71.1tALVING REPORTS.

NEWNLIIIKET.-Our ground is still very hard, and but
few horses are in regular work. At Alexandra Park we
have, in the Two Year Old Stakes, De Vere, Martyr, Run-
away, and filly out of Orkousta, but I cannot say any-
thiim of this Jot. Palace Stakes.—Goodwood has done
well lately, and Gomera you have seen out. Alexandra
Plate.—Sir Oliver, False Alarm, Moutbar, Sphynx, and
Benefactress have all done sufficient work. Welter Cup.
—Pirate Chief, Musician, Usurper, and Distaff are all
well. Grand Prize.—Laneret, St. Ronan, Nelusko,
Speculum, Goodwood, l'riponnier, Vale Royal, and Beauty
are our lot. These, 1 think I may safely say, could
not be more fit to run. Chelmsford.—Great Bad-
dew Two Year Old Stakes. Belle of Warwick,
Capucine filly, Biche au Buis, Dr Do Jongh, Cyclamen,
Troy, and Nutgirl are our lot, and all going o a right.
Chelmsford llandi,:ap —Pirate Chief, Distaff, Artesian,
Midwife, Novice, Usurper, Court Card, Furious, and D:.
Gray are all right. Angus is away, and La Belle Jeanne is
hardly fit. I think the best of Joseph Dawson's will will
this handicap. Worcester meeting— In the Worcestershire
Stakes. Vespasian is very well iadeel, and will about win.
Flying Stakes—Sir Oliver and Problem are both well.
Worcester Cup—We have only"L eases engage 1, and he
goes short, ant I should think will not run. I have
noticed during the week the following doing some good
gallops on the tan :—Cant3mpt, Casse fete, Miss Have-
lozk, Leonie, Grimston, Knight Erray., Qui Vive, Riga,
Belpliegor, Harebell, Teddiugton horse (5 yrs), i‘Lss
Sarah colt (4 yrs), Maid of Masham filly Makeshift colt
(3 yrs), Bird-on-the-Wing colt (3 yrs), slily by Knowsley
(3 yrs), Lady Roseberry, Alacduff, Porter's Knot, Perfume,
Snowdrop, Purveyor mare, Cavalier, Little Resa, Bene-
factress, Lady Stanley, Ishmael, Qu on of Darkness, Can-
non Ball, Lucifer, King Victor, 2.lpenstock, Marmite,
Glarnis, Chippenham, Ilippia, Jasper, Director, Ilormione
colt, Nya za, Nine Elms, Gloire do Dijon, Nelly Rose,
Morning Star, Typhon, and Thor. King Charming, being
amiss, has done nothing the last few days. Van Amburgh
has art ived at Godding's to be trained.
KINGSCLERE.—I have not seen Resicrucian out, and I
must advise your subscribers not to back him at present
for the St. Leger. I have grave doubts respecting him.
His long absence from work makes me think there must
bo something wrong, which I am at present unable to
fathom. We shall, I believe, have no horses run next
week. All our horses, with the exception of Rosi, are in
fair work.

LAMBOVRNE.—I see that Alexandra Park, Chelmsford,
and 'Worcester Meetings take place next week, but I have
not seen the programme of Alexandra Park, so I can't say
much about it. I see we have Mexico engaged in the
Palace Handicap. He is well, and if be should run will
take his own part in the race. Wo have Vortigern in the
Goodwood Stakes, and he is doing well, but I should
think that ho will not do, for he has got quite enough on
him. Mayflower is engaged in the Worcester Handicap,
and ehe is going on as well as she can do.

RICHMOND.—There has been very littlo of importance
doing by our horses the last thre3 days, as we have thirty
at Newcastle, as well as all our trainers, therefore those
left at home aro restricted to their ordinary work. I see
they were very successful on the opening day, but out of
it the next, as 1 expected. At the Alexandra Park Meet-
ing I notice Bel Tub in the Palace Handicap, but ho is a
moderate horse, though he has done plenty of work of
late. In the Cumberland Plate we have nine horses in
good work, all doing well, and one or two I shall keep a
special eye on for that event.

ILsLEit.—At the Alexandra Park Meeting, Dalby, Viri-
dis, Achievement, Milton, and Orion are engaged in the
Grand Prize. Dalby is only taking half-mile canters.
Viridis is doing steady mile work, looking and going well.
Achievement showed her form at Stockbridge. Milton is fit
and well, but not class enough for this event. Orion will
therefore be our best. He is daily doing good work. After
two canters he has a nice gallop of about one mile and a
half, going in rare form, and over this distance it will take
a really good horse to beat him, iu my opinion. I think
he wilt about win. Feodor is doing good work for the
Palace Handicap, and will take his own part. King of the
Rovers, First Emperor, Black Jimmy, Arlington, Alabama,
and Miss Nellie are in the Two Year Old Stakes, and I
have the most fancy for whichever runs of the King of the
Rovers or First Emperor. Our horses engaged in the
Alexandra Plate, Muswell Hill Stakes, and the Nursery
Plate are well.

MALTON.—Owing to Newcastle races not being over,
all our trainers aro there, which causes but little to be
doing here. The horses at hone doing good work are
Emma, Lapidist's dam filly, George Osbaldeston, colt by
King Osradoc, Di Spanker, colt by Oramond, Amend-
ment, Dutch Admiral, Skylark, The Spy, Merry and
Wise, Fecialis, Booty, Thunder, Kentish Fire, Toison
d'Or, Barna Bimbo, and Zapolya. Westwick, War, and
Royal Oak are taking things easy at present.

TyrlßLEp.—All our horses engaged at Worcester have
been away from home, so I can say vary little concerning
them. Worcester.—ln the Crown() Handicap, Tremble is
engaged, but he is away at Stockbridge, where his form
will be your re.tder's best Guide. Grand Stand Plato.—
Citron is also away, and the same remark will apply to
him. Flying Stakes. —Marshal Ney is from home. Alex-
andra Park.—ln the Two Year Old Stakes wo have Rid
Ribbon and Sagax. The latter will be the best, and I think
will run well ; that is all I can say of him at present.
Grand Prize.—Moslem is doing sJrne good work daily; I
think a mile will suit him very nicely, and ho will ha very
bad to beat.

WORCESTER SUNNIER MEETING.—AdViCCS from the old
city state that the hay is now cleared off the Ham, and
that the ground will nut b 3 opened till the races, which
take place on Thursday and Friday next, the rain of Sun
dAy and Monday last having considerably benefited the
going.

Mr. Stephenson's two year old colt by Novillo out of
Madame Staveley changed hands no fewer than four times
after the Selling Sweepstakes at Stockbridge on Thursday
and finally became the property of Mr. Brayley, who ap-
propriately named him Turn Over.

Mr. Drewitt's five year old brown colt Gladiator, by
Stockwell out of Rouble's dam, was sold after his race at
Stockbridge to Mr. Cavaliero for 500 sovereigns. This
strong valuable horse was purchased for stud purposes
for Hungary.

The filly by Folkestone out of Child of the Mist was
purchased by Mr. Oliver on Thursday at Newcastle, and
goes into George Davison's stable at liambleton. She has
since been named Maggie Moor.
Mmtux MosAncn.—This horse, the property of Mr Mac-
kenzie, has lately been suffering severely from influenza,
and in consequence of his weak state was destroyed on
Saturday last at Ilsley.
VAM AMBURGII.— On Saturday last Mr. Fleming's horses
were sold at Albert Gate by Messrs. Tattersall, and amongst
the lot was this well-known horse, who was sold to Mr.
G. Angell for 1,000 guineas.

HusomtronD RACES.—The Ladies' Plate closed with 17
entries, the John o'Gaunt Handicap with '2O, and the Nur-
sery Plate with 21.

ODIIIAM RACES.-The Greywell Hill Plate closed with
18 entries, the Manor Plate with 21, the Odiham Handicap
with 23, and the Dogmersfield Park Handicap with 26

entries.

Mr. Stephenson claimed Mystery, 2 yrs, for Mr. Hoene
at Stockbridge on Thursday, and she goes into Forester's
stable at Ilsloy.

LECTURER.-This horse has left John Day's stables and
gone to Captain Barlow's stud farm at Haskern, noar
Woodbridge.
BIBURY CLUB, 1869.—His Grace tho Duke of Newcastle
is the steward elect for this meeting.

Painshill and Collett Monte have been added to the list
of geldings.
The report that Lord Stamford intended to immedi-
ately remove his horse in training to Danebury is in-
correct.

Mr John Darrell has namod his bay colt by King Cara-
doc out of Jeanie Deans Mackney.

Maraschino was struck out of the Nursery, at Alexandra
Park, when the weights appeared.

TIPPOO Sale ON TIIE WA.B. PATH AGAlN.—There
are but few persons in the Uni'ud States but that have
either soon or hoard of this celebrated elephant. His many
exploits and capricious antics hays been more than once
chronicled by the press throughout the length and breadth
of the land. It will be remembered that Tippoo got on the
rampage while at his winter quarter at Connersville, In-
diana, last Decemb3r, and made things quite lively in that
usually quiet little village for a few hours. His old keeper,
Mr. Frank Nash, who had had the care of him for eleven
years, relinquished his charge for another field of labour,
and Colonel G.,„W. Johnson, an old African traveller, as-
Burned his management. Tippoo was apparently very
much opposed to the change, and when Colonel John-
son approached him, a mischievous twinkle of his eye
evinced pretty plainly that he meant mischief. His
now keeper gave him a sharp word of command, and re-
ceived in response a blow from the elephant's trunk,
which had it struck him fairly would have sent him into
the other world without the benefit of clergy. Colonel
Johnson was on the alert, however, and avoided the mis-
chief. And then the contest for the mastery commenced.
Tippoo became perfectly frantic, and snapped the stout
chains that bound him like whipcords. After much stra-
tagem, his legs were finally lassoed with heavy ropes,
and, after a five hours' contest, he at length yielded to his
superior. Tippoo has boon on his good behaviour over
since, and is now as mild-mannered an elephant as ever
carried a trunk.—Wilkcs's Spirit of the Times.
BRITISH CHESS ASSOCIATION.—At the annual
meeting of this association, which v. as held at the St.
George's Chess Club on Wednesday evening, Lord Lyt-
telton, the president, in the chair, it was resolved that
there should be a grand gathering of chess players in
London, to commune° on the 23d November next, when
the 50 guinea challenge cup of the association (now hold
by Mr. Do Vero) and various other prizes will be com-
peted for. It is anticipated that the C ingress will be ou
a very extensive scale, the cordial support of many emi-
nent players having been promised, and an additional
honorary secretary, F. H. Deacon, Esq., has been ap-
pointed. The veteran player Herr Lowenthal, having
retired from the manage:neat, his duties will henceforth
bo fulligrkpi t 9pnerary ocretatio.
