TATTERSALL'S-YESTERDAY.

With the exception of a couple of bets on the Oaks, the
business transacted this afternoon was confined to the Derby,
for which. the field, already short enough, was further reduced,
by the retirement of Muley Ishmael and the Lucetta colt, both
announced to be " amiss." The weight of the betting was on
the Melody colt, which was backed for upward of a thousand
pounds at 9 to 2, 7 to 2, and 3 to 1; towards the close the
latter price was offered in three or four quarters, and this must
be considered as his latest " market price ;" an offer to bet 7
to 2 was made, but not until most of the subscribers had left the
rcom. Launcelot fell to sto 1, taken several times, but not to
any amount ; the last offers were to lay to those odds or take
11 to 2. Theon rose to 7to 1 takers, and a point more was
taken to two or three hundred pounds, at 30 to 1 ; and Mr.
Osbaldeston's grey colt, out of Fairy Queen's dam, at 40 to,
1 ; both parties, we believe, would have gone on at the same
odds had they been offered. Nothing done on Black Bess,
Gambia, or Cormorant. A dull afternoon closed as follows :
