... THE TURF. The ST. LEGER PROPHECY, by VATES, will appear EXCLUSIVELY in the ERA Of Sunday, September 13. The bright and palmy days of York seem to have passed by like a taile that is told, having nought but sweet though melabcholy reminiscence. Somehow, on re-reading this open- ing sentence, it twangs of mine ancient Minerva Press; we will stick the spurs in, therefore, and bluntly say, ...

... THE SPORTSAMAN.-Nimrod, the property of Mr. Lacy, of Pauton, near Loutb, looks really all that a hunter ought to be, and we envn Sir David Baird the davs he must have had on his back. Talk of a country being great, glorious, and free, it is too general ; to us it would be preferable to realize in particular, the exciting adjectives on the outside of such a nag, with the nerve in the right ...

The Warwick Meeting has naturally attracted the litd of the sporting fraternity, and rendered the operations at the Cor- ner consequientlybut very trivial in extent.

But bow came it there X not of his own goodness, but by the forbearance of one-the badness of others-and a pace that, likie a Stultz coat made to order, could not have better '5 suited. Fancy a St. Leger, with a known infirm one its first favourite, ieing run in four ...

It would seemn puerile in the extreme, and altogether a work of supererogation, after our explanations of the past week, to allude farther to any prophetic essay of our own, save for the purpose of clipping the pinions of those who would fly a little bit too high, either on the score of luck or judgment, and placing ourselves in that position to which we are duly entitled, either ...
