NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, MAY 6, 1869.—TRIPLE SHEET. ENGLAND. wee ‘The Case of the Mayor of Cork Before Par- eas en =P , May 5, 1860. In the House of Commons this evening Mr. Sulli- van, the Attorney General for Ireland, moved for leave to bring in a bill to disable the present Mayor of the city of Cork from acung a8 a magistrate, Mr. Sullivan proceeded to give the reasons for the intro- duction of the bill. He gave a history of the disloyal conduct of the Mayor up to its culmination in the in- flammatory language used at the dinner recently given in Cork to Warren and Costello, and said that after much consideration the government had come to the conclusion that the present step was advisable. Several members deprecated the course of the gov- ernment as @ stretch of constitutional power, an ordinary action at law being open to it for a remedy. Sir John Gray, member for Kilkenny, and Mr. Maguire, member for Cork, urged the necessity of giving the Mayor full opportunity for meeting the charges made against him. They complained that the action of the government was based only on newspaper reports. Mr. Disraeli deprecated as imprudent the release of the Fentan prisoners. If action for seditious language had been taken earlier the present step would not have become necessary. He would not oppose the introduction of the bill, but urged the House to consider well the step proposed and the constitutional questions involved. Mr. Fortescue, Chief Secretary for Ireland, as- sured the House that every facility would be given the Mayor and his friends to reply. The govern- ment would take care not to give any ground for complaints of injustice im the management of Irish affairs. He intimated that they intended to propose the appointment of a commission to investigate the conduct of the police in the late disturbance at Londonderry. After further remarks from-Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Gathorne Hardy, in support of the measure, leave to introduce the bill was granted, and it was read for the first time. It was ordered that a copy of the bill and a notice of its second reading be served on the Mayor of Cork.

A message was recelved from the Governor yeto- ing the bill to incorporate the Oswego Pier and Dock Company. He objects that the bill gives the entire water front of the city, except a limited portion be- tween the present piers, to the exclusive ownership of private corporations, and apparently for its ex- clusive use. The extent of shore thus transferred is said to be at least two miles. The object and pur- pose for which the company is created is nowhere expressly defined, nor in change for the great privi- leges conferred, are any duties to the public en- jomed. ‘The company, under this bill, may do almost anything, but are not required to do any- thing. They may take lands on the shore and under water, fill up buried piers, docks, wharves, and lay railroad tracks, ‘The bill is silent as to giving the use thereof to the pubitc on any terms. The authori- tles of Oswego are given no power, no control over the changes to be made in its water front, except that improvements are to be made in connection with the present harbor of Oswego in such manner as the directors shall determine best calculated to pro- mote their interest, sunject, however, to the ap- proval of the same by the city authorities. If the real Loa of the company be for the improvement of the harbor of Oswego, fox public benefit, the city authorities should have #1e controlling voice. If the object be pene for private gain, then the pro- posed transfer of lands along the shore trom the present owners, without their consent, would, ac- cording to Judicial decisions, be taking private prop- erty for private and not public uses. The charter is perpetual, and it 1s not subject to modification or repeal. The bili would clothe the corporation with extraordinary powers, no corresponding obligation belng imposed, and subject to no future legisiative controi. ‘On motion of Mr. MaTroon the bill was tablea. THE SUPPLY BILI coming toa third reading, numerous motions were made to recommit and amend the bil, A aong the amendments adopted was ove giving $2,500 to the New York Poultry Association.

It was a match for $1,000, mile heats, to go as they pleased, at catch weights, between Mr. Brooks’ bay mare Eva and Mr. Christian's brown gelding Colonel Roberts, ‘The mare won in three straight heats, two of which she won handy, but mm the third she was in extreme difficulties towards the finish, and it was as much s she could do to reach the score in advance. Had the race been a protracted one she would in all probability have lost it, as it was very apparent, in her exhausted condition, that she could not have gone through another heat with any hope of success. The horse is a brown Hamble- tonian, but by no means a Dexter; neither is there & likelihood of his ever becoming one, He seems to be @ self-willed and unmanageable horse, and in yester- day’s race evificed a strong inclination to show bis running ability in preference to displaying his trot- ting action. There have been very few saddle races of late years, and none worthy of note except those between General Butler and George M. Patchen, General But- ler and Rockingham, Dexter and Stonewall Jackson and a few others, One reason for this rarity is that. we have so few competent riders, our trainers now- adays rather preferring their ease ina sulky to a laborious seat on the pigskin.

Inauguration of Alpha Lodge. Last evening there was a very selest assemblage of ladies and gentlemen present upon’ the occasion of the public installation of oflicers and imauguration ot the new lodge room of the Good Templars of Alpha Lodge, at Commonwealth Halt, Washington street, Brooklyn. The ‘ceremonies were commenced by receiving the Grand Officers and were followed by the installation of the foliowing named officers for the ensuing uarter:—W. C. ., Janes Failey; W. V.T., Mrs. J. C. Fatley; Secretary, J. T. H. W. Brown: Financtal Secretary, Russell; Treasurer, F. R. Jasehke; Chaplain, Rev, John Russell L. Carpenter; J. G., Miss P. A. Russell; 0. Hi. Fisher; Assistant Secretary, W. #. Rus a Mrs. W. H. Russell; R. S., Mrs. E. L. Carpenter; L. 8., R. A. Hemmingway. The inaugural aditress then followed, and formed the most entertaining feature of the ceremonies, giving a series of intercstitng sta- tistical statements on the sale of liquor and the baneful influence thereof in tha United States, It was stated that there were 8,000 temperance fodges in Nortn America, with an aggregate membership of 750,000. Alpha Lodge was organized only four- teen months ago, and now numbers 115 persons. ‘There was a song by the Croton Glee Club and re- marks by Police Captain Joseph H, Petty, whose rank in tne order is that of D. D. G. W. C. T., and C. D. John H. Taylor. The members were urged to proceed with the good work of adding to their ranks and promoting the cause of temperance. of former times, the Whelans, the Woodruffs, the Spicers and many others whose memories are al- ways green in the sporting world, have passed into another sphere of action or have retired, full of years and of honors, from that turf on which their achievements shed so much lustre, At the period we allude to, in the days of these great riders, most of the trotting was done under the saddle, Many of the greatest achievements of the trotting horse were accom aban in that way, as will be seen when we call to mind the great trots of Topgallant, Whalebone, Victory, Screwuriver, Andrew Jackson, Ned Forrest and Sally Milier, together with Dutch- man and Rattler, Dutchman against time, Mac and ‘Taconey, Lady Suffolk and a host of other notapilt- ties. Saddie races were immensely popular at one time and very attractive, as the spectators had not only an opportunity of seemg fhe speed of the horses, but also” of appreciating the skill of the gockere. We were of opinion that we had many fine and speedy saddie horses among us until the purses of the Prospect Park Fair were offered. Among those purses was one for horses to go under the sadale, which did not fill, the only entries bei: Rapid and Lucy. Still there may be numbers ot speedy sadule horses, but as they are not trained to go in that specialty on the track the owners are un- willing to enter them for competition. A In relation to the trot of yesterday we may observe that the track was in fine order, the weather most favorable and the attendance quite as good as there was reason to expect. ‘The betting was very brisk previous to the race and presented several remarkable phases before it was over.

The horses came up head and head at a rapid rate and left the judges’ stand together. Before getting into the turn the mare broke up and the gelding took a head of nearly two lengths. The mare soon settled, gained rapidly, and at the quarter pole was neck and neck with the gelding. Time, forty-one and a half sec- onds. The mare then showed in front and opened agap of three lengths down the backstretch, the gelding becoming very much entangiea, aad hoboling along, kept falling further in the rear, The hali- mile pole was passed in 1:20. Going around the lower turn the gelding broke up and the mare led him six lengths atthe three-quarter pole, Up the homestretch the geldingcame bouncing along at @ very questionable galt, and was beaten to the score by eight lengths.

A Cards trotted very fast, and got away still farther from the gelding, when nis rider put spurs to him, and, send- lug hum into arun, did not try to stop hun until he was head and head with the mare at the half-mile pole. The time to that point was 1:17. By the time the gelding had steadied himself into a trot again the mare was six tengths away from lium, which she increased to eight at the three-quarter pole. and, not- withstanding that the gelding was indulged in an- other long run up the homestretch, the mare crossed the score a@ winner by about eight lengths, making tho heat in 2:40. The judges paid no attention to the running of the gelding, saying that the mare won so easily that it was no use noticing what the gelding had been made to do. Judges should be more strict with riders or drivers, and shonld always punish them when they violate the rules; if not they will go on from bad to worse, until the trotting track will be abandoned by all lovers of tair play.

The gelding was hobbling along at the same questionable gait that he had previously been going, but he was gaining on her rapidly. When the mare got to within fifty yards of the stand she broke up, tae accident being a relief to her, and Murphy, gathering her together quickiy, went over the score a little over a length ahead of the gelding. The time of the heat was 2:45. When Murphy dis- mounted he said that he never had been in such a tight place before, and that if the mare had not broken up she would have been beaten to a cer- tainty, and that she could not have trotted another heat under any circumstances.
