Mr. COLERIDGE, in moving the second reading of the Tests Abolition (Oxford) Bill, said the bill was word for word the same as he introduced last year. He should, therefore, content himself with stating the principal arguments for the bill that were urged in the debate of last year. First, the sup porters of this measure contended that the Univer sity of Oxford was a national institution, and that parliament ought to compel the university to receive all subjects of the crown who might resort thither, without any reference to the religious opinions they might hold. Next, they maintained that it was only, so to speak, by accident, and with different objects and views, that the disabilities were originally imposed. It was not till the time of Elizabeth that they were imposed, and the objects with which they were imposed had passed sway. The prin cipal objection to the measure war that by the admission of non-conformists to the university the religious teaching of the university would he impaired. The fact, however, was, that the prevailing temper of the governing body of the university was now, and hail been for more than a hundred years pa,t, steadily =I to anything like religious culture. Be if the presence of the nonconformists in the university was dangerous, the danger was incurred already, for they were now there, and they might be examiners and private tutors. The bill aimed at one single definite issue, and it was not intended by it to deal with any question that might rise collaterally with regard to fellowships. But though • short and simple hill, it established an important principle, the nationality of the university as against the exclusive claim of the church of England. 140.

FOREIGN OBLIGATIONS. Mt I Pd. 1 RAILWAY& I Closing pikes. 1 Saks. Sir W. HEATHCOTE said his hon. and learned friend had been rightly informed that it was not intended to op- pose the second reading of the bill. There were certain amendments which were to be proposed, but this was not the right time for going into them, and he merely rose to explain that he did not think that this was the right time, so fares he was concerned, for raising any opposition to the motion of bin hon. and learned friend. There were notices of amendments which, if carried, might alter the form of his bill altogether ; and, among other matters, they would have to consider its e ff ect as applied to both uni versities. The bill was then read a second time. RELIGIOL'S, Ice., BUILDING SITES BILL. Mr. HADFIELD moved the second reading of this bill. He did not apprehend that there would be any opposition to it, its object being simply to enable all managers of be nevolent institutions, whether they were connected with schools, religious objects, or objects of science or art, to acquire possession of land to the extent of two acres with out the inconvenience and expense attached to it by the rt operation of the Momain Act, the expense of wh ich often amounted to more than five per cent. of the purchase money. Mr. WALPOLE said that he would not offer any ob jection to the motion, and The bill was read a second time. SUPPLY. The report of supply was brought up and agreed to. The Duty on Dogs Bill as amended was considered. The Sugar Duties (Recommitted) Bill passed through committee.

The great "cross-country" contest, so eminently popular throughout the kingdom and among all classes of the C 011.14111• hit), has again been celebrated, and henceiorth the name of Gortoli in will be enrolled among those famed steeple chasers who have asserted their supremacy over the renowned Grand National course at Aintree. The race this year has been one of unparalleled interest, and although the betting in connexion with It was for some time " weary, flat, stale, and unprofitable," as the time approached for its deciakm, the enthusiasm of the public was thoroughly awakened. To fix itself indelibly in the recollection of those unfortunates who will rush on early favourites, the ()rand National of Ina was not de. 'obi of those obnoxious features without which no great handicap appears complete in its details. We refer obviously to those animals who are se expreedvely denominated "dead tans" —a phrase which is correct so far as their vitality in the money market is concerned. The names of Burney and Columbia figured prominently fora Wng time In the list of quotations, but • week ago unmistakable rigns of their ultimate withdrawal were observable, and, as was anticipated, both were struck out, ( on Monday afternoon, and Burney prior to the com mencement of the racing on Tuesday. Never was the ()rand National week inaugurated with more delightful weather than it was on the present anniversary, although the keen and bracing air rendered it seasonable. The morning was line, but, in consequence of the eclipse, was sbinewhat dull. By noon, however ' the sun shone out with great brilliancy, and the course assumed a stirring aspect by the time for the contest of the week. A great change took place, however, during the running for the Grand National, th e s k y b ecom i ng cloudy, and a slight rain falling A large number of people repaired to the course this morning to witness the gallops of the competitors, meet of whom were out doing a canter. On no previous occasion had so many persons walked round to inspect the course and the various fences and leaps. The impression created generally was that the "country" was anything but forinklable, being of a fair and moderate hunting character. The much talked of lecher's and Valentine's Brooks exist only In name, being now no more than ordinary ditches, such as one constantly meets when out with the hounds, and within the compass of any ordinary bunter to take. The obstacles are twelve in number, including the artificial water Jump opposite the stand, which was a model of Its character, being made with • due regard to the safety of the hones, fuel at the same time to test their abilities for taking" water. The " going" was very good, the greater proportion of the land being grass, and the tire pieces of plough were har rowed over in the track. The attendance was considerably In .aeon of any previous anniversary, and the great race caused as much Interest and excitement as ever. The particulars of this contest will be found fully recorded below. Suffice it to say that Gortolvin, who ran second for this event last year, won with comparative ease, and immense cheers arose on all sides when the hoisting of the winner's number proclaimed the fact that the popular young Duke of Hamilton had secured this rich and coveted prize. It may he mentioned that the chances of Astro late, Ball Court, Whlichall, and Little Enna were extinguished In an early part of the race by the falling of Havelock. The flat racing was somewhat tame, and calls for no further comment beyond the appended details: Till WELT'S CeP of 40 1045., added to a handicap sweep stakes of 5 sore. each ; penalties and allowances.

Tii GREAT BULLION ROBBERY. —The perpe trators of the great robbery of bullion belonging to Messrs. Rothschild, from the Waterloo steamer, in the Thames, have not been apprehended. Notices have been served by the officers having the case in band on the nume rous gold and silver refiners in London of the description of the stolen bullion, stating that a reward of 1001. has been offered by the General Steam Navigation Company to any one giving such information as may lead to the apprehen sion of the thieves, with an addition of 10 per cent. on the value of any portion of the bullion recovered. The quantity of silver stolen is represented at 10,080 on., valued at 2,520/. Each bar weighed nearly 841 b.. bore Karon Rothe c;iild's stamp, and was numbered. The lighter, which was stolen from alongside the Waterloo steamer on the night or morning of the robbery, and was, no doubt, used by the thieves to carry off the bullion, has since been found abandoned athwart the piles of the works of the new bridge building at Blackfriars. The oars belonging to it were gone, and part of the combing of the hatch of the cabin is newly broken off, evidently by something heavy falling on it, as would hare happened had one of the bul lion cases dropped on it. The cases were marked R 53 and It 62, and not as previously reported. RENARILABLE ACUIDINT.—A carpenter, named Greaves, was at work yesterday afternoon at the New Exchange-buildings, Liverpool, directing a piece of timber against a circular saw, when something fell upon him from the scaffolding above him, threw him on to the revolving instrument, and his head and face were instantly cut in two. He was killed on the spot. METROPOLITAN FEES HOaPITAL, DEVONSHIRE SQUARE.

HOME ClRClllT.—thim.msroßo, MARCH 6. (Before Baron Bramwell and a Common Jury.) 11. 6IILLIMIL This was an action to recover damages from the defen dant for his having broken bid promise to marry the Ph!intiff* t Parry and Mr. Coati were for the plaintiff ; and was for the defendant. B %7Philbrick The plaintiff, Eliza Freeman, who was stated to be about t 2 years old, brought this action against the defendant, who is employed as bailiff or broker to his uncle, a maltster and farmer, residing at Hat fi eld Broad Oak, in this county, for a breach of promise of marriage. It appeared that she was engaged as a domestic servant in the establishment of the uncle of the defen dant in the year 180, and an intimacy sprang up be tween the parties, which resulted in the defendant making her an offer of marriage. He, however, refused to carry out kis engagement, and the conse quence was that an action was brought against him by the plaintiff, which was to have been tried at the last summer assizes, but the parties came to an arrange ment without going into court, by which the defendant undertook to pay the costs and to give the plaintiff W. This arrangement, it appeared, however, was only carried out so far as related to the ants, and the 501. was paid. The plaintiff went to live in service in London, and according to the case that was sought to be established on her behalf, the defendant subsequently renewed his inti macy with the plaintiff and again made her an offer of marriage, and a second time refused to carry out his en gagement, and the present action was brought against him in consequence of that breach. Two of the sisters of the plaintiff were examined, who clearly proved that the de fendant had renewed his engagement, and that he had re peatedly expressed his intention to make the plaintiff his wife, and had called them " his sisters." No evidence was given as to the reasons that induced the defendant to refuse to carry out his promise. Mr. Philbrick addressed the jury principally in mitiga tion of damages ; and he also endeavoured to show that the plaintiff had released the defendant from hie first promise, and that he had not renewed the engagement. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, LSO!- (Before the Chief Justice.) Two special jury causes, which were cross actions for aaaault, were disposed of by arrangement between the par ties, and the others were of the most uninteresting de scription. The Chief Justice got through tht calendar early in the day, and he then proceeded to try some of the remaining common jury causes. NORFOLK CIRCUIT.— NORTHAMPTON, MARCH 6. NISI Piiu COURT.—(Before Mr. Barn Martin and a Special Jury.) POOLER r. THZ LONDON AND NORTH WIL,TERN RAILWAY COMPANY. Mr. O'Malley, Q.C., Mr. Bulwer, Q.e., and Mr. Mere wether ap d for the plaintiff ; Mr. Keane, 14. C., and Mr. Metcalfe for the defendants. This was an action to recover compensation for injuries sustained by the plaintiff in what is known as the Watford accident on the London and North Western Railway. The plaintiff, who is 40 years of age, stated that he managed the Northampton branch of the business of Messrs. Frisby, Dyke and Co., for which be received a salary of 2001. a year, which would he increased if he increased the business. Last Whit-Monday he started from Northampton in a fiat-class carriage of an excur sion train to London. He sat at the side of the car riage, beck to the engine, and there were three other persons in the carriage. When they got to llletchley they took up two other trains, and proceeded with two engines, about 40 carriages, and nearly 2,000 pieuiengera. When they got to King's Langley station the train by some man got off the line and came into collision with a bridge. The plaintiff was thrown forward, and his nose and forehead struck the cheek of the gentleman opposite, cutting it open. The plaintiff's nose and forehead were cut, and he was then thrown back, his shoulders coming into collision with the arm of the seat. After that he became insensible, and re membered nothing more till he found himself on the em bankment with some people attending to him. He was sent back to Nort' ampton the same evening, and suffered great palm in the head, back, and abdomen. He was attended by Dr. Mash, of Northampton, who soon discovered that in addition to other injuries he was suffering from umbilical hernia. He went to the seaside, and for a time was in such a nervous state that be could not bear the sight of anything that had the slightest appearance of danger, and at times they were obliged to blindfold hint while be was walking. His back and head bad got better, but even now he was unable to write more than one letter, and could only partially attend to business, in consequence of which his salary was reduced by M. Dr. Mash .tated that umbilical hernia was dangerous to Wei( the truss was not kept on, and that unless the plaintiff used great care, it might become strangulated hernia. Dr. F.rricson, senior surgeon at the University Hospital, and professor in the London University, stated that ho had examined the plaintiff a fortnight ago in consultation with Dr. Mash, and found him suffering from tenderness in the head and bridge of the nose, and great tenderness be , ween the shoulders, indicating that the spine had been strained. He found a rupture in the abdomen about the size of a walnut, which was perfectly reducible. This was quite incurable, was always dangerous to life, and might become strangulated at any time; stooping down, cough ing, or straining in any way :night produce that result, and an umbilical rupture was far more serious than any other. Dr. Flewitt, • physician, and member of the College of Surgeons, was called, but before his evidence was con cluded, the defendants consented to • verdict for the plaintiff—damages 1,0401.

Christian-street, St. George's in-the-East, a clerk in the service of Mr. Thomas }air dough, raid the prisoner was in their employment, and on the Bth or 9th of January, on his coming home, the prisoner said that in consequence of the street being very slippery, lie had run into a cart with his waggon, and had caused some damage. Witness asked him if be blew the parties, and he said be did, upon which he was told to go and see what he could do about it. The fol lowing day he said he had seen the parties, and that the damage would come to 16s. ; but as it was purely an accident, and as he was a poor man, they would let him off fur Bs. if the " governor ' would let him have the money. Witness said he would speak to Mr. Fairciough about it, and he had no doubt he would let him have the money. Witness afterwards gave him Bs. on the faith of this story. About a week afterwards he asked the prisoner if be had got a receipt for the money. H e said be had not, when witness said they must have a receipt, or they might have the parties again applying to them for the money. The prisoner promised toget one, and some days afterwards brought what purported to be a receipt for the Bs. from a person named Wells, without any address ; but in answer to questions put to hint, he said be kept a fish shop about half-way down East-street, Walwortb. inquiriesSubse mthoew he foundt) rovett htt t h s e t re was East-st ree t, IN;ctblv'eor;tich7 keeping a suspicion arose that the whole story of the injury was a fabrication. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. The Assistant-Judge sentenced him to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for three months. Ellen Leonard, 30, was indicted for stealing a shawl, value Se., the property of James H►rgood. The prisoner took the shawl from a pawnbroker's door in Vauxhall-bridge-road, but being seen to take it, was followed, and given into custody with the shawl in her The jury immediately found her Guilty. Mn. Howe, warder at Westminster Prison, put in seve ral previous convictions against the prisoner. The prisoner entreated the mercy of the court for the sake of five young children, who would be 'left without a mother. The husband of the prisoner, a frank and respectable looking man, said his wife was a good mother except when she was led away by drinking people, and induced to for get her duty to her children. He also hoped the court would show mercy for the sake of the children. The Assistant-Judge, after a consultation with the ma gistrates on the bench, sentenced her to twelve months' hard labour, giving her a caution for the future. THE POLICE COURTS MANSION-HOUSE. Mr. George Henry Farrington, of No. 17, Great Knight rider-street, appeared before the Lord Mayor to answer a summons calling upon him to show cause why he refused to pay to Mr. John Wotherspoon, Mr. Thomas Lane Cowan, and Mr. Joseph Woodcock, being the parties en titled to the tithes appertaining to the rectory and par sonage of the pariah of St. Gregory by St. Paul, the sum of 6/. 17s. 6d. for the oblations, tithes, and obventions justly due from the defendant to the complainants on the 9th Sept. hut, contrary to the provisions of the statutes of the 7th and Bth William 111., cap. 34, and the 53rd George 111., cap. 127. The defendant, who appeared in person, when called upon by the chief clerk (Mr. Oke) to answer the summons, stated that the allegation was quite true, but being one of the Society of Friends, commonly called Quakers, he enter tained conscientious scruples to pay the demand. In reply to questions put by the Lord Mayor, the defen dant admitted that he had taken the premises upon which the tithes were now sought to be recovered with the know ledge that they were liable ; but last year he bad resisted the claim on principle, and was then told by the then Lord Mayor (Sir B. S. Phillips) that this was not a question of conscience. The Lord Mayor remarked that he had nothing to do with any opinion expressed by the late Lord Mayor, but the liability having been admitted, he had no other course to pursue but to order the immediate payment of the amount claimed, and in default that a distress warrant should forthwith issue to levy the same. The defendant said the law mutt take its course, and put on his hat, which he was ordered to remove, and thus he retired. GMLDHALL. A gentlem&nlylooking young man, who at the station refused to give any name or address, but in the dock stated that his name was Theodore Edward Carter, that he had no occupation, but lived upon his property, was charged before Sir Robert W. Carden with committing a violent and brutal assault upon one of the railway officials at the Aklef!gateatreet station. . Thomas HZrvey, station-porter on the Metropolitan Railway at the Aldersgate-street station, said that on the previous night, about a quarter-past 9 o'clock, he saw the prisoner on the platform of the railway station, very drunk. He requested him to leave, as he was far gone in %nor ; and the prisoner said, " I think you are right ; I go." He left, and about half-an-hour afterwards he found him outside the station. He passed him, and when his back was towards him the prisoner struck him a vio lent blow on his head with an umbrella he had in his hand. He turned round to see who had struck him, and then received another blow from the umbrella, which cut his lip and partially stunned him. The prisoner then seized him by the beard, and pulled a large quantity of it out. Witness called for assistance, and the booking clerk and ticket-collector came. He then closed with the prisoner, when the latter got his thumb into his mouth and bit it severely. The prisoner maid be was very sorry, and would make the prosecutor any compensation the magistrate would name. Sir H. W. Carden mid he could not deal with the came in that way. If he were a poor mane fine would be inflicted, which in all probability he would not be able to pay, and would have to go to prison. He would not make any dif ference between an independent gentleman and a poor man, and as • fine would be no punishment to him, he should sentence him to twenty-one days' imprisonment with hard labour, without the option of a fine. The prisoner pleaded hard to have • floe inflicted instead of imprisonment, but Sir H. W. Carden refused. WESTMINSTER. Thomas Waterman, superintendent of the casual ward at the St. Margaret's workhouse, Westminster, was re examined, charged with assaulting Elizabeth Cook, a casual pauper. It appeared from the prosecutrix's statement, that last Monday night week she went and asked for a lodging, and wasgiven ► ticket of admission tothe workhouse. She was ordered into a dirty bath, and because she refused to take it the defendant seized her by the shoulder', threw her with her clothes on into a bath, and turned a cold water tap on her, by which she was deprived of breath and shaken very much. She was then very roughly handled, and taken up to bed. For the defence, it was contended that the complainant was drunk at the time, and upon coming into the bath-room was ordered to take a bath which another person had washed in ; she refused to take it, and also a clean one which was offered her. She then sat down on the edge of the dirty bath, and when she got up was so drunk that she fell into the other Our, and in so doing, caught hold of the tap and turned it on. The defend:tot pulled her out. tihe was very abusive, and tried to assault the defendant's wife, and had to be carried up to bed. The witness, how ever, who deposed to these facts, was very confused and contradictory in her story ; and Mr. Arnold adjourned the coo for further evidence. Mr. W. D. Smyth, of Rochester-row, defended the ac cused, and cross-examined the complainant, by which it appeared that she had been charged with attempting to committ suicide, and taken to Marylebone workhouse by order of the magistrate. She was there in the insane ward for three months, but family matters had preyed on her mind. She had been lined 405., and suffered a month in default, fur assaulting the porter at Marylebone workhouse. For the defence, Mr. Tubbs, assistant overseer at Marylebone, was called, and said she was a notorious drunkard, and had suffered from delirium tremens. He would not believe her on her oath, and stated as his reasons that she bad deceived him and other people. He had known her ten years, and drunkenness had affected her intellect. A wallow named Napoleon McCann was called, and said he had her boy, 14 years of age, with . She was a drunkard, and upon more than one occasion had taken the boy's wages and spent them in drink, deserting him. Evidence was also given to show that her two boys had been clothed by the parish. She had sold the clothes, got drunk, and gone out to beg with them. Mr. Arnold stopped the case. From the woman's cha racter and general conduct he felt sure no jury would convict the defendant upon her unsupported testimony ; at the same time, one fact was left unexplained, and that was how the porter came to give her, drunk as she was alleged to be, a ticket for the workhouse. He thought that matter should certainly be inquired into by the parish authorities. He then dismissed the summons. At the Dull ingdon Divisional Petty Sessions, holden at the County-ball, Oxford, on Saturday, Job Colwell, labourer, of Stanton St. John, was charged with cruelly ill-treating and torturing a dog, on February 2. The case, which was prosecuted by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, was clearly proved, and the defendant sentenced to three months' imprisonment with hard labour.

Key, to the Achilles. oviliENA mIRNEY, AND CO. The following circular has just been forwarded to tho creditors of Overted, Gurney, and Co. (Limited): 65, Lombard-street, London, March 6. Having been appointed on the committee of supervision to represent specially the interests of the creditors in the liquidation of Overend, Gurney, and Co. (Limited), I have been repeatedly urged by individual creditors to call some of the principal creditors together, and confer with th em as to the best course to be adopted ; but I deferred doing so while the cue of the repudiating shareholders was pending before the Vice-Chancellor. Immediately, however, his Honour's decision had been pronounced, I was prepared to take action in the matter ; and having obtained the statement of the liquidators as to the present position of the assets and liabilities, I called the principal creditors together, and submitted for their consideration the several alternative courses which had from time to time been sug gested to me, viz. :HI.) To insist on payment in full of the creditors claims, with interest. (2.) To give up the interest in consideration of the principal being paid at agreed dates, Im. (making 155.) in the pound by 31st December, 1867, and 55., the balance, by the ca d of 186 d. (3.) To accept a composition of 17s. Gd. in the pound if paid before the end of 1867. (4.) To release indi vidual creditors on their payment of another call of either 5/. or 101. per share, as might be agreed. The third and fourth alternatives were almost unani mously rejected by the creditors present at the con rence , but although at first individual creditors mooed objections to it, the general feeling of the creditors present was strongly in favour of adopting the second alternative, viz., to accept payment of the principal, without interest, in consideration of the former being paid by the dates be fore stated, but if default be made in payment of any of these instalments, the whole claim to revive both for prin cipal and interest. If any one has • right to insist on pay ment in full of principal and interest, it is myself, inasmuch as my claim is for 15,0001., deposited with the company only the day before the stoppage, I not having previously had any connection with the company either as creditor or share holder. My claim for interest alone is a large Bumper annum, yet, after careful consideration of all the circumstances, I hue determined on agreeing to accept thesecond alternative, and I sincerely trust that you may see your way to adopt the same course. It is impossible within the compass of • circular to state all the reasons which have influenced me in coming to this decision ; and in order that the matter may be most fully considered, I have determined to call a meeting of all the creditors at the London Tavern on Friday, the 15th day of March inst., at 1 o'clock, at which your attendance is earnestly invited ; hut if you should be unable to attend, an A ti o rrove of the course which I recommend, will you be enough to sign and return to me the enclosed communications on the subject of this circular can be addressed to me at the above address, or to my solicitors, Messrs. Ashurst, Morris, and Co., 6, Old Jewry, London, am your obe dient servant, CHARLES OPPENHELL MARKETS. COTTON.—Lrreßroot, Moult a—There Is no change to re port In ourinarket ; prices steady.

COTTON 00006.—MANCHESTI4 MARCH o.—Meurs. Ellison and Haywood, cotton brokers of Liverpool, have Issued their circular for the present mouth, and in their review of the tr•de daring February, estimate the imports Into the country at 226,864 bales : total exports light, being 64,287, against 91.587 for the same month last year. They estimate the quantity taken for home consumption at 36,714 bales per week, and the actual conAlimptit.ii at 40,000 per week against 49.000 In the previous month, and 45,000 per week during the latter part of last )ear. The receipts at the American ports up to Feb. 2.8, they give at 1,309.000, against 1,195,000 same date last year. Of the Man chester market they give what appears to be a very reliable ac count :—.• With the exception of a temporary Improvement at the close of the first week, during which a comparatively good business was done at low prices, and whereby producers were to some extent relieved of stocks, the Manchester market has been exceedingly dull and gloomy In tone through out the month ; and notwithstanding that the out turn of goods has been considerably reduced by the further spread of the short-time movement, the tendency of stocks has been to accumulate. The uncertainty in which the ultimate extent of the American crop is Involved, and the discouraging accounts and returns received from the principal foreign mar kets, have deterred buyers from operating to an extent sufficiently large to take off the reduced production of spin ners and manufacturers. All departments of the trade, both home and foreign, have been very slack; buyers fur the more distant markets being especially cautious in their dealings. Under these circumstances It is not surprising that the position of pnitinters continues moat unsatisfactory. It has improved slightly during the past week or no. owing to the rapid decline in the twit* of cotton, but it is still very unrenumerative. slur comparative table of prices shows a dechne of Id per lb.
