SPORTING NOTES.

There are nine races to be decided to-morrow, the
cipal ones being the Spencer Plato and the St. Liz Handi-
cap. The horses entered for the latter are less numerous
by seven than last year, forty-five being the number
nominated against fifty-two in 1865 ; and of these we have
already seen the following run :—Problem, Jeannie Deans,
Prodigal, Venem filly by Dundee out of Blanch of Mid-
dlebie, Phantom Sail, Opoponax, Ariel, Princess Thyra,
Bounceaway, Libertine, Seringapatam, and Lady Rosehill,
But the winner I expect will be Mr. Merry's MARKSMAN,
who has a high reputation at home. He was bought at
the sale of the Middle Park yearlings last June by Mr. Merry
for I,ooogs. For the Earl Spencer's Plate OZONE and QUI
VIVE will run well. But this is one of those short spins
that it is almost impossible to spot the winner. The Racing
Stakes will be won by the selected of John Day. The Two
Year Old Sweepstakes seems at the mercy of PROBLE:of,
while the Northauiptonshire Cup Stakes would ;:pp2ar
destined also to fall to Mr. Chaplin by the aid of WILLIE
SerAnrE or Mess HARRIETTE, and the Sulby Stakes to
LOAF SUGAR. The Selling Plate and Lambert Plato dose
this evening.

COLONIAL.

SUGAIt.— Only a moderato demand has been experienced,
but prices are well supported. Refined goods are in fair
request, at steady rates.
COFFEE. There has been only a limited inquiry, with-
out any material change in value. The stocks on hand,
however, are still in excess of those held at the correspond..
ing period last year.
TEA.—Only a limited inquiry has been experienced, and
quotations are unaltered.
RICE.—A moderate amount of business has been done in
soft grain descriptions, and prices are unaltered. '
TALLOW.—This market has been generally firm, with an
upward tendency, occasioned solely by the closing in of
open accounts for tho month, which being done, the specu-
lators for higher prices must look to the wants of the trade
for the realisation of their projects; judging from the
smallness of demand, the consumers are not obliged to
follow the market in its upward course. The fears ota
great diminution in the supply of home tallow do not ap-

The Prince of Wales has accepted an invitation
to be present on Easter Monday next at the Brighton
Volunteer Review.

ceived on board by tho owners, who conducted them over
every part of this extraordinary vessel; which is now being
fitted with her screws, and will in a. few days leave the
docksfor an experimental trip previous to her departure for
St. Petersburg. The royal party remained on board some
tiirie, and 'on leaving re-embarked on board the Citizen

"borough-house.
