GOODWOOD RACES.—TCESDAY.
The Goodwood Races have now been established
forty-two years, and, after many ups and downs,"
thuarvfedattained an eminence to which the records of the
not furnish a parallel. The first meeting, in
April, 1802, occupied three days, and produced sixteen
sores, the highest in value 1001., and the aggregate
mething under 1,0001. So little encouragement did
tthey receive for some years, that in 1810, then held in
ae, they had dwindled down to two days, and the sport
the couple of races and three walks over, amounting in
whole to little more than 2001.! With the establish-
tilite"n- of the Goodwood Stakes in 1843, the Drawing-
ileepSstakes in 1827, the Goodwood Cup, won by Fleur-
-14,_15) 1829 followed by the Molecomb, Lavant, Grat-
oictr R. aoitig, and other rich and. important stakes, and
&utile immense advances made since 1828, all must be
tweei ar.st be-
may mention, however, as a contra
n the present and the earlier meetings, that the
,:grareine for the current week contains nearly forty
-117,3' embracing stakes for horses of every age and cha-
teeter, and for jockeys, amateur and professional, from
outerrston.e five pounds up to thirteen. stone, amounting,
a liberal allowance for forfeits, to about twenty-
'e thousandpounds! It is not alone in sport that such
tiaPid strides have been made—at a lavish but
icious expefiditure the course has been freed from
rus on defects, and, either for trainlng or
