CAPTAIN OSBALDISTON'S Us:rem—This feat, which consisted in riding for ten successive hours on an unlimited number of horses, and at a rate of not less than twenty miles an hour including all stoppages, was suc- cessfully performed on Saturday, on the round course, Newmarket, in 8 h. 42 m. being 1 h. 18 m. less than the time assigned. The match was for 1,000 guineas, and there were numerous bets. The stages were four miles each, but most of the horses went two, three, and one of thew —Tranby—four stages in the course of the running. Tranby ran hi sixteen miles in 33 in. 16 s. The chronicler of this great exploit remark on two accidents, one of which had very nearly put a stop. to it altage ther ; Clasher broke down, and IkeySolomons tripped. Had the honest Captain broken a leg or his neck by Ikey's tripping, there would have been such a rejoicing among those who had taken the odds against him ! Luckily he was only "a little flurried."
