SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

ALL'S.-3lownAv.
More business was Td
ReS to-day than for some weeks past ;
in its extent, however, consisted its importance, as few altera-
tions resulted. Bokhara was the " lion" of the day ; he was
backed eagerly at '22, and afterwards at '2O to 1, the closing
offers being only IS to 1. Muley Ishmael and Brother to
Euclid were in considerable demand ; but very little was done
on Warden, and the inclination to bet against the Angelica colt
was much stronger than when last we " reported progress."
The only 'bet we heard agst Latincelot was 1000 to 45 ; he was
scarcely mentioned after the first hour. The betting against
outsid.ers was unusually animated ; 1000 to 15 was taken six or
seven times about Morgan Rattler (the closing offers 50 to 1),
2000 to 30 (twice), 2000 to .35 (twice), and 2,000 to 40 (two
or three times), about the Primrose colt, 1000 to 15 (two or
three times) about Gambia, the same odds, and as often about
May Boy, and 3000 to 40 about Ottoman. The only Oaks bets
we. heard were 12 to 1 agst and 13 to 1 agst Pocahontas, in one
bet. A very busy afternoon closed as follows:

IMPORTANT TO PERSON-
S'. eeNkl tk KI N 0 THEIR
OWNWILLs.—Two cases have recently been decided in
the Prerogative Court relative to the execution of a will
under the Act of Ist Viet., cap. ....
G which
the
it
that "every will shall be in writing, and
asienhetdreqatuitrhees
head or foot thereof by the testator ;n h
signiture shall be made or acknowledged by him
presence of two or more witnesses present at the trirn tl7
In the one case (referable to the goods of Miss Bli;i:
spinster, deceased), the testatrix had signed her will,
although not in the presence of witnesses. She after-
wards, however, acknowledged the signature in the pre.
sence of two witnesses, but at separate times, and apart
from each other. In the other case (referable to the
goods of William Millard, deceased), the testator had
written his will on two sides of the paper, but had
signed it, together with the attesting witnesses only on
the first side, the signature being consequently not
"at the foot or end thereof." In both cases the pro-
bate was refused by Sir Herbert Jcnner (the Judge of
the
of
Prerogative
theA.
.c
. Court)t on the ground that the provi-
sions had not been duly complied with.
These two cases present the first formal decisions on
the subjact of the execution of a will under the new
Statute.
