SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

ASCOT RaTCRS--Szoonts Dar.
The repeat that his Majesty intended visiting the races all four
days has had the effect of drawing's much more numerous attend-
ance than is generally the case on a second day, for the assemblage
yesterday was but little inferior to the first day.
A little before one the Heath was tolerably well tiled, and the
eyes of the spectators were then anxiously turned towards the New
Mile, and at the usual hour the Royal cavalcade, consisting of
three carriages and four, approached amidst the cheerings of the
people. The Royal carriages stopped at the Grand &and, and his
Majesty alighted, and during the whole of the races was at the win-
dow, conversing with the Noblemen of his suite, or attending to
the lividness of the day. His Majesty returned in the same style
on the conclusion of the match, having apparently much enjoyed
the *pert.
The attendance of the Nobility was very good. We observed,
besides many others—
Their Graces the Dukes of Wellington, Portland, Richmond,
Dorset, Grafton, Rutland ; the Marquises of Exeter, Ttehheld,
Graham. Conyng
hans ; Earls Jersey, Orford, Sefton, Pgrentont,
Verulam, Mountcharies, &radisroke • Lords Greaves, Dunwich,
Fitzroy, G. Bentinck, Cavendish, Clarendon ; Gen. Grosvenor ;
Colonels—Russell, Synge; Captains—Leeson, Standen, Bouverie;
Messrs. Greville, Douglas, Irby, Ste. and several Officers of the
Life and Foot Guards.

His Royal Highness the Duke of York was present during the
whole of the races, and in the evening bad a dinner party. There
was also a dinner party at the Royal Cottage.
The running was on the whole very fair, and will be found ac-
curately stated as follows:
The Albany Stakes, of 50 sov. each, h. ft. for 3 yr. old colts, Bat. 71b.
fillies, Bst. 31b. The winner of the 2,000 guineas stakes, Derby,
or Oaks, to carry 51b. extra. The New Mile.
Duke of Grafton's ch. c. Norman . 1

lir. J. Pickford's ch. c. the Captain
Mr. J. Rogers's Waterman 3
His Royal Highness the Duke of York's Elizabeth, Dake of
Grafton's Paul Jones, and Mr. Lambton's cult, by Watetioo, paid
forfeit.
Betting-4 to 1 agst Waterman, sto 1 agst The Captain, and 5
to 1 apt the winner.
The Captain, at the word of command, started off at the head of
his company, and made tolerably strong running, closely followed
by Norman, and Waterman lying three lengths behind. Thus
placed, they reached the distance, when Norman went up, and
boldly challenged The Captain. Here the race became neck and
neck, and it was so contested until close home, when the former
threw himself in from, just in time to win a beautiful race by a head
only. This race proves the " glorious uncertainty of the tart"—
Waterman and Norman have run together twice at Newmarket
and twice at Ascot this year—in the first instance they ran a dead
head; in the second Waterman Non by a head. On Tuesday he
beats Norman cleverly, and be is beat by Norman in this race,
running third to the Captain's second.
The Swinley Stakes of 25 son. each, for 3 yrs old, 7st. 41b. and
4 in old, Ist. 121 b. fillies allowed 31b. The last mile and half.
General Grosvenor's cb. f. Tears, 3 yrs • . 1
Lord Tavistock's Leeway, 3 yrs . 2
Duke of Grafton's Paul Jones, and Mr. Hervey's Larissa, paid.
Betting-2 to lon Tears.
Leeway at starting jumped off with the lead, and kept it in good
style all round, closely followed by Tears, who came up at the dis-
tance, got the front, and woo the race very cleverly by three lengths ;
rode by young Buckle; Leeway by Edwards. This race racked
little interest.

_ Betting-2 to 1 against Crockery, and 6to I agat the winner.
BI Dorado made very strong running an the way to the distance,
when Ganymede, The Captain, and Crockery came alongside. This
was the beginning of one of the most tremendous races between
them all, right to the winning-post, that we have seen this year,
audits end was as good; for al Dorado won the plate by a neck
only/ and with great difficulty. Rode by Robinson.

Mr. Edwards's Knickerbocker—(Mr. Greenwood)

Mr. Davidson's Farmer George—((hwner) . .
After a tremendous time had been occupied in harnessing, the
gentlemen jockies started, and came in in the style usual in these
fancy races, keeping a most respectful distance from each other.
Habberley beating Squirrel by four or bee lengths ; the third 50
lengths behind; the fourth half a distance, and the last only about
a head short of the distance-post. We believe that the skiers were
mere mimed by the race than the spectators.
There are six races fee this day, viz.—The gold cup: the Wind.
sor Forest stakes • a sweepstakes of 30 loos each ; another of 100
sees each ; a third 15 soya each, and a plate for -which five horses
