It is intended to hold the Ward Hunt Steeplechases on
March 23, and the Carlow Races have been fixed for the
second Tuesday and Wednesday in October. We must
say that parties are very slow about fixing their meetings,
and no doubt the usual amount of cannoning will take
place from not being early in the field.
Shrewsbury Spring Meeting.—Several races for this
meeting on the flat and over hurdles close on Feb. 11,
there being already 22 subscribers to each of the jumping

events

Durham Races (Easter Monday).—The Durham Iluni
Cup, value 50 SOTS in money, closes on Tuesday nex
(Feb. 4).
The AshgillEstate.—This estate and well-known train.

ing establishment, in the occupation of the Messrs. Os-
borne, has been purchased for .£5,000 by their brother-ia-
law, T. Obaloner, the jockey.
Retirement of the Earl of Jersey.—We have to announce

the retirement of the above young nobleman from the
Turf, and we are given to understand his entire stud of
race horses will come to the hammer in the course of the

ensuing month.

SOUTH WOLD HUNT STEEPLECHASES.—These events
are fixed for Thursday, April 9. The programme will
shortly appear, consisting of four chases for hunters, over
the Old Course, which is one of the best in England.
NEWTON SUMMER MEET[NO.—ThO following stakes
close on Tuesday next :—The Golborne Park Stakes, for
two year olds; tho Trafford Park Stakes, and the Lyme
Park Stakes.

A grand dinner, at which the lovers of horseflesh will be
enabled to partake of this new article of food, will take
place at the Langham Hotel on Feb. 6.
It is with feelings of the deepest regret we record the
death a few days ago of Mr. James [fall, a well known and
esteemed member of Tattersall's.
llowden (Yorkshire) Steeplechases will take place on
April 23d. The usual stakes will bo advertised in due

time. •
Moose and Pearl Diver were struck out of the Lincoln
Hurdle Race immediately the weights appeared.
Globule, Chesterfield, and Hornet, were struck out of
tho Birmingham Steeplechase directly the weights ap-
peared.
We regret to hear that J. Laud broke his leg while
hunting on Wednesday last.
Torquay Steeplechases will take place on April 21st
and 22d.
Mansfield Races.—The effort to establish another spring
meeting promises to be successful, Mansfield—one day
only this year—being fixed to succeed Lincoln and precede
Nottingham. A capital programme for a beginning has
been issued, the result of the joint labours of the Duke of
Newcastle and Mr. Savile, both of whom are liberal sup-
porters of the meeting. The bill of fare is of a very inte-
resting character, and there appears little doubt of the
meeting thus commenced being eventually as important as
its two midland compeers. Several of the stakes close over
night to the clerk of the course.

The Disputed Farmers' Hunt Cup at Donington.—
An objection, it will be remembered, was preferred against
Come Again, who came in first for the Farmers' Hunt Cup
at the late Donin Meeting, on the ground of being a
previous winner. INTe are now informed that the case
will be submitted to the Grand National Steeplechase
Committee at their first meeting, rumour meanwhile
indicating that none of the horses running were properly
qualified. - -

sous, with 10 sous for the second, and the Farmers' Chase
of 3 sovs each, with 30 sous added by J. Do 11. Chadwick,
Esq., close and name on Tuesday next (Feb. 4), to Mr.
John Sheldon, Bell-street, Birmingham.

nounce the death of Mr. Swindells, son., of Manchester,
