SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEETING.
ANENVMARKET, SUNDAY AFTERNOON.-At the closing of
the Craven week we published the engagements for the en.
6'l; jag meeting ; we now repeat them for the purpose of show-
that the promise of sport held out by the list is not
tucelY to be delusive. To this end we have placed the usual
~rnok (an asterisk) before the names of the horses now in the
"rn, and in training; amongst those thus distinguished,
lea "ad the proportion is unusual large, will be found Worth-
aad Winchilsea, and Lord ly
Glasgow's three fillies, wh!ch
kc!ed last night. It is said that Old England and IN in-
lester will be here towards the middle of the week ; Wather-
"ns we hear is not coming.
The Goodwood lot, which is
expected either this afternoon or to-morrow, will include
fraction Red Deer and Lonsitude. While on this. sub-
tee 4, we should state that Mr.bParry's Zanoni arrived last
-Jot, and he will be entered for one of the plates, with the
ee,ct of bringing the question of pedigree within the ju.
,;set,on of he Jockey Club, and thereby deciding the objec-
-w, Made to his nomination for the Chester Cup.
B?"' grand feature of the week will be the 2,000 Guineas
Nis-s-ss,e4.„on Tuesday, for which Ides, Worthless, Winc'hilsea,
rigeon, Kedges, and one or two others are likely to
-' The list, however, irrespective of this event-and its
ts,,,'"4'4nce to those interested in the Derby cannot be over-
sic..-`4"-is intrinsically good. On the first day there are eight
snie,n'skle, of these all but the match between Cockamaroo
the
-mulet colt are expected to come off, and with
eloss,sul.tion of the plate, and one or two of the stakes that
awe- us evening, will realize sport enough for any reason-
spthapPetite. The subsequent engagements include a very
&c-,wguineas stakes, and several matches and handicaps,
considerable interest; Friday, as usual, although it
list, "",,,°,F the Newmarket Stakes, is the weakest day in the
week The subjoined is an outline of the bill of fare for the
Horses marked thus are now at Newmarket.

Next week will be a most important one for those who
have pinned their Derby faith on the Lord of Denham, or
John Day, or John Scott, or who have boldly strayed over
the field. Matters must come to something like a crisis on
Tuesday, or the world is much deluded. The running of
Kent's and Honest John's stables at Bath, is naturally cal-
culated to increase the confidence in them for the great
stakes on the eve of decision, which may be styled gentle-
men ushers to the Derby, and -lady in waiting on the Oaks,
otherwise the Two Thousand Guineas, and Newmarket, and
the One Thousand
_Guineas Stakes. Sweetmeat's excellent
performance in the Somersetshire Stakes has had the effect
of putting Libel into the market, the property of the same
owner, at an outside limit, giving a fearful blow to Iron-
master, who labours under the heavy taint of disqualifica-
tion. My opinion, however, is unchanged that all is right,
and that 15 to 1 would be a more reasonable position for
him than 1,000 to 15. Dull as the business was on
Thursday at " the glass of fashion" in Grosvenor-place,
yet it betrayed a feature or two of interest. The con-
finement of Alarm to his stable for three or four days
induced a panic amongst his supporters, and put him
only third in estimation, riding in the second place to
Weatherbit as he had done the first to Idas before there was
a screw loose, whilst a little outlay would have given the
precedence over him to either Pam or Kedger. The out-
siders were beginning to stir on the strength of the favourite
being amiss, and the hope that it might prove an epedemic ;
the worthy Sir Gilbert Heathcote, or rather his friends for
him, as the Baronet never speculates, introduced two eastern
named animals to the notice of the book-makers, and,
vastly to their delight—namely, Sutlej and Gwalior. Co-
lumbus, too, and Fitzallen, were dealt upon at most liberal
prices.
The Chester Cup will still have to undergo some startling
changes before the start, and directly the Two Thousand
Guineas are decided it will doubtless be the subject of the
principal speculation at Newmarket.
The great stake on Tuesday will bring into collision the
first favourite for Epsom, John Day's lot, and probably his
Son of Sheetanchor, Weatherbit, as well as the principal re-
presentative of John Scott's stable, Kedger, with whom the
race must rest. Deeming Cowl, as I do, an extraordinary
good horse, it confirms my opinion that Scott has not de-
ceived himself and misled his friends ; but I fancy that Idas
will at any rate cut him down on the mile, whatever he may
do at the longer distance and over the more uncongenial
course for a horse of his frame in Surrey. I confess that my
faith is pinned upon bias, and that I expect to see one of
John Day's most forward stable this season second. _ _

There will probably be six- or seven at the post for this
rich stake, which cannot well put less than 1,000 sovereigns
into the pocket of the winner, even should the field be lost
by a moiety. We may calculate fairly on seeing Idas, Ked-
ger, two of John Day's lot, Lord Orford's colt, and, perhaps,
one of Lord Exeter's and Colonel Peel's at the post. As to
the Newmarket Stakes, if Idas wins on the Tuesday, a like
success will attend him on Friday, and a similar remark will
apply to Kedger.
Longitude, sister to Ma Mi, and Prudence, appear to me
to have the best chances for the Thousand Guineas Stakes on,
Thursday, and I have put them in what I imagine to be the
probable order of their passing the Judge's chair.
There is every indication of the coming meeting being one
of the most interesting for some years past ; and I trust that
the wish alone may not prove to have been " father to the
thought."
The very large entry for the Emperor of Russia's donation,
for what ought to be called " The Czar's Cup," at Ascot,
amounting to twenty-six, is worthy, in quantity and seem-
ing quality, of the Imperial liberality. Alice Hawthorn,
Nutwith, Foigh-a-Ballagh, Ithuriel, The Cure, Orlando,
Ratan, Alarm, Cowl, Kedger, and Pam, are amongst them ;
but no Idas. Such a field has not been presented for eighteen
years. In 1827, when Zinzanu was victorious, and eighteen
subscribers, there started Mameluke, Cadland, The Colonel,
Green Mantle, Bobadilla, Lamplighter, and Oppidan ; that
was a race never to be forgotten as long as memory retains
her seat. MELLISH.

COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT.
(FRom OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON INTELLIGENCE.
A beautiful schooner, of 101 tons, was launched from Mr.
Joseph White's yard, built for Sir Charles Ibbotspn ; she was
named the Anaconda. She is a splendid vessel, and likely
to be a fair candidate for the R.Y.S. cups.
In the same vard a schooner of 130 tons is building for the
Due de StackpOol, and will be launched about the middle of
next month.
In Hansen's yard there is building a fine cutter of 35 tons,
for James Saunderson, Esq., of the R.Y.S. ; and the R.T.Y.S.
cutter Fanny is being lengthened 5 feet 9 inches by the bow,
the property of J. H. M. Struben, Esq.
Ratsey has building two cutter yachts. of 100 tons
each ; one for W. Potts, Esq., of Kingstown, Dublin ;
the other is for R. W. Cooper, Esq., R.Y.S. ; they will be
launched next month ; and also a schooner of 125 tons for
Captain Ponsonby, R.Y.S.
The annual general meeting of the members of the Royal
Yacht Squadron will take place at the Thatched House Ta-
vern, on the 9th of May; there are 17 candidates to be bal-
loted for. The prospects of this national club never looked
more promising. It is expected they will have more vessels
afloat than ever before known ; it is said they have 96 at pre-
sent, and 19 more building.
Mr. Joseph White is to build for the Government, but in
his own yard at this port, a sister brig to the Daring, to be
called the Contest. The keel will be immediately laid down,
and she is to be completed by the 31st of December. Ple is
building and repairing the following vessels :
At Deptford, a new steamer, to be called the Termagant,
1,650 tons, to carry heavy armament ; and a frigate of 50
guns, to be called the Phmton.
At Woolwich he is putting a new bow to the Amphion,
42, which is in frame.
At Portsmouth, the Amphitrite, 42, has been hauled into
the basin, for the purpose of being razeed to a 26, and is to
have a new bow.
It is reported that Sir Hyde Parker will take the command
of the experimental squadron, and Sir William Montagu will
be appointed the Admiral of Portsmouth in his place.
