SPORTING INTLI,LIGENCE.

TATTERSALL' S—YESTERDA r.
THE DERBY AND OAKS.
The settling for the above races took place yesterday, and, agree-
ably to general expectation, went off amazingly well ; better, in-
deed, than for many years. So pleasant a termination to a year's
speculation is attributable not only to the small amount of the
losses, but to the fact of their being incurred almost wholly by
those who are always ready to meet their engagements. We do
not mean to say that every account was settled, but the amount
left unpaid is too inconsiderable to excite any uneasiness.

ASCOT CUP.
It was declared that Slane was lame, and Kill not start either for
the above race or for the Somersetshire or Gloucestershire Stakes.

The extraordinary match against time, run on the 27th ult., on
the road from Brussels to Antwerp, has excited great interest in
the Belgian capital. The horse was a thoroughbred Chesnut, called
Uncle John, belonging to M. Laurence, and was ridden by a favou-
rite jockPy of Mr. Long Wellesley. His accomplishing the task
was the more wonderf..l, as, on the preceding Monday, he met with
an accident so severe that it was fully believed he would be incapa-
citated from running, and the odds were high in favour of time.
The horse was, however, brought round by the skill of his veteri-
nary surgeon, although still obliged to wear an India-rubber boot.
When he fell' at the lines of Antwerp he remained for some time
motionless, with his eves closing, and was believed to bo dying,
but as he revived as soon as his saddle was taken off, the jockey,
without his cap, jumped On his back, and rode him in the time we
have before stated. It should be added that four of the miles were
over a paved road, which it was impossible to avoid, and that the
gallant animal had to pass through several towns and villages. Ile
is now so far recovered from the fatigue of his unparalleled feat as
to feed well, and to show no affection of the lungs ; but his near
foreleg is somewhat swollen.

GREAT -RADICAL DEMONSTRA-
TION, AT BATH IN FAVOUR OF UNIVERSAL
SUFFRAGE AND THE PEOPLE'S CHARTER.

Preparations haVing been making for some time past to have
a thorough Radical demonstration of the citizens of Bath, and
A.. Vincent, in London, having been invited to attend, the
proceedings took place on Whit Monday, by a public meeting
in the Corn Market, and a social tea festival at the Guildhall
in the evening. At ten o'clock in the morning the members
of the Working Men's Association, and a numerous body of
the citizens, together with friends from Bristol, Trowbridge,
and the surrounding districts, assembled on the North Pa-ade,
decorated with colones, banners, flags, &c. The procession,
which was a very large one, having been duly arranged, at
eleven o'clock the Committee conducted Mr. Vincent to the
assembly, who was received with the hearty acclamations of
the multitude. The Committr e having taken up their posi-
ti,n, the band struck up, and the procession moved on through
Widcombe, and on passing over the old bridge was saluted by
a round of cannon and a peal of the Abbey bells, and after
proceeding through the principal streets of the city, arrived
at the Corn Market, where hustings had been erected, at half-
past twelve o'cir.ek. The immense meeting presented a very
animated appearance, vvhich was increased by the presence of
numerous well-dressed ladies.
Mr. BoLWELL was called to the chair, and made an ex-
cellent speech, which was loudly cheered.
Very excellent speeches were also made by Mr. GEORGE
BARTLETT, and Mr. MEALING, in proposing the first resolu-
tion, deprecating the present miserable condition of the work-
ing people.
The resolution, after being supported by Mr.-Alderman
CRISP in a very eloquent speech, was carried by acclamation.
The second resolution, in favour of Uriiversal Suffrage, was
moved by Mr. SAMUEL BARTLETT, who ably introduced the
People's Charter to the Meeting ; he was loudly cheered.
The CHAIRMAN then introduced Mr. Vincent to the Meet-
ing, cheering who was received with tremendous and clapping
of hands. We regret we have not his speech fur insertion.
He spoke with great spirit and eloquence for nearly an hour
end a half, and concluded amidst the most enthusiastic and
continued acclamation. After carrying a resolution, adopting
the People's Charter, and voting thanks to Mr. Vincent, to
which he replied in a neat speech, warning the people against
man-worship, and calling upon them to adhere to principle,
the meeting separated.
