SPORTING NOTES.
NTHE WARWICK AN (D. I?,N
.DIINGTON STEEPLE-
CHASES

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sia,—As- I remarked in yesterday's note, my pre-
diction concerning the Great Warwickshire Handicap,
made on Friday last, was all but verified to the letter;
for had it not been for Waterfall obtaining the second
place, I should have accomplished the rather clever feat
of placing first, second, and third; as it was, Doubt,
whom I placed first, won very cleverly from Waterfall,
and Ethelwolf, whom I placed second, was third;
Cnteus, my fancy animal for the third position, running
home a good fourth. - My selection for the Two Years
Old Stakes ran home first and third; not without a dead
heat, however, on the part of Catherine Hayes and the
Libel colt, whieh was more the result of good riding
than equality on the part of the latter.
The field for the Grand Annual Steeplechase run to-
morrow, will, I understand, consist of the following:—
Peter Simple, Oscar Bourton(d), Carrig, Warner, Half-
and-Half (d), St. Helier, Maurice Daley, The Young'un
(d), Dollys Brae, and The Treasurer. My opinion
with respect to their chances is unaltered—PETEß
SIMPLE, OSCAR.and MAURICE DALEY to be first, second,
and third: Dolly. s Brae and Ninon with Carrig heading
the ruck.
The acceptances for the Free Handicap Steeplechase
are to be declared before seven o'clock this evening to
Mr. Merry, of Warwick- street, Leamington. I have
ascertained that Melford, The Young un, Spectator,
Voyager, Silent Friend, The 'Screw, Flight, Bendigo,
Linda, Slattern, Kiss-me-quick, and several others of no
account. are those that will be struck out. The field may
possibly be cemposed
.of--Victress, Frank,- Tally-ho,
Gulnare, Mystery, Widow Machree, Jane Oaks, Orange
Girl, Buscot, and perhaps another. The race, as I ob-
served before, will lie amongst VICTRESS, Tally-ho,
Gulnare, and Widow Ilfachree, and, as I have placed
them, so they staed.in my estimation.
.The starters for the Hurdle Race I am not
very possitive about, , but think the following
list will comprise the lot, viz. :—Combatant, The Drags,
Half-and-Half, Bullfinch, Ormsby, Tom Bowling, Lod-
dington, Scavenger, and perhaps Cosachia, and Choris-
ter. I see nothing to beat HALF-AND-HALF, if meant;
and anticipate a good struggle tor second place between
Combatants The Drag, and Bullfinch.
The Hunt Steeplecna43 and Scurry Handicap do not
close till seven o'clock this evening.
The betting on to-morrow's events has, for the most
part, been confined to two or three horses for each race;
the following are the latest prices:—
Grand Annual Steeplechase-4 to 1 agst Oscar, sto
1 agst Peter Simple, and 6 to 1 agst Maurice Daley; 10
to 1 offered agst any other: Free Handicap-4 to 1
agst Victress (taken freely), 5 to 1 agst Frank. 5 to 1
agst Gillnare,'6 to 1 agst any other. Hurdle Race-2
to 1 agst Half -and-Half (5 to 2 taken), 5 to 1 agst Bull-
finch, 5 to 1 apt The Drag, 6 to 1 agst Ormsby, 8 to 1
each agst Tom Bowling and Scavenger.
I intend to review the Northampton Meeting to-
morrow.

prece-
dent. The visitors commenced arriving at a quarter
past twelve o'clock, andWwanted but a few minutes
to three, when the last carriage drove .up Cork-hill.
Since the year 1842, when Earl De Grey, as the first
Viceroy under the-Peel 'Ministry threw open the Castle
gates to 'the long excluded Conservative party, there
has not been such a " crush" ;within its ancient walls.
The visitors exceeded 1,760, the list of names filling
three .closely printed columns of the morning papers.
Not za.single Bishop: or minor dignitary of the Roman
Catholic Church was present at yesterday's ceremonial.
Evening had far set in before the streets resumed
their ordinary quiet.

EXECUTION OF ELIZABETH PINCICABM—NORTH-
roirTorr, MARCH 17.—This wretched woman, who was or-
dered to be executed at the late assizes, by Chief Justice
Jervis, for the horrible murder of her mother-in-law, an old
lady nearly 70 years of age, in November last, near Daven_
try, underwent the dreadful sentence yesterday morning, at
the county gaol in this town. The culprit, we understand,
made a full confession of her guilt to the authorities of the
