sum -of $586,631 for the purchase from the land fund of

State, it appears that on the 20th November, 1851, it
amounted to $62,560,395 26c., exclusive of the stock
' authorised to be delivered to Texas by act of Congress of
9th September, 1850, amounting to $10,000,000 ; of
which $5,000,000 of certificates were ready and awaiting
the demand of that State at the date of the last annual
report ; that amount has since been delivered to the
authorised agent of the State of Texas, thus increasing
the aggregate registered debt to $67,560,395 26c. The

TROTTING EYPOSURES.

THE FLYING CLOUD AND JOCKEY MATCH AT NEWTON.

• IN 1852.
Some rather startling disclosures relative to this well-
remembered match were made at the Birmingham Dis-
trict Court of Bankruptcy, before rMr. Commissioner
Balguy, on Friday week, the 28th of January, in the
case of James Ford, of Wolverhampton, cattle dealer,
at a meeting for the choice of assignees. Mr. Knight
appeared for the petitioning creditor, and Mr. Solomons
(of the firm of J. and S. Solomons, solicitors, London).
Proof was tendered on behalf of Mr. Levi, clothier,
of London, for 2301., upon two bills of exchange ; but
this gave rise to an objection, on the ground that no con-
sideration had been given for the bills. The bankrupt,
in his examination, said, " The signatures on the two
bills now produced are mine • one is for 1001., and the
other for 1301. The one dated 4th Oetober is payable
three days after date for 1301., and the other, bearing
date four days after at fourteen days ' after date, both
drawn in favour-of Abraham Simmonds, who is a part.
uer of Levi's. I did not owe him a farthing when I
gave him the bills.. Simmonds came to my house
at Wolverhampton in September, and asked me if I
had not got a pony. I replied in the affirmative;
upon which he observed to me that he' had got
a very good horse, and then asked me., to lisvi
a sham match with him, which,l agreed to; and the n
nouncoment was made: If was arranged between us
that my pony should win. A' day or two before he men-
tioned that he did not know much good of me, and that,

u.my. pony won, as was agreed, upon,. I -should' draw
WV, ,and he begged that I would, give him bills for
hitlf‘the amount, which I ccinsented to-those now pro-
duced; He afterwards 'backed my pony, by his friends,
at 19. to Valid: hearing this, I locked my stable door,
and refused to let the pony start. On the night the race
was to have.been run I asked for the bills back, and
Simmonds said I should have theM the next day. I did
not draw one farthing from the pretended race. I would
notlet my pony run when I found that the other party
were backing the pony at such outrageous odds.". Mr.
Solomons distinctly denied that Simmonds was a. part-
ner of Levi's and cross-questioned the bankrupt as to
his furniture, which had been sold immediately preced-
ing the bankruptcy, and asked that the choice of assig-
nees should be adjourned, in order to give him an op.
portunity.of having his client examined, as he had been
led to understand that full condition had been given for
the bills in question. His honour refused to accept the
proof, but adjourned the choice of assignees to the day
fixed for the last examination, the 19th of the present
month. The case has excited a great deal of. interest
amongst all the sporting circles in Warwickshire and
Staffordshire, and the court was crowded throughout
the inquiry.—Racing Times.

the desire to drown the cry for Reform at home,
were the motives of our governors.
I Yes, and let Englishmen beware that the de-
mand for national defences be not used for the
same purpose as the old war-cry. Reform is as
obnoxious now to the same class as it was in
I 1793. Whig organs are, as we have already shown,
wanting to procrastinate the evil day, and national
defences are the pretext. Now, the Manchester
folk will do good service if they drive the " Com-
bination " Ministry from that shuffle, if they
show that what with our own pacific disposition,
and the reciprocal feeling across the Channel,
there really is no need to be in an indecent and
wasteful hurry at least about the matter. Our
present naval and military strength cannot be
played with by any madman, were there any
madman disposed to try it on ; it is conceded on
all bands that our 16,000,0001. a-year voted for
military purposes has been sadly misapplied, in
the navy especially ; and the demand of the
country undoubtedly will be, that the most effi-
cient use be made of that money, before we are
called upon to vote thousands or millions more.
If we have a surplus we are not to be cheated of
the repeal of Excise Duties, to waste the money
on ships that will not sail, or on cutting
new ships to pieces and putting them to-
gether again ; on lumbering, fatiguing,
hap - hazard shooting, old-fashioned muskets ;
no, nor on old admirals and generals, sacrificing
our troops by cholera, and our money by
lying still and eating it. We have no fear that
Manchester will ever persuade this country to live
by the sufferance of Europe ; no place, indeed, in
England might sooner have to repent of doing so,
even should no Frenchman ever breathe a whiff of
the smoke of its steam-engines ; no place would
sooner feel the effect of war both on its Money
Market and its Cotton Market, and with all defe-
rence to Mr. COBDEN, and his authorities, PEEL
and ABERDEEN, we must think that impregnability
has a good deal to do with being let alone. We
hope, moreover, that they will insist upon a most
thorough reform of our colonial military ex-
penses. Sir Wm. MOLESWORTH must '
not forget
his out-of-office Colonial Budget, and the people
must not neglect to press it home to him. If
England herself be invulnerable, her Colonies
are safe enough. Let our Dockyards, Ports, and
Arsenals be secure, and with our vast mechanical
resources we could in a few months launch an
additional Navy which would sweep the seas of
every hostile vessel, and blockade every hostile
port in Europe.

How is this ? Our noble old family mansion
which we repaired so thoroughly 20 years ago
(RUSSELL and Co., Architects), is sadly out of re-
pair. The wing at least where all the business is
done, and where most of the family live, quite
threatens to fall of itself ; it is neither weather-
tight nor water-tight, besides being such an odious
patching together of old and new in no sort of
symmetry, that it looks as if nothing could cure
it but pulling that part down, and making it
habitable and sightly once for all. Something
like this must have been the exclamation of
hundreds in looking over the newspaper lists of
the last elections, if they included the number of
voters and inhabitants for each borough and
county ; not only those " destructives"—HumE,
COBDEN, BRIGHT, BERKELEY, and the like—but
thousands, by no means Radicals, as they have
glanced at Thetford, with 200 voters, and return-
ing two members; Manchester, with 14,000, or
Liverpool, with 17,000 voters, also returning two
members, have been ready to throw the paper
into the fire, and execrate the injustice in terms
prohibited to parsons at least. And if the list
has been given in , "one of those vile radical
things " which many, naso suspendunt adunco, and
" never read," and a few calculations have been
added, such as that 66 small boroughs, with a
population under half a million, return 99 mem-
bers ; and 51 large boroughs, with a population
of more than five-and-a-half millions, also return
99 members, the choler of most of the junior and
middle-aged members of Mr. BULL'S family has
been irresistibly set in motion by the discovery.

new tenpenny pieces to the coffins; all these it will
be said, would have been done, and as well done,
by the DERBY Ministry. The demand will be
that, that the one great thing, to oppose which
Lord DERBY has pledged himself, and to forward
which Lord JOHN has pledged himself, both in
Perth and in London, that that one thing shall
be promptly and worthily brought forward. Even
if a case for a commission of inquiry after facts
could be made out, the composition of that com-
mission will soon reveal whether it be meant for
an evasion or a real help. Suppose it to consist
of two known Conservatives, two Whigs, and two
uncompromising Radicals, its labours might, no
doubt, accumulate much trustworthy information ;
it could, however, most certainly be of no further
service to the cause of Reform than that of stop-
ping the mouths of many opponents. Any honest
Minister, without waiting a day beyond the time
requisite to proportion representation by well-
known data of the census and rate-books, and
determined to protect the purity of election by
large constituencies, and secret voting, could easily
present a Bill which the country would ratify at
once. The country knows this as well as the
Cabinet, and the latter may be sure that any
symptom of vacillation on this grand question,
will be the commencement of distrust on the part
of those whose hearty support is indispensable to
its existence. They have a first-rate adversary,
and it is not by a renewal of wiggish temporising
that they can hold their ground against him.
Their course must be one either of bold measures
and reliance on the people, or of timid trimming,
with the reward of humiliations at pleasure by
the brilliant Leader of the powerful Opposition.
With such ample scope for a political, as well as
an administrative reputation, it will be suicidal
folly to ruin themselves politically, hoping to
make atonement by offerings of tenpenny pieces,
clean water, and suburban sepulchres.

MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, Two o'CLocK.
The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday
were estimated at 6,000 bales, of which 1,000
American were taken for export and on speculation.
The market closed firmly, but without spirit. The
sales comprised 5,000 American, 120 Pernam and
Maranham at 61(1. to 61d., 350 Bahia at 6.1 d. to
Old., 100 Egyptian at 7 d., and 500 Surat at 4d.
to 41d. per lb. Railway shares were firm at higher
rates.

In a communication from Messrs. Witherby and
Hanson, the present state of the dried fruit trade
is shown to be one of considerable interest. It ap-
pears that the advices from Greece continue very
unfavourable with respect to the forthcoming crop.
The disease, which last year attacked the fruit
when advancing towards maturity, has appeared
this year at the earliest period of germination; and
in Cephalonia, where the disease was least destruc-
tive last year, the worst symptoms have appeared.
On this account, prices have risen in Germany and
Holland, where stocks will propably be limited.
At these places large purchases have been made of
Chesme raisins. Figs have advanced owing to the
scarcity and anticipated large orders from America.
The ship Bloomer from Sydney has arrived with
42,800/. She left on the 3d November, and there-
fore brings no later news.
The Continental advices received this morning
are rather more favourable concerning the. Stock
Markets.
The project for a canal across the Isthmus of
Darien has this day been advertised, and we shall
take an early opportunity of entering into its
merits. In the meantime the following points de-
serve attention :
" The capital appears large, but the return will be in
proportion to the magnitude of the undertaking. This
is not a question dependent on local trade ; every mari-
time nation has an interest in its success, and the com-
merce of the world will yield the profits. Moreover,
the vast supplies of gold now discovered, afford means
which cannot be applied to more beneficial objects than
in extending the blessings of civilization by facilitating
the operations of commerce.
In such a case statistics are almost superflous ; it is
safer to consult the history of the progress of commerce,
and argue from it, than to calculate profits from the ex-
isting state of things. But even on this limited ground
it can be shewn that the capital invested will meet with
a good return, by charging only a little more than the
amount saved in the insurance, without reference to all
the other advantages which this route will offer. From
the trade statistics it appears, that in 1851 upwards of
3,000,000 tons of shipping, and 150,000 passengers
would in that year have taken advantage of this naviga-
tion.

Lord Wharncliffe is chairman, and the direction
is influential and practical.
At the meeting of the Northern Counties Union
Railway Company this day, the report stated that
the attention of the directors was still directed to
the settlement of existing liabilities. As to the fu-
ture prospects, the directors had not as yet entered

into arrangements with any other company, but
from the importance of the district where part of
the line is laid down, they expected to do so advan-
tageously whenever that opportunity should arise.
The accounts shewed the receipts of tho half year
to be 18,9121. 18s. 10d., and the balance in hand,
after expenditure, was 15,5201. 6s. 9d. After
a brief discussion, the report was adopted unani-
mously.

The Hon. East India Company has in the last
fortnight drawn bills on the three Presidencies to
the amount of only 26,4591.
The Stock Market is buoyant, and, as we antici-
pated, prices tend upwards towards the settlement
of the account. Consols have been 99# to for
transfer, and 99# to for account. The prices for
March are about / per cent. higher. The New 3k
per Cents. have been quoted 1031 #, and the 3 per
Cents. 100- to #. Bank Stock has been lower, viz.,
227 to 228. South Sea Old Annuities have been
marked 99i. Exchequer Bills of March are 50s.
to 545. premium. Arrivals of gold from Australia
are now expected daily—the Roxburgh Castle,
from Port Philip, whence she sailed Nov. 12,
having 850,0001. on board.

Foreign securities have been variable. Grenada
Deferred are not so good, being at 11k, i. Mexi-
can Bonds have realised 22k, g : a slight improve-
ment. Peruvian Deferred have been at 62. Bra-
zilian Old Stock has been marked 104. The
Turkish loan has improved to i discount. Spanish
stock has been rather heavy, the 3 per Cent. at 47
to i, and the Deferred at 22i- to 23. The Certifi-
cate is worth 41. Russian Five per Cents. have
been quoted 120, and Dutch Four per Cents. 98.
Railway Shares have been firm again, and the
rise of yesterday is fully maintained. Eastern
Counties have run up fto i. The old Companies
with 1001. paid are generally about 10s. better,
but South-Eastern have risen i to i, York and
Berwick 1 to li, and York and North Midland li
to 2. French Shares are steady, but very -
active. The Upper India have been in demand at
to i premium.

- An upward movement of a very decided charac-
ter has taken place in the South Australian Land
Company's Shares, which recently have been so
seriously
iousl depressed by Bear operations. The rise
is 61. to Si. since Saturday, but holders estimate
the intrinsic value of the shares up to 70 and 80.
The Australian Agricultural Shares have advanced
also 5/. to 101.

The Australian Banks have been dealt in to a
fair extent, but not at higher rates.

The Gold Mines are very firm, though witl
limited transactions.
The Dock Company's Shares have been in re•
quest at full prices.

LAW INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Master of the Rolls.)

SHREWSBURY AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY COMPANY V
THE LONDON AND NORTH WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY.

This was a motion for an injunction to compel the
defendants to execute certain agreements made by them
with the plaintiffs. The defendants contended that
these agreements were illegal, as being calculated to
create a monopoly, and thus create a public injury ; and
also on the ground that these agreements were out of
the scope of their Act of Parliament. This was one of a
series of motions arising out of the quarrels of the two
companys, which have now been before the public some
years. Lord Cottenham granted an injunction, which
was afterwards dissolved by Lord Truro, who sent a
case for trial to the Court of Queen's Bench, where
judgment was given favourable to the plaintiffs on seve-
ral issues. The present application was argued before
his honour in December last.

His Honour now gave judgment, going through the
case at considerable length, dismissed the plaintiffs' bill,
being of opinion that the act gave no powers for leasing
part of the line, but only the whole of it when it should
be completed. No order was made as to costs.
(Before Vice-Chancellor Stuart.)
TOORS V. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY

THE PIGEONS OF GUILDHALL.

At a committee of aldermen, held at Guildhall,
Alderman Wilson having represented that Mr. Temple,
the hall-keeper, had given directions to some of the
persons in waiting upon the several committees to de-
stroy the pigeons which have been sheltered in the nooks
and crannies of the building for many years, and have
of late become exceedingly numerous, that officer was
called before the aldermen to account for having issued
an order so much at variance with the taste of the cor-
poraton.

The Hall-keeper said the inhabitants of King-street,
in the immediate vicinity of Guildhall, had often com-
plained of the nuisance occasioned by the pigeons, a
nuisance of which none but those who were subjected to
their frequent visits could form an adequate opinion.
The dresses of several ladies who happened to tit under
the elevations on which they perched themselves in
swarms, had suffered more or less from the birds, and
the familiarity with which they were treated by the
people all round actually caused them to fly in at win-
downs and down chimneys to the great annoyance of
families. (Laughter.)
Alderman Wilson—l should wish to hear some in-
stances in which the poor pigeons have given such moral
offence. (Hear, hear.)Sir James Shaw, our old
chamberlain, with whose kindness of heart we are all
acquainted, took great delight in supplying them with
food, considering that it was essential to the character
of Guildhall for hospitality that such harmless tenants
should receive a little of the bounty of the corporation.
The Hall-keeper said that about three or four years
ago the splendid dress of a lady who sat at the Lord
Mayor's dinner in the hall was completely destroyed Sy
the unceremonious conduct of some of the pigeons above
her head. (Laughter.) Two years ago, when his ser-
vant girl went into one of the bedrooms she was hor-
rified by a noise in tbe chimney, and immediately after-
wards down tumbled a quantity of soot, and a pigeon
in the midst of it. But that was not the only disagree-
able consequence of the unwelcome visit, for the bird in
its fright fluttered not only against the walls of the
room, but against the Curtains of the bed, and did a
great deal of damage, very much to the annoyance of
his wife, and the terror of his children. (Laughter.)
Alderman Lawrence—How much soot came down
upon that occasion ?
The Hall-Keeper—The room was covered with it.
Alderman Lawrence—lt seems, then, that the pigeon
saved you the expense of employing a chimney-sweeper.
It is quite evident, from the quantity of soot which ac-
companied the bird in its visit to your bedroom, that
you don't lay out much money in can ying out that por-
tion of our sanitary regulations. (Laughter.)
The Hall-Keeper—The passages to my house are con-
stantly covered with dirt from the multitude of pigeons.
They were endurable when there were no more than 15
or 16 of them about the 'building, but the number has
increased to 70 or 80, and I am sure I would be obliged
to any one who would kill them.
Alderman Humphery—No, no ! I would recommend
you Mr. Hall-keeper, to turn what you seem to be so
disgusted with to advantage, by setting up a guano shop
and selling it as manure. (Laughter.)
Alderman Cubitt said—At Venice pigeons were so
much respected that they were maintained at the public
expense, and nobody was permitted to molest them.
He could not see why the Guildhall pigeons, which had,
as it were, become part and parcel of the corporation
should be disturbed, except, indeed, it was intended to
make pies of them for the use of the corporation. (Great
laughter).
Alderman Humphrey said, he thought the hail-keeper
could give the committee a very fair idea of the flavour
of the birds as he had so great an anxiety to put them
to death.
Alderman Wilson—We will certainly not allow a
wholesale destruction of the pigeons, which are qbjects
of interest in the neighbourhood, and had been all of
rhem born under and upon the roof of the building.
After some further conversation, in the course of
which it was admitted that it would be very proper to
dispense with the presence of the pigeons at the dinner
of the 9th of November, the hall-keeper succeeded so
far in substantiating his complaint as to obtain from
the committee their consent to decrease the number of
the offenders to about a moiety. It was agreed that the
argument of the injury to the ladies' dresses, not to say
a word about the beards and bald heads of the ambassa-
dors, and the wigs of the bishops and judges and ser-
jeants learned in the law, was fatal to the cause of the
birds, which are said from their chattering and cooing
to take delight in the mischief they dropped upon the
magnificence below.
Alderman Wilson advised the hall-keeper to employ
some of the pigeons he was about to banish to scour all
his chimneys before they departed.
