IGENCE:
EDNESDAY.

Sir James Graham's interdiction of gamilig on race-
courses, although it may not touch several of the first-
class meetings, have a serous influence on the minor ones,
and more particularly on those within the " Home Cir-
cuit." Thus Hampton, which of late years, has fur-
nished sport enough for three profitable days, com-
menced yesterday with such diminished resources, that
the third day has most reluctantly been given up.
Egham, previously in a tottering state, from the "poverty
of the land," has also "pronounced," and several other
places that we will not prejudice by naming, must adopt
a similar course, if they be not compelled to quit the field
altogether. The effect of 'this prohibition on Hampton
was not confined to the curtailment of a day's racing ;
those who were present yesterday must have been struck
with the half furnished appearance of the course, arising
out of the absence of the long row of gay marquees, that
were wont to be all life and excitement ; they must also
have missed the pea and thimble gentry, and that compa-
ratively harmless class that have so long presided over
a ganle of skill, at which the risk was small and cheating
impossible, termed in the House of Commons " throwing
the stick," a game, we take it, not a whit more dis-
reputable than one often played by lion. Members,
known as throwing the hatchet. All these features had
disappeared, and, wanting them, theApeeting yesterday
was superlatively flat, and, we fear, tMroductive.
The course was not kept by the police—a few were
present, by order, we presume, of the higher powers,
some of them mounted and armed with sabres; but the
duties hitherto performed by them were entrusted to
men employed by the lessees of the ground, and, it is
due to them to say, were quite as well executed; we
understand that nearly one hundred are engaged for the
same purpose this day. The assemblage of company
was of that varied character peculiar to Hampton,
obliging us, in our notice of the fashionables, to restrict
ourselves to a very small selection; this selection, how-
ever, will show that many of the old supporters of
Moulsey Hurst rallied round the proprietors:—Marquis
of Worcester, Earl of Lonsdale, Earl of Rosslyn, Count
Bathyany, Lord A. Paget, Lord Glammis, Lord Long-
ford, Lord E. Russell, Lord G. Bexitilick, Lord Maid-
stone, Lord Macdonald, Lord Ranelagh, Sir J. Kaye,
Sir . Ibbotson, Sir G. Heathcote, Sir W. W. Wynne,
Sir V. Cotton, Sir D. Baird, Hon. Capt. Rous, Bon.
Boyle, Hon. F. Villiers, Hon. G. Ongley; Hon. M. Ongley,
Hon.L.Wellesley, Hon. Mr. Lowther, Col. Knox,Col. Peel,
Messrs. Magennis, Blair, Williams, Williamson, Gra-
ham, Cayley, Bastard, Greville, Rush, J. Stanley, Payne,
Drummond, &c. The day's sport, which was under the
personal superintendence of the SteVvards, Count Ba-
thyany, and the Marquis of WO-ree-iter-aSsiSted by Mr.
Parsons, as Clerk of the Course, and Mr. Hibburd,
, Judov produced the following results :

3 yrs, sst 41b. 6 to 4 on Blackdrop. The Devil-
among-the-Tailors made play to the top turn, where
Deuce Ace overpowered her rider, went on the wrong
side of the post, crossed the course, and forced the other
horses out of their ground. Blackdrop then took the
lead, tailed off his horses before they reached the last
turn, and won by six or seven lengths.

the second beating the third by a head. For this heat
there were three or four false starts, and in the final one
Mr. Rush's colt was left behind, and did not save his
distance. The third heat produced a splendid race be-
tween the winners of the other two, and was won only
by half a neck.
