The Races.

There was rather small attendance
at the races yesterday, and the day
was Somewhat disagreeable, on ac-
count OF the wind prevailing, but not
withstanding these drawbacks the pro-
gramme was enacted satisfactorily.
The first race was for $500, the fol-
lowing horses entering: G. A. Durfee's
s. r. g. "Enoch Arden" Chico Fors-
ter's C. g. paddy" L. J. Roses b. m.
Barbara and w. H. Cade's "Harry
Dirigo." For some cause not known
to us, Paddy failed to make his ap-
pearance. In the start Barbara took
the pole, with Enoch Arden second
and Harry Dirigo third. The trio re-
ceived a good send-off and struck out
in fine style. Enoch Arden took the
lead from the first and maintained
his position throughout, winning the
heat in 1852, Harry Dirigo coming in
second and Barbara third. The Sec
ond was simply repetition of the
first, Enoch Arden out-trotting both
his competitors, coming in again an
easy. winner. Time, 1858. In the
third heat Dirigo made desperate
effort to save his bacon, and passed
Enoch Arden on the first quarter, but
broke, fell behind and came in third
best Time, 2:5l3.
Enoch Arden was declared winner
of the heat and race.
SECOND RACE.
This was running race, free for all
three-year-olds, for a purse of $3.50.
The entries were: Judge Reeds b. s..
Careless and f. NJ. Slaughter's C. s..
Polly Lee. The first heat was won by
Careless-time, l:574; second by Polly
Lee in 2 two minutes; and the third
by Polly Lee, in 2:15.
Polly Lee was declared winner of the
race.
TO-DAY'S PROGRAMME.
The races will open with a run, free
to all horses that have never beaten
$50; mile heats, best three in five, to
harness. Purse: S175 to first, and SIS
to second horse. The entries are: j.
l.. Roses Moor. Henry Hazards Pilot
Chief, and w. II. Cade's Harry Dirigo.
The Second event will be running
race, free for all two-year-olds; half
mile and repeat. The entries are John
Reeds s. g. Bob Gill, William Berry's
George Walker, and j. w. Donathan's
Ballet Girl.
Doubtless there will be larger at
tendance to-day, and it is to be hoped
there will be something of an improve
ment in the weather, so that nothing
may occur to mar the pleasure of the
day.

THE Civil Rights bill passed by
Congress, if it can be enforced, will
destroy all distinction, social and
otherwise, between the whites and
blacks. 1t remains to be seen whether
Congress can compel colored gentle
