THE SON, WNIJON, THURSOA V EVENING, MAY 17, 1866.

THE DERBY DAY.

"He who has not seen a Derby-day has not seen
England." So our foreign visitors have said and
written; and yesterday some 200,000 people went
to see the great race run and to exhibit thisphase of
English life, less, no doubt, for the edification of in-
telligent foreigners than for their own amusement.
Every year one hears murmurs from old-time
people who complain that the rail has overcrowded
the course, taken off the finest equipages from the
road, and robbed the Derby-day of half its pictu-
resqueness. But every year the railways seem to
bring more branches and more feeders to bear upon
Epsom Downs and swell the throng of sightseers
there.

Upon this great metropolitan holiday the
greatest happiness of the greatest number should
certainly be the object aimed at and hoped for ; and

yesterday our railway system, viewed from the Derby
stand-point, seemed really beneficent. The opening
of new routes or new links of communication left no
excuse to those who wished to study horses or men
at Epsom. If you wanted to reach the Downs
quietly, and were not afraid of a five-mile walk,
the South-Eastern Company invited you to go by
the Betchworth route from London-bridge and
Charing-cross. If you had no time to lose in walk-
ing, and wanted to combine pleasure with despatch,
the Brighton Company would convey you from Lon-
don-bridge or Victoria and land you on the course.
The South-Western Railway was the via media, and
happily, also, as far as we heard, the via tuta. This
company volunteered to take you from Waterloo to
Epsom town, whence, as all the world knows, the
walk to the course is more or less easy, according to
age and wind. Then the new metropolitan lines
brought their complements of passengers from each
suburban station, and, interlacing the great trunk
railways, seemed to bring all England into direct com-
munication with Epsom. How the traffic could be
worked with safety, either way, was one of those ques-
tions which, when once in motion, you ha r ily liked to
think about. Now-a-days, even setting Derby-
days aside, the full tide of life is not at Charing-
cross, but Clapham Junction.
" We get down by rail without dust ; but when I
was young I must confess I liked the fun of the
road." This was the sentiment of a cheery old
gentleman who had just gained, not without struggle
and loss of breath, a seat in one of the fast rains on
no matter what line. But, railways notwithstand-
ing, have the fun of the road, or the glory of the road
departed? In the glimpses we caught of it, the
horsemen and the four-horse drags certainly seemed
to be less numerous than formerly. But the omni-
buses, the coaches, andthe vans, the well and the ill
appointed barouches, the broughams, the chaises,
the carts, and the nondescript vehicles which are
kept in reserve for use on Derby-days only,—these
seemed to be in as great force as ever. Then the
road is favoured by the fair. Painful experience
shows that gay dresses and wide skirts are not im-
proved in the inevitable crush at railway stations.
So the ladies drive, or rather are driven. And one
of the pleasantest sights of the day, though not the
most picturesque, is the humble vehicle packed close
with the owner's belongings ; women with smiling
well satisfied faces, who, as well as husband or
brother, have earned a right to enjoy themselves,
and are doing so thoroughly, in their own way.
The costermonger, whose holidays are few, drives
down with his womankind by his side, or behind, as
proudly as though he owned the best equipage of
the day ; and it is something on such a festival to
see that he does not forget those who have a claim
upon him, and that he finds a pleasure in increasing
theirs. Yet to those who went by road yesterday one
thing seemed wanting. The suburban turnpikes
were there no longer. At Kennington, where stop-
pages used to be so frequent,there was a clear way; but
it was not quite clear that the abolition of the
pike and the tell was compensation for lost oppor-
tunities of " chaffing" the much-enduring pikemen,
and of exchanging sallies with the bystanders. It
may be as well to mention here that last night there
was a revival of the stupid practices of flour-throw-
ing—not by people who had been at the race, but
by those who had assembled near Clapham-common
to witness the return home. Several ]allies who
were attacked in this cowardly way looked as
though they had been in a snow storm. In one in-
stance the assailants caught a Tartar, for the gen-
tleman who received a flour-ball in his face, and
was for the time almost blinded by it, jumped out
of his carriage and, amid general cheering, gave
the men who had thrown this missile a horsewhip-
ping which they are not likely soon to forget. The
police should be instructed to put a stop to practical
jokes of this sort, which are sure to reuse bad blood
and to end in disturbance. Apart from these few
unpleasant episodes of the return, which are in no
way chargeable upon the holiday folk, there was a
prevalent joyousness and good humour among the
vast multitude on the journey down and home as
well as during the races—a general regard for de-
cency and order which could not fail to strike the
least observant. If a handful of policemen cleared
the course easily, and prevented all confusion, it
could only be because the mass of those assembled
on the Downs belonged to a law-abiding and order-
loving people, who knew how to amuse themselves
without violence or coarseness.

On the Derby Day the inveterate racing or betting
men are a small minority at Epsom. Probably 19
out of 20 people on the Course know very little
about the horses, and care very little which of them
wins. But in " the ring" the betting-man has his
little world, and there is supreme. The first race is
run, nobody paying much attention to it. But
when, very soon afterwards, the bell rings for the
great event, the air becomes vocal with offers to lay
against everything in the race, to lay against parti-
cular horses in the race, to lay on the field, to ac-
commodate you in any conceivable way with the
odds then current. Men with queer hats and
neckerchiefs of glaring colours bellow out invita-
tions of this kind till they nearly deafen you. Some
have their names and addresses printed in gold
letters upon their hatbands as a guarantee of sub-
stance and good faith. Others, perhaps better
known, roam about, betting book in hand, without
any such means of identification. All invite you to
deposit with them sums varying from £5 upwards,
on the assurance that, if the horse you fancy wins,
they will repay you the odds which they offer. They
seemed yesterday to fight shy of Lord Lyon, but
they never tired of " pelting" Rustic and Redan.
"I'll lay five to one, bar one." " I'll bet against
Blue Riband," " I'll lay against Vespasian," pro-
nounced Vespassion. " What horse do you want
Is there any horse you fancy, sir?"

ri
s"0 m ‘e‘
every variety of tone and of accent, cockney and
provincial—the accent which breathed of the more
or less sweet south, and that which unmistakably
disclosed the hardy speculator from the West
Riding.

Above all this hubbub rises the great roar of
the crowd outside the ring. And to all save ab-
sorbed bookmakers this sound, and the spectacle of
thousands upon thousands of men clustering upon
the hill-side opposite the Grand Stand, or ranged by
this time in long dense lines on either side of the
course, has in it something almost majestic. After
the usual rush to the paddock, where the knowing
ones make their last observations and gather mate-
rials on which to found their last last bets, the ex-
citement increases. Lord Lyon is the first to show
in the course. The favourite seems in perfect con-
dition and "He doesn't run ; he flies," is the criticism
passed upon his trial canter by one of his admirers.
To the uninstructed eye the same favourable cri-
ticism might be passed upon other horses which
gallop past, full of fire, and hardly seeming to touch
the ground. They are soon gathered in a cluster at
the starting-place, but much time is spent, and six
or seven false starts are made before they get fairly
off. Then the whole six-and-twenty toil up the
hill, and only practised eyes with good glasses to
help them can tell how the race is going. The few
who can distinguish colours at this distance pro-
claim aloud that Blue Riband is leading ; that the
favourite has now deposed him ; that in

waiting, not to be shaken off ; and that Knight of
the Crescent, Redan, and the Bribery colt are well
to the front. Then the horses are seen emerging
into the straight run home, and glasses are put
aside, for now most people who hope to see any-
thing can see for themselves. As the rush comes
nearer, and the clatter of hoofs begins to be heard,
a horse with unfamiliar colours is seen where the
favourite had been and ought to be. A cry is raised
" Bribery colt wins, by Jove !" And amid the
feverish excitement that now prevails it certainly
looks as if the " dark " horse is to carry off the
great prize of the turf. But now the jockey with
the black jacket and scarlet cap is seen making his
effort, and gaining gradually upon the horse which
alone remains between him and victory. " His
Lordship is too late," several voices cry, and so
really he appears to be. The colt has plenty of
running still in rim, but Lord Lyon has more, and,
drawing up head to head with his dangerous rival,
as the two pass the centreoof the Grad Stand, is in
the next breath bailed the winner by a short head.
Rustic, a big, showy horse, from which one would
have expected better things, comes in a bad third ;
Knight of the Crescent a good fourth.

There was less excitement than usual at the close
of the race, for the victory of outsiders is more of a
surprise than the victory of favourites, which comes
pretty much as a foregone conclusion. Mr. Sutton
received with entire equanimity the congratulations
offered to him. Coolness, indeed, is the characteris-
tic of the veteran turfite, who wins or loses with
equal imperturbability. The value of the stakes
was £7,550. According to Benson's " Chrono-
graph" the race was rather a slow one. It occupied
2 min. 49 sec., while that of last year was run in 2
min. 45f sec. ; and that of 1864 (Blair Athol's
year) in 2 min. 43:1 sec.
The most gigantic assemblage of pleasure-
seekers ever gathered together on Epsom race-
course, Was—under the skilled supervision of Mr.
Dorling, the indefatigable and world-famous Clerk
of the Course (aided immediately by an admirable
body of our metropolitan police)—marshalled with a
perfectly astounding skill to the enjoyment of one
of the most delightful holidays that ever gladdened
the hearts of so vast and orderly a multitude of
Englishmen.

But one disturbance of any especial importance,
in fact, fell under our own immediate observation—
looking down for hours upon that stupendous
throng from our " coign of 'vantage " upon the
Grand Stand. It was a disturbance, however, in
its way, of the most disgraceful description
well imaginable. It occurred, too, at the moment
of supreme expectation—when every one was
most upon the alert : namely, very shortly before
the Derby was run, and after the Course had
been pretty well cleared. Regarding the scene
from the distance from which we viewed it—
namely, from our elevated post upon the Grand
Stand, it was the infliction of Summary Punishment
upon some miserable Welsher, hard-by the bound aric s
of the Ring—the unhappy wight being set upon and
hammered upon the head and thrashed about the
body, as the phrase is " within an inch of his
life," by the surrounding mob—the vindicators of
the outraged majesty of Lynch Law! So summary,
in truth, was the punishment administered, that,
before the victim could be rescued by the police
authorities, he had had every stitch of clothes, from
the crown of his head to the soles of his feet,
torn from his body, so that when he was expelled
beyond the barriers he was as naked as he was
born—the remnants of his clothing being after-
wards shredded into at atoms by the victorious
Lynchers. It almost seemed as if the vigour of
the police alone saved those same Lynchers from
the unintended crime of manslaughter.

The weather, unpromising at first, improved in
the afternoon ; there was no rain ; but the Derby
Dav of 1866 will be remembered as a cold, un-
genial one, even for May.
The following is a detailed description of the
racing.

Crescent, 40 to 1 agst Abergelnie, 50 to 1 agst Strathconan,
GG to 1 agst Westwick, and 1,000 to 15 each agst Plutus and
Robin Hood.

The customary interval of an hour appointed for the ac-
commodation of those holding paddock tickets for the inspec-
tion of the six-and-twenty competitors having elapsed, the
bell rang for clearing the course. This was scarcely done
when Lord Lyon, Monarch of the Glen, and hidalgo were
seen threading their way through the crowd from Tattenham
corner, the trio Having performed their toilet at the Warren
stables. The favourite was, of course, the centre of attrac-
tion, and as he reached the stand in charge of his owner
the confidence of his partisans was considerably increased
by Mr. Sutton raising his umbrella above his head in
answer to their repeated plaudits. Scarcely had this little
episode subsided than the remainder of the field made their
appearance, headed by Strathconan, Rustic, and Blue
Riband, who, having taken their preliminary canters, re-
turned to the enclosure, and then joined Mr. M.George.
As usual, they missed the first and most favourable oppor-
tunity of getting away, though Tacitus jumping round the
contrary way, and in consequence nearly half an hour was
consumed before a satisfactory start was accomplished.
Soon after the colours of Freedom, wide on the right of the
moving cavalcade, were seen in advance, in whose wake
were seen Stabber, Robin Hood, Blue Riband, Knight of
the Crescent, Redan, and the Bribery colt in close com-
pany ; a length or so on their left came Toxophilite colt,
with IVestwick, Janitor, Vespasian, and Abergeldie form-
ing the next division, in the rear of whom were observed
Tacitus, Harefield, Laneret, and The Czar, the latter being
left at the post. As they entered " the furzes" by the mile
and quarter post, Blue Riband rushed to the front, and,
heading Freedom, who immediately disappeared from the
van, came on with the running at an improved pace, evi-
dently to serve his stable companion, Robin Hood holding
the second honour, closely attended as they fairly rounded
the turn into the old course. Here Lord Lyon was seen
gradually moving to the front, and fairly on the hill he ran
up to the quarters of the Baron's second string, attended
with the most jealous solicitude by his most dangerous
opponent Rustic. To those succeeded Kutht of the Cres-
cent, Redan, the Bribery colt, Strathconan, Vespasian,
Janitor, and Lord Glasgow's colt, who followed the leaders
in a body round the turn into the straight. At this critical
point the shouts from the Stand announced the defeat of
Blue Riband and Robin Hood, who before the road was
reached had disappeared from the front, leaving the favou-
rite in the centre of the course, with a slight lead of Redan,
but the latter dying away to nothing in the next few
strides, the pair gave way in turn to the Bribery colt, who
came up full of running on the lower ground, and taking
a clear lead as they came on appeared to have the two
favourites beaten at the distance. Half way up, however,
Custance, who had, having ridden with great patience,
disposed of the Danebury favourite, gradually drew upon
the leader, whom he caught in the centre of the stand, and
coming with ono run, landed the popular colour of Mr.
Sutton in the last stride by a head. There were three
lengths between the second and third, Lord Exeter's colt
finishing a head in the rear of Rustic. Janitor was fifth,
and Blue Riband
