trition, and the Manoeuvre filly, 25 to 1 agst Regalia, 33

The usual delay at the post was occasioned by the over-
anxiety of several of the light weights to get away. At
last, through the aid of an assistant, the 30 competitors
were got to the post in something like order, when the
signal was lowered, and the race commenced. When
fairly in their places the colours of Chapel Royal were
seen conspicuously in the van in the centre of the course,
his immediate attendants being Wild Agnes, Archimedes,
Nutrition, Gardevisure, the Manama-re filly, Bounceaway,
and Ischia on the left, followed by the Attack colt,
Leases, Comus, Harpenden, Mother of Pearl, and Vigorous

onaise filly, Dalesman, Tormentor, and Regalia lying
some lengths in their rear. With little or no alteration
they came down the hill into the dip, where the front
division opened, and on crossing the road Jasper quitted
his companions, and as they commenced the ascent of the
hill he was upwarda of a couple of lengths in advance of
the Attack colt, wide on his right, with Wild Agnes, the
Mayonaise filly, the Manoeuvre filly, and Bounceaway fol-
lowing at wide intervals, the remainder of the field pre-
senting a disjointed appearance. On reaching the Stand
Jasper ran out somewhat, which for a brief period fa-
voured Lord Wilton's chance ; but little Jeffery, with
great quickness, steadied his hoiso, and immediately shook
off his followers, and won with great ease by a couple of
lengths. The Attack colt finished five lengths in advance
of Wild Agnes, who was as far in front of the Mayonaise
filly, fourth ; the Manoeuvre filly was fifth, Bounceaway
sixth, Chapel Royal seventh, Camellia eighth, Nutrition
ninth, and Ischia next. Then followed'at wide intervals
Grey Stockings, Actma, Leases, Union Jack, and Sweet

By a rare stroke of good fortune Anselm Par-
sons of Becket from the poorest has suddenly become one
of tub richest men in Pittsfield. The wills of his grand-
father, uncle, sister, and other relations leave him $200,000,
mostly in real estate in New York, Vermont, and Illinois,
and each of his children a fine farm and homestead.
Another lucky individual in the same town is Major
Brown, who has recently received a legacy of $30,000.
The major is old and feeble, and before this windfall had
hard work to keep his head above water.
The Lynchburg Virginian states that in Mont-
gomery county, Virginia, a child has been christened
"Andrew Jackson Gordon James Buchanan Raise the
Flag And Fire the Cannon Dobyns." The only name
we know of that in any way equals this was that of
a child, born before Delhi at the commencement of the
last siege. When the infant was christened under the
roar of the guns, and with a very precarious tenure of life,
considering that the odds were all against the Christian
community, the child was named "Delhi Field Force."
Ezekiel Hayes, the printer for Yale College,
widely known and much respected by members of the
craft, died suddenly at his residence in New Haven.

after consulting all the most eminent medical men in vain,
and trying all sorts of supposed remedies without relief,
have grown weary of existence, and have ceased to hope
for comfort on this side of the grave, until some lucky ac-
cident has called their attention to Holloway's pills and
ointment. These are genuine remedies indeed. Persons
bedridden for months with rheumatic pains and swellings
after the ointment has been well rubbed into the affected
parts and the blood purified by a course of these pills, have j
found themselves restored in an incredibly short time to
perfect health and ease, - .

L'mited Liability Companies.

The. Commons' Select Committee (Mr. Watkin's)
on,thc operation of the limited Liability Acts have
made their report. Seventeen witnesses were
examined, The report recommends that limited
liability companies be allowed to have a class of
shareholders responsible to the extent of the whole
of their means, and the rest only to the extent of
their shares; and also to have a portion of their
shares paid up in full, and the remainder not so
paid up, and to issue for shares paid up in full cer-
tificates to bearer, so that these shares may be
transferable by delivery. It is further recommended
that the seller of shares shall have a right to regis-
tration of them in the name of a buyer who signs
an acceptance of them ; that the law of the mode of
contracting, so as to bind companies by_their agents,
be amended by introducing Clause 41 of the Joint-
Stock Companies Act of 1856 ; and that all compa-
nies shall hold a general meeting of shareholders
within four months from the registration of the
company. Another recommendation is that com-
panies "be allowed to reduce their capital or the
amount of their shares with the consent of all their
creditors and giving public notice ; in case of the
absence or legal incapacity of creditors, the amount
of
,their claims may be invested in Government'
..securities, or lodged in the Bank of England under
eondttions to be approved by the Board of Trade.
ib is proposed that a shareholder's petirgin to wind
up a company be signed by ona or more
original allottees or persons who have been
shareholders for six months ; and that the
Court shall have power to refer the simpler
cases of liquidation to a county court. The com-
mittee recommend that these alterations in the law
be made in this Session. Some other resolutions
were proposed to the committee by Mr. Watkin,
but rejected. He proposed a resolution to the effect
that on allotment of shares a printed copy of the
memorandum and articles of association, and of any
other schedules or documents which bind the com-
pany be sent with the letter of allotment ; upon
which Mr. Alderman Salomons proposed, as an
amendment, that copies of the articles of associa-
tion be on sale at a price not exceeding is. to any
shareholder applying for an allotment of shares ;
but both motion and amendment were rejected by
large majority. Mr. Watkiu further proposed that
all companies be compelled to supply to any share-
holder applying for it a list of the name and ad-
dresses of the shareholders whose shares are not
fully paid up ; and also that the companies should
send to any member applying for it a shorthand
writer's report of the proceedings of every general
meeting; but these motions were negatived. The
resolution allowing two classes of shareholders, with
limited and unlimited liability, was adopted in lieu
of a resolution proposed by Mr. Watkin to the effect
that it should be made clear that companies may
adopt the principle of commandite partnership—.
that is to say, carry on business under the chief
control of a manager responsible to the extent of
the whole of his means, while the rest of the mem-
bers of the company are responsible only to the ex-
tent of their shares.
