At this point, Queen Besss lead was reduced to about length, and in descending.the h'il Ll llaklm got upon even terms with her. but tiring in the bottom, the two were caught and headed by Prioress, who attempted to hang as ID the previous race, until Fordham applied the Whp with hs lett hand, whereupon she atru-gIeI with great gamene and clearing the " Brtishers" in the cords, won in gallant style. though much distressed, by a leng Ii and d halt.

 WEDNESDAY, Oct l4-MR TEN BRoEcK's BELLE IN THE BEDFORD STAKEs.--Thc next event to be decided, the Bedford Stakes and appropriately enough the race was so far regarded as "certamty" for the noble duke alter whom 1t was named, that many book makers turned round, and laid to and to l on killlgrew; whilst others, from an idea that there was little chance of getting back the money the> dropped on I4a File du Regiment, declined to bet upon it. The "glorous uncertainty" l however, was again exempled and the truth of the old adage, it never rains but 1t pours," borne out ;n ;he defeat of the lavorte by Belle (purchascd by Mr. Ten Broeck at the Rawclffe sale last vear,) whereupon the success of the red ant white over the purple and buff "stripes' oi hlS Grace of Bedford created almost as great . sehsltion as when Fordham bore them in tri- umph on the American mare for the great event yesterday. Belle caught the whip d long way from home, and struggled with such extraordi- nary gameneSs that Foldham literally rode Pettlt out of the race at last. The latter, more- over, rode contrary to orders, 1t appears. and was severely reprimanded by Admiral Rous, who severed his further connection with the stable by ordering the jockey to deliver up his cap and jacket at once.
 The following is a recaptulaton:
