SOUTHAMPTON, AUGUST 16.

Our Races commenced on Thursday. They were
attended by much fashion and beauty ; amongst
whom the Marquis of Lansdown appeared, in a'
landau drawn by four Sheda•.id ponies, who looked
extremely well in harness, and drew the attention
of the Public as such as the Races. The beautiful
daughters of the Marchioness appeared on the
ground in a superb coach-and-four. The servants
had mast elegant uew liveries, trimmed with silver,
and Italian shoulder knots. The first plate of 501.
value was won by Mr. Middleton's horse Desatfd,
at two heats, being uncommon good running. The
cup, of 30 guineas, was won by Proonee, the pro-
perty of Sir H. Lippincott. Friday was again a
scene of beauty and fashion, the Course being
crowded. Five horses started for the plate, which
was won by Lord Foley's Little Peggy, which won
the 2d and 3d heats : there never was better run-
ning. The company retired exceedingly well satis-
fied with their amusement.
