SPORTING NOTES.

SUGGESTIONS ABOUT SALISBURY.

I did not travel into the North, and the Doings
at Doncaster were not sufficiently important to
make me regret my stop-at-home propensity.
Metropolitan sportsmen, and others in the South,
will have two merry days at Salisbury, whence has
boon issued a most attractive programme. Still
one drawback from the fall enjoyment of
the sport, in the exorbitant charges Wl,fol, are made
by the hotel keepers, and the e'en. a 0,0 Course
is the foremost leader in this crusade against the
pockets of the race visitors.
Perhaps, however, the abuse will be partly abo-

lished, n-Ow that attention has been directed to it.
" Mr. J. Rigby" has two—Borderer and Tourna-
ment—nominated for the Wiltshire Stakes, and it is
said that Tournament will hold his confidence. If
I couple this horse with The Brewer, I think I
shall have my interest represented by the winner.
Lainstone showed so much merit at North-
ampton that I shall trust him for the Fifth Bien-
nial Stakes.

Should Lupullus and Chirp meet for the Salis-
bury Stakes the race will be peculiarly interesting.
I shall be inclined to give my preference to Mr. T.
Parr's colt.

The Shun Plate will go, into Mr. Day's stable.
to a match between Lupullus a;4llloltTeonegl,
For the Longford Castle Stakes I shall select Lain-
stone, who has a 61b. allowance. Either Snap or
Joskin may win the Handicap Plate of £6O. I
shall not venture a guess at the winner of the
Longleat Stakes, as the result of the race will
depend upon the running to-morrow. _

THIS DAYS ItARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

A very limited supply of English wheat was on offer in
to-day's market. The attendance of buyers was by no
means numerous, yet the demand for all kinds was firm,
at prices fully equal to Monday's improvement.
We had a steady, though not to say brisk, sale for foreign
wheat, at extreme currencies. The show of samples was
very moderate.
floating cargoes of grain, off Falmouth, was held for
more money.
Barley and malt on former terms; but the inquiry for
those articles was rather inactive.
Oats, beans, and peas were in moderato request, on
former terms.
We had a steady sale for flour, at full quotations.
