ced on Thursday, the winning of second race in
England by an American horse. MIR Ten Rrocck's
Belle having won the Bedford stakes at Newmarket
on the l4th inst. In regard TO the CesRrewitch
triumph, and the future operation of American
horses ON the English turf, we copy the following
paragraphs from Porters Spirit of the Times:
There are now but two events in which our horses
