BETTING AT MANCHESTER—WnNEsDAY.

There was very little done on future events. For the
Northamptonshire Stakes, 10 to 1 each was taken about
Rapparee and West End ; afterwards 11 to 1 was offered on
the field ; and it would be difficult to say which of the four,
Rapparee, Prince Plausible, West End, or Dusk, had the
call. 100 to 6 was offered against Carisbrook, and few be-
side him were even named. For the Earl Spencer's Plate,
Lopcatcher was backed to win above £BOO at 25 to 1. For
the City and Suburban, 100 to 7 was asked about Ducat.
For the Chester Cup, 100 to 6 would have been taken
abOut. Agag, and Fairwater was fairly supported at
25 to 1. -Nothing was done on either the Two Thousand
Guineas Stakes or the Derby. Closing prices

The Revue Orientate states that M. Jules Gerard,
the lion killer, has obtained from the Governor-General of
Algiers the necessary authorisation for the formation of a
society for exploring the desert to the south of the French
possessions in Algeria, and the establishment cf communi-
cations between that country and Senegal, either directly
by the Adrar, or Timbuctoo.

WINTER GARDEN AT KEW.—Great progress has
been made in the construction of this edifice. The two 50ft.
octagons were completed last year. Next autumn is.to see
the completion of the grand centre, 212 ft. in length by
137 ft. in breadth, and votes are now to be taken in the
House of Commons of £3,000 for heating apparatus and
£1,200 for walls for the arrangement of earth beds. When
the two wings are also built the several portions communi-
cating with each other by a long central vista, the total
length (including the vestibules) will be 583 ft., and the
supericies 48,392 ft., or about an acre and three quarters.
This temperate-house makes the vote for Kew-gardens and
grounds again large this year. The estimated expenditure
for the financial year now just expiring was £37,393, and
for the year about to commence it is £22,283.
