NORTHAMPTON RACES.
(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
The prophets have said the Northamptonshire's ran,
Arid Tartar, by Kremlin, is second to none;
A few have named Westow, averse to the Pot,
'.rho' neither will win, decidedly not.

To speak of each nag that's likely to run,
Would weary the readers of The Ev'ning Sun;
And I am no poet, you clearly must see, •
Thu' I'll bet 2 to 1 on my own prophecy.
On Pillage or Watchdog to joke, I disdain,
About barking, &c.; but firmly maintain
That Westow will yield to Fernhill in the race,
Giving Tartar, the " pot of the Day," the third place.
Yours, HORSEPICK.

LOUIS PHYLIPPE'S RACING STUD.—The whole of
Louis Philippe's magnificent stud, comprising about
sixty brood mares and entire horses, is about to be sold
by public auction at Versailles. The day of sale is
fixed for the 2cl of April, and very considerable interest
has been excited on both sides of the Channel by the
announcement. The horses to be sold include draughts
from the stables at Versailles, Meuden, and St. Cloud,
and among the animals are several of the purest Arabia❑ li
breed. Several of them were presented to the ex•liing
by the Pacha of Egypt, the Imaum of Muscat, and the
Bay of Tunis. The pedigreees, as set forth in the cata-
logue, will be found most interesting to sporting readers.
NELL GWYNNE TAVERN AND CHOP HOUSC.—It
will be seen by an advertisement in this evening's im-
pression that this tavern is now open to the public, and
we can with truth state that the arrangements are first
rate. The proprietors, Messrs. Archer and Holt, pre-
side at the Tatsle d'hote, which takes place daily (Sun-
days excepted), at half-past fire precisely. It is served
up:in good style, and we cannot only recommend the Nell
Gw•ynne to gentlemen from the city connected with pub-
lic offices, banking houses, or otherwise, hut also to the
visitors to this various theatres, and gentlemen from the
country, as being one of the most commodious and re-
spectable and. economical taverns in
,the metropolis. In
addition to the cortee-room, there are private dining
rooms for the accommodation of legal gentlemen who
may have business with their clients that requires
privacy.
CATCHING A TARTAR.—A singular circumstance
occurred at Chesterton, near Cambridge, on the 9th
inst. A servant girl went to the river to fetch a pail of
water, and es pied, fluatiniz on the top of the stream, a
remarkably flue pike; she made a plunge at it with her
pail, and succeeded in capturing her prize. The pike
not relishing his coEfined position, jumped out of the
pail, and fell by the river's edge; and the girl, fearful of
losing him, them herself upon the Pike, placing her
hand upon his head, when he bit nearly the whole of her
middle finger off, and the next. moment was safe in his
native element, carrying with him the poor girl's finger.
She has been very ill ever sloop.
Dispatche's for the Governor of Ceylon were sent off
from the Cqloniat-office on Saturday evening.
