ASCOT 'MATH RACES--Toten Day, Tntramobv.
The show of fuhionables yesterday, the immense number of ge-
nerd
.speettators, and the superior description of the upon, made
ample sounds fat any deficiency which might have existed the pre.
ceding day. By one o'clock the lead ensentbk of the cootie was es,
tremely animated sod brilliant; the sands were 811.4 with elle-
lastly dressed females, the sides of the course lined with the pod
diversity of vehicles, saddle whole crowned by the preemie* of the

Sovereign. -
His Majesty came to the course at his usual hour, accompanied
by their Royal Highoesies the Duke and Duchess of Clarellee, who
remained in the Royal stand with his Majesty during the whole u(
the races. The Royal party left the Heath after the tut rat?, be.
tween four and Ste o'clock, and was, as well as on iti alt ival, local!/'
cheered, by the most numerous assemblage we ever saw an 4iso
ground. The Right Hon. George Canning was t•restots add ha
the course of the day was introduced to his Majesty, valist *book
bands with him very cordially, and conversed with Aim wilted
minutes. Many Noblemen were presented to the King by the
Lord in waiting, in the intervals of the races. It will be observed
' that his Majesty was again successful with his Shy Maria, which
carried off the Windsor Forest Stakes.

An eccentric procession took place in the course of the day,
which, not having been seen before on a race-course, is worthy of
mention. It coedited of the dray-horses of Mr. Ratudsottom„ the
brewer of Windsor, about twenty-four in number, with a drayman
and others on theback of each. The beauty of the horses, and the
nevelt? of *scoriae:de, drew general observation, and tnere were
not stew who wondered what they had to do with the mew This
was net the only circumstance which struck us as being new, pot we
observed that, in order to preserve their eyes from the clouds of dust
which keireall day lying abort oo the toad, &Feral Gentlemen had
provided themselves with green Yells, and being tied refund their
hats after the manner of the Ladies, fully answered the desired
effect. The plan is not a bad one on such oratasions, for the dust
was redly very annoying.
