The late Newtaarket Meetin was tlie most
numerous that has been known since the memo-
rable Hanibletonian race. The Austrian Ambas-
sador., who wished to be present at the running
between Sir Joshua and Mho da Puta, was, with
many others, detained on the road for want of
horses, ,and was thus unfortunately 'deprived of
the sport.
The Hon. Mr. NEVILLE has been offered 10,000
guineas for his horse Sir Joshua.
We know not why it is, but so it is, that.per-
sons who came into life in the month of April,
are not generally supposed to have many conjuring
faculties about them. From this opinion, we pre-
sume, arose. the custom of calling the first of ibis
month April 'Fool-day. Certain it is, however,
that in this month last year came forth, that the
possession of which (even if he were born in
April) would give the owner the reputation of a
Soloutirn 4, we allude to the two Prizes of 30,0001.
sold by Bisti, and drawn on the very day:of
which this is the Anniversary. The recollection
of this will no doubt (as there are two Prizes of
30,0001. in the present Lottery), induce many to
pay a visit at Charing Cross or Coruhill, before
night. ,

RICHARDSON, GOODLUCK, and CO. respectfully
solicit the patronage of the Public, in the present
State Lottery, which begins drawing on the 14th
of May— The Scheme, though consisting of 6000
Tickets less than tbelast, contains two Prizes of
30,0001., besides 50 other'Capitals. Tickets and
Shares are on sale at the fortunate Offices of
IttcnAnosoN, GC►oDLUCK, and CO.' Cornhill and
Charing-Cross, where all purchasers, on or be-
fore the 27th of this month, will receive their pro.,
