SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S.

Colwick and Bras ie Fer are at close quarters for the first place
—l4 to 1 are the odds against each, and no easy matter to say
which has the call—it seems not unlikely that Colwick will even.
tually get the better of the Irish nag. Lord Jersey's two were
backed, but did not spring. The Varennes colt was in favour-
-25 to 1 was taken freely, and at the close nothing above 22 to 1
could be obtained. Hannus, Caleb, Rattler, and Bohemian, stick
at the old odds, with little appearance of either getting up or
going back. Several outsiders were backed, including Incubus
and Tears, who are more in favour than before. No be ting on
the Riddlesworth or St. Leger.

THE STRAYED JEWELS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.
Sta,—A considerable expectation was entertained by
many that the example of the Dowager Duchess of New-
castle would have been followed. I must oonfess I was not
so sanguine ; and the fact iy that net another resignation
his been notified to the Treasury. The Pelhanis show
that some of the ancient blood still remains ; hopes may,
therefore, be entertained that the rising race may again he
distinguished as was the past; bat a general degeneracy of
the breed has been exhibited by the body of the aristo-
cracy; they prove quite dunghill, pecking greedily at the
corn, as if it were their rightful food, and as if there were
no careful housewife to scare them from the plunder.
If I cannot congratulate the public that the noble pau-
pert' have been awakened to a sense of shame, and by a
voluntary resignation abandoned that plunder of the public
money which an honest body of representatives would
take from them, and which probably may not even be re-
voted by the present House of Commons, badly consti-
tuted as it is, yet I am well pleased to inform you, and
through you the country, that a sense of propriety, or fear
of exposure, has led a certain lady to restore to the Crown
that property which had been most shamefully alastraeted
from it. The jewels of the Crown are the property of the
people. They are a part and parcel of the splendour of
the Throne, and cannot be alienated from it. They have
been furnished at the expellee of the people,—the means
of the purchase having arisen from their industry. The
King has not the right to dispose of them to any one. The
most valuable pearls belonging to the Crown were found
absent. It was well known that the person of a late fa-
vourite had been bedecked with them, and it was natu-
rally supposed that they were yet in her possession. An
intimation was made to that quarter that as present could
have been made of them ; that they were the property of
time Crown, and, as such, sacied. These beautiful pearls,
to the value of 40,060/., were sent back, and are now
where they ought to be, in the possession of her 'Majesty.
Their retention was excused by the asattrauea they had
been received as a Royal present, With them was also
sent back a precious jewel, which had ornamented the
lamented Princess Charlotte, the daughter of George IV,
As this had become the property of the late King in his
life, and, therefore, he having the legal right; of the dis-
posal of it, it has, we understand, ben magnificently re-
stored to the favourite, with tl.e message that his Majesty
could not think of interfering with any gifts made by his
Royal Brother, over which he had full power. The
public have been amused with a caricature of a certain and
sudden packing up at Windsor instanter on the Royal
demise. There has evidently been cause for that carica-
ture; but the matter should not be left only to the onnish-
ment of such ridicule, it requires a more severe visitation
The returned jewel, which was the a;ofortunate Princess
Charlotte's, had often been seen on the person of the rapa-
cious lady. \Vhat shad be raid of the father who could so
bestow What had been the ornament of his only child ?
What can be said of the King who could so far forget his
own dignity as a Monarch, as 3 man, as a parent? But
what can be said of the delicacy of the lady who accepted
it, and displayed it in the presence of her husband, bar
children, her growisig-up daughters? What coal he said
of the husband who permitted, who sanctiaaed such con-
duct ? What can be said of the eons, of the sons-in-law,
who witnessed and tolerated it? and yet they are all
Nobles ! Blush, nobility !blush Nobility! The Icily
cannot boast of gentle blood, and seems to have partaken
of her father's narrow spirit, which, tagethea with his per-
severing industry, raised his family to affluence. There
should be an inquiry made as to the will of the late King •
it is due to the Public—it is due to his present Majrsty.
RADICAL.

The Treasurership of the Ordnance is, we
believe, filled up. Mr. CREEVIEY succeeds Mr. HoLmEs.
His MAJESTY has been pleased to appoint,
by letters patent under the Great Seal of Ireland, his
Grace CHARLES Duke of Richmond to be Postmaster-
, General of Ireland, is the room of the Earl of Rossa.--i
