SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

BRIGHTON RACES—THURSDAY.
The last day of the Brighton reunion was by far the
most enjoyable of the three, for the weather, though
threatening- at times, kept wonderfully fine. The strong
wind, however, proved troublesome to the tentkeepers,who
had enough to do to keep their establishments together.
The attendance was, as on the previous days, large, and
the Stand was extensively patronised, especially by the
ladies, who to-day assembled in strong force. The impro-
vised stands had also their share of patrons, while the
carriages which lined the course opposite the enclosure
were well filled. The racing was under the auspices of the
Brighton Club. The fields were uniformly small, and the
various even:s c.lll for no special comment. Every feature is
presented in the appended return. Considerable betting
took place on the St. Leger and the Lewes Handicap, at
the quotations given below.
