geOETING INTELLIGENCE.

BETTING AT IVIAN CHE STE R.-TuESDAT.

The first assembly in the new year was but a thin one,
and the amount of business transacted did certainly not
make up for the paucity of members.
The Chester Cup was delicately handled in conse-
quence of the entry being partially out.
There has been nothing introduced here yet for the
Grand National.

The Derby, with a few slight exceptions (as will be
seen below), obtained all the attention.
