The Rawcliffe Stud Company have purchased Newminster; and hired The Flying Dutchman, for next year, at fifteen hundred the

season.

Mr. Simpson, of Gillingwood, Yorkshire, has bought Hospodar of Lord Zetland, for the stud.

HORSES SOLD TO GO ABROAD.-Scythian, to Mr. A. Alexander, for America; Burgundy, at a thousand guineas, for Russia; Pitsford, for Australia; and The Libel, to Prussia. John-o'-Bruges also leaves the country; and Perea Nina goes to India. The prices of The Libel and Pitsford will be found in the Dudding Hill sale, last month. The Passcard colt and Barbette, yearlings sold at York, are for Prussia.

M. Aumont, a leading man on the French turf, retires; and the whole of his stud-a very extensive one-will be sold at the end of the season.

The St. Leger, reduced to a match between Ellington and Fazzoletto, perhaps never created so little excitement. The betting between the pair is now at evens, while 2 to 1 is laid on them against a field that threatens to be neither strong in individual nor numerical force. Regarding the last Derby as something of a mistake, we should go all for John Scott's horse.

Any transposition in the Derby table is almost entirely attributable to the public performances of the past few weeks. Zuyder Zee retires with his Goodwood effort; and Blink Bonny, backed within a few days to win the Derby, Oaks, and St. Leger, has the York running to forget or amend, ere she can again occupy so formidable a position.

THE OMNIBUS.

"There he sat, and, as I thought, expounding the law and the prophets, until on drawing a little nearer, I found he was only expatiating on the merits of a brown horse."-BRACEBRIDGE HALL,

The year is fast beginning "to slant its autumnal slope;" and a racing season of anything but a brilliant character is approaching its close. Warwick, which had, like the three legs on the Manx halfpenny, Melissa here, Melissa there, and Melissa everywhere, failed under its new three-days' régime; while Derby did not suffer from the encroachment. Ashmall reappeared here in the saddle, as Lord Ribblesdale had done as owner at Warwick; and little Mundy, on crutches, found his way to Doncaster, where Charley Marlow, whose leg is hardly strong enough to admit of his "wasting" this year, was also a looker-on. The recollections of Palmer spoilt the entries at Lichfield; and Calloway had a melancholy list of entries. Even Mr. Parr sent no horse to oppose Mr. Sykes, for the Queen's Plate; but Fisherman, with George Hall-that most faithful of valets to the Wantage stud-on his back, beat Rogerthorpe for that prize at Weymouth. This contretemps, added to the fall of Fazzoletto, gave the last kick to the St. Leger. We believe that Lord Derby's horse has broken down in the pastern of the off front-foot, and that it was not till he had nearly reached home, after pulling up from a very severe gallop, in which Warlock led, that it was discovered. We are told that John Scott had great difficulty in deciding, last year, where his weak point really was; and it is only wonderful that he has kept him on his legs so long. Trainers are having much trouble at present; and an epidemic is regularly going through stables, which developes itself in the legs filling, the heels cracking, and water fairly running from them. In fact, the Vets have been sorely puzzled. But I must hie forward to Doncaster, which I only reached at half-past ten on Monday night. Getting lodgings was no easy game. Scarcely a person thought of asking less than £2 for a mere bed; and one old dame declined to take in such as did not come in parties of three, and would not look at a solitary pilgrim. To my great delight, she never let her rooms that week. Would that these greedy geese would take a lesson from York! and many was the comparison which floated on the wind, couched in no roseate language. As the Christ Church clock pointed to half-past seven, I was on my road to the course, where things were sadly flat. Ellington arrived on Monday night, but did not, we are told, take a gallop-a fact which was remembered, to Tom Dawson's disadvantage, when the race was over. Wells, who now walks in Scotch attire, was sending Bonnie Scotland merrily along; and Artillery also went "great guns" more than
