DERBY.

Curtius, whose decline we noticed in our report of the business
transacted on Monday, received his coup de grace and is no longer
in the market ; Pelops " followed suit," his defeat at Warwick on
Wednesday by a twelve-guinea mare having been as signal as could
be desired by those who betted against him, Mr. Ridsdale's lot was
in force, four and a quarter to 1 having been taken to five hundred
pounds. Coriolanus was barely a point behind Silenus. There was
also an improvement in Darioletta and Ibrahim. Closing prices-
