The attendance at the races here to-day
was very large, over 5000 persons being
present. The heat was extremely oppres-
sive and the crowd walked around the
ring with wilted collars and muttered un-
pleasant things about the heat. Not
withstanding all this the talent began
the afternoon well by pinning their faith
he proved himself worthy of the conf
dence reposed in him. They followed up
their success by achieving a
grand victory with Sir knight in
the second race; had plenty Of
money on Jack the Jew, though he was
not fovorlte, but had been tipped quietly
in the third, and heavily backed the odds
on favorite, Don Alonzo, in the fourth.
The Don" had Herald aud Lizzie against
him, but he just played with them, run
ming about two lengths behind until all
were Strengthened out for home, when he
got his head and settled all doubts as to
the winner. The talent also captured the
fifth and sixth races and returned to the
city in very pleasant frame Of mind.
