SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEETING.
The One Thousand Guineas Stakes, like all the other Stakes,
having relation to the great events to come off at Epsom, was won
by the favourite so easy that speculation is almost at a stand-still.
The King's Plate.—Datura took the lead and kept it, with Con-
sol in waiting, till they faced the hill opposite the plantation, which
effectually concluded her ; the horse won by two lengths, but, to all
appearance, was considerably more distressed than the mare; the
Phantom colt (a worthless scion of a noble stock) was beaten in
about a mile and a half.
At the Joci:ey Club Dinner this evening were :Lord Strad-
broke (in the Chair), Lord Verulam, Lord G. Bentinck, Lord
Uxbridge, Lord Charles Manners, Mescrs. Mills, B. Craven,
Payne, Greville, Irl)y, Roberts, Udny, Elives, &c.

Kingston-house Rooms, Friday night.
•
The effect of Bodice's dead heat with so indifferent a horse as
Fergus has been to send Ascot back a couple of points. Hester
had so bad a place that she moy now be considered as out of the
betting. The only horses quotable for the Derby are the following :--.
7 to 4 agst Lord Jersey's Ibrailim (offered)
5 to 1 agst Mr. Ridsdale's Coriulsnus (taken)
7 to 1 agst Lord Orford's Ascot (offered)
