su,isr 10 what has been before described. The
vrathcr was cooler and more agreeable than on any
nrcyious OCCASION and the attendance greater during
The dAy The ladies stsnd was even more attractive
thsn on Thursday.
Nu O'Clock the family horses and roa3sters passed
In rcvicw The entries Of these classes OF nni mails
amounted 20 40, and there were about 100 present
The most attractive feature of this part of the exhibit
tioo was the driving Of Mrs. David Fales Of Paw
tucket the ls6y Of hr. Fales Of the firm OF Fsles
jerks Of Central Falls, rear Pavtucket. The lady
was neatly attrCd in plain travelling dress. and she
drove fast bay horse which appeared TO be perfectly
under her CONTROL When going at full speed we saw
her draw up and stop within the distance OF the horse
own kugth. Mrs. +. passed and repassed the stand
eeyeral times and was loudly oheered every tne ohe
drove With great spirit and seemed 70 enjoy the fun
exceedingly The dexierty with which she extrcaed
her horse and carriage from very critical position was
loudly spplsnded gentleman VINO Wss nlHeu up
with the same tif6culty and who seemed 10 nave an
eoual chance TO escape was 80 unfortunate as 10 ge
his carria smashed. He, however, escaped unhurt
The dispay of these domestic animals by their owners
was an Interesting feature To commence an enuner-
atom or attempt a description would take space
than can be devoted to this subject The bay horse OF
Mr. Tyitcheu, Of the Boston aud Worcester Railway,
was considered the finest among this class OF animals
The trial of draft horses was next in order. They
were attached TO heavy loads, but no attempt was
made TO goad them on and they moved with degree
of ease and swfness which exhibited great strength,
considering the generally light character of the horses
The pair Of matched black horses belonging 10 the
Eagle Screw Company of Providence exhibited the
highest qualities of any draft horses on the ground
they are handsome pair, and draw Iour-wneei
wagon be .vy loaded with great case. There il
INN colt antared by Albert Weaver OF Providence,

THE TROTTING.
At o'clock p M. there were from eight TO ten
thousand ladies and gentlemen present, and the most
exciting part Of todays exhibition commenced. Sew
era entries had been made for this trial of speed but
only three were filed, as follows:
"Lsdy Litchfeld,' soIrel mare, driven by Daniel
Mud.
"Patapsco" driven by VIM. Woodruff.
"Cigar Boy" driven by Addison Carpenter.
Judges Of The MGtch-E Byerly of New-York,
VIM. LoudOn of Albany, and Ii. Ii. Knight OF Prov
idence.
The race consisted of one mile heats, best three in
five, to harness. Frst premium, $780, second pre-
MUM, 800.
There was some difficulty in starting right but after
two or three unsuccessful attenpis the word
given and of went the competitors, Cigar Boy ha7-
ing the pole and LADY Litchhed' the outside; but
saudng this disadvantage in starting she soon
took the esd, accomplished the circle in 245l, Cigar
Boy" coming In second.
II was now considered pretty certain that "Lady
90 IitchtiCd would win the 1T5t prlZe, 80 tnet the
greatest interest was attached to " Cigar Boy and
"Paspsco, as to which would win the second prlZe;
and this interest increased by the result OF the
second heat. Lady Litcbfeld' ou:ryaled her first
trot, coming in in .: AZ and " Patapsco" second.
The third heat decided the race, Lady Litchdeid
being in first--time 2 Az "patapscO second, being
half neck in advance of 90 Cigar Boy.
The excitement during every heat was intense
Hsckmen cmuibus drivers, and the drivers Of private
carriages were all deeply interested that IN order 10
get 10 the City il time for the four o'clock tram we
were compelled to Quadruple i9duco nent or DC 100
late with our last dispatch. THE cheering on the
arrival of 90 Lacy Lichfeld the third time was very
enthusiastic and the merits Of Paapsco" and Cigar
Boy" were also acknowe iged by the spectators.
The speed OF fancy matched horses was next 10
be ted. Only two entries were made. They
started well. but one Of the competitors hauled up al
the half mile pole, and the pair owned by Mr. Hubbard
driven by w. b. Montague, both OF Mlddletown
Conn tret.ed the circle in grand Style arriving 10 goo
foot had been projected to close the sports OF
the day. but this was objected 10 by some OF the
Board of Managers, the speed OF Young America ON
foot was not put to the test, and the vast assembly
filed the humorous vehicles awaiting them aad drove
to their respective homes in excellen, spirits.
