COURT OF ARCHES.
(Before the Right Hon. Sir Robert Phillimore,
Dean of Arches.)

MARTIN V. MACHONOCHIE.-RITUALISM IN HOLBORN.

The argument in this suit was resumed this
morning. -

Mr. Stephen, Q.C., and Dr. Swabey appeared for
the promoter; and Mr. Prideaux, Q.C., and Dr.
Tristram for the defendant.

Mr. Prideaux said that he would, with regard to
the exposition of the reserved sacrament, refer his
lordship to a voluminous judgment of Lord Wens-
leydale as to the position of the sacrament on the
altar ; he also referred to a French work, which
treated fully of the holy eucharist, published in
1673, in which the exposition was fully laid, and
which with strong indignation stigmatiie.l
neglect of the ceremonials attending upon the ad-
ministration of the sacrament. His attention had
been called to the sth chapter of the 22.1 session of
the Council of Trent, and he contended that that
article referral to the rises and ceremonials of the
Church.

The Dean of Arches—What do you say to the
word ceremonix? Then under the word cere-
monix must be meant the act itself ?
Mr. Prideaux said he thought that the word was
used differently in the Prayer-book, and that ser-
vices themselves were not meant there by
it, but the ceremoniAls attending them. He
would now come to the question of ele-
vating the elements, and, as he wished the
defendant to have the advantage of the argument
of Dr. Tristram, he should be as brief as possible.
He contended that the article in the decree ac-
cusing Mr. Machonochie of this elevation went too
far, and that as he did not attach any peculiar
feeling to the elevating of the cup and the bread
it was a question for the bishop.

Mr. James said that it formed part of the decree
by mutual conseut.

Mr. Prideaux said he would then contend that
the cup or bread could not be lifted without an
elevation of the hands, and that it was in that man-
ner that it had been lifted by Mr. Machonochie,
and as part of the divine action, and without
any intention to carry it out as a ceremonial
of elevation, but he would also contend that
the elevation was not unlawful. It was for-
bidden in the Prayer-book, but the prohibition was
afterwards withdrawn. It was not expressly men-
tioned in the second Prayer-book ; but this was in
compliance with the Puritan spirit of the age, and
its withdrawal was to check a spirit of irreverence
which had sprung up.
The case had not concluded when we went to
press.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A SPECIAL CONSTABLE COMMITTED FOR ASSAULT-
ING A POLICE SERGEANT.—WaIter Brown, alias
Paul de Paris, described as an importer of foreign
goods, Cecil-court, St. Martin's-lane, was charged
before Mr. Knox with assaulting Police-sergeant
Leech, 17 C.
Leech said that about half-past 12 the previous
night he was called to Cecil-court, where he found
the prisoner, who had on only his shirt and trou-
sers, making use of disgusting language, and caus-
ing a great disturbance, and he was told that the
prisoner had been fighting. lie persuaded the pri-
soner to go home, and as soon as he got inside a
kind of shop he kept in the court, he gave him
(Sergeant Leech) a violent kick in the lower part
of the stomach. He then took the prisoner into
custody.
In answer to Mr. Knox, the sergeant said that
although he did not now feel any ill effects from the
kick, still he had been in pain all night. The pri-
soner was not sober.

The prisoner said he was very sorry for what he
had done. He had been drinking, and had no re-
collection of kicking the sergeant.
Mr. Knox, after remarking that the prisoner
might have killed the sergeant, asked whether the
prisoner had been at the Court before,
Leech said that he had for disorderly conduct,
and he was known by the name of Paul.
Sergeant Brady (acting inspector) said that re-
cently two boys were charged at the court with
begging in urinals, when it transpired that they
were employed by the prisoner to pull down the
bills of a rival in his trade.

drunk was no excuse for his kicking the sergeant
Mr. Knox said the fact of the prisoner getting
in such a way. The prisoner had inflicted an in-
jury on the sergeant which might have cripplel him
for life. The police must be protected, and he
should therefore commit the prisoner for a month
with hard labour.

It was stated in court that the prisoner is a
special constable.

THAMES.
REFRACTORY PAUPERS. —William Kew, alias
M'Kew, and John Jipson, alias Jiffson, paupers
chargeable to the City of London Union, were
brought before Mr. Paget charged, the former with
assaulting Mr. John Saunders, the master of the
City of London Workhouse in the Bow-road, and
the other with refusing to perform the task of work
assigned to him.

The prisoners were described by the master as
able- bodied paupers, which they certainly appeared
to be. They had been paupers since their birth,
and had been educated in the Union school. The
guardians had obtained situations for Kew, the
oldest prisoner, bought outfits for him, and other-
wise provided for him liberally five or six times, but
he had no sense of manhood about him; he preferred
the dependent life of a pauper instead of the in-
dependent station of an industrous labourer,
earning his own living. He had been frequently
insolent to the master and refractory. He had been
ordered to the stone-yard to work there, and he
came to the master this morning and asked to be
relieved, and to be put on the sick list. Saunders
said he could do nothing of the kind without the
order of the surgeon,
and directed him to return to
his work. He immediately struck Mr. Saunders a
severe blow on the eye, with his clenched fist, and
knocked him backwards.

The prisoner made a long address to the ma-
gistrate, and said he bad been convicted of felony
and sentenced to six months' imprisonment and
hard labour, and was treated like a felon in the
workhouse. He had been to that court two days in
succession in " former pauper house" for sum-
monses, and because he had not 2s. in his pos-
session the summonses were not granted. He was
treated most infamously. IL was a suitor in
and justice was denied

Mr. Paget sentenced the prisoner to two months'
imprisonment and hard labour.
Mr. Saunders—The only piece of truth in the
prisoner's statement is that he was sentenced to six
mouths' imprisonment for felony. lie has been
treated most indulgently.

The case against Jipson was then gone into. He

the superintendent of labour, ordered the prisoner
to pick 41bs. of oakum, and was put into the yard
to execute his task. The prisoner refused to do
any. The oakum was not picked in the evening.
Mr. Paget thought 41bs. of oakum was a large
quantity.
Mr. Saunders said he could have imprisoned the
prisoner for 24 hours, but he proposed to punish

The Governor of the Wigan Workhouse, where
a child was recently scalded to death by an idiot nurse,
has been called upon to resign the office which he holde,

COOKED FOOD FOR THE PEOPLE.

At a meeting of the members of the Society of Arts,
Mr. William Riddle, civil engineer, read " The details of
a project for the preparation and distribution of hot food,
by deli Very service, at the homes of the people in cities
and towns." Mr. Riddle, in bringing forward the details
on the present occasion, proposed to raise a capital of
£7,000, to hire a plot of ground, and place on it a
building of iron and glass, 160 feet long by 40 feet
deep, in sixteen squares of 20 by 20 feet each, and
about 18 feet high, with louvre ventilators. The build-
ing should be of interchangeable parts, a plain, cheap
rectangular, probably ridge and furrow-roofed structure,
like a section of the Crystal Palace of 1851. This building
would cost, he had been told, from £1,500 to £1,800; and
the district he proposed to work in the first instance was
Islington and its neighbourhood. The reader went on to
say that one great object he had in view was to shew that
in such families there was an enormous amount of waste
which might he avoided, and his desire was to remedy this
evil by ccoking plain food on a large
scale by a fucl-
saving apparatus. With such apparatus, they would b
enabled to roast, boil, or bake meat, vegetables, and
puddings of a plain description, to have the meat carved
from the joints by skilful carvers, to have it weighed by
assistants, and then placed, with gravy, in tin cases
or in covered cylindrical jars. These jars were at once
to be placed hot in japanned iron cases, or cupboards,
mounted on a tramway in a room. These cases to be
four or five feet square, and about two feet six inches
high and each to form the seoarate interior of a cart,
about the size of a parcels delivery cart. The s chicle
being thus loaded, and closed behind by a panel, in
which there would be as many doors as compartments
of jars, would then be driven off to deliver the goods.
The remains of provisions might be sold to the soup-
kitchens of the poor ; and it was believed that if thisi
undertaking were carried out in a respectable manner,
and on a sufficient scale, great public economy of fuel and
food would he the resuit. But if time were money, there'
would be a saving in thousands of households for the
better education, nursing, or general care of , children.
The reader went on to urge, in favour of his project,
that the Glasgow system had proved a paying system, and
that if Mr. Corbett,. the'promoter of that undertaking,
could give, as he said, a gbod dinner for 4c1., it was only
seasonable to believe that he (Mr. Riddle) could supply
a similar benefit, superior in character, for Bd.—the meal
consisting of meat, potatoes, greens, pudding, all of the
b?st quality, and thoroughly hot. He saw no reason
why eventually soup should not be provided for the
poor and &livered in the poorest districts in common
earthen jars carried in carts ; and the system of what
he denominated (perhaps erroneously) a " civil corn.
missariat " might extend upwards, so that at one half
the prices charged by the great purveyors known in
London, elaborate dishes of French or other cookery
might find a large sale—the demand arising from the re-
duction of price and the public becoming used to the system.
The paper was listened to with much attention, and in tho
course of the brief discussion which ensued an opinion
appeared to prevail that, while there could be no doubt
about the feasibility and expediency of providing food for
the people, a difficulty suggested itself in regard to the
means of conveying cooked food to their homes under
sudh circumstances as would ensure the timely attendance
Of some one to receive it. This difficulty might not apply
(to cases where a large number of persons engaged in a
manufactory were in the habit of dining together at a
regular period, but under an ordinary condition of things
the system might prove to be less practicable than was
now supposed. The cordial thanks of the meeting were,
however, due to Mr. Riddle for the interesting and
instructive paper he had read, and a vote to this effect
having been unanimously agreed to, the meeting sepa-
rated.

The Italian Government, it is rumoured, has agreed, in
spite of its former decision to the contrary, to go on paying
its share of the interest of the Pontifical debt. It is
further reported that the emission of an Italian loan in
Paris has been consented to by the French Government.

Munich, Stuttgart, and Carisruhe have received invita-
tions from Berlin to send delegates to deliberate on the/
foundation of the new postal treaty with Switzerlo n 1.
The Norwegian Government, having opened negotia,.is
for a new postal treaty, has sent Herr Rye as a delegate to
Berlin.

The authorities of Liverpool have received the formal
thanks of her Majesty for " the enthusiastic and magnifi-
cent reception " they gave to Prince Arthur and Prince
and Princess Christian. Her Majesty sees in the welcome
" the most satisfactory and gratifying proof of the loyal
attachment of the people of Liverpool to herself and her
family."
The disturbances which took place in Portugal on the
publication of the proposal for a new law to regulate the
duties on meat, rice, oil, and fermented drinks throughout
the kingdom, by depriving the municipal councils and all
the local authorities of the power of imposing taxes on
these provisions, and vesting it in the Government, were
of a very Serious character; The deputation, headed by
the chief member of the Opposition in the Upper House,
appointed to wait upon the King, was refused admission
to the palace. Murmurs gave place to active resistance.
Ultimately the guard charged, and many were severely
wounded. The Chamber of Commerce at Oporto called a
large meeting, at which resolutions were passed pledging
those present to the closing of their shops and the evasion
of the law by every possible means, even to the suspension
of all commercial operations ; and similar resolutions were
adopted at Minho. The Chamber met and the Ministers
resigned, but though petitions were sent in from all parfs
of the country, the bill was carried. It is supposed, how-
ever, that it will be considerably modified under the new
Ministry formed by the Count D'Avila.

The Brussels correspondent of the Morning Post fur-
nishes an account of the first meeting of the Belgian
Chamber of Representatives, when official explanations of
the recent transformation of the Ministry were given.
For the action taken three reasons had been assigned.
First, the answer to be given to the French invitation for
Belgium to attend the Conference ; secondly, the unwil-
lingness of M. Frere, when Minister of Finance, to
furnish funds to the Minister of War for completing the
fortifications of Antwerp ; and, thirdly, a disagreement
regarding the new schools for adults, somewhat resembling
the night schools in England. The first may be dis-
missed at once, for the Prime Minister distinctly
declared that the late Cabinet bad unanimously
agreed that Belgium ought, under certain contingencies,
to be represented at the Conference. As to the second,
the retirement of the Minister of War was caused simply
by the rest of the Cabinet agreeing to certain modifications
proposed by the central section of the House in the Go-
vernment project for reorganising the army, to which he
could not accede. The third point was the one which
actually broke up the Cabinet. M. Vandenp2ereboom
the late Minister of the Interior, had wish( d the adult
schools to be placed under the working of the law of 1842,
by which the co-operation of the clergy is obtained under
certain conditions. He made proposals to this effect to
the late Archbishop of Malines, which were partially ac-
cepted by him and the Bishop of Tournay, but to which no
reply was returned by the other Belgian bishops. How-
eyer, on the archbishop urging further conditions which
were found inadmissible, the negotiations between Church
and State dropped, and the rest of the Cabinet resolved to
organise the new adult schools out of the pale of the law
of 1842. To this MM. Vandenpeereboom and Ropier de-
murred, and the crisis came.

THE RIVERS POLLUTION COMMISSION.—DISPUTE
AMONGST THE COMMISSIONERS.—At the adjourned inquiry
held in Liverpool, Mr. Rawlinson, the chairman of the
commissioners, protested with great warmth against the
line of examination upon sanitary questions which had
been pursued on the previous day by Mr. Harrison,
one of the commissioners. lie accused Mr. I larrison of
ignorance, of " badgering " the witnesses, and said that
he would not enter another town with him, but would at
the close of the Liverpool inquiry resign his commission into
the hands of the Government. Mr. Harrison retorted that he
had done no more than his duty, and that the questions
which he had asked were within the scope of the inquiry.
At a later period Mr. Harrison was questioning a witness
upon some sanitary points, when he was abruptly stopped
by Mr. Rawlinson, and during the remainder of the sitting
Mr. Harrison was silent. At the close of the inquiry Mr.
Rawlinson said that it had been arranged to hold an
inquiry at Birkenhead next day, but he should certainly
not proceed with any more business of the commission
until he had seen the Secretary of State for the Home
Department.

LECTURES TO WORKING MEN. —Mr. T. Hughes,
M.P., in inaugurating a series of lectures on history, poli-
tics, and religion, to be delivered by the Rev. H. Solly, at
the Cambridge Hall, Newman-street, Oxford-street, for
the benefit especially of working men, said he considered
that working men required such lectures more than any
other class. The lecture for that night, " The Poli-
tical and Social History of the Roman Republic,"
was well chosen, as probably the history of no other
country, unless it was Greece, could better illustrate
our own than that of ancient Rome. The Romans were
distinguished especially for that sort of tenacity which con-
stituted a strong feature in the British character. With
regard to religious history, the estrangement from its.
consideration by working men had been a matter of deep
concern to him and others who had the welfare of their
country at heart. Religious questions could not be slighted
without very serious injury to the foundations of both
religion and politics, upon the soundness of which depends,
sooner or later, the prosperity of nations. The attendance
gave gratifying promise that Bir. Solly'e object will be
fully secured.

READING STEEPLECHASES.
WEDNESDAY.

The racing to-day was a decided improvement upon that
of yesterday, and there were more people present to witness
it. A large quantity of rain had fallen during the night,
and just before the commencement of the racing there was
a perfect downpour of rain and hail, which filled yester-
day's "gripe," rendering the course bad going. Fortu-
nately within the ring plenty of straw had been laid down
or the visitors would have been obliged to stand ankle-deep
in mud. For the first race, a Selling Steeplechase, there
were four runners, but the finish was left to a couple, the
favourite winning easily. An objection was lodged against
her for having gone the wrong side of the post, but in the
face of the contradictory evidence the stewards could not
do otherwise than decline to interfere with the judge's de-
cision. The Guide, who was a good favourite, won the
Innkeepers' Plate; Spatchcock, his stable compinion,
alone of other three runners passing the pos►t. The race of
the meeting was the Berkshire Open Steeplechase, which
produced eight runners from the 10 who accepted. The
absentees were Garus and Captain Crosstree. About
the non-starting of the latter great dissatisfaction was
expressed, as the horse had arrived, and had been
backed at the lists. Lawrence, as soon as the numbers
were hoisted, because a warm favourite at 7to 4. Alarengo
and Fernberouglt were the most fancied of the others,
and backed at 4to 1 each. The race was prolific of disas-
ters, only four of the eight runners passing the post. 'r he
Cripple fell the first time round, and Farnborough, when
going very well, came down at the same jump on reach-
ing it for the second time. Beth were severely injured,
and were afterwards shot on the course. Lawrence
fenced brilliantly, and had the race his own way nearly
all the distance, ultimately winning by 150 yards. The
last event on the card produced the most exciting finish
of the day, and an outsider bowled over a great favou-
rite by a short head. Details of the day's sport are ap-
pended :
A Selling Steeplechase of 3 sovs each, with 20 added ; four
year olds llst4lb, five 12st-51t, six and aged 12st 101 b ;

Betting-6 to 4 agst Warwick Lass, 2to 1 (at first 6to
4) agst Redwing, and sto 2 agst Balloon. Warwick Lass
made the whole of the running, and won very easily by
three lengths. Balloon ran out before reaching the farm-
house, and lost so much ground that Mr. Hobson pulled
him up at the stand. Over-the-Sea refused the fence at
the top of the hill after about a mile of the journey had
been covered. On returning to scale, J. Land, the rider of
Redwing, objected to the winner on the ground of having
gone on the wrong side of a post. The stewards imme-
diately entertained the caso, and visited the spot in the
meadows where the digression was alleged to have oc-
curred. The evidence not being conclusive, they con-
firmed the judge's decision. The winner was sold to
Capt. Reeve for 55gs.
The Innkeepers' Plate (handicap) of 40 soya ; winners

nion the favourite, made the running, The Guide follow-
ing, attended by Puebla and LeWillows, Portfire bringing
up the rear. After clearing the gorsed hurdles Le Wil-
lows ran up to The Guide, but on landing the farm-house
fence he ran out and was not further persevered with,
Puebla cleared the brook just in the rear of Spatchcock,
whom he headed at the stand and showed the way to
the top of the hill. Here he dropped back, and Spatch-
cock was again left in front, Portfire following in the
rear of The Guide and Puebla. The last-mentioned blun-
dered and fell at the fence leading into the stubble field,
and was not further persevered with. In the field Portfire
stuck in a " grip," threw his ridor, and bolted across the
country. The race was now left to Mr. Ellison's pair, and
The Guide taking up the running at the gorged hurdle;
and cantering leisurely home, won by a field.

The Berkshire Open Steeplechase of 10 sovs each, with

and Farnborough, 7 to 1 agst Arlescott, 10 to 1 agst Water-
perry, and 100 to 8 each agst The Cripple and Snowstorm.
After a couple of breaks away the lot were despatched,
Marengo cutting out the work, followed by the favourite
over the farm-house fence. The water-jump was taken
by the pair mentioned almost abreast of each other, Snow-
storm, Waterperry, and The Cripple following them. Be-
fore reaching the stand Arlescott took the place of Ma-
rengo, the leading division taking close order, Lawrence,
however, having a slight lead of the lot named; Fara-
.borough, Integer), and Marengo coming next, separated at
intervals of about a couple of lengths. This order was
maintained till going up the hill-side, when The Cripple
was indulged with the lead ; Snowstorm, who headed
Lawrence, going on next, and Imogen fourth. In
the middle of the field preceding the stubble, Snow-
storm ran out of the track, and took with him Arlescott
and Imogen, but the trio were soon righted and went on
in pursuit of the leaders and in advance of Farnborough.
The Cripple held a clear lead as they went through the
stubble, but at the fence leading out of it she came down
heavily. The accident left Lawrence with a clear lead of
his horses, Waterperry running second, fully 50 yards in
advance of Farnborough, Arlescott, Imogen, and Ma-
rengo being in the rear of the last named; but Snow-
storm was so far in the rear that his rider, deeming
perseverance useless, pulled up. Passing the stand the
second time Lawrence had a clear lead of Waterperry,
several lengths off following Farnborough, Imogen,
Arlescott, and Marengo. The latter was pumped out,
and Mr. Hobson, finding that he had no chance, pulled
up and walked the horse back to the paddock. Water-
perry and Imogen followed the favourite up the hill, Farn-
borough being a long way in the rear, and so much ex -
hausted that on reaching the fence out of the stubble—the
same at which The Cripple previously fell—he came down
and broke his back. Waterperry was in difficulties be-
fore he reached the gorsed hurdles, and Imogen took
second place, Arlescott being now a long way in the rear.
Lawrence retained his advantage to the end, winning in a
canter by a hundred and fifty yards. Imogen fell at the
brook, and rolled completely over her jockey, who, how-
ever, remounted and finished second. Waterperry cantered
in a bad third, and Arlescott alone of the others passed
the post. Both The Cripple and Farnborough were found
to be so severely injured that they had to be destroyed on
the course.

A Handicap Selling Steeplechase of 3 sous each, with 25

added; the winner to be sold for 40 sous; abut two

Patience, Sinite and Feigie bringing up the rear. In this
order they passed the stand, but at the succeeding fence
Patience ran out, and lost so much ground that Mr. Hobson
soon afterwards pulled her up. Arlescott retained the lead
until fairly in the stubble field, when he was beaten and
stopped. Sir William was now left with the lead, and

" Gent/ mum —Having
used, and witnessed the beneficial
effects of your Pain Killer, I take great pleasure in recom-
mending it to the public as the best family medicine I eves
knew. In this establishment are employed nearly one
hundred persons, and your Pain Killer has been used with
the most astonishing results. For four years not a single
case of colic, summer complaint, or dysentery hasoccurred
here that has not yielded to its magic-like curative powers;

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Before the Lord Chief Justice and Mr. Justice

Blackburn and Mr. Justice Lush.)
This afternoon Mr. Stephens, in the absence of
Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., moved for a decree nisi to
show cause why the three alleged Fenian prisoners
—Burke, commonly known as " Colonel" Burke,
Casey, and Mullady—should not be bronght on a
writ of certiorari from Warwick Gaol, where they
had been conveyed on their committal by Sir Thos.
Henry, at the Bow-street 'Police-court, to the
Warwick Spring Assizes, and tried at the Central
Criminal Court in London. The learned gentle-
man stated that it would be remembered that the
former application had been postponed, in order
that the Attorney-General might be consulted.
Ile had had a private conversation with Sir John
Karslake, who was now in court, and he had stated
that he should have no objection if the whole of the
pzisoners were included in the certiorari, but that
he left the matter entirely in the hands of their
lordships themselves. It would, after this, be use-
less to repeat the arguments which had been used
in favour of granting the rule ; but he might men-
tion that by this course one of the strongest objec-
tions, that of the separation of the prisoners for
trial, would be done away with.
.The Lord Chief Justice stated that if it were in
the hands of the court they should grant the rule.
A rule nisi was accordingly granted in favour of
all the prisoners.
