and Laycock. Our boxers are now, leaving in shoals for Americ; and England and there is nothing to tempt mich of the candle of Mace and Burke, Cannon and Whatler to come here. Public enthusiasm over these minor departments of sport hab undoubtedly of late greatly dim inished and their very existence,is threatened.
Charles Lever, in describing a continental race-meeting, opined that a wealthy class like the English aristocracy was necessary to the existence of the turf, Now it is evident that both in England and Australia the principal factor in promoting the popularity of racing has been a certains cists of owners, wealthy enough to be independent of the bettingeing. The presence in the field of a Falmouth, Weltminster, White, or Wallace is sufficient to despay the best-laid schemes of leviathane and cash-fielders, and to encourage the vast arthy of backris on whom racing really depends. A powerful, straightforward stable is of itself enough to preserve the public from the machinations
of the ring. Let auch cease to exist let racehorses be exclusively controlled by those, who are wholly or partially dependent on the turf for a livelibond and the end is near. The "sport of kings" may for a time be sport only for the, kings of the ring," but its doom its sealed. Com- menting on the recent Chetwynd-Durham scandal Bailey Magazine,arecognised authgrity, says:--- "Active participation in racing is pre-eminently an amusement for persons whose locoite is more than sufficient for their wants, and who are suffi- ciently high-minded to discard altogether the least, thoughts of gain, and sufficiently good sportsmen to take with equanimity the reverses of fortune, Directly rating becomes a business, men enter into a contest, from which, in all likelihood, but few emerge unimpaired,"
Without going bad the thesof Jodu Tait" it is easy to see that, as the great owners drop off, their places are not being filled. Who has stepped into the shoes of Messrs. De Mest, Pearson, Wilson and Robinson? Do the Coopers, the Clarkes, and the Longs support the Australian turf as they did four years ago! Many other such instances can be quoted, but where is the prominent owner who "bas of late sprung up? The solitary exception is Mr. Donald Wallace, but it is doubtful whether he shall much longer devote so much attention to the Australian turf. Augur" recently paid his periodical visit to the Hon. James White's stable, and while he noticed that the young animals w re as good as ever, it struck him that the "flower of the
flock" were bred to English time, and that the most promising colts now at Kirkbam are not intended for the Australian turf. It is thus made evident that our leading owner and most powerful and influential sportsmen, should he thoroughly recover, as all sincerely hope he may, from his his present terrible illness, will, for some time at least, devote his attention to English racing. Already his example has been followed by the Mesars. Cooper, and rumour hath it that at no distant date the owner of Carbin and Mentor may sport his colours at the other end of the world. In sporting, as in everything else, there is a tide of fashion, and just as the Champs Elysées and Hyde Park have, for the time, dis- placed Broadway as the show-ground of American plutocracy, so Newmarket or Epsom may become the Mecca of our leading racing-men. Then,
bould our wealthy owners once rub shoulders with rovalty, it will be difficult to tear them away from those associations so dear to the "representative Australian." With the withdrawal of these great owners the Australian turf will have to depend on betting men and The owners and trainer who live by the game finding combination, more profitable than petition, generally federate for the purpose of the public, who may cease to support Cing when they discover the impostilog, Breeding Tacehorses-in risky business, is ich the prizes are few and the blanks many, the thorough-breds" foaled, but a small oportion ever stand the ordeal of training, and ly few of these pay for their oats, and it is fident that large capital is required to produce Igh class racers. The bookmaker who likes a uick "turnover " is not the man to sink fabulous ums for years in any enterprise. If thorough breds are to be produced at all without the
ausistance of large private stables, it must be by
means of stud companies such as those of New Zealand, And if the public cease to support racing such speculations. will soon fail to be profitable.
4 Augur! has recently pointed out, in the columns of the Australasian, that we have not a tithe of the amateur sideïs of a dozen years ago. (and the leading ringmien are now leaving dur shores for Ergland, just as rats desert a sinking ship.

* It may be beneficial to inquire what effect #port ¿bas on national character and physique. Taking the most important department ärsi, it is evident that the extinction of the turf, if it should produce any important result at "all must be for good. Racing, as everyone knows `by this timp, does not improve the breed of horses, and de- teflorates the human race, for it is carried on simply to appease the inherent gambling mania I which evinces Itself in various forms from chape! bazaars and "heading 'em" to stock transactions. Keen observers aver that the addiction of the Australians to field sports preserves them from physical deterioration. Cricket, football, rowing,
Aye, and lawn-tennis, can be carried on witboat the gambling which at present mars many Australian sports. In America, athletics are promoted by the big clubs for the general good rather than to enrich speculative individuals. In Germany the State supervises physical education witif results that made themselves felt at Badowa and Sedan. To free Australian sport from the evil influences now surrounding it is a task Bworthy of a statesman.—Sydney Balletti,
