• , the , Aug. 20.—Notwithstanding the rumours in•circula-
city remains perfectly tranq.uil. The rumour of today
is that the people of Basle have solicited the interference of the
ermanie-Diet-. The liberals say that the Diet, or rather the
executive power at Zurich, intendto_propose an alliance offen-
sive and defensive with France. Each party interprets the

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

(Written expressly for the Liverpool Standard.)

•
tiPan the various meetings which have taken place since our
Last, viz: the Egham, Foritefract, Northampton, Weymouth,
-Ashford, Yarmouth, and Stonrbridge, we have few observations
I.9cmitaske, as the interest attached. to each was confined to -the
of the respective courses. Nothing h. aving been done in
.neashire, or, as far as we can learn, in any other of the_e
''Psrting circles in the way of speculation upon •any of th
events. Egham was the most attractive in consequence of the
Presence of royalty, but the races were very indifferent. The
Great St •Leger engrosses the utmost attention of "the sporting
and notwithStanding "the treat" at Warwick, which
thereg commences this day, (Tuesday,) little else is noticed.
u'
_ are several important changes in the odds since our last,
ainly arising from the trials of the horses who are now in
tweeting training for the approaching contest. Mussulman
,448 e back considerably, and many wonder what pretensions
capthhave for a respectable place in the betting list. The
keep favourites„Muley Moloch, Belshazzar, and Rockingham
it.up steadily, and great faith appears to be placed in them.
"enge and Anne are coming up, and are now quoted at 13 to
eacb• The business effected at the prices quoted has been
YI.F;tY extensive in Manchester, and we question much whether
„uursday's and Friday's betting was not more heavy than at
ilsattersail's. Rumours have been industriously circulated that
ti'elshazzar is amiss, but it is satisfactorily ascertained to have
no foundation in truth. The following is the latest state of the
'lts: 10 to 2 agst the Duke of Cleveland's Muley Moloch, (t);
it to 2 agst Mr. Watt's Belshazzar, (t); 71 to 1 agst Mr. Watt's
