SAILING MATCH.

Ann NOEL YACHT CLrn.—The first above-bridge sailing
match of the season took place yesterday, the distance being as
Usual from the Temple-gardens to Wandsworth-meadows and
bade: Since the establishment of this club, which is governed
by many of the gentlemen holding office in the Royal Thames
Theist CM; fresh regulations have taken place in other sailing
societies, acid belleVel with one exception only, it is the
only club that contends annually above bridge. The freshness
of the wind, the equality of the yachts entered, and the fineness
of the weather, combined to render the match both interesting
anti attractive. The prize was a very handsome silver cup and
coVcf, end the folloeing had been entered to contend:—
Briton, 7 tOtiii, kr, J. Gardner, blue—Ocean, 5 tons, Mr.
Rees, white over reds... Dauntless, 7 tons, Mr. T. Edwards,
blue with red cross—Hazard, (3 tons, Mr. Charles, red, white
dice -Rocket, 6 tons, Mr. Stanton, red over white.
The wind was W.N.W., and as much as the little fleet could
well stand under. At half-past three the Commodore, T.
lleWesj Erg., having taken his teat in the cutter, the signal was
given and they were off: The sailing up was such as to show
the powers of the boats tti a wind, and in a succession of boards
the scheme of sailing was developed teits utmost extent. The
Rocket had the weathermost station, but the Briton led the
We), top, the Hazard waiting close upon her, and the Ocean
thiffl. flit.; Briton held her way beautifully, gradually draw-
ing farther in arlyatite as the wind freshened, but falling off
when it became mote Calif!. The Briton first rounded the flag
boat tiff Wandsworth meadows, the Hazard about 200 yards
a stern of ht7r, and the Ocean a trifle more in the rear. The
light running work wag fo carne, and the Briton was gallantly
spanking before the wind, vvhdli they encountered an accident.
In lowering the sprit of the mizen td ran under Battersea-
bi ths boom of the Briton rested on the yoke of the red-
def ; the boat, of course, sheared, and her bowsprit took the
pile, and tore the bits out. The Hazard, in consequence of
this mishap, ran by het; but the captain of the Briton, having
spliced, went in pursuit, and, in the last board in Lambeth
Reach, nearly oveThaysleci her. The Hazard, however, cosi,
tinued the lead, and won the Match ; but in coming in the
&WU', bowsprit was close on he, mizen. It was won by a
second only. The n etch was very numerously attended.

MEDICAL CHARITIES (IRELAND.)
Lord MOUNTCASHEL rose to call the attention of
the House to a subject very short of breach of privilege.
He had moved for a return of certain papers, and those
papers had not been furnished to the House. Mr.
Phelan has refused to comply with their Lordship's
order to give a return of the answers which he had re-
ceived from 93 persons, to whom his letter, marked
private, was addressed. He made that refusal
with the sanction of the Poor-law Commission-
ers, from whom he obtained leave to insert in the

appendix to the returns made by their Lordships' order,
only fourteen letters which happened to be favourable to
the views of the Commissioners. The latter gentlemen,
assuming to themselves an " autocratic " power—(A
laugh, and cries of " Hear " from Lord Glengall)—and
defying their Lordships' orders, entered a minute on their
books, that " Mr. Phelan. might deposit in their office
copies of such letter as he thought he might publish
without breach of confidence, and that he might retain
the others in his possession until they should be again
called for."

[LEFT SPEAKING.]

bribery and corruption were practised at the last gene-
ral election for Members to represent the commons
of England in that House, which, if persevered in,
would subvert the Constitution and revolutionise the
country, and ttiereby destroy the happiness of the people.
The petitioners, therefore, prayed that the House would
take measures effectually to prevent the recurrence of
such

London, England, 1842-06-28

Sir JAMES GRAHAM said-he would refer to what
took place, and give an answer to-morrow. Hisbelief was

that lie did decline the interview.
THE CASE OF NELSON lIAGGETT.
Mr. lIAWES said that, with reference to the case of
Nelson Haggett, respecting whom 'he had addressed the
Noble Lord, he wished to know. if the Noble Lord had
any objection to lay the correspondence on the subject be-
fore the House, together with a copy of the Colonial Act
upon which the surrender of Nelson Haggett took place ?
Lord STANLEY said he did not apprehend that
there could be any objection.
CUSTOMS ACT—THE TARIFF.
Mr. LABOUCHERE wished to know whether the
Right Hon. Baronet could state to the House when the
Tariff Bill and the Report of the Customs Acts would be

brought up.
Sir H. PEEL said he should very much like to bring
them in at once, but he could not say when, owing to the
Poor-law Bill. It was of importance that the Bill should
be sent to the House of Lords. The House generallyssat
till an advanced period of the night, and he thought that
full attention could be given at that time ; and he thought
it would be better to proceed with the consideration of the
subject after twelve o'clock than at any other time. Con-
sidering the state of the public business, he hoped the
lion. Member (Mr. Brotherton) would forbear from his
usual custom, and throw,no difficulty.in the way. of the

proceedings.
After a few words from Mr. BROTHERTON, which
did not reach us,
• Mr. MILNER GIBSON submitted to the Right Hon.
Baronet, whether it would not be the better course to
take the Customs Bill first, as he would thus ensure the
Tariff passing without delay. Besides, it was most dis-
agreeable for Hon. Members, when discussing the Poor-
law Bill, to be told that by giving a dispassionate
and full discussion to that Bill, they were impeding the
progress of another Bill. Their arguments were thus in
a manner kept in duresse—under a sort of pressure. He
would, therefore, ask, whether it was not desirable to take
the Customs Bill first. He did not make this suggestion

from hostility to the New Poor-law. He was by no means
opposed to that measure ; at the same time, he thought it '
right to allow every facility for a full and dispassionate
discussion of it.
Sir R. PEEL said that when he had spoken of the
arrangement on Friday night, he was under an engage-
ment to the Noble Lord (Lord J. Russell) to bring on
the Bribery Bill to-morrow in preference to any other
business. He had understood from the Noble Lord that

they should go on with the Bribery Bill to-morrow pro
forma, and take the discussion at some future day—either
on Friday or Monday next. Under those cir-
cumstances, he would propose, whatever might
be the progress of the Poor-law Bill, that they
should begin with the completed Tariff to-morrow, and
then go on with the Poor-law Bill afterwards. If there
was no objection to this course, they would begin with
the Tariff to-morrow at half-past four o'clock.
After a few words from Air. T. DUNCOMBE and
Mr. LABOUCHERE, the conversation dropped.

THE ESTATE IS ALL FREEHOLD ;

THE MANSION AND GROUNDS ARE SO CLOSE
AS TO APPROXIMATE UPON MELKSHAM,

a market town of considerable repute in the vicinity of Devizes,
Bath. and Chippenham, surrounded for miles

BY ENTAILED PROPERTIES THAT CAN HARDLY

EVER COME INTO THE MARKET,
with. a railway station within four miles; thus
THE DISTANCE FROM LONDON IS EVERY DAY COM.

PLETED IN LESS THAN FOUR HOURS.

The mansion, called the Grove, is a building of the old school ;
the offices ara commensurate; the house is not too large, but it
mould be improved by a little good taste in decoration. It is
seated on a beautiful lawn, amid the splendid foliage of full.grown
timber and plantations.

The gardens are abundant, and it possesses
THE EXCLUSIVE RIGHT OF FISHING
IN THE RIVER AVON.

Its contiguity to Bath and the large intermediate towns, and a
vicinity as highly famed for respectability as any in England ;
and the Wilts and Berks Canal intersects the land. It will now
become necessary to recur to a most important feature in this
sale. It includes

THE CELEBRATED MELKSHAM SPA,
which is surrounded by about 100 acres of land, admirably
adapted for a building speculation on a large scale, and which in
the hands of an enterprising proprietor, might shortly become a
formidable rival to watering places of a similar character already
established. Also

SEVERAL FREEHOLD DAIRY FARMS,
that seem to stand alone for their superior quality; there is no-
thing in the vicinity that will aspire to a comparison; the quality
of the soil is proverbially first-rate—it is, in fact, unsurpassable..
IT IS EXEMPT FROM LAND TAX,

and the tithes are commuted at a very low rent ; it extends to
THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-FIVE ACRES,

bounded and occasionally refu#ied by the Avon, four miles from

THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY,
seven miles from Chippenham and Devizes, and about ten from
Bath.

THE WOODLAND SCENERY

of the neighbourhood gives a very imposing feature to the pro-
perty ; it is altogether an investment free from any alloy, and not
surpassable anywhere.

It can be viewed by particulars, which may be had at the Grove
Mansion ; also at the King's Arms, Melksham; the best Inns at
Devizes and Chippenham; White Hart, Bath; of Messrs. Bick.
nell, Roberts, Finch, and Neate, Solicitors, Lincoln's Inn-fields;
