ss4ished that they knew the colt was ''out"
They were taking VIM. Penn against the neld,
the odds being ten to four. little further tn
quiry developed disappointment number two, in
the shape Of the announcement that Jacob Lerian
would not start. as he was sick. This LEFT the
race between VIM. Penn, Edwin Forrest and
Lady Patterson, the latter being new horse in
this section, with reported record Of 2:32.
Before the start, the judges ordered the colt
Hill and Lerian on the track, and in response TO
the summons they were produced. Lerian was
suffering with an attack Of pneumonia, and Hill
showed q iameness IN MS right hind leg, which
had been heavily ohstered.
The judges inspected the two animals and an
nOuneed that Lerian could W1thdrGW. a short
consultation was then held, and Mr. Ed. Moses,

not think Forrest had gained anything py his run,
and ne was awarded the heat.
Not daunted oy this adverse opinion, the driver
OF the game little mare prepared for the third
and atter most interesting heat came in about q
length ahead. After this heat Mr.. CLARK, the
driver Of Forrest claimed a foul, asserting that
the driver OF tne mare nr. ogden was sent for

This was not in good taste from a driver, but It
certainly accorded with the feeling Of Q great

ment, little anticipating what It would be. All
things, however, must have an end, and after all
was rung, and General Smith announced as the i
result; "Wlinsm Penn nrst. This was received
with groans and Kisses, which drowned the con-
eiuslon Of the statement. The General then
stated that the driver OF Lady Patterson had
