In anything but pleasant weather, which had takeu
an wafavourable change during the night, end all the
morning rain fell continuously. It, however, held up
during the raring, but the threate-ing s ate of the
weather no doubt prevented many w.uld.he limiters
from being present. The racing also was not of that.

ea Salisbury is the centre of a large hunting
country, and it was confidently thou.:lit that
the steeplechases would be very succeasinl.
the postponement of the meeting no doubt madded
against it. In the face of Friday'e had sport it was
thought that flatuday's sports would be far more
auceessful, as it really deserved to be. A pony matei
was added to the card, as well as another hurtle
race. Detail.:-

SECOND DAY.--B.troanar.
The weather having improved conaiderably foe the
hotter Plow the previous day, a greater number of
visitor' were attracted to the course this afternoon, and
the sport, coo, was of • bitter description, although
the mow suffered from a la is of runners, which, no
doubt, would have been different hoot the meeting
taken place when originally fixed. The racing was
fairly op the average, and it may be mentioned that
Stonehenge won his rate in smart form, and be ought
to win some good racer, as he is a sure fencer, and can
stay. The pony ran, perhaps, caused the most excite-
ment, and in Flirt Mr. Hart pnesewes a rare good
pony. The meeting cantiot be onnsidere I a succewful
one, and taking all things into c in-ideration this is
not to be wondered at, es the postponement and the
stormy weather on Friday was enough to mar any
meeties. But we trust that the neat one, which is to
take lobble in spring, will be as maccawful ait i dresrver
to be, and that Me. Harvey. the clerk of the toorae,
will be we I eupported. Details :-
