SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEETING.
NEWMARKET, SUNDAY AFTERNOON. _

The races commence to-morrow, and promise five days'
good sport. The principal stakes to be decided are, the
Two Thousand Guineas on Tuesday, the One Thousand
Guineas on Thursday, and the Sweepstakes substituted for
the Newmarket Stakes on Friday. For the first named
the pretensions of the three favourites appear to be so
equally balanced, that Bentley and Viator are backed at 7 to
2 each, and Glencoe at about a point more. This is some-
what different from their relative positions in the Derby
betting, which presents a difference of ten points
between Bentley and the other two. Bentley's recom-
mendations are intrinsically good, however they may be
weakened in the opinion of the public by the weakness of
Cooper's stable, as evinced in the Craven Meeting ; he
won the Clearwell and Criterion Stakes (in the latter
carrying 71b. extra), beating large fields of horses with
perfect ease, and will come out for the Two Thousand
Guineas Stakes quite fresh. Should he win it cleverly,
Plenipotentiary will have a dangerous opponent. On the
other hand, defeat will entirely conclude him for the Derby.
Viator and Glencoe won the two Riddlesworths easily, and
Viator supported his running by. beating Lord Lichfield's
Ida colt in a canter, on the following Thursday ; but Glen-
coe received so unequivocal a beating oh the same day from
Plenipotentiary, that, whatever may be said of the race hav-
ingbeen a " mistake," we cannotbelieve,evenifhe wins the
two thousand, that he has any chance for the Derby. Next
to these three are Delirium, Brother to Kate, and Olympic,
about whom little has been said, and nothing done. The
1,000 guineas seems to rest between Itosalie and Amadeu,
unless Cotillon should start, in which case her public run-
ning will make her the favourite ; the Espagnolle filly has
been mentioned as a likely mare, but the uncertainty which
prevails as to what will start, prevents any speculation on
the race. The stake on Friday seems to be booked for
Plenipotentiary, as there is nothing else in it which can
warrant an expectation of his being opposed with success.
Several other valuable stakes will come off in the course of
the meeting. The following is a list of the horses in
training here engaged in the course of the meeting :

a commission of lunacy was executed at Cooper-house
Lunatic Asylum, before Commissioners hitmarsh,
Winslow, and Blount, to inquire into the state of mind
of the Rev. Paul Saumarez. The unfortunate g entle-
man, who was the subject of the inquiry, is about 33
years of age, and is the nephew of Lord Saumarez.
He expressed a wish to attend during the proceedings,
and he was therefore accommodated with a seat at the
upper part of the room. Evidence was given as to the
conduct of the unfortunate gentleman on various occa-
sions, and this concluded the inquiry. The Jury in-
stantly returned a verdict, finding that Mr. Saumarez
had been insane since the 11th of May, 1830.

THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY.y

Colo,

Last week's arrival of Nl'lleat and Flour was tolerably
good; ether articles the quantities were moderate.
Wheat remained unaltered from Monday. Barley, Beans.
and Oats, were eaeh is. per quarter higher, with a good
demand. This anon-sing the fresh supplies are again mo-
derated, but having had gatere reasonable rain, the buyers
were less desirous to purchase spring corn. The best par-
cels of Wheat have realized last Monday's quotations ;
other descriptions are dull, and rather cheaper. Barley sup-
ports the advance of Is. per garter, Which was obtained
on Friday last. Beans may also be reported full
Is. per quarter higher than this day se'nnight. Boiling
and Grey Pease are not plentiful, and rather dearer. A
good clearance of Oats was made last week at :is. per
quarter advance on the terms of this day se'nnight, w!neli
has been maintained to-day ; but the trade is not livei}.
There is a fine demand for Flour at last prices.
