WELLINGTON SU*MMER MEETING. (BY telegraph—own correspondent). Wellington, Last Night. It was fine this morning and the track at the Hutt was in splendid going order. Work commenced ot four o'clock, wheu St. Paul cantered twice round, moving very freely. Goldleaf ran round twice at a good pacr, but showed tiring at the finish. Haria galloped ljf miles with a light weiitht np, accompanied by Spinner for the first six furlongs. He was brought home by Hon. George, who beat him at the finish. The gallop was a good one and Ham must have an outside chance in the Cup, Uniform, looking muscular and well, covered a couple of rounds at half pace. Conqueror, who also appeared very well, was treated to cantering exercise. Leila ran once round, the Castor filly Wish taking her along for the first six furlongs and Ruby Twist biioging her home. The gallop was a fair one, and the mare is improving every gallop. Serviceable work was a'so performed by Djiu Djin, Firefly, The Guardsmen, Lady Agnes, Choroid, Starshot, OH Chance, Marino, Quiltiri, and Sing Song.
