Some good sport is emleeted tomorrow for the Menibers' A'Bs
and the Tureen, both of which are in heats.
LAST DAY, SATURDAT.
The August Meeting has this day terminated, and
whether we consider it as to the excellence of the sport,
or the number and rank of its visitors, or a meeting of
pleasure or business, it has seldom been surpassed. Few
races possess greater attractions to sporting men, for
the hones are invariably of the best, and create an in-
terest beyond the moment, from the importance of
their subsequent engagements, and there is hot a Race
Course in the kingdom which is more hrnoured by the
attendance of rank and fashion, or More fascinating in
its appearance on a Race-day : the attendance of some
of the most respectable of our Nobility, in carriages
and six, not only give a flattering idea of the wealth
and prosperity of the county, but carry us baCk, with
pleasing recoils ctions, to times gone by ; and to those
who, for a first time, have visited this great City, the
scene must have been at once novel and gratifying.
The events of some of the races have been important
to the sporting world, in the criteria which they have
afforded for future speculations, and though in two or
three instances the knowing gentry have paid for their
information, it will be little regretted, as it enables theist
to make their future engagements with greater certainty.
The running tki; week has been made by the outsides
for the St. Leger, of whom the btst have been selected,
and of whom many more will come out of Pontefract.
The betting since Friday has resolved itself as follows,
by which it will be seen that Memnon is now at par
with the second favourite, Trinculo and Cleveland
having got up a little :-
10 to 3 agst Memnon ; 8 to 1 on Alderman ; 8 to 1 apt Hornet;
9to 1 agst Redgauntlet ; 16 to 1 agst Cleveland; 18 to 1 apt
Addy; 18 to 1 opt 'Lineal° ; 30 to 1 apt Dauntless; 100 to 11
apt Duke of Leeds's Lot; 100 to 3 apt Mr. lleuldsworth's Lot;
40 to 1 apt Pastime.
The Course to-day was not well attended, as, like • all Saturday
meetings at York, the visitors consisting of people frond the sir-
rounding country, were obliged to be at market, nor was any
extraordinary sport expected. In our account of the visitors We
have omitted to mention the name of his Grace the Duke of Rik-
land, who has honoured the Ruts by his preserve.
A Handicap for Doncaster, of 24 says. each, for four year olds,
and upwards, has been subscribed to, and the following horses

entered:—

field, Sit. Earl Fitzwifilam's Whiskerando, Bst. Mr. Petre's Bugle,

chester, 7st. 61b. Lord Scarborough's Young Carton, 7st. 4th. Sir

A plain Tureen, value 70 guineas (Handicap) given by the Inn-
keepers and their friends fur all ages. Heats, one mile and a half.

Mr. Lambton's b. f. by Leopold, 3 yrs, 6st. 101 b. . 2 S de.
The description of these heats would be uninteresting; we shall
merely say, that Plumper made the first or waiting race woo the
second cleverly, and walked over for the third, rode by NOM; Al-
phonon by White; and Mr. Lambton's by Gray.

All of the Masonic Lodges of Pa. is have opened
subscriptions in favour of the Greeks. At a late
Meeting of that called the Bonne Union, a considerable
sum was collected, which was immediately placed at
the disposal of the Society •in favour of the Greeks.--
A subscription for this purpose has also been opened
at Gannat, in the department of the Allier, and ano-
ther at Riom. . •
h public inquiry has taken place at Dukinfield, into
the nature of the sudden death of FRANCIS Dustrartat.n
ASTLRY, Esq. which had been calumniously reported to
have been caused by foul means. It turned out that
there had not existed the slightest grounds for suspect-
-
ing such an occurrence.
CORN EXCHANGE, MARE-LANE, AUGUST 15.
Last week the supply of all sorts of Grain were moderateeexsept
of Oats, of which the quantity was large. This morning, the heal
arrivals of all descriptions of Grain are short : the weather having as
unfavourable appearance, more money is asked for Wheat, and rhos
parcels obtain Is. to 2s. per quarter advance on the terms of this day
se'nnight ; other qualities sell with rather more freedom than °Hate.
Barley is scarce, and Is. per quarter dearer. Beans do not sell freely,
but last week's prices are maintained. Peas of both sorts are ca..
altered. Oats meet a very slow sale, and prices may be reported Is.
per quarter lower than this day we'nnight. Flour is unaltered.
