SPORTING INTELLIGENCE

MANCHESTER, TUESDAY EVENINO.
On this day week, Mr. Lockwood, according to custom,
will decide the greatest northern race run during the sear;
but we fear the event will not excite the urual degree of
interest. The horses, in any demand, will be found from
the following quotations to be extraordinarily few. No-
thing, it appears, is to have a chance but the pride' of
Scott's stable, and the Newmarket horse (bred by Mr.
Nowell), Gibraltar. At a very full meeting of both town
and country speculators this morning, 60 to 40 was offered
on the two; 7 to 4 nearly at the close of business would
have been accepted. The " copious odds" of 50 to Ito
win some lii.:ndreds, were laid v. Mr. Robinson's St. An-
drew ; Maroon was backed at our figure. We did not Lear
the Champagne Sakes mentioned. A feature in the pro-
ceedings was "calling over," preparatory to the iutli••ntial
speculators leaving for Doncaster. The prices will, no
doubt, vary every day; within the past hour we base seen
6 fifties to 4 offered on the field, and 3 score to 1, " bar
one."

NOTICE TO MARINERS BOUND TO ALEX.

ANDIZIA.

The following copy of a Circular is posted at Lloyd's:
" Alexandria, August 22, 1840.

Sin —Formerly foreign merchant vessels were ad.
mitted only into the new, or eastern harbour of Alex-
andria, and under present circumstances his Highness th•
Viceroy, my master, has decided, not only to re•estabiish
this custom for the present, but to order that also Otto-
man merchant v siels shluld be subject to the same regu-
lations, in order to avoid any mischief that accident, im.
prudence, or ill- will, might occasion to the fleet which i 3 in
the old, or western harbour.

" In the meantime, in order to facilitate as much as pos-
sible all commercial operations, and the speedy loading of
vessels, such merchant vessels will be received into
the western harbour as will have discharged the whole of
their cargoes in the eastern harbour, and will ask the visit
of the Captain of the port appointed by the local autho-
rities, who will furni►h them with a certificate, cating
that the vessels are ready to take in cargoes, and that they
have nothing on board in the shape of gunpowder or
other inflammables. After such a visit the pilot will
cause such vessels to be put under sail, and will conduct
them into the old harbour, where an anchorage will be
assigned to them.
" The vessels that will be entitled to such facilities are
to conform to the police regulations of the old harbour.
They are to have their colours hoisted regularly during
the day time, and they are especially forbidden to put their
boats out :rem sunset until sunrise. _ _

" In transmitting to you this communication by order of
his Highness, I have the honour of renewing, Sir, the
assurance of my high consideration.
(Signed) " BOGHOS TOUSSOUFF.
" To Colonel G. Lloyd Hodges, Alexandria."
