Our Races yesterday were not very numerously attend, d. We
never saw so few equipages on the groutid on a similar occasion,
and the company on foot was nut so large as had been antioi-
pated. We are at a loss to account for this, unless it indicate a
decay of interest in the sports of the turf. The new Stand was
graced by the presence of a considerable number of elegant La-
dies, and the weather was not unfavourable to their enjoyment
of the Races. The heats were not contested with much spirit,
and from this part of the day's amusement we derived but very
little pleasure.
The Ball in the evening, though not crowded, was attended
by most of the principal families in the town and neighbourhood,
and the dancing was sustained with great animation till a late
hour. Among the company were the Earl of Harrington and
Lady Caroline Stanhope, Lady Scarsdale and family, Hon. Col.
Cavendish, Sir Roger Gresley and 3. R. B. Cave, Esq. (Stew-
ards), Lady Gresley and Miss Coventry, Sir Robert and Lady
Wilmot, Sir Richard and L KIT Keats, J. Watts Russell, Esq.
M.P. and Mrs. Russell, H. F. C. Cavendish, Esq. M.P. T.W.
