Several Waterloo Cup_ReniinatiOne were basked in Qs mares of tbe morning, lir. Inglebfe, Mr. Brooklekank`s, Kr. Bina- Ors, and Lord Lurgan'e being must in request. For the Lincolnshire Handicap, King Charming and Purveyor were main in extraordinary demand, the bulk of the bet ting being confined to this pair. Cauthleen bad a slightly improved appearance, as she would have been backed ea anything over 20 to 1. Snowdrop, elm stable companion of Purveyor, was supported for s little at 33 to 1, but these odds were o ff ered to the close. Easby retired to 50 to 1 offered without • response. For the Liverpool Omnd National, Tennyson, The Lamb. end Daisy were each bucked at 100 to 6 very freely. Chim ney Sweep made a great stride, V) to 1 being accepted to • good deal of money, and asked for in vain at the fi nish. Pearl Diver was also in request, all the 20's to 1 being absorbed, and • point or two less subsequently finding takers. Huntsman's Daughter was introduced into the quotations at 100 to 3, sad Sea King was backed by his owner at 2000 to 30, with offers to accept 1000 to 15 five times more. Sea King and Moose were also backed coupled at 20 tel. The Chester Cup betting was confined to a few small commissions. No change took place on either the Two Thousand or the Derby ; Rosicrucian did not appear to be in good odour for either race, as frequent otters were made without a response.

These stipulations will, it is thought, be • barrier to the proposed race, as the peculiarity of the English rivers renders the service' of • coxswain indispensable ; while for the Oxonians to carry eight stone more than their opponents would be seeking inevitable defeat. lf, therefore, the match comes off, we understand it will be on terms already suggested by Mr. ' Willan, the president of the Oxford University Boa. Club, via., on the same conditions as the annual inter university boat race, the question of place and distance to be mutually agreed upon. The committee of the Oxford University Boat Club have, we learn, just apprised their transatlantic brethren of their decision on the subject, and on their answer tho race will depend. A few days since two young greyhounds, while chasing a hare at Kimiueridge, in the Isle of Purbeck, fell over • cliff several hundred feet in height and were killed. $ kale if ntentiture.

It wee an action for personal injuries. The niketited the negligence, and the case resolved ileeli We 4110, far the assemment of daniages. Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., Mr. Garth, Q.C., and Mr. Cramp ton, were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. Mellish, Q.C., and Mr. Kempley appeared for the defendants. The plaintiff is no eminent medical man, residing sad i practising at Sunderland, and he is also surgeon to the , ophthalmic and other charitable institutions in that town. On the Bth August, 1866, plaintiff end his wife were passengers by the defendants' line from Sunder- land to Brighton by the express train, and on its entering the central station at Newcastle it tame . into violent collision. The plaintiff and his wife were riding in the 'tempo, and the shock was so violent that the plaintiff was thrown forward, his head going through the thick plate glass ; he tenon Lis knees, and then satinet the back of the carrisge. His bead and face were eat in several places, and bled profusely ; his eyes fl ashed fire ; be was cut un deri the chin, and very much shaken, and he was unconscious for some time. Ho was removed from the station and seen by Sir John Fife and Mr. Hain, two medical gentlemen, and since then he had been examined by several eminent medical men, both in London and the provinces. The sight of his left eye had been seriously Injured, and it was getting worse, and he was now unable to perform such delicate operations as previous to the accident. HL practice had since decreased between 3001. and 4001. per annum. Plaintiff's opinion was that the I optic nerve in its track from the retina to the brain had been injured. He was 58 years of age, and he had no hope of his eye getting better. It was shown that pre vious to the accident plaintiff was a moat efficient operator, and had one of the best practices in the town of Sunder land. Three witnesses having been examined this morning on behalf of the plaintiff, Mr. Coleridge said ho bad to announce that terms had been offered, but a difficulty arose as to whether the damages should be 2,2501. or 2,0001., and they had agreed to leave it to his lordship to say which should be the amount. Mr. Justice Lush said he did not think 2,2501. too much. A verdict was then entered for the plaintiff for that amount, on the understanding that the action brought by the plaintiff's wife should be abandoned on the payment of costs. flabit anti ifitittarg.

STRIKE AGAINST FOILLION OPZILATTVES.—During the last few days a large proportion of the workmen en. gaged at the extensive spolter works of Messrs. Vivian, Swansea, have struck, owing to various alleged grievances that the native workmen complain of in several respects. It appears that Mr. Datum, a German gentleman, is at the heed of one department, and owing to certain reasons of his own, he has recently engaged some twenty or thirty of his countrymen, who have been introduced to the works. This gave great umbrage to the English. Webb, and Irish operatives, who aver that the foreigners, although paid a higher rate of wages than the natives, are inferior to them in physical and other capacitiee. The discontent that smouldered for some week or two at length burst forth into active resistance of the employment of hedge " labour" at advanced wages, as compered vial notivee. Upwards of fifty men left the se of the firm an Saturday last, and coneiderahle exemeM acid discontent was the result.

The House of Loan ,at for but a few minutes yesterday, and no buainess of importance was brought before it. HOUSE OF COMMONS.. —Fiume, FED. 14. Is the Hones of 00hreows the CHANCELLOR of the E.WHEQCER stated, in reply to Mr. SANDFORD, that government have no intention to bring for ward guy measure to revive the system of com pounding for rates. On the order of the day for going into committee of supply, Mr. W. E. Fousrett inquired whether the govesn inent intend to bring forward during this session any measure on tho subject of elementary educa tion in England and Wales. Ho remarked that there was a strong feeling that there was injustice in the mode in which the present grant was distri buted, and it was time that the system should be changed. There were many reasons why the sub ject should be undertaken by the present govern ment. There was • growing conviction that we could no longer afford to leave it to the parent to determine whether his child should be educated or not. Ho believed that among the working classes there was a willingness to make sacrifices for the purpose of promoting education, and there was a general opinion that England could not afford to remain any longer a half educated country. The CHANCLLLOR of the ExcuequElt, while ad mitting the fairness of the question and the im portance of the subject, declined to enter on a dis cussion upon it when brought on in so desultory a manner. The subject had occupied the attention of the government, and it was their intention to introduce a measure upon it in the present session. Mr. WALPOLE moved the second reading of the Public Schools Bill. The bill, ho stated, was sub stantially the same as that which the House of Lords sent down to this house last sesaion. The bill was founded ou the report of the royal com missioners. There were nine public schools, but the bill dealt with only seven, it having been consi dered that two of them, the 'Menthant Taylors School and the School of St. Paul's were rather of a private than of a public character. The schools to which the bill related were Winchester, Eton , Shrewsbury, Westminster, Rugby, Harrow, and ('harterhouse. The bill provided fur the self-reform of these schools, and gave power to the governing bodies in the first instance to make statutes and regulations. The statutes would be of a more per manent character than the regulations, and would have relation to the foundation, to the exhibitions and scholarships, and also to the property belong ing to the schools. Tho regulations would have relation to the branches of study, and the manage ment of the schooL These would be subject to the revision of a commission. Mr. Averox denied that they ought to pay great deference to the opinion of the founders of these schools. These institutions should be dealt with by parliament as it saw best. He contended that there was no adequate mem for withdrawing either St. Paul's or the Merchant Taylors' School from the supervision of parliament. The former had a very large endowment, and the receipts of the school were distributed by the patrons among themselves. There was not so much objection to the management of the latter, but if the funds of all the public schools in London were properly applied, the advantages of the schools might be ex tended to a great many more children than now enjoyed them. Ho had given notice of a motion for a select committee on the subject of the en dowed schools of London, but he should not move it. Mr. GLAD TONE said his views with regard to the deference to be paid to the wishes of the founders of those schools were much in concurrence with those) of Mr. Ayrton. The bill that was in troduced into the House of Lords by Lord Clarendon was so introduced with the sanction of the late cabinet. After the investigations of the last three years it would be a mistake to refer the matter of tho London schools to a select com mittee, and he recommended Mr. Ayrton to bring forward his views with regard to those schools when the bill was in committee. Seeing that par liament had been called upon to legislate with regard to the Charterhouse ' he did not think it could be regarded ass local school. Mr. NEATE objected to the bill, and remarked that a portion of the funds of public schools ought to be devoted to the education of the children of farmers and tradesmen, instead of being exclusively devoted to thu education of the sons of the rich. Tho discussion was continued by Mr. 13entinek, Lord Enfield, Mr. Griffith, and Sir Stafford North cote after which the bill was read a second time. The Earl of MAYO moved for leave to bring in a bill to renew for a limited period the Habeas Corpus Suspension (Ireland) Act. He said the act expired on the Ist of March, and nobody who had watched the events of the last twelve months could bo surprised at the government asking for a renewal of the powers which had been confided to them for the last three years. It was because they considered this was absolutely necessary in order to the preservation of the peace and to en deavour to destroy the Fenian conspiracy, that they felt it absolutely necessary to ask the house to continue to entrust them with these 9 to 100 to 100 to 100 to ma 14 to 100 to lye to powers. The leaders of the Fenian conspiracy had transferred the scene of their exertions to this aide of the Atlantic, and this country had been asto nished to find that there had existed for a con siderable time a conspiracy, with the avowed pur pose of creating a rebellion in Ireland, and to sever that country from connection with this, and make it no longer subject to the British crown. That conspiracy had been marked by crimes which he believed were unparalleled in history. The government were in possession of information that on the continent and in America considerable ac tivity prevailed among those who were engaged in this conspiracy. The number of persons now in custody under the Lord-Lienteaant's warrant was 06, and the number arrested during the whole of last year was 265, out of whom only 11 were occupiers of land, and 95 were persons who had spent the greater part of their time in America. The government had been able to stop the designs of these men, and since the sth of March there had been no armed movement. It was proposed that the act should continue in force for a year, and in case parliament were not then sitting for three weeks after the reassembling of parliament. The great object of the government was prevention. Though the act was in force, there was freedom of discussion and of writing, and in fact the people were free to do anything except rebel. Mr. 13sowem. was not surprised that the govern ment had brought in the bill, but he was surprised that it should have been brought in without the announcement of any measure of amelioration. It was the old story, coercion, coercion." The bill had been carried out moat mildly, and the con duct of the police and the magistr ates bad been admirable. Leave was then given to bring in the bill, and the house adjourned at twenty minutes to 10 o'clock. I 100 to 100 to THE POLICE COURT& I[ANSION•HOUSL John Pennieuid, 68, and /Oh; Tow, 61, wise charged before the Lord Mayor with conspiring together to defraud the India Rubber, Gana Perch', and Telegraph Works Company, of 110, Cannon-street, of • large quantity of goods. Mr. George Lewis, jun.. solicitor, appeared for the prow cation ; the prisoners were undefended. In July list the prisoners, with a man named 'Fennell, hired some rooms in a large house, No. 21, Hyde-irk place, and immediately began to i ssue orders tat various firms for goods, describing themselves as " Jaz; Fennell and Co., builders and contractors ." Among re they ordered of the India Rubber and Telegraph W Com pany, in November last, 251. worth of indis rubber tubing, giving as • reference the name of Mr. Webb, a builder, in Pembridge-place. The company wrote to Mr. Webb, who answered their inquiries by stating that he had known Mr. Fennell for some time as a highly respectable person. Immediately after writing that letter, " his. Webb ," as he was called, absconded, and has never since been seen. The goods were sup plied, and soon after pawned by the prisoners for 71. A clerk of the company went to Hyde-park-pleas to seek Fennell, and was introduced to the prisoner Tow who, it would be proved, had written the orders. He asked that rieoner where the tubing was, and he said it had been laid down in various houses in Belgravia, where they were executing • large contract for painting and decorating. He added that it would not be convenient for them to pay the company then, but that they would send the money la a few days. Shortly afterwards the company supplied them with goods to the value of 601., whioh, from informs tioa they bad received, they bad discovered had been palmed is the City. A warrant was then issued, and the prieeneee were apprehended by Edward Fennel l, a City detective sergeant. The rent of the rooms in Hyde-park plaoe, amounting to 801., it is hardly necessary to state had pot been paid. Mr. Lewis, in his opening statement, said the charges ware innumerable which he should have to bring against the prisoners and Fennell. The case was remanded. GREENWICH. Mary Thomas, aged 11, of 4, Russell-road, Peckham, and Elizabeth Dunn aged 10, of 4, Bayard-road , Rye-lane, Peckham, respectab ly-droned children, were charged with obtaining contributions from the public under false pre tences. Police-sergeant Fox, P division, said the prisoners came and knocked at the door of the Sydenham Polioe-station on the previous day, and Dunn produced a book, saying she had been sent by her mother, who was collecting subscrip tions on behalf of a poor woman residing at 4, Brick field-road, Sydenham. Witness looked at the book, and seeing several entries of subscriptions, said be would give her twopence himself, and did so, upon which Thomas also produced a book, and asked him to subscribe, saying she was collecting for another poor woman. Wituese told her he could not give her any thing, and both prisoners went away. He afterwards met the prisoners coming from • draper's shop in 8 den ham, where • scarf or necktie had been purchased, and seeing them siso in possession of some oranges and pastry, he concluded all was not right, and questioned them closely. He afterwards proceeded to the house of the pri soner Dunn's parents, and ascertaiocd that the mother had sent her out as stated but unknown to her husband, who holds • very good position as clerk in the government service. The parents of Thomas ware in en equally good position, but they denied all knowledge of their child being engaged in collecting money for any person whatever. The mother of Dunn, a stylishly-dressed parson, was here called forward, and admitted that the appeal at the heading of the book was in her handwriting, sad that she had given it to her daughter to collect money with. The amount collected was 95., of which she said she had given 2s only to the woman for whom it was intended ; she did not, however, know where to find the woman, who wandered about, and she had put the address stated, at which she lived, in the book, because she thought it same wary some address should be given. Her landlady she expected to be present to speak to her respectability. The mother of the prisoner Thorns; said she was sur prised when the polloe-sergeant called upon her and explained what bad taken place ; and Thomas, in answer to the magistrate, said she met Donn, who told hershewas collecting money for her mother, and asked her why she did not do the same, upon which she obtained • book, and • man at • grocer's shop wrote in the book for what the collection was being made. The money she obtained she admitted was spent by herself and fellow-prisoner, and not taken home. Mrs. Sarah Taylor, the landlady of the house in whisk the parents of Dunn reside, here entered the emu* sad said she was not aware until the previous eveniwg that any collection such as that deposed to was being aria by Mrs. Dunn, although living near her. Some time ego a young woman was in the habit of sleeping in • stable owl her premises, and being unable to keep her away, and fearing she might perish, she communicated with the pollee, and the young woman, who was evidently not right in her mind, was taken to the workhouse, but in consequence of the medical man being unable to certify as to her being insane, she had been dis charged, and was now sleeping at night time about brick fields. This was the pens meant by Mrs. Dunn, whose daughter, now in custody, had often come to her home, but never showed her the book with which she wan eolLot money. . Mends said ft was the most extreordiaery ease of obtaining money from the charitable public that had ever come under his notice, and in order that the strictest in quiz y might be made by the police, he should adjourn the cans Tor • few days, the prisoners being given up to their parents.

Mr. LAYMIN seconded the motion, and remarked that if they published the evidence taken in the Ltankruptcy Court it would amount to contempt of court, and be highly detrimental to the character of the board. Mr. Cossnesog said that the public would think the board was doing an injustice if they did not allow their minutes to be published in the usual way. He moved as an amendment that the minutes of the last meeting be sent as usual to the vestries and district boards. Dir. "[owes seceaded the amendment, remarking that Le did so because ho believed the character of the board was at stake. Mr. SHARD said that, so far as he could see, there was nothing private or confidential in the evioe.mo which had been brought before the board. lir. Cool( pointed cut that in the evidence the affairs of persons who had nothing to do with the transaction had been introduced, and it would be unfair to publish them. Mr. BIDOOOD said that he was not aware that the board had obtained any evidence upon the understand ing that it was not to bc published. They were not under a 1 .-lgo of secrecy to anybody, and he could see no harm in ending the whole of the evidence to the vestries and district boards. Mr. SAUNDERS said that if the report were entered upon the minutes every ratepayer could, under the act of parliament, go to the offices of the board and read it. He could not see anything libellous in the report of the committee. He believed it to have been a mistake to have taken the evidence at all, and having decided to take it, they had made • greater mistake in taking it in. private. Mr. COLLTSSON said that be found that it was unlaces limy to pass • special resolution in order that the minutes might be sent to the vestriea and district boards, and he therefore withdrew his amendment. Mr. FREEMAN pointed out that the board represented the public as well as the vestries, and if they withheld from the public the evidence which they had taken, their character would be injured. The discussion he looked upon as much ado about nothing, as there really was no reason why the evidence should not be made public. Mr. RICHARDSON said that it was a duty the board owed to the public to publish the evidence. Mr. L. TAILOR said that to the credit of both the hon. members whose names had been brought forward in the matter, they were elision, that the whole of the evidence should be published. Mr. ELKINS argued that the evidence was obtained by the solicitor from the Bankruptcy Court upon the under standing that it was for the private use of the board, and not to be made public. If they published that portion of the evidence, therefore, it would clearly bo a breach of confidence. Colonel Hoc° said that Mr. Furness had stated in a letter that if the evidence were published he should look upon it as a breach of faith. The motion was then put, and last by 30 to 9. The evidence will therefore be printed, and circulated amongst the vestries and district boards. ERR PROPOS= WIDENING OF LUDOATZ-HILL. A report from the works committee recommending that the board do contribute one-half of the *oat of an improve ment proposed at the western end of Ludgato.bill, mach contribution not to exceed 11,7551, the improvement, cost. in _23,5121., was brought up by Mr. FREEMAN. Mr. NEWTON opposed the recommendation. The motion was eventually carried. Some other businesa having been disposed of, the board adjourned. ROYAL MICROSCOPICAL SOCIrrY. —The annual meeting was held at King's College on Wednesday, the 12th inst., Mr. James Glaisher, F.R.S., president, in the chair.

DLANCHESTER AND MILFORD RAILWAY. —A cor respondent writes :—" This line, more than 50 miles in length, has been open for traffic between Aberyetwith and Carmarthen during the last six months, and no weekly return of gross receipts has appeared in any of the journals. This is the only railway company, it is said, which does not make such return. It is stated that the concern is practically in the hands of the preference share holders, and therefore that the ordinary shareholders are excluded from any control whatever. If this is the state of the case, surely it is time the ordinary shareholders should stir in the matter." THZ TRADES UNION CONFERENCE WITH MB.

Buyers how. ever, feel preatica ll y that the market is in their favour. sad they are not inclined to repeat their recent higheek offers. For shipping yarns, in eoosegaence of the heavy engagements of spinners to order, sellers are mostly veer firm in adhering to their quotations ; some "'Miners even ask rather higher rates than on Tuesday. There has not been much business offering, and sellers report a rath er ' quiet market. For home trade yarns the demand ha" also been checked to-day by the disposition manifested among spinners to abide by the enhanced rates whi c h up to Tue. day they were enabled to commend u the result of the cotton speculations. While the slight reaction which hie taken place in the raw material induces caution end • die. position to inactivity among buyers, spinners feel that with the contracts on band they cannot afford to stand aloof for a time, and consequently there has been • very limited business. In cloth, although manufacturers are compelled to pay full prices for yarn, there has been a more decided pause in business to-day than even in yarns, The demand for the present baa met with a decided check, and sellers have found that the higher rates of Tuesday and of last week cannot be obtained. Bat manufseturers, like spinners, make no change in their quotations, al. though they are unable to get business at them. The con. sequence is a very restricted business in all descriptions of fabrics suited to the Esatern market', to which our foregoing remarks chiefly apply. In heavy goods, and fabrics made from coarser cotton, which have never ad. vaned in the same proportion as India and China goods, there has been s moderate business, but still there is a sympathy in these branches with the more depressed, and buyers have been offering easier terms. Printing cloths of the better quality maintain their value, all the large canoe p r i n t ers being well engaged on spring tow.* and conga quently more or less in the market. CORN.—CHELMSFORD, FED. 14. —The weather during the week has been fine, and farmers are busy sowing beans and barley.

POISONED BY AN OVERDOSE OF MEDICINL.—Atan Inquest held on Thursday, before Mr. Mefferd, city coroner, Manchester, on the body of an old man, named L.,wrence O'Brien, it appeared that the deceased, Laving obtained a dispensary order for a mixture suitable for a brunchitio affection, found the medicine so agreeable in its effects —it was a nareotio—that during the night he swallowed the whole contents of the phial, the consequence being that he was found next morning dead in Led, with the empty bottle by his side under the bedclothes. It further appeared that the phial when bonded to Lim at the dis pensary bad no label on it, and that the instructions as to how he was to take the medicine were given to him onlz by word of mouth. Mr. Charles Ogden, surgeon, proved the cause of death to be bronchitis, but that death was ac. celerated by an overdose of laudanum and ipecacuanba. The jury accompanied their verdict with an opiniou that to serve out unlabelled phialsief i medicine win a highly censurable practice ; and the coroner added that he would see that a copy of the verdict wasforwarded to the com ' mittee of the dispensary. The deceased was a weaver, but had been for some time in reduced eircumstancsn, and up to his death was in receipt of parish relief.
