IN the House of Commoss yesterday the Joint Stock Companies (Voting Papers) Bill was dis cussed in committee. Sir F. Coldamid, Mr. Lawson, and Mr. Serjeant Gaselee, objected to the measure in limine, and eventually clause I was struck out, and a motion carried that the chairman leave the chair, which was equivalent to throwing out the bill.

The issue was confined to the . last; mentioned and Flying Scud, the favourite • who was In aft , copies at the distance, and failed to get nearer than a bad third. The Earl Spencer's Plate succeeded, and pneluced a field of twenty-six runners, or four in excess of last year. Vomasian was the most notable absentee. Sycee. who was LlCketi for a . good ,take during the day, left off favourite at 0 to 1, while the next in demand were Out-and-Outer, Rector, and Mr. Pitt. As la always the case In sprint races there was a long delay at the post, but it did not arise so much from the overioaskty of )nekeys to get off asfrom the fracHousness of certain of the coin : petitors. The race Is easily describes!. At the distance It appeared to be reduced to a match between Miller's Maid and Satyr, but Mr. Pitt, the moment Carroll let his had loose, overhauled the pair, and won cleverly by half a length, Sir Joseph Ilawley's colours on Satyr being third. Next for decision was the Althorp-park Stakes. Suffolk, who put up i • penalty for winning at Epsom, was hacked pretty freely at 5 to 2, while double that price was obtainable about Lady • Elizabeth, who was most in deman•l after the Baron's colt. A Icouple of hundred yards of the distance the Marquis's filly took up the running shortly after starting, and won very cleverly by a length and a half from Suffolk, who could not concede to her the eleven pounds which he was asked to do. Phe winner is by Trumpeter out of Miss Bowyer, and has several valuable two-yr• ' old engagements. Twelve runners contested the tit. Us Han theme, and of these Knight Errant was soon made a good favourite, Monarch of the Diem, Christmas Carol, and Violent of the others alone being backed. As will be observed from the return below, the race resulted In a " turn-up," as Wild Agnes, the property of the Duke of Hamilton, woo, ptdlingelouble rinidloud cheering from the fielders. The Selling Plate was remarkable only for the %Rion , of the Wings of • Dove filly and Kenyon haring the first winning mount since the Liverpool meeting. The Queen's Plate, the first of theyear, tonight out six runners, in; eluding Lecturer and Regalia, the first-names of whom had odds of 6 toe free: y laid on him, and as will le. seen, won with ease by a couple of lengths from the Oaks Heroine. Lord Lyon, though coloured, did not run. Mr. Sutton being represented to Dummy, who finished the aloolute hut The Hunters' race requires no comment : hot It may he mentioned here that the winner Vomits*. was objected to by Captain Machell on the ground of not being a maiden, and the objection remains In abeyance. In the invoetkesi for two-yearolds Slimy and kehevolence divided the forfeits, the Duke of Newcastle's filly walking over. During the Intervals of sport, some speculation took place upon future ecenta. For the Chester Cup Lecturer, alter his victory In the "Guineas," was backed at 1000 to 100, 900 to lob anti 450 MIA, his closing price being 8 to 1 offered. Plaudit and Julius were supported for the Two Thousand : awl for the Derby 15 to S was taken about the Rake, and to to 1 taken and offered against the Richmond crack. Mr. Avirros moved the second reading of the Spiritual Destitution Bill. The Ecclesiastical Commissioners, ho said, had laid down a rule to apply the cum mon fund in augmentation to 300/. a year of incomes of the incumbents of parishes with a population under 5,000. They made no addi tional grant to parishes with a larger population, so that the effect of their regulation was to relieve the destitution of the clergy, and to leave the spiritual destitution of the people unrelieved. The object of this bill was to compel them to appro priate the finals to the parishes in the first instance where the greatest spiritual destitution prevailed, so that the spiritual destitution of the people might be relieved. Mr. Howas objected, on behalf of the commis sioners, to their being pinned down to a particular mode of applying their funds. It was absolutely essential that they should have a discretion in the matter. He moved the rejection of the bill. Mr. B. HOPE supported the bill. Mr. WALPOLE said he should be strongly in favour of the measure if it were to enable the com missioners to give curates to populous places as well as to augment benefices, and there were funds to do this ; but as the commissioners had not suffi cient funds in hand, when they took into account claims which would arise under existing engage ments, he could not support it. Moreover, if they adopted it, they would lose the large benefactions which were now made to meet the grants made by the commissioners. Mr. Powect was convinced that if they inter fered with the discretion of the commissioners, they would cripple their usefulness. Mr. Baucx did not think that the programme the commissioners laid down in 1864 should be in terfered with. He could not support the bill as a compulsory measure. Mr. SELwv,t should vote against the bill, but he invited Mr. Ayrton to help him to carry a mea sure founded on the recommendation of a corn niittee of the house which sat in 1862 and 1863, and which propounded a plan which would give local associations, in which the laity would bo re presented, an influence over the proceedings of the commissioners.

Lund PeuletVs Venator, by tieninia di Vcrgy, d yrs, 13st Mr. bdwards' 1 SINGULAR DEATH. —A ROWAN CATHOLIC PRIEST Throw:tem—At an early hour on Tuesday it w as r umoure d that the Rev. John Noble, known as Father Noble, Roman catholic priest, had been found drowned in the harbour at Leith, and the report before long was found to be only too true. It appears that on Monday night the rev, gentle- HMO who, along with other priests, a lay brother, and a femalei housekeeper, resided in the chapel-house behind the Roman catholic chapel, Constitution-street, bade the lay brother and the housekeeper good night, and, asking to be wakened a little before 6 o'clock in the morning, retired, as was supposed, for the night. In the morning, at the time appointed, the honaekeeper went to Mr. Noble's bedroom door, intending to waken him, when she found the door open, and discovered that he war not in the house. The private door leading to the chapel was open, which caused her and the other inmates of the house to suppose that Mr. Noble had been called during the night to visit a sick person, and therefore they did not feel any uneasiness about him. Tidings came soon afterward. that he was drowned. He was seen between one and two o'clock in the Tulbooth Wynd and on the shore. When last observed lie was walking in the direc tion of the East Pier, keeping the side of the thoroughfare next the water. Two or three constables noticed him, but not observing anything unusual in his appearance, or sus pecting that any danger w as apprehended, they did not speak to him. About • quarter before six in the morn ing, when it was low tide, a boat's crew going to sea dis covered the body in that part of the harbour opposite the entrance to the Victoria Dock. It was taken ashore, and not then being identified, it was conveyed to the hos pital. Soon after, when the body was identified, it was conveyed to the Chapel House, where Drs. Paterson and Simpson, instructed by Superintendent Grant, held a poet-raortem examination. They discovered no external marks of violence on the body, except a slight scratch on one leg, and an abrasion on one of his arms. Drowning, they useertained, was the cause of death. On the melan choly news being made known, there was a general lamentation, but more particularly among the Roman catholic population, many of whom, both men and women, wept in the streets like children. Not only by his own dock, but by all who knew him, Mr. Noble was held in high esteem. His labours for the good of his people were spoken of by all classes. His extraor dinary zeal to suppress shebeening and Fenianism was the subject of remark. It was known to his friends for some time that the rev. gentleman did not sleep well at night ; and they think that he went out to take a walk on the pier, which he was accustomed to do, and that he had stumbled over something and fallen into the water. De ceased, who was a native of Ireland, was forty-three years of age. He had been labouring in Leith for seven or eight years. His bodily health was generally good, end nothing was known to disturb his mind. The way in which he met his death is likely to remain a mystery.— &Osman.

' OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE EIGHT-OARED RACE.— The assemblage of visitors at Putney yesterday was again very large, including a great number of ladies. The &bores at Mortlake were also thronged with spectators. The Cambridge gentlemen first made their appearance on the water, the crew and weights being as under : 1. W. H. Anderson Trinity.... ...... . list. 01b. t J. M. Collard 3. J. U. Bourke 4. Hon. J. Gordon Trinity list. 41b. 6. F. E. Cutinbilmat.... King's 6. J. Still 7. H. Vdney St. John's 8. W. R. Griffiths A. Forbes, cox. They rowed up on the flood, but with a little more tide than the OVXIiIIII/1 had had on the previous day, taking the whole distance front the Aqueduct to Mortlake. They went away for the first minute at 30 strokes, in the second at 32, and the third at Si, and as they warmed to their work increased it to 35. The rowing was an improvement upon the previous day, which by many was deemed hardly so regular as before. The rowing was lively, but there is abundant room for improvement. The whole time occupied was 23 min. 3.5 see., with hardly so much wind against them as that of the previous day. It had not been Intended to take them the whole course, but they were considered to be doing so well that it was a pity to stop them. The Oxonians went out at a little after three, their crew and weights being as follows: 1. W. I'. Bowman I J. H. Fish 3. E. 8. Cs'ter 4. W. W. Wood 8. J. C. Finne 6. F. Crowder Bruenom 7. F. Welian Exet e r list. b. 8. R. O. Marsden Merton C. R. Tottenham, cox. Christ Church They went up from the London Rowing Club boat-house at an easy pace, and turned round at Mortlake, to row down with the tide. They started at 34 strokes per minute, which were gradually increeeed to 36 and 7 well pulled through the water with the least perceptible hang at the end of the feather. It was fine work, the distance down to the Aqueduct being d o n e under 20min. 22 sec. There was a good tide, and the wind favourable. The stroke was rather longer than before, I the style unconstrained. 1 RAILWAYSIGNALNZN AND SWITCHWEN'a BENEFIT Socrwrv.—Last evening • meeting of the members of this society was held in the lower hall, Exeter-hall, Mr. Paul Rapsey Hodge, C.E., in the chair. The chairman said that the hardships of the signalmen and switchmen would soon be remedied if the public knew what they were, but those hardships rested not so much with the directors as with those officials who "haggled at tallies." If the meeting persevered as the engine -driven had done they would get their desired ends, to which they were fully entitled from their intelligence, perseverance, and industry. The secre tary (Mr. Beattie) then read the report, which urged that the hours should be eight hours at all junctions, eight hours at straight road within 10 to 12 miles to London, twelve hours per day for straight road boxes outride that radius, with an hour for refreshment, the men to be changed over from night duty to day, and rice reese every where, with one clear Sunday in th ree ; an d th a t as t o t h e pay, they should have at junctions and straight read boxes within the radius, at country junctions 25A. to 30s. per week, country boxes outside the London district as Above, 22.. to 2 9.; the several rates of pay from lower up to higher to be in accordance with responsibility seniority, and merit. It was then moved a n d adopted, "That in the opinion of this meeting the present hours of labour, both of signalmen and switchmen on many lines of railway are inj urtou a to health, damaging to the interesta of railway com panies, and dangerous to the public." Further resolutions, expressing the opinion of th e mee ti ng t h at the system of time and rates of payment advocated in the report should be adopted, were also carried, and • memorial to the different railway companies based on such resolutions agreed to, the usual votes of thanks closing the pro oeediep.

This was an action to recover 10,0001. upon certain hills of exchange or promissory notes given by the defendants. Sir G. llonyman, Q.C., and Mr. J. P. Murphy were counsel for the plaintiff ; the Hon. G. Denman, Q.C., and Mr. Philbrick appeared for the defendants. The plaintiff in the action was a stockbroker, who carries on his business in Tokenhouse-yard, and be sought to recover from the defendants the sum above-mentioned, which he bad advanced to the company on behalf of cer tain of his clients. The circumstances connected with the transaction appeared to be of a rather complicated character. From the opening statement of Sir G. Hony man it would seem that the company, at the commence ment of last year, were desirous of raising about 300,000/. to pay a Mr. M'Kenxie, one of the contractors for the works, and that the General Credit Finance Com pany was applied to to assist in raising the funds, and that company again entered into negotiation with the Loudon Financial Association to assist in carrying out the proposed loan. The pro position of the directors of the railway company appeared to be that they should give bills, pable at six months, for the money that was advance d, and that a certain amount of the scrip of the company should be deposited as collateral security ; and it appeared that in the month of March lest year, Mr. Wildey, the manager of the London Financial Association, had an interview with the plaintiff in reference to a loan of 10,0001. After some negotiaticn the plaintiff consented to advance that amount on behalf of some of his clients, and he received promissory notes of the company for the amount, scrip of the company being at the same time plated in his hands as collateral security. The interest that was to be paid was at the rata of eight per cent., and three per cent. was to be charged in addi tion as commission, and • sum of about 0001. was deducted from the amount of the loan for interest and commission at the time the transaction was completed ; but when the bills became due they were dishonoured. It was clearly established that the money bad been ad vanced by the plaintiff, but when the day of payment arrived, all the parties who were presumed to be liable exhibited the strongest indication of a desire to shirk their responsibility, and the plaintiff, as the result, was com pelled to bring this action to recover the amount of the bills that had been given by the company. There did not appear to be any defence to the action upon the merits, but an objection was taken upon the authority of the case of the Mid Wales Railway Company, that • ' company "of that description had no power to give a promissory note or bill of exchange. Sir G. Honyman, however, contended that the consti tution of this company was a a different character to that of the company cited, and that, consequently, the objection did not apply. The Chief Justice declined to act upon the objection, and, in the result, the jury returned a verdict for the full amount claimed, with interest. APRIL 3. The business of this circuit was brought to a conclusion yesterday afternoon, the whole of the 121 causes that were on the list for trial in the county of Surrey having been disposed of in eight days. So large an entry of civil causes was never known at Kingston ; but out of the large quan tity of eases that were put down for trial, not more than one-third were actually tried, the whole of the remainder having been either withdrawn or turning out to be in point of fact undefended causes. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr. Payne.) Raoul Riclrtts. 27, described as a needle-woman, was indicted for stealing a pair of boots, value 2!., the pro perty of Dr. Paul, of 2ti, Burton-crescent, divisional sur geon of the E division of police. Dr. Paul said—On the 19th of March the prisoner came to him and said she wasted him to attend her in her con finement. This he consented to do, and the prisoner left. after giving her address as " Mrs. Cooper, 13, Thanet street. After she was gone he missed a pair of boots from his consulting-room, value 2/., which were safe when the prisoner came. There were six pairs of boots in the room, but they were not all good ones. (Laughter.) He went to 13, Thsnet-street and asked for Mrs. Cooper, and a person who answered to that name came to the door, and whilst he was speaking to her he saw the priso ner peeping behind a door, and immediately identified her and gave her in charge. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. Payne sentenced her to six months' imprisonment. Francis, 21, and Geur's' Moir., 29, were charged with attempting to pick the pockets of several ladies in the Strand ; to which they pleaded not guilty. Ackrell, a sergeant of the F division, was on duty on the 13th of March in the Strand, near Somenet-house, when he saw the prisoners go up to two Lsdies, who were standing outside Tweedie's, the booksellers, and put their hands into their pockets. It was about midday, and there were a great many people passing at the time. The prisoners concealed their operations by a piece of cloth which they had across their arms. They tried to steal a lady's gold chain and a gentleman's watch. The Assistant Judge—You say this was in the broad daylight in the Strand, one of the most crowded thorough fares in the metropolis? Aokrell—Yes, my lord. Mr. Harrison, an engineer, who also observed the pri. goners' movements, corrobo rated Ackrell, and upon his application assisted to take the prisoners into custody. They were very clever in their movements. The jury found them Guilts. Herbert Reeves and Joseph Smith, House of Correction warders ' proved several convictions ag a i ns t F ranc i s . The Assistant Judge, after commenting upon the audacity of the prisoners, sentenced Francis to two years' and Mean to eighteen months' imprisonment, with hard labour.
