THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 19, 1860..:

THIRD_ EDITION.

SUN OFFICE, Seven o' Clock.

TATTERSALLS'-(THIS EVENING.)

The prompt publication of the Chester Cup Handicap in
the daily papers caused some activity at "the corner,"
although the room was but poorly attended. Time, how-
ever, was chiefly occupied in perusing the spring handicaps
in the Calendar, which was laid on the table during the
afternoon. For the Two Thousand 7to 2 was the highest
offer against The Wizard, who would have been backed for
money at half a point higher. 4to 1 was taken, at different
times, to £l5O, about Buccaneer, and a disposition was
evinced to back him, coupled with Lord Portsmouth's
other colt, Plum Pudding. Lupullus was in zenewed force,
and was strongly supported at 7 to 1. For the Chester
Cup, two of John Scott's, Longrange and Viatka, enjoyed
first favouritism ; about the first-mentioned 25 to 1 was
eagerly taken, but subsequently no more than 20 to 1 could
be obtained ; 33 to 1 was taken freely about Viatka. The
other animals quoted were backed for small sums only--
chiefly in isolated bets. For the Derby, 900 to 100 were
laid aginst Umpire, and no more than 10 to 1 offered against
Thormanby, who could have been backed for much money
at 11 to 1. The other quotations call for no comment.
