SPORTING NOTES.

SOMETHING SHORT FROM STAMFORD.
Although the supply of sport was somewhat scanty, yet
the racing was marked by incidents of an exciting nature.
The encounters indeed wore in every instance close and
stirring, and gave the book-makers several "good turns."
7 to 1 was betted on Baalbec for tho 100 Sovs Sweepstakes,
but Boer, who had an allowance of 31bs, beat him by a
neck. This was the first of the series of " agreeable sur-
prises." Then came the Burghley Stakes, for which sto 4
was betted against Cock Pheasant. Tho race in between
the favourite and El Dorado was extraordinarly exciting.
Cock Pheasant seemed in "difficulties" at the half distance,
but he struggled on gamely to the end, and made a dead
heat of it with El Dorado. For the deciding heat 6to 4
was laid on Cock Pheasant. El Dorado waited to about
the distance, where she challenged Cock Pheasant, and
after a slashing race in won by a head. The winner, too, after
passing the judge's chair, overpowered her jockey, and did
a little bit of steeple-chasing by jumping the rails at the
top turn ! The other races do not require particular notice,
and indeed the necessity of sending my notes in time for
publication in Wednesday's Sun, prevents my referring to
them even if I had the inclination.

A shameful proceeding was witnessed—happily, how-
ever, by few persons—in tha stand enclosure, in the course
of the afternoon. A more filthy occurrence can scarcely
be imagined, and the authors of it deserved the indignation
and contempt which were unsparingly bestowed upon them.
Although they had no sense of decency, yet they should
have had some consideration for the ladies in the stand.
People who were at Stamford will readily guess to what
circumstance my remarks refer. The particulars are too
disgusting for publication.
I have only time to send a few brief notes on Notting-
ham. Not a bet on the events to be decided has come
under my notice to-day. With a start—a necessary stipu-
lation nowadays—l shall select Prince Plausible and
Louvat against the field for the Robin Hood Stakes. The
betting would seemingly indicate the Nottinghamshire
Handicap to be a certainty for Typee. Among the ether
animals handicapped that seem to have a chance, the most
favourably " in" are Indian Warrior, Lough Bawn, Jac-
queline, Whalebone, and Barrel. Could I see, in my
mind's eye, the " numbers up," I might be able to select
the absolute owner from this lot. The Sherwood Handicap
I shall leave the gentlemen riders to settle to the best of
their ability. For both the Castle Handicap and Chester-
field Handicap Domino " looks well on paper."
A FRESH MAN.
Stamford, July 18th, 1854.

1 ODESSA.—The letters from Odessa to day reach to the
7th of July, and state that the great impediment to
business was the want of ships. Greek vessels were
getting high freights to take produce from the Sea of
Azofl to Constantinople, whence it is transhipped to this
country.
TESTIMONIAL TO THE REV. W. QUEKETT, M.A.—
The Earl of Aberdeen having appointed the Rev. Wm.
Quekett, M.A. (Incumbent of Christ Church, St.
George's East), Rector of Warrington, Lancashire, a
numerous meeting of his friends was holden on Monday
evening last, at the schools, in Johnson-street, to wit-
nessett the presentation, by the senior churchwarden (Mr.
Henry Eaddeley), of a very chaste candelabrum of silver,
valued at 100 guineas, and bearing the following
inscrip-
tion, viz.:--" Presented to the Rev. William Q uek
M.A., Incumbent of Christ Church, St. George's East, by
many of his congregation and parishioners, as a memo-
rial
aon, Lan-
of the sincere attachment of those to whom he had
endeared himself through a faithful ministry of 24 years,
upon his preferment to therr The rev,
ogfenWtlae Warrington,
returned
ca,':hire. July, 1851."
thanks after the presentation for that additional mark of
respect( and regard which bad been evinced towards
him on vacating the sphere of usefulness in which he
had successfully laboured for nearly a, quarter of a
century
.
