SPORTING IN TELLICENCE.

GOODWOOD RACES.
Goonwoon ST AICES.-(Further particulars. )—Confused by the
noise of a militi-ous band from Chichester, we quoted Glaucus at
6 instead of 6 to 1, and omitted_ to state that Mr. Greville declared
to win with Preserve. At the first attempt all got off except Louisa
and the Leopoldine colt, and ran the half way down the distance ;
the second start was effectual, and the lot (quite a Derby like field)
got away on pretty fair terms ; after the first 200 yards Louisa took
the lead at a steady pace, followed by Dacre, Nell Gwynne, Road-
ster, Datura, Cecilia, Revenge, and Glausus, the others lying up in
a ruck, with the exception of the Leopoldine colt, who brought up
the rear. On making the first turn Louisa resigned the lead to
Dacre, who carried on the running round the clump, the horses
keeping their positions till they commenced the descent of the hill.
Here Olympic joined the front rank, and Leopoldine crept from the
rear into the middle ; here, too, Nell Gwynne and Freedom closed
their account, nor did Roadster, Cecilia, Bentley, or Louisa, last
many, strides further. About two distances' from home Glaucus,
Preserve, and the Leopoldine colt joined Dacre, every thing else in
the race being concluded. Dacre maintained his lead to the dis-
tance, where Glaucus headed him, and about half way between this
point and the stand, Preserve, then lying third, made an effort to
get up, and this she would have done had not Dacre hung upon her,
and, for the moment. shut her out. Scott improved the advantage
afforded him by this circumstance, got a good length in advance,
and maintained it to the finish. It appeared to us that if Dacre had
run straight Preserve would have won. The third was beaten a
length from the second, and the Leopoldiuc colt about the same by
the third; three or four lengths behind were Revenge and Datura,
then Louisa, Bentley, Bubastes, Freedom, and Olympic, and lastly,
Nell Gwynne, Roadster, and Cecilio.
Amongst the company present were the Dukes of Richmond and
'Portland, the Marquis and Marchioness of Exeter, Marquis of Ta-
vistock, Count Matuszevie ; Earls Jersey, Southampton, March,

" PAUL CLIFFORD."—Mr. BulWer's most origi-
nal work is now included in " The Standard Novels and
Romances," published by Mr. Bentley, complete in one vol.,
price Gs. " The leading feature of this exceedingly clever
work is satire. The author is a perfect chameleon in taking
the colour of the objects presented to his vision. He catches
them with such a brilliancy of dye, and such a variety of shade,
that each of his aspects may be said tb approach the beauty
of the most permanent and original disposition of hues. The
work is written with an ability and an acuteness, with a rich
and copious flow of pleasant and appropriate images, that
render it greatly amusing to persons who are novel readers.
At the same time that the rapidity and vivacity of the inci-
dents keep the more didactic parts in a state of perfect flui-
dity—there is no stagnation as in Devereux,' and The
Disowned'—it is all eau-vive, a pure and perpetually flowing
spring of thought and action."—Spectator.
BOOKSELLIXG IN GERMANY.—.The general way
of carrying on the bookselling business seems to be this :
There is in Leipzic what is called the Booksellers' Exchange,
where all the booksellers of Germany, cr those connected
with Germany, meet twice a year, at Easter and Michaelmas.
The Michaelmas Fair is not, however, considered of the same
importance as that held at Easter. With al, iew to keep the
Exchange respectable, a new candidate must be ballotted for
before he is admitted as a member; but as it is, of course, the
interest of the other members that the circle of their connec-
tions should be as large as possible, there is very little fear of
a candidate being rejected, unless there is something very bad
against Isis character. A bookseller in Hamburg, we will
suppose, published a new work. Ha reserves as many copies
as he is likely to dispose of among his immediate connections
in his own neighbourhood, and forwards the rest of the im-
pression to his agent in Leipzic, with instructions how to dis-
tribute it. Every German bookseller, great and small (with
the exception of second-hand dealers, who form a distinct
branch of the trade, being dignified with.. the appellation of
antiquaries), has his agent in Leipzic. The agent who has
received new the work in question, proceeds immediately to
distribute it among other agents, 100 copies to one, 60 to
another, and 20 to a third, and so on, according to the instruc-
tions of his principal ; the copies so distributed are immedi-
ately forwarded to their dcstinaticn, so that in about two or
three weeks after the anearance of a new work, it is, by
means of this systern, scmultaneously distributed throughout
turn su
the whole of Q.'ZI-many. At the next Fair the booksellers're..
most animated part of the business done in the Exchange
of these-re-
consists in the mutual chopping and changing.
'714 copies as they have not been able to ial-tbe
in the hope of orders coming at ithitun3
hands of the agent
turned copies. What cannot be got rid of remains. the
time.
