We cannot help rejoicing al the success OF IN.
gallant Southern nag, Peytona, over the laurel
covered Northern mare, Fashion, hitherto censl
dered invincible This great race has excited
more interest than any that has taken place IL
this country. The South has now fully recovered
the elorv she lost in the race between Eclipse and
Henry, and ON many other occasiops: Fhai
makes the triumph so much the more brilliant, is
the fact, that the "knowing ones" have been SC
terribly taken in. The,result of the contest on
Tuesday, forcibly reminds US ofour feelings o
delight at the issue OF the great Presdentla race
in November :" Who is James X. PelkF' asked
the yauntng fricRds Of the "pepalaf favorite and
invincibIe" Harry Clay. aWho is Peytona q
resounded from the lips Of the overcon6dent back
ers, Of Fashion, who had never .bumbied heI
proud head The astounding result in each case
has prodrccd similar effect upon the public
mind Peytona now ranks first of her race, and
she will be the /" fashion" of the day. ,ra,,


The following will give; all desirable insorma
tion to readers, who are perhaps as anxious to
hear the news as we were: .Is5a.

The GREAT MATCH RAcR-FAsHro1 HEATRN.


The great contest between Fashion aud Pey
4ona has created an unprecedented excitemeat, and
at least one hundred thousand people have assem-
bLed on the ground, to witness the performaace.


The number of sporting men from the Sbnth is 10
credible, and the greatest animation prevails among
the hackers of each horse betting freely In addition
to,the purse of 800 900, at least De hundred thou
sand dollars depend the result of this contest.


The weatheris all that could be desired, the
thunder shower Of last evening having laid dust
and cooled the atmosphere.


The sun is partially concealed by light haze
and refreshing N. E.. bretze passes over the
course. -.1...... -..J ~. -


The horses are in excellent condition. !.


Fashion is the favorlte with rhe North Of course
and some OF her hackers, to show their confidence
offered 2 to on thesresuIt, which was freely ta-
ken by the hackers of PeYtona. -


Result of The First He0t-Peytona came in
ahead, time minutes 39& seconds. .es


After the first heat the betting was to l. 3 to 2,
and 10 TO on Peytona which was freely taken:


Result ofIhe Second Heof-Peytona came in a.

From the New York Tribune.


The excitement was great when the horses ap-
peared al the tap of the drHm and betting Aecame
still more favorable TO the Southern horse. when
she was stripped. The North had been 7eacking
Fashion heavily, but there was now disposition TO
hedge, and odds could be had on Peytoua. 5; Both
horses appeared to be perfectly right. although
Peytona had rather the most lively and gamelv
look. Both horses have been described in several of
the city papers, aud we think it useless to repeat
the description.


The horses got off we'll together at the rst start





well as the lead, and won the first heat by three
lengths, amid the shouts of the excited crowd.
The betting was now 100 10 so, aud even occa-
sionally larger odds, the Southern horse, and
pw takers. 5


When the horses came up for the second heat,
hey did not appear to have cooled off WELL Fashion
'eing apparently the most distressed. After one
alse start they went off at a sashing pace, Fash
on getting the inside. During The first three miles
he horses ran together with scarcely perceptible

ace became intense. When they passed the Judges
tand the fouih mile Pey tona WAS scarcely the
'readth Of an ear behind. Both jockeys were
living spurs and crowdng the horses to ihrf utmost
peed. On the last quarter Peytona made brush |
nd it was evident that her immense stride was
oing the business. Coming down the straight turn |
o the judges stand, she gained slightly at every
ump, and came in Fashion under whip and spur
rinning the heat and race by half 3 length. The |
hout that rent the welkIn was the signal for the |
'anSfer Of at least an hundred thousand dollars

'orth TO the pockets of South. - - go -


The time. il will be sesn was not very good I

Peytona has now won for her owners 500 500
purses in sig years, never having been beaten.
he has probably won much more for them in side

rec fields, she may be considered the paramount =

This has been one Of the most exciting races the
otth has ever known, and as Fashion was freely
cked, until within a few days bv our sporting
relies, we suppose Park Row and Vesey street are
'arly cleaned out. .-n+
