Seventeen started for the Derby, two only were placed.
Various are the opinions as to the running of this race; some
say it was not well entreated, but we think it was. Cedric made
nearly all the running himself, and was not pressed till he was well
landed at Tottenham Corner, when he was pushed by Shrine!.
Osmond following, and finally running him, Cedric winning by
two lengths. 6to 2 apt Reformer--; to 1 agst Cedric-0 to 2 age

FISH MARKET, THURSDAY, JUN 2 3
Billingsgate-market, this morning, displayed an excellent atom
of every description of marine production in semen ; and, in MOW
quence of the late scarcity, buyer. were eager; therefore fish mid
at much better prices than could have been expected with so Alen.
tiful a supply : tor, besides the number of ram& laden with every
kind of fish, there was an abundance, by land-carriage, from the
coast. The boat mackerel were, as usual, indifferent; the land-
carriage were bright, mostly second day. Indeed, every sales-
man appeared In his official capacity, and all seemed busily en-
ployed. Fish went off at an early hour, an evident symptom that
the market was not overstocked, notwithstanding the large quantity
brought into the market. There were two or thrm doses, which
were quickly grappled by the Wang Fongs (West-end fish-
mongers), at high
.prices. Salmon was abundant at the first of
the market, but at six o'clock not one was to be seen, and those who
had not purchased paid an advanced price for that article. The
fallowing are the prices t
