THE GREAT Ten MILE Foor RACE OVER THE BEA-
coz COURSE, HopoxES.-This affair comes off to-
day. The race is generally considered to be be-
tween the, American Deer (Wm. Jackson) and
John Gilderseeve. The formers performance on
Monday, has raised him much in public estimation ;
but inthat contest he had Gidersleeve to contend
against. IL is true that Jackson may not be vet
acclimated, and the present hot weather we know
affects hun. Both OF them are backed to consid-
cradle extent at evens and they WILL no doubt give
good account OF themselves. The two mile walk
ing match, being contested by the three first in the
last walking match will be quite interesting, as it is
thought TO be an even thing between those at that
distance. The Foot Hurdle Race will be an anu
sing one, as it is most likely there will be some
umbllng before they can all get over theefteen hur-
dies or bars, which to be three feet three inches
high.
On Monday last some four or five individuals
were arrested and taken to Jersey prison for break
ing the fences around the track several others met
with just reward for their nefarous attempts of the
like nature, In the shape of broken heads and
bruises. One person, we heard, had one his arms
broken by blow from one of the constables stafis
IN resisting him. Extra persons will be employed
to-day to keep the clear, and the proprietor
is determined to enforce the law far as possible
