those present
The racing at Long Branch is drawing to close,
and though the attendance this meeting be
said to have been large in comparison with other
years It has been fair under tho circumstances,
for lovers OF racing cannot face
the heat with the thermometer standing above 100 in
the shade But for this unconquerablc drawback we
doubt much II tho meeting would not have equacd in
success any OF the previous ones at this place.
Although great crowd has not put appearance
t this charming spot those that have faced the scorch
ing rays of sun have been well repaid by the
ceilcnt sport they have witnessed Tho fields have
been good, and in almost every the finishes have
been close and most exciting. Tomorrow, the last
day of The meeting, large attendance may he looked
for. Rain, within the last two days has fallen
copiousy in New Jersey, laying the dust and putting
tho track in the best possible order. Cool brcezes
from what Mrs Partington called ''thc broad itaic'
will give vigor to those exhausted by the heat of the
city with fine lot OF good horses run, and this
shouln bring large crowd witness the ''wind up,
