SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET CRATEN MEETING.
Newmarket, Sunday, Noon.

The following list of horses in training here having engage-
ments in the above meeting, the appointments of which ap-
peared in this paper last week, will unable absentees to avoid
laying out their money on such as are not in preparation. The
list is numerous, but as many, owing to the frost, are not suf-
ficiently forward to show, and others not good enough, the
fields in several instances will be select :
Three- Years- Old.— Surprise colt, Gonfalon, Cobweb colt,
Lord Jersey's Cetus gelding, filly out of Rowton's dam, Ro-
mance, Mecca, Young Rowton, Msgawiska filly, Masquerade,
Quo Minus, Anne Boleyn, Allerstoa, Velveteen, filly by Red-
„lrauntlet, out of Varna, Bamboo, Clara, Daedalus, Brother to
Cactus, Don John, Alemdar, Chemist, Industry, Inuendo, Cal-
listo, Goldpin colt, Morella, Unique, Barcarolle (Lord Albe-
tnarle's), Bullcalf, Variety colt, Lady Sophia, Ruth filly, Ca-
reline Elvina, f. out of Whisk's dam, Olio, St. Vitus, Wave,
Acacia filly, Salute filly, Guava, colt out of Flame's dam,
Saintfoin, Hawker filly, Anchorite, Sovenir colt, Thebes colt,
Nlanto colt, Tragedy filly, Quo Minus, Mercy colt, Jeannette
colt, Abdallah, Katherina filly, Willibert, colt out of Dervise's
' dam, Tableau, Tivoli, Aurora colt, The Rubber, and JIB.
Four-Years-Old and upwards.—Mango, Mahometan,
reed, Hybiscus, Dardanelles, Troilus, Epirus, Caravan, C°R'-
hay, Quicksilver, Mie Mac, Corban, Egeria, Rat-trap, Rtibyt
&c. &c.
Bodach Glas (the Fairy colt), Seth, both in the Derby,
and Mr. Biggs's Clara, arrived from Stockbridge on ThursclAY•
The most interesting events to be decided in the course of
the week are the Riddlesworth, the 200 soya. Stakes Ora
Thursday, and the Port. For the farmer it is not expecte6
that more than four will start. The Cobweb, Surprise, and
Variety colts are likely to be three of the lot. Lord Ches-
terfield's filly is also talked of ; and it is even hinted that Lord
Jersey will run, and, if he can, win with his gelding. As
much uncertainty prevails on this important point betting is
out of the question. For the 200 sovs. Stakes Cobweb wilt
have to meet Don John, winner of the Champagne Stakes aud
two other races last year. Lord Exeter has a horse ( Brother
to Cactus) in the same stake, so that the result will in all
er(,bability bring about some changes in the Derby betting.
The Port will no doubt prove very attractive to the public,
inasmuch as it will bring together Caravan, second to Phos-
phoi us for the Derby, and Epirus, who fell early in the race
for the Great St. Leger, never having been out either before
or since. He had been highly tried, and was then, as he is
now, very much fancied. For the Claret Jereed, who was
amiss all last year, is said to be "fit," and not unlikely to come
out:in:his old form. Hybiscus and Mango are expected to
shoo; for it. The Stakes in the list for to-morrow are the
Craven, two Handicaps (these three close to-night), the Rid-
Wesworth, and 150 soy. Stakes, for which Lord Tavistock's
filly will not run. The match is doubtful.
Mr. T. A. Smith's Captain Rock, and the colt out of
Slight arrived yesterday, per caravan, at Boyce's stables.
Arrivals.—The Duke of Rutland, Lord Jersey, Lord Suf-
field, Lord March, Lord Chesterfield, Lord and Lady Albe-
marle, Sir J. Shelley, Lord G. Bentinck, Colonel and LadY
Alice Peel, Hon. G. and Lady Agnes Byng, Mr. C. Wilson.
Mr. Greville, Mr. Irby, Mr. Elwes, Mr. Roberts, Mr. Won.
rall, &c.
From the number of lodgings taken a very full meeting i°
expected. The weather seems likely to change to rain. ,
The horses that reached town on Wednesday from Stoegh
bridge, on their road for Newmarket, were Seth, Beciac,
Glas, and Clara; Grey Momus and Brother to Muley Moine"
have not left Stockbridge.

Covent-garden market, at an early hour on Saturday
morning, exhibited tasteful signs of the rapid return of spring.
M att, of Deptford, the market gardener, so well known as
the originator of a peculiarly rich strawberry called the Ole;
likewise for cultivating a higher quality of that nutritious plan
the rhubarb, brought three waggons laden with bundles of the
latter in prime condition, a large portion of which was s°°ll
purchased by the green-grocers and fruiterers. The price viag
moderate, from 18d. down to 6d. for a good-sized bundle..
Grayson, of Mortlake, distinguished for his improved size ands
flavour of asparagus, brought his first cargo of that delicive
vegetable, grown in the natural ground, not forced.
quantity of spring spinach was prodigious ; salad, brocobt.t
sprouts, Brussels sprouts, turnip-tops, and even young ca
bages, were in good supply. Cucumbers, French beans, and
new potatoes were likewise in abundance, but of course rather
high in price. We were gratified to learn from various mar-
ket-gardeners,-that, notwithstanding the late severe and long-
continued winter, the b!essonts in general were never more
brilliant than they are present. Thcrc is the ::rrongest
dication of plentiful crops. The florists and nurserymen bad
for sale delightful varieties of odoriferous shrubs and flowers.
