SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY.
The betting, except as against a few horses, was flat,
and without much effect on the quotations. It turned
chiefly on the Chester Cup, for which Blaze and Cracow
improved on last week's prices, and left off nominally
even favourites ; Cracow, however, having the call;
Jonathan Wild, War Eagle, Maid of my Soul, Glen
Saddel, and Enchanter, were also in good demand. Very
little change will be found in the Derby betting; still it
was not altogether featureless, Surplice having been
backed for 1001. at 9 to 1, and The Sheriff freely at Se
to 1, the latter being taken for 500 even agst his stable
companion, Kerann. The Steeplechase and Metropo-
litan Handicap betting does not call for any remark.

Mr. Paul Dyson, of Manchester, well known in all
the betting circles, was found drowned in a brook near
the Reservoir, on Sunday morning last. There is no
doubt that his death was accidental, his watch and
money having been found on his person.

Excnattart-mi,Ls.—Prom a paper laid before the
House of Commons last week, it appears that tho amount
of Exchequer-bills authorised to be raised, charged on
the supplies of 1848, is 18,310.7001. From this is t) be
deducted 215,2001. for Exchequer-bills paid off in money
in 1847, and provided for flan surplus of Ways and
Means to the sth of January last, and also 149,0001. for
Exchequer-bills paid off in money in 1847, by the Com-
missioners for the Reduction of the National Debt. The
amount therefore to be provided for in the present year
is 17,946,5001.
EXPENSES OF THE KAFIR WAI2.---AR estimate
of the sum that will probably be required towards de-
fraying the expenses beyond the ordinary grants for the
years 1846.7 and 1847-8, for army and ordnance ser-
vices occasioned by the Kafir war at the Cape of Good
Hope, amounts to 1,100,000/. This estimate has just
been issued from the Treasury Chambers, Whiteh*ll.
