the Cesarewitch accounts, but the general settling will
take place on Monday next, at Tatteriall's. Present ap-
pearances Are of a favourable character.

weather was cloudy and very cold, and the attendance
of company, although above an " off day's " average,
presented a marked contrast to the immense gathering
o n the Cesarewitch day.
