PURSE ROBBERT.—This morning two men, named Irving and Martin, were plAced at the har on remand, charged with stealing a purse containing a cheque for 9/. and other money, the property of Roderick Mac 100i keazie. From the evidence of the prosecutor, it appeared that a few days ago he was in Charlcz-street, Drury-lane, when the prisoner Martin came up to him and said he was "hard up and starving ;" and taking compassion on him, he took him into a public-house and there gave him some money to purchase food with. Martin left the house, and in a short time returned with a quantity of bread and cheese, which he devoured voraciously. He (prosecutor) then gave him some beer, and after hav ing done so, he quitted the house and proceeded to a barber's shop t•) get shaved, to which place the prisoner Martin followed him. After having been shaved, he took out his purse to pay, when Martin seized hold of it and made off. Prosecutor followed him and over took him at the top of Charles-street, where the prisoner Irving came up, and both prisoners then made their way into a house in the same street. On the arrival of the police the house was entered, and Martin and Irving were found together in a back room. The purse had not been found. Both prisoners were known as constant as-ociates. 1311 9,1 1011 In answer to the charge, the prisoners denied therob bery. Martin said Mackenzie had been treating him the whole of the morning with beer and gin, and that he was s o drunk he did not know what he was about. Mr. Jardine committed both prisoners for trial. BURGLARY.— Thomas Ray was charged with burglariou-ly entering the house of Mr. Miller, No. 4, Tavistock-ro iv, a ealesman in C)vent-garden market. The prosecutor said about 10 minutes to five on the morning of the 2d of June, ho left his house, and after a short absence sent his son home to get a writing desk. On the son of the prosecutor entering the dining room he found the prisoner. The street door was securely fastened when ha left the house. A police-constable proved a former conviction against the prisoner, and said also that he was the associate of thieves of the lowest description. Tise magistrate committed the prigoner for trial. • , et , t so. 4k,tr ,aj tk) ,sUJv OF P ,Feven 4' Chock. MANCHESTER RACES.—(This Day.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAP:I.) SILFORD BOROUGH CUP.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.—(This Evening.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. Earl COWLEY took the oaths and big seat upon his elevakion to an earldom. He was introduced by the Earl of Clarendon. The Duke of NEWCASTLE presented a petition from the civil servants of the Crown employed in the department of the Woods and Forests, praying for an alteration in the system of administering the superan nuation fund. The noble duke al o presented a similar petition from the civil servants of the Crown employed at the General Post-office, and two other public depart ments. The Earl of WINCHELSEA presented a petition from a place in Kent praying for an alteration in the law of marriage. Viscount DUNGANNON presented a petition from Denbi4b, against the abolition of church-rates without an equivalent. SECOND READINGS. On the motion of Lord REDESDALE, the Hereford Cathedral Restoration Bill, and Meriton's and Hagen's Sufferance Wharf Bill were read a second tune. THE PRINCESS ROYAL'S ANNUITY BILL. This bill was brought up from the House of Commons and read a first time. MINISTERS' MONEY. This bill was read a first time. THE MERCHANT SHIPPING ACT. The Earl of ALBEMARLE presented a petition from the ruerehant4, shipowners, and others in terested in the shipping trade of the port of Bristol, complaining cf certain clauses in the Merchant Shipping Act, and praying that the said act may he referred to a select, comnyttee. The noble earl asked her Majesty's Government whether they intended to introduce any measure to meet the require ments :of thii—shipowners, and if not, in what other way they meant to grant relief. The noble earl referred at sorhe length to the act in quiestion, which, instead of being short and concise, was of a totally op posite nature. It occupied upwards of three hundred pages, and contained more than five hundred clauses, consequently it would occupy nearly the whole of the life-time of an ordinary seawall' to become acquainted with the whole of its provisions. The noble earl then referred to the hardships shipowners laboured under, in consequenceof theliability they incurred by loss of life occurring on board ship. The shipowners strongly objected to the Court of Inquiry instituted by the act. They considered this tribunal a very arbitrary one. After a few other observations the noble lord resumed his seat Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said he hail lie_. tened attentirely to the observations of the noble I;rd, and one of the grievances complained of, was the extreme ltngth of the Merchaut Shipping Act. Now, when it was considered that this Act was a consolidation of no less than 128 Acts relating to the ehipping, be did not think that it was surprising that it occupied so large a space. He thought, looking to the whole facts of the case, no consolidation of the law upon any point bad been effected with such consummate ability as the pre sent one. The noble lord having replied to the other observations of the noble earl, said there was no ground whatever for any alteration in the law as it at present house against hon. roctobers' returns, and instanced his owe case, where a person named Fox, a journeyman batter, of Newctstle-under-Lyre, a stranger to bin,, ehar?,eel. him with c , rrupt practieee. th.for tunately m•.m in dziniz snob attacks escaped punishment by t':e louse no Ipublishi libel. In his case he would eadily expend 1,000/ to bring the man to ju6tice, did the law and th., rules of the house permit it. It was t me measures should be taken to prevent the repetition of s ich practicer. The law shoot I make it compulsory on the petitioners to pay all expenses if they had not good gi minds for doing so. He firmly believed that fifty por cent. of the petitions against mem heis were rot genuine, but for the purpose of x , .orting money. (sear, hear.) He asked the Govern ment what COUIB3 they intended to take relative to this question? Mr. G. H. MOORE complained of the manner he had been treated by the House and the press relative to the petition that had been presented against his return. His remarks were principally directed to the honourable member for North Warwickehire (Mr. Spooner), who, it 'w as understood, the hon. member said had used it in debate. He considered the publication had the effect of preju 'ging the case. He proteated against the privilege of the press, and that house being used in these instances to the prejudice of the sitting member. Mr. H. DUNCOMBE referred to the abuse of these petitions. He had known instances where petitions had been withdrawn by the agents without the consent of the petitioning parties. He condemned the present Corrupt Praet , ce.4 Ac`, which he thousht rather tended to the conception of corrupt practices than their preven ti)n. He hoped the Government would do something to get rid of.;the evils complained of. Mr. SPONOER defended himself from the supposition that he would do anything wilfully that might tend to the prejudging of any case. The document he quoted was in the hands of all the members. L- ord PALMERSTON, in reply, said that the Go vernment had made but little progress with the estimates, and there were many measures it was desirable to pass this house in time to enable them being pa , sed in the House of Lords, and he was afraid that at the present moment he could not give a Government day for discussing the question of educa tion, but should the state of public business permit it, he would confer with the right hon. baronet on the ques tion. His lordship then defended himself relative to his statements on a former occasion relative to the question of Brazils. As regarded the production of the correspond ence relative to the slave trade which had been printed in the annual returns on the slave trade, it would be usele3l3 to have them re printed, but he would have them looked out, and fur nish the learned gentleman with the references. With regard to the presentation-of sham petitions his lordship said it would be desirable to prevent it, hut he thought the house ought not to restrict petitioning too much. A petition could .only proceed from an elector or a can didate, and be thought there could not be a greater proof of the falsehocel of the slanders contained in the petitions than their withdrawal. When petitions were pre sented for the urpose of extorting money, he thought if it could be proved, this house would take proper notice of it. After some further remarks, his lordship said that petitions might be presented rightly sod yet withdrawn rightly, from a variety of circum stances l equiring the petition to be lodged within a certain period after the election returns. It was a matter that required consideration with a view to the effectual prevention of the evils complained of. He expressed his satisfaction that the members who would have to try the election petitions wool! be guided only by the evidence that came before them, and not from any remarks they found in the papers, or from what they beard at clubs and other plates. After some remarks from Aft. HILDYARD, Lhrd J. RUSSELL said that he was not so san guine as to believe when he introduced his Corrupt Practices Bill that it would entirely put an end to bribery and corruption, but that it might tend to its decrease. They would soon have to sit on several elec tion petitions, wh3n he hoped it would be found to have had that effect. If it was found deficient of any of its enact ments let it be amended. His lordihip called attention to the eve of Mr. Stonor, whoFe appointment in the colonies under Government was cancelled by the Duke of New cactle from a misconception, and asked for an explana- Mr. LABOUCHERE stated the reply he male on a former occasion to Mr. Stonor, viz , tbat the impression after reading the documents relative to this case was, that be saw no poi manentdisqualification for his entering the public service at home, and his desire to recommend him for ear; hyment. He thought that for the bene fit of Mr. Stonor, and the public service, that as Mr. Stonor had been recalled from a culonial appointment be should not receive a colonial appointment, but a home one, and he h•ed informed that gentleman of it, and also that he should be happy to make that statement in the house, if the question was brought forward. Mr. HORS MAN and Mr. MALINS addressed the braise, expressing their belief that Mr. Stonor had been hardly used, and his error, which had reference to elec tioneering zeal, ought not to stand in the way of his preferment. The motion for adjournment till Monday was then agreed to. SPORTING I VTELLIGENCE. TA.TTERSALIAV—TRIIRSDA Y.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. Triuity Torm, 20th Victoria, 4th June, 1857. This Court will en Saturday the 13th„ Monday, the Yesterday a special general meeting of this com pany was hell at the Paddington Station, to take into consideration certain bills now peindin; in Par liament, as required by the standing orders. Tile Hon. Mr. PONSONBY took the chair, stating that Lord Barrington had resigned the chairman ship of the board, and that the directors had done him the honour to elect him as his successor. Be was happy to add that Lord Barrington had con sented to be their deputy-chairman. A SIIAREHOLDER inquired whether the hon. gentleman bad been previously a d rector of the company ? Mr. SauNDEns ( , he secretary) replied that Mr. Ponsonby was not a director at the last half-yearly meeting, but that he held that position at a former period. The first resolution proposed was to sanction a bill for making a railway from the Torquay branch of the South Devon Railway to or near Dartmouth, to be called the Dartmouth and Torbay Railway, and for other purposes. On this motion being put from the chair, a long discussion took place upon the general question as to the propriety of entering into arrangements with other companies at th 3 risk of involving this company in expenses without any guarantee that their interests would be thereby promoted. The CHAIRMAN replied that the new branch lines to which the bills in question referred said not in volve this company in any liability whatever. The only clauses which immediateiy concerned the Great Western Company were of a permissive cha racter, giving power to the directors to enter into workine , arrangements with the new branches at some future time if it should be thought desirable to do so. Mr. MaraNs begged to be allowed to take this opportunity of asking some explanation respecfng the arrangements between the Great Western Rail way Company and the Weymouth and Channel Islands Steam Navigation Company, as thera was a general impression that those arrangements were calculated to entail a loss ( n this company. Mr. SAUNDERS replied that it was a mistake to suppose that the arrangements were likely to involve the company in any loss. The result up to the present moment, he was happy to say, had been far/othe wise, and lie was quite sure that the agreement in question was one of the most important which the directors had yet entered into for promoting the interests of the company. The motion was then put and carried unani mously ; as were also resolutions al proving hills for making railways between the city of Bristo' and the South Wales Railway, with a steam ferry across the river Severn, in connexion therewith, for the purpose of improving the railway communication between Smith Wales and Bristol, Southampton, and the south-western districts of England ; for the making and maintaining of the Stratford-on-Avon Railway, and for other purposes ; for making a railway from the Llantrissant station of the South Wales Railway to Penrhiwfer, with branches to Glanmychydd and Mynydd Gellyrhaidd ; fer ma'iing a railway from the Llanidloes and New ; town Railway to the town of Machynlleth. The meeting was then made special, to consider and ratify certain agreements entered into with the Bridport Railway Company and the Stratford-on- Avon Railway Company, for working their re spective lines, in pursuance of resolutions of the last half-yearly meeting Gf the company. A resolution upon this subject was proposed and agreed to ; and votes of thanks were passed to the chairman, to the late chairman, to the board of directors, and to Mr. Saunders, the secretary. The meeting then separated. FALL of TEE NEW ROMAN CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL AT PLYMOUTH.—The Roman Catholics in Plymouth have for some time past had in course of erec ion, in a field leading to Eldad, a noble-looking structure, which was to serve them as a cathedral for the new diocese of Plymouth. The building was rapidly progressing to wards completion, and it was expected that it weal-( be ready for consecration on the 4th of August next. That hope was entirely destroyed yesterday (Wednesday), for early in th° afternoon about half of the roof fell in with a tremendous crash, and the building, with its lofty western front standing apart from the roof which con• nects the transept with the chancel of the church, we re re- E-ents the appearance of a ruin. Happily no live= lost. The church was formed with Bide aisles, and front one end to the other the roof, which was an extremely lofty one, was supported by arches which sprang front pillars. These pillars were formed of Bath stone, and the arches springing from them were of brick. The Bath stone proved weak for the weight which it had to Sus tain, and some it split, and thus endangered the whole structure. Before the measures for shoring up could be ma tured, the architec t saw that the buildin g was likely to fal l, and he bad only time to warn the men to leave the building , and then to get away him se lf, w h en the four southern arches of the nave, and the large eastern arch, fell with a tremendous crash, bringing down w ith them the southern clerestory. —Ply mou th, vernal of l'mn yesterday.
