FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE MOlad

COALPIT.

On Wednesday morning, Thomas Mort, a haulier, sgea
18 years, met with his death at the Morfa Coal Pit,
near Aberavon. It seems that he had been sent doll
to the deep to hitch some trains by a man named
Dummer, and as he was always ready to do a turo
for anyone when it was in his power, he went at once/
and it is supposed that he was riding on the chain of
tram up the incline, when the chain broke and the
carriages went over his legs, breaking both in severs'
places. It was a very long time before his companion;
could take him to the top of the pit, and then they b*
two miles to take him to the surgeon. Ere this hour ho
elapsed, he expired on the road, undoubtedly from loss of
blood.

LAYABD AND PUBLIC BILLS.

There are two members of the Government who
do not hesitate to declare their differences in public.
Mr. Lowe puts down as a popular weakness the love
for ornamented or fine buildings, and ever and
anon he grumbles at the expense which this weakness
causes. Mr. Layard, on the other hand, is an
enthusiast in calling for the education of the public
taste. In an address delivered on Thursday, at the
London Artisans' Club and Institute, he said there
was nothing in his opinion more calculated to raise
taste in this country, or to create a high intellectual
and moral feeling, than the internal adornment of
public buildings. If it pleased the gentlemen in the
House of Commons to allow him to retain the
position he held, he hoped to be able to do something
to shew the people of this country. there was some-
thing in internal decoration. This country be con-
sidered almost entirely ignorant of whatinternal
decoration really was.

THE EXTENSIVE ROBBERY AT COLONEL TEESDALE'S.—
James Gillis and Mary Ann Gillis, husband and wife, the
former lately servant to Colonel C. C. Teesdale, equerry
to the Prince of Wales, residing at No. 67, Berners- street,
Oxford-street, charged with stealing two Orders of the
Medjidie, and a large quantity of other property belong-
ing to Col. Teesdale, were brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt.
The evidence showed that the male prisoner was in the
service of Colonel Teesdale, and with his wife was left in
charge of the Colonel's house while ho was with the Prince
of Wales on his travels in the East, and on the colonel's
return be discharged the male prisoner,and afterwards found
that lie had been robbed of a very large amount of property.
He communicated with the police, and Inspector Hubbard,
of the E division, went to Gravesend and apprehended the
prisoner in a bye street, and Police-constable Boyce, 55
E, on going to the prisoner's room in Central-street, St.
Luke's, found in a box two Orders of the Medjidie, one of
them broken up, and duplicates relating to different articles
of the colonel's property, 73 duplicates in all being found
relating to property, principally pledged by the female
prisoner in different names.

On the case being resumed to-day several pawnbrokers
assistants attended and produced property pledged by the
female prisoner.
Inspector Hubbard said that during the colonel's ab-
sence the prisoners, he had ascertained, had been obtain-
ing goods to a large amount from different tradesmen in
the immediate neighbourhood of the colonel's residouoe in
the colonel's name, but without his authority.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it seemed to bins the.t as long as the
persons offering the things in pledge at sonic establish-
ments did not say the things were stolen they were readily
taken in.
In one case it was shown that an assistant to Mr. At-
terborough, of Oxford-street, had taken in a dirk and
Highland costume from the female prisoner, and Mr Tyr
what expressed a hope that the judge would remark on
the circumstance of the dirk, although bearing tht colo-
nel's crest, having been taken in on the aivance of 10s.
The prisoners were committed for trial.

TILE POLITICAL CRISIS.

Deputations from the Irish Church Conference, the
Irish Presbyterians, and the Church Defence Asso-
ciation are to have an interview with " the Peers"
(what peers is not stated), at the Duke of Abercorn's
residence, Chesterfield House, Mayfair, at 12.30
to-day. Committee-rooms for the use of the
deputations have been engaged at the Westminster
Palace Hotel. We presume that Lord Cairns, who
lately went over to Dublin to confer with Archbishop
Trench and Sir Joseph Napier, will be present.
To shew the uncertainty which still prevails with
regard to the intentions of the Conservative peers,
we find two journals which profess to be honoured
with special intelligence publishing very varied infor-
mation. The Conservative-Orange _Dublin Mail
eays that the leaders of the Opposition have deter-
mined not to throw out the Church Bill, but to
repeat the tactics of 1860, in the hope that they
may return to power, when they will propose a
scheme of concurrent endowment. The Irish Times,
the organ of Major Knox and the High Tory
Protestants, says "it is the belief of well-informed
parties that there will be no diestablish-
inent nor disendowment of the Irish Church
in the
it present session." The Scotsman con-
siders is generally admitted that there is no
prospect of the House of Lords throwing out the
bill. The statements of the Scotch Liberal and the
two Irish Conservative papers are not absolutely irre-
concileable. It is possible, for instance, that the
Lords will so alter the bill in committee that the
Commons will refuse to accept their measure in its
new shape, and that the matter will then be postponed
to another session. But if there be any truth in the
report which attributes to Mr. Disraeli and Lord
Cairns the intention of renewing the levelling-up
proposal, it is difficult to see how they can obtain
any support from the fanatical ultra-Protestants
like Mr. Johnson and Lord Roden in Ireland, Mr.
Newdegate and Lord Redesdale in England, and
Mr. Aytoun in Scotland.

From Ireland alone is there any compact mass of
opinion in favour of the Irish Church Bill being
thrown out by the Upper House of Parliament. In
Ulster, it must be admitted, there is a strong party
which would desire that any thing should take place
rather than the disestablishment of the Irish Church
should be accomplished. But Mr. Disraeli is the
leader of an opposition to the Government, and he
would probably like that the bill should pass in its
entirety rather than that the number of his
supporters in the Commons should further dwindle.
The Orange faction are appealing from party to
principle, are now denouncing Mr. Gladstone, then
Lord Cairns; they care nothing for the organisation
of the House of Commons; they look no farther
than to the present bill. But with threatenings of
land reforms and other Ministerial measures, with
the knowledge that the rejection of the bill by the
Lords would only delay, not avert, the passage of
the measure, the leaders of the Tory party should be,
from their own point of view, very slow indeed to
counsel that the agitation in the country should be
renewed.

There are two members of the Government who
do not hesitate to declare their differences in public.
Mr. Lowe puts down as a popular weakness the love
for ornamented or fine buildings, and ever and
anon he grumbles at the expense which this weakness
causes. Mr. Layard, on the other hand, is an
enthusiast in calling for the education of the public
taste. In an address delivered on Thursday, at the
London Artisans' Club and Institute, he said there
was nothing in his opinion more calculated to raise
taste in this country, or to create a high intellectual
and moral feeling, than the internal adornment of
public buildings. If it pleased the gentlemen in the
House of Commons to allow him to retain the
position he held, he hoped to be able to do something
to chew the people of this country there was some-
thing in internal decoration. This country he con-
sidered almost entirely ignorant of whatinternal
decoration really was.

THE RACE.

Mr. M'George, the starter, was as fortunate as in the
Derby in getting his horses away at the second attempt.
The first to shew in advance when they were fairly in
their places were Crocus, Curieuse, and Dryad, who ran
nearly abreast, about a length in advance of the favourite ;
close up with whom were seen the colours of Miss Foote,
Brigantine, Toison d'Or, and Clemency ; the others were
headed by Aubade, Teeswater, and Polissonne,
Hymen, Scottish Queen, Minaret, and Martinique
being in the extreme rear. The last-named in
particular was extremely slow in beginning, but
before Sherwood's Cottage had been reached, some
fifty yards from the start, she had quitted her horses and
succeeded in overtaking the leaders, who were running at
a wretched pace. Half-way up the hill, Morna on the
inside ran up to the leaders, and at once assumed the
' lead. Curieuse and Dryad at the same time gave way,
and their places were taken by Miss Foote, Toison d'Or,
and Brigantine, the French filly going on next, in
company with Brigantine, Crocus, Teeswater, and
Martinique, close in whose track came Scottish Queen
and Teeswater, the rearmost horses even at this early
period being widely separated. In these positions they
remained through the furzes, but on rounding the turn
into the old course, at the mile-post, Morna and Miss
Foote drew away, and were two or three lengths in
front of Toison d'Or and Brigantine as they descended
the hill, on the right being Crocus and Martinique, with
Teeswater and Scottish Queen as their immediate fol-
lowers. Thus they proceeded until fairly round Tat-
tenhom Corner, but on entering the straight Miss Foote
was seen in difficulties, and in a few strides further her
colours disappeared from the van. Toison d'Or followed
suit immediately after, which left the Woodyeates filly in
attendance upon Sir Joseph Hawley's favourite, Crocus

to the leaders, who drew away, and came on several
lengths clear, Morna, on the whip hand of Brigantine,
holding a decided lead, which she retained to the enclosure.
Here Cannon, who had bided his time through the dirt,
brought up his filly, and, fairly heading Morna at the
Stand, cantered home the winner by a couple of lengths ;
Martinique finished a wretched third, Crocus and Tees-
dale being fourth and fifth, close up. An interval of
eight or ten lengths separated these from Scottish Queen,
Toison d'Or, and Dryad, who headed the pulling-up
division, the last of whom were Aubade, Curieuse, and
Minaret. Time of the race, as taken by Benson's

THE UNITED STATES.

Joint-stock property meets with queer treatment in
America. Messrs. Fisk, Gould and Lane, the three
directors of the Erie Company who have perpetrated such
extraordinary swindles during the last few months, have
prepared a railway bill for the express purpose of keeping
themselves in office. This local measure has to secure the
consent of the New York Governor, and the share-
holders are anxiously awaiting the decision of their
fate, which, it appears, they have no power to
control themselves. Governor Hoffman has on previous
occasions exhibited a decided disinclination to counte-
nance these legislative attempts at fraud. This measure
will be the test of his " quality," as the New York Times
puts it. On the one hand, he is to consider that it is one
of the most flagrant outrages ever perpetrated on a body
of helpless stockholders, in the interest of a few reckless
and unscrupulous stockjobbers ; on the other, that the
" Ring " demand its being signed in order to keep them-
selves in funds for the coming campaign.

THE METROPOLITAN GUARDIANS.

The metropolitan guardians do not take kindly
to 11r. Hardy 's Poor Law Amendment Act. They
do not like to admit the nominees of the Poor-law
Board, and they are taking every possible means to
oust them. The central office has as yet, however, been
one too many for them. The St. Pancras guardians are
the most determined in their opposition. They are
requested or commanded by the Board to meet at
ten in the morning. At this time the City men who
have been appointed can attend the meetings, while
at three they cannot. But the guardians insist upon
meeting at three, and one week refused to sign the
relief cheques for the week—a kind of strike, which,
while it brought no inconvenience to strikers, and
was hardly a pressure upon the Poor-law Board, was
very hard indeed to the persons requiring relief.
The contest is still proceeding. The Poor-law Board
refuses to alter the hour of meeting ; the guardians
have determined to meet at three o'clock.

Race Glasses, by Voigtland, are now ao longer the ex-
clusive luxury of the rich. Since the great demaud for
photographic lenses has diminished, an opportunity has
been afforded for applying metlanical power with the
greatest success, whereby the cost of these beautiful and
most perfect instruments is reduced in price in some
instances to as much as 2U per cent. In fact they are now
no dearer than those of the best French or English makers.
At the depot Aallaghan, 23e, New Bond-street, corner of
Conduit-street, the patrons of the Derby may indulge
their taste in the possession of a veritable Voigtlander at
comparatively trilling cost. It is superfluous to say the
quality is as ever matchless.

EARLY RACING.—The important question of placing
some restriction upon the running of two year olds before
a certain period of the year came before the Jockey Cie,
on Saturday last, when Sir Joseph Hawley moved,
and Mr. Chaplin second, resolutions to the following
effect:—" (1). That no two year old shall run earlier in
the year than July 1. (2). That no two year old shall
start for any handicap, and a horse running in contra-
vention of this or the preceding rule will thenceforth
be disqualified for running at any meeting where the
Rules of the Jockey Club are in force. (2). That in
future no money shall be added from the funds of
ma the
Jockey Club to any race for which two year olds y
be entered. (4). That if two or more two year olds
run a dead heat, they shall not be allowed to run again,
but the prize shall be equally divided between or
among them. Providing Sir Joseph Hawley's first and
second resolutions be not carried, Colonel Forester will
move that the following resolutions besha carruried in
ir
lace •—,,(1) That no two year old ll n befor
P •
(2) That no two year old shall start for any handicap
before September 1. Horses running in contravention of
either of these rules to be disqualified from running at any
meeting where the rules of the Jocic.-y Club are in force,
and the resolutions, if passed, not to .ha applic.abletotares
already closed and entered for.' Great interest is mani-
fested l-y breeders and others on the subject, which Await
no doubt be fully discussed in its bearings, and a petition
against the proposal numerously signed by owners and
trainers, has been presented to the Jockey Club.
Aldershot Flat Races are fixed for July 2 and 3.
Bianca (3 yrs) has been renamed " Dotherly Barwise."
Major Stapylton's Meliora, by Optimist out of Christina
(4 yrs), is dead.
Mr. Payne's Brother to General Peel (3 yrs) has been
