The supplies of meat on sale here are moderately exten-
sive. Good and prime beef, mutton, and pork move off
steadily at very full prices ; otherwise, the trade is slow, at
about previous currencies.

SPORTING NOTES.

The Newmarket Second October Meeting commences to-
day, the only race that will Cause any change in the bet-
ting for the Cesarewitch being the Handicap (Cesarewitch
course), for which Elcho, Gridiron, Moorhen, and Chere
Arnie are entered. • If Elcho and Gridiron get defeated, it
will nearly extinguish any chance that Schism might have
possessed, as they were both in the trial. Should Sir J.
Hawley be successful with Moorhen it will make Asteroid
a great favourite. The Cesarewitch, the most important
event of the week, will take place to-morrow. The field
will number about two dozen. Those likely to take part in
the race will be selected from the following :

Schism was made a favourite long before the publication
of the weights, and has been occasionally nibbled at ever
since. Within the last few days she has seen a very short
price, in consequence of a favourable trial with Elcho.
Gridiron, and several of W. Day's. With all the respect
I hold this stable in, the public will find, when the result
of the race is known, that they have lost their money by
just being a little too eager to " get on," and that the
stable have won theirs by getting off. Ivanhoff, after Old-
minster's performances in Scotland, ought to have a great
chance, but within the last day or two it would appear that
there is something wrong with the horse or the "currency"
question.

La Vapeur, by the Baron, out of Wedlock, figured most
ingloriously on the only two occasions of her running in
public, having been last to Malta for a £5O Plate at New-
market July, and unplaced for the Stewards' Cup
at Goodwood. But from the way her party
now support her, I hold her chance second to none.
Asteriod, by Stockwell, out of Teetotum, was only out
twice last year, having on one occasion beaten Vinegar
Hill very cleverly, while on the other he ran Klarikoff to a
head. This he followed up by running a good third to
Russley and Yorkmiuster at Newmarket last spring; and,
after several other respectable performances in good com-
pany, we find him beating a good field of two-yr-olds at
racing weights at Doncaster, the Pilot being among the
number. He has had an extraordinary trial with Rising
Sun and Moorhen; and, although I originally preferred
his chance for the Cambridgeshire to the Cesarewitch, I am
compelled to respect the judgment of so clever a tactician
as Sir Joseph Hawley, and I quite expect to see Asteroid
secure a place, if he does not be tho absolute winner.
Squire Percy I have no fancy for. Schism, as I have
before said, will not hurt the bookmakers. Calpe and Vol-
tella should finish together, but knowing the latter to be
an overrated mare she cannot have much chance. Bally
Edmond is another of the same class. Paste, if in his last
year's form, must hold all the light weights safe. Flirta-
tion has be tten Mouravieff and others in a private spin, as
the latter and The Sage have been down at Prince's during
the past week. He will run well, and must not be neglected
both to win and for a place. The judge, I anticipate, will
placo them in the following order :

LA VAPEUR
PASTE
ASTEROID ,

The Clearwell Stakes will go to either Wingrave or Old
Calabar ; the former for choice. Kettledrum should win
the Select Stakes, despite his 71bs. penalty. The only one
that will make him gallop is the Lawyer. Lord Stamford's
horse ought to win the Bedford Stakes, King of Hearts the
50 Sovs. Sweepstakes; Bertha, the Britby; Walloon, or
Evenhand, the 500 Sovs Sweepstakes ; Canwell, or Laugh-
ing Stock, the Prendergast, and Sawcutter the Post
Epsom Handicap. A FRESH MAN.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER.-SATURDAT.

Schism displaced Asteroid from the position of first fa-
vourite, being supported very freely ; 6to 1 was taken.
The highest offer for a long time against Asteroid was 8 to 1.
Paste was also freely supported towards the close at 10 to 1.
La Vapeur, Ivanhoff, and Calpe were very firm at their re-
spective quotations. Flirtation had for a time the appear-
ance of being made a great favourite, but his friends stopped
at 25 to 1. Rapparee, who was in great force yesterday
(Friday) beat a very sudden retreat shortly after business
commenced ; 500 to 5 was laid, afterwards we saw 500 to
10 taken, and after the telegram had indicated that 14 to
1 was the taking price in London, 100 to 3 was taken a few
times, but he finished at 40 to 1 being offered against him.

THE EXECUTION OF COGAN.

(THIS DAY.)

The last scene of the frightful tragedy in Holborn took
place this morning in front of Newgate, namely, the exe-
cution of William Cogan for the wilful murder of his wife.
Memorials had been forwarded to the Home Secretary
praying for a remission of the awful sentence; but the
answer transmitted by the Secretary of State was, that ho
saw nothing that would warrant him in recommending her
Majesty to exercise her prerogative of mercy, and accord-
ingly last night, or, more properly, very early this morn-
ing*, the usual barriers were erecte.l at the different streets
leading to the Old Bailey, and shortly before daylight the
executioner's platform was drawn from its repository in
the court-yard of Newgate, and fixed in its usual position.
The officials of the prison entered Cogan's cell this morn-
ing at seven o'clock, and when asked if he had any state-
ment to make, preparatory to the sentence being complied
with, he replied, "Nothing; I've nothing to say further
than that I'm innocent—l'm prepared."
While Calcraft was pinioning him, Cogan asked for a
little brandy and water, which was given him, and then,
when told that the hour of execution had arrived, he
walked unassisted from the room to the gallows, repeating
portions of the service for the burial of the dead.
The time occupied by Calcraft in adjusting the cap and
noose was very brief, and in a minute or two afwa

Cogan ceased to exist.
There was of course a great concourse of spectators corn-
-1
posed chiefly of the lowest class of costersuongers.
