SPORTING INTELLIGENCE-

EPSOM RACES.—TUESDAY.
Baron DE TESSIER. and Sir G. BEAT oco rE, Stewards.
That amusements of every kind s: ould be affected by the
electioneering movements artsmg out of the recent debates, it
was reasonable to expect, and it is tor small roof of the in-
trinsic attractions of Epsom Races, that the difference betolF.
the attendance yesterday, and on occasions when the pogo.:
cat thermometer has been at "temperate," was so slight as almost
to escape notice. The public, in fact, drawing their infeleoce,
from the satisfactory manner in which the majority of the pleas
hadfilled, and the immense number of horses congregated is
the neighbourhood, calculated upon a sufficiency of sport
repay the trouble of a visit to the Downs. 'I hey ware ne,
disappointed, the provision for their amusement, minus as
sv,.s of the " Woodeote" Stakes, having exhibited the ens"
tornary average of racing. Their enjoyment of it was
hanced by the fineness of the weather and the judicious at'
raugements made for the maintenance of order, arrangement:
with which they have been familiarized under the pregen
energetic stewardship. The fitting up" of the course Ras
on much the same plan as last year, the only alteration tha
struck us was the addition of a high stand to the row in tr°l;t
of the winning I,ast, and the conversion of the old Prince*
Stand into a Pace station, thus avoiding the necessity of et
ve)itro offenders to the old place of confinement under '''""
Gland Stand.
The duties of Judge, Clerk of the Course, aid Starter, Well
severally performer! by Messrs. Clark, Farrell,
