Brosnegrose, made a snatch to trot each other's horses for fifty

by Captain A.'s grey mare in 35 minutes, beating 3k. IL's by
ire minutes.
Saturday se'ardght, a match for a trifling wager, but which
excited considerable interest, and on which bets to the amount
of about 2500 were depending. *as run for over Penrith Race
Course, between one of the Yeomanry Cavalry horses, carry.l
Mg 13 stone, and a poney 13 hands high, carrying a feather—six
mile heat. Both parties were confident of success. The horse
took thelead, and performetthesia miles in 17 minutes and SS
seconds, though he walked nearly 100 yards in the last mile.
and beat the poney by three quarters of a mile. The knowing
ones generally backed the latter, and got handsomely fleeced.

Lord Deasy turned out, on Friday, a fine deer at Otelsham ; '
and, after a hard run of two hours and a half, 'the hounds came'
up to him at Blackheath. Very few sportsmen came up at the
end of the chase.
The Hampshire Hounds threw off on Wednesday at Amp.'
field, when the Duke of West-meow took the field, and en-
joyed the diversion of the chase. In the evening he dined with
the High Sheriff at the George Inn, where a grand entertain-
ment was prepared for him, of which he partook, and in the'
evening returned to London.
The Pytchley Hounds meet on Friday, at KelMards ; Satur-
day, at liarieaton.
Criattsta, MARCO 10.—Toesday, the Wreay Annual Hunt
took place. The company were numerous and respectable, and
the chase afforded excellent sport. After the hunt, about eighty'
Gentlemen sat down to a genuine John Bull dinner, prepared by
Slea ; after which the company, according to the custom of
*early 300 years, were regaled with ale; during this time the
scholars of the Wresy school, who had distinguished themselves,
were presented with prize books. This school is solely for the
education of the children of Wreay, and is endowed.—Notice of
the election of Mayor for the ensuing year having been given by
James Connell, Esq. the late President, Thomas Smallwood,
'Esq. of Durdar, was proposed as a candidate for this convivial!
and honourable office, and Scott, Ea+ of Blackball-wood,'
the former by the late Lord Mayor, and the latter by
Thompsoo, Esq. of Springfield, near Carleton, when the spew
of hands proved in favour of Mr. Scott, who was then placed
In the stale chair, and carried through the village, accompanied
by the presiding Magistrite, in his scarlet robe, with the small
silver bell of great antiquity, and the rest of the company. The
ceremony of chairing was attended with the usual music and
cheering.—The foot-races having been announced, eight or Dine,
youths, under 14 years of age, entered the bits for one of the
hats--half-mile heat. This race excited considerable interest,
and was well contested—betting 2 to 1 on Tawney, but which*
soon changed in favour of the game-keeper's son, of Barrock
Lodge; this stripling, though least was not last of" the runners,
be won in grand style. The second race was run by four men—
one mile, and won by Scott, of Hesket, who also got the gloves
for leaping.—The sports of the field being concluded, the Mem-
bers of the Hunt poured many long and Jeep libations to sac-
Ottus—" ever fair and ever young !"

Yesterday an Inquest was held at the Hand and
Crown, Church-street, Bloomsbury, on the body of
Ann Crawley, an infant. It appeared in evidence,
that on Sunday morning last, the mother of the de-
ceased having occasion to leave home for a short
time, she endeavoured to put the child to sleep ; on
which she placed it under the bed-clothes, and left it
on the bed in the adjoining apartment belonging to
Mrs. Hammond, who at the time was absent from
home. The mother did so, in consequence of not
having her own bed prepared. During her absence,
Mrs. an►mond returned home, and not being aware
that the deceased was in the bed, she turned up the
bedstead, and thought no more of it until the niother'
of the deceased came home ; when, on asking for the
child, the bedstead was immediately searched, and
the deceased found quite dead. Mrs. Hammond be-
came almost distracted at being the mile of the
child's death, and proceeded immediately to Bow-
Street, where she offered herself to justice, saying she
had murdered the child. Here she was not detained;
on which she immediately went to St. Giles's watch-

house, where she intreated that she might be de-
tained, and was apparently delirious ; she was de-
tained, after the circumstance was inquired into, till
the result of the Coroner's Inquest. Mrs. Crawley,
Mrs. Hammond, and Furzeman, the officer, were ex-
amined. No blame whatever was attached to Mrs.
Hammond, as her total ignorance of the deceased
being in the bed was proved, and having no recent
quarrel with the parents ; and nothing happening to
warrat an inference that it proqeeded from malice—
the Jury returned a verdict of Accidenue Death.
