SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

YORK AUGUST MEETING.-Tu R, DAY.

The withdrawal of General Peal on the previous evening
destroyed one of the most important features of the meet.
Though the Great Yorkshire Stakes, in which Blair
Athol and General Peel were engaged, was not an event
upon which general spectators betted, the Yorkihiremen
had their fancy, and many fancy investments as to the pos-
sible result of the meeting of the two animals were merle.
Notwithstanding the knowledge on Wedneedayevening that
" The General' would not take part in the race, the at-
tendance upon Knaveamire to-day appeared to be little
affected ; and with the large amount of racing for denisina,
the committee wisely commenced the sport at twelve o'clock.
This enabled the southern visitors, by the forfeiture of a
couple of events, to quit the city by the Great „Northern
express at 4.15. The weather during the day, with the
exception of a shower, was an agreeable contrast to it on
the previous day, being mild and genial. The opening race
was a walk over for Brindisi, and the Colt Sapling Stakes
was a match between Konig and King Arthur, the former
of whom, with odds laid on him, won easily. Though only
three ran for the York Cup, the meeting of
Caller t)u and Rapid Rhone created a great
amount of interest and much speculation. The pair
on the opening of the betting were nearly equal favourites.
The appeanuioe of " The Rhone," however, did not increase
confidenceof the supporters of Lord Glasgow, and Caller
On became gradually a better favourite, and wee finally
backed at evens against the field, and in some few instances
slight odds were laid upon her. The race was very spi.
ritedly contested from opposite the stand, where the three
horses were close together, and the Mahon mare won by
the shortest of beads. Sixteen came to the poet for the
Nunery Handicap, and the betting was confined principally
to Tilt, Tabetha Bramble, Lansdowne, and Wings of the
Wind, the latter of whom was favourite at 3 to 1, and won
very easily. Odds of 7to 4 were freely laid on Blair Athol
eget the five who opposed him for the Great Yorkshire
Stake., which, like many previous years, resulted in the
success of an outsider in the shape of Miner, who, contrary
to public form, not only defeated Ely, to whom be suc-
cumbed at an earlier part of the meeting, but also beating
Blair Athol mealy. After the race, however, Blair Athol
became a little worse favourite for the Leger, whilst Miner,
from 100 to 6 came ieW such favour that 10 to 1 was
fieally the highest prase obtainable. The remainder of the
racing will be found below :
