There was not any attendance to-day, the betting men not having
yet returned; a very strong muster will take place to wind op the
St. Leger accounts. The payments, however, after the Northern
Races, are not so large at Tattersall's, as after Epsom or Newmar-
ket Races, the bets being generally nettled at the,place where de-
cided. After Monday the betting *ill become interesting on the
Derby it a Oaks, and the different stakes for the October Meetings.

DONCASTER RACEE--Wenwesosv, Seta. 22.
The attendance to-day was not so numerous as on the preceding
days, in consequence of many persons who ha waited only for the
determination, of the St. Leger, having departed ; but suit the
Course presented an animated and brilliant appearance. Great in-
terest was excited by the bill of fare for the day, 'which was very
flattering, and the tact of Canteen and Brutandorf being entered
to run for the Gascoigne, greatly increased the anxiety of spurting
men, as it was CalCulated to afford a certain criterion of the powers
of the two horses. Canteen was backed to a heavy amount at wide
odds. The following is an emirate statement

Mitiontutts Stamm—Everybody knows that Smith is a. very
Icommon name, but hardly anybody would have thought of turning
its commonness to account in such a queer and cruel way as a
1" Gentleman" did, the other night, at one of the theatres. Enter-
ing the pit at half-price, and finding every seat occupied, he bawl, d
out " Mr. Small's house is on fire ! In an instant, upward.. of
twenty Mr. Smiths rushed out of the pit, and the wicked was,
Icbuckling at the success of his stratagem, coolly took possession of
one of their vacated seats.
