'THURSDAY, AUG. 5.
At one o'clock her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent
and the Princess Feodore, accompanied by the Earl and Coun-
tess of Darnley and the Ladies 'High, arrived on the ground,
escorted by Sir M. Moorsoni, the Port Admiral, Sir A.
Christie, the Commander of the Garrison, and a detachment
of the 22d Light Dragoons and 7th Fusileers. They took
their station in an elegant Stand erected for the occasion, and
remained on the Course till the first heat of the last race was de-
cided. We also observed Lord Clifton, Captains Fitzclarence
and Moreton, and many other Military Officers. The beauty
of the weather, the admirable condition of the ground, and the
promise of good sport, attracted an amazing assemblage of
beauty and fashion, and the ground was literally covered with
splendid equipages. We did not hear of any accident to inter-
rupt the pleasures of the day, of which we subjoin a statement.
A Plate, or Fifty Guineas, given by James Best, Esq. for horses
of all ages ; three years olds, 7kt. ; four, Bst. ; five, fist. 111 b.

7 to 1 against Peggy, 8 to one 1 against Regulus, B to 1 against

Mr. Alfred's ch. c. by Soothsayer, 3 yrs old . 4dr
First heat Varrior went away, and kept the lead for a mile
and a half, when Fortune-teller crept in front and was not pass-
ed though carrying extra weights, winning cleverly by two
lengths-6 to 4 against Fortune-teller, 3to 1 against Scud, 3
to 1 against Soothsayer, and 5 to 1 against Warrior.
Second lost Warrior again took the lead and kept it a mile
and three-quarters, when Scud slipped by them all with For-
tune-teller at his hattnees and won by a head—even on Fortune-
teller against the field.
Third heat Fortune-teller took the lead, and notwithstanding
the strenuous exertions of the other two, won the prettiest race
we have seen some time. Wetherell rode Send, Tent Warrior,
and the winner was admirably jockeyed by M'Donald, who pro-
mises to be one of the first of public jockeys-6 to 4 the winner
against Scud.
