SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

LEAMINGTON AND WARWICKSHIRE
HUNT MEETlNG—Tfloasnax.
Nothing could excised the cioaheion with which the WI
day of the Warwick meeting commenced. No order of
running was made known oversight, sad as the sport bap*
much earlier than expected, 10.20, neither weigher ace
many of the jockeys were in time, and the opening wrest,
the match, wu decided, in presence of a meagre attendance.
Bain fell heavily all night, and the course was very heavy
" ping." The morning was raw sod cold, but wet held off,
except a little occasional, drizzling, the greater portion of
the day. The first three races produced mineably small
field., the Winding-up Handicap only bringing out three
from the nineteen entered. It was wily won by Lady
Bohan, purchased at Shrewsbury by Mr. Barber.
Thais and Herschel were the only two absentees
of the nine for the Shorts Handicap, which
was won by Tragedy, who enabled Jemmy Grim-
shaw to score three winning mounts in succession. A plate
for 3.y rolds and upwards had four runner' from the
13 coloured. The betting and the result was entirely eon-
fined to Deception and Belle of the Ball, Morris, oa Lord
Westmoreland's mare, jut beating the popular light weight
by a short head. The Two-Years-Old Plate fell to Black-
bird having, by mistake of the printer, been entered
foe the Three-Year-Old Plate, and not for this race, was ob-
jected to by Jemmy Grimebaw, who was only beaten a neck
on the favourite Hecate; the objection, however, was serer en-
tertained. Gamma easily defeated My Mary ( who seems to
have lost all form) and five others. and Stockings, having
won the Shakespeare Handicap for hia new owner from his
nitre oppoisents, seem ran for the Handicap Sweepstakes,
the last list race of the season which, was won by Jemmy
Grimahaw on Dawdle. The steeplechase brought out nine
runners, nearly all of whom were backed, the worst fa-
vourite of those invested upon, Portland, winning a fine race.
Hall Court recompensed those who followed him for the
disappointment he met with on the previous day, and Cle-
ments won the Hurdle Race. The last event was • match

self through the head. It appears that the deceased gen-
tleman went to bed on Tuesday night apparently in his
usual state of health. He rose at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning, and proceeded to his dressing-room. Is about
half an hour afterwards the members of his family were
alarmed et hearing the report of a inn ; and on going into
the dressing-room they were horrified to god Colonel Ten-
nant lying an his chair quite dead. A donble-barrellect gun,
with which he had destroyed himself, lay on the floor by
his aide. The unfortunate geetleman had evidently put
the muzzle of the gun into his mouth, and then pulled
the trigger. One of bis jaws was completely shattered.
The other barrel of the gun was found to Its loaded and
capped. Two doctors were immediately seat for, but on
them arrival they found that life eras extinct. No muse
has been assigned for the commission of this terrible act.
It bad been observed, however, that for some days pre-
viously the unfortunate gentleman was rather melancholy
and depressed in apirits.—Saunders' News.
