SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,
TATTERS A LL'S.

Yesterday was so near being a blank day, that it
would be absurd to make a quotation of prices. The
only bets made were 500 to 10 agst Sir G. lleathcote's
Aniorino, 1,000 to 15 agst Lord Exeter's Lucetta colt,
and 1,000 to 10 each agst Mr. Bell's Blackdrop, Lord
Westminster's Languish colt, and the Duke of Grafton's
Pastille colt.

DUTCH AND HAMBURGH MAIL.
FRANKFORT, Nov. 16.—According to a statement,
,which, however, needs confirmation, the rough esti-
mate of the expense of the Federal fortresses of Ulm
and Rastatt is 30,000,000 of florins. The payments
will be made from the Treasury of the Confederation,
but we hear, that for making the partial payments, an
agreement has been made with the house of Roths-
childs,:of this city, which, for a moderate commission,
undertakes to make the several payments on the spot
at its own risk and costs.

FROM THE DANUBE, Nov. 18.—The result of the
general meeting respecting the navigation of the
Danube, seems not to have been such as was desired ;
it has, indeed, been resolved not to give up this fine
national undertaking, but the shareholders being dis-
appointed in their expectations, would not consent to
make any further grant of the money required to
prosecute it. The offer of an advance of 50,000
florins, at 2 per cent., was indeed accepted, but com-
petent judges affirm that this sum is insufficient for
the purpose.
IIANOVER, Nov. 21.—The following particulars
are reported in public respecting our accession to the
Prussian Custom Union :—A Committee, consisting
of Members of the Board of Taxes, and of the De-
partments of the Interior, whose proceedings, how-
ever, are kept a profound secret, is engaged in exa-
mining the offers which, it is said, have been made
from Berlin. It must be observed, however, that his
Majesty the King is supposed to be personally adverse
to joining the Customs Union, and that by far the
greater part of the kingdom is of the same opinion.
Some provinces and towns are much inclined to the
Union from their position and their commercial and
local interests ; and some persons high in office in the
revenue departments are zealous advocates for it.
