DONCASTER RACES.—The threatened call of the House of Commons has

very much thinned the assemblage of fashionables at these races. We shall content ourselves with quoting the runnings from the sporting circular-in the Daily Papers. A greater stake than the St. Leger is now in course of being run. The odds are by not a few represented as against the favourite; we shall, nevertheless, yet back him against the field, numerous as are the tricks put in requisition by his enemies to de. feat him. The race may be a close one, but " Young Reform" will come in foremost, and those who have betted so heavily against him will be levanters for the rest of their lives. In the mean time, we proceed to

chronicle the feats of Chorister.

At Starting, the odds averaged as follows :- a to 1 against The Saddler. 18 to 1 against Colavick (taken)

7 to 2 against Marcus. 20 to I. against The Chancellor (talc.)

9 to 1 against Liverpool. 25 to 1 against Creole.

12 ,to 1 against Delight (taken) 25 to 1 against Brother to Homer.

13 to 1 against Circassian. 25 to 1 against Lady Elizabeth (tak.) 14 to 1 against Tarrare (taken) 40 to 1 against Achilles. 45 to 1 against Sir John.

The start was admirably managed by Mr. Lockwood jun. who had started the horses for the St. Leger four successive years without a single false go. They went Off at the first attempt-Brother to Tarrare had an excellent start, and made first running, followed by Chancellor, Tetotum, and Mal Gardee; The Saddler, Liver- pool, Lady Elizabeth well up with them, and Chorister about the centre, with Ru. .bini, Circassian, and Sadler's two. Cblfney, on Marcus, went off last, and strange to say, was little better than last at any period of the race. Tarrare did not con- 'time the lead further than half way to the hill ; he then fell back into the crowd, and was heard of no more. Chancellor carried on the running, the other horses preserving their places as stated above ; nor did any movement of importance take place till they got to the Red House, where symptoms of distress manifested them- selves. Marcus was the first to cry out, and, in point of tact, he was now dead beat ; Colwick, who had sickened at the bill, followed Marcus, and in a few strides more we perceived Creole, Circassian' Delight, Achilles, and Sir John drop astern : at the rails all these were out of the race' completely, together with Joan of Arc, Streamlet, Panton, and two or three others whose names do not now strike us. To return to the Red House. Tetotum was now in the crowd, and Chancellor was passed by Mal Gardee as they neared the rails ; The Saddler, at the same time, went up to the mare, whom he had passed a little below the distance. Chorister, who bad hitherto been waiting with great patience, now began to draw upon The Saddler, but it was not till they were opposite the stand that he made a serious effort. He then challenged, and between these two a beautiful struggle ensued, the last stride deciding it in favour of Chorister by half a head only Till the judge's decision was given, the majority of the lookers on were of opinion that The Saddler had just won it, and those who had watched him up the distance declare that it was then 100 to 1 upon him. That he was fairly beaten, however, is clear to us ; but we cannot help thinking that he is the best horse of the two, and that it is to John Day's fine riding that Lord Cleveland's success is attributable. La Fille Mal Gardee was third. The honour of being fourth rests between Chancellor, Lady Elizabeth, and Liverpool, who were all together. The pace was excellent, and the race very truly run. Chorister is the first of the Lottery stock that came out last year ; he is likely to make the blood fashionable, especially when it is considered that Mal Gardee and Lady Elizabeth (both Lottery's) ran very forward.
