ABVOCATB. 1 Great Match Race. Yesterday, according tOv-appointment, the great match race took place, on the UnioiftJourse, Long Island, and was won, after a close contest, by ECLIPSE. The Southern bOrse entered against him is called .HENRY, and is owned, wc understand in Virginia,, and is a colt of most surprising swiftness. Henry took the first heat by a half lengthi-when the rider of Eclipse was changed, and Purdy, whose skill, and address are so well known, was substituted, ami the other two heats were ,won, the bottom of Eclipse proving superior to that of his anta- gonist. . ine ume occupiea was nearly as follows : '- ' ; "' -'' 1st heat' run'in 7 minutes 38 second. .

Upwards of 50,000 . people .must have beep on the course," andthousand carriages and horseVof various descriptions ithe road was literally lined . with thcra;: Thus ends this Jof the second heat, Henrv took the lead, but i in ific niii ti 4v;iqisic snut y, Hint imivij cauic in several lengths1 ahead, amidst tire shoiits land cheers of an immense concourse of spec tators. K The southern rider then became a little disheartened, and another .was substi tuted. The horses both went off for the hist time in fine style Eclipse had the-advantage ih'Starting' of about t wo lengths, which Hhe maintained for the two first miles. In the third mile, Henry came up within iab'eut a lengthy but could gain no more, and Eclipse finally came out about a length and a half a head thus winning $40,000, besides bets in this citv, as it is. conjectured, to the amount of $150,000 more arid probably as much more in different, parts of the Union. , j It is supposed by many that Eclipse would not have lost the first heat had he been mounted by Purdy; but the unprecedented speed with which it was rub, shows that nei ther horse is wanting io fleetness, and the fact that Henry maintained a sharp contest throughout and gained dui-ing the whole of the last round, also shows, that, for a four1 years old, he is not deficient in bottom. , Al though beaten, he is nevertheless, a noble horse and-one of which Virginia may well be proud. Of his age he is piobably the finest horse in tlie world, v " !., ' THIRD DAYS RACE.
