The racing to-day commenced at twelve o'clock, and
ended at two. The match; with a nice adjustment of
weights--even at " 41b"—and the Two-year-old Sweep-
stakes, for which only fillies were left in to contend,
were the principal features of interest; in each, however,
the favourite made the running throughout and won
easily. The winning numbers to-day presented a re-
markable coincidence—four out of the five being number
," 1" on the card.

The attendance of company was very scanty. In the
course of the morning some light showers fell. with a
refreshing effect. The afternoon, though somewhat
cloudy, was, on the whole, favourable.
The journey to town by special train which left New-
market at three, was very satisfactorily performed iu
two hours and ahalt.
