SPORTIt4G.—The Derby still continues to absorb
every thought and consider-a ru nin the sporting circles,
and the eventful race of ro.Moi row over Epsom course
tor those celebrated Stakes, is so to.i attrac-
tive, that every chaise, gig, and whiskey, together
with every animal in the shape of . horse, that Lon-
don can produce, has been put in requisition for a
fortnight past. Lord FOL,EY is said to have not less
than 10,000 guineas on thy event of this great race—
' he took the odds, when Wey were in favour of ST9.
leririo, against the field —Did Pam:lran, the celebrated
driver or the Telegraph Cambridge coach, lro made
a bet of one hundred guineas% that he sees the race
for the Derby, which will probably be terminated
about two o'clock, and then ride from the race course
of Epsom to Cambridge, with the intelligence, be-
fore St. Mary's clock strikes seven, which is a dis-
tance of seventy miles, to be performed in five hours.
Lord kossmont won full £30,000 by an English
horse which he run at the late Omagh Races. Lord
CREMORNE is said to have contributed largely to this
requisition. •

Though " list not least" is a common observa-
tion, it is a ve7y ancornnion fact, that Friday Next,
being the lost, will prove the :ream Day of Drawing
of our present Lottery. A view of the numerous
Captal Prizes yet undrawn, with the consideration
of the few Numbers now remaining in the Wheel,
will irrefutably demonstrate this fact.
A short time since, the widow of a tradesman, who
resided at Datchet, departed this life; and after her
remains had been consigned to their last abode, the
family met to divide her property, when, to their in.
expressible satisfaction, they discovered a hoard, con•
-sluing of 1600. guineas in gold, silver to the amount
of a5O, and a bushel basket tilled with halfpence, :cc
which the provident lady had carefully concealed.
CoItONER"a INQUESTs.--Monday afternoon, about
three o'clock; an inquest was held before George
Hodgson, Esq. Coroner, at the House of T. Parkin,
the Red Lion, -corner of Duke-street and Henrietta.
street, Manchester-square, on view of the. body of the
Hon. Mrs. Catherine Gordon, who came by her death
by falling out of a front garret wiudow hits the street.,
about ten o'clock on Saturday morning Last, ref which
fall she died in a few minutes afterwards. It appeared
on evideHce that the deceased lived with her daughter,
and occupied the principal part of the house kept by
Mr. J. C. Williams, No. 39, Somerset-street ; that
she was nearly seventy years of age; that her servant
maid being ill in bed, the deceased went up stairs to
her room, to inquire how s!e was, and found her ra-
ther feverish. The room Lein:; close, and the wea-
ther sultry, the deceased a,ked the maid it she
would wish to have the window raised to admit the
fresh air; she s-id the would, and the deceased
went to perform that humane act, and standing
on a box that was just by the window, one of
the pulley-cords of which was !mkt:, she had to
use all her strength raising it. At length the
window went up 411 of a sudden, and the good old
Lady was precipit• ted into the Street, and was killed
on the spot. Tate Jury returned a verdict of Acciden-
tal Lath. At the Lime the accident happened, a pub-
lican was standing on the steps of the hall door, with
a couple of pints of porter in his hand, when she fell
on hum and threw him down, and both rolled off the
steps into the street, and he was so much stunned that
he was unable to rise for a few minutes, until a sol-
dier of the guards, who saw the accident, helped him
up, and tiro the body of Mrs. Gordon was carried
into the house, having breathed her last in being car- j
ried in. Nearly all the blood in her body ran down
the pavement.

Last ..veek an inquest was taken at Shipstone-Upon-
Stour, on the body of Mr. J. Salisbury Findon, of that
place, solicitor, who on Monday se'nnight rode out in
apparent good health, and was soon afterwards found
dead in a field. Iz appeared in evidence, that Mr.
Findon had fastened his lb.rse to a hurdle, on being
suddenly taken iil, and had reclimd himself against
a hedge, where he soon after died; and from the opi-
nion of medical men, his death was occasioned by the
rupture of a blood-vessel. Verdict—Naittral Dea:h.
He was in his 2.3 d year. It was a brother of Mr. F.'s,
a fine promising youth, that met his Beath from the
unforainate circums!ance of the explosion of some
tire-works in his pocket, at the celebration of the late
Jubilee ; and &Ai Saturday st'nnight, Mrs. Findou's
brother expired while eating his dinner.

Monday, as a petr woman was bargaining for some
mackarel, at the corner of Osborne-street, White-
chapel, she was knocked down by a dray, on the fore
horse of which the driver was riding, when the wheel
went over her chest, and killed her on the spot. .
