SPORTING.
The Gorhambury races take place to-morro- W and
next day. The programme is capital. Thee e are
seven races in the list for the first day, amo og them
theGorhaniburyHandicap, for which last year twenty-
one accepted, and twenty started. On this occli asion
eve,
eleven only are left in ; they will all run, I be
except Fat Jack. Bob Peel carries 51b. extra for
winning the Suffolk Stakes, but the distance (two
miles) will hardly suit his complexion so well as the
the
last mile and a half of the Round- Cou,rse. Out of'
fourteen two-year-olds entered in th e Park gtnestakes,
there are on the spot—Bastile, Esperanc, e f., Rooks ,
Vitula, Humbug, sister to Indolence, c. by Redslianlc
and Jamal. All entered in the Bre StAkes are als°
at Gorhambury. It will be remembei•ed that the
Acacia colt, receiving 31b., beat Archy
lumn at Newmarket, and that,Archy aftei Wards beat
the winner of that race, the same distance but over
an easier course, the hill at the end of th; Rowley
Mile not suiting the roarer. There may be a. onle, be
gument about this; but I think the Column wilt

wrong, and Archy right ; who shall say ?
in the Co-
will not be a very large field for the officers' race'
which, unless the hour of starting is advanced, tw:
o'clock being at present fixed, will probably con te
about eight; this is a bad and indigestible arreige"
ment, and, I trust, the Noble Earl of Gorhamb.'ls
will read what I say in sufficient time to remedy t tie
defect. There will be halfa dozen races on these--
cond day, and two matches, and Verulain, Lora'
March, and Lord Maidstone, are the Stewards—a st,lf-
ficient guarantee that all the new rules and reguw
tions of the last few years will be strictly adhered to.
I gave you on Monday last a rough list of the
horses likely to start for the Derby. I have vet*);
little alteration to make in that list at present ; OTI,
Ballinkeele, and substitute one of John Day's outsw.e
horses for Curator, and I should leave it until tb
day week, when we shall probably know what So.n;t
and Forth will run. John Day, senior, will rlue
Coldrenick ; William Scott and Holmes the tvvo--
softie say the Scotts will run five. Pooh ! :\lar.4l
will ride Auckland, Nat will ride Canadian, Robinson
will ride Barrier, Marlow will ride Combernletv'
Chapple for Sir Glbert, Templemvi Lasso, Chia.

Rogers must ride something in Keids lot, deponna,,

behalf of Cheops, and there remain Macdonald,
Mann, Wakefield, Lye, Whitehouse, Ca-rtwright, ev'ci

brity, but at this moment I recollect no °titer gre't

Tattersall's yard was very full yesterday ;

was very little betting. Coldremck and Attila 16:',0,

which equal even betting on those two horses age 4

by many, is thought a good moment to commence
book. You certainly might get round with giro
luck, and you would perhaps have. Robert de Goll'o§
to win you all your money; this, if the settling" t,
tolerably, heavy, would be a very profitable itrves,o
ment of time and capital. The new subscript,'
room is to be opened, I believe, on Monday next.

TATTERSALL'S.—YESTEILDA.Y.
From three o'clock until. nearly seven the re o 1 0;

but business, except against the principal favourite.4,
less animated than is usual at this season. The J'

the immense stake previously invested ; he left °l' of

Scott's stable turned their attention chiefly to At oe

P r
last moment. Canadian and Auckland had good ~,"
at 11 to 1 each (takers), but Jack, after a few be-fiet•
11 and 12 to 1, gave way ; 1,400 to 100 was laid °cor
1,500 to 100 twice, and 13 to 1 afterwards offered ord
rently. Lasso receded two or three points, and the Yivere
of Holderness and Meteor, nominally at 20 to 1, .iietis
quite friendless. Chatham. too, underwent an 01:1111.eti
decline ; 3,000 to 100 was betted twice, and no tiVO,5
left. The only outsider backed to any amount vtis,
Trooper, who is now on his road from the north ; "Slit
to 10 was taken repeatedly, with some effect on
odds. The Oaks betting was not worth notice.

IMPORTANT TO ALL THOSE WIIO E7tPECI ";.
RIVE BENEFIT FROM DRINKING SODA WATER.---Srp
Soda Water is so universally known and appreciate 7
throughout the United Kingdom, but throughout th,
world, that any eneonium on its merits might apero,

a century since, many imitators have started up, oht,e,!
