THE GooDwooo RACES AT the late Good

the winner. The English horse Rlseber was
second, and Fisherman third. The American
horses Prior and PriOress were filth and sixth
iu the contest.
THs AMERICAN HoRsEs IN ENdLASD.-The
American horses, though very badly beaten in
the Good race. are not out of the field in
fact they seem to be just entering it, for we see
that they have no less than ten engugem nts
singly or together, running up to OctoJGr the

I.ecomte and Proress are entered with twenty

hear in few days how Lecomte behaved. On
the IO'h instant, Lecomie and PriUrcss run at

runs alone at York, single dash of one mile !;

al plate, terms, conditions weIg hts aud distance

The failure at the GOodwoOd race is attributed
10 the bad management OF their trainer, who
brought them in too high flesh 10 the post. II
is generally believed that they will vIudicate
themselves yet when they run into good condi-
t,on. Mr.. Ten Broeck seems determined to
test the merits of the different systems Of breed.
