TATTERSALL'S.-MONDAY.

There was a numerous attendance to-day at Albert-gate,
and a large amount of business was transacted. The
Northamptonshire Stakes was the event that attracted
most attention, and for this event Lecturer was in extra-
ordinary demand, anything over 5 to 2 being accepted
with avidity, and to large anounts. Ultimately 9 to 4
was taken and offered; but what with the immense sup-
port that was accorded to him at the clubs and the money
that was invested upon him here the Marquis's horse
proved to be one of the "hottest" handicap favourites
there has been for some time. Notwithstanding the furore
however, Regalia and Wild Briar were in considerable re-
quest, the former at 12 to 1 and 11 to 1, and the last-
named at 100 to 7 ; whilst Tourmalin was not wanting
friends at 1000 to 60 and 100 to 6. The other horses
backed were Flatcatcher, Miss Harriette, and Miner, who
each found friends at their respective odds. There was
very little done on the Earl Spencer's Plate, for which
Salliet appeared, however, to be the favourite, 100 to 7
finding takers. The only other transaction we noticed in
connection with this event was 1000 to 35 taken about
Miss Frances. Scarcely any betting took place on the
Two Thousand. Plaudit was still exceedingly firm, sto 2
being accepted. Nothing else was mentioned. For the
Derby the favourites were extremely quiet; 7 to 1 was
offered against the Rake, and 10 to 1 was offered against
D'Estournel. Plaudit was in considerable request, and
11 to 1 was accepted about him. A big bet of 10,000 to
300 was taken about Grand Cross, and 5000 to 25 was
booked about a new outsider—Man of Ross.
Considerable sensation was created by a notice posted in
the Room that Admiral Rous had withdrawn from the
committee of Tattersall's, of which he had been a con-
spicuous and honoured member for many years. The
cause of the Admiral's withdrawal is attributable to the
committee assenting to the re-opening of the considera-
tion of the Soiled Dove case, Admiral Rous strongly dis-
approving this course. The subjoined notice will further
explain the matter :

" March 30, 1867.

"NoncE.—The Hon. Admiral lions has requested his
name to be withdrawn from Cie list of names of the
members of the committee of Tattersall's Subscription-
room."

This notice was succeeded by the following
" Tattersall's, March 30, 1867.

" At a meeting of the committee, held this day, it was
decided that the Soiled Doye case is to be re-opened, and
will be hoard on Saturday, the 13th of April, at Tatter-
sall's, at three p.m.
(Signed) " EXMOUTH, Chairman."
Another important notification, and in express contra-
diction to ono recently issued, appeared as follows:

" Tattersall's, March 30, 1867.

" The committee are of opinion that the rule which says
that no member shall settle the account of a non-sub-
scriber' shall be annulled.
(Signed) " ExmouTir, Chairman."

OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE EIGHT-OARED RACE.

PUTNEY.-THIS DAY.

Although the weather at early morn was cast and
lowering there were a great many crack oarsmen of
different clubs and others assembled at Putney, and those
who had not paid a previous visit were much gratified at
seeing both crews out, which was hardly expected.
The Cambridge gentlemen launched their boat from the
Leander boat-house at about a quarter to 12. They went
out to try a new boat, having brought more than one
with them from Cambridge. They commenced with a
mere paddle, but it was soon quickened into a good row,
and their style, with one or two exceptions, was easy,
clean, and therefore good. It is high time, however, that
hey made their selection of the boat they aro to run in,
