SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. THE LATE CHESTER AND FORTHCOMING YORK AND SALISBURY MEETINOs. TO TES MOTTOS OE TEM 11111118. 811,—The meeting at Cheater was favoured by brilliant weather, and sufficiently well attended to become a pretty good speculation for the loose ; still the sport, whatever improvementit may have exhibited compared with the last four years, hardly came up to what we ought to ex pect at a four days' meeting, and there was only about one event each day of more than passing interest. The coming together of Sawcutter sad Palestro in the Grosvenor, and of Royallien end the Vest colt in the Palatine Cup Stakes, hardly made up for the poor fields in what promised to be the most interesting Imes on the first day, and they would have gone off quietly but for a discovery that something was wrong with the Vest colt, which caused the lad looking after him to be t urn ed adrift at a moment's notice. What was really the matter, however, the public has not been en lightened on yet, and the race for the Chester Cup is not proof that there was any wrong done the horse, for up to the time Royallieu was disappointed, he run quite as well as Mr. Merry's crack, and at the finish he was not many lengths astern. There can be no doubt the Vest colt re ,ntires a strong-run race and • scope of ground, and the slow pace • t which the Palatine Cup was run for is quite sea erect to account for his defeat, as he does not pewees the necessary term of speed to 6 aish with—hence the opinion held after the City and Suburban that he could not stay, as there he ran well up to the distance, but went no fade: when called upon to finish. The Mostyu introduced a promising two year-old to our notice in Carnival, who will be heard el again, although the majority of those he beat were ad half so fit to run ; IMfflewatch, a good-looking wiry by Chanticleer, hung very backward , while Valentine was amiss. The Chester Cup was fortunate enough to attract twenty-three stereos to the post, of which the three-year olds were in a majority of one, but that was only a dummy, Tommy Jones merely being sent down to the start to was some bets made by his owner that he would start three. t ;odding's stable also started three, and the Frenchmen ran a couple ; still there were as many interests at slake when the twenty-two hones left the pod (Tommy Jones staying behind) as when the largest of fields contested the Chester Cup, aed only Simla (whom they could not succeed in bottling up effectually), the Pilot, and Agag, may be said to have started without the remotest chance. The lot did not get away in the beet of order. the principal sufferers by the poor start including Chore Arnie, Silkatone, and Zodiac; and although the Vest colt had a slight advantage over everthing, he was not allowed to make use of it, being instantly palled behind Oilier On, who made play at • fair pees nearly once round the course, when Wild Bee pulled to the front, and led them a merry dance peat the Stand • second time, where Agag and Simla were slopped. At thigint Caller Ou was still second, but was soon panel by ten and Carectecus, Mr. Suewing's home pulling so that Parsons let him up to Wild Rose, the pair racing together to the workhouse turn the last time at an improved parse, which disposed of Caller On, Feirwater, and the Weasel, who had all been in the front rank up to this time. Tim Whiffler and Brighton were now third and fourth, the next lot comprising the Vest colt, Sappho, the Longbow filly, Radii Stavros, Royallieu, Stampede, Silkstone. Chem Ataie, and Zodiac, who were all sufficiently forward to give their putimns some hopes. On making for the bet turn, however, one or two of the young lads were so eager that an accident occurred which might lave been fearful to contemplate, se after Caramelise bad given way to Brighton and Tim Whiffler, and dropped back into the nick, • succession of cannons ensued that settled his pretensions and those of many others. In the first place, something ran into Cloacae= and cut his leg slightly ; then the Long bow filly, who was on the extreme outside, as against Hadji Staines, and drove him against Stampede, who also rolled on to Chem Arnie. The four were running almost in a line, and the twolatter were nearly dose, Zodiac., Silkstone, and Boyallieu close behind them, having to stop until they had recovered themselves, although Zodiac was so handy that be could not avoid running with great force against the top weight. This contretemps, out of which it is surprising how Sappho and the Vest colt escaped, allowed this latter pair, with the three leaders, Wild Rose, Tim Whiffier, and Brighton, to get so far a-bead that .the race was left to the five ; and as Wild Rare had shot her bolt on reaching the turn, while Brighton and Tim Whiffler bad drawn themselves several lengths clear of everything, when fairly round it looked like a match between the two. This it actually was to the distance, when the light weight was beaten, and Tins Whiffler left alone in his glory ; all was not over yet, as the Vest colt rushed into the second place, and, answering gamely to Covey's call, got within a length of the leader a few strides from home. But here he was done, and the highest weighted 3-yr-old that ever won a " spring handicap " accomplished the vic tory without being touched with either whip or spur. The performance was an extraordinary one, and may be considered unprecedented, taking the time of year Into consideration ; for the Vest colt afterwards won the Stewards' Cup very easily when meeting Palestro at but 216 the best of racing weights, which was • great thing to do, seeing the latter beat Wallace over his own distance the other day. This latter circumstance will allow of my en tertaining the idea Tim Whiffler would have won in despite of the accident to so many of his opponents ; and wan he in the Derby it would not be necessary to look further for the winner, Mr. Jackson being particularly fortunate if he possesses a candidate even so good (many assert he is the superior) in Neptune'. The Vest colt has now proven him self an useful animal for Mr. Merry to measure Bockstone with, but the horses the latter met have been running so badly this season that it would not surprise me to bear some flee morning he has been foetid wanting, as in addition to Alvediston and Win grave running so badly in the Two Thousand, we had ell the gilt taken off Caterer's perform thee in the same reoe by Hubert's running in the Des Stakes at this meeting, which, if correct, would quite male the pretensions of Caterer, the Stockwell colt, and Not tingham for the blue ribaad, as Hubert fiddled close to these in the race at Newmarket. Brighton might have done the same had he been wanted ; and when a 3-yr-old can be discovered to give him Illb and a 7lb beating, the Two Thou. sand lot cannot be otherwise than bad. However, Hu bert's exhibition was too contemptible to be anything like correct, for he had Costa safe enough on paper (through Laughing Stock) ; and as be had evidently done little work, while the course did not suit him either, it will be better to ignore his doings here altogether, although Brighton's defeat confirms the idea the Two Thousand field was any thing but A 1. In the Dee Stakes, Alehymist ran a wretched coward, and Town Councillor was too back ward in preparation to have any chance, the latter, • stable companion of Tim Whiffler, striking ire as the beat looking of the lot that ran. The Fourth Biennial and Hooton Stakes winners, Formidable and Rape, are animals of good quality, Yr. Merry's especially, en may be guessed when the talents; were sooner to "get on for the Derby of 1863 ; and we shall see both Sweet Willie and Watford ' who were beaten easily by Formidable, doing good things some day, as they want • lot of time. The other events call for no remark, as they were only of interest to the looker-on, and failed to throw the faintest light on any forthcoming event. The York Spring Meeting is held on Tuesday and Wed nesday, seven races being fixed for each day, of which ten are already complete, the st promising to be very good. The Great Northern Han dica p, two miles, is the grand fea ture, and although Caractacus looks so formidable when called upon to carry 15Ib less than at Chester, be should have at least a dozen opponents, of which Ivan huff, Beverley. Zodiac, Prince of Denmark, Doefoot, Carisbrook, the Wizard, Silkstone, and Rapparee are the most threaten ing, unless matters can be arranged for Milverton's starting, when he will be worthy of the greatest respect. Rapparee has dove well this season, but can hardly be expected to givelvanhoff 31b, or more than two stone for the veer to :VII , . tone, Beverley, and Carisbrook, while the Wizard should be able to beat him at 17Ib when Stampede gave him 161 b in the Northamptonshire Stakes. Again, Happen* must be a superior animal to Asteroid to give Caractacus 351 b, over • course so admirably suited to the youngster's action, and Mr. Snoring must be considered very unfortunate if he cannot land this prize. Beverley and lvanhoff being the best of his opponents, and standing good chances for situations if they only apply for them. The Zetlarel Stakes has a fine lot of two-Jeer-olds, and as Ceriutha is penalised 71b, with the good-looking Bohemia allowed 21b, Lord Stamford may be compelled to bring out his new purchase, The Avenger, to oppose the latter, who will even then be most difficult to beet, seeing how well she ran at Doncaater and North ampton when very unfit. Welcome is about the beat candidate in the Craven Stakes, with all the weight ; Johnny Armstrong (in the probable absence of the Stock well colt) in the Spring St. Leger; and The Brahmin in the Knavesmire Plate, the running for this latter being likely to throw a strong light on the Londesborough Cup, which will bring out • large field on the second day. At present, however, Tisiphone, 3 yrs, :rat 10Ib, looks all over a winner, having rum a good race with Beckenham and Welcome in the Craven week at Newmarket, and there are Spi cebox and Virgilius nearly Si well in. The Zetland shou ld herald the winner of the Eglinton Stakes, and the Great Northern of the Flying Dotehmau's Handicap, the two hunters' stakes comprising the other event complete. The Salisbury programme is a good one, and difficult to meddle with several days beforehand, as the sport will be confined chiefly to the local stables, and they have not made their arrangements yet, several trainers haring four or five engaged in each of the events already closed. The Wiltshire Handicap, two mile:, is the principal race, and all I can notice is, that if the Dave cannot win it, the Roe being very leniently treated. we Shall have to look for Mr. Panes Dusk, with all the weight —I am, ho., METEOR.

AOLIDINTAL POIHOWING.-011 Friday afternoon, Mr. Bedford, coroner for Westminster. instituted an in quiry at No. 28, Lower Eatonatreet, Belgtave-square, into the circumstances attending the death ooff Mr. George Cor sham, aged 53, who died on Friday morning from the effects of poison. Mr. Davis, of Lower Belgrave-street, surgeon, the first witness examined, deposed that he attended the decayed profeesionally . for some years, and when he saw him alive on the morning of the 15th inst. he (the de ceased) complained of rheumatic pains in the joints ; but in other respects he was tolerably ' well, and not in the least danger. lie was called in to attend the deceased on Friday morning, when he found him suffering from the effects of poison. He tried the mad remedies, but he died in half an hour. He had 'applied the deceased with two descriptions of medicine, one to be taken internally, a morning draught, and the other an embrocation, composed of poison. He was told that the embrocation had been given to him by mistake. Miss Harold, the housekeeper to the demised, told witness herself that she had given the de mand the wrong medicine, and that she had made a mis. take. She appeared conf used. The embrocation was oom posed of tincture of belladonna. He considered that de ceased had undoubtedly died from the effect of it. Miss Louisa Harold said she bad been living two years with th , deceased as his housekeeper, and had attended him in all 1. different Means. The embrocation was used at various times during the course of Thursday night. At 7 o'clock she poured from the bottle at the bedside a glass of what she supposed to be the morning draught, and handed it to the deceased, who immediately exclaimed, " Why are you so cruel to me; why have you killed me" She then'disco vered that she bad made a mistake. She obtained assistance, and Mr. Foote immediately administered the usual remedies. The jury returned the following verdict :—" That the de ceased George Conham died from the effects of poison con tained in an embrocation administered by mistake for medi cine ; the party administering it not being aware that it eontained pceto, and no indication to that effect appearing on the bottle. Tun Psorosan RAILWAY BRIM'S AT BLACK.- nuAls.—On Saturday morning, in consequence of the re sult of a meeting of the Bridge House Estates Committee of the corporation late on Friday afternoon, which lasted nearly three hours, notice was given to the town-clerk to place upon the paper of business for Thnrsday'next a cation to the effect that the committee had agreed to re port in favour of permitting the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway directors forthwith to erect their railway ro bridge acss the Thames at Blackfriars, providing that the intended structure be a bridge of five arches (three in the water-way and one at each end on shore); and further, that it was the intention of the committee to ask the sanc tion of the court to their proposal, upon the day appointed for the next meeting of the corporation in Common Council saernbled. 1 [Advertisement.}-liounwaY's Pam—lA.l,4 aredation. —The accidental or constltntionei IllOilielli neemats the active performance of the ereameato= Men soon widermines the health unless same so else ivy be isidteta2l . _spet No one can act measly II ~—; balsamic in composition sir al ss ft mi tgerail Ss found equal to every ma g ma. lane et erer le In tate clandation or ere IPS IMO 1.11 SO Wawa, tai iris f i t s trand re err Mir lillimil . dm* , OtlllaL Theis Mk r raft out all impurities whiSTifes isil. =Woe Into the system. and brew roe" meal the moods of future crier THI QUADIVPLE ifilltan AT Awricassrait. The inquest on the late Mr. Mike wee ad- I journed from Friday to Botarday, when also the penmen were to be further examined before the magistrates. The nr pon who examined one of the murdered children of the priceless had not diacovered what kind of poison was used, and was to make a post-mortem examination of the other bodies. It was thought that some kind of narcotic bad been need. The allow where Mr. Mellor was murdered ere entered from South King-street. His office is on the second floor, and on the roe floor are two rooms moupied by Mr. Frederick Andrew, adisitor. The stain leading to the offices are wide ; and there are four sets of s tep s numbering 28 in all, ad four small landings, of which the upper most is the landing to Mr. Meller's °Mos on the second floor. On this landing than are only one or two drops of blood. This is the pine where Mr. Mailer was first skunk. Drops of blood were found upon the six steps leading to the next landing below, and there Mr. Moller appaan to have stumbled aping the baluster rail, his blood irlokltrg down the rail and dripping on to the ground floor. Down eight more steps he stumbled, and then on the fink floor landing, at the head of the next flight of stain, he appears to base fallen, the spot being marked by a stain of blood on the floor. Mr. Mailer struggled with hie sanilant, endeavouring with his hands to ward off the Mobs, and his hands aoaaqusntly were much cut. Mr. Keller was lying bleeding where he fell for the last time, when Mr. Leathernow, sad his porter Booby, found the body, and were raising it up just as the phonon came down the stain. The male prisoner pre sented his revolver at the head of Mr. Mellor, and fired ; the shot mired the deceased, ad piercing the right hand of Hooley, lodged in his right knee. When the pri soners were safely looked np, they both expensed the greatest concern for the safety of the porter Moony. The male pre ner, after his apprehension, said he much re gretted that he had not been able to kill Mr. Mallet's two eons. The dwelling occupied by the prisonees in Britannia bandage, (heat Dome-street, is one of a 'lumber of very Mae houses (with shop fronts), the rents of which are 50L a year. Fronting the street there is a lofty and spacious shop, which has been closed for some time, but was at first used by Taylor for the sale of .general provisions. This, house is four stories in height, and contains ten rooms, I besides the shop and cellars. All the rooms are lofty, and have been fitted up with marble chimneypieces, and (*petal sod ornamented in a su.perior style. The house is nevertheless •in • most desolate condition. , It doss not contain a single article of furniture of any I kind—no table, chair, or stool ; no bidding, not 68(0 dial/ • and the cupboards were found completely bare, there sot being a particle of any description of food. Thel house also bears traces of gross mistreatment The marble I were found dMed, the mess sad Wipe tries i ttrchipped with some bluM hisimeendi The meh and jambs of the doors had besa gad. Iran appearances probably with the very knife ULM Mailer was murdered with. The wainscotting in some the rooms had been similarly damaged. In the shop there were no articles of furniture or tirades, either in ths way of shelves, counties, or boxes. The bander rail was chipped and hacked all the way from the ground floor to the top of the liaise. The front room immediately over the shop had been papered with a white satin coloured paper, but was smaded in every part with soot and water, sad the door of this room was cut worse than any other, some of the panels having been cat completely through. When the detectives—Bateman sod Watson—entered the house, they were prepared to find something of a dreadful nature, but when they came to the room when the three little dead childrea lay as though _ sleeping side bY ' side, they were completely overcome, burst into team. Each child bad beat washed end dammed, sod lay the very picture of ineomace and beauty, but in the sleep of death. The children had white night-drasee on them • round the waist of each was a black sash, and a bit el black ribbon wee tied round the wrists and neck. The girls' hair, dark brown, curl naturally, but had been combed with unusual care. The hair of the little boy was lighter than that of his sisters, and it had been combed after death, into tufts on the centre of the head. The bodies lay on a bit of oarpetMg, the only frag ment in the house. The room in which tba children were found icon the left-hand landing, • few steps below the first floor. The windows of the house have very Lrae panes of glaa, but not one of these had been broken. The stair- came is lighted by a rained-Peas skylight. There had been two executions put into the house by Metier and Sons, the prisoners refining to pay rent on the ground of a set-off for 501. against the agents for lose arising out of alleged damage by the explosion before alluded to in our report of the murder, and which set-off Mesons. Moller would not allow. MANCHESTER, SUNDAY Evirmsta. In endeavouring_ to pan some light apes the antecedents of the prisoners Taylor and his wife the polies have ob tained possession of scene MS. books, chiefly account hooka, which were among the articles Mead the last time the murderer's goods were distrained by the house agent who has fallen • victim to his vengeance. The two pri omen and their ehildien appear to have lived in as much seclusion from all neighbourly intercourse as was possible for persona engaged in retail businees, and, since the closing of their provision shop, their retirement from all observa tion was so complete, that inquirers Mont their character or history were rather misled than answered by con tradictory versions of idle gossip. A statement that the fenude prisoner is now enceinte, whether for the first time or not, is the assertion of neighbours ; and the belief that she is the step-mother of the murdered children seems to rest on a possible conjoiners from her appearance, and her own declaration that the was 25 years old, while the age of the eldest child was said to be 12. At the funeral of the child who was killed by the explosion of • kitchen-boilder, 00618 months ego, the undertaker esys there was not • single relative of the prisoners present. By the books above referred to the pollee have an imperfect Me of the male prisoner's occupation as far back as April, 1860. Nothing of an earlier date is yet known of him here, but the nature of the entries may lead to further information being obtained. In the spring of 1860 William Robert Taylor (or as be appears to have invariably styled himself in business matters, "W. Taylor,") sem to have been a traveller in the south of England for a Mr. P. M. Hadley, for Messrs. Fraser and Thurkettle, and for other persons, apparently spirit merchants. Among the places named as having been vaulted by Taylor in h e i o ssocounts of travelling expenses are Exeter, Y Taunton, Sherburne and Lyme 'Regis. Afterwards, fora ew months, he must have kept a public-house at Bideford, North Devon. One of Lis books contains the names of persons by whom he was then 'applied with liquors ; for instance, " Norman and Woodcock, City Brewery, Exeter, March 4, 1861." The visit of an excise officer is noted, with the date, "April 26, 1861," in one of " Loftus's Spirit-Books," which is • ruled account book. Nothing farther is known of him before his coming to Manchester, and when be came has not been ascertained. He is believed to have been living somewhere in this city or the neighbourhood nearly • year ago. Of his wife the cooly trace is what may be con jectured from a hook which appears to have been used ori ginally as an exercimbook of some youthful student in arithmetic, whose progress ion manifest through addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, when, the book having been half filled, in the latter portion there is an interval of blank peps, and the rest contains a considerable number of pencil copies . of short musical pieces. On the fly-leaf at the beginning is an elaborate and boy-like inscription—"Jomph Gila, 1856." Some pencil notes at the bead of each of the sums (which are in ink) seem to have been written by • feminine hand, and likewise the copies of music ; and on a leaf at the end of the book, a female pen in some idle moment has written, among • num ber of apparently meaningless words and scratches, the fol lowing : Miss M. A. Giles, liatherleigh Farm, near Wincanton, Somerset," and below this three names, placed amrt from one another :—" Martha Ann Giles," " Mrs. Taylor," " Hannah Mari& Taylor." The same peculiar spelling appears in the inscription, " Hanish Mariih Taylor, 8 years of age," on the papers which were found attached to the bodies of the murdered children. The names and ages on them papers were written in • feminine baud ; while the inscription on the otheeside of each paper, "We are six, he.," is in • man's writing, bold but rather rough. The name of the female prisoner a " Martha Ann" Taylor. On one page of the exercise book is a rude childish drawing of • building which looks very much like a diasen ter'schapeL Along with the books were found whet seems to be an old daguerreotype likeness of • man and woman, , d e I unknown. his -- - untied. No doubt thus contained not only demands, but, TM. , threats ; and had they been opeoed— it la raiser that they were not—ths remen able ' on that they might have led to daps being taken to prevent the carrying out of any spirit of ma tte . It is neses, however, now to si=t on this mar.

DESPERATE MURDER IN LIMERICK. The Limerick correspondent of the Freeman's Journal, writing on Friday arming, says :—" I am sorry to be the medium to communicate to you one of the foulest and most deliberate assassinations that ever stained the fair -- repute of this or any other country. Up to the presents eight o'clock, vary meetly accounts of the diabolical deed have reached Limerick. As on all such choly occasions there is a great variety of versions dr tailed—each assuming the, foes and colour el the feel- Map and sentiments of the mansion ; but the particulars which I now telegraph to you you may rely upon as accurate. The scene of the bloody tragedy was • short distance from Kilmallook, which is a few mare from Bruit, end the victim was Frame Fitagerald, Fact., • gentleman poeseming some landed property in the neigh bourhood. The circumstances of the murder were truly cruel—they were basely hearties, !lessee, and desperate. At about 5 o'clock this evening Mr. Fitegerald was standing at his hall door in company with his Wife--411 •miabS and good lady—little thinking that 'his hour bad coma that be was ' • marked man the amassis pulled the trigger, and the ball pared through Mr. Icitsgerald's neck, leaving him almost indentantionaly a lifebms corpse at the feet of his wife. This was how the murder was committed. The cause—what could be the tense for such an infernal act!—the motive, the only one that rumour amigna—revenge —a bloodthirsty vengeance that is beginning to envelop the entire country, a desperate opendayoisfying reckless's= that seems to be inappeasable, and in its desperation spares DOM." A Kilmaßock oorrespondent of the same journal says: " Mr. Francis !Armenia, residing at Hill Cottage, Kil male* a landed proprietor in the neighbourhood, while walking with his wife, shortly after leaving a tenant's house, which, however. he left in friendship, was shot about four o'clock p.m. as he was near the public road from Oarrynoe to p.m, The canoe is be lieved to be agrarian. Two shots were fired at him — me went through hi windpipe, the other through hi left lung. Dr. O'Connell, of Kilmallock, was promptly in attendance, and rendered all possible aid to the wounded gentleman, who was thus enabled to make • deposition to the magistrates, John 0. O'Donnell, Fag., J.P., of Castleriew, on the next towniand, and Richard Orme, Fag., R.M. Mr. Fitzgerald expired about eight o'clock this evening. The constabulary are busily engaged in all directions searching for the annein." The Limerick Reporter says :—" We regret to learn tint Francis Fitzgerald, Eag., of The Cottage, Kilmaliek, late of Artiness', county Clare, was shot while walking wilt Mrs. Fitzgerald at four o'clock yesterday (Friday) meth& 1 6 appears that two men, well droned, came sp to him at tha Move hour and fired deliberately at him.

Mr. Fitzgerald had served notice to quit, we understand, upon some ineants and had received some threatening letter" LIMERICK, BATUIDAT NW The Munster Newt of this night gives the kink maw lan of the above outrage, from its special reponse. An inquest was held on the body this day. The wife of tfig deceased was examined, and swore that her husband corn shot in her presence, about half-past three o'clock yogic* evening, by two persons armed with pistols. One of the parties was arrested at four o'clock this morning, near Knocklong, and was identified by Mrs. Fitzgerald amonPt six or seven others who were brought before her. His name is Thomas Reckain, he is a returned convict, and was tried on a former occasion for a murder at Ballinabuich. Hie accomplice, who is a stranger to the neighbourhood, is not yet arrested. The foul deed was perpetrated within a mile of the residence of the deceased. From medical testimony, it appears that the deceased died four hours after the wounds were inflicted. The inquest was adjourned till this day week, when it is expected that other parties suspected of connivance will be made amenable. A conspiracy to murder is sought to be established. iLatu intelltstiut. MATLITAI °omit ootrzTa. Sitting days ROPO appointed for the present week. WiwraMigraa, St. MartitU•lanis.—Monday.
