CHURCH RATES.
Lord A. CHURCH ILL gave notice that, in the event
of the Church Kates Abolition Bill passing a
second read-
ing, he should propose an amendment to the first clause,
with respect to authorising churchwa,dens and overseers to
provide for the proper repair and maintenance of the
churches.
THE BUDGET—COURSE OF PROCEEDING.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUBR said it
would no doubt be convenient to the house if he were to
state the cause which he intended to pursue with respect to
the financial propositions of the Government. (Hear, hear.)
He proposed to-night, after the, discussion on the cotton
famine, to move that the house go into a committee of ways
and means, in order to enable him to proceed with his chief
propositions. With regard to railways, if the house con-
sidered that the subject should be discussed, he should
leave it to the committee to determine whether it should be
postponed or not. But he desired to have the bill
on the table with respect to the other propositions in respect
to which he apprehended there would be no great difficulty.
He did not intend to propose any resolution with respect to
carriers. He intended to take the customs and inland re-
venue to-night. If read a eecond time to-night he should
propose to take the committee on Thursday, and he should
then state fully the propositions of the Government with
respect to charities.
Mr. D. GRIFFITH inquired if the right hon. gentleman
would bring on these matters after 11 o'clock to-night?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied
that he should bring them on at whatever hour he could.
(Laughter.) He should also state what was iatended with
respect to charitable legacies in Ireland.
Mr, OVAL POLE inquired if the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer intended to submit any alterations in his plan with
respect to subjecting charitable institutions to the payment
of income tax ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied
that his statement would virtually be in support of the
propositions of the Government. fie should deal with one
to or two minor questions, while, for instance, it would not
Od be well to exempt the Patriotic Fund and the current
175 engagements of trustees as .uggested by the hon. member

3,1 Mr. CLAY intimated that there would be some opposition
raised to compel clubs to take out a licence like hotel-
-. keepers.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was under-
stood to intimate that ample opportunity of discussion
would be afforded,
OPPOSITION TO THE BUDGET.
Sir C. NORTHCOTE gave notice that he intended to
move as an amendment to the financial proposition of the
Government, that the clause in the Customs Inland and
Revenue Bill proposing to charge income-tax on charities
be expunged.
ENGLISH AND IRISH LAW AND EQUITY
COMMISSION.
In reply to Mr. LONGFIELD,
The ATTORNEY •GENERAL replied that the report
of the commissioners would be ready in about a month.
THE COTTON DISTRICTS—MANSION HOUSE
AND CENTRAL COMMITTEE FUNDS.
In reply to Mr. Alderman SALOMONS,
Mr. CUBITT replied that the public continued to send
in their subscriptions to the Mansion-house, and as yet he,
and those with whom he acted—nine in number, whose
names be cited—had not seen the propriety of amalgamat-
ing the two funds. The funds are veriodically audited by
Messrs. Coleman and Co., the well-known accountants.
£lBO,OOO had been distributed, and the balance in hand was
£90,000.
THE CITY AND METROPOLITAN POLICE.
In reply to Col. FRENCH,
Sir G. GREY said the bill would be referred to the Ex-
aminer of Bids on Friday, and would be subsequently re-
ferred to the Standing Orders Committee, and it would re-
port whether or not the rules of the house had been com-
plied with.

THE PARKS.
In reply to Mr. HIBBERT,
Lord PALMERSTON said that at the present moment
the Government did not intend to propose any additional
grant, but if corporate bodies taking the initiative required
aid they could do so by loans, and the Government would
extend to them every reasonable facilities to carry out their
intentions.

1 GRAVEYARD AT CHATHAM.
Mr. DIGBY SEYMOUR asked the noble lord the
Secretary to the Admiralty whether there was any founda-
fion for the rumour referred to in tha recently published
pamphlet entitled " The Dockyards and Private Shipyards
of the Kingdom," to the effect that during the war with
France, the French prisoners of war dying in London and
neighbourhood were buried to the number of several thou.
sands, on St. Mary's Island, Chatham; and that the Ad-
miralty works in progress require the removal of their re-
mains; and that quick lime and other means have been
employed to effect a rapid dissolution of the bodies instead
of providing them with decent sepulture elsewhere.
Lord C. PAGET replied that he had telegraphed to
Chatham for information. One of the authorities had, in
consequence, come up to the Admiralty, and he gathered
fiom him that there was reason to doubt the truth of the
statement.

On the motion of Lord PALMERSTON, it was agreed
that the orders be postponed till after the motion was
disposed of.
COTTON MANUFACTURING DISTRICTS.

Mr. FERRAND then rose to move the followingreso-
lution :—" That, in the opinion of this house, it is the duty
of the Government to take into consideration, without day,
what measures may be necessary to relieve the distress
which prevails in the cotton manufacturing districts, so
that the people may no longer continue unemployed." The
hon. gentleman said. immediately after he had again been
honoured with a seat in that house, he had been
inundated with applications from factory opera-
tives to bring their lamentable condition before the
house. They knew that, through good and evi-
report, he had stood their firm friend. He charged the
cotton masters with being the cause of the pre-
sent famine, by solely relying upon America for
a supply of cotton and neglecting India and other parts of
the world, and only a year or two ago they shut out the
workpeople from their mills and largely exported
the raw material which was now so much lacked. He
deprecated hon. members attempting to shelve the matter
by referring it to a committee up stairs, or a Royal com-
mission, as absurd and futile.

(LEFT SPEAKING.)

The Execution of Brookes for the Acton
Murder (This Day).

This morning Joseph Brookes, aged 27, convicted at the
last session of the Central Criminal Court, underwent the
extreme penalty of the law in front of Newgate, for the
brutal and unprovoked murder of the police-constable
Davey, at Acton.
The crowd was not so numerous as on many former oc-
casions, but it was remarked that a large number of the
Metropolitan Police were present.
Since the wretched man's condemnation he has conducted
himself quietly, but up to the last few moments of his
existence protested that he was not the murderer, and that
it was his brother Isaac who fired the shot, although the
evidence on the trial, and particularly that of Sarah Lake,
to whom the wretched man was engaged, pointed to a very
different conclusion ; for she stated that it was the convict
Joseph that left the house with the gun on the night of the
murder, and that Isaac remained at home. His statements,
have, however, been so contradictory that the officials were
satisfied he was fabricating a number of untruths to screen
himself, and the result of his application to the Secretary of
State for commutation of his sentence was received by him
with much despondence.
He appears to have in early life entered the army, enlist-

ing in the Royal Artillery, and was in the Crimea, India,
and China during the war, but has been twine a deserter,
and such at the time of the murder, the military authorities
being in search of him.

The exhortations of the Reverend Mr. Davis, the ordi-
nary, do not appear to have had much effect upon him,
although he listened attentively, but it may be said to be a
passive attention.

This morning at half-past seven, Mr. Alderman and
Sheriff Lawrence and Mr. Sheriff Jones, with Mr. Under-
sheriff Macrell and Mr. Under-sheriff Ferrer arrived at the
gaol, and at a quarter to eight were introduced by the Rev.
Mr. Davis and Mr, Jonas to the prisoner's cell. He appeared
quite unmoved at his near approaching end, and, in reply
to questions put to him, he replied he had nothing to say.
He was then conducted to the press-room, where, after a
short interval, Calcraft was introduced. He at once arose
and submitted passively to the bracing and pinioning, and
seemed in no way concerned. Some few minutes elapsed
amid a dull monotonous silence, when he was again asked
if he had anything to say, when he replied "Nothing,"
The procession was then formed, the chapel bell tolling,
and the culprit walked with a firm step and mounted the
scaffold, As soon as he got there he requested to speak to
Mr. Davis, the ordinary, to whom he freely admitted hi:

too much,
and that he would very likely be sore by the day. And
under this impression they fell back upon
Macaroni,
and saw both their fears of one and hopes of the other
confirmed by the decision of the judge. That the French
horse could not move was evident directly he cantered to
the post; neither did the ground agree with him, and he
was fairly beaten in the bottom, cutting up so very diffe-
rently from the manner we saw him do last year, that h's
running cannot be taken to be correct. King of the Vale,
considering he was hardly "up to the mark," ran a good
horse, and by the St. Leger time will turn the tables on
both of those who finished before him. My selected
Citadel obtained an easy victory for the Prince of Wales's
Stakes, as a mare shaped like Teterrima was quite unfitted
to get the Cesarewitch Course, and it was proved in the
Biennial that Lord Clyde could not beat him, while little
danger was to be apprehended from the noisy Vanguard,
who broke down badly in the race, or the ill-shaped Barba-
does, who has never yet won a race, and hardly ever will, if
looks go for anything. For the Newmarket Two-Year-
Old Plate, brought forward from Thursday, 20 horses ran,
the only large field of the meeting. As usual there was
great anxiety evinced to get a peep at the youngsters, a
number of whom it was necessary to saddle on the Heath,
the stables only affording room for some dozen to perform
that necessary operation, so few cared to be at the trouble
of going there, but waited to see them assembled at the
starting-post. All duly made their appearance, but the
best looking of them, a colt by Brother to Bird on the
Wing, who being very restive and unruly, threw Aldcroft
a stunning fall a second or two after he mounted, which
completely incapacitated him from riding, and the horse
was sent home. Queen of the Vale, the only one I selected
to beat the field, had no difficulty in cutting down her
opponents. The One Thousand, from the heavy wagering
which took place on it, induced almost as many to attend
at the saddling as were present at that interesting proceed-
ing for the greater event on Tuesday, and happily the cold-
ness of the afternoon induced the trainers of the ten com-
petitors to make use of the saddling stables, where those
interested got a more satisfactory look at them than they
would have enjoyed on the dusty plain. All having pre-
viously run this year except Lady Augusta, Tornado,
Marigold, Cadeau, and Tease Me Not, they of
course attracted the greatest share of attention. Lord
Stamford's filly when pulled out astonished every-
body, so greatly has she grown and improved in every
way since last year, while her bright coat and muscular
appearance showed the immense pains Joe Dawson had be •
stowed on her. Tornado, on the contrary, pleased nobody,
which was not surprising, as she looked but a mere cob be-
side Lady Augusta, and her feet were so shelly that any
one could see it would be impossible for her to gallop with
freedom on ground so hard. Cadeau, though in beautiful
condition, looked scarcely anything bigger or better than
she was as a two year old, and the same may be said of
Tease Me Not, whom George Oates brought to the postfine
as a star. Marigold, who was out for the first time, looked
more adapted for a spin in a T.Y.C. handicap than to take

and as she evi-
dently " felt' the ground when she cantered, she gradually
receded in the betting until she reached 6 to 1, and another
point or two might be had for the asking. Marigold,
too, went back when seen, but 'sot so Tornado, who re-
mained to the finish almost a better favourite than
the magnificent daughter of Stockwell and Meeanee.
The result was quite in accordance with the betting, for
although Lady Augusta obtained the most hollow victory
ever seen for this event, Tornado was almost first in trouble,
and was beaten so easily that I am sure 141 b would hardly
bring them together. But this was not all. Lord Stam-
ford's second string, Flying Fish, proved herself to be but
little inferior to Lady Augusta, and numbers now believe
that the little 'un could have won, had Lord Stamford so
desired—a good proof of how correct his lordship was when
he entrusted her with a large stake for the Spencer Plate,
which she alone lost by being worn cut by the numerous
false starts, which, happily, now that the "fly" laces are
abolished, will be of rarer occurrence.
The York Spring Meeting is the great fixture of the
early part of the week, as Salisbury is of the latter, and at
each place there is every appearance of some excellent
sport, fo, there is sufficient horses in training in each
district to produce well-filled cards. At York there is
also the attraction of the Rawcliffe sale of yearlings, which
brings buyers from all parts of the country. The Craven
Stakes is the first race in the programme, and nine nomi-
nations are affixed to it, and I think the winner will be
Comet. The Knavesmire Plate, for twos and threes, has
a respectable entry, of which Livingstone is decidedly the
best of the three-yr-olds, and Measure-for-Measure,
and Lady Nichol of the two-yr-olds. The starters for the
Great Northern Handicap will in all probability comprise
Piccador, Carbineer, Joey Jones, Haddington, Adven-
turer, Welcome, Queen of Trumps, Prologue, Donny-
brook, Laura, Middlewatch, Physalis colt, Fantail, Man-
fred, and East Lancashire. Of this division Carbineer has
been made a favourite, and no horse can be better. It was
reported last week that he had broken down, but from in-
quiries I have made I find that the horse has not only not
broken down but that he was never better, and those
who have been taking liberties with him will shave
to pay dearly to get out. Joey Jones will doubt-
less go to get a line for National Guard; but although he
won at Doncaster very cleverly, the difference of weight and
company will be such as to stop him here. Iladdington, at
his original weight, would have had a good chance, but the
penalty, I conceive, will be as fatal to him as to Joey Jones.
Adventurer may be started by his new owner, with a view
of recovering some of the money dropped on the Metropoli-
tan, but I have no opinion of his chance now. Welcome
will like the course better than he did at Newmarket, but he
is only a very moderate animal. Queen of Trumps goes
fast, but will not get home. Prologue is turned loose, but
she is so horribly bad she cannot be trusted. Donnybrook
is looked on to have an outside Derby chance, and if so he
ought to run in front here. Laura is well in, but not very
fast ; still she is sure to stay, and will beat a great many
more than beat her. The Physalis colt has been amiss
since Newmarket, but if he is all right again he must have
a kind of a chance. for he could scarcely be as bad as his
running inferred him to be.

The race in my opinion is at the mercy of Lord 'Let-
land, wiih either CARBINEER or PICCALOR, and next to
his lordship's representative I expect to find FANTAIL and
the PHYSALIS COLT. The Flying Dutchman's Handicap
will be a match between GENERAL HESSE and the
SENORITA COLT. LIVINOSTONE ought to win the Eglin'
ton Stakes. The other items are yet to close. I would
merely remark that investments on 111.4.c.sitoziz at hie
present price for hedging purposes are sure to be remune-
rative, as the horse is certain, bar accident, to see 3 or 4 to 1,

Dr. Lushington said he should like to consider the articles
before proceeding to pass sentence. It appeared that Mr.
Jelf had acted erroneously, and he had violated the cam•
mon law if he had not violated the canon law. He could
not see any difference, for he held that in such a case the
common law stood as high as the canon law.
