BETTING AT MANCHESTER-FRIDAY..

For the Liverpool Steeplechase Sir Peter Laurie was
much out of favour, as much as 15 to 1 being offered
against hint ; 25 to 1 was taken, to win a few hundreds,
about Jean du Quesne (late Augustine) ; 20 to 1, to 251.,
was taken about Jemmy the Black. For the Chester
Cup, 500 to 30 was asked for in vain about Yellow Jack,
14 to 1 being the highest offer. Epaminondas, for this
ivent, may be considered priceless. In other respects
the following quotations will suffice :

THE POISONING OF AIIRIFER-2001.
REWARD.

Mr. John Scott has offered a reward of 2001. for the
discovery of the parties implicated in this infamous
transaction, which has created the greatest sensation in
sporting circles, as it is pretty generally believed that
the dose was intended for Fly-by-Night. The reward
will be paid to any person who shall give such informa-
tion as shall lead to the apprehension and conviction of
the perpetrator of the crime ; or if the party who actu-
ally administered the poison will furnish the necessary
information to lead to the apprehension and conviction
of the parties who incited or procured him to commit the
offence, he shall receive the said rewarl of 2001., and an
application will be made to the Secretary of State to re..
commend her Majesty to grant her mo•t gracious par.
don. We heartily hope that the scoundrels may be dis-
covered, and all pirti's concerned brought to condign
punishment.—Bell's Life.
