EGIIAM RACES.

rather than the merit of the horses, have contributed to give these races THE visit of Royalty and the sacred ground over which the course lies, interest. They commenced on Tuesday; on which day their Majesties, and their royal and noble visitants and suite, honoured the show by their presence. A little before two o'clock, the Duke and Duchess of Glou- cester arrived at the Royal Stand, and in a short time were followed by their Majesties in an open phaeton and four with a few outriders; in the same carriage were the Landgravine of Hesse Romberg and the Duke of Saxe Meiningen. The remainder of the Royal party occupied five open carriages and four. The principal members of the suite were- Their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Cambridge, Prince George of Cambridge, Princess Augusta. their Serene Highnesses the Duchesses of Saxe Weimar and daughters, Saxe Meiningen, and the Duke of Saxe Meiningen ; Earl of Albemarle, Lord Clinton, Lord Errol, Lord Adolphus Fitzelareuce, Sir A. Barnard, Sir W. Preemantle, Rev. M. Wood, Colonel Thornton. Their Majesties were received, as usual, with lively demonstrations of respect, and entered with great affability into the afternoon's amuse- ments; on their departure the cheers of the spectators were enthusi- astic. Among the fashionables were the following- Marquis Graham, Earl Jersey, Earl of Uxbridge, Count Bathinny, Earl Mount- diaries, Earl Stradbroke, Earl of March, Lord Villiers, Lord \V.
