POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CAPTURE OF A DEALER 1N COUNTERFEIT COIN. —William Thompson, described as a costermonger, was charged, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with having in his possession a counterfeit sovereign, six counter feit crowns, and a counterfeit florin, knowing the same to be counterfeit, with intent to circulate the same. Mr. James Brannan, agent to the Mint, and em ployed to trace out offenders against the currency, said—Yesterday afternoon, while in a shop in Dud ley-street, with Sergeants Ackrill and Matthews of the F division, and Police-constable Bran nan, Cr division, Sergeant Ackrill called my attention to the prisoner, who Sri►s goicg along Dudley -street. We followed the prisoner, and he was seized by two of the officers, and, after considerable resistance, Ackrill took from his band a counterfeit crown piece wrapped in paper. I told the prisoner my name was Brannan, and that he was suspected of being in possession of counterfeit coin, and that I believed the crown piece taken from him to be counterfeit. The prisoner then said, " I know it is, but you will have to prove I in tended to circulate it." I told the prisoner that from his remark he seemed to have a practical knowledge of his calling, and he was then taken to Bow-street police-station, and on his being searched there Sergeant Ackrill found five other crown pieces, which, as well as the one taken from the prisoner's hand, were all counterfeit, and also a counterfeit sovereign and a counterfeit florin. The prisoner refused his name and address, but knowing where he resided I went with Sergeant Ackrill to 160, Albany-street, Regent -park, and in a room, at the top of the house in which the prisoner lived, amongst some books, a counterfeit shilling was found by Sergeant Ackrill, and also some articles of theatrical costume, which belong to the prisoner's master, Mr. Nathan, costumier, of Tichbourne-street, and which will hereafter form the subject of another charge, they having been taken from Mr. Nathan's premises. The coins, wish to state, found on the prisoner, had undergone an operation called " slumming," that is, they have been rubbed over with a composition made of lamp black and grease, and which has the effect of mak ing the coins appear as if they had been some time in circulation. Sergeant Matthews, 6 F, having produced several articles of theatrical costume found at the prisoner's lodging, and Sergeant Ackrill, 15 F, after giving similar evilonce to Mr. Brannan, The prisoner said that while iu a shop in White Lion-street the coins were put into his pocket with out his knowledge. Mr. Tyrwhitt—l shall remand.the prisoner, and I hope the Mint• authorities will go on with the case. MARK.ETS.—(This Day.) COLONIAL. SUGAR.—Thore is still a good inquiry for floating car goes.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLEMENTAL ACT. This bill was committed and pasted. THE PROMISSORY OATHS BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. - RITUALISM. In answer te 'Esrl SIIAPITSBUIt; The Earl of MALMESBURY said that the report of • the Royal Commiss i on on Ritualism had been pri•aer.ted to her islajosty, and th,t he would answer his lordship's question in a day or two. .TLIE irasu cp,unur'. • Tho Earl of DE it Y said that he was (yu • •le aware that. If he were to ent e r i n t o any o the Resoluti ons w hi c h were now before the !louse of co f minons he would be out of order. But before the Easter.ess there was a great question brought forward w hich he might advert to. There wore three' resolutions which were to be pro posed—the first, the expediency of disestablishing. the Irish Cno new hurch ; 2ndly, that r ppoiutments should be made with regard t o that Church and 3rdly, that an address should be sub m itt e d t o the Crown e'; that its patronage as to the great dignitaries o f th e Church should be placed at the disposal of the Houle of C(tha earl then adverted to the course puin-niedns. Tho noble by a end ninent person in the House of Commons, and c by to the enunciation of opinion which had b een n earl opposite (Earl Russell) as to the position oyfthheenfoln)sir Church, and stated th a t th e v i ews of the nob'eo:ro s l less than n t changed from time to ti me , an d s i nce he left than four changes had come over him. Thequestion was on e of the most important, it was w h ether or not the S. t a should counect itself with th e re li g i ous education of tll: country, but the noble earl had said that he was quite willing that no religion at all should be supported. The question he desired to put to the noble earl was what would be the course pursued in that house if, as he thought it would be, that the. resolutions were passed in the other house, whether it was the inten tion of the nob!o earl to bring this unexpected subject before their lordships' house for their opinion upon it? Lord Derby then "advertedlo the speech of Etrl Russell at S. Jarnea'e Hall. He „thought. that, during this Par liamt;ut, which had but a few months to live, his right hon. friend who was at the head of the GoVernment and who certainly had not anything to do with this pre sent Parliament, would not through any factious oppo sition resign their offices until they had the opinion of a more extended constituency than that whic‘a et present existed. Ile again adverted to the conduct of Earl Russell in 1835 when Lord Melbourne iutroduced a bill as to the question of tithes, and he said that ho was quite prepared to imagine that he would give • Mr. Gladstone the same advice as to his course as the ono he himself adopted in that year, but there was no parallel between that question, and this was a case in which it would be better to call upon the Crown to act upon Resolutions of the House of Commons in defiance of Acts of Parliament, which could not be done, and in this matter the:noble earl was wrong. He would not impute motives ! but in 1835 the noble earl misted Sir R, Peel from office, and although defeated remained in office, and had the satisfac tion of settling the Tithe question, and those who opposed had for 33 years the pleasure of remaining unable to do anything in the matter, which the noble earl himself had opposed. He hoped that during the short time that Parliament should last that there should not be the introduction of a bill which, in stead of promoting concord, would introduce discord andirreligious rancour and animosity, and he trusted there would not be the formation of a new Ministry founded upon the rejection of a measure upon which tho two Houses of Parliament must be divided. Earl RUSSELL • said that he thought the course pursued by the noble Earl was somewhat extraordinary. Ho said 'that he would not bring forward the Resolutions, but that ho would discuss the effect of those Resolutions. If a member of the House of Commons did so, he would be quite in order, but in this house, while the debate was going on in the other house it was quite unusual. For himself he must say that his motive was that he wished to see the Union of Ireland with England become a complete combination, and that was what, in his political career, he had always sought to effect. (LEFT SPEAKING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS—THIS EVENING The SPEAKER took the Chair at 4 o'clock. CUSTOM HOUSE OFFICERS. . ln reply to Ur. Ci'LAVES, Mr. S. 800711 said the committee had not yot made any report as to inquiries into the grievances of the Cus tom-house officers. It had been intended to extend the inquiry to the outposts, but ho could not say whoa that inquiry wouldtako place. - • - THE FORTIFICATIONS. In roply .to Mr: O'BEIRNE, Sir J. PAKINUTON said it was quite true that he had nominated a committee to inquire Into the state of the coast defences, and he had done so in- order that the truth might be ascertained with respect to the condition in which the defences were at the present time; as nume rous newspaper at-ides and anonymous communications Stated they were in a very defective condition. The com mittee he had appointed was one above suspicion, and one the members of which were persons of honour and com petency. When the report was made the whole truth would be learned on the matter, as he should place a copy of it on the table of the house. REGISTRATION OF ELECTORS. Sir E. BULLER asked the That Lord of the Treasury when he proposed to introduce the bill for the amend ment of tile law relating to the registration of eloctera in counties and boroughs in England and Wales ? Mr. DISRAELI said he did not know that he WAS under a promise to introduce a bill on the subject men tioned. The Boundary Commission, as far as he know, would deal to a certain extent with the matter. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION WITH INDIA. Mr. D. NICOL asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, in the present unsatisfactory state of telegraphtc communication with the East, steps were being taken to ascertain the soundings between the English Channel and Gibraltar, and along the Mediterranean to Alexandria, as also from entrance of Red Sea to Bombay, for the pur pose of facilitating and encouraging the early establish ment of an independent and more efficient and economical telegraphic communication with India than now exists. Mr. COItRY said that deep sea soundings between Malta and Alexandria is the possession of the Govern ment, so also were they between A len an l B nubeY• There was no difficulty therefore in laying cables; to I idia es far as soundings wore concerned. RIBBONISM IN IRELAND. Mr. EYKYN asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether it was the intention of her Majesty'e G overn ment, in consequence of thO b ar , arous murder that recently took place in the county of Westmeath to apply to Parliament for extension of their powers under the suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act, as 'to enable them to adopt ;spinet Ribbonism and agrarian outrage the same course that had been so successfully adopted for the suppression of Feniau ism in Ireland. The Earl of MAYO said ha did not think the state of the country would justify the Government in extending the suppression of the Habeas Corpul Act to any other offence than Fenianism. FEVER IN THE MAURITIUS. In reply to Mr. WHALLEY, Sir J. PA.KINGTON said the fever, happily, was de er, acing, as was also the mortality , up to the dugs of the latest intelligence. Th ere had been but happily 'seat deal of Hitless very few deaths. Theein grant had affected women and children more than man. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE. Mr. VERNER said ho had heard it rumoured that the debate on the Irish Church was to close by arrangement to-night. Now he wished to know if such was the case what opportunity . would be offered to those who repre sented northern constituencies in Ireland of expressing their opinions on the subject of the Irish Church ? Mr. DISRAELI said there had been some talk on the matter last night, but ha found that the attempt to regu late the debate was a subject of great difficulty. It was wished that a decision should be taken to a distinct issue —(hear,. hear) -and he should offer no obstacle to that being done. But it appeared that several hon. mem bers wished to express their opinions, and therefore it would be for the house to express its view of the matter. Mr, GLADSTONE said there was no desire to unneces sarily proleog the debate on his side of the house, because, as far as the specific question was concerned, it had been practically and thoroughly debated. THE IRISH CHURCH. The adjourned debate on the resolutions submitted by Mr. Gladstone was resumed by Colonel BARTTELOT denying that the great mass of the Irish people were discontented with the state of the Established Church as it at present existed in Ireland. The agitation was got up by others from interested motives rather than from any other circurnstanca. Ho contended that the quietness of the north part of Ire land, which had remained loyal, whilst Fenianism was rampant in the south, was solely to be attributed to the existence of the influeuce of the Established Church. The great panacea for the pacification of Ireland wculd be the passing for her laws as liberal as those enacted for other parts of Great Britain, Lie hoped the great Conservative party would to a man vote against the resolution proposed by the hon. gentleman opposite. Mr. BUXTON said he really had t) offer his sympathy .to the right bon.'gentleman the First Lord of the Trea sury in his being compelled to march through Coventry with such a ragged regiment of reasons as those paraded by his supporters. (Laughter.) The house had been also inun dated with the Lord Plunkett argument and others ahiut the coronat:ou tatli, but the only one that ho had hoard that had the smallest show of respectability about it was that the precedent set in Ireland would certainly result in the - same course being followed with regard to &gland. In answer to that, he bad only to say that the course pursued with respect to the Established Church in Ireland was dictated solely by justice. (Hear, bear.) (LEFT SPEAKING.) HOUSE Or COMMONS—LAST EVENING. THE IRISH CHURCH. (Continued from our Third Edition of last evening.) Sir F. HEYGATE moved, as an amendment to the first resolution, the following—" That so long as the Union betwoen Great Britain and Ireland continues to exi t, it is just and consistent that the principle of the Established Church should be maintained in Ireland, and its endow ment on a scale suitable to the wants of the population." Mr. HORSMAN, after remarking that na one yet had ventured to defen4 the Well Church as having done its 4:111P duty as an E s t a bli s h ment, defended the L'beral party from the chargelhat they had neglected the question when in office, and were now precipitately intruding it for personal objects. It was the obstinacy of the Conservative Opposi tion which had prevented the settlement of this and other kindred questions, and he maintained that it bad been first raised this session by Lord Mayo's speech, sug gesting "levelling-up." He entered, too, at length into the dispute between Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Hardy, and provoking • frequent contradictions from Mr. Hardy, vindicated Mr. Gladstone from the charge of sudden and unexpected change of opinion, and by numerous quotations from newspapers and leading articles showed that he was understood in 1865 to have pronounced against tho Irish Church. Ho confessed that at that time disestablishment seemed unlikely evcr to be proposed by a Liberal Minister, but the question had come rapidly to tho front, and for this the Conservative party were chiefly responsible by the fundamental change they ha I sanctioned last year. Neverth , less, had not the Go vernment challenged them to it by their inadequate Irish programme and theirpolicy of general endowment, he should have deprecated any sudden revival of the question. But now it had become necessary that the Liberal party should affirm their counter policy of universal diseudowasent and disestablishrnent, and for chat purpose the three resolutions must be pressed bud carried. To another accusation brought against the Lib,ral party, that they were only allXioll4 to turn out the Government, Mr. Horstnan repli, d in a vein of sarcastic banter by assuring the Ministry that their opponents were clear that they were best pro moting disestablishment bykeepiug them in office. Of nine members of the Cabinet, eight w,,re understood to be iu favour of disestablishment, an I though the ninth—Mr. .11.irdy—obstinately refused to bring his mind to it—the disestablishment of the Ministry w..s a more important consideration with him —on that point he had no differ ences with any of his colleagues. The debate was closed for the night by Lord JOHN MANNERS, who, after a few remarks in reply to Mr. Horstnan, denying Particularly that disestablishment had ever been proposed' by a Liberal Minister, and pledging the Government to retire from office the moment they saw that course would be most beneficial to .the Established Church, went on to discuss at some length the language and objects of tho first resolution. The disestablishment• of the Church of Ireland was not needed for the peace and prosperity of the country, and for no purpue, in fact, but the reunion of the Liberal party. Ile showed the difficulty of applying disestablishment to all part of Ireland, dilated on the magnitude and novelty of the resolution involved, and pointed out that exactly the same principles might be applied with greater force to the case of England. The real issue to be submitted to :he country was, not the Irish . Church, but the separation of Church and State. The adjournment of the debate was moved by Colonel BARTTELOT, and ou this question there was a very sharp conversation. Mr. GintysTosE expressed a hope that as this, his first resolution, had been practically debated for four days, the division would be taken on it to-night. Mr. DISRAELI replied that the Government attached the greatest weight to this first resolution, though the second and third involved important legal and constitu tional difficulties. Being anxious, therefore, that it should receive the fullest discussion, and that the real principle and consequences of Mr. Gladstone's new Irish policy should be placed unmistakably before the country, he de clined to commit himself to any understanding to close the debate to-night. Mr. AYIITON reminded the Premier of the numerous important bills which remained to be discussed, and pressed him not to prolong a hopeless resistance after tho house had virtually pronounced it 3 opinion by so large a majority. Mr. DISRAELI denied that the last division had been taken on the same issue as was presented by the reso- ution. Mr. WHITBREAD was of opinion that, considering the press of other business, it might be the duty of the house to insist on the debate being closed to-ni g ht, b ut Sir G. Bowyer, Mr. Whalley, Mr. Ne w d egate, Mr. No vill-Grenville, and Sir John Hay all protested against this. Mr. GLADSTONE wound up the conversation by au intimation that if greater spirit and novelty were not im ported into the debate to-night, and if there was a st rong feeling against prolonging it, ho should be i n f avour of pressing for a division. The debate was then adjourned. Some other business was disposed of, and the house ad journed at ono o'clock. THE FENLIN TRIALS. (Continued frs:n our First Edition) In cross-examination by Ernest Jones the wit ness was severely tested as to his knowledge of Burke in America. Did not know when he was promoted, or under what General he served. The first time he saw Burke in Liverpaol was in April or May, 1866. It was about the middle or latter part of January, 1867, that Burke said he had been sent from Stephens. Burke and Doran. were the first against whom he had given evidence. C Juld not say against how many he had given evidence. Only two had been acquitted. II id received nothing but brard and clothing. Expected to receive a good deal, for he hal done the country a great deal of good. H►d said in Ireland that he expected to re ceive s mie thousands. Was receiving Fenian pay during the time he was giving information. To Mr. Peter—Saw Shaw first at Austin Gib bon's house in Queen Anne-street, Liverpool. 'Wit ness remained in Liverpool from April, 1866, to February, 1857. Could not say that he had stated, when before the magistrate, that Shaw had re ceived 30s. to take Win to Ireland. To the Solicitor-General—Had not sworn in any Fenians since he gave information to the police. Burke remained standing during the whole of the examination of this witness, and wrot' down every answer that affected the case against himself.

At the first attempt the fl ►g fell to a capital start, the lot being stretched in a line across the course, Formosa showing slightly in front, closely attended by Moslem, Rusicrucian, Green Sleeve, and the Frenchman, Vale Royal, St. Ronan, Ironmaster, and Harvester next. They ran thus with little variation to the Bushes, when Formosa and Moslem drew away together, and, alter a splendid finigh . made a dead heat of it, St. Ronan being third, about a couple of lengths from the dead heaters. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) (From our own Correspondent.) NEWMARKET, Tuesday. My selection for the Two Thousand has, to my surprise, only run a dead heat. The race has been established for fifty-nine years, and a similar circumstance never took place before. Moslem has walked over, and the stakes divided, which leaves the One Thousand Guineas at the mercy of Formosa. Moslem is an improving horse and is well worth backing for a place for the Derby.

A curious attempt is made to secure perspicuity by de ignatiug the principal a "person" and the agent a "party." PROPOSAL TO A30L1.2-1 TRE OiiICE OF PATI(SEI CONSTABLE.—Ocia of the branches of the North Riding Chamber of Agriculture has held a discussion upon the use lessness of parish consutbles. Although it was now some years since the Rural Police Act was passed and put in operation, parish constables still continued to exist, CAUS - Iug considerable expense for so purpose. It was stated that their cost was .£l.OO a year to the Scarborough Uuion, which was money paid for nothing at all. The office was also vexatious, and some instances were given where in eases of robbery the parochial.constables had arres ted the offender and next day handed him o ver to the rural police, but no allowance was made for the expense incurred. It was also held that, as taxes iu the rural districts were yearly increasing, every effort ought to be made to keep down useless expenditure. A resolution declaring the longer appointment of parish constables useless, the fees paid in consequence a waste of ratepa ointment, yers' money, and the appo was car the desirability a abuiishing ried, fY ~ ~Y~. •r i ‘';3; - HANDICAP OF 20 SOVS.
