ASCOT HEATH RACES.
FRIDAY.

The general results of the meeting, taken up to the
%se yesterday afternoon, have entirely borne out the
'Pinion we hazarded at its commencement. The weather
Wks fine to the end, and although in two or three in-
littinces the fields were small, and the betting on a less
Zztensive scale than formerly, we question if better sport
ttlts ever been before witnessed. The attendance each
iY was much larger than for some years past, and the
eipts at the Grand Stand showed an increase
tt" 1646 to the extent of 5001. The manage-
cff the Noble Master of the Buck-hounds was
CI!
ti;.courteous, and effective—not a complaint reached
; nig subordinates are equally entitled to notice for
pert ery satisfactory manner in which these duties were
tift„,rcled. We have the pleasure to add, as an addi-
R;'-'4,1 proof of the success of the meeting, and of the
that'acation it has afforded to the supporters of the turf,
8-,t there are already the unprecedented number of 218
..,11.:54
ecribers to the Ascot Stakes for 1848, and that the
r stakes are progressing most satisfactorily. The
thunnig Yesterday commenced half an hour earlier than
‘4 "', and being confined to five events, was got over at
ttaer,4ll37 hour. Good fields came to the post for the
l'he'''icap races, and speculation was tolerably animated.
attendance was confined to the sporting classes and
bo7vy fashionables who have been staying in the neigh-
s urhood. The races came off as follows :
