HYDE PARK.—The Drive, Promenade, and Tal, every part, indeed, was covered with gay company for several hours yesterday. The Drives represented .n interminable labyrinth of glittering equipages, 'gilled by half the beauty of the Peerage ; and flanked, on either lid!, by long extended files of gallant cava. litrs d every rattk,  SPORTING INTtLLIGENCE.  His libacerr's stag-boon4s meet on Friday at Stoke Com. mon, at to.n.  Lord biases stag-hounds meet to-morrow at Tox Keaton. Mr. FA 2 iglielicelehrated ; a.k oflMrsetshlre fox-hounds will meet at Dkadmoor to-morrow, in the Vale of BLckmoot, near Sturminster Nbwtnn, ten miles from Blandford, and about the SnIX. distance-front Shaftesbury. Saturday the Earl of Deaer's stag-hounds met near Leatherhead, where a famous old hunted stag was turned out, which afforded an excellent day's spurt. After a circuitous run for Dearly Ave hours and a half, he was taken near the River Mole, near Paynes lull. Surrey. The Noble Earl continued the chace for upwards of two hours. Fifty pounds given by the Dublin Ormond Hunt to stike 56 guineas each, was run for on St. Patrick's Day, pursuant to notice, by the following c.lebrated hunters :—The lion. Geerge (Yeallaghau's horses, Zanga and Jokesides, aged, 13st. each, the fanner rode by Mr. Carew, the latter by Mr. Croker ; Mr. Atkinson's Sir Edward (the winner), aged, 13st. rode by Mr. Smith ; Mr. Scully's horse Banker (thejwcwd), aged, 13st. rode by the owner; Mr. O'Brien's g. g. Ma&heath (the third), four lyears old, list. 71b. rode by Mr. Unthank ; Mr. Smith's Superior, 5 years old, I2st. rode by Mr. Lee ; Mr. Crawford's Tristram, aged, 13st. rode by Mr. Pullen; two others paid forfeit. The start was given by Mr: Minehin, in a valley beneath the well-known fox earth the Devil's Bit, and from i a utiformky and the impetuosity of the riders, eager to dash forward, resembled a charge en ttailitoire for the first two miles; so far, it was a rapid ascent, and so far, the contending Nimrod* appeared to ride almost hand in band until they reached the summit of the first hill, on the brink of which stood a firm-built double stone wall, five feet four inches high ; Sir Edward (the winner), Superior, and Mackbeeth, leaped it without touch. ing it; the others, in a most sporting style, and without a baulk, but, from being too cool and not trained for a race of its peculiar description, lost some little ground. Here, for the first time, the &ace assumed a different appearance ; what first resembled a squadron, now formed in file ; desperation still was the order ofthe day ; no creeping or crawling, but straight forward flying from field to field, through a succession of steep hills, when, after a race of five miles, unexampled even in this country, it terminated In the plains of Yeornanstown. High odds at starting, it was not won in twenty minutes. The race exceeded all expectation. The five miles, with sixteen leaps, were run in fifteen minutes!  Bosnso.—At the Cambriege Axis s, E lward 1112 r, :Miaow Harrison, and Join Baker, were indicted for the murder of Jas. Pleasance. A bank took place between Dear and the deceased on the 24th of February last, when Ilarrison and Baker beat and kicked the deceased in a cruel manner, who, after lingering a few days, expired. The Grand Jury returned no true bill against Dow, and a true bill against Harrison and Baker. The facts were completely made out ha evidence, and the Jue y returned a verdict of Manslaughter. In passing sentence, the Learned Judge made some severe remarks to the prisoners, Pay. titularly to Harrison, on the enormity of his conduct towards the deceased, and the narrow escape of both prisoners in forfeiting their lives to the offended laws of their country. The sentence upon Harrison was, to pay a fine of one shilling and be imprisoned six months, and Baker to be imprisoned three months. A man, calling himself a giant, and professing to be eight feet high, was, a few days since, committed to Macclesfield Jail, on a charge of obtaining money under false pretences; his real height was about six feet six inches, and he wore a sort of stuffed boots, so as to increase his stature. Ills long legs, of course, excited suspicion, and led to the discovery of the imposition.
