SPORTING.

TATTERSALL'B.-THURSDAY.

Not a full room, and it was nearly the time for retiring
beforeppeoulation was actively resumed. It was difficult
to tell which was the favourite for the Derby. Even money
was betted between The Wiaard and Umpire, the latter.
perhaps, having a slight call. At his Bath quotations, 13
to 2, Thormanby was steady. 15 to 1 was the highest offer
&gaunt Nutbourne. Buccaneer was very unsteady, all sorts
of prices were laid against him ' • at first 25 to 1 was offered,
afterwards be advanced point by point to 14 to 1, but st
the close he receded to 20 to 1. Tom Bowline was in great
force, from 40 to Ihe advanced to 33 to 1, taken. Main-
stone was quite knocked out. His name was not mentioned
until the close of business, when 50 to 1 was offered against
him. The subjoined list of prices requires no further
comment :
