SPORTING INTELLIOBNCE.

Davow Artn2xvrau Rkcvii.—Attempts. are -again being
made to re-establish these once favourite races. - - The
committee, considering that the distance of the old course
on Haldon- from the city world risk the success of the
gathering, have secured a suitable piece of around near the
Exruirister station of the South Devon- 'Railway. Sir
Lydston Newsham met Mr. Harding, the chairman of the

'committee, on Tuesday, and per'Sonally inspected the
proposed course, of which he expressed his approval, and at
once consented to act as one of .the stewards. " Mr. Gard,
one of the city members, has put down his name for £35,
and alrea3y a considerable sum has been collected. The
meeting will, most likely, take place in Angnst, or early in
September.

WYE RACES.—This pretty little meeting will take place
on Wednesday next, and though, unfortunately, clashing
'with the second day of Bath, we have little Sear of its success.
The South Eastern Company has announced an excursion
train to Wye and Canterbury for the occasion, at very
moderate fares, which, we hav'e no doubt, will be well
patronised, as the route is through the most beautiful part of
Kent. The special will start from London Bridge, at half-
past eight in the morning, and return from Wye at a
quarter to seven in the evening.
MANCHESTER 59. ND NEWTON.—The handicaps for Newton

THE IRISH. TURF ann.—At a meeting of the members
of the Turf Club, held in Kildare on the last day of the
April meeting, the subject of the removal of the Club to
Dublin was brought under discussion, when the following
propositions were ordered to be ballotted for before dinner on
Tuesday of the next Currach June meeting :—Proposed by
the Marquis of Conyngham, and seconded by Christopher
St. George, Esq., "That the Turf Club shall in future meet
in Dublin, during each race meeting." Proposed by Wm.
Quin, Esq., and seconded by John Courtenay, Esq., " That
considering the many inconveniences that would arise from
a removal of the Turf Club of Kildare to Dublin, we are
of opinion that such alteration would be highly inexpedient
and detrimental to the general interests of racing."
THE RUTLAND ARMS, NEWMARRET.—This old established,
and _favourite hotel has lately passed into the hands of Mr.
Thomas Bacon, who has obtained a lease of the premises
from the Duke of Rutland: For some time past it was
carried on by a company, under the superintendence of Mr.
Bacon, late of the Ship-hotel, Greenwich, and the excel-.
lence of the taanagement, added to the comfort and
character of the accommodation and entertainment, was
most satisfactorily tested during the coursing reunions in
the winter, and the recent race meetings this spring.
The price of Enfield was £1,600 it appears, with a con-
tingency of an additional £3,000 should ho win the Derby.'
The toyal stud and Mr. Greville's yearlings are announced

THE WIRRAL 'COURT LEET.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES

Sir,—ln your report of the proceedings of this
court, you represent the Steward as having said that
the appointment of constables by the magiatrates,
was of no consideration. This is an error. The
Steward expressly said that the appointment rests
with the magistrates until the Court Leet exercises
its power of appointment, and he quoted the Parish
Constables Act, from the operation of which Cheshire
is exempted, thus leaving the jurisdiction of the
Court Leet as at common law. Will you be good
enough to correct this mis-statement ?—I am, yours
Respectfully, WHITTAKER EDMONDSON, Reeve.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.—The ulcers,
tumours, pimples, and discolorations of the skin, which arise
from impure blood, ill-regulated secretions, or some heredi-
tary taint, often defy science, but can never long resist the
action of Holloway's Pills and Ointment. Ladies accus-
tomed to apply astringent lotions to eruptions on the face,
breast, and arms, should be warned that no practice is mare
dangerous. They throw the disease inward, and put life
itself at stake. The only really safe and effective cosmetic
ever yet prepared is Holloway's Ointment, which, assisted
by his pills, will subdue the most obstinate cases of skin
diwase,
