THE MELBOURNE CUP.
The following are the numbers which drew horses entered for the Melbourne Cup, at Mr Ellis' Exchange Hotel. We do not know whether any of the lucky numbers are held by persons at the Thames. Although 88 horses hare been drawn yet a telegram informs us that but 31 are left in to compete, so some of the drawers will have to content themselves with the minor amount allowed to nonstarters ; —
