EGHAM RACES.-TUNIDAY.

The Egbam meeting was only lately one of the most
Mirsecond-class meetings of the metropolitan circuit,
was favoured yesterday with brilliant weather and
large crowds of pleasure people. Professional racing men
Lad all enjoyment marred by the utter mismanagement
observable in all deportment& The races were tediously
delayed, the hoisting of the numbers was scandalously con-
ducted, and the weighing room was the scene of such con-
fusion as might only have been expected at places of sport
where the reward of the winning horses' was a saddle or a
bridle. Admiral Rosa did all in his power to mend matters
but could not turn the tide of disorder, which had made the
whole thing a mere shipwreck. Subjoined are details of the
running:

at the post, completely exhausting the patience of the spec-
tators, and, after many ineffectual efforts, a start was made,
amidst derisive cheers from the people on 'the stand. A;

Hen colt
appeared bin front, attended by Diana, East Sheen The
