ASCOT HEATH RACES•

WEDNESDAY.
Wednesday has always been a more " taking " daY
with sporting men than se•th the public, inusmuchls
there is generally an ample sulficisncy of racing for
amusement and speculation, and no crowd to prevent a
" quiet and easy" enjoyment of P; nor was there anti
thing on this occasion to distinguish the " off" daYe °
bygone meetings. The Est teemed with sport, and pros
'nisei good fields for all the leading events ; the wee-
ther was fine and not to., sultry, and the company we
hibited a most respectable amount of fashion, with s
sd
full proportion of the notables of the turf, numelii

which proved quite a one-sided affair. Cossack thee
cantered user the Swinley ; next to it, in the
orders
of running, came the Fern 11111 Stakes, which Vill
won, after a fine race, by Christopher, once a
strongly fancied outsider for the late Derby. lnu
Royal Hunt Cup came next, and for this a field a
less than twenty•five showed at the post ; the betting
it was comparatively brisk, and the race a proof of f .
cellent handicapping, Tragical, an extreme outsideby
