SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER—TUESDAY.
For the Lincolnshire Handicap, Orleans opened at 5 to
1, taken freely, subsequently, however, 6 to 1 was cur-
rently offered against him, but he came again at the close,
and more than 6 to 1 became unobtainable. 9to 1 was
offered throughout the day, bar one. Tiara was in force
at 12 to 1. Mr. Sykes
sand Clemanthe were much out of
favour, 100 toy 6 being always to be had about either o
them. For the Liverpool Steeplechase 6to 1 was offered
on the field, 100 to 6 agst Half-Caste, 20 to 1 agat Jealousy,
and 25 to 1 agst Weathercock—indeed, nothing for this
race at present seems to go down but the Brewer. Little
Agnes was supported for the Northampton Stakes at 9 to 1,
and 1000 to 50 was taken about Shafto. For the Chester
Cup, 1000 to 40 was taken about Polestar, and 1000 to 30
about Underhand. 11,000 to 100 was offered in one or tiro
places agst Drogheda.

shut Up by a high toll, whereag if it were thrown open, it
would be a great public Convenience, and improve the value
of property in Southwark. We had built a bridge at Bat-
tersea, as a road to the new park, and then put a. padlock
upon:it in the shape of a toll. He thought the time had
come to deal with this state of affairs, and he hoped that his
motion would be acceded to.
Mr.,WALPOLE said he had had a conversation with
the commissioners on this subject, and they had informed
him that the work they had already in hand was so great
that if this was added it would prevent them from making
a ay report this year. The difficulty of raising funds for the
road tolls abolished would also be very great, but if that of
r. using money for the bridge tolls were added, it would be
npossible to meet the demand by one measure. He Bug-
g ested that it would be better for the hon. gentleman to
wa it until the report of the commissioners was before the
house upon one subject, and he would then be better pre-
pax ed to form an opinion as to the best course to pursue
tha a at present.
Mr. ALCOCK assented to this course, and the motion
wet: withdrawn.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supply of English wheat on offer, to-day, was rather
limited ; but all kinds moved off slowly, at Monday's cur-
rency. The general condition of the samples was by no
means first-rate.

There was only a limited inquiry for foreign wheat;
nevertheless, holders were firm in their demands. The show
of samples was large.

We had a fair inquiry for most kinds of barley, at full
quotations, and fine malt Was quite as dear as on Monday.
We had a fair sale for oats and peas, on former terms.
Beans moved off slowly, at Monday's decline in value.
The flour trade ruled heavy. In prices, however, no
change took place.

PETITIONS.

Petitions were presented in favour of a comprehensive
measure of parliamentary reform ; the repeal of the paper
duty; and the extension of Christianity in India.

CHURCH-RATES ABOLITION BILL.
On the motion of Sir J. TRELAWNEY, the second
reading of this bill was postponed till Monday next.

CHURCH-RATES COMMUTATION BILL.

On the order of the day for the second reading of this
bill,

±lr. WALPOLE suggested that the hon. member
(Mr. Alcock) should postpone the bill until next Monday.
Considering that the other measure on the subject had been
put off until that day, he thought it would be very incon-
venient to have the present bill discussed on that occasion.
Mr. ALCOCK regretted that he could not comply with
the request of the right hon. gentleman. At the end of
last session, when it was found that the hon. baronet (Sir
J. Trelawney) could not effect the passing of the Church-
rates Abolition Bill, he communicated with him, and he
(Sir J. Trelawney) consented to his introducing his (Mr.
Alcock's) measure. It had been read a first time, and he
did not consider it was fair to him to propose to interrupt
the progress of the bill at its present stage. His bill pro-
vided for the raising of a fund to meet the purposes to
which a church-rate was applied, and it was entirely volun-
tary and permissive. By the bill of the right honour-
able baronet the incumbent and churchwardens of a
parish were constituted a corporation in perpetuity to
maintain the fabric of the church; but he could not
see how such a body would be able to effect what
they had already failed in accomplishing. -The chief dif-
ference between his bill and that of the hon. baronet was
that he proposed to call to his assistance the Charity Com-
missioners already existing. That body administered no
less than £1,200,000 annually, and had to deal with charities
some of which were of the value of only 10s. a week, while
others amounted to no less than £35,000 a year.
Mr. COLLINS moved an amendment that the bill be
read a second time on Monday next.
After a few words from Mr. D. GRIFFITHS and Mr. S.
ESTCOURT, the motion was withdrawn and the bill was
ordered to be read a second time on Monday next.
ELECTIONS, &c., BILL.
Mr. COLLINS moved the second reading of this bill, and
stated that the first clause proposed to assimilate the law
relating to voting in Ireland with that of England, and
that the other clauses had for their object the shortening of
notices at elections in the latter country.
After some observations from Mr. J. D. VITZGERALD,
the second reading of this bill was postponed till Wednesday
next.

MIDDLB SEX SESSIONS, Feb. 22.

(Before Mr. Pashley, Q.C., Assistant Judge.)
David West, 23, a cellarman, in the service of
Mr. L. Clow, a wine and bottled beer merchant in
Prince's-street, Fitzroy-square, was indicted for
stealing bottles of beer, the property of his master,
and George Packard, a calico glazer in Tottenham
place, who surrendered, was indicted for feloniously
receivint, them,knoNVing that they had been stolen.
Mr. Metcalfe prosecuted ; Mr. Ribton defended
Packard. West was not defended.

The case lasted the greater part of the day. It
rested principally upon the evidence of two boys
who had been in Packard's service, and the learned
counsel for that prisoner ably contended in a length-
ened address that the jury could not with safety
convict a respectable man upon such testimony.
A number of witnesses spoke to Packard's good
character hitherto.

The jury found West guilty and acquitted Packard,
The Assistant-Judge sentenced West to eight
months' hard labour.

John Nash, a deserter from the Coldstream
Guards, was indicted on Monday for feloniously
breaking and entering the warehouse of W. George
Watson, and stealing therein the sum of X 1 ls. 6d.
The prosecutor's premises are situate No. 34,
Narrow-street, Limehouse, and about 4 o'clock on
the morning of the 15th inst. the policeman on duty
saw that all was safe. In about half an hour, on
again completing his beat, he saw the prisoner and
another man leave the doorway, and subsequently
found that an entrance had been effected through
the countinghouse window. The next night the
prisoner was found asleep in a stable at the back of
the premises, from which, by means of a ladder, a
person could without much difficulty get up to the
countinghouse window. The prisoner said at first
that he was not out at four in the morning, but he

had let a horse out of the stable about that time,
having had a job of work at the stable. An iron
safe in the countinghouse had been removed from
its proper place, broken open, and a small sum of
money which had been left in it taken away. The
books were strewn about, and the clerk's desk had
been opened and robbed.
The prisoner said, whatever decision the jury
might come to, or whatever any one might think
of the evidence, he was innocent. It was true he
was a deserter from the Coldstream, and was found
in this stable, but it was for this reason—he had
been out, and while in a state of intoxication lost
his bearskin cap, value £4 155., and not liking to
return to barracks, absented himself, and slept in
this stable. He knew nothing of the robbery,
whatever might be done with him.
The jury, after some deliberation, said they: en-
tertained a doubt of which they would give the pri-
soner the benefit and acquit him.
Tho prisoner said, now it was all over, ho could
solemnly declare he was innocent, thought it did
not matter what he might say.
He was then discharged, but was immediately
taken into custody by the police as a deserter from
her Majesty's service.

THE MOORS AND FORESTS.

(From the Inverness Courier.)
" It is a most fortunate thing," says the Times,
" that there is such an epoch as the 12th of August
in our calendar. Had such a date been fixed by
authority for the closing of the session,lhere can
be no, doubt that it would have been used for the
most improper purposes by parliamet t try tacticians
on either side. As it is, it is a perfectly recognised
fact that the most thrilling oratory, the most tell-
ing parliamentary periods, have not a chance az,ainst
the cheery crowing of the grouse on the Scottish
moors. Everybody goes away just because every-
bedy wants to go away, and what is more, honour-
a%le members part friends. Tney
are not torn
asunder like street fighters by the rough grasp of
policemen. The mild influence of the grouse pre-
dominates. Even if it were possible to retain a
few piacemen, patriots, and cripples fora few dor
beyond the 12th of August; no man out of Bedlam
would dream of asking for their services after the
Ist of September. Here, then, is a period of the
year at which Englishmen will leave town, do wk t
you will. It would be impossible to fix an earlier
day, unless, indeed, the grouse and partridges could
be induced to breed earlier by resolution of the
house." •

The eventful " twelfth" happened on. Friday
and there is ample evidence in our streets that the
scAson has been exercising its powers.of dispersal
at St. Stephens. Equipages have been rattling
through the streets every hour this week, an°
ne...rly all the shooting-boxes in the Highlands are
now well filled. We give a list of the moors that
hdve been taken, and the names of the sportsmen.
It is the largest list, at the same date, since 1856'
Q. few choice moors are still in the market.
From the forests we learn that some good stag,s,
have been killed, and that the deer are •generaij
in good condition. The following are among the
successful stalks recorded since our last :—A stag
.at Monar, by Mr. Cloves ; one at Achany, by the
Hon: E. Jervis ; two at Aultnaharrow, fir'
Henry Akroyd ; and one at Gildermory, by Lor
Selkirk.

BLYTH AND TYNE.

The directors of this company state in their re-
port that the gross revenue for the half-year
amounted to 40,6161, out of which were deducted
working and other expenses, leaving a balance of
12,4711. out of which the directors proposed to pay
a dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum
on the original preference shares, 9 per cent. per
annum upon the ordinary and extension shares,
and 5 per cent. per annum upon the A and B pre-
ference shares, leaving a balance of 1,2571. to be
carried to the reserve fund. The directors had,
subject to the approval of the shareholders, entered
into an agreement for traffic arrangem nts with
the Warsbeck Valley Railway Company, the
North British Railway Company, the Bor ler Coun-
ties Railway Company, the Port Carlisle Dock and
Railway Company, and the Silloth Bay Railway
and Dock Company. A call of 31. a share upon
the extension shares, when paid, would make these
shares fully paid up. This additional capital
would be applied to the construction cf the Tyne-
mouth branch, and although it might prove un-
profitable, yet, under th© circumstances, the direc-
tors felt themselves bound to make it.

states that the increase in the gross receipts of the
line for the past six months was very encouraging ;
they amounted to £3,916 against £2,815 at the
corresponding period of 1858, showing an increase
of £1,071. Owing to the deduction of the addi-
tional 10 per cent. by the South-Eastern Company
for the maintenance of the line, there was not an
equivalent increase in the net profits. A balance,
however, remained of £1,388, out of which the
directors recommended a dividend at the rate of 3

per cent. per annum, free of income tax, leaving
£146. The expenses of the Croydon Extension of
1857-58, which was withdrawn, in reliance on the
good faith of the Brighton Company, in favour of
_ _

the arrangement for the construction of the Nor-
wood spur, were, by the terms cf the arrangement,
to be divided equally between the two companies.
One moiety of these charges had accordingly been
paid by this company, and was charged under the
head of Parliamentary expenses in the present ac-
counts. The capital account showed that £97,400
had been received and £96,836 expended, leaving
a balance of £564. The revenue account for the'
past half-year showed that 50 per cent. of the gross
traffic earnings amounted to £2,013 and the ex-
penses to £3OB, the interest on loans to £403, leav-
ing a balance as above of £1,302.
