinska went about three miles steadily ; and Breeze
galloped a couple quietly. Rustic and Mr. Pitt
did a mile and a half ; the former is sold
to go abroad. The Duke cf York (whose owner is
chagrined that he did not take his chance in the
Cambridgeshire) went a mile and a quarter very fast, look-
ing and going brilliantly. Bradamante, &c., the Sta r,
Paris, Affidavit, Pantaloon, Ulphus, Panacea, Knight of
St. Michael. Tomahawk, the Czar, Bodo:flout°, Thalassius,
Caustic, Landlord, Queen of the Isles, Dunsany, La Dau-
phine, Retrousse, Benvoglio, and Etoile Filante were gal-
loping from a mile to a mile and a quarter; but Anti
Macasser, Ischia, Slender, Douro, Pluto, Proserpine,
Lively, and Sealskin were doing a mile and a half.
Strathconan galloped quite two miles, but Rowly and Pep-
per's Ghost, Troublesome, Kingmaker, The Squire, Wild
Agnes, Life Guardsman, Kingsley, Miss Williams, Signet,
Kangaroo, Ostregor, Breadalbane, Olivia, and Hobo were in
nice steady work. The Peer galloped a mile and three-
quarters. The following two-year olds each had a gallop
of about a mile, and they severally go well :—Pericles,
The Flying Scud (late the Hatter), Ines, Marksman, The
Palmer, Julius, Lady Rosehill, Lochaber, Lady Lambtou,
Atalante, Problem, Janua, Python, Sister to Vedette,
Greenback, Cheltenham, Haidee, Water Cure, Leases, Sky-
lark, 0. K., My Love, The Rock, Arcade, the
Mayonaise filly, Bravura, Splitvote colt, Res in Urbe,
Vauban, Lady Hester, Rathven, Satyr, Bismarck, tho
Drake's dam colt, Freemason, Bombastes, Honesty, Cy-
clone, llighwood, Loudesborough, Little Ben, Ailesbury,
Ravioli, Cincinnati colt, Cellina, Stradbroke, Foresight:
Coldstream, Dovetail, Hippia, Opoponax, Miller's Maid,
Vendetta, Trombone, Princess Thyra, Bliukhoolio, &c.
The hermit, Dragon, Trocadero, D'Estenrnel, The lig,ke,
Priponnier were absent. Gladiateur, hOwever, was out,
and galloped a mile and a half as freely as ever. Brownie-
law and Out-and-Outer wore taking it quietly. We did
not see Chepstow, Regalia, or Caithness; and there is a
rumour here that tfiey are going back to Knight's, even if
they aro not already gone.
(Our reports from other quarters will be resumed to-mor-
row, and will more particularly allude to the horses en-
gaged at the Lincoln and Worcester meetings of the
ensuing week.)

P A SPORTING CELEB RITY.—We regret
to announce
the death of Mr. James Mason, the
celebrate(t steeplechase rider, which evant took place last
evening at his residence, Clarendon-place, St. John's-wood,
Eli
OF
after a lingering and painful illness. The deceased was
born at Stilton in the year 18t6, and when death occurred
ho was in his 50th y99.r. Mr. Mason was unequalled in
his day as a rider in steeplechases, and some of his greatest
victories were achieved with Lottery, The Nun, Vivian,
and St. Leger. He was a great favourite with the leading
men on the turf, to many of whom he had been the means
of their landing very largo sums of money. He possessed
the greatest confidence of his employers, and invariably
maintained their good opinion and respect.
SUDDEN DEATH OF A "NEWSPAPER PROPRIETOR.—
Yesterday Mr. Thomas Newbold, the proprietor of the
Derby Mercury, expired very suddenly at his residence in
that town. He was about resuming his avocation at ten
o'clock when he remarked `o his wife that he felt far from
well. Before medical aid arrived Mr. Newbold expired of
apoplexy. lie WM in the 18th year of his age.
