The event of this gigantic contest, and criterion of racing supereniinence, continues still to engro- so large a portion of fa-hionable conversation, that 1 deem it necessary to furni-h your sporting Readers with a summary of such circumstance a-the mo-t indubitable source have presented to my knowledge.

1 hae been some time in posses. inn of ihese fids hut in racing, a on olher topic, the earliest ebullition of popular indignation is not the mo-t favourable moment for obtaining di pas-iounte information, or deducing accurate Conclusion. There exists no occasion to remind north country men thai one pre-eminent rea-on, independent of her own excellence, why Bessy Bedlam won so many -upporter-, wa the perfect -ecurily betting men felt in her owner's proverbial integrity, and re-o-lute determination to produce her fairly and honestly at the post; they knew, if Bessy wa living on the lGth September, Bessy would start, and that no earthly consideration could warp her gallant proprietor'- rectilinear attempt at victory and thi-verv confidence laid ihe foundation for the knavery of her d--leat. But, to those who are distant from Ihe 1 mu-t put forward four special evert carrying conviction to my mind, of Colonel positive intention to bear wilh him the St. Legir Stakes into Li ucolnshire.

1st. The term- promi-ed lo Frak BoYCE for riding were, ihirty it he lost, and three hundred -hotild he prove Ihe tiinner. 'id. Mr. IlKit.tNs, who has year- Colonel groom, wa direct.

-d to domicile in Bessy'- stable, from Monday morning until -he was led out for -addling the next day, an injunction complied with, excepting in a -hort absence for two meals, illiam High ins thinking it impossible any thing could be wrong, while the trainer was in personal command. 3d. Colonel Ki(, i- not a betting man; he lost only twelve pounds by the decision of the race, independently of double -takes, an unusual precaution, to ensure Bessy' -tarting even in the event of his own demi-e, the death of a party annulling all -porting engagements. 4th. Immediately on Bessy' failing in the St.

Leger race, Col. King wrote an order to the trainer to deliver up all hi-horses and furniture to Perrin, whom he decided upon a his new trainer. 1 must now allude to the horse named Murphy, who on the turf wa- termed a dark or unknown horse. Murphy had stood nearly a year in the -ame stable with Bessy, and consequently open to have their relative -peed precisely ascertained. In illustration of this branch of the subject, the following letter Ironi Colonel King has appeared in a weekly Paper: The Editor of Thf.

Aob beiujr ilesirous of every person's communicating information relative to tlie late St. Leger Race, I think it my iluty, in vindication of myself, as also for the t-ittnfaction of the public, tn relate every circumstance within iny knowledge. On Monday, the 15th, I ent from Bawtry to Doncaster, to see my mare Bessy Bedlam, and 1 perceived her scourin; in the stable, as if some farrier, or blacksmith, had piven her a dose of physic upon my asking the trainer, the reason or her (loin; so. hi reply was, that it inicht be owing her being- frightened. Having not long before this received a letter from him now in my possession, that Velocipede was I.

one, and that we had done with him, and had little now to fear, I placed such confidence in him as to think every thing was rilif. my asking him, on Monday, the I Ml) whether that unknown horse. Murphy, was to -tart lor the Leger: his reply was, he did not know. Upon my asking him whos property Murphy w.is i his reply wns again, lie did not know. Hisan-swer very much surprised me, for to my certain knowledge that unknown horse had been in training with him for nearly, if not quite, one whole year.

These statements are, to the best of my knowledge, perfectly correct. As the diversion racing has al-wayx been wilh me more for pleasure than profit, and as my conduct has hitherto stood unimpeachable by the public, as also I trust by all my no suspicion of villainy will, hope.be attached to me in this case. Could I afford any more matter lor this subject, it would give me infinite pleasure to develope it lorthe pnhlic, who, I hear, have reason to suspect some fraudulent transaction.

V. KING." The first intimation of Bessy' decrease in public favour, wa-euiblazoned about ten day before the St. Leger Race, when -he fell from to 1 to 10 to 1, ami at the same time Murphy wa fir-t named as a favourite at '2.) to 1 but was not allowed to tart for the Sweep-takes. On the Sunday, two days previous to the race, the trainer reported the result ofa trial to Col. King, in the fpllowing letter Sir I hereby inform you that I have given a good gaHop this morning with Robin Hood and Murphy, in which Murphy was beaten, and Robin Hood and Bessy Bedlam close together.

I expected to have seen him beat her easy, which was not the case. She did not please me so well as I thought she would, although it was not to be called bud, for there was very little difference in the weights, not more than 41b. Alter she got into the stable she coughed six or seven times, which frightened me very much but I had her out again, and she did not eOUgh any more, therefore all be right. I am.

Thou narrow space enclosed in gloomy brick, Where stones and sand my patient toil defy Where vegetable life describes a tick. And smoke and dust obscure the summer sky 'Tis vain, I verily believe, to try, With watering-can, or spade, or rake, or hoe, To force one violet lo unfold its eye, Or gay laburnum on thy waste to glow And I have lometime i akcd my-elf, if so It be with human hearts, amid the throng Ol cities, and their busy cares among.

Bessy carried more than Bobin Hood, and the mare beat him wilh perfect ease. F.i titer Bessi mu-t have had an unfair trial, or -he mu-t have been dostd pre-viously to it. I have rea-on to incline to Ihe latter po-ition, for I have received intelligence from -everal sportsmen who noticed her purging in the stable on Monday, independently of Colonel own observation.

Sih It is considered in all societies, and also in cry Court of Law, that anonymous information should always be received with great caution, cveu if well backed by the most circumstautial ev idencc. It being perfectly impossible that the writer of this letter can make his name public, it is for yourself to judge from the statement he makes, backed by the public opinion, and from other sources, of the facts relative to your horse Betsey Bedlam.

A certain attendant upon horses took especial care to put it out of the power of Betsey to win. When Barefoot ran, We offered for 2,000 guineas to hocus all Watts' horses, with gluudcr salve, of which he has always some in his possession, at particular seasons of the year, if an opening occur. He has by the last Leger realised a large sum. not by his own betting, but through others. Vours, Ac." TO COLONEL Kivn.

l- Sir This is intended very benevolently, and very respectfully, and will therefore, I hope, be well received. I am just returned from Newmarket, after hiving been at Doncaster, unfortunately I say unfortunately, because I could not get half my money off, which I had put upon your excellent mare, and which mire would doubt less have been alongside of the Colonel if she had been permitted to continue in health. That she was in some way poisoned and so made safe no honest man can doubt, and, in common ith many other men, I blame you exceedingly tor not removing your mare to your own stables, or to some respectable man's stables, so soon as you learned that she was fallen from 7 to lo 7 to 1, nay. to in lo j. What could be plainer language (that the mare was secured) than such betting Out such rascally tricks are not new in Yorkshire, nor in Cambridgeshire, although they an- far li s- freuuputat Newmarket than at York and Doncaster.

Vnd whilst such vagabond as attend those races are suffered to bet so deeply beyond what they are worth) frauds will continue. How is it that several men (who might be instantly named) keep their horses, and carriages, and servants, Ac. Ac. who were themselves servants, very few vears ago How to prevent such things that is the question. it is easily answered.

Let the Racing Clubs be peremptory and resolute in not paying whenever any fraud is strongly and generally suspected. Another method is. not to bet with anv man who is not a member of their Clubs, or at hast a member ol the Newmarket Coffeehouse. Another is, to adhere uniformly and constantly to the rule against play or pay betting. And let the members or the said Clubs never, in any way, employ or countenance any man or boy who has been strongly suspected of fraud.

How many were concerned in the poisoning, some vears ago, at Newmarket and vet only one punished Why don't the cliie! Racing Clubs strictly investigate and encourage information by large rewards 5 These villauiesare not the acts of one man, hut of a confederacy. Sir, you might he certain, I think, that when your marc (in betting) so miu and wit lion any manifest cause, that she was to be ma safe. And you might probably have prevented the villainy by removing her, and by having some trustworthy person constantly with the mare by night as well as by day. The thing should have been rigidly and patiently inquired into, and the bets on your marc ought not to have been paid. Excuse my name, because I am entirely a private Gentleman, and unable to prove any fraud concerning your mare, although I am a great sufferer.

AML" Irondon, Oct. 6, It's." On Sunday, 11th, a person (well known as a belter) at Bawtry, in his road to Doiica-ter, surprised Colonel Kim; with the intelligence that Bessy as to win; on the Monday she was purging, and on the Tuesday -he fell oll'altogether from weakness, when -he had run two-thirds of the race. She ran again on Friday for the Filly Stakes, and won in a canter the St. Leger distance. The following Friday she ran threi miles for the Lincoln Cup, and beat Robin Hood with perfect ea-e, not the lea-t distressed.
