HAMPTON RACES—TesurteD,l
bY called
The Hampton people, contrary to the
predictions of the
weather-wise, brought off their
so, seeing that the most important racing is invariably
the first day, it would be hard to determineon
cess as complete as it was unexpected. The
se with
a sue.
morning was threatening, but a shower or two between ten
and twelve o'clock failed to damp the courage of the
me
politan lieges, hence the railway company started well
'tre-
Oiled
trains every ten or fifteen minutes; the road
and
the river
were patronized to an extent that carried us back to the
"good old times" of the turf; and the gathering on the
Hurst, by the time fixed for the first race, was really " p ro-
digious ;" taking it numerically, we may venture to assert
that it has never been surpassed. To keep such a mob
under, tr to c:ear the course, required more than ordinary
exertion on the part of the police, and it is bare justice to
them to say, that they acquitted themselves with equal
tact, energy, and success ; we did not hear of a
single accident during the progress of the racing,
and although the collisions after its termination
were numerous, we believe there was nothing more
serious than broken wheels and panels. To expect a
punctual attention to the " order of running," as regarded
time, would have been simply absurd, and no one can have
been surprised that the amateurs, who should have been in
the saddle at thirty-five minutes past four, did not " per-
form" until after six. Taking the meeting as a whole, we
may congratulate the lessees in having given satisfaction to
the public, and reaped for themselves a most abundant har-
vest; the receipts at the stands, and for the admission of
carriages into the privileged enclosure, must have been enor-
mous. Tempted by the shortness of the drive from Clare-
mont, and the fineness of the weather, their Royal High-
nesses the Duke and Duchess de Nemours anti the Due
d'Aumale, attended by General Salerne, visited the course,
and remained during the greater part of the afternoon. The
Dukes accepted the invitation of the Hon. Captain Roue,
the only steward in attendance, and witnessed most of the
races from their stand. His Royal Highness the Duke of
Cambridge again honoured the races with his presence; we
also noticed the Marquis of Drogheda, Lords Frederick
Fitzroy, Easton, Ribblesdale, and Maidstone, Baron Vigier,
Count Batbyany, the Hon. Captain Forester, Hon. Captain
Rous, lion. Major Pitt, Major Martyr, Captains Bastard,
Bayley, Blair, Rogge, and De Horsey ; Messrs. Ramsbottom,
PaYne ram, J. M. Stanley, H. Fitzroy, Elwes, Evelyn,

the running to the distance, where Butterfly, who had passed
Hesse Homburg at the lower turn, went up, quitted her in a
