1t was thought that a number of the
horsemen would winter here, but such
will not be the case. though they are
all satisfied and enthusiastic over the
track, but think it more to their adj
vantage to get further North and
West. This will be regretted, as the
presence of racing animals tend to
keep up and inspire interest in the
sport. - : f. -. - s.--.--------s--
A Horscmhn on the Meet.

ter day." have been the best 1
have ever seen, and 1 am very much
surprised at more people not attend
ing. They certainly missed a treat
in this line that is not witnessed
every day. The horsemen are very
grateful for the kind and fair man
ner in which they were treated by
all connected with the meet, and will
long remember the event with pleas
ure. Should there ever be another
race meet in Savannah, in which such
