SEEDS.

The seed trade generally is firm, and prices are well sup-
ported. The season, however, is now nearly over. For
cakes the demand is in an inactive state at late rates.

The decline of Old Calabar origimted from the unsatis-
factory character of his performance in the Bennington
Stakes, as well as from the little work he has done since,
and has to a very great extent opened the Two Thousand,
for it will not be denied that he was by far the lest public
horse of last year, and justly occupied his pride of place in
the betting. As is natural when great favourites for any
race of importance are in technical language "knocked out,"
36, i the most ungenerous suspicions are invariably indulged in
1469 3c to about all connected with them. On Saturday he was corn-
-s.O L
pletely knocked out of the betting, as much as 10 to 1 having
162 been laid that he did not face the starter. [Since the fore •
going remarks were written I have since learned that Old
9d Calabar was scratched at 11 45 this Forenoon.]
Alvediston is now first favourite. A month ago I stated
in The Sun that, owing to the shaky position of Old Calabar
and The Marquis, it would be better to let them both alone
and back Alvediston, as he was a thorough racehorse and
was sure to see a short price. lie has acquitted himself in
his trial to the entire satisfaction of his clever trainer, and
in the hands of such an accomplished artiste as Fordham
I fully anticipate his success.
The Marquis comes as the winner of The Cham-
pagne at Doncaster and the Prendergast at Newmarket
besides two stakes at Pontefract and one at Beverley.
Among those that have succumbed to him have been Impe-
ratrice, winner of the Hopeful, Johnny Armstrong, Zetland,
and Carisbrook; and with Neptunus, the winner of the Con •
vivial at York, the Tyro at Liverpool, and the Sapling at
Richmond, he ran a dead heat, mainly owing to his jockey
having had a march stolen upon him. During the winter
he was a good favourite, but upon being put into work in
the spring, he showed a great deal of temper. This has
been satisfactorily accounted for, and lately he has gone on
so well as to allay any apprehensions that might have been
entertained about him.
Caterer, in the Findon Stakes at Goodwood, receiving
slb from both Alvediston and Wingrave, only managed to
beat them by a head, and that the Woodyates horse ought
to have won was patent to everybody. Still, however, it
must be borne in mind that Mr. Naylor's horse was out for
the first time, and was besides shin-sore; while his defeat
at York by The Pilot may be excused by the fact of his
carrying 61b more thin Mr. Jackson's horse. So far as an
opinion could last week be formed of him in his clothes,
he appears to have grown but little and lengthened
nothing, so I much question his ability to cover the ground
so rapidly as will be necessary in this great contest.
Nottingham has been knocked about by the betting men
like a shuttlecock, and there is little doubt of his having
been beaten in his trial with Man-at-Arms; but as he was
asked to get before him at even weights, we are not sur-
prised at his having been easily defeated, He will no doubt
acquit himself creditably in the great contest.
Buckenham is certain to run a good horse, for his game-
ness is undeniable, and the course a ill be adapted to his
stride and action.
Wingrave ran a very long way in front of the lot in the
Derby Trial Stakes far a horse that was not thoroughly up
to the mark, and carrying a penalty. It is now thought the
change in the distance, and the extra time Hayhoe will
hare had with him, will enable him to cut a better figure.
In this opinion I entirely agree, and expect to see the
Baron's horse one of the first three at the finish, if he does
not turn out the actual winner. It must not be forgot that
last year he beat Alvediston at level weights.
Ace of Clubs is a slashing fine horse, but comes of a
family with an hereditary propensity for whistling. At
one time he was a good deal fancied for the Derby, but lat-
terly he has gone quite out of favour.
Carisbrook ran well in the Newmar ket with a heavy
weight, and it would not surprise me to see him get a place.
The colt by Stockwell has come with a rush into the
market, having, in a trial, cleaned out all Lord Glasgow's
lot. His lordship's success would be hailed with great
satisfaction, but I am afraij the noble lord has nothing good
enough in the stable to try his horses with for a race of this
description.
For Brasenose and Instructor I have no fancy.
Argonaut, from Sir Joseph Hawley's stable, it is said,
will help to swell the field, but in my opinion will be found
wanting. lie has no right to be back.ed for the Derby.
Having stated ray opinion of the different horses likely
to take part in the race, it will be seen that my fancy points
to ALVEDISTON, THE MARQUIS, or WINGEAVE, to furnish
the winner, and I fully expect to see
ALVEDISTON
recorded the winner of the Two Thousand Guineas of 1862
The field for the One Thousand will comprise the greater
number of the following :

Probable Riders.
Bertha A. Edwards.
Black Pearl
Bonny Breast-knot

Cantiniere
Ethel
Express
Gorse
Hecate G. Fordham.
Hurricane

Ito perat rice
Jung Frau S. Rogers.
Lorelei E. Sharp.
Olive Branch ..
Repose
Sappho
Physalis filly Aldcroft,
The race appears to be reduced to a match between
BERTHA and IMPERATRICE ; the only other likely to in-
terfere with the success of one of them being Ethel. The
Newmarket Stakes is a gift to Duke Rollo, and I have no
doubt ho will come warm for the Derby, as I do not believe
Sir Joseph Hawley has a better horse in his stable.

BETTING AT MANCHESTERR--SATURDAY.
For the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes, 4 to 1 was of-
fered on the field. Any advance would have been taken
about either The Marquis or Alvediston, and Caterer would
have been supported at 13 to 2. It is difficult to make a
quotation about Old Calabar. All prices were laid against
him, from 16 to 1 to 66 to 1. At the close, as near as we
cauld imdie out, his price was 50 to 1 (offered). Zetland
was freely supported for the Derby at 100 to 6, and the
same price was offered against The Marquis. For the
Chester Cup, 5 to 1 was the highest offer on the field ; Fair-
water, who has figured as second favourite for some time
past, receded to 25 to 1, and Simla to 50 to 1 (offered) 4
to 1 was offered on the field for the One Thousand Guineas,
but little was done on that event. Closing prices :
