SPORTING. INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET HOUGETON MEETING.
WEDNESDAY•

The day after the Cambridgeshire is generally a quiet
one, but this year the unfortunate contretemps of the win-
ner's jockey not being able at first to draw his weight, and
the various pros and cons the subject has given rise to, has
tended to keep alive excitement, and some degree of un-
pleasant feeling. Lord Westmoreland, the ownor of the
second horse, lodged a format protest against the decision
of the Stewards, and the matter had- not been gone into by
the Jockey Club when our parcel was despatched.
Meanwhile the morning payment on the event was sus-
pended, and speculation throughout the day was languid in
consequence. The racing was of no particular interest,
and with one or two exceptions the fields were small. Lord
Glasgow's fortune was in the ascendant, he carrying off
the Stakes nanvid after himself with the Miss Sarah colt,
and the £5O Plate with the one by Barbatus out of Seno-
rita; but in his match with Lord Coventry Knowsley suc-
cumbed to Umpire, who chose to be in a good temper, and
won easily.

A long delay at the post, and an ultimately very bad
start, for the Private Handicap Sweepstakes, for three-yr-
olds, in which Juliet got an adtantage of some lengths, led
to an objection against her as the winner, which was over-
ruled by the stewards.

The 2-yr-old Handicap Sweepstakes fell to Attraction,
and Countersign carried off the Subscription Plate for 2 and
3-yr-olds from a field of rather moderate performers. Capt.
Christie was again fortunate with Lord Adolphus over the
T.Y.C. There was a good race between Ely, Beatrix, and
Mahometan as a finale to the proceedings, which was won
cleverly by Ely. The weather continues fine.

Optional Selling Plate of 50 says, for 3-yr-olds and up-
wards. Weight for age, with selling allowances. Cam-

where the two latter were beaten and dropped back, and

Vandervelde, Hypatia, and Soumise to the brow of the hill,
when the winner drew away, the French representative at
the same time taking the second'place, but without a chance
of reaching the leader, who won very easily by three lengths,
a like distance dividing the second and third; Wild Thyme
was a bad fourth.

evinced by the rider of Juliet to get away, the start was de-
layed half an hour. When Mr. M‘George lowered his flag
Juliet got away with a flying start of 10 lengths, Poland
going on second, with Lady Clifden, Cassidia, Paddy
O'Rourke, East Sheen, and Farfalla following, widely
spread, to half way down the Bushes-hill, when Paddy
O'Rourke obtained second place, but without any chance
of reaching Juliet, who cantered past the post half a dozen
lengths in advance of Mr. Robertson's horse, who was the
same distance in front of Casidia—Lady Clifden was
fourth, East Sheen and Farfalla, side by side, were next
Poland and Peignoir were the two last, the latter being

A Board of Trade inquiry into the circumstance©

wrecked near Cushendrin, on the Antrim coast, or.
the 18th of September, was commenced on Friday
Custom-house here.
at the The Ganges was the
property of the Messrs. Martin of this city, and was
bound from Stranraer, in Scotland, to Quebec, in
ballast. while in Stranraer the crew became in-
subordinate and refused to sail in the vessel, alleging
that she was not seaworthy. The captain (Mr.
Thomas Hoare) took them before the magis-
trates, who directed a survey of the vessel, which
proving satisfactory, they ordered the crew either to
proceed on their voyage or undergo 10 weeks' im-
prisonment. The Ganges sailed on the 12th of Sep-
tember and encountered very bad weather. At half
past 1 on the morning of the 18th the captain, who
had been constantly on deck for 36 hours, retired
to his cabin to take a little rest, having previously
satisfied himself as to the ship's position, arid di-
rected the second mate (David Skeagh), who had the
watch, not to alter her coarse without consulting
him. That officer, however, at half-past 2, ordered
the crew to wear the ship, and in doing so she went
upon the rocks. The captain, awakened by the
shock, rushed on deck, and accused the second mate
and crew of having purposely destroyed her. He
did everything possible to save the vessel, bat the
crew disobeyed him, and thought only of saving
their own effects. With the aid of the Coastguard
all got safely to shore. On Monday the members
of the Court, Mr. O'Donnell, police magistrate, and
Captains Robinson and Baker, announced that they
completely exonerated the captain, and the fault, if
there was any, rested with the second mate, who
was examined, and deposed that the statement of
the captain that he told him not to wear the ship
without calling him was false ; the order the captain
gave him was not to stand to the southward of a
particular headland, which the captain pointed out
to him before going below. The wind veered to the
south, and in order to comply with the order it was
requisite to wear. The captain (who received a
high character for ability and steadiness from the
Messrs. Martin) contradicted this statement in Coto.
The Court pronounced their decision yesterday,
acquitting the captain and suspending the second
mate's certificate for 6 months.
The Corporation yesterday granted a salary of
£lOO per annum to the city analyst, Dr. Cameron,
who is to hand over to the city treasurer whatever
fees he may receive from persons who employ him
in his public capacity. The Lord Mayor was also
authorized to purchase food suspected to be adul-
terated, and to submit it to him for analyzation.
The Athletic, one of the Atlantic Royal Mail
Company's fleet, sailed from Galway at 2 30 p.m.

Liverpool. The steerage passengers from Ireland
are all robust, healthy, young people, of whom only
