BETTING AT MANCHESTER —FRIDAY.
The rooms were better attended than we have seen
them of late—without, however, giving any great im-
petus to betting upon the events to be decided at Good-
wood during the ensuing week ; a number of horses
were mentioned, and although speculation was very
limited, it was in one or two instances rather eignifi-
cant. For the Goodwood Stakes Zeta showed no im-
provement on yesterday's quotations, holds her position
firm, but with very little outlay. sto 1 would have
been laid against her in hundreds and other sums, but
anything less than 6to 1 was refused. Lady Tatto❑ has
many friends. There was a marked improvement in the
price and inclination to back Goldhill. A commission
to take 400 to 50 was executed, and subsequently 7. to 1
was taken. Appearances of the market indicate him
becoming as good a favourite as he was before he was
defeated for the Burghley Stakes at Stamford. There is
an evident abatement in the disposition to back Polestar,
and Johnny Taft receded from 25 to 1 to 100 to 1, of
feted. Fisherman, for the Goodwood Cup, increases in
favour, while all the other favourites, with the exception
of Vandermulin and Rogerthorpe, become more unpo-
pular. The only horse invested upon for the Nursery
Stakes is Beatrice, about whom 100 to 20 was taken.
G to 1 is taken freely about Warlock for the Eber Han-
dicap. There was some inquiry about Heir of Linne,
and offers.to take 100 to 8 about him, The following
are the quotations made up to the close of the room :

AQD ATICS.

BRIGHTON AND HOVE REGATTA.

The aquatic public will be gratified to learn that pre-
parations are being made for agrand regatta at Brighton
on Tuesday, August 20, at which prizes of the most
liberal description are offered for competition, both in
sailing and rowing. Several meetings have recently
taken , place amongst the leading residents at this
,fashionable watering-place, and the following brilliant
programme of sport has just been determined upon'
under the able chair:flans:nip of Mr. H. P. Tainplin
First Prize.—The sum. of 100/. for schooner yachts of
and above 50 tons 0.M., 'belonging to any Royal yacht
club.
Second Prize.—The Cliftouville prize of 50 guineas,
for cutters of and above P 5 tons belonging to any Royal
club.
Third Prize.—A purse of sovereigns, for four-oared
galleys.
Fourth Prize.—A purse of ,sovereigns, for pair-oared
boats rowed by amateurs.
Fifth Prize.—A purse of sovereigns, for four oared
boats, manned by amateurs.
To these are added 'Aix other likis of prize for pleasure

_ . .
Mr. T. A. Erredge, who so
.efficiently discharged the
duties of bon-. sec. at the last grand regatta at Brighton,
three years ago, seems as before kindly to have vrillm-
teered to do all the work,.and we are glad to find that
the committee have taken the hint he gave them at ' the
great dinner which followed the regatta, and have not
.dividei themselves into „yacht and boat committee's.. It
is suggeAerl on the present occasion to have the dinner
the day before the- regatta, so that yacht owners ;11,1
others may all participate in it, a very excellent idea, as:
the experience of Lowestoft and other regattas round the
coast shows that many casualties occur on the day of
.the race which preclude the principal actors from sharing
in the banquet. '
