SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER
MERTlNG.—Thearmr.
THE GREAT aseßElnTat DAY.
The interest is the Cesarewitch Handicap, awl the im-
mense amount of betting thereon, attracted to the heath
me of those monster assemblies brought together when any
gnat turf event is to be &aided. Moreover, the occasion
wee especially notable from the fact of his Royal Highness
the Prince of Wales, the King of the Greeks, Prince
Christian of Deamark, and the Duke of Cambridge honour.
lag the heath with their presence. The visit took the town
by surprise, but it is needless to say that the pretence of the
heir to the throne and his august relatives gave the liveliest
netiefaction. The royal party arrived by special train, con-
aintiag of two carriages end a break van, at 25 minutes past
1 o'clock. Five hacks were in attendance at the railway
Melia', and the illustrious visitors having mounted, rode off
to the heath, where they were greeted with an expression
of loyalty evidently most gratifying to them.
The scene in the High-street in the morning was most
animating, the front of the rooms being completely blocked
with vehicles and pedestrians.
Betting upon the great event presented no marked fee-
tare, but Limier and Demmer Boy were in immense
demand, as little as sto 2 being taken at one time about
Mr. Merry's mare. On reaching the heath speculation was
continued. but with no fresh demonstration except that
already alluded to.
Toe royal visitors, we regret to add, were not fortunate
in the weather, foe the atmosphere dialog the afternoon
was doll and heavy, and rain fell at intervals. The Prins
of Wales and the young King were, however, indifferent to
the wet, and galloped about apparently much interested in
the proceedinip of the day. A. abort time before the
Owarewitai was run the Prince sad the reminder of the
party went up to the top of the principal stead, in order to
wither the finish of the Csaarewitch. Admiral Roos ex
plaiani to the young visitors the peculiarities and customs
if the heath, with which they seemed highly interested.
The Cosaroodch was appointed for half-past 2 o'clock,
and as the time drew near (or its celebration' the excite-
meet became very great. Lioness continued Ent favourite to
the finith, 3 to 2 being taken freely about her, while
Drummer Boy advanced to 4 to 1, and Emblem, Jack of
Hearts, and Umpre also exhibited an upward tendency.
Liasseins, shoat whom as little as 4 to 1 was teen on Satur-
day last, declined is a strange nenter towards the close of ,
the betting, for ems of the largest bookmakers suddenly
*Eared 12 to 1 to a large amount spinet her. The race will
be found fully described below, but we may state brae that
Lioness fully justified the extmordieary confidence of
Mr. Merry and Mat Dawaoo, for she had won at any moment,
and coming away with Lamina the two finished the
race between them, Limes winning, without her jockey
galling upon her, by three-quarters of a length. Jack of
Hearts finished third, as he did in the Goodwood Stakes.
The Drummer Boy, of whom such high expectations were
entertained in communise of his trial with Macaroni, dis-
appointed his puttee= dreadfally. He sever me showed
• the race, but in fact nothing could have had a chases
with Limes, as oho won in a motor, thus reviving the
memory of Mr. Merry's halcyon days with Saunterer, Thor-
=why, and other well-known niceborm. The result of the
yam is of coarse dimistroes to the bookmakers, Mr. Merry
himself having won something like 15,0001.
After the ram Mr. Merry was introduced by the Duke of
Cambridge to the Priam of Wales, who afterwards carefully
senitinimed the mare, expressed his high approval of hey
and onegratoleked her owner on his good fortune.
The royal party Merged to town shortly after 4.40, the
