Donna, 4 yrs, Cst 21b. Calumny was scratched just before the start, and Envy and Yatterina were the favourites, the latter for choice. The following were placed :— Mr Walter's br Yatterina, aged 7st 41b ... 3 Mr Nosworthy's bin Malice, 5 yrs, 9st ... 2 A very good start was effected, Malice and Yatterina heading the leading division with Malvina, Envy and Shadow close up, and Harlequin in the rear. In this order they nearly finished the race until at the top, when Yatterina, coming into the straight^ ' assumed the lead and iiltimately won a very fast race by a length ; Malice was a good se cond. Time, 2m 45sec. This was the fastest race ever run on any New Zealand course. There is now only the Consolation Handicap to be decided. Handicap Race, f-mile. 40 JSOVS. : The horses Miss Flat, No Name, Dragon, and Kate Kearney were nominated. The latter was scrached. After a good race Miss Flat came away a winner by several lengths. The riders of Medora and Bismarck in a letter to the papers to-day repudiate any collision in the Hurdle race on the second, day. Bismarck's owner soratched him for the Handicap Hurdles on account of what he con sidered unfair treatment reoeived from the Jockey Club. The settling takes place to-morrow .at lattersall's. A race hall is to be held to^aight at the . Odd Fellows' hall under the aulpices of the Jockey Club.

WE beg to intimate that we are engaged in the compilation of an Almanac foi the Province of Auckland for the year 1873, whicli will be issued early in December of the present year. Without reflecting on any previous productions ir this special field of literature, we believe that we car produce a' work that will meet the wants of the residents in the city and province to an extent not yei attained by any local Almanac. It is not our wish tc define the points on which our Almanac will base its claims to supersede other local Almanacs, but we feel confidence in promising that it will find, its way intc more households and offices, and more nearly attain to the correct ideal,of a Provincial "Book " Almanac than anything of "the kind that has yet been sub mitted to the public of Auckland. THe information contained will be extensive and carefully compiled, and the literary portion of th« work will be executed in a manner that will satisfy the most fastidious, while our extensive and varied assort ment of new and .ornamental type, and the advantages cf our steam printing machinery will enable us tc produce a volume that for neatness and cheapness is not likely to be equalled in the district. We can therefore confidently recommend thii Annual as affording the best advertising medium Although the first year of issue the numerous agencies and correspondents of the Evening Star will provide i medium for bringing the , work immediately intc contact with residents in every part of the province and, as far as may be practicable, in other parts of th< colony. Mr. H. Ridings is the only person authorised t< collect advertisements. . . REED & BRETT. Jfvwifnp Stw office, Sept. 20,1872,
