SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

DONCASTER RACES.
-DOWCAsTNR, SATURDAY MONT.—The present important cri-
Isis in the spurting world must render every species of information
acceptable which is connected with, or has relation to, the events
of the ensuing week; More particularly to those who, from va-
rious causes, are unable to be personal witnesses of the different
circumstances which are incident on, or precede a racing meeting
like Doncaster. Much anxiety always exists as to the number
of horses to start for the St. Leger, their names, and, more es-
pecially, the jockeys to ride them, as bets to a large amount are
always depending on either of these events; the odds, too, against
a horse, are materially influenced by this opinion entertained of
the skill and integrity of the rider. lite have therefore taken
some pains to procure the most correct intelligence on these
points,, and are enabled thus early to submit the subjoined state-
meni of the horses, which, it is confidently asserted, will start
on Tuesday next, with their jockeys:—

MORALITY OF THE NORTHERN COUNTIES OF
SCOTLAND.-At the ter►ninatfiuit of the Northern
Circuit, when the whole of the Inverness Calendar had
been :One through; it was found that. there was not
a single trial from any •of the counties of Nairn, Ross,
Sutherland, or Caithness.

The Wesleyan Methodists, in the town of Uttoxe-
ter, have kindly lent their chapel, for the purpose of
Church of England service, twice every Sunday, in
consequence of the old church having been taken down
to give place to a new structure more worthy of that
respectable town.—Pottery Gazette.
A GUINEA FOWL.—Mr. Ferguson, of Hollow
Bank, near Catterick Bridge, has now s. guinea hen
(certainly worth a guinea, if the statement be true)
Which has laid 140 eggs in 140 successive days, and
is still going oust the same rate. Many of the eggs
were placed under other hens, for the purpose of being
hatched, and they have now 80 chickens of this spe-
cies of bird.--Dublin Morning Register.
