EPSO M RACES.

Mr. Goddard'sb. c. by Smolcnsko, 3 yrs.

THIRD DAT, THURSDAY, MAT 25.
Epsom Races, from their vicinity to the Metropolis, present an
animated scene during the whole of the four days; but, on the
Derby day% it is so totally unequalled that it is hardly possible to
describe the OW ensemble. The ride to the Course, the meeting of
friends, the walk in the Warren. the interest in the horses, the sight
of the gay equipages, with their `test adornment, lovely woman, all
contribute to a great effect, and by coming once a-year, almost ap-
pear to mark the stealing bouts of time; and though ;heir return
brings to out recollection that we are one year older since last we
saw them, the remembrance is any thing but unpleasant. Not-
ithstatiding the tumultuousness of the meeting, there is a sociality
about it which reconciles us to its inconvenience; and, when on the
hills, gut rounded by thousands of cheerful faces, every disagreeable
feeling is removed, and it almo,t becomes a business to form one
of the immense assembly. At an early hour in the morning the'
" note of preparation is sounded," and but few hours elapse ere zit
are on the move—col onetted landaus, barouches and four, curricles,
chaises, gigs, cabs, coaches, waggons, carts, and every other descrip-
tion of vehicle are in requisition, with the thousands of equestrians
and the more humble yokels, who trudge their weary way, anxious
to witness the sports of the day, and, when they get a glimpse of
the scene of action, hasten on as if they Were the actual competitors
foe the prize. To describe the scene of yesterday would be im-
possible ; let the most unbounded latitude be given to the most vivid
imagination, it will fall far short of the reality. On a moderate com-
putation, upwards of 100,000 were present on this occasion.
The very unfavourable state of the weather did not appear to
have any effect; for, at a very early hour, the roads began to assume
a very animated look, and by ten o'clock, the usual indiscriminate
line of c-irriages, carts, and other vehicles, rendered them almost
impasuble, the whole string being Staioetimes stopped for nearly an
boar. Accidents out of number occurred, and two or three horses
were killed, but we did not hear of any thing more serious
By about one o'clock, the majority of the people reached the
Conrse, and then We were able to ascertain that the following No-
blemen, Gentlemen, &c. were present:
Their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of York and Gloucester.
The Dukes of Grafton, Portland, and Richmond ; Marquises
Blandford, Graham, Titehfield, and Exeter; Earls Jersey, Vera -
hm, Stradbrooke, rford,&c. Lards Fitzroy, Dunwich, lientinck,
Cavendish, Harborough, and General Grosvenor, Sir J. Shelley,
Colonel Russell, G. R. Robertson, Esq. Messrs. Greville, Irby,
Wyatt, Fleming, Stanhope, ace. &c.
The knowledge that the General and Panic would not start de-
prived the day's sport of half Its interest, and the incessant rain
threw a damp upon the whole.
The betting on this great Stakes has, from. the beginning to the
end, been of that extraoldinary nature that will not admit of ex-
planation, and it is well known that the safest betters and best cal.
culators on the Turf have bad very great difficulty to make their
books square • indeed it is a matter of doubt if there was a really
tofu Derby book at all previous to the decision of the Stakes. The
fluctuations have been unparalleled throughout, some of the fa-
vourites, having.been not only thrown into the back ground, but
absolutely forgotten; such as Cedric, Bolivar, Gramarie,&c. Of
late the General has been a perfect Shuttlecock in the betting cir-
cles; be has knocked about from the bottom to the top, and back
again alternately, and without mercy, an enormous stem Wang it
Make; all Newmarket was on him, and nothing else; so that k
nizy be supposed not a little interest was excited as loos as there,*
was in abeyance: its effect may be imagined. 3.,,

ZU to 1 apt Twatty (the winner), 50 to 1 apt Centaur, SO to 1
apt Bolivar, 50 to 1 apt the Baron.
A good-deal was done just before starting, but only making
Premier a better favourite at 2 to 1.
Tea Race—At the signal, they went off at a good pace, Shah-
spear.: took the lead, and made the running up the bill to Tattenham
Corner, with Carthage, Dorina, Twatty, Dervise, and the Mosiem,
closely laid to him ; soon after they got tolerably well landed at
• Tattenham Corner, Shakspeare still in front at the ropes, Twatty
came up, and gut a-head, keeping the lead, with Shakspeare and
the
claw at his quarter • they continued at a famous pace to
the end, when Twatty won the great Derby Stakes by a length,
cleverly. The favourite, Premier, was done up at the Duke of
York's llulthing•lsouse--notwithstanding Chiffney was very liberal
with both whip and spur, he could not go any further, and came in
last. The Baron and Truth were beat a long way from home,
while Monarch, the Moslem, Rush, &c. came in with the crowd.
The result was totally unexpected, and may produce some unplea-
sant consequences, but Tuesday next, at Tattersall'e will chew.

SETTING ON TEM NAXII.
7to 4 'opt Problem, and 4to 1 apt Forth's two. Vert Iltd4 done.
Having now brought our notice of the legitimate sports of the day
to a dose, we may be allowed to remark, that the return from the
races was essentially different in character to the journey to them-.
The bouyaccy of spirits of these who, went for amusement, and the
feverish• auxitty of chose whom object was business, had alike
vanished, and in many instances given plat=e to the delusiye excite.
meat to inebriety. The joyous hearts who, in the morning, had a
nod or wink, and a, merry answer, (or the road-side wits, were
now mere pas.ivs Luis for their coarse unbridled raillery, which
was pointed as well at their alsered desaleamour, as at their habili-
ments. which. from the state of the roads, and the confusion of the
race•course, had experienced a metantorphosis,as complete as lithe
magic sword of Ha elegant bad been at work, smarting under the
lash of ridicule, freely and indiscriminately bestowed. There were
nut a few who blessed themselves, when they brought their jaded
horses, and no less jaded selves, to a comfortable anchorage at home.

The kgs will make a rich harvest by Brother to
Twatty winning the Derby. He was an outside horie,
and scarcely thought of, so that no money of int On-
sequence was laid against him. The sportink circles
are all in uproar, in consequence of The General. being
withdrawn. Several leading men have declared their
intention of not paying on him.
At the Middlesex Adjourned Sessions, yesterday, Mr.
Alichacl Abrahams was convicted of an ;assault on Jacob
C. he.n, on the 12 h April. and sentenced to pay a tine
of 6". sd. arid to enttr into recogniaances to keep the
peace for one year.

LAW REPORT.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, MAY 2S.
WILLIAMS AND OTHERS V. WILLMAN.

This was an action to recover 501. money had and
received by the defendant. The defendant pleaded that
he was not liable, on which issue was joined. Mr. Ser-
jeant WILDE, and Mr. CAMPBELL. conducted the plain-
tiff's case ; Mr. SerjeglM. ADAMS, and Mr. HUTCHINSON,.
the defendant's.

The plaintiffs wet e bankers, the defendant kept money
at their house. Among other sums was one of fifty
pounds which had been paid in. This,"it appeared,
had been entered in the pass book twice. In consequence
of this doUble entry, credit for one bundled pounds
had been given to the defendant. The acti •n was
therefore brought to recover the above sum. at the
part of the defendant, the son of that person was called,
who deposed that there had been two sums of 504
paid in, and that he had seen the entries made in the
pass-book.
The Jury, having consulted some minutes, teturne4 a verdict for
the plaintiff—Damages .150. Costs, 40,.

LITILift AND ANOTHIta V. HUDSON.

This was an action of assumpak, for goods bargained and sold
Plea, the general issue.
It appeared that in February, last year, the defendant
purchased of the plaintiff twenty-nine chests of lac-dye,
at the rate of four shillings per pound. and agreed to
pay for the same in the following month of May. Be-
fore the time of payment had arrived, the price of the
commodity had fallen in the market, and the defendant
applied to the plaintiffs for an extension of credit, and
deposited with them three chests of sapphire, by way of
collateral security. The market price es:winning to fall,
the plaintiffs gave the defendant notice, that unless he
paid for the dye by a given day, they would sell it, and
resort to him for any loss upon the amount of the on•
ginal invoice price. On the 21st July they effected a
sale accordingly, at Ss. per pound, and a loss of 3331.
ISt. arising, they brought this action for the purpose of
recompensing themselves.
The question left to the Jury was, whether the plaintiffs bad
agreed to give the defendant an extension of credit, for if they had,
then the Learned Judge told the Jury that such an agreement.
would be a waiver of any claim to damages.
The Jury found for the defendant.
