TURFIANA.

(BY CHEVAL.)

I feel confident that should the Takapuna Jockey Club auhere to their present inten tion and hold their Summer Meeting on January 29th, a great mistake will be made, ar.d only partial success will crown their efforts. Iv the. first place it will clash with the Auckland Kegatta, and opposition to such a long-esfablished insti tution-for such it has become—would be decidedly harmful to both races and regatta, Again, the day is altogether un suitable, as the country people will not atteud, and many townspeople being sur feited with equine sports will not attend. I think the committee would be acting for their own best interests, and in consonance with the wishes of the public, were they_ to hold their meeting either during tlio Christ mns holidays or immediately after the Auckland races at New Year. Verb sap. The (leading event at the Mercury Bay annual races, to be held on the 2nd and 3rd February, is the Mercury Bay Handi cap ovf 60iO vs. There is also a Hu. die Kace of 40 ovs., and several miuor events. The Auckland Stud Company are in lucK. Sylvia, though 17 years of age, has given birth to another foal by Musket, the event having taken place last Tuesday. This fine old mare must now, allowing that tbe last addition to her family will realise something approaching the figure obtained for Martini-Henri, bave given the Company double her cost. It was a risky thing pay ing £2,000 for an old mare, but nothing suc ceeds like success.

Another " son of a gun " will sport silk at the forthcoming l'akapuna (spring Meet ing. Mr Alison's two year old colt tfepirt, by Musket—Lady Elizabeth, is ia active training, and shapes exceedingly well. Considering that ue is a late foal the condi tion he is in is surprising, JNoruinations lor the Napier Handicap, Welter Handicap, Kail way Stakes, and Hurdle Itace at the Hawke'B Bay J.C, Autumn Meeting, close Dec, 19. Acceptances tor the Takapuua Spring Meeting must be made to the secretary, Mr 0. C. JJacie, to-day. The weights issued during tbe week have caused a considerable amount of grumbling, but really for the life if me I cannot see that there is any cause for compiaiuc. For ihe big event—the St. Andrew's Hatdicap—l am of opinion f\at Mgger will lun well forward. I base this1 bclict on liia last season's form, and the tucounts to limit of hi;, excellent condition nud the go .d work he has betn doing. At ivy ittte, backers can rely upon the horse being sent, aud sent to win if possible. The iwners, Messrs Luder, intend sending him to the Tunnies raced at Christmas, and fit and,well, he should scoop the pool with ease. Fitz- Hercules,Yuba Bill, aud Dew ■ uop I fancy next in the order named. In the Hurdles, Harkaway (list 121bs) and Tiicotrin (12st lib) have heavy imposts, aud it is eaid they are overweighted, Not withstanding, one of these should win, and [ shall i>ot be surprised to see the double victor of Pakuranga, if he goes, lower the colour^ of Mr Shakespeare's crack, Harka way aud Yuba Bill areiu t.aining, and are reported to be us well as could be wished. Tueie haa been hardly any straight >ut be ting so far, both metalli aiana and tuckets beiug conient 10 do i bu. iiiobs in doubles on the Hurdles i.nd tlaudicap.

Sporting Notes from Home.

(Bjt Our Special correspondent in

London.)

Victoria Clob, London, Uct. 7. In initiating a scries of monthly letters for your columns under the above title, I desire to have it understood that I shall write for "all sorts and conditions of men," and not for those who care simply for an elaborate recapitulation of English racing returns Ordinarily I know the complaint of colonial readers is that they don't understand the letters relating about the sport at hone. " We learn," they say, " That Mr Tom Noddy's famoas horse Noodle, has carried uff the City and Suburban, or The Lincoln shite Handicap, or the Spencer Plate, in a canter, and that much money ha? been won tuerooy—but as we dont know where these races are run, have no idea of their histsry or relative importance, neverheard of Tom Noddy, and can't imagine how JN oodle is bred; it isn't possible for us to take much interest in the news." Tliete are the mistakes I mean to try and avoid. My articles will not be long, but I shall at least endeavour to make them lucid, and, whether dealing with racing, cricket, or aquatics, to give only such gossip as is of cosmopolitan importance.

The immediate result of Dutch Oven's unexpected victory in the St. Leger has been an alteration in the weights. Hitherto fillies at Doiicaster have been allowed 51bs, but so many of them have been successful of late years that they will only receive 31bs from ihe colts in future.

Your railway traffic managers in New Zealand make a fine fuss about despatching half-a-dozen special trains to the racecourse on a Cap day, and invariably arrange to have them painfully overcrowded ccming back. Well, at Doncaster, which is not a large station, on Leger afternoon, 145 special trains, averaging 20 carriages (tour compartments in each) apiece, were safely despatched between hMf-past three and half-past eight. This is something worth bagging about, "and really"—as the papers say—" reflects infinite crodit on the executive."

The week intervening between the mam moth re-union at Uoncaster and the first of the autumn meetings at Newmarket waa from a racing point of view, dull and un interesting. Those who make betting a means of getting bread and butter went to Hampton ('appy 'Amp(on), and did rather well. It is a Btraage, but nevertheless a

true fact that when backets do win it ,•» generally at the small meetings Th» barefaced "rowing" and swindling thn? eventuates on the«e suburban racseourJ. is scandalous, bat still, as a rule th favourites get home first. The reason of this is, uo doubt that bookmakers can\ keep a secret, They may know of a "dead 1 ud, bat they are so anxious to lav him that they get suspiciously generous ia their ' ' oners, and thus even the silliest betters hT ! come wary. Dick Clarke, erstwhile « I fairly respectable member of the New Zea land betting ring, has fallen veiy low since he came home. I should not say so if I had not learnt the cad truth by bitter exceri i. ence, The fact is the man's face Vss I familiar to me in Auckland and Danedin i and when I met him on an English race I course, I felt (as Mrs Gamp would savi ; "quite friendly like." Dick retiprocatid S by deliberately welshing- me out of 1 ten pounds, and there ia now a Blieht I coolness betwixt u». ' Last' time " the good man came across me, I imj! cated his presence to the detective in charca ' of the enclosure and requested bis immedi ate expulsion. Dick now gazes on the rioe I frurn outside, and will continue U do so at : whatever meetings " vis child " attends i | Talking of fiands reminds me that tho3a arch conspirators Murray, and the brothers Kurr and Baly, are out of prison ao a i n You will no doubt recollect ttie greaftarf swindles in 1877, and more especially the De Goncourt case, which resulted in the exposure of the London detectives Drua covitch, Meiklejohn and Palmer. Newmarket Heath is an ideal place for 1 the "sport ot kings." The race-coursee 1 which, to a stranger appear innumerable' -' are nearly all, speaking freely, straight, and i? so broad as to accommodate even thejargest leld of horses abreast with perfect comfort ; I The finest of the lot is probably the A.f! (across the flat), a magnificent undulating stretch, 1 mile 2 furlongs 78 yards in length at the head of which stand the various Is rings and paddock, The Jockey Club ate i aule masters at JN'ewmarker, and thus it ■ happens that the best part of lawns, &c, ' ■ - have_ been set apart for their benefit. The' public, however, can obtain admittance to the paddock by paying a sovereign, and heie on a fine afternoon — such as ' Tuesday last — all the notabilities of the Turf may be seen congregated, strolling in about half an hour before racing began, the first person I saw was Lord ;' Vivian, a tall, shabby, old man, with an extraordinarily hooked nose. He was congratulating Lord Falmouih and Mat thew Dawson on the result of the Leger, and the three of them were soon joined by ■ I the jolly lonking Duke of Portland, who, it is suid, will visit Australia and New Zea. land as well as India, during the next three I months. At one end of the enclosure stood her fut Grace, the uowagcr Duchess of Montrose, talking to her husband's (Mr W. S. Crawford) chief jockey (Charlie Wood), 9 whilst close beside them, I noticed George I Fordbam in the Bothschild dark blue and yellow cap, to ride Valentino in the first 11 race. But the saddling bell rings, and the "crack jockey," the invincible Archer, wearing Lord JJllesmere's "red, white I sleeves and black cap," is seen pre paring to mount the blinkered chesnut Bothwell—One of Archer's most remark- ' able characteristics is his ta'ent for riding ' bad tempered and rougish animals, out of whom others cannot raise a genuine gallop, There ia a well-known selling plater— a jady old gelding—callrd Tower and ■ Sword," which,-alttu ugh believed to be speedy, could never bs got to go till Archer . bettiode it. Hnce then he has made its name a terror to the ring, winning seven rac^s last season and nine this with the brute, wlrch, however, declines to gallop a yard with anyone else up. It is the fashion amoagtt old fogies to decry Ar- I cher's style of riding, but for my part I candidly &dm,t I never in my life taw such horseman-hip. The man's judge of pace is simply txraordinary. Be seems fo gauge the capabilities of his mouut to aT, I aod to know exactly when to come. Ford- ; bam used to make light of "Mr Archer" and his ways of getting home, but "the I t nman" (as his friends call him) has taught George some lessons. Oi eof these - occurred no less recently than Tuesday ■ last, when Fordham was riding Valentino. ■ He had, to it seemed, his field well beaten, and, with hands down, wus cantering home an easy winner, when Archer, who had j looked done for sometime previously, sud denly began to ride again, andßothwell answering gamely his call, he won literally on the post by a head This fa just the sort of ttick Fordham is always playing himself, and, save the backers of the I

tavourite (Valentino), no one was particu larly sony to see him done. Arch«r does not look.well, and will not, i should

imagine, ride much longer. The waste of, nervous power, consequent oa such per« petual excitement, must be terrible, and being worth more than £100,030, he_ can well afford to retire. Recently he has'won

some considerable sums at bc-ttiog,

WESLEYAN DISTRICT MEET ING.

Thursday Afternoon,

TH'C examination of the students, Messrs Mather and Marshall, was completed, and their cases decided upin. With regard to Mr Mather it was recommended that he bo. received on probation at fie ensuing conference, providing a circuit can be found where he would be under the guidance of* a superintendent. Mr Marshall was also recommended ti be received on probation. , Mr Bull moved the following resolutions, which were passed:—" That before any person comes upon the plan as a local preacher on Hal the superintendent shall be prepared to cettify that he has passed a satisfactory examination in the elements of English language and theology." 2, " That no preecher on trial be admitted into full connection as a local preacher until he has read the first 53 of Wesley's Sermons, the Third Catechism, and some standard work on Methodist theology." 3, " That wherever practicable, Superintend ents are recommended to form circuit theo loaical classes, for the purpose of assisting studious yonng men in the pursuit of 'their studies." 4. " That the conferencß adopt and authorise the use, in-the New Zealand churches, of the Book of Offices, _ containing the forms for the ministration of baptism, the administration of the Lord's Supper, and the burial of the dead, as recently revised by the British Conference." 5. "Thatthe. conference be also recommended to prepare a baptismal certificate card for presentation to parents on the occasion of the baptism of their children."

A conversation on the work of' God took place, in which moat of the ministers took a part. The journal was then read, and signed by the chairman. Votes of thanks were passed for the efficient and_ useful services rendered by the secretaries, re porters, and Press; and also to the kind friends who had entertained the ministers. This closed the business.
