GOODWOOD RACES.
This morning ushers in the grand day of that great
Sussex meeting upon which foreigners look as the beau ideal
of all that is beautiful ,in racing and all that is wealthy
among the country gentlemen of England. The view from
the hill in the Duke of Richmond's park almost reconciles
them to the law of primogeniture ; such an estate, say they,
should not be subdivided. To become the winner of a
Goodwood Cup is the height of their ambition as regards
turf matters; they would rather see that glittering bauble,
on their sideboards than have their names enrolled on the
list of Derby winners. The Cup Day has a charm for the
million on every race-course in England, but that of Good-
wood is patronised, par excellence, by both English and
foreign turfites. The meeting of which we spells appears
to be annually increasing in popularity. The stand was on
Tuesday and Wednesday more full than ever, and to-day an
enormous assemblage may be expected.
A finer day's sport than that of Tuesday no sportsman
could have wished to witness. The largest field of horses
that ever met on British turf went to the T.Y.C. post for
the Stewards' Cup, and the whole 45 left it at the word of
command within a few feet of each other. The fortunate
winner won the stake by a head only ; and two other fine
races finished with equally doe() encounters. No great in-
sight into the future career of young horses was afforded by
the two -yr-old races, for those which ran were thought but
little of. The lion of the day was the Wizard, whose sudden
return to favour for the Cup made everybody anxious to
see him. It was believed that Thunderbolt would meet
him in the 300 Sovs. Sweepstakes; but his falling lame in
the Stewards' Cup prevented the staying powers of those
two speedy horses being tested. The first day closed with
some betting on the Goodwood Stakes for the morrow at
half-past five o'clock.
Yesterday showed an increased attendance, and a card
containing ten races gave prospect of a good day's sport. In
the third race of the day three heads only separated the
first four horses.' The Goodwood Stakes delightectevery-
body—the pace was severe throughoutygel the two favou.-
iiteS came in by tneuaslves, thefleld so widely
that seven of the 11 runners did not reach the winning-
chair before they pulled up. The gentlemen connected with
the Woodyates stable, where Elcho is trained, win upwards
of £25,000. The race for the Findon Stakes was very in-
teresting; Wingrave and Alvediston, on even terms with
each other, met in a field of 15, and left off in the second
and third places, separated by a head only. The winner,
Caterer, is a blood-like colt, but did not rise into very high
favour for the Derby on account of his victory. Between
the races some betting on future events took place, and the
Wizard and Thormanby were in increased demand for the
Cup, Optimist and Mon Etoile receding 'a point. As on
Tuesday, much time was lost, and the day's running was
not concluded until nearly two hours after the appointed
time. The field for the Cup will probably consist of Thor-
manby, the Wizard, Parmesan, Starke, Optimist, Doefoot,
Mon Etoile, and Royallieu or Pretendant.

Sweet Hawthorn made play, followed by the Conspiracy
filly and Adrasta in the order we have given them to the
turn into the straight, where the favourite was passed by
Lord Glasgow's filly, who went on in front to the distance,
where she was beaten, leaving Sweet Hawthorn with a slight
lead, waited upon by Adrasta to the stand ; the latter then
went up and won at last very cleverly by two lengths ; a bad
third.

Ace of Clubs jumped away with the running, waited
upon by Lorelei, the favourite, and Gorse, to within a few
strides of the distance, when he was disposed of and the
lead taken up by Lorelei, who went on in front to half way
in the rails, where he was headed by Bertha, who came on
and won easily by two lengths, Ace of Clubs finishing a
bad third; Gorse, who appeared to run exceedingly raw,
was last throughout.

to 1 each agst Roesia and Vinegar Hill.
Upwards of 20 minutes were consumed before the flag was
lowered to an indifferent start, Vinegar Hill beir g left at
the post. Shortly after starting Furious, in company with
Wombat, Diadem, Shingle, Roesia, made the running at a
strong pace, the others, with the exception of Vinegar Hill,
lying close up. In this order they ran to the brow of the
hill, when the leading horses were joined by the favourite,
who, halfway down, ran through his horses and on crossing
the new ground was seen at Wombat's quarters, with
Shingle and Furious in close attendance; Vinegar Hill,
who had improved his rearward position, going on next.
Halfway in the distance Furious was beaten, and Lord
Portsmouth's colt took his place, but on the latter attempt-
ing to go up Shingle hung upon him and shut him out. A
good race home from the stand enclosure ensued between
the four placed, which ended in favour of Winton by a head,
a short head separating the second and third, and a like
distance the third and fourth ; Miss Emma finished a good
fifth, Roesia sixth, Furious seventh, the others were pulled
up, Nerio being the absolute last.

Betting-7 to 4 agst Starke, 3to 1 agst Elcho, 7to 1 each
agst Schism and Canary, 9 to 1 agst Balham, and 20 to 1
agst The Brownie.
After one slight failure, the horses left the post in close
order. Umpire immediately rushed to the front, in com-
pany with Schism, the pair evidently engaged to serve their
stable companions with a pace ; Elcho going on third, Starke
fourth, Jingling Johnny fifth, and Surprise sixth; the
Brownie, Lupus, Balham, Shipwreck, and Canary follow-
ing in the order we have given them. No material alteration
occurred in this order of running until they rounded the
turn out of the straight, when Umpire somewhat increased
his lead, followed by Schism, the favourite, and Elcho, with
the others in close attendance, with the exception of Bal-
ham, who was some considerable distance in their rear. On
making the far side turn Elcho went up to Starke's quar-
ter, and ran so for some distance up the hill, when the pair
were passed by Jingling Johnny, who went on in pursuit
of Umpire ; Schism at the same time dropped away beaten,
and Starke and Elcho took her place, closely followed by
Balham and Canary, nothing else having a chance. In this
way they proceeded to the turn for home, where Jingling
Johnny went up to Umpire, and in a few strides obtained
a clear lead, Starke going en third, Elcho fourth, Balham
fifth, and Canary next, but shortly after Umpire hung out
signals of defeat, which Starke immediately answered by
joining the leader; Johnny Daley at the same time brought
up Elcho, the three running together into the bottom,
where the favourite got his head in front, and at the dis-
tance Jingling Johnny was beaten, leaving the issue with
the two. Starke, apparently full of running, came on in
front to the entrance of the enclosure, where he was headed
by Elcho, who won with great ease by half a length. Bal-
ham, who passed Jingling Johnny within a few strides of
home, finished a wretched third, Jingling Johnny was
fourth, placed by the judge. Schism, Shipwreck, Canary,
and Surprise were the next lot, but neither of them passed
the post, The Brownie being the last of all.

The moment the flag was lowered the Intimidation col
went to the front, and made running at a great pace, fol
lowed by Conqueror, Anthem, and Lisbon to the straight,
where Vinegar Hill and Starlight approached the leading
horses, but were unable to reach Lord Ailesbury's colt.
Starlight and Anthem gave way at the distance, and the
favourite, continuing his lead, won iu a canter by four

off the post.

DOCKYARD DISCLOSURES.

Oa Monday Samuel Oldfield, foreman of works ;
Samuel Lumb, mason ; George Merwood, Peter
Knight, and Bartholomew Maloney, labourers, all
in the employ of Mr. George Smith, contractor of
public works in Portsmouth dockyard, were
brought up before the magistrates at Portsmouth
on a charge of stealing 2 cwt. of Government lead.
Mr. Swainson, the Anmiralty solicitor at Ports-
mouth, conducted the prosecution; Mr. Field, soli-
citor, appeared for the prisoner Oldfield ; Mr.
Cousens, solicitor, appearing for the remainder of
the prisoners.
A quantity of lead has been issued from the Go-
vernment stores in the yard to the contractor, when
needed, for filling up any interstices in the stone-
work in building the docks, and for the purpose of
filling up such interstices in the caisson grove of
the new No. 11 dock a large quantity of lead has
been issued in the usual manner, the surplus of
which should have been returned to store. This
lead the prisoners were charged with stealing.
James Westbrook, sergeant of the metropolitan
police, doing duty in the dockyard at Portsmouth,
deposed that in consequence of information received
relative to the loss of lead in the dockyard, he placed
himself in a position close to the entrance to No. 11
dock on the 23d inst., where he would be unob-
served, and see all that took place where the men
were at work, they being at dinner at that time.
When they returned from dinner, a fire was lit
under the melting-pot, and a quantity of the
lead placed in it, Melted, and formed into a
rough block with the aid of some bricks.
Maloney and Lumb were the two men engaged.
The prisoner Maloney took the piece of lead pro-
duced, which has not been melted, to a heap of dirt
about two or three yards from the melting pot, and
buried it beneath the earth. Maloney shortly af-
terwards returned with another barrowful of lead,
which he and Lumb put into the melting pot. The
lead was all melted by 6 p.m., when I left and
communicated with my superior officer. The pri-
soners left their work at about 8 p.m., and after
they had left witness, his sergeant, and the super-
ilnttwenedigenhs
afterwards super-
intendent, Mr. Mott, went to the place where the
lead had been buried, and found it there. (Lead

cart with same material for the works, which was
unloading from the cart. The prisoners Oldfield
and Floyd then came up talking and looking about
the works and at the horse and cart, which was

the direction of the new foundry, and of Mr.
Smith's (the contractors) private
store. Stayed on
the watch until 8 o'clock that night. On Thursday,
the following day, relieved Sergeant Taylor, and
remained on watch again until 8 o'clock at night.
No melting took place during that time. On the
following day witness, accompanied by Superin-
tendent Mott, went to Mr. Smith's store. Witness
entered the store first, and saw the storeman, the
prisoner Merwood, 'who, by direction of witness,
called the prisoner Floyd, who, in answer to
questions put by witness, said that all the pro-
in the store way the property of Mr.
Smith, the contractor. In answer to ti question
put by the Superintendent, Floyd said they had no
lead in the store, nor bad they any Government
lead. Floyd afterwards pointed to some rolls of
new lead which he said belonged to Mr. Smith.
Witness said to Floyd in reply,
I want those two
pieces of lead you ordered to be put into, or saw
put into, the cart yesterday." Floyd replied, " I
saw no lead." Witness then turned round and
under some barrels and other things saw a quantity
of lead. It was afterwards weighed and found to
weigh 1 ton 7 cwt. This was exclusive of the pieces
which witness had seen removed from the dock.
Prisoner Floyd said the larger quantity of lead had
been returned from their dredgers, and afterwards
melted down. Floyd was taken into custody.
Witness then went to the dock and called Lumb
up, and asked him if he put any lead in a cart the
day but one before, when Lumb replied that he had.
Witness then asked him if he had any more lead
there, to which he replied that he had, and
was walking towards a spot where witness knew
a piece was buried. Witness then took him
into custody. The prisoner Lumb said to wit-
ness that he had orders from Mr. Tyrrell, the
foreman of the store whence the lead was issued,
to run the lead down every
night, and had done so
for 17 years. Witness told him (Lumb) that he
saw him bury some lead, to which he made no re-
ply. The witness was subjected to a long cross-
examination by Mr. Field and Mr. Cousens for the
prisoners, but his examination in chief was not
affected.
Sergeant John Taylor, of the metropolitan police,
employed in Portsmouth dockyard, deposed that he
relieved the last witness from his watch on the
evening of the 26th. Lead was being melted for
the work in the dockyard. The prisoner Maloney
and a man named Stott baled out some lead, about
