SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
LIVERPOOL JULY MEETING.

THURSDAY.—It has never been our good fortune to witness
a more succesiful " Cup Day," every thing, in fact, tended
to make it attractive—the list was plethoric. the race was cer-
tain to b ing out a large field, and the weather was uninter-
ruptedly fine. Crowds, therefore, flocked to the ground, and
every imaginable description of vehicle w•is brought into play;
the stands were full to an overflow ; the betting inclosure was
thronged, and both sides of the course, from the stable turn to
below the distance-post, were lined six deep. The great event
of the day was the Cnp, and it would have afforded unmingled
gratification but for the non-appearance of the Knight of the
Whistle. The reason assigned by public rumour for his
withdrawal is, that " the stable" had been anticipated
in the market by certain persons,• who having obtained early
information of the trial, had made use of it to such an extent
that forced the horse up in the betting, and prevented his party
getting on upon favourable terms; hence, that in order to
unish the offenders, it was - resoved not to run him, but to
trust to Black Beck and Rhodanthe; so goes " public co-
ntour." Whether a trainer having five horses in a race belcng-
log to declared confederates, is bound in honour to start the
one which " the public" mad think proper to make first
favourite, is " an open question ;" but as that "one" hap-
pened to be on the spot, and well enough to be quoted at 5 to I
for the Goodwood Stakes, it is clear that the aforesaid "public"
wouldhave been much better pleased had his number been tele-
graphed as a starter ; in that cafe his backers would have had no
excu'e for giving vent to their chagrin in such angry terms.
The racing began, as advertised, at two o'clock precisely,
and did not finish until latein the evening. The Cup gave an
unexpected increase to the sport, in the shape of a dead heat,
which was not tun off until long after all the evening trains
had depa, ted.
he start was beyond comparison one of the most perfect ever
seen on this or any other course. Under the personal direction
of Lord Geo. Bentinck, twenty in number were wheeled round
and got off at the first attempt so completely abreast that it was
almost impossible to sad which was leading for the first
twenty yards. Prince (Andric then took up the running,
at a moderate pace, followed by Think, Retriever, Cham-
pagne, Una, and Forester, the others in a cluster, Vulcan and
Hhodanthe being in the rear. With scarcely any change they
ran to the bridge turn, where the pace quickened, and Vulcan
and Rhodanthe drew towards the centre, Prince Cara4oc con-
tinued the running to the last turn, where he resigned it to
Champagne, who was followed cleverly by Pagan, Dentine, and
two or three others, with Vulcan and Rhodanthe
at their heels. At the di-tance Rhodanthe took the
lead, Vulcan waiting to the stand, where he caught her,
and it became 46 heads or tails " for choice. The struggle
home was interest ng in the extreme, and ended, to the de-
light of the beholders, in a dead heat. Pagan was a mo-
. ,
ilt.rate third, and Champagne fourth ; M 193 Stilton and Bel-
lona were next, but beaten off. The favourite made a sorry
figure in the race. The deeidirg t.eat was run after the
h, at for the Queen's Plate, Vulcan being the favourite
at 2 to 1 ; he made all the running, and, after a splendid
race from the distance, won by a neck, the mare never hating
got quite up.

TORIES DESCRIBED BY TORIES.—" The inconsist-
ency of Sir Edward Knatchbull, who last year moved
an amendment (on the Poor-law Bill) idLtical. with
Mr. Sharman Crawford, and with t..e very same ob-
ject—of Lord Granville. Somerset, of Mr. Goulburn,
and of Mr. H. Manners Sutton, in their present line of
conduct, is, n c lrg leave to tell those gentlemen, dis-
gusting, and' can, only be accounted fur by a greater re-
irard for place than fur principle, or fur truth. But it is
'idle and useless to throw away comment on such per-
