Hedley, R.Es and Mr. D'Almeda of Singapore on the Cricket Ground some eighteen months ago, in which the first named pair scored a.clever victory, yesterday's show, far as skill went, was a very poor one.
[FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.] ́(By_Telegram.)
A noteworthy feature of this bandicap has been the uninteresting character of the various competi tions. The victors in almost every heat, from the very beginning of the series up to and including the final bout, winning with ridiculous ease- This does not say much for the handicapping, almost without the semblance of a competition. which was supposed to place the "cracks" and the duffers on equal terms. It has been conclusively demonstrated by results that the winners of the competition could easily have given the runners "up" a start of half the game, and it is almost equally certain that Bunbury and Newington could have successfully conceded the same advantage to any other couple in the list of entries.
SECOND DAY-Tuesday, May 1st," 1883. We have had more rain and the course is if anything worse than it was yesterday. In the Chu-ka-za Cup Dandolo made light of his 7 lbs penalty, and. proved himself a clinker at balf a mile. The favourites in the Derby had all to succumb to Torpedo, Mr. St. Andrew's smart little player getting home very cleverly. Oriole won the Ladies' Purse handsomely from a fair field. Mr. Paul's popular colours were to the fere in the Race Club Cup with the evergreen Tajmahal, although it was currently reported that this fine old pony was dead amiss. With na First Comet or Wild Dash in the field, Pre- judice was backed to win his fourth Shanghai Stakes, and to the delight of "The Judge," the game old champion pulled through hand somely, again proving the fallacy of private
We do not make these remarks trials. Piccadilly, a stable companion of the winner of the Griffins, accounted for the valu in any carping or invidious spirit, but simply to show the committee who managed the able Concordia Cup, and then Prejudice's handicap, that if they desire to improve the jockey had a turn with his grey Peculator,character of the play, and to render these con- a pony that will be remembered as starting a hot tests more interesting and exciting, it will be favorite for the Maiden Stakes last autumn in necessary to devote considerable time and at- tention to arranging the competitors in pairs the interests of Mr. Fungus.

The final heats of the lawn tennis handicap, which for the past two or three weeks has been occupying the attention of devoices of this popular pastime, were decided on the Cricket Ground yesterday afternoon in the presence of a large number of spectators, including a fair sprinkling of ladies. The players left in were Mr. G. S. Coxon and Lieut. Allen (The Buffs) on the one side, and Capt. Newington R.M.L.I., and Lieut. Bunbury (The Buffs) on the other, who had to play the best af five sets, six games to the set, on level terms.
