TURFIANA.

(by cheval.)

Thb following itema are trom tho late Mr John Smith's stable : Maid of Honour has re-visited Musket; Xantippe, who was tervcd by Cap;a-pie, dropped a toal on Fri day. The Stud Company's mare Pearl Ash has dropped a (illy foal to Musket. The added money for the forthcoming faceting of the Pakuranga Hunt Club w the Same aa last year. The went, are :- Maiden Hurdles, Members' Steep! echase,i Pony Kace, Members' Hurdle Race.Ladido Bracelet, Open Steeplechase and Consola- S°Sterlingwth was sent to tho Waikato during the wdi'k, wbsre he will stand a who won tho Otago Huttt Club Steeplechase the other day, is by the Stud Company's horse, Anteros, out of Gossip, a mare of Traducer. The. Waefangn-Hika (Poverty Bay) races fake place on the Oth and 10th ult. The added money totals close on £300, and it UdditioD, a silver cheque will be given away for a Corinthian Cup Kace, ana a diamond locket for A race—the entries for which are to be nominated by Wdies. ! Though the Middle Park Stud Company bave allowed tho Auckland Stud Company to forestall them by the purchase of IMr Stead's splendid brood mare.', they have in Apremont, which a telegram received during the week states they nave purchased, secured one of the most grandly bred stallions in New Zealand, tie is a young horse, having been bred four years ago by the celebrated French Sports man, Count Lcgrange. lie is by Mortemar out of Aurecaua, and is consequently full brother to Chamant, the sensational winner of the Two Thousaud Guinea!', and the Middle Park and Davhurst Plates, and half-sister to Camelia, which mare ran a dead heat for the Oaks and won the one Thousand;Guineaß. He is also paternally related to Rayon dOr, winner of the Leger, Row's Memorial, and Champion Stake!l, »nd St. Christophe, winner of the Grand Prix. Amongst other triumphs, bia sire, Mortemar, won the A Bcot Gold Cup, and rau second in the Caester Cup, with 9st. 31b, up, heating, on that occasion, the renowned Rosicrucian (Bst 121bs). Mortemar now belongs to Mr Lorillard, the American sportsman. Apremont has never faced the starter's flaK. having mot with an accident in the d»y« of early colthood. The Canterbury people are to be con. gratulated on retaining this splendidly bred animal in their district. The two other sires of Mr Stead's stud, Leolinus and Cadogan, have not yet been disposed of, and it seems probable that they will go to th« hammer on the 11th of next month. I may take occasion to say something about them before that date. Ky far the most interesting event of the week, in the sporting world so far as Auckland is concerned, a any rate, is the announcement tha tho Auckland Stud Company hare purchased all Mr G. G. Stead's brood mares. Fall deicriptiom of each of tbcta noble dams have already appeared in the columns of thi« journal, and the facts I in tend now givirjg about them must be ac cepted inerely#»s supplementing what has already been published. Perhaps tho pick ot the bunch are Fnlchra, by Rosicrucian— Formosa ; Crinoline, by Loid Lyon— Crinon; aod Sweei Cicely, by Lord Clifton—Cecilia j butthcy are all to well bred—repiesentatives of the most aristo cratic equine circles —that assessment of their worth is no easy task. Pulchra's sire —llosicrucian—4 years ago wai purchased for 11,500 guineas, and bis service fee is now fixed at £105. His yearlings sold last year realised more money than those of any stallion in England. In 1876 Formosa, Pulchra's dam, was sold for 2,700 guineas. In Crinoline's veins courses the blood of Ptockwcll, See-Saw, and Touchstone names that will be famous a« long as racing endures. A year or two Bgo a yearling fitter of her's realised 610 guineas, and a half-sister 1,300 guineas, at the Cobbam stud sale. There is a remarkable fact about Sweet Ciooiy. tic, that her Bire, her thro* half-brothers, Hawthorndeo, Wen lock, Petrarch, and her half-sister

Jannette (all on her father's side) won the St. Leper; while her dam and her granddam, Siberia, each succeeded

in monopolising the One Thousand Guineas. I bad almost forgotten to men tion Steppe, and her close relationship to Hermit would make that an un pardonable blunder. She i i a fine black rnnrc, and is said to resemble her fire, Saunterer, -winner of the Goodwood Cup, and oue of the handsomest horses of hi« day. She has performed on the turf at Home creditably, but not very luckily. Her host performance as a three-year-old if as running second to Hannah for tho Ono Thousand Guineas. TheottmEnglish mares in the Stud Company's purchase are all re lated on both sides to winners of the great classic race?. Of the fine colonial-bred mares, three are by Traducer, a name that mill always shins resplendent iv the turt annals •£ this colony. The added money of the Warjganni Cap hai been reduced to £500. Writes the sptrting contributor of the "Weekly Press":—"The Auckland re presentatiTe, King Quail, tor tho UJ.O. Handicap, has found quarters in Mr Sea bright's now stables, and ia undergoing his preparation under his owner's charge." Petronel (says the London correspondent oE " Town and Country ") was made a great pot for Her Majesty's Plate, bat only the horse's gameness and Archer's determined riding averted n defeat from the somewhat common looking Wolseloy by Vicarious frem Jophiette by Brown Bread from Sophia by Stockwell. " Old John Day " (cays an English sport ing 'writer, in describing the recent Stock bridgo meeting) "who is nearly, if not quite blind and very feeble, was led on ts the course upon the back of his grey pony, and It wa« rather a sad sight to see him still clinging to tho sport in which hs could no longer participate." The person referred to is the head of the celebrated Day familyl of trainers, of which Edward Day, recently of Auckland, was a member. Mr Bouse, tho owner ot Sting, has been Retting "rubbed the wrong way" over a little piece of business at tha Hawkenbury Meeting. On the. first day be started his two horses, Sting and Spark, in the County Puree of 1£ milei,. the former having Oat, and the latter 7st 51b. Directly it was eeea that Sting would be a starter, those who were acquainted with the capa bilities of the herie backed him tv wi«. But the mpposed moral did not come off, the favourite being sowhere, Hastings just beating Brian Bora on the post. In the Hawkesbnry Handicap, Sting and Brian Bora met on relatively the same terms as they did in the County I'urie, both hiring a stone less to carry, a fact which somewhat noro favoured Brim Bom. It ia now A matter of history that sting landed an easy winner in the fastest time for 1J

miles over run ia Australia, " Caspian," writing anent that barefaced affair, says he "recollects the case of Mat a, which re sulted in the disqualification of both horse and owner for ever." Victorian horse owners object to touting. They say that the public Know as much about their horses as themselves, and thi oaten, if it is not put a stop, to, that they will not train at Fleming ten. My London correspondent, writing by the Suez mail, contributes the following spotting items :— The valuable yearlings, purchased at Newmarket by Mr -Long, of Grand Flaneur notoriety, will remain in England for their racing careers. Tho colt by Kisber, out sf Hermione, figures amongst the entries for the Derby of 1884, whilst the expenßlye filly by Hermit— Breakwater in nominated for the Oaks. Mr Long continues purchasing valuable yearlings at every available opportunity. On July 21st, at Sandown Park, he gave 1,000 guineas f« a bay filly b> Blair Athol oat of Cauldron (whole sister to La Merveille, winner of the Cambridgeshire in 1880), and 200 f«r a nice brown colt by Sterllng-Nitocris. A most successful race meeting was held at Kemnton Park, neat London, on Thurs day, Friday, and Satnrday, July 13, 14 and 15, the chief event being the July Handi cap over a straight mile, worth £920. For this a dozen competitors came to the pott, the winner turnine; up in an outsider aamed Winterbourne, belonging to Cannon, the jockey, Mr Crawford's Edelweiss second, and Mr Walton's (the American plunger) Sutler third, Harden was favourite, at 7 to 2, ISO to 7 being laid against Winter bourne, 7 to 1 Edelweiss, and 100 to S Sutler,

MINING NEWS.

{FROM THE "COROMANDEI, MAIL,")

Little NiiiA.— Lowrie and mate have taken this mine on tribute; the reef averages about 1 foot throughout; a little is seen at each breaking down, and a good return is expected fiom the crushing, Just-in-Timk. —In the second rise, started 80 feet along tbc level going north' about 121bs. of good picked stone waa broken out during the week, thus proving the ground to be good. Gold was also seeu along thelevel a further distance of over 40 feet, an important fact when it is con sidered that the block of ground above is intact, aud the gold now bting got is probably a distinct tun from that worked on by the original shareholders before the shaft was sunk.

lOKA.—Tenders were received for the erection of machinery, and that of Messrs Harrison and Robinson of £155 has been accepted. Tbe contractors have already made a start with their work, and the job. could not possibly have fallen into better handß. The old lona Company with a horae whim sank the shaft to a depth of 200 feet. At 110 feet a icef was cut carry, ing rich specimens, but on being worked it was found to be cut off about 20 feet from the shaft both ways. The mining surveyor reported that this was a slide from the Bide of the hill, and that it a drive were put in at the 160-feet level the reef proper would be cut at about 70 feet. Thin drive was carried in within two feet of the required distance, when the manager noticed a little drop of water comiDg in at the face ) he drive apiece of sharp steel in, and found it rasping against some hard substance, andaa he expected thcreefin hand at any moment, he stopped driving to get the face squared up, aud on going to work next morning found the shaft half, full of water. After trying for some time to reduce it wit'i the wbim, and, finding this impossible, tlii mine was closed, -Tbe present venture, it is hoped, will unlodc the mystery, and as suitable machinery is going up, a very litte time will put the shareholders in pos ession of the reef. ■: Try Again.—A .'mall parcel of ltoa gave 4 oz. 2 dwts. Union Beach,-! lie Tangye was got into position near ihc SO feet^levelon Wednesday eveoing, and by Tuursday night the water was lowered to 113 ftet; in the first half h ■ur after the ianyKe com menced work, the water lowered two feet. Mr Morrisou appears to luve everything going smoothly and well. ~i , Kapanga.—Several parcels of rich stono came to hand during the week. The water is lowering and the shift will probably be emptied sooner than was at first anticipated. Matawa.l.—Steady -work is being carried with unvarying results, the reef looking well and showing fair gold.

LANGFOItp AND party are carrying on very extensive sluicing operations, jii Matawai Battery.—The fine weather has enabled this work to be eaniedon more expeditiously than was possible duting the late winter.

Tokatba.—The manager gives no fur ther report than that submitted to the directors on Monday:—On visiting the mine on Thursday I found that a splendid dig is forming in the left hand or hanging wall branch, which ia now being followed in No. 1 crosscut, leaving the right branch to be followed when the level is sufficiently advanced to be out of the way of. the men. In No. 2 crosscut another leader was inter sected last night, making the sixth* Which has been cut in the drive so far. Tlicso prospecting operations from the low level have proved successful, as although there is so great a distance between the footwall and hanging wall they correspond with the walls of the intermediate level where they commence to divide. It may be stated as indicative of the character of the reef driven in in this crosscut that a little gold has shown through the stuff from the com mencement of the crosscut right up to the present face. , ■ Bissiaeck. —Do"vnie and party, tributers, have started work in repairing the framing. Royal OAK.-Sunderland, tributer, is crushing a small parcel at the Corby bat tery. Habbotjr View.—Tributers are at work in this mine.

Colonial.—The face of the low level driven through the Thrush ground, has reached the boundary of the Colonial; and displays a fioe reef in the face. The two last shots fired have broken into nice country, and the reof has opened out to its best size and appearance, looking exactly as it did about when the dividend payable stuff was obtained, for it must bs borne in mind that the Colonial is the only'mine on the Tokatea range which has, during the past year or so, paid a dividend. Paul's Creek Association.—A fine reef is in hand in the stope coarse, blotches of gold being discernible in tho stone ; an intermediate level is about to be sta'tcd.

Inverness.—Half of this claim i-< to be sold by auction under distress warrant, Reserve. — I his mine is being s cadily worked. Tho manager reports having driven7ofeet siDcelastreport making a total distance of 135 feet; have 40 feet more to drive to cut Home Rule reef; have cat a reef ebout nine inches thic£ last1 week, from which we got nice looking stones, but couldnot obtain any goId.—PeterBAEUETT Tiernan's.—The manager crushed a lump of picked stone weighing three lb?, for a yield of one oz., eeven dwts j he has SOlbs picked stone on hand. . , ; Blackmore's. —Work is beiDgprosecuted without any special change. Un»n Beach. — Davies and "party, tributers on Green Harp leader, obtained 79OES from 316 tone. • ,
