V *parting intelltionts. TATTERSALL'S.—MONDAT. The mumblers to-day bore signs of improvement, both I as regards numbers and influence, and although specula tion did not mice a very wide range, some good business was transacted. For the Linooln Handicap King Charm bag was backed pretty freely at 10 to 1, and at a point more Czar came in for moderate support. The next most noticeable feature in connexion with this event was the hacking of Leases, about whom 2,500 to 100 was taken in one het, and the same odds were buccal times accepted to mullet sums. The other horses mentioned in the quotations were not backed for much. Very little was dote on the Liverpool Grand National, and that I little did not exhibit any change or feature. For the Chester Cup 20 to 1 was taken about Aber geldis, but nothing else was backed. Speculation on the Two Thousand was noteworthy for the support awarded to Pace, the noble owner investing 7001. on him at S to 1 : this horse was also backed at G to I, " with a start." 16 to 1 was laid against Typhoeus, and at 7 to 1 he also was backed, with a race. Sir J. Hawley's lot would have been supported at 7 to 4, and the transactions on the race oon eluded by laying 500 to 200 on Rosicrusian versus For mosa, " both to run." For the Derby there was no change in the position of the favourites. 6to I was taken about Lady Elizabeth to a small amount, and 100 to 15 was offered against Roaierusiau, with a counter offer to accept 7to 1. Pace was spportsd for this race also by his noble owner at 2,500 to DO and 1,000 to 80, and another 100 or no was invested in other quarters at the same price. The remaining transactions do not call for special mention.

T.l day ' s transactions were remarkable for the extraor dinary amount of wagering that took place on the Lincoln Handicap. When the betting- first opened, it looked as though Meant Palatine was about to be backed for money, as 20 to 1 was taken about him ; but after • little while. hie stable companion came with • rush, and found support to a large sum of money, from HO to 6 down to 100 to 9. In fact, he left off first favourite. Although 10 to 1 was occasionally taken about Cur, he did not manage to maintain his position very firmly, and at the close 11 to 1 was offered without a response. Purveyor was backed to win a good attic. at prime ranging from 100 to oto 100 to 8, while I.:ley Stocking, Rhine Wine, Hanby, and Indiges tion were very substantially supported at 100 to ti emelt. Meanwhile. Mount Palatine retired to rAi to 1. The betting en the Liverpool Grand National was extremely limited, and the noticeable incident was that Thalassius found favour at 15 to I—a shorter price than has yet been taken about t u na. For the Two Thousand, Green Sleeve was backed pretty freely at BM to 6, but subsequently 20 to 1 was t iken and offered. The big bet of 700 to 400 was booked alout Sir J. Bewley's lot. The Derby betting again showed Blue lition's friends to be on the alert, 1,000 to :al king taken about him four or five times in the mauve of the rimming, and at the close this price was not obtainable.

THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 11, 1868 Sint firm. THE SOCIETY OF FINALE ARTISTS. The exhibition of this society is now open for the twelfth Bevan at the Gallery in Conduit-street, Re gent-street ; and it is gratifying to see, both by the large number of pictures and the general advance in the merit of the works, that the lady artists are determined to suc ceed in maintaining an exhibition of their own. As we have so frequently had to say, it is very much to be re gretted that such a society has not hitherto commanded the full interest of all the painters of the sex. There can be no question whatever as to the great desirability of some centre which should not only enable all the world to see what women can do in art in that distinct manner which can only be appreciated in • separate exhibition, but which at the same time will naturally become • source of social support to the oontributors in many directions. The very few women who are gifted with the genius and the application to make them equal or occasionally superior to men as painters are naturally proud of the position they can take in the Academy and other exhibitions. But we submit with great deformce that this is the very reason why they ought to make • point of &Attributing to a special exhibition like this of the Society of Female Artists. Let them reserve their great efforts; for the comparison with the works of the best artists of the Academy and the water-colour socie ties; but to our thinking, they would always be doing a graceful and generous thing in contributing their support to this society. filtunc. MONDAY POPULAR CONCERTS. The following selection was performed last night: Quartet, in D. OD 44 " Deeper, and deeper WAIL" L HandeL Air. 1" Wait her, anent" Sonata, In C, pianoforte Weber. Pk ST I. PART 11. Ltaler Ohne Warta. Pianoforte Regret." Songs {"Ou every tree that thalamus In t h e Schubert. Quintet, Op. s 7 Hummel. - - The novelties in the above programme were the solo pieces of Heller and the pianoforte Quintet of Hummel, per formed for the first time at these concerts. The Lieder °lane Work of Helier (Nos. 2,4, and 7 from Op. 120), are among the latest but not the best of this composer's pro ductions. The exquisite form of the Lied Wine Work, originated and perfected by Mendelsohn, has been so thoroughly wrought out by that master, that all imitations, however clever, seem a superfluous waste of talent. The pieces now referred to are strained and affected, and want ing in that natural flow and grace, and tbst completeness of development within limited outlines, which are so ad mirable in the originals of Mendelssohn. Stephen Heller has written much pianoforte music impressed with a dis tinct individuality of character; full of poetical idealism and romantic fancy ; with which these recent productions are 'scarcely worthy of comparison. Although they re ceived every advantage from the refined and finished per formance of Mr. Halle, they did not make any marked impression. Hununel's Quintet a later work than his celebrated Septet in 1) minor— while neither so elaborate nor so interesting, bee yet much of the charm which that composer's graceful style and rich variety of passage writing for the pianoforte im parts to most of his music for that instrument. The open ing allegro is especially bold and vigorous in subject and treatment ; and the final rondo full of elegance and vivacity, notwithstanding the sombre key in which the piece is written. The Quintet, although placed at the end of the programme, detained most of the audience, and was received with every expression of tdessure—a result largely owing to its excellent performance by Mr. Halle and his coadjutors, Herr Straus, Messrs. H. Blagrove, risque. anti Reynolds. The first of Weber's four solo sonatas, with its impetuous finale known as "It moto continuo," has before been played at these concerts by Mr. Halle, but never with greater effect than last night. The bravura passages in which this difficult piece abounds, were executed with a power and self-command that belong only to thorough art training ; while the im pulsive final rondo was given with an impetus and unflag ging energy that could not be surpassed. Mendelssohn's Quartet (the third of the seven pieces of thatches which he produced) was given with excellent effect, aa it has been on various previous occasions at these concerts. Of Mr. Sims Reeves' admirable declamation in the recitative, and refined expression in the air, of Handel ; and of his unaf fected pathos in the two lieder of Schubert (the second en cored), it is only necessary to say that they were equal to any former manifestations of this artist's admirable powers. At the concert of Monday next Herr Joachim is to make his first appearance this season. Drama. PRINCkZ.S'S. Last night Mr. Boucicault's two suocesoful dramas, The Colleen Batcn and The Street. of London, were withdrawn from the bills of this house, and their places were supplied by The Octoroon and ArraJt-na-Pogue —two plays by the same prolific author that are both familiar to the London public. The house was full, and the principal performers were warmly received. MAILS TO INDIA, CHINA, AND AUSTRALIA.—A new contract having been concluded with the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, the following alterations will be made in the arrangements for despatch ing mails to India, Chine, and Australia after the dope r ture of the mails of the 20th and 2tith of February :—The mails for the East Indies will be forwarded wholly to Bombay, end will be made up in Loudon on the morning of every Saturday, commencing with Saturday, the 20th of February, for tranernissioa, via Southampton, and on the evening of every Friday, commencing with Friday, the oth of March. for transmission, viA Marseilles. The mails for Ceylon, Singapore, Labuan, Java, the Philippine Islands, Hong Kong, China, and Japan will be made up on the morning of Saturday, 28th of February, and the even ing of Friday. the fith of March ; the next mails will be made up on the morning of Saturday, the 21st of March, and the evening of Friday, the 27th of Ranh ; and thence. forward there +ill be a despatch on the morning of every al ternate Saturday, and the evening of every alternate Friday. The packets will not call at Penang, and the correspon dence for that settlement will be forwarded in the mails for Singapore. A branch packet will leave Shanghai for Yokohama, calling at :Nagasaki, Immediately after the arrival of each mail from England. The fiat mails far Australia under the new arrangement will be made up on the morning of Saturday, the 21st of March, and the evening of Friday, the 27th of March, and thenceforward on every fourth Saturday and Friday throughout the year. As the packet from Marseilles to Alexandria will not call at Malta, the correspondence for that island will be sent wholly by the weekly packet from Southampton. The first mailsfrom India, Ceylon, China, Japan, and Australia will be due on the morning ofMonday, the 23rd of Marsh, via Marseilles. and on the evening of Saturday, the 28th of March, via Southampton ; and thenceforward—from India on the to swing of every Monday, viA Manatee, and on the evening of every Saturday, via Southampton ; from Ceylon and China, on the morning of every alternate Monday, and the evening of every alternate Saturday ; and from Australia. on the morning of every fourth Mon day, and the evening2f every fourth Saturday. A CHCItcH on FIDE AT Mearnra.--Duzing the evening service at Bt. David's, Merthyr, on Sunday the clerk saw, with alarm, that the stove pipe had become red hot at the top near the roof, and that the roof was on fire. The alarm was instantly given, and a scene ensued of the most startling character. The people screamed and rushed to the doors, and in an incredible space of time the church was cleared of the congregation. Then a rush was made for the fire plugs, and, by the energetic aid of Mr. Superin tendent Wrenn, the fire was soon got under. A " MARRIAGE 'cit. Fos."—jn the Wayne Cir cuit Court yesterday, one of the most novel suits for di vorce ever instituted was concluded by the granting of the prayer of the petitioner. The case is that of a marriage which was performed in this city in August last, which was first made public through th e columns of the Free Press. As will be remembered, the young man and young woman in question, Mr. Wm. W. Bowers and Miss Julia L. Madison, at an evening party bantered each other to marry, and in the same spirit of jest that prompted the bantering proceeded to the residence of a clergyman, where the ceremony was performed, the minister, how ever, not being let into the secret, but supposing the mar riage to be in earnest and the inteetios of the ponies bona Ode to become husband and wife. To the sorrow of the maid and the chagrin of her other half, who had been made unwittingly • husband, the clergyman pro- ermined his opinion that they were not only "soinewhas married," as Artemus Ward said of BrlghamYoung, but the truth also came home to the_parCee that they were a pest deal too much married. The result was that the yowls maiden, entirely innocent and unsophisticated in the ways of married life, was obliged to go before the overt and have the consequences of her silly frivolity set aide and annulled by judicial form. Of coarse the young man. the partner of her sorrows, did not appear to defend himself against the claim for a divorce, and the decree asked for by the petitioner was greeted,—Deenit Prot Prem. DEATH OF SIB DAVID BEEN sm. We learn from Edinburgh that Sir David Brewster died last evening, at hie sot. Annie, Rowe, near Melrose. The donned was bone at Jedbargh, to 1781, and was consequently in his 87th year. We learn from "Men of the Time" that he was educated for the church of Scotland, of whisk he became a licentiate ; and in 1800 he received the honorary degree of M.A. from the University d Edinburgh. While studying there, Mr. Brewster enjoyed the friend ship of Robison, who then filled the chair of natural phi losophy; of Mayfair, professor of mathematics ; and of Dugald Stewart, profaner d meal philosophy. In 1808 he undertook the editorship of the "Edinburgh Ennio panne," which wee only finished in 1830. In 1807 be re ceived the honorary degree of LL.D. from the University of Aberdeen, and subsequently the degree of A.M. from Cambridge, and of D.C.L. from Oxford and Durham. In 1808 he was elected • Fellow of the Royal Society of Edin burgh, and afterwards filled the aloes of secretary and vice-president. Between 1801 and 1812, Dr. Brewster devoted his attention chiefly to the study of optics, and the results were published in • " Treaties on New Philoso phical Instruments," in 1813. In 1811, while writing the article " Bunting In truments" in the " Edinburgh Encyclopaedia," he was led (from • proposal el I Button) to suggest the construction of a lens est of zones of glass, each of which might be built up of several circular segments, and to propose its application to an apparatus connoting of lenses and mirrors, by which the whole light of the ran could be collected into a burning focus, or condensed into • parallel beam of light. This beautiful invention, now in nee in nay new Without* I in Great Britain and the colonies, was therweris nen fully developed by him in the " Edinburgh Tranmenena." l In 1815 Dr. Brewster received the Copley medal d the Royal Society for his discovery of the law of the polaris- 1 tion of light by Teflon" and soon after was &diminish • fellow of that body. In 1816 the Institute el Tramps adjudged to him half of the prize of 3,000 francs, awarded for two of the most important discoveries made in Europe, in any branch of scion" during the two preceding years ; end in 1819 Dr. Brewster received from the Royal Society the Rumford gold and silver medals, the Royal gold and silver medals, for his discoveries on the polarization of light, and the Keith Prize twice for his discovery of two new finds in minerals and his analysis of solar light. In 1816 he invented the kaleido- scope, the patent right of which was evaded, so that the inventor gained little beyond fame, though the large isle of the instrument must have produced considerable profit. He is the inventor also of the lenticular stereoscope, now in universal use. In 1819, he, in conjunction with Professor Jameson, established the " Edinburgh Phi losophical Journal," and subsequently commenced the " Edinburgh Journal of Science," of which sixteen volumes appeared. In 1823 the Institute of Felines elected Dr. Brewster a corresponding member; and he received the same honour from the Royal Academies of Russia, Prussia, Austria, Sweden, Denmark, &c. In 1831 he proposed the scientific meeting at York which led to the establishment of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. In 1831 Dr. Brewster received the decoration of the Hano verian Guelphic Order, and in 1832 the honour of knight hood from William IV. In 1838 Sir David Brewster was nominated by the Crown Principal of the United Colleges of St. Salvator and St. Leonard, St. Andrews, and in 1859 he was appointed Principal of the University of Edinburgh by a unanimous vote of the Lord Provost, magistrates, and council of the city. Sir David Brewster edited and wrote various works, besides contributing largely to the Edin burgh, the Quarterly, and the North British Rerietes, the Philosophical Transactions, the Transactions of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, the Royal Irish Academy, Transac tions of the British Association, and other scientific societies. Among his more popular works are a " Treatise on the Kaleidoscope," a " Treatise on the Stereoscope," a " Treatise on Optics," " Letters on Natural Magic," " The Martyrs of Science," and " Memoirs of the Life and Writings of Sir Inn Newton." He also recently published " More Worlds than One," in reply to Professor Whewell's "Plurality of Worlds." In J►nuary, 1849, Sir David was elected one of the eight foreign associate members of the Imperial Institute of France, vacant by the death of the celebrated chemist M. Berzelius. Sir David received also the Prussian Order of Merit, founded by Frederick the Great ; and in 1855 the Emperor of France conferred upon him the decoration of an officer of the Legion of Honour. COURT OP COMMON COUNCIL. A special Court of Common Council was held yesterday at Guildhall, the Lord Mayor presiding. Deputy De Jersey called the attention of the court to areport of proceedings at the Metropolitan Board of Works on Friday, and to a statement made by Mr. Doelton on that occasion, to the effect that • leading member of this court had written • letter to Mr. Ellis, a gentleman with whom the Metropolitan Board was represented to be in " tierce antagonism," urging him to take advantage of the pro ceedings in bankruptcy against Mr. Furness to obtain in formation relative to the proceedings of certain members of the board, and alleging that this tad firstly led to the charge that had been made against him (Mr. Doulton). Mr. Mutton had refused to give the name of the writer of the letter, and therefore it could only, under any circum stances, be treated as an anonymous communication ; but he (Deputy De Jersey) did not believe that any such letter as that referred to bad ever been written by any member of this court. Mr. Richardson said be thought the town clerk ought to be instructed to write to Mr. Doul ton and inquire the name of the writer of the letter. Mr. Medwin said it would perhaps save the time of the court if he at once stated that he had written a letter upon the subject referred to to Mr. Ellis, and he was quite prepared to justify tie course he had taken. He would observe, in the first instance, that the letter in question was a strictly private one, and he bad yet to learn that because he was a member of this court he was to be precluded from exprese ing the prirste opinion he entertained upon any question of public importance. He regarded the Metropolitan Board of Works as an incubus preening heavily upon the ratepayers of the metropolis, and he believed that if all the jobberles that had been committed by the board and by individual members of it were to be made known, that it would not be allowed to exist. He was a large ratepayer in the parish of St. James's, and he considered he bad • a perfect right to protect his own interests, and, foaling that the bankruptcy of Mr. Furness offered an opportunity for obtaining information relative to the proceedings in which he had been connected with the Metropolitan Board, ha wrote the letter in ques tion, suggesting that when Mr. Furness seine to be ex amined in the Bankruptcy Court, this information should be obtained from him. He thought there could be no doubt that Mr. Furness bad been ruined by the im positions that bad been practised upon him, and be (Mr. Medwin) believed that if all the proceedings of the Metro politan Board in reference to similar matters were to be made public it would not survive for an hour. The Lord Mayor here interposed, and observed that although the discussion might be interesting to some honourable mem bers, it was entirely out of order, as there was no motion before the court, and the subject dropped. Some dis cussion took place on the subject of an alteration in the seal of the Sheriffs' Court, made by order of the judge. Mr. Kerr. That court has, under a recent statute, become the City of London Small Debts Court, and Mr. Kerr has, it appears, authorised the substitution in the seal of the royal arms for those of the City. Thin was looked upon by some members of the Court of Common Council as an un warrantable proceeding, and the matter was referred to • committee for consideration. A claim by Mr. Kerr for • proportion of the fees of the court gave rise to • warm discussion, and was also referred to a committee. Mr. W. Lawley, the chairman of the Local Government and Taxation Committee, brought up • report from that committee, having reference to the proposed annexation of the parishes of Bt. Luke's and Clerkenwell with the East and Wert London Unions. He said the committee had been in communication with the government, and the Earl of Devon, the President of the Poor Law Board,and had ex pressed their views in opposition to the proposed annex ation of portions of the City of Loudon with the districts alluded to, and he believed be might state that the pro posed annexation would be abandoned. (Hear, bear.) At the same time he thought it right to inform the court that the government were determined upon making some and • proposition would probably be brought forward ebia r; the amaivonatice of all the three City unions. Hs did met think they ought to object to this proposition, bat thecae*. make would oontinue their attention to the subject, sad the corporation would, no doubt, readily co-operate with the government in carrying out any scheme that waslikaly to work beneficially. After the transaction of some other business the court adjourned. Ten Ramat[ Act AND RATIL—A largo number of weekly terusis hare bees ranunceed before Yr.

The rank sad file, as well as the ostensible leaders of the CosetitntkmalAssonation, musteredin peat force, as did also elssepsen and Sunday - school teachers connected with the shun* of England. Perhaps theinueof the following circular may bogey account for the peculiar oomporition of the meeting : Manchester. Feb. 8, 1888. —Dear Sir.—May we venture to ark you to attend the town's meeting which has been summoned for Monday. February 10, at 10.30 a.m., by certain members of the Libertines Society and others, with the evident intention of making pelktiesl 'spited, and of misleading the public as to the real fah"( csf the ps of Manchester on the questkis et the ' MAChureh Inablishmena' Not only has the meeting boon summoned with indecent hiwto, but it is most smiselishis to pledge the people of Manchester to any seam el setisalse the report of the royal coin sow sitting, hes been received.—We are, faithfully mial a g ra +. e . T,4Tiobf.rot ', re o rnate Pnit. e agencies T.."o,t: fa it rther IMMltilleld that every person entering the Town -hall was presented ea the irt9p with the copy of • bulky pa mphlet =ll to be an authentic report "of e west Demonstration at Hillsborough, October, 30, 1887." The Maros explained that the requisition for the meet. owas only presented to him on Thursday, and he was bliged to call it yesterday (owing to the ball being en gaged), or postpone it foe a month. The Rev. G. W. CONDE" (independent) moved, and Mr. Alderman ROMNEY seconded, the following resolution : " That in view of the gross injustice involved in the este blishmest of the church of England in Ireland, and of the lamentable disaffection now existing in that country, the meeting is of opinion that it is the duty of parliament to give its immediate attention to the subject of the Irish church." The resolution was received with an outburst of dis approval, and the mayor declared that unless more decorum was observed he must have the authors of the disturbance ejected. XT. JACOB BRIGHT, M.P., TOW amid loud cheers and groans, to support the motion. One of the gentlemen who had been conspicuous in front of the platform by their continuous interruptions endeavoured to prevent Mr. B r ight being heard, by making if the hon. member was a citizen of Manchester " and another of the same band in quired "if the amendment should not be put now." The mayor did not appear to think either point required his declaim ; and Mr. Bright proceeded to say—This meeting, like towns' meetings in general, is divided in opinion upon the question which we are met to discuss. I will say at the outset that I meeting where I in the slightest degree interrupted • speliher. (Hear.) I do remember having sometimes claimed the right to reply to • speaker, and I believe that right will be given by the mayor to every gentleman present. (Hear, beer.) I am glad that a great number of persons have come to this meeting in a very earnest spirit in defence of the Irish established church—Omar bear)—because it seems to me that that is a aign that t hat church is at last in danger. (" No, no.") And if the Irish church should come to be in real danger, I should regard it se a favour able sign of the times. (A Voice "Who supports Gari baldi!" To which the warms was promptly given, " The Italians," and cheers.) ~.,A good deal has been said about justice sad honesty. Mr. Touchstone indulged in them expressions, and I think they have been used by another gentleman. ( Hear, hear.) I shall not trouble you much with figures—(hear, hear, and • Voice : " Better not") — but I shall give you two or three figures, because it is very difficult to approach this question without them. (A Voice: "We don't believe in them.") According to the census of 1861 the members of the protestant church in Ireland were in proportion to the whole population of Ire 'sod as one to eight. (Hear, and cries of " False.") lam quoting official figures. (Cheers.) A gentleman asked, amid loud laughter, for the " au thority" for the census returns. Mr. BRIGHT—If I bad nothing more to say than that, I should leave the meeting, believing that I had established the case for the resolution (" Oh, oh," and groans.) Now for another fact. In Ireland there are 2,428 parishes ;of 1,539 of them, or nearly two-thirds of the whole number, each parish contain fewer than 100 mule belonging to the protestant church. (Cries of " Stuff," and, " All that can be explained.") A gentleman says he can explain all that; so can I. (Cheers.) There are 199 of these perishes with out anybody belonging to the established church. (" Oh, oh," greens, and cries of "Authority.") I think it was the Rev. Dr. Garrett who told us that when money wee re witted to the poor catholic)" of Ireland—(cries of "Romeo catholic")--W the poor Roman catholic* of Ireland, that money wu entrusted to the ;protestant clergyman. Now, if that be so—(a voice, "It Is in nine case* out of ten ")—I should like Dr. Garrett to tell me how the people living in them 199 parishes where there unlessar no protestant congregations get that money, he admits, ea t the same time, that each of these parishes bas its clergyman devouring the living and performing no duty. (Hear and cheers, followed by counter cries of " Broad church," and " Time.") One of the *peaces who preceded me spoke of this property which is now consumed by the protestant Irish church as if it was inalienable in the sense in which we consider private property to be in alienable. (Orion of "So it is," " Speak the truth," and interruption.) I don't know whether that gentleman is aware—but if not, he is at lead very ignorant of the ques tion he has undertaken to discuss—that within the life time of most of us now in this room the government has dealt once with that property. (Heir, hear, and cries of " More shame.") It has taken away from one, and it has given to another. (Hear, hear.) The government has done that with respect to that property which it never does and never will do with respect to private property, (Hear, hear, snd renewed calls of ' Time.") I am af rai d some of those gentlemen are anxious be get rid of me. (" Hear, bear," and • voice, " Next election.") lam glad we have got a meeting here this morning, presided over by the Mayor. I believe, as Dr. Garrett says, it will be en example to many other places, and that results advan tageous to the country, and not disadvantageous , will flow from this meeting. (HIM, hear.) If the majority of the people of the United Kingdom had their will, this church would cease to be • political institution. (" No, no," cheers, and groans.) N obo dy present—not even those who have addressed us in defence of it—will nudatain that any thing bat a minority of the Irish people supports this insti tution. (Hear.) I doubt if anybody present would main tain that it got any support from Scotland. (Hear, bear.) Scotland has resisted any interference with her religion. On every occasion when the government of this chutney has tried unjustly to interfere, it has happily been met by the strongest and most successful resistance. (Cheers, and • voice, "Itis • protestant country.") And lam prepared to say that it will be scarcely possible throughout the length and breadth of England to get up meetings in the evening, when everybody can attend — (hear, hear)—where the Irish church es • political institu tion would not be condemned. (Renewed uproar calls of " Time," and " Give us something about the broad church.") The associations of that country sad that church—(Time)--with the dark and tragic history of Ire land, is in itself • reason why, before you can achieve the pacification of that country, that church must be abo lished. (Renewed disturbance, and calls of " Time.") The Maros—To will not allow Mr. Bright to speak. He has not spoken anything like ten minutes yet. ("Oh, oh," and groans.) Every speaker shall have ten minutes to speak. The longer yon interrupt him, the longer he will lo before you. (A voice :" We have timed him here, fourteen minutes.") Mr. Below oontinned—l will address myself for one moment to what I believe ) source of the opposition to this resolution. (Hear, When I do so under felts to say that except for the catholic.' who may be present—('' Boman ca th olic' ")—Roman catholic' It you please, the whole of us in this room have one object sad me desire. (" No, so.") The supporters of the estab lished church of Ireland, if I understand their position, it because they hope it will make protestant" import mimeks catholic', and make it easier to govern that essatry. The supporters of the amendment are is the mate close under me and in the middle el the mes ee ig . (Rear, beer.) I would like to ask Shamir's whatever their faith may be in anything, stria much lea than religious matters,—what ever their faith may be, however true or however err*. neown—l would like to ark them whether we have not 1100Vokei heneramble pride and the commonest self-respect to jlii to disk opinions except by force.

The interrupden 2 Bright was now so loudly per. misted in, that he reswilmi his seat. Tbe Rev.

Mr. Collins eald this wee an adjourned one in which the defendant was charged with obtaining money by false pre tenets. The proescotrix was the widow of a captain in the navy, living at Penge, and about • year and • half ago she came into the possession of some little property. About that time Mr. France, her solicitor, died, and the defendant then went to her and representing himself to be an attorneL p o r f ad No. 6, Smith-ppm, Gray's-inn, said he should be to conduct her bonnets. This was to, and he since received from her altogether ru e t d 1,0601., of which be had disbursed on her account only something like 3201. He carried on her business in this way until September, 1867, when th e pee him • cheque for 1001. in payment of his costs as • solicitor. He believed the defence on the last occasion was that Mr. Barclay never held himself out to be a soli citor ; that he was articled to • gentleman named Swan, and not having paned his examination, simply acted as her friend. On this point he had riondusive evidence in the shape of • declare/don, written and signed by the de fendant, in reference to a sem of 650/. raised on mortgage by Mrs. Feed from Mr. Devonshire, solicitor, Old Jewry, and in which he described himself as " David Barclay, of 6, South-square, Gray's-inn, gentleman," and stated that he had been instructed and had acted no solicitor on behalf of Mrs. Charlotte Carry Feed, of No. 4, Queen Adelaide-oottages, lathe county of Surrey ." That settled the question whether be had acted as solicitor to Mrs. Feed, and he had other evidence to the same effect. Other charges were then brought against the prisoner, and the case was adjourned till Friday. A short discussion took place as to the amount of bail to be given for the defendant's reappearance, and ultimately Sir Robert Carden agreed to accept two sureties; in 500 L each, with 24 hours' notice to the presseution. BOW-STREET. Marla Hyatt Sophia Spate, his wife, Richard Urwin, and Alfred Johnson, were brought up on remand on the charge of receiving a number of stolen articles from Liverpool. Mr. Pater defended the prisoners Sophie Hyatt and Richard Urwin. Some additional evidence having been given, Mr. Vaughan said it was evident that Mrs. Hyatt was sating under her husband's dictation, and she mint be dis charged. Mr. Pater then contended that there was no direct evi dence of Urwin's actual receipt of the goods. Mr. Vaughan said it would be • question for the jury whether all the men were not acquainted with the contents and meaning of the letter and invoice ; and if so, whether there was not • joint receiving by them all. It was not a pure question of law, but a mixed question of law and fact, and he should not withdrew it from a jury. Mr. Pater then applied for bail for Urwin. Mr. Vaughan, after some deliberation, resolved to se , rept substantial bail for Urwin, but refu sed bail for John , son, who, when apprehended, had in his pocket a w atc h with the bow broken away, and supposed to be stolen. The three men were then remanded. CLERKENWELL William Ling, described as • medical student at Middle sex Hospital, and 21 years of age, was charged before Mr. Cooke with wilfully damaging • show board to the extent of 12/., the property of Mr. Thomas Smith, advertising agent, of 42, Tavistock-street, Covent-garden. Richard Prior said about half-past one on Sunday morning he was near the King's-cross Railway Station, peaking to • constable, when he saw the defendant, in company with another gentleman, tearing the canvas produced down from the board. It was placed opposite to the station at King's-cross. Police-constable Robert Solly, 105 Y, said—l was with the last witness at half-past one on Sunday morning when I heard • noise as of something being violently torn. I turned round, and saw the defendant with another gentle man dragging this piece of canvas along the road. They had dragged it about twelve yards when I took him into custody. The other man ran across the road and joined six or seven more gentlemen who appeared to be waiting for him. I could not identify him. The piece torn off is about twelve yards long. Mr. G. Webb said—l am the manager of the streets' station advertisement department to Mr. Smith. I have inspected the damaged bosrd this morning. Mr. Smith pays a rental for the place where these boards are placed of 601. per annum ' and is rated at 101. The damage done to th e hosed is at least 121. ; the canvas nod gold originally coat 201. The cost of the gold alone is 41. 10s., as most of the letters are • foot long. The board itself is 20 feet by 20 feet, and the materials are made specially for Mr. Smith. We have experienced great losses by our adver tise:noon being destroyed by mischievous persons, espe cially at this station. The adverriaement was one from Messrs. Moses and Son, and would coat 20/. to replace. Mr. Cooke said he would remand the defendant for a week, but accept bail for him in the sum of nt. Xoei; •. • • -- imalPSes - 1 Otber E.

In._ There has been a fair business doing in wool, and thew is more steadiness in the prices of all the better class.es of wool. A considerable consumption and bareness of stocks are the primary cause. The worsted yarn branch is still rather more active than of late. Spinners firmly maintain their quotations of last week, and some arc even trying to obtain an advance, though not with general success. The business doing, however. is confined to the purchasers of small lots for abroad. The tone of the piece market is more cheerful, and manufacturers report that they have received more orders. Although late quotations are rather more easily obtained, it is difficult to establish an advance; indeed, the effort to realise an advance tends, is many cams, to check business. Cotton warps continue to advance, and this &Lobes an adverse influence. CATTLE.—LIVERPOOL, FEB. 10.—The supply of unek at market was larger than on Monday last.

THZ RIGHTS or GRAVE OWNERS IN A CEMETERY. —Yesterday an adjourned investigation took place at the limit* petty sessions, before Mr. W. P. Bodkin, J.P., l a i n i l ColonelJeakes, J.P., arising out of an assau lt alle g ed to have bean committed in the St. Pancnu Cemetery at Finable, by an officer in carrying out the regulations of the Burial Board, which involved a question of great public importance as to the rights of purchasers of private graves in public cemeteries. Mr. W. D. Cooper solicitor to the parish of St. Pancras appeared on behalf of the Burial Board, and Mr. Ricketts represented the complain ing parties. The alleged assault arose oat of the following circumstances:—For some time past very considerable dis satisfaction has prevailed, and malpractices had been brought to the knowledge of the Burial Board on the part of certain jobbing gardeners in the vicinity of the cemetery, some of whom had even the impudence, with • view to deceive grave owners, to print handbills stating that they were gardeners to the cemetery "by appoietment of the Burial Board." They took great liberties, assumed the right to go in and out of the cemetery, and interfere in the planting of graves just as they thought proper, setting all orders and regula tions at defiance. The misconduct of one man in particular named Harris had been several times reported to the board. In order to put an end to this, the board appeintal two gardeners ard also • superintendent, who was himself I a professional gardener ; erected a green-house at Gond derable expense, and resolved for the future to carry out I the planting of private graves themselves through their offitie . r . l. einuthtehemontherofofthievtober last • printed notice private grave that for the CuWouch would be the ease, and that any renewed I contracts for planting graves must be made with the board , through its clerk or superintendent, as for the future I jobbing gardeners would not be permitted to enter the cemetery for that purpose, unless with the special sanction of the board. In defiance of these regulations, about a fortnight or three weeks back Harris, one of the jobbing gardeners referred to, sent his sou, about 18 or 19 years of age, into the cemetery, who commenced digging the surface of a private grave purchased for the interment of a Mr. Rowbotham, whose widow had had one of the notices posted to her last October. Ashby, the head gardener, who was on duty at the time, warned him (se he admitted) that be was in fringing the regulations of the board, and ordered him off the grave. On his refusal Ashby removed hi m as be alleged in doing so tore his coat , a vary one. He went out of the cemetery, but subseque n t y returned, a ccompanied by his mother, who, after indulging in vo lumes of shunt, took the spade ou t of her son's bend, and commenced digging the grave herself, and on Ashby advancing to remove her, held it up in a threatening manner. She as well as her son were gain removed, and legal proceedings were threatened. Th a e circumstance was reported to the board, and they approved of the course a dopted, and gave orders to defend Ashby in case any steps were taken. Summonses were taken out for the assault, and at the first hearing yesterday week what purported to be an order from Mrs. Robotbam to Harris to keep up her husband's grace was produced on part of complainants. On this the bench adjourned the case to look into the law as to the probable rights of owners of private graves, and also for the production of the deed of groat BIRTHS,MAMMAS, AND DE ATH& under which graves are purchased in the cemetery. The grant was produced, and it gave the exclusive use af BIRTH& ....s 31rs the piece of ground purchased in perpetuity, with the pro.
