SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
NEWMARKET, THURSDAY.
The continuance of dry weather, however unfavourable

its influence on the race course, has proved very serviceable
to the inhabitants, and will, we have no doubt, have a bene-
ficial effect on their contributions to the fund for improving

. „
the races. It is many years since they had so full and pro-
Atable a Spring Meeting. Most of the visitors prolonged a
stay for the One Thousand Guineas Stakes run for this after-
noon ; and others, who made a flying visit to see the " Two
Thousand," came down again this mmning, enjoyed a fair
day's racing without the confusion that prevailed on Tues-
day, and left the heath after the last race in ample time for
he special train from Ilockerill. Of the day's sport we have
below given full particulars. With reference to the principal
event, we should state that, on Wednesday afternoc,n, a good '
deal of betting took place at 3 to 1 agst Pic Nic (the Estelle
filly), 7 to 2 and 4 to 1 agst Pug ; 3,4, and 5 to 1 agst Lady
Love (the Kremlin filly), and 6,7, and 8 to 1 agst Sister to
Ma Mie. The backers of Lady Love, therefore, were not a
little chagrined to find on the " reading of the list" at night,
that their pet was scratched ; nor were the layers agst Kent's
two much better pleased by the odds, instead of 6 to 5 and
5 to 4 agst, having immediately changed to 6 to 4 on them.
The races commenced at two o'clock and terminated at

four with the following results
1 Match-001. h ft. D. M. Lord Exeter's 'Wee Pet, 5 yrs
sst 61b ( Alarm), beat Sir J. Hawley's Comrade, 3 yrs, 7st 41b,
(Nat), by twenty lengths-6 to son Comrade, who ruptured
a blood-vessel early in the race.
The One Thousand Guineas Stakes by subs of 100 sovs. each,
h ft, for three year old fillies, Bst 71b. D.lll. (21 Subs. )
uke of Richmond's Pic Nic (Abdale) 1
Lord G. Pugßentinck's
2

Jr. Bowes's Heather Bell
The following also ran :—Lord Albemarle's Tisiphone
( Whitehouse), Mr. Edwards's Prudence (E. Edwards), Lord
Exeter's Timbria (Boyce), and Mr. Newton's Sister to Ma
Mie (Stephenson). Letting-2 to 1 agst Pug, sto 2 agst
Pic Nic, 4 to 1 agst Prudence, 6 to 1 agst Heather Bell,
and 8 to 1 agst Lord Exeter's two. The race was run
throughout in pretty nearly the order it finished, Pic Nic
leading from end to end, and winning easy by a length,
Pug beating Heather Bell by a neck, Prudence a good
fourth, and Tisiphone fifth—the others nowhere.
Mr. Osbaldeston's Sorella, Bst 91b, received forfeit from
Duke of Bedford's Minotaur, 9st. A.F. ; 200, h ft.
Match, 50; R.M.—Mr. Wesley's Couns9llor, Bst, (Sly),
beat Mr. Jenkin's Lycurgus, 6st. 5 to 1 on Counsellor. Won
by five lengths.
Handicap Sweepstakes of 25 sovs. each, and only 5 ft, if de-
clared. T.Y.C. (5 Subs.)
Lord Chesterfield's The Poor Soldier, 5 yrs, 7st 71b (Nat.) 1
Duke of Richmond's Pic Nic, 3 yrs, 6st 51b
Lord G. Bentinck's Discord, aged, 9st 61b 3
Lord G. Bentinck's Hartshorn, 5 yrs, 7st 8!b
Duke of Rutland's fby Beiram out of Manto, 4 yrs, 7st 31b 5
Even on Pic-Nic, and sto 2 agst The Poor Soldier. The-
race was between the two favourites, Poor Soldier, who made
all the running, winning, after a close struggle up the cords,
by a neck, the filly never having quite got up. The others
were beaten off.

The Queeu's Plate of 100 guineas ; for four yrs old, 9st 81b ;
five yrs, lOst 71b ; six yrs and aged, lOst 121 b. R.C.
Lord G. Bentinek's John o' Gaunt, aged (Nat) 1
Mr. Ramsbottom's Pine Apple, 5 yrs 2
Lord Sandwich's Plantagenet, 4 yrs
6 to 4 agst John o'Gaunt, 7 to 4 agst Pine Apple, and
7 to 4 agst Plantagenet.

Plantagenet went off at a moderate pace, and, for about a
mile and a half, had a lead of four or five lengths, when his
chance was nearly extinguished by a horseman, who, cross-
ing the course at speed, ran against and nearly knocked him
down. Immediately, however, recovering himself, he was
allowed to go on with the running, to within half-a-mile of
home ; John o'Gaunt then went in front, followed by Pine
Apple, was never caught, and won easy, by a length and a
half; Plantagenet was beaten off.
TIIE ZASONI CASE. —The Stewards of the Jockey Club,
after hearing the evidence adduced on the part of the owner
of Zanoni, and after an examination of him in their pre-
sence by veterinary surgeons, have given an opinion that
his pedigree is not sufficiently proved to qualify him to start
for any race, and that unless his qualification be proved
before starting for the Chester Cup, bets against him will
be void. We may add, that no doubt of the
identity of the animal exists, or that he is other-
wise than described—viz., the Gladiator colt, and
that it only remains to be proved that the colt de-
livered to Goodman and Higgins is the saw that was deli-
vered by them to Worley at Symell. This evidence will
shortly be forthcoming, but not in time for the Chester Cup.
A daring robbery was committed here about eleven o'clock
on Tuesday night, on the person of Mr. Wiseman, sen. Al-
though within a few yards of the Horse and Groom, he was
stopped by three men, pulled off his horse, robbed ,of his
watch, and 10/. in money, and brutally ill-treated. The
ruffians made their escape before their victim was sufficiently
recovered to give an alarm.
(RECEIVED THIS DAY.)
NEWMARKET, THURSDAY NIGHT.
In consequence of numerous departures, there was but a
small muster at the rooms this evening, and little or no bet-
ting. The following quotations, therefore, must be received
as little more than nominal :
NEWMARKET STARES.

All are struck out, except Idas, Wood Pigeon, Kedger,
John Davis, Fuzbos, and Winchester. John Davis is not here.

-UNITED STATES:
LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY EVENING.—The ship
I'm New York, Captain Allen, arrived here to• da,
irst trip across the Atlantic, with twenty passenger/I:

brings dates three days later than the last arrival, and is one
of the finest vessels that ever crossed the Atlantic. The
news of this arrival is meagre. The papers continue to dis•.
cuss the probability or otherwise of a war with Mexico.
The New York evening paper asserts, on what it declares to
be authorised authority, that a war will take place.
There had been nothing later from Texas.
A lamentable ace:dent—the loss of the Swallow, a steamer,
on the Hudson—had sent forty or fifty souls to their final
account.

The Democratic party had defeated the Whig and native
iepubiicaa parties in the municipal elections at New York.
The rate of exchange on London remained as before—
,0934.

We learn from Rio Janeiro, that on the 23d of February a
'rince was barn at that place, which event was the cause of
reat rejoicings.

NEW YORK MONEY MARKET

TrIt7IIBDAY, APRIL 10, SIX r.m.—Quotations to-day show a fur
they decline. Stonington fell off 1, Norwich and Worcester it,
Vicksburg 1, Erie Railroad I, Reading I, Farmer's Loan 1, Illi-
nois f, Canton I it, Long Island East Boston Wilmington
Railroad 1, and Harlem Pennsylvania Fives closed at yester-
day's prices. Prices tor most of the stocks in the list arc now from
7to 10 per cent. lower than those current thirty days since. All
the railroad stocks have been, for the past sixty or ninety drys,
gradually settling down, and Harlem, Norwich and Worcester,
Long Island, and Stonington, are lower than they have been within
the past six months. Canton Company is 10 per cent. lower than
on the 18th of last month, and even Illinois Slats have, within the
past few days, fell off three and four per cent. Pennsylvania Fives
have been depressed in this market and in Philadelphia, on account
of the impression prevailing that the August interest would not
be paid when due,
