SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

ASCOT MEETING.—WaDr4 =DAY.

The distressing }away accident on the pukes evening
had ea evident effect upon the attendance, and notwith-
deeding the premised attractions of the Royal Hunt Cup
there was a decided falling off in the strength of the general
company. The betting ring and grand steed were well
filled, but severed coormicona =mien of the bookmaking
fraternity were &besot owing to severe shakings, injuries, or
shooks to their nervous systems. During the morning and
in the intervals between the ruse the accident engrossed
conversation, and some moat painful amount'
were current am to the horrible mine of mutila-
tion. Indeed the mad occurrence mat • gloom over the
royal meeting, and will long be remembered as • most
mournful incident in COODOIIOI2 with the racing season of
1864. The weather, although somewhat unpromising to
the early morning, turned out beautifully fine, the sun
'hieing brilliantly over the Heath, mad lighting up the
luxuriant foliage of the surrounding landscape. Contrary
to expectation the Prince and Princess of Wales were sot
present, but the Royal Stand was occupied by members of
the Royal Household. As yesterday, the card combined
no fewer than ems items for decision, and the sport
throughout the day IF • most abundant, sod, on the
whole, interesting character. The first race we, appointed for
L3O, and the last at 5.45, • prodigality of racing which
became almost wearisome, sem among these profeseiooally
concerned in the meeting. Punctually to time the
saddling bell rang out for the Visitors' Plate, which
opined the beeper with the reepeelable field of ten roman,
and the backers showed court judgment in their chows,
as Jessie, Privateer, and Oldminster, the taut, eircood, and
third, were supported for most money, Hr. Savile's horse
being favourite at 3to 1. Oldminater made am steeliest
linen, but be is an arrant "rogue," sad more than once in
the race tried to "cut it ;" and even in the Queen's Vase
yesterday he refused to try • single yard of the ground.
The Corooation Stakes brought oat six fillies, and Breese,
second in the One Thousand sod Oaks, was, of
coarse, made an immense favourite by the
followers of public form and the Lyon of the 5 to 2 were
sever to suspense, as the Baron's mars came away from
her opponents directly Wells called upon her, and won in a
canter from Auricula. The Await Derby, usually a hollow,
empty affair, was woo by Peon—an own brother to
Stampedo— the finish with the Cases colt being eery close
and istimettag, Mr. Alexander's good.loottiog son of Alarm
winning, after • splendid "set to, by • head. Peas wee
at one time backed at outside prices for the late
Derby, but was struck out through having gone amiss.
Tim Hunt Cup, the grand attraction of the day, was ap-
pointed for 3.1:7i, and the large held anticipated rendered it
neceseary that the bueiuma weighing and smile.- shotdd
be vigorously pushed forward, and when the telegraph
board was exhibited it showed the large number of 34 run-
ners out of the 62 animals " coloured on the card."
The preliminary canters of the squadron were watched
with the usual hateful, and, to the satisfaction of
the spectators, there was little delay at the post, the
hones being despatched on capital terms. Bettie&
Ist the finish, was chiefly noticeable to the great favourite=
of Eyeliner, who was in such strong demand that she left off
at 7to 2 taken freely. The next in demand were Olivia,
Beverley, Exchequer, and Amelia, and the last men-
tioned, who is " • jade," and will not " try," was treated to
a bottle of whisky before going to the post ; bat this anti.
temperance proceeding had no effect upon her, although Ler
veteran trainer (Jobe Scott) declared that she could win in
a canter if she would only make an effort. The race will
be found below, and it is mfficieet to state that Gem of the
Sea in the middle of the coarse was dangerous from the
moment the long line of hone" came in sight, and being
joined at the Stead enclosure by Crisis, the pair came away
clean by themselves, and Gent of the Sea hanging Somme
Mr. Merry's filly, the latter was beaten • Deck.
On returning to scale, G. Sopp, the rider of Crisis, objected
to Gem of the Sea as the ground of foul riding, sad the
cue was afterwards goat into by the steward; who decided
that Crisis was entitled to the cup. Gem of the See is
trained by Goodwin, of Newmarket, and is mother of the
importations from the Emerald Isle, the " Irish Brigade"
having last season sent us such formidable entegosiate aa
Union Jack, Caroline, and Blarney. Evelio; the (eremite,
finished third, beating Balloon • head for the homoure et •
situation, while Excbequr and Cameo/tee ran promi-
nently, Lord Coventry's hone being prudently stopped
when it was found he could not win. Niue ran
for the FerchiU Sykes, wherein Attraction proud herself
evincible over • half-mails coulee. The Twelfth Ascot
Tnentual Stakes brought out thirties runners, Komi( being
made • great favourite, but he was beaten by the reenish
Tennysoo, whore noble owner only speculated • " pone at
20 to 1 as the son of Ethelbert and Maud (late Polly Jobs-
moo). Odds were betted on Deception for the T. Y.C. Sweep-
stakes, which brought out halt a dozes cotopetiton. Game-
cock madeali the running,and woo easily. He was subsequently
claimed by Lord Weetnaorland, but we believe the claim was
made for some other person. The excellent form shown by
Bane Rothaohild's hone caused the " West" to freely
support Tomato, who was opposed by Baragah, Maoris;
Hollyfox, and Outlaw (who ran in the Derby), and Ourilla.
The two repressetativss of John Scott's stable made • good
race, Baragah, the entrusted one, eventually winning.
The final race, which was run three-quarters of en hour be-
hind time, produced • fine finish with Antidote, who beat
the favourite by • seek. Then was very little betting on
the Cup, for which Lord Chides and Scottish Chief reigned
favourite; Little Stag, however, receiving considerable
at 100 to 15. The following are details of the

Biros leruot's Vuorr TO PARIS. —" Argus" of

ventures of Blair Athol es route to the most citilmed capital
in Europe, by which it will be see, what a Aoe chases the
Derby winner had of preserving his laurels, and what Milo
encouragement is given to English bones to cross the
Channel. "Blair Athol left Meik !them at 6 o'clock oe

When he arrived the,. Mr. l'Anson found the

10 o'clock the following morning, and arrived at Boulogne
at IL3O. On bit arrival there his misfortunes war* not
over, as the railway authoritits refused to convey him by
dm train which ran in oonnexioe with the boat, and he
was renmadorl back to his stables. To prevent him gable(
rusty he was galloped on the Boulogne raoscoane, which is
about at hard at this season of the year as Park•lape. The

Yr. Sharpe.

It appeared that the primmer kept a coffee-shop at Duni.

s man named French, and several other parents were
them and a conversation took pleas upon the subject of
°emend Garibaldi and the Pops sad French made nee of
eery amain expremios at reference to the latter. The de-
mand inked Freed what harm the Pops had ever dine to
him, and said that he might to be ashamed of himself for

French to come out and fight him, and the prisoner etre*
at him, and after some further altercation the prisoner
throw a chopper at the demised, which struck him on the
knee, and inflicted an injury which in the result caned his
death.

The defence that was set up for the prisoner was, that
when he threw the chopper he had so intention to ranee
any eerie*. =Wig( bibs deceesed,and that the occurrence
wee to a sirloin extent of as accidental character. _ _

iriToaTe ;;;;;-.. men aid to
many, sad be was sestswed to four mouths' imprisonmest
and hard labour ; the learned judge observing that he thought
it was very probable that he did sot !stead to cause the
fatal result that had taken place but still Wowing a
chopper at any roe was • meet illegal and improper wt, and
it was very ssosmary that it should be knows that say
perms who committed such an act was responsible for all
the cosmogonies&

John Coiling, 26, was charged with the manslaughter d
Daniel Cahill.

W.SietelProsecuted ; Mr. Sharpe wee conned for the
prisoner.
This occurrence took plan. in King-street, Drury-Lae, at
twelve o'clock at night, on the 9th of April. The prisoner
wee eating some oysters at • barrow, when the dammed at-
tempted to pass him, and complained of his blocking up the
footway. This led to • fight, during which the deewad
complained of having been stabbed, and it was found that
be had received • wooed in the neck. He was
taken to King's College Hospital, where, for some
time, he appeared to be going on favourably, and
he gave his evidence before the magistrate upon • charge
that was at first made against the primmer of having Mo.
Dioutly wounded him. After the primmer had been owe-
mined upon that charge, it appeared that the deceased
exhibited some unfavourable symptoms, and an abscess
formed in his throat, which caused suffocation, this
absoem being, in the opinion of the surgeon, the result of
the injury that bed been originally received by the prose-
cutor. The prisoner appeared to have admitted that be
knocked the deceased down, but denied having made use of
• knife. The surgeon, however, expressed a positive
opinion that the wound wee occasioned by • knife, or some
cutting instrument, and that it could not have been caused
in the way suggested, by falling upon • stone, and this opi-
nion was materially confirmed by the fact that • knife,
covered with blood, was picked up close to the spot when
the affray occurred.
Mr. Sharpe said he meld not deny that the prisoner was
amenable to the therm of manslaughter, inasmuch as the
death of the deceased was the result of his illegal act, but
be was instructed that no knife was made nee of, and he
called three witnesses who said that they saw the whole
fight from the commencement, and that it was • perfectly
fair one, and no knife or other weapon was made ato of by
the prisoner. These witnesses also stated that it was the de-
ceased who struck the first blow.

111r7iusti;•oOmptoo,ii;siiroming up the case to the
jury, said that supposing they should come to the couclusion
that the prisoner wee guilty of manslaughter, he should be
glad if they would inform him whether they were of
opinion that the injury wee occasioned by a knife or by the
fall, as it would make a very material difference in the
character of the crime whether a deadly weapon was used,
or whether the death was the result of a fair fight.
The jury found the prisoner Ovilty, and at the same tiros
said they were of opinion that the injury was caused by
stabbing.
The learned judge, in passing sentence, said be 4uite con-
curred in the verdict of the jury, and there could be no rea-
sonable doubt that be had caused the death of the deceased
by the use of a deadly weapon, which was a most serious
offence, and, as he had before stated, one that must be re-
pressed by severe punishment. He then ordered the prisoner
to be kept in penal servitude for ten years.
(Before the Common Serjeant.)
Benjamin Broom, 42, labourer, was indicted for fele-
nionely assaulting Ketttrah, his wife, and causing her bodily

Rodeo' prosecuted.
It appeared that the prisoner and his wife and son wen
together at home on the Bth of May, when some wards ernes
between them. The woman was peeling potatoes, and the
prisoner was toasting a piece of bacon. when the latter 'eked
his sou, a youth of 14, to read the paper to him. This the
sou refused to do, saying that he could not understand the
hard words, and that his mother would not explain them
to him. A quarrel then took place between the woman and
the prisoner, when the latter up with his fiat sad gave her a
blow in the eye, the effect of which was to bunt the peel
of the eye, so as to reader her completely bleed, for it sp.
that she wee previously blind of one eye, which bad
knockedCri
out about two years previously by the pri-
soner.

The prisoeer, in &teem mid that when be struck his
wife she had a knife In ber band. and it was that which
had entered her eye and CllOllOl the injury. She had aura,
rated him very much.
The jury found him Owilty, and the Common Serjeant
sentanoed him to six month's' imprisonment.

Michael Marchand, 26. was ladiated for a highway rob-

This was an ordinary case of shoplifting. The prisoners
had gone into the shop of the prosecutor, who is a draper in
Greenwich, and while there Barrett had congealed the cloth
node, her cloak.

Yr. F. H. Loyal prosecuted.
It appeared that the proseentrix, who resides at Kee-
*Witco, was about to go into the country, sad on the 110th
of May • card was put in the window, so that the carrier
might mU for her box that being the system employed at
liensington when the carrier wu wanted. The card bad
not been up long when the male prisooer knocked at the
door, and said that he had come from Johnson, the carrier,
when the servant gays him the box to take to the station,
believing him to be sent by the carrier. The box was
afterwards found in his possession, and many of the clothes
the female prisoner was wearing at the time of her appre-
