This bill was committed and passed. THAMES EMBANKMENT AND THAMES Di- PROVEMENT BILL. This bill was committed and passed. THE CHURCH IN IRELAND BILL. The Earl of CARNARVON resumed the debate on the amendment as tJ the second reeling of this bill. Ho said that he must express his regret that this bill should corns before the house at all. He did not int md to enter into any recrimination Lke that which occupied the greater portioie of last night. But ho muse p:otest against any thing like party feeling in the mater, and regretted that benefits with regard to Ireland should be mixed up with party questions. He thought the po,itioa this bill would occupy must cripple the organisati in of the Irish Church. Ile contended that the bill intended the disestablishment of the Irish Church, and it was on that ground that he op p )sed the bill. It could not bet be admitted that Ireland was in a disaffec!ed state, and it was urged that this bill was to bo the great panacea for all evils. Ireland, although there had been seventy years of pain-tine:ital.y government was still in any great die turbance likely to be d'saffect ed iu this couutry. On various occasions it was hoped that Ireland would be re conciled t e this country—at the accession of Vt.! Sove leign, and on many occasions when English justice and munificence wore exorcised, but it was not so He had listened attentively to all the objections that bad been used. To some he objected, of others he approved ; but he must say that parliamentary securities are of little value when once the power of practical government is reversed. When once the Church of Ireland was disestablished it would cause great hardship amongst the greater portion of the population of Ireland, and thus alienate that portion of the population who had been so generously loyal to this country. He heard, too, that the ultramuntane feeling was more preva lent than ever in this country. This feeling was not favourable to civil government—(hear, hear)—nor calcu lated to advance it. This was the point that struck him during the debate. It was their duty to seriously consider the place which the bill occupied. He had looked at the question itself, and the position in which it was now placed. The position was made greater in a much greater degree by the course which had been adopted by Her Majosty's,Govern meat. (Hear.) He could not forget that at the return of the Earl of Da - by as Minister of the Crown that there was a promise. (Hear.) It was a Conservative promise, and the question of the Irish Church was to stand in the van. Soon after that promise was given his noble friend the Secretary for Ireland male a speech, in which he intimated in plain language that it was the intention of her Majesty's Government to endow a Catholic university —(hear, hear.)—but a university which should be under no public control. (Hear, hear.) Neither party w2s satisfied. It did not satisfy the Roman Catholics, and the Irish Protestants viewed it with dismay. The noble lord hal termed this religious equality, or a process of levelling up. This did not suit any party. But this was not all—there was a deputa tion which provided for the increase of the Regium J)onum, and that no further assistance should be given to the Roman Catholics. The answer to this was most satisfactory. The present cry was one which was justified only by the direst political necessities. If there was one thing that he condemned her Majesty's Goverment for, it was the course that it had taken with regard to the buoying up of the Irish Church. There was nothing more wanton than this conduct• The English Church would obtain greater power in the hearts of the people, while on the other hand the Irish Church would be in quite a different position. The noble oarl who introduced the second reading of the bill was probably not aware of the importance of the ques tion. He did not know that the House of Commons had passed an act which in the West Indies disesta blished every right that the Church of England had. In the West Indies they had a Church which, when this measure came into operation, would bo much worse off than the Church of Leland. With these views he could not take upon himself the responsitility of voting for the rejection of the bill. Lord REDESDALE pronounced the bill an act of sacri lege ; and contended that the Sovereign, who conscien tiously objected to it, would be justified in alleging the Coronation Oath as a reason for refusing to accept the ad vice of any Minister to sanction the disestablishment of the Protestant Church In Ireland. The Duke of MARLBOROUGH taunted Lord Carnar von with never having lost an opportunity since he se ceded from the Government of attacking and bespattering his former colleagues with political dirt. He denied that Ministers had ever proposed to endow the Roman Catholic University, as their scheme contemplated merely the pro vision of certain expenses, and not endowment. This question, however, had been taken up as a political cry—a last desperate effort to reunite the scattered fragments of the Liberal party. fro expressed au earnest hope that their lordships would reject a measure which sooner or later must lead to the disestablishment of the Church of England, united as it was iu the most solemn bonds with the Church of Ireland. Lord DUITERIN declared that ho was connected with the most Protestant province in Ireland, and yielding to no one in attachment to the Protestant Church, yet he could with an unfaltering judgment give his vote for the bill. The Archbishop of YORK opposed the measure from a purely ecclesiastical point of view. Lord RoMILLY supported the bill. The Archbishop of AltillAGll said he was sure that their lordships would never assent to such a measure until they had that which they had not now, some infor mation respecting the disposal of the funds to be derived from the process of confiscation. The Established Church in Ireland was felt by all classes of Protestants to be the bulwark of their civil and religious liberties. Its mainte nance was guaranteed by the Act of Union ; its spiritual influence was never more widely and beneficially felt than at present ; and as the fruits of its teaching, the Pro testants of Ireland were the most enterprising and indus trious portion of the community, and in agitated periods had always been conspicuous in their loyalty. In the de gree in which the Protestant Church was depressed would the Roman Catholic Church be raised ; and if this measure was adopted the Queen's supremacy would bo eventually tr_►nsferred to a foreign potentate, and her crown in Ireland w,uld be almost at his disposal. The debate was continued by the Earl of Cork and the Duke of Somerset, who spoke in favour of the bill, and the Duke of Rutland against it. . _ _ The Marquis of SALISBURY comment3d on the fact that the supporters of the bill 131(.1 shown an ostentatious contempt fur it, inasmuch as they had scarcely said a syl lable about the measure itself, but a good deal concerning every other possible question. The framers of the bill might have adopted the usual course, and prepared a bill providing that all persons who accepted benefices in future should have no claim to compensation ; but as they had not taken that course, he concluded that they had the further object of committing their lordships to their larger and ulterior designs. There was no plan of " disendow ment " b3fore the House, and the supporters of the bill were very chary in reference to the subject. Late expe rience had taught him the folly of the "no surrender" policy, which personally ho should have preferred, but the strongest fortress was _of little use when the garrison would not stand to their guns. With regard to the property of the Irish Church, ho trusted their lordships would discard the watchword " spoliation," and inquire for themselves by what right that property could be regarded as belonging to the nation, to be dealt with now as unscrupulous despots and Parliaments might have disposed of it previously. The Earl of lIARROWBY was of opinion that the pass ing of this measure, so far from having any influence in healing the wounds of Ireland, would only have the effect of opening fresh ones. The Bishop of KILLALOE complained of the combi nation which had been formed for the destruction of the Irish Church. Tho State had been unable to ally itself with the Church of the majority in Ireland, and had there fore established the Church of the next largest body, and which institution was identical with that of England. On the motion of the Duke of ARGYLL, the debate was adjourned until Monday. Their lordships then separated. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—YESTERDAT. The SPEAKER took the chair at two o'clock. FOREIGN CATTLE MARL ET BILL. Lord R. MONTAGU moved the house go into com mittee on this bill, the object of which was merely to carry out a policy originated in the clause formally moved by the hon. member for the Tower Hamlets. He argued in support of his motion that the bill would act as a great security against the reintroduction of the cattle plague, and act in every way for the benefit of the consumer. The beneficial effects of slaughtering mint Ils not in a good state of health at the point of debarkation was much to be preferred to allowing the bats to be sent a long journey by rail during which the most serious results would follow. There had been some objection urged against the bill by the importers of foreign cattle, but he thought what they had particularly to deal with was not the effect the bill would have on the foreign trade, but what it would do for the English an , lS,:otch cattle farmers. lie could understand the opposition that was raise I to this bill, as it was a preventive measure in the most extended sense, and even those who did not approve of the measure were compelled to admit that there would be an advan.L t oge of confining the importation of foreign cattle to one small spot, and the bill ought to establish a foreign cattle market at a place down the river. Every facility would be given to the importer and dealer as to the removal and slaughtering, and he thought the measure was one that mould be of the greatest advantage to both importer, dealer, and consumer.

He contended that the bill was altogether unmeaning at the present time. Why should it be pressed forward when the time consumed in its consideration could be much bettor and more advantageously occupied in pass'ng the measures that must bo disposed of prior to the dissolution ? The bill dealt with large interests; and yet there had not been the slightest discussion upon them up to the present. It was introduced on the sth of Dec., read a second time on the 13th of February without debate, and as it re mained uunot:ced for so long a time the natural inference was that it was not to be proceeded with. It was now, however, thought proper to urge the bill forward with extraordinary speed. He objected to the bill, because it interfered to a very great extent with private property, and therefore he submitted his amendment to the motion of the noble lord te the consid .ration of the hoes. The bill proposed to sweep away private property in the most unceremonious manner, and as it in his opinion would work evil rather than goof, he hoped the house would not consent to its proceeding any further that ses sion. He believed it would impose serious restrictions on the foreign cattle trade and lessee its azii3nut ; also that it was nothing more than a gigantic scheme of protection. and one that would increase the price of meat to the con sumer. For these reasons he altogether objected to its provisions, and had move .I his amendinen t, which he hoped would be acceptable to all those who did not wish to in crease the present taxation of the metropolis. He did not think that the bill was that of the Privy Council, be cause it was at variance with their acts ; but he believed it was that of a set of persons who believed the metropo litan cattle market was too good a thing to let the foreigner have a slice. (Hear, hoar, and laughter.) The measure, he believed, was pressed upon the Privy Council by the agri cultural interest, and although its voice was that of Jacob, yet its hand was that of the Esau of Norfolk. (Loud laughter.) He didn't object to small things being done to oblige friends on the eve of a general election, but he did object to free trade principles being interfered with. (Hear, hear.) He thought the farmers friends would betray the farmers as they had been before ; he believed they, the farmers; were an honest sat of people, but they were being used for party purposes. They were being deceived in this matter, and the sooner they had their eyes open the bettor. He thought it an entire delu sion to believe that the collecting of foreign cattle at one spot at Barking would entirely prevent the communication of cattle plague to the metropolitan market, supposing un fortunately it was again to break out ; -and he could not say how much ho was surprised at persons who had the reputation of being well-informed in certain matters could entertain such an impression. The evil that he could see was that it would seriously interfere with the supply of food for a large class of the population, that it was unfair to the railways and to the other markets. They had heard nothing about the management of the new market, and with regard to the corporation of the City of London, but it had been publicly announced to the com mittee that the corporation withdrew from all interference with the bill. That was another of the many difficulties with which the bill was surrounded, difficulties he thought that, to men of practical mind, rendered all legislation at the present moment impossible. For all these considerations he hoped the house would accept his amendment. The discussion was carried on until 7 o'clock, at which hour the sitting was suspended. On the house resuming at nine o'clock, a discussion arose on the subject of telegraphic communication with India on a motion by Lord W. HAY for the production of copies of any correspondence which might have passed between the Secretary of State for India and the local authorities relative to the deep sea line from Bombay to Kurrachee, and the sanctioned lines from Gwadur to Jask, I and from Jask to Bushire._ Sir S. NORTHCOTE, in expressing his readiness to produce the correspondence referred to, said that the Indian Government had determined not to give any assistance in the form of a guarantee to the new line by way of the Red Sea. A discussion ensued, in which Mr. Crawford, Mr. A. Seymour, and Sir H. Rawlinson participated, and ulti mately the motion was withdrawn, on the understanding that the papers should be moved for as an unopposed re turn. Mr. PI M. brought under notice the record publications published under the direction of the Master of the Rolls, and offered some suggestions for making them more ac cessible to the public. The Entail Amendment (gcotland) Bill was read a third time and passed. The Salo of Liquors on Sunday (Ireland) Bill was withdrawn. Several other measures were advanced a stage, and the house adjourned. SPORTING IN fELLIGENCE. STOCKBRIDGE MEETING. FRIDAY.

NEWNLIIIKET.-Our ground is still very hard, and but few horses are in regular work. At Alexandra Park we have, in the Two Year Old Stakes, De Vere, Martyr, Run away, and filly out of Orkousta, but I cannot say any thiim of this Jot. Palace Stakes.—Goodwood has done well lately, and Gomera you have seen out. Alexandra Plate.—Sir Oliver, False Alarm, Moutbar, Sphynx, and Benefactress have all done sufficient work. Welter Cup. —Pirate Chief, Musician, Usurper, and Distaff are all well. Grand Prize.—Laneret, St. Ronan, Nelusko, Speculum, Goodwood, l'riponnier, Vale Royal, and Beauty are our lot. These, 1 think I may safely say, could not be more fit to run. Chelmsford.—Great Bad dew Two Year Old Stakes. Belle of Warwick, Capucine filly, Biche au Buis, Dr Do Jongh, Cyclamen, Troy, and Nutgirl are our lot, and all going o a right. Chelmsford llandi , :ap —Pirate Chief, Distaff, Artesian, Midwife, Novice, Usurper, Court Card, Furious, and D:. Gray are all right. Angus is away, and La Belle Jeanne is hardly fit. I think the best of Joseph Dawson's will will this handicap. Worcester meeting— In the Worcestershire Stakes. Vespasian is very well iadeel, and will about win. Flying Stakes—Sir Oliver and Problem are both well. Worcester Cup—We have only"L eases engage 1, and he goes short, ant I should think will not run. I have noticed during the week the following doing some good gallops on the tan :—Cant3mpt, Casse fete, Miss Have lozk, Leonie, Grimston, Knight Erray., Qui Vive, Riga, Belpliegor, Harebell, Teddiugton horse (5 yrs), i‘Lss Sarah colt (4 yrs), Maid of Masham filly Makeshift colt (3 yrs), Bird-on-th e -Wi ng co lt (3 yrs), slily by Knowsley (3 yrs), Lady Roseberry, Alacduff, Porter's Knot, Perfume, Snowdrop, Purveyor mare, Cavalier, Little Resa, Bene factress, Lady Stanley, Ishmael, Qu on of Darkness, Can non Ball, Lucifer, King Victor, 2.lpenstock, Marmite, Glarnis, Chippenham, Ilippia, Jasper, Director, Ilormione colt, Nya za, Nine Elms, Gloire do Dijon, Nelly Rose, Morning Star, Typhon, and Thor. King Charming, being amiss, has done nothing the last few days. Van Amburgh has art ived at Godding's to be trained. KINGSCLERE.—I have not seen Resicrucian out, and I must advise your subscribers not to back him at present for the St. Leger. I have grave doubts respecting him. His long absence from work makes me think there must bo something wrong, which I am at present unable to fathom. We shall, I believe, have no horses run next week. All our horses, with the exception of Rosi, are in fair work. LAMBOVRNE.—I see that Alexandra Park, Chelmsford, and 'Worcester Meetings take place next week, but I have not seen the programme of Alexandra Park, so I can't say much about it. I see we have Mexico engaged in the Palace Handicap. He is well, and if be should run will take his own part in the race. Wo have Vortigern in the Goodwood Stakes, and he is doing well, but I should think that ho will not do, for he has got quite enough on him. Mayflower is engaged in the Worcester Handicap, and ehe is going on as well as she can do. RICHMOND.—There has been very littlo of importance doing by our horses the last thre3 days, as we have thirty at Newcastle, as well as all our trainers, therefore those left at home aro restricted to their ordinary work. I see they were very successful on the opening day, but out of it the next, as 1 expected. At the Alexandra Park Meet ing I notice Bel Tub in the Palace Handicap, but ho is a moderate horse, though he has done plenty of work of late. In the Cumberland Plate we have nine horses in good work, all doing well, and one or two I shall keep a special eye on for that event. ILsLEit.—At the Alexandra Park Meeting, Dalby, Viri dis, Achievement, Milton, and Orion are engaged in the Grand Prize. Dalby is only taking half-mile canters. Viridis is doing steady mile work, looking and going well. Achievement showed her form at Stockbridge. Milton is fit and well, but not class enough for this event. Orion will therefore be our best. He is daily doing good work. After two canters he has a nice gallop of about one mile and a half, going in rare form, and over this distance it will take a really good horse to beat him, iu my opinion. I think he wilt about win. Feodor is doing good work for the Palace Handicap, and will take his own part. King of the Rovers, First Emperor, Black Jimmy, Arlington, Alabama, and Miss Nellie are in the Two Year Old Stakes, and I have the most fancy for whichever runs of the King of the Rovers or First Emperor. Our horses engaged in the Alexandra Plate, Muswell Hill Stakes, and the Nursery Plate are well. MALTON.—Owing to Newcastle races not being over, all our trainers aro there, which causes but little to be doing here. The horses at hone doing good work are Emma, Lapidist's dam filly, George Osbaldeston, colt by King Osradoc, Di Spanker, colt by Oramond, Amend ment, Dutch Admiral, Skylark, The Spy, Merry and Wise, Fecialis, Booty, Thunder, Kentish Fire, Toison d'Or, Barna Bimbo, and Zapolya. Westwick, War, and Royal Oak are taking things easy at present. TyrlßLEp.—All our horses engaged at Worcester have been away from home, so I can say vary little concerning them. Worcester.—ln the Crown() Handicap, Tremble is engaged, but he is away at Stockbridge, where his form will be your re.tder's best Guide. Grand Stand Plato.— Citron is also away, and the same remark will apply to him. Flying Stakes. —Marshal Ney is from home. Alex andra Park.—ln the Two Year Old Stakes wo have Rid Ribbon and Sagax. The latter will be the best, and I think will run well ; that is all I can say of him at present. Grand Prize.—Moslem is doing sJrne good work daily; I think a mile will suit him very nicely, and ho will ha very bad to beat. WORCESTER SUNNIER MEETING.—AdViCCS from the old city state that the hay is now cleared off the Ham, and that the ground will nut b 3 opened till the races, which take place on Thursday and Friday next, the rain of Sun dAy and Monday last having considerably benefited the going. Mr. Stephenson's two year old colt by Novillo out of Madame Staveley changed hands no fewer than four times after the Selling Sweepstakes at Stockbridge on Thursday and finally became the property of Mr. Brayley, who ap propriately named him Turn Over. Mr. Drewitt's five year old brown colt Gladiator, by Stockwell out of Rouble's dam, was sold after his race at Stockbridge to Mr. Cavaliero for 500 sovereigns. This strong valuable horse was purchased for stud purposes for Hungary. The filly by Folkestone out of Child of the Mist was purchased by Mr. Oliver on Thursday at Newcastle, and goes into George Davison's stable at liambleton. She has since been named Maggie Moor. Mmtux MosAncn.—This horse, the property of Mr Mac kenzie, has lately been suffering severely from influenza, and in consequence of his weak state was destroyed on Saturday last at Ilsley. VAM AMBURGII.— On Saturday last Mr. Fleming's horses were sold at Albert Gate by Messrs. Tattersall, and amongst the lot was this well-known horse, who was sold to Mr. G. Angell for 1,000 guineas.

PATH AGAlN.—There are but few persons in the Uni'ud States but that have either soon or hoard of this celebrated elephant. His many exploits and capricious antics hays been more than once chronicled by the press throughout the length and breadth of the land. It will be remembered that Tippoo got on the rampage while at his winter quarter at Connersville, In diana, last Decemb3r, and made things quite lively in that usually quiet little village for a few hours. His old keeper, Mr. Frank Nash, who had had the care of him for eleven years, relinquished his charge for another field of labour, and Colonel G.,„W. Johnson, an old African traveller, as- Burned his management. Tippoo was apparently very much opposed to the change, and when Colonel John son approached him, a mischievous twinkle of his eye evinced pretty plainly that he meant mischief. Hi s now keeper gave him a sharp word of command, and re ceived in response a blow from the elephant's trunk, which had it struck him fairly would have sent him into the other world without the benefit of clergy. Colonel Johnson was on the alert, however, and avoided the mis chief. And then the contest for the mastery commenced. Tippoo became perfectly frantic, and snapped the stout chains that bound him like whipcords. After much stra tagem, his legs were finally lassoed with heavy ropes, and, after a five hours' contest, he at length yielded to his superior. Tippoo has boon on his good behaviour over since, and is now as mild-mannered an elephant as ever carried a trunk.—Wilkcs's Spirit of the Times.
