MONDAY NIGHT.
The subscription- rocm was crowded last night until
between twelve and one o'clock, and a large amount
business transacted upon the 2,000 Guineas Stakes and
Derby; confined, however, to a few horses, and without
leading to any material change in the market prices. In the
tirst-named event Planet had several friends, but WEIS so
steadily opposed in one quarter that an outlay of seine
hundreds at 7 to 8 did not in the least improve his position;
on the contrary, he appeared to be on the decline. CoUng:
ham was in strong force, and a few beta were laid against
The Liberator at 9to 2 and sto 1. The Derby betting was
heavy, 13 to 2 and 7 to 1 laid against Planet, and backers
not very numerous. Similar odds, taken to at least 1,000/.
about Van Tromp, who had the call at the finish. Conyug-,
ham was also an immense " pot," and at odds, fluctuating be
tween 15 and 18 to 1, must have been backed to win upwards
of twenty thousand pounds. The Liberator, again, found
staunch friend in his owner, but had many opponents.
Ulysses, a new outsider, was backed at 40 and 50 to 1, to ,win
between twenty and thirty thousand pounds. Very little
was done on the Chester Cup. The following was the rhce
current up to twelve o'clock :-

GREAT SCULLERS' RACE.
The first scullers' match of the season took place yesterday
between William Short, of Fountain-stairs, Bermondsey, 501
Richard Gilbert, jun., of 3118-stairs, at the same place, and
was throughout a spirit-stirring exhibition. The contest pars
for 201. and the championship of Bermondsey, and the dis-
tance from Battersea-bridge to the Suspension-bridge et
Hammersmith, with tide, a clear, right-away wager. 1"11
men appeared at the starting-place at a little after four, an
both appeared in excellent condition, Gilbert having
advantage in size, but both being big men • Short weighnlb,
ten stone and a half; or thereabout, and 'that after sound
training. On the signal being given both men went local
atimmense speed, Short taking the lead, and being on the
Surrey side. Off the old church Short had succeeded in
drawing his own length clear, and in this condition, boph
rowing in first-rate style, they continued, with hardly the
variation of half a yard, for nearly the next mile, when ‘7_
bert, who rowed a capital stern wager throughout, put on
dashing spirit, and notwithstanding the powerful e2Witges
of his opponent, brought the head of his boat nil
scull; Gilbert, however, could not overhaul his
oet
ppone nts
whilst the latter on his part was too evenly. matched to g
away, and the men passed under Putney-bridge with Short
to
still leading, beat Gilbert level with his boat's stern. 71n'e
encouraged by the acclamations of his friends, again a"
play, and gradually drew his boat foot by foot away from
his adversary, and won by four or five lengths. The contest
_
afforded much gratification to the numerous spectators who
accompaniedi t.
