30 to 1 agst Backbiter (t) 130 to 1 agst Landgrave (t)
TUESDAY.
The continued fineness of the weather, and a vast in-
flux of visitors from the manufacturing districts, have
given an éclat to the commencement of the races that,
under any circumstances, would be gratifying to the
townspeople, but which becomes doubly so after the
recent attempt of an unpopular section to suppress
them ; that their progress will be equally favourable
does not admit of a doubt. The assemblage on the
course this afternoon was exceedingly numerous, a clear
proof that the stewards, in strengthening the ist with
the Great Yorkshire Handicap exercised a wise discre-
tion—of late years the first day has been the least at-
tractive. The Grand Stand was patronised by a large
and fashionable company, and the enclosure was densely
crowded by men of business from all the sporting dis-
tricts. So little time is left to forward onr parcel to the
express train, that we must leave the racing to speak for
itsel£ The St. Leger betting continues flat, and with
scarcely any change in the quotations. The prices at
the close of the racing this afternoon, are given else-
where. The following is a return of the running:_

A HIGHLANDER ON HORSEBACK,--The Aberdeen
Banner, in commenting on the Duke of Atholl's conduct in
reference to the laying the foundation stone of the National
Gallery for Scotland, recently reported in the Daily News,
says—" We thought his Grace of Athol( was.supremely
ridiculous, attired in the kilt and riding on horseback,• as he
figured: Braemar the other week—at least, the majority
Of the spectators did not seem to fancy his position as a
graceful one; but this exposure is worse still. If such doings
are persisted in, aristocracy will speedily be at a 0*(143
