SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

"TIPS" FOR THE CESAREWITCH.
The following are the prophecies of the various sporting
journals :

BEACON, of Bell's Life, gives five horses, viz., Schism,
Makeless filly, Tattler, La apour, and Paste, but he
awards the preference to SCHISM.

NEMO, of the Advertiser, is not so modest as " Beacon,"
as he selects almost half of the field to furnish the winner,
viz., Schism, Mouravieff, Ivanhoff, Petra, Henham Lass,
Flirtation, Rappareo, Voltella, Paste, The Rock, Calpe, and
La Vapeur. He still further reduces them by selecting
Schism, Ivanhoff, Henham Lass, Voltella, Paste, and La
Vapeur to form the second divis'on. His final selection,
subject to inserting the horse that may be first favourite on
Monday or Tuesday, is Schism, Voltella, and La Vapeur.
AUGUR, of the Sporting Life, only takes six horses
to beat the field--namely, t steroid, La Vapeur, Bally Ed-
mond, Paste, Schism, and Ivanhoff; but says he will
stand on his first loves, Asteroid a:nd La Vapear, believing
that Ivanhoff alone can overthrow this pair.
POETICAL PETER, of the Sporting Life, has been dream-
ing that Schism, Paste, and Rapparee were the first
three.

THE SPHINX, of the Sunday Times, says he does not
like LaVapeur or the Makeless filly, but that he does Ivan-
hoff, Asteroid, and Schism. Another writer in the same
journal, under the signature of " Stir Rowley Mile," goes
for Schism ; but says that Mou ravieff, if rain should
set in, will run exceedingly well.

OBSERVER, of the Field, says, ix his opinion, the race
will rest between Asteroid, Schism, Paste, and Ivanhoff ;
and, as a cockboat, Calpe will be the most useful.
BREVITY, of the Weekly Times, goes for the Makeless
filly and Schism ; failing these one of the two Russians
may do the trick—Mouravieff or Ivanhoff ; and, as an out-
sider, Bally Edmond.
TOUCHSTONE, of the Era, the only prophet in London
who gave Diophantus for the Two Thousand Guineas,
places them in the following order---La Vapeur, 1; Ivan-
hoff, 2; Calpe, 3; and the Makeless filly for a cockboat.
ARGUS, of the Morning Post, do( N not give his prophecy
till Monday ; but as Schism is to 13,;.William Day's horse,
he will, as a matter of course, follow' suit.
As many changes will take place in the betting at Tat-
tersall's this evening, I will defer my remarks on the
Cesarewitch till Monday; but think, at present, that
either Schism or Ivanhoff will furni..h the winner.

BETTING AT MANCHE STER, FRIDAY.

It is impossible to convey a correct idea of the business
absolutely done. The ebbs and flower in the betting are as
exciting as the performance of the animals in a race. As an
instance, 20 to I was offered against -Bally Edmund, which
meeting with no response, the offers were increased, until
200 to 5 was offered ; in the course of a few minutes 20 to 1
was taken freely, and he finished at 100 to 6 (taken). The
quotations will give the prices at the close of the rooms, and
that will probably be the best indication of the business
done.—Closing prices :

THE BOURBONS IN AMERICA.—A letter from
New York says :—The reception of the Comte de Paris
and the Due de Chartres into the Federal army will pro-
bably create considerable interest in Europe. Their
object in offering their services to the Washington Govern-
ment is sufficiently obvious. They are naturally anxious
to obtain some sort of military reputation, if it is merely the
credit of having been under fire, so that if the turn of the
wheel of fortune should at any time afford the Orleans
branch an opportunity of asserting their claims to the
French Throne, their representative will not labour under
the imputat ion of being a pdkin.

THE POTATO CROP.—A mercantile man has just
arrived from the west of Ireland, where he has a large
vested interest, and reports the almost total failure of the
potato crop in Roscommon and adjacent districts. The
cereals are promising, and such as have been reaped will
nearly compensate the landholders for what might other-
wise be a fearful loss to them, and consequently entail much
misery end privation.
RIBBON OUTRAGE.—The fell spirit of Ribbonism
has again began to maiifest its influence in the county
Meath. On Sunday night the house of a man named
" Jack the Slave," who resides near Athboy, was attacked
by an armed party, who fired in through the doors and
windows, completely destroying them, and would have
murdered the man if it had not providentially happened
that a party of constabulary came up at the time.
We are glad to be able to add that nearly the whole
gang have been captured owing to the activity of the con-
stabulary.
