Coming into tho back stretch, Immer shot out and soon left a fpap of three lengths between her and the rest of tho field. At the sii furlong post Maniaroa set out after, her, closely attended by His Eminence. Overhauling the mare opposite the five furlong mark, Maniaroa raced with her for a distance, and in the meantime the field had closed up considerably. Tangihou and Haumakaka were lying handy, and Binaldo was behind them, rounding the bend, into the straight. Immer and Maniaroa made an : effort in tho last stage of tho journey, but the former gradually fell away. Well, into the straight Tangihou came on tho outside with a great rush and appeared to have the victory well within his reach fifty yards from the post, but at this point Kinaldocame with .a splendid sprint, and gradually wearing down the gelding, won by half a length after a ding-dong finish.
