SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TA TTE RSA LL'S.
Every thing was so dull yesterday, that it would be-useless t..
give any quotation of odds ; we shall, tbereforepmerely state, that
all the horses for the tbreeStakes occupy the relative positions held
►y them on Moodily ; and that the only fresh ones brought into the
market were Lord Verulatn's two,O.nbre,and e. out of Laurel Leaf,
at 30 to 1 each, and 16 to 1 jointly. From what was dropt in the
course of the afternoon, it seems likely that the settlement of the
Leger bets about Cant (which, of course, will not take place till the
settling day for the race) will give rise to many disputes, as ono
party insists that they must be considered u play or pay. while the
other side avers that they are not so unless there was a specifics.
tion as to the horse being named. The point cannot well he settled
without reference to the Jockey Club, who will probably provide
for lay future occurrence of this kind. Bets are always understood
to be p.p. at Tattersall's in opposition to a regulation of the Jockey
Club ; but in the case of Cant, the bets were made before the
entries for the St. Leger, and as he is not named, k becomes a
proper question for reference.

EXTRAORDINARY PERFORMANCE:

Maocossrra. Nov. I t —Monday last a considerable concourse
of people assembled together at Hunt's Hank and along the Strange-
ways-road, to witness a feat of pedestrianism to be performed by a
person calling himself West, the champion of all pedestrians. He
undertook, within four hours, to w.lk tour miles forward, and three
wiles backward, to run four miles, to trundle a hoop four miles. to
wheel a barrow three miles, to draw a chaise two miles, to pick up
a hundred stunts placed at a yard distance from each other with his
mouth, and to deposit them separately in a basket, and to hop 100
yards in 50 hops ; allot which, we understand, he performed withift
the limited time, though much distressed. He had no remuneration,
escept the contributioos of the spectators.

Tue LATE Fscwrs.—Harry Jones, and Barney Aaron.—Tbe
stakes for this fight were given up last night at the Castle Tavern,
Holborn, in the presence of a numerous and respectable muster er
amateurs. There was a hint thrown out that Barney bad dune
wrong; but Barney's own declaration, uncontradicted by a single
probable assertion, set all suspicions at rest, and all bets were paid.
Young and Curtain.—The stakes for this fight were given up last
night, at the Royal Crown. Ratcliffe Highway, without dispute.
Perkins, the Oxford Pet, and Gipsy Cooper.—The
Among nt.ny others, is anxious to have a turn with the Pet, and he
has agreed to meet Cooper, and make a match for .150 a-side when-
ever be pleases, to fight within two or three months.

,Spring's, Sweeney attended, with his friends, agreeably to Ned's in.
siltation, to make a fresh match for larger stakes; but when the
!time was up, Ned stated that he had published the challenge wish.
'out the concurrence of his friends, and they had not approved of the
step, ma that he was consequently unable to proceed with the match.

gate Churchyard. Witness proceeded either, and
found the deceased lying on the ground in a state of
insensibility. Deceased was restored to his senses; when
he exclaimed, that he had suffered a martyrdom, and
prayed to GOD to take him out of the world. Jobn
Lewis, son of the deceased, stated that he was alarmed
out of sleep, and found his father with a dreadful
contusion on his head, and his thi,h broken. The d.•

thought that he proceeded to the window, under the
impression that it was the door, as he imagined that ha

of " Accidental Death, by mistaking the window for
the door."

Some days ago, a person in St. Ninian's, on clearing
out an old boiler, for the purpo,e of being repelled,
was surprised to find that a mouse had tormed her
abode under it, from materials the last that would have
been expected. It would appear that the boiler, on
being thrown several months ago into an outhouse, was
place with the mouth downwards, and that a poor cat.
who happened to be below at the time, was made cap•
tive. Here the animal must have been starved to death,
as nothing was known of the circumstance till the boiler
came to be repaired, when the skeleton of the cat was
found almost denuded of flesh and skin. On closer in-
sa ection, it was discovered that a mouse had contrived
to get entrance into the boiler—and, in contempt of her
ancient enemy, grimalkin, made rafters of his ribs for a
habitation—having actually formed her nest in the
skeleton, and brought up a family of little ones in the
singular dwelling.—Stirling Advertiser.
