VICTORIA CLUB BETTING.

Settling on last week's events principally occupied
the attention of members present. Some specula-
tion, however, of a significant nature took place on
the St. Leger, for which event Achievement was in
strong request, 2 to 1 to all sorts of amounts, and
in one instance to a " monkey," being accepted
about Colonel Pearson's filly. Hermit, at a shade
over 6 to 4, was in healthy request, the other
transactions being indicated by the accompanying
return :
