LATEST LONDON BETTING.-SATURDAY.

The large attendance at the club betokened the near ar
Fetich of some interesting event in the sporting world, and
from the increased influx of speculators rat was anticipated
that a " demonstration" would be made in respect of the
forthcoming contest at Doncaster. In this, however, all
were disappointed, and for some time the market was
languid. Business opened with a disposition to "lay,"
operators mostly choosing the names of Argonaut, Johnny
Armstrong. and Caractacue, to invest against. Sir Joseph
Mawley's bone, it was reported, was doing his work in
"stockings," and an unfavourable gallop, it was rumoured,
mused speculators to increase the odds against Argonaut.
Offers of 20 to 1 failed to obtain any response, but there
was, no doubt, a commimion in the market to accept 25 to I,
which price could not be obtained. After long prices had
been laid against Johnny Armstrong, his supporters
eanse to the rescue and appeared anxious to. back
their north country pet at 25 to 1. These odds,
however, could not be got, and 20 to 1 being
the highest offer, Mr. Fobert's animal remained nominally
at previous quotations without any investment having been
made. At one time even money was laid that " Johnny"
did not roe, but 10 " ponies " to 1 having been taken
about the two neighbours—Stockwell colt and Johnny
Armstrong—seemed to question the accuracy of the pro-
moter of the report that Mr. Fobert's horse would be an ab-
sentee on Wednesday week. Caraetacus was again very
mihealthy, and to arrive at the proper tone of the market
regarding this horse required considerable tact. A sort of
" holding together" 10 to 1 was accepted iu one part of
the room ; in author 11 " monkeys" to 1, it was di dared,
amid be taken, whilst further off lb to 1 could have been
obtained "on the quiet." The three leading favourite. and
the Stockwell colt were firm at their quotations. Closing
