NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING.

WEDNESDAY.

The card this morning promised abundance of racing,
but did not exhibit any of those so-called "certainties" so
delightful to a racing man's eye. In the Oatlands Plate
Saccharometer showed somewhat of his old form by defeat-
ing the field opposed to him, among whom were Merry
Hart, Clarior, and Principal, very easily. He will probably
be a favourite for the Cambridgeshire,

A good looking Trumpeter colt carried off the 2-yr-old
Handicap Sweepstakes very cleverly, and the issue of the
3-yr-old Handicap resulted, after a very fine race, in a dead
heat between Attraction, Lytham, and Gownsman, an ex-
ample of good handicapping not often seen. liesnig, receiv-
ing 71b from Gardevisure,reversed the Stockbridge running,
winning rather easily at last, the mare boltiag in among
the crowd on the badly kept course at the finish. A respect-
able woman was knocked down and a good deal bruised by
Gardevisure, and we trust this accident may direct the at-
tention of the authorities to the way in which the crowd are
permitted to trespass on the course during the running, ac-
tually impeding the view from the judge's chair, and lead-
ing as in this case to what might have been a serious acci-
dent.
There was a second dead heat this afternoon in the race
for the Bedford Stakes between Mirifior, another of the
dreaded French division, and Mr Bowes's lilarinska. The
deciding one was won after a fine set to by the French colt,
and that for the Handicap Sweepstakes by Gownsman.

meter and Vabalathus, and came on with the running to the
rams, where she was beaten—Saccharometer, at the same
time, came to the front, and won in a canter by. half a dozen

Lytham and Confederate next to the cords, where they were
joined by Gownsman—the lot running in close company to
half way down, where The Beadle declined, having Attrac-
tion with a trifling lead, but who was shortly after joined by

next.

bad third.

culty experienced as to who was a traveller, and the legis.
lature had endeavoured to get out of it by the use of the
word bone fide. If this train had gone at ten minutes past
one on the Sunday morning instead of at ten m;nutes to
one in the day then this act of Parliament would have
applied.

Mr. Arnold said there was nothing in the Police Act to
prevent that. It would not have been an offence as this was,
Mr Child remarked the serving between one and four
was merely a statutory provision of this act. This act
pressed very hard upon his client and persons in his posi-
tion. Ile exercised the greatest scrutiny and took every
reasonable precaution and served only the persons that he
believed had passed through and taken tickets, and he
had complied with all that the act of Parliament put upon
him.

Mr Arnold said this was quite clear that five persons out
of the 30 served did not leave the station by rail, and there-
fore were not travellers; yet Mr Fisher had acted with
good faith on the occasion. Supposing a man left his house
in a cab with luggage and stopped at a public house, and
said he was a traveller, and insisted upon being served with
refreshment ?

Mr Child said he would be considered a traveller, and
he himself in the same position should think himself en-
titled to the privileges of one.
Mr Arnold observed a source of conflict would arise
from that; the law would become a dead letter. If a
man in such a case was really a traveller then this law as
applied to large towns like London would become quite an
absurdity. Every innkeeper was bound to supply refresh-
ment either in board or victuals, and hence the name of
licensed. victuallers; but in the present day these did not
seem to be required, but beer and gin. The innkeeper was
to find meat and drink for the wayfarer. The old law had
been carried into the new lioences, and thus it became an
absurdity. It was a wonder that something had not been
adopted by the legislature, and that the law in this case
should remain exactly as it was hundreds of years ago.
There should be a distinction between London public-houses
and country inns.
Mr Child said he quoted his argument to show that the
legislature intended that persons arriving at railway sta-
tions should have the privileges mentioned in this last
clause, and that persons departing front railway stations
should be deemed travellers.

Mr Arnold observed that there was nothing said about
travellers ; it was persons.
Mr Child said, although the word traveller was not used,
still, from the construction of the act, it was clearly the in-
tention of the legislature to apply it to persons arriving at
or departing from railway stations. It pointed to them, and
meant them as travellers.

Mr Arnold—lf the act had used the word " traveller,"
then Mr Child's argument would have appl:t.d to the case
in point.
Mr Child submitted the case he had prepared, and it
having been approved of by Inspector Howard.
Mr Arnold said he should submit it to his colleague, and
Mr Fisher was bound over in £2O to prosecute the case in
the Court of Queen's Bench. It was perfectly understood
that the police would not again interfere till it was decided,
and that Mr Fisher should use the utmost caution en the
occasion of serving,

Mr. Alderman Salomons, M.P., and his

Constituents.

Last evening Mr Alderman Salomons met his constitu-
ents at the Lecture-hall, Greenwich, to render his annual

account of his stewardship. The hall was pretty well filled
but was by means crowded. Dr. Purvis was called to the

chair.

Mr Alderman SALOMONS, who was received with cheers,
said the last session had been called a nothing session—
but he found that,while in 1863, 125 public acts were passed,
in 1864, there 121; while there were 329 private acts
against 238 in 1863. But this led to the question, what

did Parliament meet for ? Parliament did not meet for what

might be called sensation business. Happily for all the

great questions were now settled, and Parliament now met
to improve the laws, and to deal with financial questions.
If they looked to the legislation of late years, they would
find that there had been a constant tendency to the
provtment of the laws of the country and to the ease of the
burdens of the people. Last year they had a surplus re-
venue of two mill ons and a half, and during the session

taxes had been reduced to the amount of three millio:,s and
a half. One great question had arisen during the aessioa,
the Danish question. The session opened under gloomy,
circumstances. They all felt deeply interested in the fate
of Denmark. The German powers were pressing upon it,
and it became a question whether we should nor b, .1)/i6-f.d

by the treaty of 1852 to make common cause with Denmark.

The Government, however, wisely proposed a conference,
and the Danes themselves were responsible for the way in
which that conference ended. The course taken by the
Government was challenged by the opposition,and there was

a great party struggle on the motion of Mr Disraeli " that

he conduct of the Government had lowered the just influ

ence of this country in the councils of Europe, and hereby
diminished the securities for peace." He could not have

brought himself to vote for such a motion as that. (Cheers.)
That was the great question of last session. Every other

question paled before it. They had several other questions
—proposals for reform on a small scale—on all of which he
voted in accordance with his principles. After all, the ques-
tion of reform in Parliament was a question that belonged to
the electors. If they were in earnest in the matter it would
make progress, but it never would make progress if the
people remained equally balanced and divided upon it.
He regretted to find that the civil war across the Atlantic
still continued. He had long thought that the governments
of Europe might interfere, and he thought that they might
now interfere by negotiation—(Cries of " No.")—not inter-
vention. He had been always against intervention. While
the Government had acted on the principle of non-inter-
vention they had upheld the dignity of the country, and
had shown that they were determined to protect our flag,
One species of legislation he had always promoted, and that
was, all that tended to promote the social comfort and well

being of the people. Under this category he included edu.
cation. The education of the children of the poorer classes
had made great progress. In 1859, the number of children
attending the schools which were aided by Government was
461,445, and they had gradually increased, until in 1863 they
were 1,057,426. And now, reverting to another subject, Fthe
subject of trade. In 1861 they had the commercialj treaty
with France. Adverting to that subject led him to remark
that he regretted the observations that had recently been
made in depreciation of the ruler of that country. We had
only to speak of him as regarded his conduct and good faith
towards his allies. The mode in which he conducted the
affairs of France was a matter between him and his
people. The Emperor Napoleon had shown good faith
towards this country, and a great deal of the good feeling
between Englishmen and Frenchmen was owing to the
political conduct of the Emperor. He never met the Em-
peror Alen he was in this country before he became Emperor,
but he was introduced to him while he was President, and
he said to him, 6, When you return you may assure your
countrymen that I never shall forget the asylum I received
in England, and I shall do my best to promote the best un-
derstanding between England and France." Looking back
to'what had taken place in the last five or six years he
thought they might fairly say that the present Parliament
had promoted peace, and it had reduced taxation to the
amount of not less than ten millions a year. They might
ask whether he had done anything himself. Well he might
tell them that the great art in the House of Commons was
not to talk but to hold your tongue. There were plenty of
persons to talk and but few that the house was willing often
to listen to. The house however would always listen to any
member who was thought to have special information on
any particular subject; and there were one or two subjects
to which he had given special attention which he had ven-
tured to bring forward in the house. One was the justice of
Government being required to contribute to the local rates
and taxes in respect to any establishment it might have in
any particular parish. He believed there were many mem-
bers who were now disposed to pay attention to the ques-
tion, and he trusted that next session he should be enabled
tq bring forward with a chance of success a measure which
would put Government establishments on the same footing
as private manufacturing establishments. Another question
which he was desirous of bringing forward was the increas-
ing necessity for better roads and additional bridges in the
metropolis. He could not conceive an> thing more absurd,
more barbarous, or more injurious to the working popula-
tion than that they should be attempting to force the whole
of the traffic of the eastern part of London over one single
bridge. It had a paralysing effect on the population. Now
that the proprietors of Southwark-bridge were inclined to
take a reasonable sum for it, he trusted that some arrange-
ment would be made by the corporation to secure its being
opened to the public. In conclusion, the hon. member said
he was ready to answer any question that might be put to
him, and he trusted that, having had a lease for seven years,
when he came before them, as he probably shortly should,
for a renewal, they would consider that he had been a goch
tenant and was deserving of their confidence.
Mr HOLLAND asked the hon. member if he included
Creek-bridge amongst those he intended to endeavour to
throw open.
Mr Alderman SALOMONS replied that he did.
Mr Rocx then moved—" That this meeting having heard
the statement of Mr Alderman Salomons, hereby records
its appreciation of his services during the past session of
Parliament, and its continued confidence in him as one of
the representatives of the borough."
Mr BASS seconded, and the motion passed with acclama-
tion.
A vote of thanks was then given to Dr. Purvis for his
conduct in the chair, and the meeting separated.
