WEDNESDAY'S RACES.
Those who remembered Doncaster in its palmy days
must have been struck with the contrast between the
excitement which then prevailed on the St. Leger day—
almost from daybreak, and the quietude of the town this
morning. Until between 9 and 10 o'clock, the sound of
wheels was scarcely heard, and, as the day advanced,
the arrivals per coach were so few that one would almost
have imagined that it was one of the " off" days of the
meeting, instead of the "grand" day. The falling off,
however, in this respect is easily accounted for. Don-
caster now has railway communication with all the ma-
nufacturing districts, from which the mass of the visitors
come, and the Companies having afforded every possible
facility in the shape of special trains from Manchester,
Leeds, Liverpool, Sheffield, Wakefield, &c., the number
present did not exhibit so great a deficiency as might
have been expected from the moderate character of the
racing. The special train from London held out an op-
portunity, for the first time, of seeing the St. Leger run
for, and returning the same night, and as the directors,
with more consideration for the public than for the
shareholders, were content to take one fare for the
double journey, a considerable number—less, however,
than had been anticipated—availed themselves of it. It
reached Doncaster nearly an hour after time, owing to a
detention of half an hour at Retford, the engine and
tender having got off the line, in consequence of the man
at the point having turned it the wrong way; no mis-
chief was done, and the passengers arrived at their des-
tination in ample time for the races. Irrespective of
this, the only drawback was the early hour at which it
was necessary to start, an objection which will be obvi-
ated next year, by the completion of the Great Northern
main line from London to Peterborough. By one
o'clock all the " special" visitors were safely delivered,
and the crowd in the streets reminded us, faintly, how-
ever, of better times; the falling off, nevertheless, was
palpable, and it was still more conspicuous on the course.
The Grand Stand, although crowded to the roof, con-
ta ned few of the titled and fashionable personages,
whose patronage for so long a period made Doncaster
the most popular racing town in the kingdom. Time,
however, will not permit us to dwell on these matters;
suffice it, that there was a great numerical attendance,
and that the racing, with the St. Leger as its feature,
went off with tolerable spirit; the weather, unfortunately,
was unfavourable.
