THE OAKS DAY.

A ladies' day in which there were no ladies, a hill with-
out life and colour, a paddock almost abandoned, even by
the most zealous of country gentlemen, and a general
deluge of mud—such was the evil state of the Oaks on.
Thursday afternoon. How it rained all night, those poor
houseless wretches who camp out on the Downs on the
Derby week best know ; how it poured in the morning,
cab-drivers, who made golden harvest of "noble sports-
men," best appreciated. The Downs were dreary indeed ;
the tents were soaked, and so were the viands they
covered. It was cold, too ; fires were welcomed in the
Grand Stand and weighing department ; and comparisons
were made with Daniel O'Rourke's year, and rather in
its favour. The bell for the first is ce brought a slight
cessation of rain with it, but never di I Course look more
miserable, as the crowd picked their way through infinite
litter and slush. Several policemen left for town before
it was run, as there was absolutely nothing for them to do,
and the poor outcasts who wander round and under the
carriages, seeking for any offal in the shape of half-picked
bones to gnaw, bad no opportunities to improve. It was
no day for six and thirty miles on the top of a drag.
Nigger minstrels and gips:es seemed to have quitted the
spot in disgust, and you scarcely heard a sound as you
threaded the tented lines, near the betting lists, save that
of a revival hymn in the booth of the colporteurs.
