MANCHESTER.—Fe I DAY.
In the absence of the leading members, who have spent
the week at the York and Melton meetings, the betting
upon forthcoming events has been of too little importance
to need any remark, until yesterday, when Filius wss in
great force for the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes, com-
mencing at 10 to 1, and ultimately 4 to 1 was taken; the
layers, however, were determined not to be outdone, and
at the close 41 to 1 was currently offered on the field. For
the Chester Cup, Bethgelert was hacked to win a few
thousands at the rate of 1000 to 30 ; 12 to 1 was taken
about Hothorpe; and 100 to .6, several times, about
Nancy ; and 25 to 1 about Filing for the Derby. To-day
the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes was again the theme
of conversation, and Filius was in demand at 3 to 1, being
the highest offer against him at the close. The following
aro the latest quotations:—

Mr. H.rrison's King of Trumps, Sally Warfoot colt,
colt by Prince Caradoc out of Miss Julia Bennett, and
Make-ready, have left Shepherd's stables, and will in
future be trained by T. Dawson. King of Trumps and
Sally Warfoot colt are reported to be " all to pieces."
The removal has made quite a sensation in the north.
Bell's Life remarks, " At Tattersall's, on Thursday,
Nancy, the only animal backed for a large amount, was in
force at 16 to 1 ; the Hull " price current" represents her
to be going well and certain to win, and the cash is being
sent up daily to a great amount ; should she " throw out"
there will be a fearful " gettin-up."

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET,
FRIDAY, APRIL 23. •
The demand in the early part of the week was extensive,
and although for the last day or two it has been more mode-
rate, the quantity of thesunent qualities of American is still
so small, that holders of these descriptions have obtained an
advance of id. per lb., at which rate, however, the market has
closed without spirit, and the: inferior sorts are rather lower.
The arrivals this week are, however, considerable, though not
yet fairly upon the market. Brazil, Egyptian, and Surat have
all been in steady request, at last week's rates. Speculators
have taken 10,250 American, 980 Pernarns, 300 Bahia. 370 y.gyp-,
flan and 1230 Surat, and there are reported for export 5780
American, 400 Pernams, and 310 Surat.
