SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
ASCOT-HEATH RACES—Tsunsmay.
The presence of the Queen at any great public festi-
val;' whether racing or otherwise, has so invariably been
favoured with fine weather, that her Majesty's lieges in
the metropolis .‘ laid the flattering. unction to their
souls" that the " great day,"
in spite of all appear-
ances to the contrary, would not be an exception. Their
hopes were sorely disappointed. The rain continued to
pour steadily down during the night, and the morning
came in hopelessly wet and gloomy. The consequences
were not less decisive than they were under sinaitar cir-
cnmstances on the Derby day. There was no fighting
or scrambling for seats at the railway stations, and not
above half the number of trains left Waterloo-bridge
and Paddington that have usually been started on simi-
lar occasions. The road was comparatively deserted, and
the course, which was in a position that put trials of
speed entirely out of
the question, and led to results
that future running will prove to have been altogether at
variance with the real merits of the horses engaged,
presented an extraordinary contrast to the customary
splendour of a " Cup day."
The weather, indeed, was so bad, that it was at one
time doubtful if her Majesty would honour the course
with her presence. The heath was nevertheless dotted
with a fair proportion of carriages, and the general at-
tendance was greater than might have been expected.
The Grand Stand was tolerably attended, and a few ad-
venturous ladies braved the showers, attired in water-
proof cloaks from head to foot, a style of costume which
excited no little observation.
The arrival of the Duke of Montrose, the Lord
Steward of the Household, heralded the approach of the
royal party from the Castle, shortly after one o'clock.
The cortege consisted of eight carriages, all of them
closed, the general effect of the procession being thereby
much lessened. On the Queen's arrival opposite the
stand, the hearty cheers of the crowd expressed their
gratification that her Majesty should have sacri-
ficed personal comfort rather than disappoint the
thousands who bad assembled to greet her.
Her Majesty was accompanied on this occasion by
his Royal Highness Prince Albert, her Royal
Highness the Duchess of Cambridge and the Princess
Mary, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, the
Prince of Wales, and the Princess Royal, the Duke of
Wellington, the Duke and Duchess of Athol, the Duke
and Duchess of Buccleuch, the Duke and Duchess of
Argyl), the Duke of Newcastle, the Marquis and Mar-
chioness of Exeter, the Marquis and Marchioness of
Normanby, the Marquis and Marchioness of Abercorn
and Lady Harriet Hamilton, the Marquis and Mar-
chioness of Worcester, the Earl and Countess of
Malmesbury, Lord John Manners, Lord and Lady
James Murray, and several other members of the
aristocracy.
Immediately after the appearance of the Queen at the
window of the royal stand the races commenced, and
proceeded in an incessant rain up to the Emperor's
Plate. It then subsided, and the great event came off
in comparatively clear weather. Our report will show
that it was one of the hollowest things ever seen, and
that the horses belonging to the aristocracy were
"nowhere." On the conclusion of the race for the
New Stakes her Majesty and her illustrious Consort,
