LEEDS RACE COURSE.

An important alteration in ilia Leeds Race Course, from the
Park Lodge Farm House, by way of the Fish Pond-side, and
between the two large elm trees, to the Grand Stand, is now
completed. It has been made for the express purpose of
giving to the jockeys a straight line of gallop of about a quar-
ter of a mile before they turn towards the Stand, and of afford-
ing to the company situate thereon, a side, instead of a head,
view of the horses when running the round course. This alte-
ration must afford a greater gratification to the spectators on
the Stand and Course, by distinguishing the horses when pass-
ing and repassing each other, particularly when coming to and
passing the whole length of the Stand. The present pulling-
up ground, from the -Park to the Pontefract Turnpike-road,
will be abolished, and the pulling-up line in future will
commence from a certain point past the winning-post, and
will form a curve to the top end of the Fish Pond, where it
will join the altered straight line on the Fish Pond side.—

On Monday Mr. Collard's Harriers met near the Old Psi
and had an excellent run. In the course of the day they killed
a leash of hares.—ln leaping a hedge, with a ditch beyond, the
horse of Lieut. Robbins, of the I 7th Lancers, fell and threw
that Gentleman a severe fall, which materially injured his arm.
He was conveyed to a neighbouring farm-house, where he re-
ceived immediate attention, and is not likely to experience any
very ill effects. Another horse fell in attempting the same
leap, but • the rider escaped unhurt.—The bounds belonging
to the Officers of the Lancers were out yesterday, in the
neighbourhood of Pethain, and had a good run for an hour
and-a halt.—( Kent .Herald.)
