TATTERSALL'S—LAsT EVENING.

There was a very full attendance this afternoon, chiefly
attracted by the settling, as it would appear, for the opera-
tion of parting and receiving having been gone through, the
room and lawn were considerably thinned. Betting was
desultory, and except the support awarded to one or two ani-
mals there was no feature of the afternoon's proceedings
calling for especial comment. For ihe City and Suburban
Adventurer was in demand, and was backed for good money
at 7tol, at which price he left off firm. Argonaut, after
being invested on at 100 to 8 several times, found friends
who took 100 to 10 kindly, and at the close 9 to 1 was the
highest offer ; 1,000 to 80 wp s taken in one bet about
Gardener, who was in very good odour; and after his
name had been written down at the like odds to smaller
amounts, layers did not feel inclined to go on. The re •
maining quotations on the same event will speak for
themselves. A few investments were made on the
Metropolitan, for which Bedouin stood his ground firmly at
6to 1 (taken). The Two Thousand was noticeable for the
increased firmness of the favourite, about whom 6 to 4 was
the highest offer, and so sweet were intending backers upon
the French horse that shortly before the lawn was cleared 7
to 4 would have been taken, but layers would not " spring"
the fractional difference. Saccharometer had some warm

friends, who took as ohm t a price as 4 to 1, but the outlay
was by no means heavy, and the same odds could have
been obtained for asking ; 10 to 1 each was taken about
Maccaroni and Blue Mantle, and 12 to 1 to a "pony" about
Rapid Rhone. Brick, who broke down badly on Saturday
morning, was_ not mentioned. With the exception of four
"fifties" taken about Stradella, speculation on the Chester
Cup was a dead letter. But while there were plenty of offers
to take 2 to 1 that the mare did not run backers were shy,
and the layers of odds were ready to go on at the price
quoted above. Lord Clifden's position in the Derby was
considered somewhat unsteady, as after seven "fifties" had
been booked about him Hof podar trod upon his heels at
half a point more, seven and a half fifties having been taken
about the Frenchman; 11 to 1 was taken about Saccharo-
meter, and National Guard and Carnival were backed re-
spectively at 16 to 1 and 100 to 6. 25 to 1 was offered each
agat the Glenochty colt, Automaton, and Blue Mantle, and
after 45 " ponies" had been booked about Ranger 40 to 1
was accepted. A few outsiders were backed at the prices
quoted below. In the course of the afternoon it was an-
nounced that Polynesia and the Jaqueline colt were
scratched for the City and Suburban and Metropolitan ; all
Mr. G. Bryan's horses for their spring engagements, and
Cachuca for the One Thousand Guineas. Brick was struck
out of the Two Thousand at 4.10, April 11. Towards the
close of the room Mr. H. Dorling's clerk, who attended ac-
cording to notice for the sale of tickets for the " inner ring',
at Epsom, made the gratifying announcement that the
number then sold amounted to 130. The following are the

Betting-6 to 4 agst Longford, 4to 1 each agst Nabob
and Tupsley, and 5 to 1 aget Glen Aros.
As soon as they got upon their legs the running was
taken up by My Mary, who, with Nutcracker, Glen
Aros, and Yellow Dwarf, appeared some two or three
lengths in advance of their followers, to the flight
of hurdles in front of the stand, which they all got over
safely. On reaching the thorn fence beyond Glen Aros,
who appeared to run unkindly, refused and fell, leaving
his rider on his back on the top of the fence, but who was
soon after remounted, and following his horses; but, blun.
dering at the next obstruction, he was walked back to the
enclosure. The leading horses passed over the small en-
closed garden-grounds in close company, but in gong up the
barrack hill to the turning flag My Mary increased her ad-
vantage, and approached the water course (or drain) in the
hollow some lengths in front of Tupelo). Major Wombwell
breaking his stirrup leather on landing, both mare and
rider came to the ground , but she was speedily remounted
and following in the wake of Nabob. Then came Glen
Aros, who refused and ran round, which caused Nutcracker,
who was following at his heels, to blunder at it, and fall-
ing on his head, rolled over and broke his +neck, his rider
fortunately escaping without injury. The favourite and
Yellow Dwarf, who appeared outpaced, brought up the
rear, and got well over, but a long way in the rear of the
leaders. Passing in the rear of the stand, the race was left
with Tupsley, who held a long lead, which he kept to the
water jump, which he cleared half a dozen lengths in ad-
vance of Nabob, whose rider, thinking they finished, came
with a rush and reached Tupeley's quarters, but being
called to he immediately set his horse going again, and fol-
lowed in the rear of the two leaders to the fence in the rear
of the barn, where she was done with, leaving the race with
Tupaley and Nabob. the latter waiting upon the leader un-
til they crossed the water jump, when he went up in a stride
or two after landing and won an excellent race by two
lengths. My Mary and Longford were pulled up descend-
ing the hill brook, and walked home. The others were
stopped a long way from the stand.
Match, 100 goys.

Mr. Harford's (Scots Fusiliers) Cannon Ball, 10st 101 b
(Owner) 1
Captain Rowley's (2d Life Guards), Stays, lOst 81b
(Owner) 2
Betting opened at 2 to 1 on Stays, and closed at 2 to 1 on
Cannon Ball.
Stays made play over the first five fences, closely followed
by Cannon Ball, without a mistake, but at the obstruction
beyond Stays fell and unshipped her rider, who was speedily
up again, and shortly after headed Cannon Ball, and came
on with the lead to the fence, where she came to grief on
the first round, which allowed Cannon Ball to go on at his
leisure and win by 40 lengths.
