POLICE I.NTELLIGENCE.-Tll LS DAI.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

YIELDING TO TEMPTATION.—Lucy Goddard, 13,
servant to Mr. Brooke, tobacconist, of 9A, Morti-
mer street, Cavendish-square, was charged before
Mr. Knox with stealing £3 iu gold and silver, the
moneys of her employer.

Mr. Henry Brooke said that on the 23d ult.,
having to leave town, he placed £3 in gold and
silver in packets in a drawer in the shop, and on
returning next day be missed the money, but, not
having any suspicion of the prisoner, nothing was
said to her about it. Subsequently, however, she
admitted taking the money, and Eta tcd that she
bad spent a portion of it in clothing, and the rest in
sweetmeats, and oranges and apples.
In answer to Mr. Knox, the prosecutor said that
he had a good account of the prisoner from the
landlady of the house where her parents resided,
and that induced him to take her into his service.
The reason why he had not given the prisoner into
custody before was that while be had gone to
tell her father and mother that she had robbed him
she crept out of the house on her hands and knees,
and he had not see❑ her since till last night.
Mr. Knox said he had no doubt the girl had
yielded to temptation. lie considered her a very
proper object for a reformatOry.
The father of the girl said he was sorry to hear
of her disgrace. It was no fault of his, as he had
done his utmost to bring her up respectably.
Mr. Knox remanded the girl to find a school for
her, stating that if he could not find a school for
her he must do something else.

'SPOUTING OPINIONS.

(Front the Sporting Go.lette)

The list for Monday extends to eleven races, the
principal of which are the Prince of Wales' Stakes,
the Spring Stakes, a Two Year Old Sweepstakes,
and the Match between The Earl and See-Saw.

The Spring Stakes is for two and three year olds,
and is run on the T.Y.C. Ten horses aro nomi-
nated, two of which are youngsters, whilst among
the three year 'olds are Blue Gown, Moslem, and
Naivete. The first named i 8 penalisel 121 b, which
puts him out of court ; and though Maslem
has also 'to put oia 71b extra, he. takes an
allowance .of 716, which nentraThes the penalty,
and gives him au excellent chance, should Mr.
Crawford resolve on running hint in the
face of his Two '1 housand engagement. That lie
will do so I think very doubtful. NAIVETTE, who
takes a 711) allowance, was tried to be a much better
two year old than she ever ran in public, and as I
hear she has wintered well, I must take this very
nice daughter of Stockwell and Artless to furnish
the winner.

Iu the Two Year Old Sweepstakes eight young-
sters are engiged, all of whom are " dark," except
Runaway and DIU:MR (die newly-named Brother
to Poleaxe), the latter of who► I expect to see win,
although-he has to put up a penalty of 51b.
The Princess of \Vales Stakes will probably ter-
initiate in a ►iatzh bc,,twepa Ilirrit and Ines, both
of whom are peualised 7.1 b.

The list for Tuesday contains four closed races,
inclusive of the TWo Thousand Guineas, which, as
it has 101 subscriptions, will be worth £5,650, the
richest prize ever run for at Newmarket. The field
will, nevertheless, hardly exceed 16.
Sir Joseph Ilawley, with three such strings to his
bow as Blue GOVI), Bosiqucian, and Green Sleeve,
at one time not only looked invincible, but appeared
likely to remain "master, of the situation" to the
falling of the flak. The Fates, however, -decreed
otherwise, and the constant "ringing of the clinges"
ought 'to have warned the publie to place no reliance
on touting reports. • 'however, whichever Sir
Joseph starts will turn out the winner.
. Brother to Strafford runs for the first time, and
never having seen him, I can give no opinion
respecting his merit.

Chelsea ran forward in the New Stakes at Ascot
last year; and as I cannot regard his performance
in the City and Suburban to be correct, owing to
the lad who rode him being unable to get biro out,
1 shall expect to see him run very differently with
a jockey up.
In respect of Formosa, from the manner in which
she has been backed, her owner and party seem
confident of success.

Harvester and Pace will represent the Duke of
Newcastle. The former will make his debiit on this
occasion ; but though a fine goer, I consider him to
be no match for his stable companion, Pace. Pace
never .was a roarer, nor lama ; and from the excel
lent form in which he galloped on every occasion I
saw him in the Craven week, I believe the horse
that beats him will prove the winner.
Ironmaster, though a horse of great speed, as he
showed in the Champagne, Spacer Plate, and
other races, I do not believe capable of staying this
severe mile.

Le Sarazzin showed• good form on his first ap-
pearance in public, in the Woodeote, at Epsom,
when ho beat Speculum, Restitution, and a large
field. Ile subsequently ran eight times in England,
France, and Germany, performing indifferently at
home, but winning two races at Baden Balm (for
one of which the distance was a mile and a quarter),
and the Grand Criterium at Paris, in which he beat
a field of 15 on the,:mile course. Le Sarazzin has
thus proved that he can stay the course, which none
of his opponents, except Pace, have yet done.
Moslem, from the manner he has been backed,
must have further added to the reputation he earned
by defeating Restitution in the Craven week by a
high trial at home, a 3 they now take as little as 12
to 1 about him.

Restitution will carry Baron Rothschild's colours
once more, and may run very diffiveutly to what
he did when beaten by Moslem, as the Baron does
not believe the horse showed his true form in that
race, judged through his trial with Suff.)lk.
St. Ronan, one of the " sensation " horses of the
Middle Park sale in 18G3, is considered likely to up-
set all the •' pots," and from the manner he has been
backed, not only for this race butthe Derby, there
is room to infer that the stable do not consider his
chance to be such a forlorn one as it is generally
estimated.

See-Saw, whose form was never more than a few
pounds better than Ninny, I have no fancy for.
Vale Royal I always liked, as there is not a truer
shaped .or finer actioned horse in training. Last
year he was " all to pieces," notwithstanding which
he showed fair form on two or three occasions, by
winning the North of England Biennial, in which
he beat Lady. llighthorn, Blueskiu, and two others
and the Colt Sapling Stakes at York, beating Inner-
dale..l3ut his best performance was running second
to Suffolk in the Ascot Biennial, when there. were
behind him See-Saw, Tregeagle, and The Earl and
later in the year he ran second to Typhoeus, beat-
ing Pace.

It will be seen from the foregoing remarks that 1
consider Green Sleeve, Pace, Le Sarazzin, and Vale
Royal the most likely to produce the winner; and
in making a more definite selection I give the pre-
ference to GREEN SLEEVE and -PACE.

(Front Bell's-Life.)
Only three of Wednesday's dozen events have to
dos', and a very interesting list his been m ide up,
taking it all in all. First there is the T.Y.C.
Sweepstakes, with Friponuier giving 161 b. each for
the year to Blue Gown, Leonie, Suffolk, and two
others, a feat we shall trust him to accomplish,
having the most vivid recollections of the style in
which he cut down Pericles over this same course
last year, and his many other displays of terrific
speed.

The Two Year Old Plate is scarcely of sufficient
value to bring out the first class animals waiting
for a " big go," and Director having been behind
Curicuse at Northampton, with 71b the best of the
weights, there is nothing so formidable looking as
the Frenchmen, who have Masaniello and L'Oise to
help the Lincoln. heroine.

Xi should not find a great difficulty in beating
the 71b penalised Young Melbourne colt for the 100
sows Sweepstakes, T.Y.C. ; and there is another
Sweepstakes iu the list that looks very like a walk
over for Mysotis, two of the three other "subs"
being dead.

For the Prince of Wales's Stakes, for four year
olds, over the Cesarewitch Course, the whole seven-
teen originally entered aro liable to the 150 soya
each, h ft, . notwithstanding that by declaring in
July, '66, a "fifty" could have been saved. They
appear a very bad lot now, Taraban, Ailesbury, and
Kidderminster comprising all we can trust to gallop
the course, and it is merely a question of the former
being in the vein for him to .win.
The 1,000 sous match between Julius and The
Hermit is certain to come off, barring accident, each
party being sanguine of success, although they met
only a few days ago. The Julius mon insist he can
be made pounds better during the interval allowed
Matthew Dawson for winding him up ; so can Her-
mit, perhaps—at any rate, we shall give him so
much credit, andtrust to Custance bringing him
home first somehow.
