Twelve stakes were originally appointed for decision, but the programme was shorn of its fair proportions by five of the engagements being compressed. The first race, there fore, did not take place until half-past 1, and the morning was devoted to the settlement of the eventing day's ac counts. The "squaring" proceeded most setisfactorily, and the backers of Old Calabar did not " part " without much grumbling. It is stated that the boree's leg pre way in his last race is the Osman meeting. If this be the fact, how ever, the following question suggests iWlf, "Why was the horse not struck out earlier '." The weather was cool ; but just prior to the last race, the dark clouds which had gathered broke, and sent many per sons home in baste. Only a slight shower, however, fell. The attendance of general company was very scanty, but after the crowd and excitement of Tuesday, the quietness of ,tbe proceedings was thoroughly enjoyed. The ground was very hard.

In this sue, it may be remembered that an injunction had been applied for to restrain the defendant, Murdo Young. from interfering in the conduct of the Sun newspaper, and the Lord Chancellor made an interim order, appointing the plaintiff, Mr. Chaplin, the representative of mortgagees of the property. receiver, manager, and editor until after the hearing and decirion of the cause. Mr. G. Lake Russell this morning moved, on the part of the plaintiff, that the defendant Young be ordered to quit and deliver up all property connected with the Sun news paper, sod such part of the dwelling-home which he occupied, and which was part, of the premises on which the newspaper was carried on, or in default that he should be i committed. The learned counsel stated that the premises in question ootakted of two leasehold homes, one of which fronted the Strand end the other the Savoy, but which had been joined together for the purposes of the newspaper, and pert of which was occupied by 'Young as a dwelling-boom 13y the order appointing the plaintiff receiver and manger Young was not entitled to continue in the occu pation of the premises. The question was what was the .property" of which the plaintiff had been appointed receiver, and be should contend that the second portion of the order in cluded the premises, the printing machinery, furniture, arid effects thereon. The Lord Chancellor—Have you allaeoesrq &ems to those parts of the premises which you require far carrying on the newspaper, and if so do you desire to turn Mr. Young and his family out of the dwelling-house ? Mr. Russell said that the most convenient staircase by which to get to the sub-editor's and compositors' rooms and the editor's room, which was much required, wee in that ' which was called the dwelling-house ; and in the state of feeling between the parties concerned there was a difficulty , in obtaining the wawa accommodation. The Lord Chancellor, without hearing the concluding part of the learned counsel's argument, said that mutual accom modation ought to be afforded by the respective parties. He should certainly not turn Mr. Young and his family out of their dwelling-house ; but as regarded that part of the bonze which was appropriated to the purposes of the newspaper, the receiver must have free and convenient access to it. The word "property" in the order referred to the effects and chattels immediately coenected with the carrying on of the newspaper. He would not do anything to encourage a disposition to come to the court with vexations motions, the object of which was to turn Mr. Young out of doors, and it was well known that he had said on former occasions that he would do no such thing. At the same time he would not th allow M ors of the. Young needlessly to obstruct the carryingof e Waim newspaper, end he must give every facility for that pur pose, and afford such accommodation as Mr. Young himself would have required if he had remained the editor and pub lisher of the newspaper. With this intimation of his opinion he would direct the motion to stand over, in order that it might he seen whether the defendant would afford all reasonable accommodation to the plaintiff.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—MAY 7. tins in Bisco.—(Betore Lord Chief Justice Erie and Jostioes Bytes, satd Heating.) BZHPI2IB V. ALLI3f.—LIBIII. This was an action spinet the Manchester Guardian to recover damages for an alleged libel published in t hat paper, consisting of an article in reference to the proceedings in the bankruptcy of Messrs. Dalian and Heap, and in which corn- Vtlentli were made in reference to purchases by the plaintiff of the bankrupts. It was mid among other things that these purchases were at a lower price than that at which the bankrupts had bought the goods, and that the things bought were grey cloths, an article which the plaintiff, as a calico printer, was not a dealer in. The defendant pleaded that the libel was true in 'lnhofe/me and in fact ; and upon an order being made that he should deliver particulars of what he in tended to prove under his plea he delivered particulars such sa this. On the 13th Maroh the bankrupts purchased 750 pieces of grey cloth from James Agnew, at 9a. 6d., and on the 15th they sold the same goods at Ba. 11d. to the plaintiff. There were also three other tapas:Atom de scribed is similar terms, and in all there were 19 deliveries of goods described with more or less particularity. The questions now raised for their lordship were whether the defendant was entitled to plead in the general terms in which be had framed his plea, or whether he was bound to set out his justification in detail ; and further whether the particulars delivered under the judge's order were sufficient Mr. Edward James appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Bovill for the defeedant. The Lord Chief Justice . said he was of opinion that tits defendant bad a right to Ms plea in the terms in wbiali he had put it. He also thought that the particulars delivered were sufficient to enable the plaintiff to know the nature of the proof which it was intended by the de fendant to bring forward. But as an order had been made by Mr. Justice Williams for further particulars, which order had not been obeyed, the court would out of respect to that order direct that there should be no costs, but if the parties agreed they might have the costs made casts is the isaearewitah Mr. Tea Brosek's Evenitand, by Mildew, Sit 21b Yordhara) w.o.

The bankrupt was a wholesale jeweller, of North-build ings, Finsbury. Debts, 1,7001. ; assets dependent on the realisation of consignmerata. Mr. S. Solomon, for the majors" asked for an adjourn ment, in order that the accounts might be thoroughly in vestigated by an accountant, and that the result of the con 'lemmata might be ascertained. Mr. Sidney appeared for creditors ; and Mr. C. E. Lewis for the bankrupt. Adjourned till the 25th of June. (Before Mr. Roche, Registrar.) Ile RE JOHN MHICLAII.—" HEIKLAIeB BONDS." The bankrupt was described as of Bryanstonaquare, and of Walton Villas, Brompton, and late a prisoner for debt. He came to the court on his own petition, and filed a state ment of account showing debts of upearda of 19,0001. These were due chiefly on bills of 2001. or 3001. and upwards, and in some cases on bonds. lire bankrupt, it appears, ban large expectations under the will of his father, who has bequeathed him property in Scotland worth 30,0001. a year ; but he cannot come into possession until he is 30 years of age. Meantime the annual receipts are accumulating in the hands of tiustees, and the bankrupt has resorted to the practios of issuing bills, or bonds, known as " Meiklam's bonds," which have circulated amongst those who knew his position, but in some cum at an alarming discount, one creditor having bought up those documents to the extent of 5,0001. for about 2001. At the foot of the list of his creditors of debts, the bankrupt made the following statement :—" I may be liable on other bonds and bills, which should have been returned to me by Mr. 11/111411013, of Ampthillequare, the particulars of which I am unable to obtain from him." A gentleman now asked that the petition should be dis missed, on the ground that the statement of account was not " full and accurate," as required by the act. The bankrupt was examined. He stated that he hail given bills for 5,0001. to Mr. Isaacson, in return for bills and hoods for 25,0001., and 99/. in money. He bad done this at the time when he was in the Bench, and had acted under the advice of Mr. Chidley. Mr. Chielley—And very sound advice too. You thereby reduced your liabilities from 25,000 f. to 5,0001. The Registrar (after consulting Mr. Commissioner Hol royd) said that as the bankrupt appeared to have used his best endeavours to trace the bills that were out against him, and to give a statement of account as accurate as he could, it was not a cue in which the petition would be dimissW on that ground. Several proofs were admitted, end Mr. A. G. Pooley, merchant, of Ricbes-oourt, Lime-street, was chosen trade Mears. Chidley are the solicitors under the pro- INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT.-MAY 7.

THE POLICE COURT& MANSION-HOUSE. A young man, about 20 years of age, dressed in the height of fashion, nam edi Charles Pinkstone, was brought before the Lord Mayor yesterday on kwarreat, in custody of de tective offioar Packman, c harged with forging and uttering, on the 7th April last , • cheque fur 10 01 ., and with forging and uttering, on the 9th April last, a cheque for 2001., both purporting to be signed by Messrs. Loughborough madßerfield, solicitors, of Awitinfriare, with intent to defraud Messrs. Martin and Co.. bankers, of Lombard street. Mr. Columbineappeared to watch the case on behalf of the prisoner. The prisoner was apprehended at Exeter by Robert Packmao, one of the detective force, where it appeared he was under remand, having been charged with riotous conduct before the magistrate at Exeter. The prisoner went to an hotel in Exeter, and the landlord seeing that he had plenty of money, was stylishly dressed, sod wore a valuable gold watch and chain, thought he was a highly respectable young man. He slept at the house, and in the middle of the night the housemaid wits startled by the pri soner, who was on the landing in his nightshirt flourishing • pistol about, and in a state of great excitement. The landlord thought be bad been partaking too freely of wine, and got him to bed again, but could not lock the door on the outside as the key could not be found. Shortly after the household had once more retired to rest the landlady was awoke by a noise at her bedroom door, and on her husband being called the prisoner was found on the staircase outside the door flourishing the pistol about, which was capped and loaded; he made a great disturbance, and could not beinduced to go to bed again, and as he bec ame very violent a police officer was sent for, whom be assaulted in a very violent manner, for which he was taken before the magistrate. Packman stated that he proceeded to Exeter, where be saw the prisoner. He showed him the warrant, od asked him if his name was Charles Pinkstone. The prisoner said it was ; and be told him that be was charged with forging and uttering, on the 7th April, • cheque for 1001., drawn on Messrs. Martin, bankers, of Lombard-etreet, and purport ing to be signed by his late employers, Means. Lough borough and Barfield, of Austinfriars ; and also on the 9th of April with forging and uttering a cheque for 2001. at the same place, and upon the same pretence. He showed the prisoner the cheques. The prisoner was delivered up to him by the authorities, and he received from the supertntem dent of police at Exeter 1731. in gold, and Se., in sil ver and copper, a gold watch and chain, and a portmanteau, containing apparel, which were in the possession of the psi. goner. On the road to London the prisoner told him be was quite willing to tell him all about the matter. He warned him that anything he said would be used as evidence London, him ; and be said he intended to plead guilty to the He told the prisoner he had received 3001 . in and asked him how he accounted for the deficiency. He replied that be had not a farthiog except what was taken from him by the police at Exeter. He paid about 451. for his watch, chain, and append/wee ; 1/. for • pistol, which he bought three days before he was locked up ; 11. for a portmanteme ; sad that he got five 51. notes for 251. in gold at Plymouth, and lost them ; and that he had also lost 101. in Loalor. The rest be bad spent upon himself. Mr. Leman, a cashier at Messrs. Martin and Co.'s, said Mears. Loughborough and Barfield kept an account at their bank. The cheque produced by the officer for 1001. was pm tented to him over the counter on the 7th of April. It to be signed by' Messrs. Loughborough and Bar raxiftle te paid 't in one of England note of 501., four of 101. each, mid ' IW. in gold; bat he could not say who presented it. Mr. Kelly, a cashier in the same bank, stated that thel cheque for 2001., also purporting to be signed by Masers. 1 , Loughborough and Barfield, was pragmatic' to hint on the 9th April, and be paid it with one mote of 2001. ; bat he could not swear that it was the prisoner who presented it. Mr. Barfield, of the firm of Loughborough sod Barfield, stated that the prisoner bad been in his service es clerk for seven weeks up to the 9th of April, when he ablooaded without giving any notice. The filling up in the cheque* produced was in the handwriting of the prisoner, and the signature which purported to be his (Mr. Barfield's) was not written by him nor by his authority. The c ue-book, with others bad been taken from his cheque-took, tibia was usually kept by the cashier. Mr. Columbine put some questions to this witness, bat elicited nothing in favour of the prisoner. The prisoner, who had nothing to say in answer to the charge, was then committed for trlaL OONCENTRATION OP THE COURTS OP LAW: Yesterday, a deputation from the Law Amend ment Society waited upon the Cfitancellor of the Exchequer, at his official residence, Downing-street, to suggest to him • means whereby the public puns might be protected from any additional burden in the event of the new law courts, es proposed to be erected on the site between Bell-yard, Ourey-street, and the Strand, coeting more than the esti mated sum. The deputation consisted of Mr. Field, Mr. Hastings, Mr. Edgar. kc. The eIi4NCIILLOR of the ExcHeQUER, in reply, stated that he had never contemplated altogether exempting the public purse from a portion of the cost of the proposed ooncentration of the courts, but he thought it better still to keep that an open question. With regard to the concen tration scheme item( it was a question on which he was in competent to offer an opinion, 'adapter u he could do so he gave it no reluctant, but on the contrary, a cheerful concurrence. Still, were he to propose it to the House of Commons his advocacy of it would do it more harm than good, for the house would very naturally ask why he, whose business it was to scrape up money, should interfere in • matter so foreign to his department. It should pro perly proceed from the legal organs of the government, and then in the event of the financial objection referred to being again urged against it, be might, if furnished with the data on which the society had made its calculation, reply to it. He supposed that the proposal to confine the tax to suitors in the common law courts proceeded on the ground that the Court of Chancery, through the Suitors Fee Fund, would contribute its share to the cost of the undertaking. (Mr. Hastings assented). He thought the proposed tax a very small one, and did not doubt that the suitor would save it in cab hire. The House of Commons had said by its react vote that it would not 'auction • scheme which entailed heavy expenses on the public. As far as he was concerned he should not take soy nigg a rdly view of the case on public grounds. A long conversation took place, but nothing definite was settled with regard to the object the deputation had in view, and when it terminated the gentlemen composing the depu tation thanked the right honourable gentleman for the patience with which he had listened to the explanation oi their views. THE MURDER IN TIPPERARY. --• The corre spondent of the Freeman's Journal, writing from Carrick on-Suir on Tuesday, says :—" Again has Tipperary been stained with blood! and spit, I am sorry to say, land is the undeniable cause. This time, however, it Is not the landlord who has been amassinated. To-d ay I record the cowardly and bloody murder of • respectable tenant-farmer named Maguire. The alleged and believed cause of the foul outrage was that he recently became the tenant of • farm from which the previous tenants were evicted. To-day, about 12 o'clock, while passing along the road near Glen boVer he was barbarously murdered. The police at oace received the intelligence, and immediately made arrange ments for a vigorous, and, it is hoped, • succes-iul search. The inquest will be held to-morrow by Mr. Shoe the same gentlernao who has only just concluded the inves tigation at Rockwell on the body of Mr. Thiebault. The murdered man's name is Michael Maguire. He was murdered on the high road at about 1 o'clock, at the foot of Slieve-na -Mon Mountains, near Glenboyer, where the police barrack was attacked in 1848. The farm he had taken possession of was about 30 acres in extent, and the tenant who was evicted was Michael Kennedy." SINGULAR DEATH.—Yesterday inquiry was held by the Middlesex coroner, at the Grasshopper Tavern, Charles - street , Whitechapel, touching the death of Michael Lsnghan, aged 99, a coalheaver, who died on Monday last, from an injury of • singular character. Mr. Lichin, • lodging-house keeper, said that • short time since de ceased, who was a lodger of his, was standing in the par lour, when • deaf and dumb man, under the influence of liquor, came in and pushed rudely against him. A quarrel I ensued, and the deceased dealt the intruder • heavy blow l in the mouth, and thus laid his own knuckles open in a ' fearful manner, they having come fully in contact with his adversary's teeth. Deceased's hand shortly afterwards swelled to • large size, and he became seriously ill. He was therefore removed to the union infirmary. Mr. A. Coetea s mineys, divisional surgeon to the union, said that de was admitted suffering from wounds in the knuckles half an inch in length, which bad been poisoned by the teeth of the man whom he struck. The poison went over the whole body and limbs, and the legs mortified. The arm and the face were attacked with erysipelas. In answer to the coroner, witness stated that human teeth were undoubtedly poisonous. He understood that deceased had been in an underfed condition at the tame of the oc currence. The immediate cause of death was the legs be coming gangrened. The coroner having summed up, the jury returned a verdict of " Death by misadventure." SUEPECTED WIFE MURDER AT COVENTRY.—A middle-aged man, named Frederick King, • weaver, living in Much Park-street, is in the custody of the police on sus picion of having murdered his wife. It seems that the prisoner, a fellow of drunken habits, has for • long time past indulged in the practice of beating his wife. On Moo day morning, at an early hour, the prisoner called two neighbours into his house to look at his wife, who he said helloes taken ill. They found her in • state of stupor, in which she continued till • few minutes before nine o'clock, when she exred. There was so natural appear ance to account for death, and the woman was in a perfectly healthy state on the previous day, when she went to the police to complain of her husband's ill-treatmeet. The countenance of deceased was discoloured la several pieces, ea if from the infliction of blows, and there was • math is the nean, as if strangulation had taken place. A sespicioe of poison has been raised on m% account de. packet of nux comic* being given by the WOOS n the day previously to the police , with the statement that her us hband had given it to her on Good Friday, re at the same time that "he should like to see her with it." The medical gentleman who examnied the after death is understood to confirm these suspicions'_ in fact, he pre the information to the police which hoe NI to the priemer's apprehension on the charge above mentioned, The Coroner (Mr. Carter) opened the inquest on the body CPO Monday, but no evidence was taken.

It is evident that the leather trade is 'offering, in common with others, from the diminution of business ' and ceasumptica which the prolongation of the war in America occasions, but we hope the fine season will in some degree aid the general demand and suffice to keep the mar. ket steady. Eaw goods have not varied materially. The imports, which are to an average amount, include the trot hides of the mace from Haste ina...
