The following also ran :—Overton, Gibraltar, Cantina,
Strike, and Queen of the Vale.

Betting-6 to 4 agst Buccaneer, 2to 1 agst Satellite, and
6to 1 agat Cantine. No other backed.

Strike and Buccaneer jumped off in front, where the for-
mer remained for 300 yards, when Buccaneer took up the
running. As they entered the straight, Satellite on the off
side, and Mdlle. de Chantilly next the stand, lay at Bucc,%-
neer's haunches, with Cantine and Gibraltar next ; Queen
of the Yale, who was the last to leave the post, they ad-
vanced towards them, but was unable to reach the leading
horses. Buccaneer remained in front to the end, and won
easily by a length, Mdlle. de Chantilly finishing a bad third,
Queen of the Vale fourth, Cantine fifth, and Overton sixth,
the others beaten off some distance, the last two were Gib-
raltar and Strike.

The Gratwicke Stakes of 100 sovs each, h ft ; for colts Bst

Betting-7 to 4 agst East Stanley, 3to 1 agst Starlight,
4 to 1 agst Knight of St. Patrick; and 5 to 1 agst Lady
Blanche.

Lady Blanche made the running at a good pace, followed
by the favourite and Jingling Johnny. In ascending the
hill Jingling Johnny passed the other two, and took a clear
lead, Lady Blanche going on second, with Starlight, East
Stanley, and Knight of St. Patrick lying close up. On
reaching the distance Lady Blanche was disposed of, and
dropped into the rear. East Stanley at the same time
joined Jingling Johnny, the pair running abreast to the
lawn enclosure, where they were passed by Starlight and
Knight of St. Patrick, the former winning in a canter by
three lengths, a like distance separating the second and
third ; Jingling Johnny fourth. Lady Blanche did not
pass the post.

Mr. Fleming's Coulon, Bst 71b
Lord Uxbridge's Keane, Bst 71b (Charlton) 5
Lord Stamford's Xurullo, Bst ilb (Edwards) 6
Betting—Even on Express, 4 to 1 each agst Coulon and
Tarragona.

After one false start, occasioned by the restiveness of Ex-
press and Xurullo, Peignoir broke away and ran to the
distance, the lot left the post in close order, Peignoir having
a slight lead, waited upon Express and Tarragona, Xurullo
and Coulon lying close up on the lower side. In this way
they ran to the centre of the stand, where Custance got
upon better terms with the leader, and caught him in the
last stride, and won a fine race by a short head, two lengths
separating the second and third, and a head the third and
fourth. Keane was fifth and Xurullo last, beaten off a
long way.

Fifty Pounds, added to a Sweepstakes of 5 soya each; 3-

yr-olds and u; ,wards, weights for age. The winner to

Capt. Christie's Diadem, 4 yrs, Bst 91b .. (G. Fordham) 3

Betting-5 to 4on Shingle, 7to 4 agst Sir Philip.
Sir Philip cut out the work at the best pace to the dis-
tance, when the favourite got to his girths, and ran in com-
pany for a few strides, then left him, and won in a canter
by three lengths. A bad third.

The Stewards' Cup, value 300 sovs (handicap,) of 10 sovs
each, with 100 added. The surplus to be paid to the win-

Man-at-Arms; 33 to 1 each agst Chriemhilde, Sherborne,
and Sir William ; 40 to 1 apt Billy Dwindles ; and 50 to 1
each agst Rockley, Horace, and Cosmopolite.
The appearance of the 45 fine competitors as they were
seen on the brow of the hill, with the sun shining on their
variegated colours, was most imposing. With little or no
loss of time, considering the difficulty of getting so large a
field of horses together, Mr. M'George despatched them
from the post, and when they had got fairly into their places
rising the hill the line extended entirely across the course.
Billy Dwindles, having a slight lead, made the running,
with Croagh Patrick, La Vapour, Man-at-Arms, Umpire,
Nativity, Vergiss-moin-nicht, Restes, and Waterwitch
forming the front division, the others being headed by Ris-
ing Sun, Lava, Sherborno, Knight of St. Patrick, and
Crater. In this way they ran, as nearly as we could make
out, to the distance, where Billy Dwindles was beaten, and
gave way to Croagh Patrick, who, with Man-at-Arms, La
Vapeur, Sir William, and Cosmopolite closely laid up, car-
ried on the running to the entrance of the lawn enclosure,
where the leading horses were joined by the Knight of St.
Patrick and Rising Sun. On reaching the stand Croagh
Patrick, Man-at-Arms, and Lord Exeter's colt singled them-
selves out and run a close and exciting race home, the for-
mer winning cleverly by a neck, Alan-at-Arms securing the
second honours by half a length from Knight of St. Patrick.
Rising Sun was fourth, Cosmopolite and Sir William fifth
and sixth, side by side, Lava, and La Vapeur finishing the
next two. The remainder were pulling up as they passed the
post, the last of whom was Thunderbolt, Waterwitch, Ver-
giss-mein-nicht, General Hesse, and Sporting Life, the for-
mer of whom pulled up lame, and the latter did not pass the
post.

third.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER.-MESDAY.

There was very little doing on either the Goodwood Stakes
or Cup. For the Stakes, for a long time, sto 2 was the
current offer against Elcho, and 7 to 2 against Starke ; but
towards the close 7 to 1 was taken about Schism, 3 to 1 was
offered against Elcho, and 4to 1 against Starke. For the
Goodwood Cup, although 6 to 1 each was taken against
Thormanby and Mon Etoile, the only animal in force was
The Wizard, about whom 5 to 2 was taken rather freely.

Montagu House, in Whitehall, that, from peculiar circum-
stances in connection with the building trade in London,
it will have been built to a large extent by Scotch masons,
Many of the London men, tired of the unhealthy condition,
of their craft, owing to the undue control exercised by the
paid leaders of the strike, have left the metropolis, and thni
afforded opportunities for new hands to obtain employment:
Scotland, where building in stone is more common than in
England, has sent up a great number of masons, and,
where first-rate workmen have applied, their expenses to
London have been paid by the duke's contractors, Messrs.
Hollands and Hannon, of Bloomsbury,--Edinburgh
