TATTERSALL'S.

Although the York Spring Meeting has attracted vast
numbers of sporting characters, the attendance yesterday
was numerous, and several changes took place, which,
from the near approach of the Derby, are of great im-
portance. At a later hour than usual the betting closed
as follows :

On Saturday last the Lour, MAYOR, and
about 120 members of the corporation dined at the West-
India Dock Tavern, which was most splendidly arranged
as to it& rooms and gardens. It was the first great city
white-bait dinner for the year ; but as the chief Magis-
trates have been in the habit of prohibiting th? fishermen
from catching white-bait, that celebrated dainty has been
stripped of its name, and numewns dishes of it appeared
on the tables under the. wane of " gudgeons." I; is be-
lieved that the qnant,ity eaten has seldom been equalled by
the same. number of guests. There will be a formidable
competition, however, in the course of the week, as sevktaj
dignitaries of the church are to dine upon " gudgeons"
early in the week, at the West-India Dock Tavern ; and
at the end of the week a large military company will enter
into the struggle.

The Sianlese bogs were exhibited at Reading
laet weok. One of them had cut his finger, when a lady
—of course a blue-stocking, ohsrrved to the other,-,-“ Do
you feel any inconvenience from the hu,rt?'" The reply
was naive and characteristic :---“Noo, it don't Lelong to
me."—Berks Chronicle.
