Mr.. Hobart again had the satisfaction of
seeing the blue pinned to the throat

society is we'll aware that the cousins are

look upon each other with frowning

the turnout which excited adverse COM

which the initiated declared were not ex-

Mr.. Baldwin showed himself irreproach-
able as driver. He passed through the
posts without touching them.
President Crocker's coach, with that
gentleman on the box. aud Walter S. Ho-
bart manipulating the ribbons, was the
next to enter. After the latter had given
brief display of his skill Mr.. Crocker
took the reins and gave highly creditable
exhibition, albeit he knocked down a sim
