George Palmer has beaten Goldsmith Maid, and the latter has de- feated Palmer, and this match was made to decide the question of superiority between them. Every race previously this season has been for purses where other horses were engaged with them, aud their respective meriis could not be accurately ase certained. In their races at Mystic Park and Narra- ganset George Palmer's performances were not ag good as those of the mate, and although ne exhi- bited as much speed at times, his staying qualities were notas great, She alwaya hada better place than Palmer at the finish of the race.
