SPORTING NOTES.

THE JULY WEEK.

Although the list of sport does not present a very
formidable appearance, yet it will furnish racing
enough to amuse the select number of spectators
who assist at the July meeting. It has been an-
nounced that the proceedings will take place entirely
on the other side of the ditch, where the prettiest
and pleasantest course within the range of
Newmarket Heath is situated. The card
will contain no items of attraction in addi-
tion to the July and Chesterfield Stakes, but
the interest centred in those events forms in itself
a trial of strength to the gathering. Both races
are likely to command pretty large fields. Buc-
caneer won his engagement so easily at Stock-
bridge that it would be absurd either to ignore his
pretensions or to depreciate his merit. Still in
Lady Falconer and Baron Rothschild's good-look-
ing colt, the King of Diamonds, he will meet very
dangerous antagonists, albeit I do not think they
will be capable of making him strike his colours.
Trovatore has shown much ability, and
to him and Seclusion I shall entrust the
task of winning the Chesterfield Stakes.
The minor events require no notice. The
work of reform has already commenced at
Newmarket. That doubtful ornament, the Duke's
Stand, has been demolished, and the road by the
lands has been commenced. Who knows but that
in time we shall have to mention the building of a
Stand, and that the Jockey Club is not indifferent
to the requirements and the demands of the public.
Like Jordan, Carlisle is a long way to travel, and
our Northern turfites will assist at it. The Grand
Stand Handicap ought to be won by Shafto. Paul
may win the Cumberland Plate.

On Wednesday morning I will despatch from
Newmarket my notions about Worcester.

THE WORCESTER Cur.—The Worcester Cup
valued (but certainly under its value) at two hundred
guineas, the veiy liberal gift of the Earl of Coventry; which
is to be run for this meeting at Worcester, has just been
finished at the manufactory of Mr. Hancock, of Bruton-
street. It is among the many elegant pieces of sporting
plate produced at that establishment, and will increase the
reputation of those concerned in its production. The cup
is a large vase, supported by a strong foot or stem, on an
ebony pedestal, ornamented with silver. On the side are
female figures emblematical of victory. There is a relief
representing a race on Worcester Course on one part of the
bowl, and the short inscription, " Worcester Races, 1859,"
on another. The workmanship is in the Alhambra man-
ner. The cup is precisely what it assumes to be, an appro-
priate prize for a winning horse.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(TIlIS DA F.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CHILD STEALING—HEARTLESS CASE.—Sarah Taylor, a
short female, attired in black, and who was accompanied
to the court by a large crowd of persons, who at times
loudly gave vent to their feelings, was charged by Mr. In-
spector Webb, of the C division, with stealing a child about
nine months old, named William Edward Scadham, the son
of a poor woman living at 52, Charles• street, Drury-lane,
on the 30th of March last.

The mother, who, at times, could scarcely give her evi-
dence from emotion, said that she was not married, but had
lived with a person for several years, and in consequence of
a quarrel with him she, on the morning of March 30,
left her home, so that nothing further might take place, and
it being very cold, and raining at the time, she went into a
public-house to shelter herself and child, and after they had
been there a short time the prisoner got into conversation
with her, she having known her slightly before, and on
leaving the house she said she would go and get her child
some bread and butter, and when they got up to St. Giles'
church railings, asked her to let her take the child for a
moment, and she did, thinking she was going into a house
close by, and after waiting some time, and as she did not
return, the thought then came across her mind that she had
gone off with her child, which was the case ; and although
she had tried every means to find her since—having given
information to the police and had handbills printed—she
had never soon her till that morning, when she saw her at
the bottom of the Old Bailey, when, on accosting her, she
said, " Oh, I was going to find you.* She then gave her
into custody.
The prisoner said the woman lent the child for a week or
two, and she had tried to find her.
Prosecutrix said that was not likely, as the.child was not
weaned. She had gone about like a mad woman ever since.
Goodman, city constable, 345, said she had some boxes of
matches on her when he took her into custody.

Inspector Webb said, immediately on the occurrence
handbills were printed, a subscription being got up for the
purpose. There was a lad in court who had seen the pri-
soner almost daily with the child about Kingsland, Hoxton,
and near the canal. He understood the prisoner sold flowers
about the streets.

The prisoner, who persisted that the child was left with
her, but could not say the reason why, and who evidently
was not telling the truth, was then remanded for a week.

EXECUTION OF SAMUEL ADAMS FOE
MURDER.

This morning Samuel Adams, aged 36, a shoemaker,
underwent the extreme penalty of the law in front of New-
gate for the murder of Martha Christina Page, in the parish
of ilornsey. The deceased was sister to the convict's wife,
who had separated from him on account of his intemperate
habits, and on the sth of May, while she was proceeding to
Abney Park Cemetery with a relative, ho came up and
demanded to know where his wife was, and on the deceased
refusing to tell him, he drew a knife from his breast and
stabbed her three times, from the injuries of which she died.
Since the trial, which took place at the last Central
Criminal Court Sessions, and sentence of death passed, the
wretched man became sullen and morose, and although the
Sheriffs, in naming the day of his execution, held out no
hope of mercy, he refused to listen to the ministrations of Mr.
Davis, the Ordinary of Newgato. An application was
made to the Secretary of State, who refused to inter-
fere, and said the law must take its course,
and after that was communicated to the wretched man, by
degrees he became less sullen and morose, and requested to
have the ministration of Mr. Jukes, an Independent minis-
ter, which was granted, but that gentleman being out of
town he requested the attendance of a Mr. Smith, of
Philip. street, Hoxton, a City missionary, who attended
bins during the week, and to whose admonitions be ap-
peared to pay great attention, but declined those of the Rev.
Mr. Davis. ,
On Saturday he had an interview with his wretched wife,
and at first it was feared he might attempt to do her some
bodily harm, but by the judicious reasoning and presence
of Mr. Weatherhead, the governor, he became so calm and
resigned as to express his sincere sorrow for the crime he
had committed, freely admitting the justice of the sentence
he was to undergo ; ho freely forgave and pardoned his
wife, and begged her forgiveness and pardon, which she
readily accorded him, and, after an affectionate farewell,
they parted to meet no more.
Yesterday (Sunday) Mr. Smith continued in attendance
upon the wretched man, who refused to attend the service
in the chapel of the gaol ; he was, however, visited by the
Rev. Mr. Davis. He retired at an early hour, and slept
soundly, but awoke at six this morning, and was soon after
joined by Mr. Smith, who remained with Ifra to the last,
and he frequently admitted the justness of his sentence,
and joined in prayer for forgiveness.
As early as five o'clock, the workmen completed the pre-
parations for the fatal scene that was to be enacted, the
scaffold being brought out and placed in front of the gaol ;
and from this time crowds gradually assembled, until, at
the fatal hour, many thousands were present. The crowd
was not so numerous, but more orderly than usual, although
some of them were of the worst description.
At half-past seven the sheriffs, Alderman Hale and Mr.
Deputy Condor, and Mr. Under-sheriff Surr, arrived at
the • gaol, and at a quarter to eight they proceeded
to the condemned convict's cell. The wretched
man was standing up in a subdued, calm, resigned
state, lie had previously requested of Mr. Davis, the Ordi-
nary, that no communication should be made to him, he
merely whispered to Mr. Smith, and then went on his
knees, covering his faco with his hands, and for some time
appeared to be engaged in earnest prayer. He rose more
calmly, and shook hands with the chaplain, Mr. Weather-
bead, the governor, and surgeon, thanking them for their
kindness, he then turned to his spiritual adviser, Mr. Smith,
and, shaking hands with him, begged him to convey his
last remembrance and forgiveness to his wife. Mr. Under-
Sheriff Surr asked him, if he wished to make any other
communication. Hereplied, "No." Calcraftwas then intro-
duced ; the ceremony of pinioning havingbeen completed,
the chapel bell tolled forth the fatal death knell, the proces-
sion was then formed to the scaffold, the wretched man,
although club-footed, walking firmly. The fatal noose
having been adjusted the signal was given, and he was
launched into eternity. Ho appeared to struggle much.
The body, after hanging the usual time was cut down, and
will be interred within the gaol.
