HIGH COMMISSIONER OUT
High Commissioner is reported from the north as now npt making .the trip south to the Grand Ndtional'lSleeting. The two horses he was" to have . travelled with. I'rinee of Orange and Luee'ss, passed through Wellington oil Tuesday, but he was not with them. The northern teport states that the cuts which High Commissioner received during the running ,of the Great Northern Steeplechase lia^e healed,, and tho_gelding is in first-class order, but his connections consider it inadvisable to.run the risk ot the wounds reopening,, which would occur, if he hit one :o£ the solid Jiictnrton fences. This, and the. fact that the Grand National winds up'the jumping season, has influenced his party in coming to the decision-not to i'make the. trip.
