BIT. Dallas said it was in contemplation to mave the wall to near the Monumens, and to. "place a hardle for the fires jump.

Mr. Savage alen, thought the double opposite the Grand Stand might be improved

Voice-It might be made a” treble. (Laughter.)

Mr. J. S. Fearon remarked that the number of entries for the Steeplechase was generally no small that it was hardly worth while to alter the course. He thought it, would be better to have only an Steeplechase at each meeting.

Mr. Walker thought there would be a larger. namber if the wall were altered.

The Chairman safil it would probably be suf fotent to draw the uttention of the Stewards to the question, who would take it into considera- tion.

Mr. Savage had only wisted to call attention

to the subject, i

Mr. Lindsay observed that there was another abject to which he might ask their attention. He thought it would be more convenient to call the annual menting immediately after the Au tumn races, when matters were froth in the minds of the mumbers, and would be likely to receive closer attention than at a long period afterwards. If the sphjeet were brought to the notice of the Stewards, Lboy would perhaps see fit to wake the alteration.

Mr. J. 8. Fearon did not agree with the eng. geated altoration. Be considered the proper time to hold the annual meeting was when the accounts were presented.

Do discussion followed, and,

Mr. Linday said he only mentioned, the matter suggestively, and dki not intend to pro- pose any resolution upon it,

The pers baginess was the election of Stew ards for the offing year.

The Chairman maid thore-Was a TROBOY caused by Dr. Gottburg going home, and an other by Mr. Dabas retirement in order to be- come Clarks of the Gomise. The meeting would, however, ballot for stewards as usual.

The Chairman read a letter from Mr. P. Y: Grant, to the effect that the engineers of Shangbai bad subscribed Tls. 500 for the pur share of a piece of late, toi he ran for and won two consecutive years by China pouy from. the same atuble. (Applence.).

Mr. Fergusson moved, and bir. Hitch second- ed, a cordial vote of thanks to Mr. Grout and the subscribers to the Plate, which was oèrried ansmitanualy←
