At .Bowies' Tatter sail's on "Wednesday , last, an effort made to work a strong commission in favor of Fortonatus for tbe Newmarket Handicap was frustrated through ' orer-anxiety after 600 to 30 was taken, as the backer was so anxious to continue that the bookmakers refused to do business under 100 to 7. An offer to take 1000 to 60 pissed unheeded. 200 to 6 was taken about Hovfl, 1500 to 30 Salopian, 200 to 2 each Jeweller, Tullamor?, and Insomnia The latter is likely to see a much shorter price soon. The rine refuses to lay better than 100 to 6 either Paramatta or The Captain, whilst Cannon is a point longer. 200 to 25 has been taken about Sternchaser for the Australian Cup, for which race Carnage is favorite at 100 to 16 (taken and offered).
