oa the Monday ; the Coffee-room Stakes, vales 1501., as
the Tuesday ; two sweepstakes, of the respective values of
1501. and IZI., and a 50/. plate, on the Wednesday ; a
handicap sweepstakes, value 1101., on the Thursday ; and a
sweepstakes, value 751., on the Friday • making the
sum total dl ord Stanford's winniup in stakes during the
five days 4,0601. The most succissful jockeys during the
week were A. Edwards, who won seven races, including
the Two Thousand, and G. Fordham who scored three
wise, including the One Thousand. The settling ham bees
of a satisfactory nature. Several heavy losers, who took
"liberties" with I)iopbantua end placed too great a re-
liance on the abider rumours which were circulated about
the hone, are reported, but all outstanding accounts are
likely to be promptly collected.
Aftm. ea busy a week it would be unjust to the officials
not to acknowledge the regularity with which the business
was conducted. Mr. Manning was, as usual, in constant
attendance in early morning and late at night in discharging
his duties at the Jockey Club rooms. Mr. Clark, the judge,
was cool and collected, and Mr. 51•Ce..ege seemed to have
established quite a friendly understanding between
himself and the jockeys, the recent cues of " sus-
pension" having doubtless contributed to so desirable
a result. The weather was delightfully fine until
Friday, when dark lowering clouds threatened rain,
and a boisterous wind raised clouds of dust. Whilst
the visitors were ea the heath no wet fell, but they
reached the town ins drenching shower. The meeting, as
we have already stated, was brought to a moat satisfactory
conclusion, and it was agreed as all 'ides that never, during
a " First Spring," did Newmarket present so gay and
thronged an appointees • and the triumphs of Diophantus
and Nemesia were au Tu'enday and Thursday evenings cele-
brated by merry peals of bells, Special trains, most acesen-
roodatragly provided by the Eastern Counties Railway
Company, conveyed the Lewd= and Manchester divisions to
their respective destiontime is excellent time. The ar-
rangement+, both at the Bishops/ate and Newmarket sta-
tions, were most efficiently earned out, Mr. Livens, the
station-master at Newmarket, getting the crowds of pee-
