CITY AND WEST-END BETTING.—(Tmrs DAY.)
The Racing Times says : The attendance of those
gentlemen interested in the " national pastime" -was most
numerous and respectable at both the City clubs: and the
West-end rendezvous. The bookmakers did not seem,
however, Overmuch pleased at the result of the
gatheririg at Aintree, but this arose more from the pe-
cuniary state of the finish than the character, either of
the sport or the attendance, which were as good as
oould be expected, bar the principal backers of horses.
The Nottingham Handicap engrossed some considerable
attention, and the business transacted showed a vast
amount of animation, and, in fact, no less than four ani-
mals were backed for some money—Syringe, Wallace,
Eskdale, and Nosegay; the former would have been backed
for a large amount at anything over 2to ;1. About Wal-
lace, 5 to 1 was taken to a good stake of money, and taken
freely. Eskdale and Nosegy were each supported with
spirit at 8 to 1.
The Good wood Stakes was productive of some animated
speculation, the backers being numerous and anxious to get
on their respective fancies at their own stipulated prices.
Gridiron still was at the top of the poll, and as little as 5
to 1 would have been taken to money, but only 41 to 1
being offered, the business transactions were few. At the
commencement so many inquiries were made after
Satellite that 7 to 1 was the highest offer, until a certain
gentleman made his appearance, when, after laying
800 to 100, thereby setting an example, lots of other were
too anxious to follow suit, but it was too late, and conse-
quently the backers fought shy.
. _ . .

Tocher was in increased favour ; 9 to 1 was the highest
obtainable price, 10 to 1 would, however, have been taken
to some amount.

100 to 8 was once taken about Rattlebone, but plenty
of layers could have been found at the above quotation.

10 to 1 was the most that could be obtained about Ava-
lanche, and Stapleton was knocked slick out, 50 to 1 being
laid and afterwards offered. Dance was brought into prc-
minent notice, and after 33 to 1 and 25 to 1 being taken to
money, he came to 20 to 1, being the longest price eventu-
ally obtainable.
For the Goodwood Cup Butterfly and Starke were the
only two about whom inquiries were made, 4 to 1 being the
offer about Butterfly, and 5 to 1 about Starke; but in both
instances a point more was asked for, and would (if it could)
have been taken. _

The St. Leger was entirely confined to the two favourites;
Wizard decidedly being in the greatest force, anything over
3 to 1 would have been snapped up, but there was no sueh
chance. 7to 2 was offered against Thormanby, and at 4
to 1 business would have Veen done to a lame amount.

The following quotations will suffice to show the present
stato of the market :

HOUSE OF L9RDS—(Tilts EVENING.)
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at five o'clock.

PRIVATE BUSINESS.
The Llanollv Railway and Dock Company, Manchester
and Milford Railway, Mid-Sussex and Midhurst Junction
Deviation, Petersfield Railway, AyiDsbury and Bucking-
ham Railway (Amendments), West-end of London and
Crystal Palace Railway, and London, Brighton, and South-
Coast Railway (Deviations and New Lines, &c.) Bills were
read a third time and passed.
NEW ZEALAND BILL.
_ .

On the motion that the bill be read a third time,
Lord LYTTLETON asked that the third reading might
be postponed, in order that the papers relating to
the colony which had but latterly been laid before Par-
liament, might be fully considered. If this were done
no doubt many of the objections that at present existed
might be removed. He should like to know whether the
Government had received any information with regard to
the disburbances in New Zealand.
Earl GRANVILLE acceded to the request for postpone-
ment, and said with respect to the second question the
latest intelligence the Government had received was to the
effect that there had been no more fighting, and the gover-
nor of the colony had retured to Auckland, and the place
was resuming a more satSAVOY.isfactory appearance.

- .
The Marquis of CLANRICARDE moved that an
humble address be presented to her Majesty, praying for a
copy of the letter addressed by the Foreign-office to the
Duke of Wellington in 1815, concerning the military fron-
tier of Savoy referred to in Lord John Russell's des-
patch to Lord Cowley of April 24. The noble
lord said he had for sonic time wished to
bring this subject under the notice of their lordships, and
in now availing himself of that opportunity, at the
outset he might say that none of their lordships
entertained a higher value of the importance of
the alliance of France with England than he did,
because he looked upon the fact of a feeling of amity
existing between two such powerful nations as • a
guarantee for the peace of Europe. The noble
marquis then entered at some length into the question
of the military frontier of Savoy and the late annexations
to the French Empire, and contended that according to the
terms of the treaty of 1815 those places were to be consi-
dered neutral, ens' he thought that there could be no cer-
tainty that these annexations would cease at Nice, but that,
on the contrary, they might possibly go on extending until
they reached Genoa. He thought the Government ought
to give the house all the information they possessed upon
the subject, because the course Franco was pursuing was
not, in his opinion, that of a great Power, which valued the
alliance of England, nor was it at all consistent with the
wish for the tranquillity of Dime.

Council of London, in favour of the bills now before Par-

PARTY DEMONSTRATIONS AND
IRELAND.
Mr. COGAN gave notice that to-morrow he would
move for leave to bring in a bill for the more efficient re-
straint of exhibition of party banners in Ireland.
Mr;_DAWSON asked for some information relative to

the riots which had taken place at Lurgan, Arms 1311,
on the Ist instant.

Mr. CARDWELL said that it was, unfortunately, 1 ame
that riots had taken place at Lurgan, but precautions 'b ad
been taken to prevent any breach of the peace on the oc) Ca,
sion in question. A magistrate was in attendance, acco
ponied by 30 effic'ent constabulary, and no disturbance b )ok
place in the town itself, but in the evening the disturbay Ice
alluded to occurred in the north-west and western sublzrbs.
He believed that two lives had been sacrificed,
and an inquiry was now going on in regard to this
fortunate affair.
In reply to Lord NAAS and Mr. COGAN,
Mr. CARDWELL said that he could furnish no addi-
tional information on the subject.
FORESHORE AT PEMBROKE.

Lord W. GRAHAM asked the Secretary to the Admi.
ralty if he could state whether the foreshore sold at Pea_
broke Dock by the Woods and Forests, five or six yetre
ago, was sold with or without consultation with the Adni.
ralty, and with or without its approbation; and whetho•
any inquiries had since been made, with a view to the re•
purchase of the same ?
Lord C. PAGET said that in 1854 the ground in ques-
tion had been purchased of Government, and the Admiralty
consented to that purchase. The parties who purchased
did not complete the purchase, but they afterwards offered
to do so, but a delay took place in consequence of the pro-
perty being in Chancery. In 1858 the Admiralty refused
to perform the contract, but were directed by the Vice.
Chancellor, before whom the case was heard, to do so.

COUNCIL OF EDUCATION.
Mr. ADDERLEY asked the Vice-President of the Com .
mittee of Council on Education whether the Educatiol
Commissioners were about to make any report ; and whether
the absence of the Duke of Newcastle would cause a sus-
pension of their proceedings ?
Mr. LOWE was understood to say tliat the proceedings
would be delayed in consequence of the absence of his
Grace the Duke of Newcastle.

BRONZE COINAGE.
In reply to Mr. HOPWOOD,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
a delay had taken place in the issue of the coinage in ques-
tion, but in consequence of the absence of the Master of the
Mint he could not supply the necessary information.
