[The case was proceeding when our report left.] POLICE COURTS.-(THIS DAY.) CLERKENWELL. ATTEMPTING TO PICK POCKETS AT THE GREAT NOIITRZEN RAILWAY. John Smith and John Norry, young fellows about 23 years of age, were charged before Mr. Barker, with at tempting to pick pockets at the Great Northern Railway, King's-eras& Mr. G. 0. Nash, solicitor, defended ; Mr. Kitson watched the case on behalf of the company. From the evidence of William Thorogood, one of the company's detectives, it appeared that about i o'clock yesterday afternoon, he saw the prisoners with another attempting to pick pockets on the platform. The prisoner Smith, who was carrrag a cost, attempted the pockets of no lees than four ladies and whilst the prisoners were in the booking office Smith was seen, both by Thorogood and an officer of the name of Ranaley, to put his hand into the pocket of a lady. Smith gave a correct address, and Norey a false address. Nothing was known of the antecedents of Smith, but Norey was, it was stated, known to the police as frequenting railway stations for the purpose of committing felony. Mr. Nash said that it was • case of suspicion only, and asked for the dismissal of the prisoners. Mr. Barker sentenced the prisoners to three months' bard labour in the House of Correction. THAMES. LEMING NONZT AT 400 PEE CENT. INTRUST.

In December last the prisoner applied for a loan of 51., and then gave the name 4,1 a person in Lucas-street, St. George's-in-the-Bast, :lying exactly opposite to him. He was not satisfied with security, and demanded another, which was furnished. Prisoner showed him receipts for rent purporting to be rigned by his landlord, for two years. He agreed to lend the prisoner 51., and advanced him the money in the pre /WI:ICC of his two sureties, Mr. Chaplin and Mr. Pate, de ducting 12s. 6d. for interest, in addition to 2s. lid. for in. ~ uiries, which was for work and labour done. Mr. Benson said that 15e. was paid for the loan and Si. sa weeks, to be paid at the rate of 2s. 6d. per week. P. was an enormous rate of interest. For the last half- Lruwn, the fortieth week, it would be at the rate of 400 rant. It must be a very profitable business.) I:,,usen said it was not profitable because be lost a 6 deal of money by it.

Roskell, Arrowsmith, and Kendall's bank, which suspended paym ent on Mon was held in the Preston Corn Ex yesterday “fternoon, for the purpose of hearing the= of the in -litigation made into the affairs of the concern during the week. Mr. R. Ascroft, Town Clerk of Preston, stated that in 1 , 4:0 the bank was little more than solvent, but that there i. 4.1 been no extravagance on the part of the firm. He also r..ad a statement explaining the financialstatus of the bank, from which it appeared that the total debts amounted to 72...1 v. xe., and the total assets to 41,958/. 10s. lid. Mr. As.roft said that a dividend of about 11s. 6d. would be , e4tsed. The failure was owing entirely to a large mm huh bad been lent to Mr. Asboroft, a cotton manufac tur-r, of Walton•le-Dale. Mr. Plant, solicitor, of Preston, ti..,ie in a condemnatory manner of the conduct of the Gen, and stated that the whole concern had been an unt: ense sham—a downright farce upon banking, and a Call plate burlesqueupon the public. The chairman stated I.at the first dividend would be made in three months, ,-nd would amount to :is. 4d. in the pound. It was agreed to wind up the concern by a deed of assignment. , I'IDENT AT BEDFORD.—Laat Monday several /Q. , . were at work at Mr. James Howard's premises, exce ss:s.g the earth prior to laying down the pipes for the 'hs.c, when, at a depth of nearly seven feet, the brick kof an old drain gave way, on four of them, rcderin g th em completely help l es s. Their perilous con dition was of course seen by follow•worlonen, who, heeded by Mr. Moore, the contractor, immediately sat to work to release them. This was moon effected. It was laiind three of them had received injuries, one being rallied to be removed to the infirmary. The earth was lint shored up, and this of course led to the accident. Considerable excitement prevailed inthe neighbourhood on tie fact becoming known, and a crowd of 4flo or 500 ppeer- see soon assembled on the spot.— Cosibridge in • FIVA E WW' B4 4 ( T WA I YI ( X , BETTING IN LONDON.--(TME DAY.) 2.30, P.

For the benefit of the admmen of some of the " cracks " at head-quarters, Bell's Life gives an account of their doings. Typhoeus commenced active work again on Thursday ; should he stand a now necessarily severe preparation, which is very doubtful, he will scarcely Kr rive at perfection by the Derby day. The quondam Two Thousand favourites, Pace and Harvester have left the scene of their disgrace for a time. Whether a change will work any improvement remains to be proved ; but their trial in the great event of the First Spring bodes ill for their chants, of higher honours. Rebhan is doing steady work, but he still carries about with him those awkward-looking hocks. No horse is going or looking better than Speculum ; he le just now commencing strong work again, after a few week's indulgence. His perfor mance in the Craven week, where he just managed to get in front of Lord Glasgow's filly, must not be taken as a fair criterion of merit, he evidently being all to pieced at the time, and had done but little work after his successful trip to Epsom. The coming champion of the white and crimson, the Tom Bowline colt, is big enough if he is only good enough ; he is looking in fi rst-rate condition, but there is a lack of quality about him one generally sees, and expects to see in Derby winners. If nothing unforeseen occurs he will be fit to run, and this is all that can be ad vanced in his favour at present. Concerning the Baron's lot it would be difficult to find animals doing and going better in private, and they are looking in superb condition, and have hitherto been brought to the post so, but this only tends to make the soft manner in which they cut up the more inexplicable. The delicate Hermit, who is erroneously supposed to have broken a blood-vessel in his match, appears unable to shake off the effects of his de cisive defeats by Julius, as he has not since made his ap pearance on the heath ; but his conqueror, on the con trary, never appeared to greater advantage than at the present time, and he takes his daily Fellow in fine style. The Sporting Life says that during the race for the Chester Cup, in the last half-mile, • dastardly attempt was made to disable the favourite. A brick was thrown at the two leading honer, but fortunately no more misohief arose than the missile alighting on the thigh of Gradwell, the rider of The Clown. Mr. Barber says there was no doubt the brick was intended for Paul Jones, and Grad well was so much hurt that he returned home on Thum day, the lad having evidently undergone • great shook to his nervous system. The Sporting Gazette announce, that the Duke of Hamil ton's Gouvernail, winner of the French Two Thousand on Sunday last, has returned to Mat Dawson's stables, New market, to finish his preparations for the French Derby.— Mr. J. Stephenson has despatched an agent to Austria to endeavour to re-purchase Buccaneer "at any price."—One of the earliest of the yearling sales will take place at Tat tersall's on the Monday before the Derby, when the year ling, bred at Donnington by the Marquis of Hastings will be brought to the hammer. They are ten in number—five colt, and five fillies—and include Lady Betty (own sister to Lady Elizabeth) a half sister to Redcap and Cuckoo by Blair Athole, a colt by Prime Minister out of the speedy Attraction, Re. The Field states that Rosicrucian had • narrow escape from death by choking on its journey from Newmarket to Kingsclere last week. While he was being conveyed from Bishopsgate to Waterloo station, and, Rear the latter terminus, one of his attendants discovered that some of the hay which be bad been eating had " gone the wrong way," and that he appeared to be dying. Hurrying on to Waterloo, the horse was there taken out of his box, and, after some difficulty, towed the obstruction. He has since, we believe, been going on satisfactorily. The Sporting Gazette regrets to announce the death of Mr. Johnstone, which took place at his residence, Glou cester-place, Portman-square, on Tuesday last. Mr. Johnstone was well known in racing circles as the owner of Marionette, who was second for the "Blue Riband " in Musjid's year ; and though he ran First Born, so called from being the first of that horse's progeny, in the Derby of 1866, ill health necessitated the deceased's retirement from public life of late years. Mr. Johnstone was one of the two well-known brothers, whose distinguishing *ego°. men amongst their friends was "major" and "minor," the latter of whom survives him. Richard Cotton, the trainer, was seized with a fit whilst out with his horses at exercise on Thursday morning, but we are happy to state that the effects of a really dangerous seizure are not likely to prove Genoal. The Field has received further intelligence confirming the outbreak of the grouse disease in the north of Scot land. In several of the moors of Aberdeenshire and Perthshire the disease is so prevalent that the lessees have been advised to give the grouse " a jubilee this year." THE Coxvicr MICHAEL BARerrr.—The Morn ing Post publishes the following:—" Glasgow, Friday Night.—The commissioners ►ppointed to inquire into the cue of the above convict sat again to-day. Five witnesses were examined, when the alibi completely broke down. There is every probability of the sentence being carried out. The commissioners return to Londoa to-night."

Heygate, Lord J. Hamilton, and two other gentle men who entertain similar views regarding the Irish church. The object of those present, it is understood, was to determine whether, as Irish members, they should assume a course distinctly hostile to Mr. G ladstone's reso lutions, and take means to show the fell strength of the uncompromising adherents of the Irish establishment. Ultimately, it was not considered wise to take any line which might tend to give the party a semblance of non cohesion. SPECIAL THEATRICAL PERFORMANCE.

GITEIII2OEE CASTLE,—DISCOVERY or THE CAOSE or THE FIRS.—The mystery enveloping the cause of the lamentable conflagration at Greystolce Castle on Monday, appears now to be explained, and the conjecture that the fire had its origin in a defective flue turns out to be correct. Yesterday the mamas and joiners who were ewiged in removing the &brio, found two beams of wood w hi ch had joined in a flue extending from the dining-room to a corner between the porch room and the picture gallery. The ends of the beams are charred, and as the fire was dis covered at the place where the flue was situated, there can be little doubt that the fire originated in the flue.-Balia• bury Journal. ARRIVAL or LARGE ELINIAIITS.—Mr. W. B. Tegetmeier, writing to the Aoki wee as amount of a gigantic el ephant in the of Mr. C. Else, of St. George-street, Ratoliff. This /Areal is now twenty eight years old, and was presented in 1849 by the Shah of Persia to the Emperor Nicholas of Russia, being then nine years of age.

BRIDGE TO THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTER BITRY.—(TED3 DAY.) Thin morning a large deputation from the Uni versity of Cambridge waited upon the Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth ?slam, on the inked of Hr. Ooleridge's bill now before parliament. The archbiahop, who was attended by the Hon. Mr. Bourke, his chaplain, and Mr. Dunning, his secretary, received the deputation in the library. Amongst those present were the Right Hon. H. S. Wel. pole, HP., Mr. A. J. Berstford Hope, M.P., Mr. Schreiber, H.P., Lord John Thrum, the Bishop of Ely, the Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol, Archdeacon Bicker steth, and others. A number of letters of apology for non-attendszae, but curpremelng sympathy with the object of the deputation, were med. The Right Hon. R. W•xeout, M.P. Introdatied the deputation, and presented the follo wing memorial:— "To his Grace the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of all ear itiland, and Metropolita n.—W e the undersigned wites of the University of Cambridge have h with the deepest concern that legis lation is contemplated in the present session of parlia ment, by which members who are not members of the church of Ragland, and even person. who do not profess the Christian religion at all, may become public professors or teachers in the university and take part in its government and administration, and may also be elected into fellowships, tutorship., headships, and other oelces or colleges, and may be en trusted with the moral control and education of students, even though each student may be intended for holy order". We earnestly deprecate and solemnly protest against inch legislation as destruc tive of the connexion between the University and the Church, and as tending to sever education from religion, and we therefore most respectfully entreat your grim to adopt mach measures as you may deem most effectual to prevent it." The memorial was signed by noblemen, bishops, clergy of various degrees, and a large number of fellows, tutors, and non-resident graduates. Several heads of houses and others, pointed out to his grace how, in their opinion, the proposed measure would operate in reference to the government of the respective colleges, and tutors pointed out how it would interfere with their course of tuition. Other gentleman pointed out the dangers which would arise, politically, morally, religiously, and socially if Mr. Coleridge's bill should become law. The Archbishop of CArrannunr, in reply, said he entered fully into the feelings of those who bad addressed him, and quite understood with what alarm those who were responsible for the government and teaching of the univer roreals ally regarded the pro now before parliament. He was a member of the commission which ten years ago was instrumental in t e r settlement by which the endowments of universities were secured to the ohm ch and he could not now consent to any measure by which that settlement ' would be in any way interrupted. He believed that to entrust the religious teaching of the University te men who bad no religious creed would inevitably tend to sap the very foundations of Christianity. Under such a system religious teaching must in the end be altogether abo lished. One result would be that private institutions would he established, in which the clergy would be trained apart from the laity, which he conceived would be a heavy blow to the church and nation. He should, therefore, stre nuously resist any measure which, like that now before parliament, placed in peril the Christian character of the education of the national universities. _ . _ Mr. WALPOLE thanked his graoe for his courtesy, and the deputation retired.
