SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

WOLVERHAMPTON RACES.—TuEspey.

HEARTLESS ROBBERY BY A NURSE.—Mary Ann Pale-
field, a woman of about 60, of bloated appearance, and de
scribed as a nurse, was charged with the following heart-
less robbery :

Mr. James Clark, bootcloser, of 1, Ship-yard, Wardour-
street, Soho, said the prisoner had been employed by hlm
for about 7 weeks to nurse his wife, who unfortunately died
on Sunday week. He had since kept the prisoner em-
ployed, and in consequence of what he learnt from his ap•
prentice, since the funeral of his wife, he took a constable
to the prisoner's lodgings, 10, Hopkins. street, and there
found a large quantity of articles, his property, including
two bags of feathers, taken fz om the bed on which his late
wife had been lying—in fact,
there were articles of every
description taken.

Edwin Beale, apprentice to Mr. Clark, proved that on
Monday last, owing to the absence of Mr. Clark, the pri-
soner came to him and said she was going on an errand.
He went upstairs, and then looking out of the window, saw
the prisoner leave the house with two bundles under her
apron—the ends projecting.

Pawson, 121 C, said prisoner denied having the feathers,
but on going to her lodgings he found them sewed up in
two bags. She at first said she had got them out of pawn
in Tottenham-court-road, but afterwards that she had taken
them out of her own b2cl to make two pillows; and on
examining the bed it had not been opened.
Mr. Mansfield remanded her for a few days.
A BETTING AFFAIR.—Wm. Fey, a betting man, was
charged with annoying Mr. John Wm. Clubb, fishmonger,
of 17, Tyler- street, Regent-street.
_ _

➢ir. Clubb said—l gave the man in charge for causing a
riot round my door. He called me a "thief," a "swindler,"
and everything else. I gave him in charge for the riot;
but I beg to state that for the past few days he has been to
my shop getting up a riot. All I want is peace and quiet-
ness. I don't want to fight everybody that challenges me.
(Laughter.) I'll now leave the case in your worship's
hands.

Defendant—You owe me a bet, and refused to pay.
Mr. Clubb—No, I don't.

Defendant—You do. I was a little fresh, and excited
because you did not " shell" up, Mr. Fishmonger.
(Laughter.)

Mr. Mansfield ordered the defendant to pay ss. for being
drunk.

ALLEGED DEATH OF A SON BY HIS
FATHER AT NOTTING-HILL.

At a late hour last night Mr. G. S. Brent, deputy-coro-
ner for West Middlesex, held an inquest at the Clarendon
Arms, Clarendon-road, Notting-hill, on the body of Charles
Routledge, aged 17, the son of Mr. Charles Routledge, of
13, Ebury-terrace, Notting-hill, whose death was alleged
to have been occasioned in consequence of a violent alter-
cation between the father and son on the night of Satur-
day last.

The only additional evidence adduced at the inquest was
that of

Dr. Coghlan, who deposed that he had been called in to
pee the deceased at Mr. Routledge's, Elgin-terrace, and
found him dead, but there were no marks of violence. He
had since made a post-mortem examination of the body,
and the result of that examination was that he had no doubt
that the deceased died from a sudden fit of apoplexy, which
might have been accelerated by excitement.
The Deputy Coroner said after that evidence, and there
being an entire absence of evidence that any blows had been
inflicted, he thought the jury could have little doubt as to the
cause of the death.

The jury, without hesitation, returned a verdict that the
deceased died from a sadden fit of apoplexy.
Mr. Routledge, sen., will be brought up for further ex-
amination, but as the evidence is entirely the same as that
at the inquest, after the verdict of the jury, he will, almost
as a matter of course, be discharged.

Paroquet, and Baliverne coming away slightly in advance.
As they rounded the turn into the straight Baliverne took
up the running, was never afterwards headed, and won
cleverly by a length. Ethel raced in with the favourite
from the distance, and close to the chair passed her, and
was placed second, beating Express by a neck. Master
Fenton was well up fourth, Dusk fifth, and Paroquet last.

Avalanche cut out the work at a slow pace, the others
straggling after her in the following order :—Bradfield,
Malta, Jingling Johnny, and Oldminster, with Lysiscote
and Flitch bringing up the rear. So they went along the
far side of the course; Avalanche still held the lead, Malta
having run into the second place, but in this position he did
not long continue, for both Oldminster and Jingling Johnny
passed him and took close order with Avalanche, and the
three came on side by side along the straight, where Ava-
lanche compounded, and Flitch passed her, and closing
with Oldminster and Jingling Johnny at the distance, the
three ran a very severe race home, Oldminster winning on
the post by a head, a dead heat for second place, Bradfield
was a good fourth—the others as placed. _ I

each agst Coronet and Flirtation.

On settling into their places, Coronet took the lead, his
immediate attendants being Flirtation, South Lancashire,
and Niger, Rock Scorpion bringing up the rear. No
change occurred until they went past the stand and made
for the back stretch, where Dulcibella took third place, and
in this order they entered the straight, where Flirtation
beat a retreat at the distance. Dulcibella made her effort,
but failed to get up to Coronet, who won by a length and
a half ; a neck between the second and third ; Niger was
a bad fourth; Redpole and Flirtation next ; Rock Scorpion
did not pass the post. The winner was claimed for Mr.

pounded, and gave way to both Wynnstay and Kildonan.
Wynnstay came on with the lead to opposite the enclosure,
where Kildonan was called upon, and won easily by half
a length ; Knutsford was beaten off.
After this race a rush was made to back Kildonian for
the St. Leger, and 12 fifties to one were taken about him
