TILE RUNNING.

11 little or no loss of time the toilets of the eighteen
competitors assembled in the paddock Were completed,
Lady Elizabeth baying gone through that performance at
Mr. Sherward's, " The Warren." They then paraded
past the Stand, and having reached the distance they
wheeled round and commenced their preliminary canter,
led by Paul Jones, Rosicrucian, Green Sleeve, and Blue
Gown, several lengths in advance of Lord Glasgow's colt,
Orion, Forest King, and the Baron's pair, a long way in
whose rear came Franchise, the Duke of Newcastle's two,
and Samson, each eliciting special remarks as they swept by.
Pace, on nearing the enclosure, faltered in his stride, and
immediately after Aldcroft was seen endeavouring to stop
him,when it became apparent that hchadbroken down, and
upon his dismounting and returning to the enclosure it
was found that the back tendons of his off fore-leg had
given way. This sensation, however, soon gave way to
the more important business on hand, the progress of the
others to the starting post, which having been reached,
Mr. M`George speedily got them in order, and, with
the exception of three or four failures occasioned by
Lady Elizabeth refusing to join her horses, he dispatched
them in excellent time and close company. When
fairly in their places the running was taken up by
Cap-h.-Pie, having Orion on his left, the pair being fol-
lowed by Speculum, See-Saw, Blue Gown, Paul Jones,
Franchise, King Alfred, and Green Sleeve in a body, the
latter lying on the inside, pulling double. To these suc-
ceeded Suffolk, Rosicrucian, Forest King, and Cock of
the Walk, heading the next division, in the rear of whom
were seen the colours of Sampson, Viscount, St. Ronan,
and Lady Elizabeth. In these positions they ran a
quarter of a mile, when Orion beaded Colonel Pearson's
colt and assumed the command. Speculum, Blue Gown,
Ind his stable companion, Green Sleeve, at the same time
were seen gradually nearing the front, followed by Paul
Jones and St. Ronan, the latter having quitted his rearward
position, which was still occupied by Viscount, Samson, and
Lady Elizabeth ; the favourite at this early period of the
race appearing unable to act, and as they came through
the " bushes," Fordham, to the alarm of her backers, was
seen " hard upon her," but without mending her position,
and as they reached the mile-post she was hopelessly out
of the race, so far as any chance she now possessed. Orion
still held his prominent position in the van as they descended
the hill, Cap-It-Pie lying second, Blue Gown third, King
Alfred fourth, with Speculum, Franchise, Paul Jones,
Green Sleeve, and St. Ronan close in their track ; then
followed Rosicrucian, Suffolk, and See-Saw ; but
on rounding 'Tottenham Corner the lot closed up,
and ran in company into the straight, where
the two leaders were beaten and suddenly disappeared
from the van, the colours of Green Sleeve and Rosicrucian
at the same time fading away. The running, through
these withdrawals, was left with King Alfred on the
lower ground, having Blue Gown in the centre, on the
right of whom came Speculum, Paul Jones, See-Saw, St.
Ronan, and Suffolk. Franchise, who up to this point had
been running in a forward position, suddenly collapsed on
crossing the road, and immediately after Challoner was seen
to dismount, he having ascertained that she had broken her
leg badly. At the distance Paul Jones and See-Saw were
added to the beaten division, and the issue was now left with
the Baron's outsider, King Alfred, and Blue Gown, the
contest being watched with the most feverish excitement
by the thousands committed to the judge's fiat. Half-way
up the former appeared to have the best of it, when loud
shouts from the ring arose of " The Baron wins,"w
