SARATOGA RACES.
Fifth Day Of the Meeting-Three Capital
Races-LObelia, Nellie James and
Narraganset the Winners.
SARATOGA, August 0, 1860.

SARATOGA, August Q, 1860.
Notwithstanding the departure Of great number
Of visitors for the Buffalo races ana home the crowd
here has not at all diminished. General Sheridan
left this morning but most OF the other notables re-
main. Over 600 persons arrived on Saturday and
Sunday morning, and this morning immense trains,
each drawn by two locomotives, added at
least 1000 people to the throng already here.
The base bah match between the Atantics
and Haymakers no doubt contributed in
great degree TO this overwhelming rush OF
visitors although the races Of to-day and to-
morrow are Of great interest and will both probably
eclipse the successes OF the previous week. The day,
although threatened yesterday with ram, could not
have been more favorable. The display OF equ
pages was very brilliant, the ladies f0cking en- nasse
to the course to witness the hurdle races. Last
week the hurdle race was more largely attended by
ladies than any other Of the etings at the cOnrse
and on both occasions the fair sex seemed to lose in
terest In the running soon as the hurdles were
removed from the track and the risk Of breaking
days races on Saturday evening and this morning
were very spirited, and betting at the course was
unusually lively. A great many ladies INDUCED in
the excitement Of bonnet and small purse wagerS,
and a lew select cOter1es made up sweepstakes Of
from ten to fifty dollars each. fhe Spanlards and
Cubans went In heavy ON the races and exchanged
large sums, one lucky Cuban pocketing over $4,000
on the days winnings. The Enghshmen present also
bet literally among themselves one Of them losing
great number Of the sporting fraternity will
man over Friday to- attend the rotting match be-
tween Vanderbit's Mountain Boy and Lady Thorn.
The track Is rather soft and unfavOraDle for tr0t
ting but the managers expect by constant rolling
to put the course In good condition by Friday.
Mountain Boy has been here several days, and Lady
Thorn is expected to-day. Few bets have been made
the trot, but attention Is chiefly monOpozed by
the races OF to-day and tomorrow. Mountain Boy
is thus far the favorte.
