Muleteer made all the running, uctil at the top of the hill,Totten-
ham-corner, followed by Rufus, closely looked after by Webb. It
is not in this case, as is frequently observed, that the horse well
landed here is nearly aiway the winner; for Rufus, in this case, got
a little in front, and kept the lead until within a ditta:lce or so,
when Webb, who had evidently laid by, let loose. got in front, and
won a good race in the most clever style by two lengths ; and :be
knowing ones say he might have multiplied the two by five or six.
In turning the corner, Cain slipped, and threw his rider (Spring),
who received a hurt in his arm, but not a severe one. James
Robinson, who, on a Phantom cult and a Phantom filly w m the
Derby and Oaks last year, again rode a winning race fur the Detby
on another Phantom colt.

This was a commou-place race, and was won easy.

Thus en..!ed the legitimate sports r.f the day ; but it
wa. intiniated that there was to be a fight, and a I.rge
concourse el the Fancy and rickpockets combined, as-
sembled in the hollow at the commencement of the
Two-mile Cows; but the crowd was so dense, as to
forkid the possibility of forming the ring. The Commi-
ssary immediately ordered the st.kes to be pitched in
the hollow near the Warren, and thither* tome of the

initiated followed. 11e arrangements were soon formed,
and a purse of twenty sovereigns collected, for which
Dick Curtis and Peter Warren agreed to fight.. At
this moment, the mob, who were waiting at the place
first mentioned, received a hint of the trick which had
been played upon them, and in a shalt time t';ey came
over in such a body as to create the most dreadful con•
fusion. Several quarrels took place, and among others
one between Tom Shelton and Ssockrwin ; anJ while
they wee in contact, a cowardly ft tend of Stockmaa
struck Shelton a heavy blow on the head hum belt nd,
and bathed him in blood.
