iIE'ATON PARK RACES.

We have Hitherto omitted noticing the race-course,
whiCh, situated in one of the pleasantest parts of
the park, is allowed to. be one of the finest private
race-grounds in the kingdom. Opposite to the
coming-in chair, a beautiful temporary stand, capable
of ;being removed at pleasure, was erected for the
,accommodation of his Lordship's numerous guests.
A handsome union jack, and several other flags, were
planted in various parts of it, giving- it a very
mated appearance; the space beneath was fitted tp
as dressing and weighing-rooms for the riders. The
most striking, feature
,Of the race-course, and, one
which, from
.the immense number of visitors,, was
evidentlt ,the most 'attractive, .was the large booth"erected y Mr.' Dean, of the Bush Inn, Manchester,
a tavern InoWn all over England for "its 'itiperior.
accommodation and comfort. In compliment to
Lord Wilton, the apartments in ; the booth were
linng with, blue and white draperies (his Lordship's
jockey colours), and, neatly decorated with artificial
flowers. To give some idea, of the extraordinary
liberality displayed in catering for the 'appetites of
the-distingtiislied visitors, We subjoin Mr. Dean's
of fare .for the first .day :—Baron of .beef,,
,ten turkeys, twenty couple of :fowls, six 'hatils,
twelve tongues, cold.game in, abundance, two mode-
rate-sided game
_pies., (containing, twenty, brace of
partridges, four brace of
,grouse, one hriice of hares,•
((Stir topple of rabbits,. arid, twO necks of veniioh),,
twenty'fogeon pies, fifty thizen of veal pies;linir hl-
lets of-veal, pickled salmbn,jellies," &c., and all thiS‘
vanished in one' day,,besides an immense' quantity; of
Champagne, Hock, Claret,:iMadeira, Bucellas, and
other
.wines of more liumhle (polity.

due to all parties for thimatitter,in which tho two
days' races were conducted; and
_the precision With
'which they were Clec•ided. by "Mr:Miller, the' expe-
rienced judge of Chester and IsTOrthalleiton,--was
SpOlterf of- in terms of admiration. Altogether the
meeting was remarkable for the excellence of the
sport and the rank of its supporters.
The attendance yesterday was less numerous than
on the day, previous, from the unfavourable state of
the Weather„ In' the evening his Lordship' gave a
:grituitilinner and ball to nearly'2oo of the Nobility
and Gentry,in the_ neighbourhood, On this occasion
the .conservatory and avenues were lighted tip with
variegated. lamps, interwoven with Wreaths iof
flowers, "Dancing was kept up till two &Clack
in the morning, when a splendid supper gave ti finhle
to the 'amusements.
