the principal item of attraction in the programme ; it was
won by Lord Stamford' s recent purchase, Newcastle, whop

certain horses.
Every facility was afforded the visitors for returning t°
their respective stations. Special trains were put on for
the occasion, and the station-master, Mr. Wood. assid_u-
ously attended to the many requirements of the returnmjff
passengers. The journey to London by both the "spec"-
and the Edinburgh express was most expeditiously Per-
formed.
