The Twenty -Fourth in Clinton. Clinton had a big day on Tuesday last. The old town was packed fall. The trains fre n" every " direction were crowded with people from the .neigh- boring towns and villages, and pleasure seekers from the surrounding country came pouring in during the entire fore- noon in vehicles. All the hotel and many private stables were crammed full, and horses could have been seen tied around under sheds and in almost every vacant lot about the place. Dur- ing the afternoon there mast have been between three and four thousand people on the driving park where the amuse- ments of the day were conducted. The weather, although warm was very fav- orable for a celebration of the kind, and everything seemed to pass off quietly and in good order, and the spectators appeared perfectly satisfied that they had got full value for their money and trouble. The first thing on the day's programme were the ATHLETIC SPORTS.

These commenced a ]ittle after one o'clock and were con- tinued with spirit until about seven. The races advertised all came off with the exception. of the running race, which did not fill. They were all even- ly contested and created among the vast crowd of spectators the most in- tense interest, which was maintained until the close. The first race was A LOCAL TROT, for horses owned in the county of Huron that had never competed for ; public money ; mile heats, best two in three. First horse $25, 2nd $10, 3rd $5. For this race the following horses were _entered and started : Robert Kerr's "Dan Martin," J. Miller's "Maitland May," W. S. Robertson's "Cariboo," John Kyle's "Seaforth Girl," John Sparrow's "Billy" and Geo. E. Hender- son's "Lottie." First Heat. -The horses got a good start, and before the first hall round "Seaforth Girl" came to the front, which position she kept until the hone stretch was reached, when "Cariboo," who' had kept a good third place, launched out, and with a good burst of speed came to the front and came in first by a good half length, with the girl second- and "Dan Martin" third. "Maitland May" and "Billy" were dis- tanced. This heat was trotted in 3.11. <ttie.. .:_. rdwarw Billy yal George ' by. ... ad.. .. 1'I Mi hors Pura $30 owi D. Rob 'Lit ter.'

Second Heat.-"Seaforth Girl," again took the lead, but "Dan Martin" soon overhauled her and took filst place, which he kept without making a skip until the close of the heat. "Cariboo" acted badly in this heat until near the end, when he settled down to work and came in a good second, with ''Lottie" third, and the leading mare in the previous heat distanced. Time 3.07. Third Heat. -"Dan Martin" set off with the lead this time, and kept his position throughout the heat, "Cariboo" following him up well, with "Lottie" a good third. On the second round the three horses kept close, crowding each other nicely, and it was a matter for speculation whether "Dan" or "Cari- boo" would get first place, when the latter struck himself, went up, and lost time, being passed by "Lottie," who kept her position to the end of the heat, making a splendid second. This ended the race, giving "Dan Martin" first money, "Cariboo" second, and "Lottie" ..third. This wasa good race through- out, the last heat, which was trotted in 3.03, being really exciting.
