In fairness to au always activo ollicial it should be mentioned that tho longest recorded dolay in bringing oil' the great ovont of tho year was in no way chargeable to Mr Manning, whoso weighing mid telegraphing was completed, as usual, half an hour before tho appointed timo. Tim horses, not-withstanding, wore fifteen minutes lato in reaching the post, where thoy were detained full forty more by no fewer than thirty-two failures, principally caused by Ditto Mantle breaking nway and refusing to come bock in front, und by Tambour Major still moro obstinately declining to go up in tho rear. In both casos tho heavy " dogger " wua administered behind, which, while oper-ating successfully on Captain Lauo's oolt, though not without considerable irritation, mid, consequently, a damnging effect on his chance, was of no avail in persua-ding Count Batthyany's horse, whoso kiokiug and plunging only increased with the flagellation and a freo application of tho " prickors." A number of opportu-nities were thus frustrated in gotting the lot away in capital order, which, however, was evonfually effected at fifty-six minutes aftor threo o'olook, by leaving Tambour Major at tho post, who, to the disgust of his owner and a host of backers, took no port in tho raco. Immediately tho flag was lowered, the colours of Lord Glasgow on Clarior woro seen in advance, followed by Early Purl, who directly aftovwards took up tho rnnniug, only, how

ovor, for tho first threo hundrod yards, vvhon Bright Cloud, insido, showed hi tho van with a clear lead. Uis immediate followers comprised Sacoharometor, Tom. Fool, Fantustio, King of tho "Valo, Ranger, The Gillio, and King of Utopia, with Donnybrook, tho favorito, and Maccaroni lying moro in the centro of tho courso_ about about ovon with them. Next, extending to the right or clustering at thoir quarters, wera Bluo Mantle, Rapid Rapid Rhone, Avondale, Aggressor, Giles the First, and

Sacanmndcr, who eventually headed the second division, I including Oncsander, Safoguard, Golden Pledge, Early Purl, and Aggrossor ; while Dunkold at tho tail of tho ruck was succeeded by the Physalis colt, last ofT, and bringing up tho oxtromo rear. Entering tho milo oourse, Bright Cloud, evidently not recovered from his accident at Bath, was in troublo, and dropping back loft Donny-brook in front with Lord Clifden at his side, tho Cloud following thom to tho six furlong post, when ho swerved in a further retrogrado uiovoment, and brought down Sacoharometor, who struck into his beela. Fantastic, coming noxt, bounded over tho fallon animal, but "nosed" tho turf on landing, and throw Custtmco on to his neck, in which position ho rejnainod somo timo oro regaining the saddle. King of tho Valo, in Fantastic'« track, rolled over Lord Strathmoro's horse, and riding, went on without his rider ; King of Utopia, closo to whom was Ranger, having miraculously escaped by crossing Sacoharomctor's quartors. Thence Lord Clifden slightly headed Doimyorok round Tottenham Corner, Toni Fool lying third, succeeded in a body, as thoy carno down the bill, by Tho Gillio, Macaroni, King of Utopia, Scamander, Bangor, Onosaudcr, Safeguurd, Blue Mantle, and rapid Rhone ; the latter, contrary to calculation, turning out to bo the best of Lord Glasgow's seeing that Clarior now figured with tho compounded lot, most prominent among which woro National Guard, Count Lagrango's two, Avondale, Aggrossor, Michael Scott, tho Physalis colt, and Trojan us Directly nftor ontoriug tho straight, whore Donnybrook was beaton, Tho Gillio, noxt the rails, looked formidable for a few strides, but out 'it tho moment ho was called upon, and Macaroni, with Tom Fool at his side, bocamo tho attendants of tho favorite, still in command. Upon the retirement of Tom Fool within the distnnco, King of Utopia rushed up on the right, and for a moment appeared to have a shado tho best of it, his advantage,

however, as speedily subsiding at tho Stand, opposito which Lord Clifdon looked like going in on easy winner, but changing his log immediately Chnllonor sot Macaroni going, tlio lattor reached bim at last, and won on the post by a head. Rapid Rhona, overhauled Mr Whittakers colt in tho last dozen yards, finished third, half a longth off, ahead in advance of Bluo Mantle, coming with a rattloontho lowor ground, as far from King of Utopia was fifth, boating Ranger, by tho same, Onosander being seventh, nt his girths, Safeguard and Scamander finishing so eloso up with the last-named pair as to rondor doubtful their exact positions. Early Purl, Clarior, Golden Plcdgo and Oilcs tho First woro noxt, and nftor thom Fantastic broken down badly in the off fore log. Tho hindmost lot comprised Dunkeld, Baldwin, Trojanus, Bright,

Cloud, and Avondale ; the absolutely last boing Aggressor -the stable companion of tho winner. Neither Hughes nor Daley were injured in their fall, the former remount-ing Saccharomotor and -wnlking him in from near tho spot whero the contretemps took _plnqo.
