BETTING IN LONDON.THoIUtDAT,

There w;s7iliinitesi ii•atirniti;cluiiil.Tristy,but a fair
amount of business was tramneted. For the Illy and Suburban
Wild Agnes, who has been first favourite for so long a time,
suddenly became greatly out of favour, •as much as 25 to 1 being
at one moment laid, while ••ffers were made to hat that she
would not run : and although towards the finish she slightly
rallied, and 50 to 1 via) taken, she had anything but a healthy
appearance. In her place, Ilayonalse filly became first favourite,
Diu to 8 being accepted freely about her ; little else was done
on this race. The Interest of the day centred apparently In
the Metropolitan, for which Dontany still remained firm,
while Conundrum was in gnat force, 10 to 1 being ►t one
period taken, but at the close 100 to ii was offered.
Lord of the Dale and Tounnalin were also In good
request at 100 to 7 each. Some little betting took
place on the Chester cup. INN to 70 was taken about Proser-
pine, and ne much so 100 tot was laid against Lecturer. For
the Two Thousand Plaudit appeared to be a shade leas firm,
7 to 1 being laid and offevol ; there were also offers of 7 to 1
against Julius, without locating with a response. Twenty
" ponies" were als,, taken about Knight of the Garter. The
only speculation that took place on the Derby was the booking
of 1000) to 110 about lEEstournel. Quotations as follow :

A PLEASING PROSPECT OF BOILED BEEF. —The
Food Committee of the Society of Arts has done good
service by calling attention to a new importation of boiled
beef from Australia. Mears. Weal, of 137, Hounds-
ditch, have ou sale a first consignment of 60,0001 be. of
Australian beef, and h►ve made arrangements for taking
a similar quantity every mouth. The meat is the best
Australian beef, not salted, but carefully stewed and
packed in tins hermetically sealed. It has none of the
common objectionable appearances or favours of preserved
meat ; and, being ready cooked, is exceedingly cheap at
the retail price of 7d. the pound without bone. This is
not more than 6d. a pound with bone, and, if it be true
that one company alone in Australia could send us as-
nuttily the beef of ten thousand fat oxen at this price, some
of us may yet live to see beef coming down in price in the
general markets of this country.
