SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

YORK AUGUST MEETING.

YORK, MONDAY AFTERNOON.

All the horses that will be here have now arrived, and
the whole are looking ; the totsi number is 48 The
appearance of Belshazetr, R-ckingham, and Connoisseur,
seems to impart a great degree of into r.st to the meeting.
The lot of twosyearsolds is unprecedentedly numerous,
no less than 17 of those engaged in the T.Y.C. stakes
being h. re. Rockingham is the favourite for the York-
shire stakes at 6 to 4 on him; for the King's Hundred it
is difficult to say what will go, nothing as yet having been
b.cked. A thin company is expected, owing to the pro-
tr .cted sitt;ng of Parliament, and vet.) few sporting men
have as yet arrived. The weather has for some time past
been hot and dry, and the course is in consequence very hard.
The Hon. E. Petre, one of the city AI Inhers, with his usual
liberality, tias forwat ded an additional 50/. to the stewards to
form another stake or plate as may be hest for the merest of
the meeting; looking at the list we must be allowed to
exoress a hope that they will appoint it fur Saturday, at
pres.nt only one plate staiiditig for that day. Surely t e
Yoik Meeting ought to favour the country farmers and
their lasses with a fairish day's sport on the market day,
for all the world knows that racing is truly a Yorkshire-
man's glory, whether he be a Peer, a farmer, a hedger,
or a diicher ; besides, to run fur it before Saturday, would
be to throw it away, as most of the horses are engaged
in o'her races. Moreover, by making Saturday's sport
more prominent, there would be an increased assemblage
of count; y people, the harvest not having yet commenced.
