LATEST SPORTING INTELLIGENCE

LATEST FROM NEWMARKET.
TO MT 10:111.01 OP PHI WPM&

Sue,--Surprises In plenLy have as yet greeted
those assisting at the Newmarket Craven Meeting, aad it
makes one shudder to think what money would have been
Ices upon certain events had the "plungers" boon on the
heath, eager for battle. The dulness of the betting on the
course, and in the subscription-room at night, is explained
by their absence ; and even when the sensational Bienaial
GUM on the tapis, or the vaunted Restitution wasbcaten by
the erst plater Moslem, the book-makers had the field of
speculation almost to themselves. The upset on the
Baron's pet oolt, a lumbering sort of gentleman in his way,
is scarcely in keeping with his reputed trial, in which he
bested the stable crack. If it were really correct, we
should have to look out for Moslem in the Two Thousand,
as Suffolk was not many len rths behind The Earl and
Blue Oown in the great race of this afternoon. It is
singular, lifter the extraordinary stories that had been afloat
of late concerning this trio just named, that they should
run so nearly to their previous form, the only falling off
displayed being on the part of Suffolk, whose exhibition
disposes of Baron Rothschild's charm for the Derby as
well as the Two Thousand. How The Earl won is a moot
point among the talent, some Insisting he left off with
plenty in hand. and others that Blue Gown would have
reversed positions with him had Wells not ridden him
so tenderly. The wearer of the cherry jacket, however,
was complimented by Sir Joseph Hawley on his handling
of the unlucky Champagne hero, and if be is Vtisaed the
public ought not to complain. The opinion was expressed,
too, that the Gown was not nearly fit, and that by the
Derby Day he would, But the eagerness to lay against
him was as marked as though he had run last instead of a
good second ; and seeing how the offers to take 1,000 to 30
five times, then 4,000 to 100, and finally, " fifty fifties,"
were snapped up, I must still think his backers have but a
poor chance of getting a good run for their money at Epsom.
To all appearances, those trusting to The Earl are just as
badly off, for, notwithstanding his performance is as credit-
able as was either Vauban's or Kangaroo's in the same race,
he was i 1 as bad odour after as before the victory, the
general verdict being that he, too, is out of court. On
what grounds is quite another matter, for he did not run
in the Marquis of Hastings's colours, hut in those of Mr.
" Kangaroo " Padwick, almost intimating that all oon-
nexion between him and Lady Elizabeth is severed. How-
ever, before the week is out the market and rumour may
afford additional information, and I must content myself
for the present with further remarking, in connexion with
the put two days' running and future great events, that
the Newmarket Handicap leaves the Chester Cup as open
as ever.

The remainder of the Craven programme to be got
through is of more immediate importance, and that can
soon be disposed of, for most of Thursday's awed races are
downright certainties, and " w. 0." will be marked against
some of the winners' names. Lord Stamford has a couple of
prizes at his mercy on the Aske Produce and a D.M. Sweep-
stakes, The Earl and Lady Coventry each having a "march"
too. Then, the Claret reads very like a gift for Fripon-
nier ; and Sister to Hermit for the Abingdon, with Herald
for another D.H. Sweep, are the proper selections. The
Four-Year•Old Biennial is a match between Vauban and
Julius ; and if the latter can win, as I believe, we shall
have Friday's Port settled, as the result must be a repeti-
tion of the other. Herald must win his first engagement
easily to successfully concede 51b to Charuwood for the
Bennington ; but Pace, bad (') as he is, need only come
about to stall off King Alfred for the 100 Sovs. Sweep-
stakes.— I am, lc., METEOR.

A " demonstration " in support of the movement
for admission of women to the franehise was held at the
Fre►trade Hall, Manchester, last night. The Mayor of
Salford presided ; and speeches were delivered by two
ladies, Mrs. Pochin and Miss Becker; by Archdeacen
Sandford, Mr. T. B. Potter, M.P., and Mr. Jacob Bright,
M.P.

Signor Stefanini, of Bracciano, has only just been
released by a band of brigands who held him prisoner
until a sum of 10,000 wadi was paid for his ransom. A
monk who goes from Rome every Sunday to Prime* Ros-
piglion's estate at Mainareee, to my man to the farming
men, was returning last week to the station on the Civita
Vecchia line, to get back to Rome, when he was
aectotod by three well•dressed and well-armed bandits,
who inquired whether the prince or either of his sons
were at the old feudal mansion, and seemed much disap-
pointed at not having an opportunity of effecting a coop
de twain on their persons.

The correspondent of the Post at Rome asserts
that the Emperor of Austria has refused to sanction the
new law tending to invalidate the Concordat. This deter-
mination of his Apostolic Majesty is attributed at Rome
to the influence of the Empress, to w►om, in her present
interesting situation, the Emperor could refuse no boon,
and who is said to have entreated her husband to refuse,
or at any rate suspend, his signature to the new law, at
the instigation of her sister, the Queen of N►ples, who re-
cently arrived at Vienna to be present at the Empress's
acoonehement, and who, if current rumours are as ocerect
as they are plausible, was entrusted on leaving Rome
with a confidential minion by the Supreme Pontiff to that
effect.

!MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.)
ONE O'CLOCK.

The markets for public securities are firm to-
day, with transactions to a fair extent, although
the dealers are partly engaged with preparations
for the fortnightly settlement to morrow. The
important advance yesterday in the French funds,
which was not generally known here during
business hours, has induced purchases.
Consols are in good demand, and have advanced
to per cent. Railway and foreign stocks have
not varied to any general extent, but exhibit an
upward tendency. Some of the American lines are
better.

There is a fair demand for money, at 11 to 111
per cent. for the best bills. The charge in the
Stock Exchange for short advances on English,

In the foreign stock market, Italian of 1861 and
Spanish of 1867 have improved 1 to 1 per cent.,
viz., to 471 to 1 and 354 to respectively. On
'the other hand, Turkish of 1865 have receded 1,
the present price being 34 to 1. Brazilian

The directors of the Oriental Bank Corporation
have issued their annual report, in anticipation
of the meeting called for to-morrow. The
net profit for the year, after providing
for all b►d and doubtful debts, is
175,5391., which, with the addition of 13,687/.
from thelast account, gives an aggregate of 189,2261.
for distribution. An interim dividend of 90,0001.
was paid in November last, and it is now
proposed to distribute a like amount, both free of
income tax. This will make 12 per cent. for the
year, and leave 9,226/. to be carried forward.

HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.

The stock markets are generally good. Consols
are strong at the above-mentioned improve-
ment. In the railway market, Caledonian, Lon-
don and North Western, Great Western, Midland,
South-Eastern, ►nd Great Northern A stocks
are } to i per cent. better than at 1 o'clock,
but Metropolitan is i lower. Foreign Mocks are
decidedly firm, and a rise oft to i has occurred
in Italian of 1861, Mexican, Peruvian of 1865,
and Turkish of 1865.

FOUR O'CLOCK.

Consols are quoted 93i to }, both for money and
the account, being about the same as at half-past
1 o'clock.

Some of the railway stocks are flatter. South
Eastern has declined 1 per cent., viz., to 741 to 1.
Caledonian is quoted 721 to 731, being 1 lower ;
Metropolitan, 112/ to 1131, showing • decline of
; Great Eastern, 341 to 3151—a reduction of ;
Midland, 1064 to 4—a rise of 4 ; Brighton, 511 to
521—an advance of 4, and Great Western, 514
to 1.
Fcreign stocks met with less inquiry. The Orel
Vitebsk Railway Loan is at 804 to 81 ; Turkish of
1865, 344 to : Italian of 1861, 47: to ; and
Spanish of 1867, 351 to /.
About 86,000/. in bar gold has been sent into the
Bank, while 10,000 sovereigns have been taken
out for South America.

At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Renter
opened at 69fr. 25c. for the amount, showing a
fresh rise of per oent.
About 4,0001. in bar gold was bought by the
Bank yesterday. There is no inquiry for bullion for
abroad, except for kinds suitable for refining pur-
poees.

In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon the
only alteration worth mentioning was a further
movement in the rates unfavourable to Italy.
It is expected that Mr. Milner Gibson, M.P.,
will be elected chairman of the (heat Eastern Reg-
way Company, in the room of Lord Cranborne,
who has been raised to the House of Peers by the
death of his father, the Marquis of Salisbury.
The South Eastern Railway traffic return shows

ing week of last year.
At a ballot y of the proprietors of the
Bank of , Mr. Thomas Newman Hunt
was re-e governor for the ensuing year, and
Mr. Robert Wigram Crawford deputy governor.
The adjourned meeting of the Caledonian Rail-
way Company was held yesterday at Glasgow, but
it is understood that no result was arrived at,
owing to the legal proceedings now pending. The
question as to the payment of the dividend recently
declared is left to the Court of Appeal.
An extraordinary general meeting of the Atlantic
Telegraph Company is fixed for the 28th inst., to

when the shareholders will be called upon to con-

eider end sanction an " amended working arrange-

The fifth annual general meeting of the share-
holders of the Imperial Ottoman Bank will be held
on the lith June, at the City Terminus Hotel,
Cannon-street.

The preparations yesterday for tomorrows set-
tlement showed that the bulk of the outstanding
speculation in the Stock Exchange is still in the
foreign stock market, where, accordingly, as much
as 5 to 7 per cent. per annum was given for loans.
As regards home railway stocks, the terms for
carrying over transactions to the end of the month

were not materially different from those current
on the fast occasion. Caledonian and Metropo-
litan stocks were chiefly wanted. Great Northern
A also became scarcer in the afternoon. The
following shows the terms generally quoted :
