The following was the betting ;-2 to 1 agst the winner ; 5
to '1 agst Jock ; 6to 1 agst Reginald • 7to agst Tressilian ;
and 100 to 4 agst North Wester, out Of Charm.
Every inch of the ground was run at speed. Reginald, rode
by Buckle, made the play, and when within half e zrile of
home, Gustavus passed him, and the race became a severe one
between the three placed, and Lord Egremont's Octavius colt,
out of Truth's dam ; but Gustavus, rode by Day, kept the
lead, and won byhalf a length. It was as near at the public -
running of the same horses at the late Newmarket Meeting, as
the best judges anticipated. Jock became a favourite, because
Sam. ChifThey.rode lum„and Reginald kept his place because
Buckle steered him, but Gustavus is the best horse. _

cold weather during May, the plant assumed an unhealthy
appearance, and there was in consequence more inclination to

BRIGHTON, JUNE 7.—A new Public Journal
started yesterday at this place, under the title

It promises well, and as there are Jacobins in

to keep them in order, and put some restraint on
their tongues.
