BILL.

Sir T. GRAHAM said that there were many provi-
sions of the Superior Courts Bill, introduced by the Hon.
and Learned Gentleman the Member for Chester, which
were far from interfering with the County Courts Bill,
but would, on the contrary, assist its objects and opera-
tion. He, therefore, would suggest that the Hon. and
Learned Gentleman should not press the second reading
of this Bill, but would allow the County Courts Bill to
go through Committee pro forma, with a view to recon-
cile the two Bills in Committee. He should aiso wish
that the compensation clause should be brought up, and
the report received.
_ _

Mr. JARVIS had no objection to the course prOposed.
Mr. WATSON wished to call the attention of the
Government to the necessity of having barristers of
station and character to preside over quarter sessions.
Such appointments would greatly relieve the business at
the assizes, and tend to the diminution of the county
rates.

After a few words from Mr. W. Ellis, Sir J. Graham,
and Mr. Hawes, the Bill was read a secoud time.

IRISH REGISTRATION BILL. v
In answer to question by Lord J. RUSSELL, •
Sir R. PEEL stated that he did not propose to bring
on the Irish Registration Bill before the 6th of May.
The House then went into Committee, on the County
Courts Bill, which went through Committee pro forma.
The report to be brought up on Monday next.
The Superior Courts Common-law Bill was then read
a second time, which was ordered to be brought up on
Wednesday week.
CLERK OF TILE CROWN.

The report on the Committee of Supply was then
about to be brought up, when
Mr. BARING wished to know whether or not it was
true that the Clerk of the Crown was about to be salaried
out of the House of Lords ?
Sir R. PEEL said the affair had not come under the
consideration of the Treasury, and, therefore, he could
not give a direct answer.
Lord J. RUSSELL repeated the question. Surely
the Right Hon. Gentleman at the head of the Govern-
ment must know that an address had been presented on
the subject by the House of Lords to the Throne ?
Sir R. PEEL must repeat, that the matter had not
come under the consideration of the Treasury. He
must own he had heard of it, but he could not at pre-
sent give a definite answer on the subject.
Lord J. RUSSELL wished to explain, in reply to
some observations of the Noble Lord (Stanley), regard-
ing the appointment of the Bishop of New Zealand, that
he had not pledged the House in any way to the subject.
After a few words from Lord STANLEY,
The Bailiffs of Inferior Courts Bill went through
Committee.—Report this day.

VESTRIES.
Mr. S. O'BRIEN rose to ask leave to bring in a Bill
to prohibit the holding of vestries in churches. •
Mr. HAWES objected to bringing in a Bill of such
importance, and which would entail considerable ex-
pense on many parishes, at that late hour, which pre-
cluded the possibility of discussing its provisions.
Mr. S. O'BRIEN said the Bill was not the same as
that of last year.
Sir R. PEEL said there were many cases in which
Bills were allowed to be introduced without entering
into a statement, and he did not see any objection
against such a course being allowed in the present case.
He should reserve to himself the right of acting as ho
thought proper when the Bill was read a second time.

On the motion of Mr. S. O'BRIEN the Bill was then
brought in and read a first time.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of,
and the House adjourned at a Quarter-past Twelve.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEETING, 1844.
NEWMARKET, MONDAY EVENING, 5 P.M.

The company in the town has considerably increased since
our last, and as the weather continues fine, and the anxiety
to see the first favourite for the Derby is, if possible, greater
than ever, we may look for the largest attendance to-morrow
that, has been seen at Newmarket since the Crucifix year.
Great numbers were on the heath this morning to see the
two cracks; both were out and looking the " perfection of
racing" trim. The Ugly Buck, who made his appearance
about six o'clock, was for nearly three hours the " observed
of all observers," and it will be satisfactory to' his
absent admirers to hear, that however lazy and
." pot-
tering " in his walk, his action when gallopping is,
by the majority of critics, pronounced to be un-
exceptionable ; that he merits the character given
him of being "the best horse ever trained at Danebury," re-
mains to be proved—that the field he will meet to-morrow is
good enough to extend a horse of such formidable pretensions
may be doubted. Meanwhile betting on the Derby pro-
gresses languidly ; 5 to 2 is taken about the Ugly Buck, 17
to 1 each. about Campanero and Leander, 25 to 1 about Bay
Momus, and 1,000 to 15 freely about Elemi. For the' 2,000
Guineas Stakes 3to 1 goes current on the Ugly Buck, and
only 3to 1 offered against his winning both events. The
late hour at which the races terminated must be our excuse
for deferring a list of the fashionable arrivals 'until a more
favourable opportunity. Of the sport we subjoin the usual
details :

Betting-11 to 10 agst Brewer ; 3 to 1 agst Prosody ; and
7to 2 agst Czar. Nearly all the running was made by An-
tidote, The Brewer lying at his quarters from the ditch, and
getting to his head at the Duke's Stand. The Brewer then
took the load from Antidote, kept it to the chair, and won
cleverly by a length. Czar and Prosody were pulled up be-
fore they entered the cords.

pace, and at the cords had the best of it; but, thanks to
whipcord, was caught just in time for the judge to pronounce
it a dead heat. The Velocipede colt having broke down
after the dead heat, was drawn, and Claude Frollo walked
over.
