| and Mariana, an Autocrat mare Four only start
ed, Mariana being withdrawn. On the entities
being announced, John Bloun; Immediately
made iavorite vs.. the held,-n the evening he be
came so al odds OF 10 Sin the morning he adj
vanceI TO 10 L. and before the start 100 TO 35 was
freely offered. Fashion had but few friends, bat
those few, "Old aud tired" "sheled their coin
great advantage; rumor with It's thousand tongues
had placed Johu B.ount second to Boston ou.y, ana
this but made the timid more fearful.
In the trsI heat S.ockton led oil al q RAPID pace
with Blount and Lady Caution vel W, aud Fash
