SPORTING NOTES.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

SIR,—If any credit was ever dne to the "Coalitionists"—
it by any well-timed, well-directed act of theirs, high merit
was reflected upon "all the talents," it was certainly when
a bill was brought in for the suppression of those dens of
infamy—the betting-houses. This was a reasonable move:
one in the right direction. With respect, however, to this
act—which would appear (as many others) to be creditable,
solely creditable to our present government, and to be solely
attributable to them, and them alone—l may as well state to
you a fact which I have not had an opportunity of doing
before—a fact which you and my former readers will be
pleased to know—and that is, that for this move we have to
thank principally our noble ex-Premier as I understand
positively that he intended by the hands of one of govern-
ment to bring it into parliament just previous to his resigna-
tion, and that upon the accession of the present government
to office,they immediately completed it, and passed it. The
idea,original you will see, therefore, was solely due to Lord
Derby : the bill itself, of course, to his successors. This
is the history of the bill. By it, that portion of the racing
fraternity (which may correctly be denominated the "juve-
nile dabblers,") has been considerably diminished, if not
altogether extinguished, and has left the two legitimate
classes to lament its loss—viz., those who make the sport
their business as a pleasure, and those who make it their
business for vain.
_

At t , present season the furore for racing' has greatly
subsid .d. In a little time, however, our racing men will
come ut to pursue their business with renewed energy and
enjoyMent, as the entries already made for the coming
season (called, by sporting men generally, the "bills of
fare") are numerous and strong.
There are one or two—the great—events upon which specu-
lation is being freely made, and at this time I have usually
given you my opinion thereupon, though merely in a preli-
minary form. There is only one tteeple chase which you
know I think worth while to opiuionise upon, and that is ours
—the Grand National. For this I particularly like the
look (as things now present themselves) of Lord George and
Maurice Daley. The Chester Cup seems well for Scott, or
rather for the best horse in that stable (for two miles)—
Newminster. The Derby looks well for Dervish, Bessus, and
the Knight of St. George; and the Oaks for Meteora. These
are my present ideas, upon which I have placed considerable
hopes, being possessed of good information from the respec-
tive quarters. More anon.—Yours, &c., BREWING.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALLTS.-Thu RSD A.Y.

With the few who gathered together the handicap for the
Great National Steeple Chase at Liverpool was the princ►pal
topic of conversation; much was said for and against it, but
the majority of opinions was decidedly in its favour. Sir
Peter Laurie, as was pretty generally expected, is saddled
with the top weight. Miss Mowbray's friends, nothing
daunted by the impost of list. 91b., adhered to her with a dis-
play of confidence, which caused the odds of 200 to 14. laid at
the commencement, to be quickly reduced to 10 to 1. At 12
to 1 upwards of £l7O were invested in her support. and an
offer was more than once made to bet ''soo she beats anything
in the race. 10 to 1' was taken to 450 about Half-and-Half.
Peter was inquired after, but nothing was done to give him a
place in the subjoined list.—Chester Cup : Only Newminster,
Typee, and Tom were backed ; the odds quoted against the
last-named were taken to some money. Virago was fr►endless
at 40 to L 2,000 to 60 was taken about Newminster for the
Great Northern Handicap.—The Derby : 350 to 100 and 600 to
200 were taken about Autocrat and King Tom coupled, 700 to
50 about Dervish, 1,000 to 30 Scythian, and 2,500 to 50 Brother
to Chanticleer.—Oaks : 4 to 1 taken to .1300 about the
favourite. Closing prices :

SPORTING NOTES.

TO VIE EDITOR OP THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

SIR.—If any credit was ever due to the "Coalitionists"—
if by any well-timed, well-directed act of theirs, high merit
was reflected upon "all the talents," it was certainly when
a bill was brought in for the suppression of those dens of
infamy—the betting-houses. This was a reasonable move:
one in the right direction. With respect. however, to this
act—which would appear (as many others) to be creditable,
solely creditable to our present government, and to be solely
attributable to them, and them alone—l may as well state to
you a fact which I have not had an opportunity of doing
before—a fact which you and my former readers will be
pleased to know—and that is, that for this move we have to
thank principally our noble ex-Premier as I understand
positively that he intended by the hands of one of govern-
ment to bring it into parliament just previous to his resigna-
tion,and that upon the accession of the present government
to office, they immediately completed it, and passed it. The
original idea, you will see, therefore, was solely due to Lord
Derby : the bill itself, of course, to his successors. This
is the history of the bill. By it, that portion of the racing
fraternity (which may correctly be denominated the "juve-
nile dabblers,") has been considerably diminished, if not
altogether extinguished, and has left the two legitimate
classes to lament its loss—viz., those who make the sport
their business as a pleasure, and those who make it their
business for gain. _

. ,
At the present season the furore for racing has greatly
subsid ?d. In a little time, however, our racing men will
come ut to purette their business with renewed energy and
enjoy ent, as the entries already made for the coming
seaso (called, by sporting men generally, the "bills of
fare") are numerous and strong.
There are one or two—the great—events upon which specu-
lation is being freely made, and at this time I have usually
given you my opinion thereupon, though merely in a preli-
minary form. There is only one steeple chase which you
know I think worth while to opiuionize upon, and that is ours
—the Grand National. For this I particularly like the
look (as things now present themselves) of Lord George and
Maurice Daley. The Chester Cup seems well for Scott, or
rather for the best horse in that stable (for two miles)—
Newminster. The Derby looks well for Dervish, Bessus, and
the Knight of St. George; and the Oaks for Meteora. These
are my present ideas, upon which I have placed considerable
hopes, being possessed of good information from the respec-
tive quarters. More anon.—Yours, itc., RIMMING.

LOSS OF THE STEAM-SHIP
SAN FRANCISCO.
GREAT LOSS OF LIFE.

Tsz New York correspondent of the Times, writing
on the 7th instant, intimates the circulation of a rumour,
which had reached that city, to the effect that the new
steam-ship San Francisco, which left New York on the
21st December, had been seen on the 26th of the same
month, in lat. 38.20, long. 69, by the Maria Freeman,
with her decks swept, boats gone, and completely disabled.
The intelligencer of the Times throws discredit on the
report, grounding his disbelief on very arrogant and in-
conclusive suppositions. The results unfortunately con-
tradict his conjectures and verify the report, adding, how-
ever, considerably to the tragic interest of the occurrence
as rumoured. The San Francisco had on board 500 Ame-
rican soldiers, and the rumour caused very great excite-
ment at Washington, particularly in the government de-
partments. By the Antartic, Captain Stoffer, one of the
Tapscott line of packets, arrived in Liverpool yesterday,
we have the following interesting facts.
The San Francisco steamer, from New York to Califor-
nia, was struck by a sea and disabled 24th December, and
abandoned. On the sth January, 200 persons were taken
off by the Antarctic, (arrived here yesterday,) and others
were saved by the Three Bells, bound to New York, and
Kelby, bound to America. One hundred and forty-two
persons had been washed overboard, and fifty-nine died
after being taken off the wreck. The San Francisco had,
it is said, 750 souls on board.

tnre to accept the invitation of the committee, and pre-
siding at that annual meeting of the subscribers of the
Lying-in Hospital. He was sure too much praise could
not be bestowed on those benevolent ladies and gentlemen
who devoted their time to so good an object as promoting
the welfare and advantages of such an institution. It
afforded to poor females assistance at a time when the
comforts of a home were so necessary, and medical advice
was also necessary. His worship concluded by requesting
