BRIGHTON RACES.—TUESDAY, JULY 31.
As the account we gave yesterday of the Town Plate
of 50/. was incorrect, owing to the confusion which existed
during the running, the course being so badly kept that
the horses could not know their ground, and all ran out,
most people thought that the Plate had been won by Mr.
Scaith's, but the correct running is thus :
Mr..Caulftelii's b. f. Whimper, 3 yrs .... 2 1 1
Mr. Scaith'S b. c. by Octavius, 3 yrs .... 1 2 dr
Lord Egremont's b. c. Porpoise, 3 yrs ... die.
WEDNESDAY.—The Sussex Plate of 501., for all ages.
Heats, two miles. The winner to be sold for 250/.

Mr. Caulfield's b. f. Whimper, 3 yrs .... 3 1 1
Mr. T. Jones's gr. h. 'Br. to Richmond 1 2 2
Mr. Brown's b. m. Maid of Kent, aged... 2 dr
The Scrub Stakes.

The Duke of Richmond's Gulnare, which was entered
in Captain Berkeley's name, received forfeit from Mr. Gre-'
ville's Maria (belonging to his Majesty), Lord Egremont's
b. c. by Whalebone, and Mr. Scott Stonehewer's Theorem,
consequently. ,there was no race.
The weather was delightful both days.—lt bad been
expe#ed that several of the King's horses would run here,
but they were, we understand, sent to Southampton Races,
and could not be brought to Brighton in time. The Races
have certainly gone off more flatly, and brought less com-
pany than in former years, but we hope this will not be
the case again ; and, indeed, we believe arrangements have
already been made to ensure good Stakes for next year.
We know that a gentleman has guaranteed 300/. to the
leading noblemen who patronise the sports here, request-
ing them to arrange the several Plates in such a manner
as may prove most satisfactory to those who have horses
to run.—Brighton Gazette.

MAZE RACES (IRELAND).—TUESDAY, Jutx 24.
Match, Heats.
Mr. Savage's Independence
Mr. Battersby's Seaford

Independence was, during the second heat, evidently
kept in rein, for the purpose of winning the race.
Wennitspi.v.—King's Plate of 1001. for Irish-bred horses,
not exceeding six years old, carrying 9st. 71b. each.
Heats, four miles.
Mr. Kelly's Miss Foot
Mr. Blake's Polydore 1 2

After the second heat Polydore gave in. Betting at
starting 2 to .1 is favour of Miss Foot ; after the first heat,
2to lon Polydore. Betting ran high, and it is said that
so fine a race has not been witnessed on the Maze Course
since the brightest days of Abbot's performance.
