Sporting Intelligence. Acoany, Noy, 26, 1847, The sporting world has been in a stew for the last month. The intelligence that “Smoke,” the Cattaraugus Indian warrior, and the great “Steeprock,” of the Tona- wanda tribe, were to contend in & foot race of ten miler, a iner nnlonty for @ purse of $600, created a tremendous seneation | verse tastes of the purchaser among the sporting gentlemen. ‘The place selected for | lis, (ar Feperal um, The ine handvome Bs thin great struggle between two Indians, who entertain | been » desideratum, which could pot be more adeduately ied M have done it.
