SPURTING INTELLIGENCE.

LATEST BETTING AT MANCHESTER.
YESTERDAY.

The Goodwood gathering having absorbed all the
principal speculators, it was little better than a blank
day at the rooms. The only horses in force for the
Stakes were Hobby Horse and Joe Miller. Pelion was
in strong demand for the Cop at the price quoted ; and
West Australian and Cineas were the only horses backed
for the St. Leger.

GOODWOOD RACES.-TIIESDAY.

A very lowering morning ushered in the Goodwood
meeting, and threw over it an air of dulness, which not
even the abundant programme of sport could altogether
dispel. Heavy clouds surcharged with rain swept across
the park, and occasionally distributed a portion of their
contents, rendering the day sufficiently uncomfortable,
without being actually wet. The company, which
scarcely reached a numerical average, was composed
chiefly of gentlemen— the patrons, amateurs, and pro-
fessionals of the turf. Only a few ladies appeared upon
the Grand Stand. In that portion of the building re-
served for the exclusive occupation of the Duke of Rich-
mond was observed the noble proprietor, who every
lover of sport regrets to learn has been recently suffering
from indisposition. Several members of his grace's
family, , and the distinguished guests who are partici-
pating the hospitalities of Goodwood-house during the
meeting, formed a numerous party.
Subjoined are the details of the racing, which com-
menced at half-past one o'clock and terminated at five.

After the first fifty yards Apostate took the lead, with
Grapeshot and Corybantes well laid up, the ruck follow-
ing in close order. At the foot of the hill Apostate

declined, and Little Savage came out and took up the
running. At the distance he was challenged by Ire-
land's Eye, who obtained the lead at the corner of the
Stand, went on, and won very cleverly by half a length;
three lengths between the second and third. Close be-
hind the latter were William Rufus, Grapeshot, Cory-
bantes, and Speed the Plough. Convulsion and Lady
Isabel were in the extreme rear.

SHOCKING ACCIDENT.—This morning a shocking acci-
dent occurred to a little girl, about eight years of age,,
of the name of Pye, whose parents reside in Braziers•
court, Farringdon-street. It appears she was passing
down Stonecutter-street, with an infant in her arms,
when her foot slipped off the curb at the instant a heavy
cart was passing, and a wheel
a passed over one of her
ncles and leg,
which was frightfully smashed and frac-
tured. She was immediately taken to St. Bartholomew's
Hospital. The infant was fortunately caught by a female
passing, without having received any injury.
