The races over this new and we'll arranged course,
commenced yesterday, with . Post Stake, four
mile heats, $500 entrance, 500 forfeit-$1000
added by the Club-to which there we're four sub
scribers, viz: Messrs T & W boswell, John Hun.
ter, X II Dickinson and James NJ Taylor.
Whsu the hour for starting arrived, the Messrs
boswell named the invincible "Planet," Mr Huns
ter named 20 Hare'-) Tar River, Mr. Dickin son
named Don Juan, and Mr. Taylor paid forfeit.
As soon the entries were announced, Planet
was made the favorite at three to one: and before
the word was given five to one was offered that he
would win.
light showers before the race. There was also a
smart fall of rain between the first and second
heats; but the weather could not have been better
for the horses, and no rain scarcely fell during
either OF the heats. Immedi lately after the last
heat, the clouds let down their watery contents
pretty freely, and it rained with steady though
not very heavy fall of rain during the evening"
The sport was very fine.
First Hsat.-The horses got good start, and
the arst three miles we're we'll contested. Planet
Was the leader, being run at by each Of his com.
petitors in turn, but chiefly by Tar River. In the
fourth mile, Don Juan, who had showed signs Of
fatigue. dropped far behind, and evidently gave
up the contest He had not reached the distance
stand before the flag fell, and he was out of the
field
Second Hcat-Pianet had been held throughout
the FIST heat, and came up in fine condition for
the second. Tar River was also apparently pre.
pared for serious dispute with the fsvorte for the
palm Of victory Tar River got off ahead, but
was soor overtaken and passed by the nimbIe
Planet, who kept the lead for the whole four
miles. Tar River ran at him at the close of each
mile, but was unable to pass him. At the close
of the last mile. Tar River came out about two
lengths behind Planet, under pretty sharp ap-
plication of the lash.
Time First Heat.-First mile. 1:55-second do,

Second Heat.-Firss mile. I55-sscond do, 3:52-
