GOODWOOD RACES-WEDNESDAY.

As Though to recompense the racing world for the dis-
appentment caused by the cheerless state of the weather
on Ttesday, this morning opened all smiles and sun-
shine, and tempted many a Londoner to taste the fresh
air upon the Sussex Hills. The special and ordinary
trains rom London-bridge conveyed during the morning
troops if racing amateurs to Chichester and Drayton-
road Station, from whence to the course - a distance of
five mies—visitors usually proceed by public or private
vehicles. Considerable delay and inconvenience was,
howev3r, occasioned in London by the unexpected strike
of theca)) owners, who took this opportunity to show
their cissatisfaction at the recent Hackney Carriage Act,
by not permitting a single cab to appear in the streets,
so that hundreds of persons who had calculated upon
reading,- this station by cab in time for the departure of
a certain train were unable to procure a vehicle at any

price.
The Goodwood Stakes, to which, next to the Good-
wood Cup, the greatest interest atraches, was the most
importtnt of the day. A large amount of money had
been invested on it, and, contrary to expectation, Adine,
an outsider, cut down the favourites, and bore away the
prize, b the great delight of the fielders, who thereby
netted t considerable stake.
The attendance on the course and on the grand stand
and enclosures was very numerous, and the extreme
fineness of the day enabled the ladies—of whom there
was a brilliant assemblage—to display their elegant
summer costumes in the reserved portion of the enclo-
sure at the extremity of the grand stand.
The fallowing are the names of the distinguished guests
who have accepted invitation to Goodwood House during

Gossamer were the first to show in advance, but they
had scarcely proceeded a hundred yards when Lambton
rushed to the front, and in going out of the straight
he increased Ms lead several lengths, Joe Miller,
Vindex, Trifle, Adine, Hobbyhorse, and Haricot being
the nearest portion of the ruck. On rounding the
further turn, near the clump, Lambton began to
drop off, and by the end of the next hundred yards
Joe Miller had passed him, followed by Adine, Trifle,
Hobbyhorse, Antigone, and Haricot. As they ap-
proached the turn into the Hobbyhorse appeared
to be gaining ground, but he gradually fell back in de-
scending the hill, and when just below the distance Joe
Miller's change was quite extinguished. The race was
now evidentl? left to Trifle, Adine, Antigone, and Hari-
cot. At the Stand Adine took possession of the lead,
