SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

Manchester, Friday Evening.
Notwithstanding M r. Mostyn's mare carries the '• top-weight"
for the Chester Cup, she appears to be more fancied every day,
especially in Liverpool; 7 and 71- to 1 having been the current
odds for some days there; and the latter odds may be considered
the extreme of our market; for the layers naturally become
timid, when the tide runs so strongly one way. Wentworth is
also more looked after, for 10 to 1 has found plenty of takers.
The ow siders, Chit Chat and King Cole, remain as last quoted.
To these may be added, Sir Thomas Stanlev's Violet, who finds
friends at 25 to 1. For the Derby, a few offers have been made
to back D'Edgville against the Nonplus colt, at 5 to 4. The
Marquis of Westminster's colt, Richard Roe, has been offered
against at 100 to 3.—The current odds against the Chester
Trades'Cup horses at all in demand, are as follow :-711- to 1
agst I3irdlime, 10 to 1 agst Sylvan, 10 to 1 agst Wentworth, 10
to 1 agst Whaley, 11 to 1 agst Mersey, 11 to 1 agst Zohrab (off,)
1(X) to 8 agst Magician, 100 to 6 against Combat (off,) 100 to 5

THE WATERLOO COURSING CLUB,
OVER A LTCA It, NEAR LIVERPOOL,
On Wednesday and Thursday, the 21st and 224 February, 1838.
MR, WM. NIGHTINGALE, OF CRAVEN, JUDGE.
The entries for the Waterloo Cup and Purse are new com-
plete, and comprise some of the best dogs that the gentry of this
neighbourhood have it in their power to unkeunel. There are
32 dogs named for the Cup, and 16 for the Purse, independently
of the Altcar Stakes fur the 16 beaten dogs in the first round IrCr
the Cup. The three courses cannot fail to prove an excellent
dessert, as they will afford in the whole, including first and
second ties, no fewer than 61 runs From all that we can
leatn, there is every reason to expect a held day of the most
brilliant description. The following is a correct hat of the ap-
pointments for two of the stakes .
