LATEST MANCHESTER BETTING,
Umpire has maintained his position of first favourite with
great firmness. No liberties are taken with Silkstone, who
has staunch friends at 6 to 1; whilst anything over that
figure is freely accepted about Balder, who has been backed
to win a heavy stake both in this market and London since
Wednesday last.

THE IV TERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.

The returns of visitors for the last week, of course
contrast very unfavourably with those for the same
period in 1851. The decrease is upwards of 300,000.
It must, however, be remembered that last week
was the week of closing in '5l, and that, therefore,
in order to judge of the relative popularity of the
two displays, the public must wait also for the week
of closing at South Kensington. The last day on
which the public were admitted in '5l was Satur-
day the 11th of October, when Caere was an attend-
ance of nearly 54,000 half crown visitors, which
brought the gross total of all numbers admitted,
whether by payment or season•tickets, up to
6,039,135. Up to Saturday evening last the gross
total on this occasion was only 5,313,494; leaving,
in round numbers, a. deficiency of 725,000 as com-
pared with the visitors to our first great display-.
There are now only 12 more shilling days, end five
more days at half-a-crown, so that for the rest of
the short time, the Exhibition has still to remain
open there must be an average of 50,000 persons
daily to bring the returns up to those which flocked
to Hyde Park. Counting only time for time; there-
fore, the present Exhibition has not been so attrac-
tive as its predecessor to the extent of three-quar-
ters of a million of visitors. This deficiency, though
large, is far from being surprising when we com-
pare the halcyon days of '5l with the present dis-
turbed state of affairs everywhere abroad, and at
home a Court absent and plunged in grief, a bad
summer, and one-half of our manufacturing popu,
lation in destitution. The surprise is not that the
present Exhibition has fallen short of its great pre-
decessor, but that it is able to stand comparison
with it at all,

Financially speaking, and only taking the number
of days that each has been open, there is not so
great a difference in the receipts of the two Exhi-
bitions as the difference in the numbers might at
first lead one to suppose. 12,000 more seascn tickets
have been sold on this than on the first occasion,
and all at greatly increased prices compared with
1851. With the days that the building has yet to
be open, it is certain that the 6,000,000 of 1851
will be at least equalled if not surpassed. The 12
subsequent days of grace for the sale of goods in
November will also swell the general receipts, and
though, perhaps, not to any very important extent,
yet sufficient to do a great deal, if the deficiency is
not anticipated to be more than £25,000. It is still,
therefore, quite possible that with the aid brought
to the Commissioners' exchequer by the grand clos-
ing ceremonial, at which his Royal Highness tne
Prince of Wales is:to preside, they yet may be able
to face the guarantors with a small balance in hand
—not large enough to quarrel about, though suffi - cien tly respectable to go some way towards re-
munerating the long labours of the Exhibition
Executive. The following are the daily returns
compared with those of the closing week in
