BETTING AT MANCHESTER, MONDAY.

We had one of those very quiet days here upon which it
is very difficult to give a correct idea of the tone of the
market. The only animals we noticed any investment be.
ing made upon were Sweetsauce, at 10 to 1, and High
Treason at 25 to 1 for the St. Leger. For the events to
come off during the wcek we did not see a single transac-
tion booked. Closing prices :

ST. LEGER..

sto 2 agst Thormanby (offered)
11 to 2 agst Sabreur (offered)
6to 1 agst The Wizard (offered)
10 to 1 agst Sweetsauce (taken)

25 to 1 agst High Treason (taken)

BETTING AT MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.

Many of our subscribers being absent at Lichfield and
Stockton, the business done on the St. Leger was but of a
very meagre character ; 5 to 2 was offered on the field, and
9to 2 was taken about Sabreur. There was a disposition
to back both The Wizard and Sweetsauce. We think 7to
1 would have been taken against the former, and 10 to 1
was asked for about the latter. The only other horse we
heard named was High Treason, against whom the highest
offer was 100 to 6. Closing prices :
