SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

BRIGHTON RACE MEETING—WEDNESDAY.
The prestige attaching to the Brighton Oup attracted a
much larger attendance to-day, a considerable augmenta-
tion being observed in every department, but especially in
the ling and Stand, which were extensively patronised.
The weather was again delightfully fine, the sun's rays

being tempered by a breeze which swept up from the
sea. The fields were but of limited dimensions, and as

regards quality the sport exhibited but very little im-
provement upon that of yesterday. President Lincoln at
length did Mr. Payne a turn, opening the proceedings
with a maiden victory in the Pavilion Plate, for which
he started favourite. The Rous Stakes was rather a sus-

picious affair, as high odds were laid on Nor-
thern Star, and almost any price obtainable against

his two opponents, King Richard and Boquetiere.
The betting was so shifty with respect to the
two latter, that in some parts of the ring five, and

even eight points more could be had than in others, and
Mr Peircey laid Mr Steel an even £lOO that King Richard
did not finish within ten lengths of the winner. Admiral
Rous was asked to decide the bet, and after the race, in
reply to the bookmakers, ho stated that not only was King
Richard not beaten more than two lengths, but it was his
opinion that he could have won. The affair created a
considerable amount of sensation at the time, and many
who witnessed the race fully endorsed the outspoken
opinion of the gallant lawgiver. The Brighton Nursery,
which brought out ten runners, fell to Storm King, who
upset a warm favourite in the Becky Sharp filly ; and al-
though the same stable (J. Dawson's) started the Impera-
trice colt, Storm King; who is a very blood-like ani-
mal, left off an equal favourite with the latter, al-
though perhaps not backed for as much money. The
result was a great surprise, the Becky Sharp filly being
defeated very cleverly, whilst Dryad, the second favourite,
could get no nearer than fourth. Tha Cup produced five
runners, of whom Speculum was made the favourite, but
the fielding for Blueskin was strong. Half a mile from
home only the two Goodwood rivals and Paul Jones were
left in the race with any chance of success, and on the re-
tirement of the Chester Cup winner, Mr Savile's colt ob-
tained a slight lead, and Kenyon almost simultaneously
taking a pull at Speculum, Blueskin's success was pro-
claimed by loud shouts, and odds offered on him, but di-
rectly Speculum was4llowed his head ho came away, and
won in a common canter, securing for the Duke of New-

castle, in the Brighton Cup, a tit companion to that which
the "Blacklock" won at Goodwood. Sir Oliver, with high
odds betted on him, won the Sussex Stakes from his only
opponent, Lady Lambton ; and after Lionel, with odds of
6 to 1 betted against him, had beaten a warm favourite in
Miss Gratwicke for the Welter Stakcs, the racing con-

eluded, with the Ovingdean Plate, which fell t,.) Miss Gltu
diateur, the backers receiving afacer in the defeat of Se.

The flag was lowered at the first attempt to an equitable

start, the Becky Sharp filly cutting out the work with a
slight lead of the Imperatrice colt, Dryad, The 'lsiah,
and Storm King, Trade Wind bringing up the rear. The
leading division remained unchanged for halt the distance,
when the lmperatrice colt took up a position at the quar-
ters of the favourite, the pair coming on head and head
for a few strides, when Mr. York's colt dropped back
slightly, and Storm King came up on the inside at the
commencement of the Stand enclosure, and heading the
Danebury filly opposite the Stand, won die ;erly by a
length ; three-quarters of a length divided the Imperatrice

of the lot. When about a hundred yards had been
covered The Returned took up the running, show-
ing the way at h moderato pace, Paul Jones and
Blueskin following at slight intervals, Speculum ling off.
After going about a quarter of a mile from the field be-
came somewhat straggled, but close order was soon as-
sumed again, and at the half-mile post the command was
taken by Paul Jones, who at the same time materially im-
proved the pace, The Returned following at tho quarters
of the Chester Cup winner, and Speculum at the same time
passed Turtullus, who, as they neared the mile post,
dropped into tho rear with The Returned, leaving Paul
Jones with a slight lead of Blueskinand Speculum. Three •

TIIE HARVEST IN THE EAST.—The harvest is being
brought to a close in Suffolk. The wheat crop in West
Suffolk is considered to be above the average, both in
quantity and quality ; the barleys are found, however, to
have suffered greatly from drought on the light lands. A
Newmarket letter states that barley and oats ara being
harvested in that district ; the writer adds :—" The wheat
harvest in this neighbourhood is finished, and an abun-
dance of *heat of the finest quality ever seen has been got
up in splendid condition."
THE Moons.—ln the North Riding the grouse
prospects for the 12th are variable. The watchers gene-
rally say that the birds are strong and have hitherto been
healthy, but the long drought is beginning to tell, there
being no water. Some of the moors were not shot over
last season, and these promise well, and several will not be
shot over this season, because large fires have destroyed
the heather and game. Generally grouse are not numerous,
but with rain, as a rule, a fair amount of sport may be
looked for.
