Bedford, on the body of William N ~awa, aged 4s, who wee killed by the falling of a newly cornice at No. li, Great l'unilierlandetreet. Evidence was given showing that the heavy rain had caused the cornice to fail out epos' the veaffold bomb, that the cornice was not ealliciat4 hammed to hold its plan, without cement, and that the scaffold wee perfectly well formed, but was broken down by the weight of the cornice when it fell, in addition to the weight of various heavy materials placed ore the scaffold boards. The de..-eased was at "piece wor k , an d it was at his own request that so much material was on the scaffold siege. The verdict was " Maids@ Lath," the jury stating that, in their opinion, the widest had mime through the work being dose in the wet weather. They also recommended that all builders, w h en engaged in repairing the interior of houses with area railing% should well board over the spikes. A subscription on behalf of the family, eight in somber, of the unfortunate man has been opened, Sir De Lev Evans, owner of the hew, having beaded it by a donation of OW., and bk. Nava NIL LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JULY 15, 1861. THE BUILDERS' STRIKE: TO THE WITOR OF THE EXPRF.S.s. Sta,—Some weeks since it came to the know ledge of the undersigned that the men engaged in the building trades complained bitterly that they could not get a hearing for their case as to the questions now at issue between thew and the mas ter builders, that the true facts of the dispute had been distorted, and that no notice is taken by the leading journals of their meetings, and of the statements and documents to which they appeal. They complain that their cause is not only con demned, but stifled. Whether there be ground for this complaint or not, we have taken pains to sift the men's state ments ; we think it right to do what we can to met them a fair hearing and to put their case ou tts real merits. We have convinced ourselves of the following facia : In the first place, the present movement on behalf of the men is not for what is termed "the nine hours system." The demand of the masons (the only trade generally on strike) is simply for ten hours' work for the brat five dap of the week, and foe • half holiday after five and a half hours' work on Saturday. In the next place, there is little or no question of money in disp ute. The masters offer • rate of payment per boar which will• give for 504 hdurs per week the same wages (33e.) which the men demand for 5& hours. The real question is whether a change shall be nude from the old system of hiring by the day to the system proposed by the masters of hiring by the hour. ft has been attempted to be shown on behalf of the masters that this change will not in jure the men, will leave wages as they were, and will only allow to each man freedom to work as many or as few hours as he pleases. Against this the men allege : 1. That the change will lead to the extension of the hours of labour, and make any future reduction of them impoesible. The masters desire long hours, the men short ; the men feel that the present day (ten hours of actual labour, involving twelve or thirteen of ab sence from home) is long enough, if not too long. Their experience is that a fi xed day of ten hours, corporate action, and frequent united remonstrance on their part, are means barely sufficient to prevent masters from extending labour beyond ten hours per diem, and are the necessary basis for any future effort on their part for any further reduction. It ' is felt that under the hour system, when the master will treat individually with each man and will be ' checked by no recognised standard, he will be able at his discretion to prolong the hours indefinitely, and that so far from each man being free to work as many or as few hours as he pleases all will be obliged to work the long hours. In support of this view they appeal to the results already exhibited by the hour system where it has been introduced ; more than one of the masters who are enforcing the hour system have plainly told the men that they will not employ men who will only work nine. In many mass the men are systematically working twelve hours, and even more hours, per diem. Of course we assume here that the number of hours of labour, like the rate of wages, will be ad mitted to be a matter to be settled by the master and men, and not by the master alone. 2. That the change will produce actual money loss to the men, and money gain to the misters by the abolition of "overtime . " Overtime is a custom which has been denied, indeed, on behalf of the masters, but is positively asserted by the masons and bricklayers whom we have examined. Details have been given us satisfying us that, in many instances at least, the rule has been enforce& Under the practice of overtime foe every hour worked beyond the day's work of ten hours the men claimed " time and a half ;" that is, the usual rate plus 50 per cent. It had two objects. First, and principally, to operate as a prohibitive tariff to the master and • protection to the men against overwork. Secondly. If extra work was unavoidable, to com pensate the workman for the greater expenditure of vital energy which the prolongation of his labour necessitates, and for the sacrifice of a portion of that leisure which becomes more valuable to him the less of it he has left. Under the hour system both of these advantages vanish. The actual money loss to the men (which is considered a lesser evil than longer hours) is easily calculated. Sup pose a man works two hours extra : under the old system he received three hours' pay or Sx 60. =UV. ; under the new he receives but two hours' pay, which, even at the increased rate of 7d makes but 14d. I -3: That the change will take away or jeopardise other of their privileges under the day system which have been the subject of long struggles. The men had the right (not indeed always enforced) to a day's pay or dismissal after three or four hours' work. The carpenters also had a customary 'allowance of a fraction of a day at the close of a job for sharpening their tools. Generally, with justice or not, the hour system is felt by the men as a humiliation, reducing them to the level of dock labourers. At all events it clearl tends to slacken still further the tie, already very loose, which binds the employer and the employed together. The statements of the men appear thus to show that they have good reason to apprehend logs from the adoption of the hour system. We may add that they have offered to refer the matter to arbi tration, which the masters decline to do, and that they allege themselves ready to accept payment by the hour, if 10 hours are, as before, recognised as a day's ork, with all the old privileges. Now, as to the method in which the present movement has been conducted. It is conducted by committees of the five several branches of the building trade (viz., the masons, bricklayers, car penters, painters, and plasterers), each of which acts independently, and has in fact pursued • dif fereut policy. Each of these committees has been elected for this special object at a general meeting of their own trade, at which both unionists and don unionists both spoke and voted, and may be dis solved or changed by a similar meeting at any time. The committees are all composed of union men, but are responsible not to the union, but to these general meetings. The funds are subscribed by and distributed amongst non-unionists as well as unionists. The committees are composed without exception of working men, every one of whom was at work a few weeks since, and is ready and desirous to g o to work again u soon as this dispute is settled. The highest payment which any member of these committees gets is the ordinary day's wages of his trade ; a large majority accept much less. Lastly: Though all the great firms are endea wwing to enforce the hour system, it is expected that those of the men who have accepted it without protest form a very mall minority of the whole trade, and with some exceptions are very inferior workmen. In some twee, in consequence, a less elaborate style of work is said to be adopted. Great works we at a stand-still, though many men have been brought up from great distaimea, and even these, it is stated, are retained with great difficulty. The above statements are made by us from per -11013111 inquiries amongst the workmen, members of trade societies—and in one case from one who bad left his union and disapproves of its proceedings-- from examination of their committees and leaders, from inspection of documents, reports, and ac counts, which have been freely thrown open to us. Sever of us have also attended their general meetinp, and carefully watched the action they adopt. We guarantee our belief in these state ments by signing our names to this document. If the facts are true, the men's case has been wholly misrepresented ; if false, they have only to be made public to be authoritatively contradicted. THOHAS ErCHLR, Otd-square, Lincoln's-inn.

Patti appeared in the character of Lady Enrichetta in Flotow's Martha, and again achieved a triumphant success, being received with enthu siasm by one of the fullest and moat brilliant houses of the season. The opera is so well known that critical remarks ea it would be very superfluous. It is a pretty piece, and owes its success more to its subject—which is so happy that it has been dramatised several times—than to its mimic, of which the best that can be said is that it is light and pleasant. Mdlle. Patti represented the heroine admirably ; first as the Uncut court-beauty weary of her monotonous life and eager for • little excitement—then as the pretended country girl, enjoying her escapade, but trembling at the scrape into which she has got herself ; and lastly, ea the feeling woman, whose heart has been awakened to tenderness and love. In all game phases of the character the young actress was charm ing, showing that attention to truthfulness in the minuted details of her part that has uniformly distinguished her dramatic efforts. In the music of the part there are few remarkable features. The only air of great beauty is the lovely Irish melody' " The Last Rose of Bummer," which the composer has wisely turned to the beet possible account by remedial:Sag it several times in interesting situations. This air Mdlla. Patti sang with the most captivating grace and simplicity, throwing the whole audience into • tumult of delight. In the lively quartett—the cleverest morcoau in the opera—in which the two young farmers set their serving damsels to work at their spinning -wheels, she produced an immense effect by the playful lightness and brilliancy of her execution. Mario was admirable as the young lover. He looks and seta such a part as no other performer that we have ever seen can do ; and, though his voice failed him • little in high passages, be sang with that rich and mellow sweetness—that fervid, passionate expression —which are peculiarly his own. Nothing could be more exquisitely tender than his delivery of the air," Martha, Martha," which, next to the " lost Rose of Bummer," ie the beet melody in the opera. Didite was Nancy ; Or•xiani, Plunkett, and Taglia fico, Tristan, all excellent ; indeed the cast of the opera could not have been better. It was, too, beautifully got up in every respect. The fair at Richmond, with its busy groups, merry dances, and rustic pastimes, was one of the pyeet and prettiest scenes we have ever enjoyed. THE ROYAL AGEICULTURAL SHOW AT LEEDS. LEEDS, SATURDAY. The implement judges, at a late hour this even iaave in their awards of several of the most important althoogh there are others yet undecided. With to the steam eultivaton two prises were offered of 1001. eaoh—oae for the beat application of steam for the cultivation of the mil, and the other for the best applim tiou of steam power for the cultivation of the soil, worked by an ordinarf portable engine not exceeding 10-horsipower —but the judges apportioned these amanita upon a some what different principle. The trial of drills and hoes oeicu pied the judges on Thunday, ten y, and to-day, but the only novelty was • sew • new implement being always regarded on these occaaions with great Interest. The mowing and reaping machines were also tried on the mme days. The preliminary experiments weeded out all but three competitor in the mowing class and four in the mowing and napuig class, The latter are Mean. Burgess and Key, and Meson. Cranston (Wood's American), Samuel son, and Harwood ; but the judgment upon their machines is reserved until the corn harvest, when they will be tested in reaping also. Willi Ito the general exhibition of implements, it i e s i = i to say that egriculteral mince, in this department, was never before more thoroughly re presented. There are on the ground a great number of new implements, which, however, our limited space will not allow us to particularise ; indeed, there is scarcely a maker of any reputation who does not exhibit something sew. The entries, including those for butter, chasm, wool, sad flax, exceed 6,000 ; and of agricultural implements, properly and strictly so called, there are upwards of 2,000. The cattle show-yard now presents an suimated and in teresting appearaoco, all the stock having been received before four o'clock this day. The cattle judges are to com mence their arduous task at 6 o'clock on Howley morning, sad it is expected that they will conclude their labours shortly after noon, when the public will be admitted. It connexion with the show, the mayor has issued up wards of 1,000 invitations to a grand evarersa:ionte in the Victoria Hall, on Tuesday evening, and on the Rune evening Professor Wilson will read a paper "On the application of steam to agriculture." A great show of sporting and other dogs in Wells street, a grand horticultural file, with the music of the Coldstream Guards (close to the show-yard), a floral sod entomological exhibition, drama at the Theatre ers, at the Princess's Theatre, equestrianism at the ite Z t phitheatre, performances on the grand Town-hall organ eniverte on Thursday and Friday, with the very highest vocal talent, and nightly entertainments with a sham Sims Reeves, will provide abundance of interest, amusement, sad gratification for the immense influx of visitors to this czt meeting ever held by the Royal Agricultural Awasn or ran Jamie nr Imptsmorrs ur TO SATURDAY NIGHT. 501. to John Fowler, 7 .54,60rnhi11, London, for 12-horse power steam cultivating apparatus, and plough, suitable for ploughiog land of all descriptions. 501. to John Fowler, jun., for ditto, suitable for acarifying, grubbing, and breaking up land of all descriptions. 501. to John Fowler, jun., for steam cultivating apparatus and plough, with 8-horse power portable steam-engine (worked at 10-hone power) suitable fur ploughing land of all &scrip twns. 251. to John Fowler, jun., for ditto, suitable for scar ifying, grubbing, or breaking up laud of all descriptions. 25/. to James and Frederick Howard, of Britannia Iron works, Bedford, for windlass, which may be attached to any ordinary portable stem-engine, and used for working steam ploughs of cultivators ; and also for a set of ploughs and a cultivator, which may be used on mixed and light soils baring a level surface.

The first portion of Saturday's ceremonial,the distribution of prizes, came off at about three o'clock in the afternoon. The prices were displayed on a platform in front of the grand stand, and there his royal highness stood, surrounded by his staff and the council of the association, to distribute the varlousobjecte for which the riflemen had been contest ing se hardly during the previous fortnight. The band of the Coldstream Guards played appropriate music at in tervals, and Lord Elcho's fine corps attended as • guard of honour. The prizes were rather various in character, in cluding engravings, iron safes, and various amounts of the circulating medium. Of this last named, perhaps most popular form of reward, Mr. Jopling carried away about 2501., and the only /egret was that he had not also won the iron safe, in order that he might have • suitable depository for his large acquisition of treasure. His royal highness opened the proceedings with • few judicious and well chosen observations, delivered in a frank and soldierly manner, and which were received with acclamation by the se lect audience "fit though few,"which assisted &tilde the day's opening business. We must ►ere mention that we cense of the thin attendance at the distribution was that for admission to the " grand stand," from which alone a good view could be had, was charged a fee of halfayninee • head, whilst five shillings was demanded for steadily room in • sort of pen which flanked it right and left. Mb, and the arrangement which separated by so long an interval the distribution and the review, mast be taken as accomating for the thin attendance at what is generally a great atiractiou. His royal highness congratulated the association Os ti► wooer of their rifle makii, hoped often to meet them spiry sad cautioned the riflemen to keep their practice up, their rifles ready, and their powder dry. He congratulated them on their irogrese since the of the volunteer movement, and hinted in a delicate way that if the association got more subscriptions, there was no doubt but thatnext year their arrangements would be still more liberal and efficient than they were admitted to be in the present. The distribution was then proceeded with, with a kind and encouraging word from the royal distributor to each recipient, and a cheer from all who could see the presentation, or hear his royal high. DWI'S observations. As we have already published the names of the successful competitors day by day It will not be necessary here to republish them in extols°, the more 'specially as many of them were too modest to come for their prises, which bad in consequence to be taken back to store. A "dark gray man," who had come all the way from under " the Southern Cross," to luxuriate in the showers of Wimbledon, attracted the quick eye of his Royal Highness. This was Mr. M Tarim' an Australian competitor, clad in the monotonous and peculiar uniform of his colony, who had won an engraving. His Royal Highness warmly com plimented the Australian on his seal and enthusiasm, and hoped that his good example would be generally follo wed by hie brother colonist'. Mr. Ross, the veteran deer.stalber, bad aka gracious notice ; and Ensign Halliday. who woo the iron wife, was offered every facility for carrying off his exceedingly portable prise in triumph. Cemeiderable amusement was caused by this proses tation, but it subsequently transpired that Mr. Halli day bad solved the difficulty by exchanging it for two silver cups. The lion of the day was of course Mr. Jopling, whom success the Duke good-humouredly exulted in, as redounding so much to the credit of the civil branch of his own depart mint. After the presentation came the rain, and what was more agreeable, the luncheon, at which the British volunteers fully sustained the honour of their country. The majority rushed to Mr. Donald's refreshment booths, where they were fully satisfied with their treatment ; but some corps. wise in their generation, had brought their own commissariat waggons, in which were stored the stout ale and warden pies immortalised in the Robin Hood ballade Unhappily, they could not discuss them " under the greenwood tree," seeing that the Common is entirely innocent of arboricultand furniture ; but they enjoyed them nearly as much under capacious umbrellas, which were spread out in such numbers us to give quite a new character to the vast and desolate prairie. For a considerable interval no sounds were heard is the volunteer camp but those of jollity and tempers** carousal, during which the men snapped their fingers at the weather, and girt themselves up for the military mano e uvres of the evening. (Stamped, ld. Additional.) [TWOPENCE view. The volunteers, with real ardour, followed their imaginary enemy into the distant furze, and the con• tinned fuaillade indicated the sharpness of the struggle, and the valour with which every inch of ground was contested. Now and then a boom from the great guns told how serious matters were getting, and a terrible rumour reached the Grand Stand that theadvancing line of ths volunteers had been broken through the ardour of the men, and that the latter were becoming dangerously "clubbed" in the distant furze. Then we heard that the attack bad failed, and bad, there fore, according to the Austrian manner, been changed into a reoonoaissance, and that the volunteer army, having found the enemy too strongly posted, were in full retreat upon the Grand Stand. A series of black lines, some of rather irregular formation, emerging from the smoke, soon con firmed our worst apprehensions. Then squares were formed and cavalry resisted ; much powder was expended, but in a discursive manner, until at last the whole body approached the stand in one long, waving, uncertain line. This was to be a grand charge along the whole line, a beautiful ma noeuvre when performed by regular troops ; but the ardour of the volunteers was too great for the restraints of discipline, and one amps to the right of the line broke up into a perfect mob, lashing forward with frantic shonta, and causiag terrible anguish to volunteer officers and military aides, who 'snapped across the front of the wild crowd, and waved them back into line with frantic gestures. It a in these ambitious manmuvres that our volunteers stead most in need of practice, and—we must add—el better and more attentive °theory. The general observation made by the military men on Saturday was that the ewe were wonderfully perfect, but that the officers, letth a few excepticea,were wholly unable properly to !undies them. In the firing by sections the greatest difference was perceptible. In emus cane the volley came, as it ought to do, in only one report, whilst in others it rattled in the most irregular and unprofessional manner. The public were not slow to perceive the difference, marking the good firing with loud applause and laughing cruelly at the leas fortunate attempts. As usual, the day finished with the " march past," which the General Commanding in Chief watched with a most patient and scrutinizing eye : to some he nodded his head approvingly, others made him slightly scratch his ear with a dubious air, and in ono or two eases his Royal Highness was quite audible in his commendation. One alight manceuvre, that of advancing arms, as each corps approached the &Waif, was performed in the right place sad at the right time by only one corps, the London Scot tish, and this did not escape the quick eye of the Coln mandsr-in•Chief, who by nods and a slight clap of the bands recognised the proficiency in drill of the Gaelic host. But all the corps were received with equal ovation by the public, which by this time densely fringed the whole common, and could mot amount to less than 50,000 persons. The throng of private carriages was enormous, and their fair occupants clapped their hands or waved their handkerchiefs, as the various appropriate airs played by the band indicated the approach of "The Devil's Own," or "The London Irish" or "Scottish," or some other popular corps. None received more hearty cheering than the Workmen's Corps of the City of London, and the marching of this manly looking and well-disciplined body elicited the marked notice of the Cenunander.in.Chief. The South Middlesex had special Meows, in consequence of the success of Mr. Jopling, and, like Maodnff's army, bore green boughs on their arms, to re present the laurel wreath of victory. The cheering of the spectators was hearty and encouraging throughout for every corps, and the marching such as fully to justify the compli ment. The beat was probably the London Rifles and the Artillery Company ; but it was all far above the average, and was pronounced by all the military authorities to be a great advanceupon previous displays. When the last corps bad passed his Royal Highness pllopped off the ground, and the volunteer array made the best of its way to the railway station, a task of no little difficulty, as every road leading from the common was really blocked up by private car riages, of which probably so great a number was seldom seen at any spectacle in the neighbourhood of Loudou. The ground was kept by the 40th Middlesex, com manded by Sir John Shelley, M.P., the led City of London (Working Men), and 6th Tower Hamlets. Two ca sualties occurred during the advance of the first line. Mr. Steadman, of Leighton, Esser, member of the sth Essex corps, had two of the middle fingers of his left hand shot off by the accidental discharge of his rifle, and a member of the London Rifle Brigade was wounded by the rifle of his rear rank man. Razz BOOKS AND MAtrumarrrs.—At a sale of books and mantmenpts by Messrs. Puttick and Simpson, of Lekerterlquare, during the post week, some high prices were realised, as the following quotations will show : Lot 52, • Bewiek's Quadrupeds," one of four copies on thick 161. 10s. ; lot 713, ' Hone Dea th Marina Virginia," a paper of the 15th century, decorated in the extremely rare 0111119iell gns style, 6f.; lot 764, a contemporary Co.l lathiest of the tracts of John Wield, 601. ; lot 767, York Breviary, of the 13th century, 321. • lot 771 wee an arm chair formerly in the possession of Liavid Gurrick, beauti. fully carved from the design of William Hogartb, a me dallion of Shakspeere in the metro of the back being carved Hogarth himself from the celebrated mulberry tree. This interesting memorial, after au active competition, was sold for 300 guineas. The last day's sale consul.= entirely of deeds and charters, with • few other MSS. from the fa mous Surrenden collection, formed by Sir Edward Bering, in Charles L's time. Amongst the more remarkable lots were lot 935, Charter lof Wihtred, King of Kent, of Liberties to the Churches and Monasteries of the !'Aunty. " Achim die VI, id.

SHIP STAR or THE Eesr.—The following is the ecnielesion of the report of Mr. Raffles on the investigation recently held by him at Liverpool with referents to the loss of the ship Star of the East. "The master appears to hays been 22 years at see during five of which he was ern ployed in the coasting t rade between Cape Town sod Port Natal, and professed to be well acquainted with the prevail ing winds and currents. This local knowledge, and the fact of hi. Lying up so well at the time, perhaps induced him to stand in somewhat closer than, looking at the result, proved to be consistent with atria prudence ; but as from previous experience he expected a land wind at sunset, and felt con fident, as he reasonably might do, that his ship would stay, I ern disposed to regard the subsequent occurrence more as an unforeseen casualty than an error of judgment amount ing to • default. Under these circumstances, no want of sobriety or culpable neglect being proved, I have with the full concurrence of my colleague in tie inquire, felt myself warranted in returning to Captain Greyston his certificate, with the expression of a hope that the disaster by which so valuable a ship and cargo were lost will be a caution to him for the future.—T. S. RAITLES." Captain HT. HARRIS, Nautical Aseemor_ . , concurs in the above report. SINOULAR DISCOVERY UV TREASUEIR —A foes days since a party of seven man were employed in grubbing up several decayed trees on the estate of Captain Wheatley, at Erich, when they discovered a bar of metal 110/110 feet below the surface, and completely embedded is the roots of an old oak. The bar was takeu to the Running Horse Tavern, when it was soon discovered to be solid silver, value about 1231. and bearing date 1542. As it =peers that the lord of the manor declined to claim the property the finders took it to n bullion dealer's in London, who offered to pur chase the bar provided that the consent ofthe Treasury was first obtained. A statement of the caw, was then forwarded to the Lords of the Treasury, from whom au answer was received to the effect that so claim would be made on the pert of the crown, and the property has, therefore, been sold, and the amount shared amongst the fortunate &demo( the treasure. BtrTIDISICI' STRIKL.—The masons, on Satur day, paid every man on strike 10s. each, being the weekly strike pay of the society, irrespective of the dividend result itig from the subscriptions and gifts of other trade societies. The bricklayers also paid the whole of their strike members 15e. each, b esi des their picket money, amounting to 51. each, and during the 15 weeks of the strike they have paid their men the same amount. TamtasraN Enanzarros.—Tho Antipodes, Cap tain G. Croot, left Gravesend on Friday evening last, with 85 single women, selected by the Tasmanian Emigration agency. The emigrants were under the medical charge of George Dinharn, Esq., with Was Louisa Dawes, as matron, assisted by two sub-matrons. The ship was visited by Mr. Philip T. Smith and Mr. James A. 1 oul, accompanied by Mr. Thomas B. Parker, secretary to the agency. We un derstand that 100 mom sivee females, accustomed to do mestic service, will be forwarded to Tasmania in September neat, being the last shipment for the present year.

The number of men who were to master being consider ably over 10,000, the railway companies were called upon to make liberal special arrangements ; but whether from the suddenness of the call, or from a belief that the muster would not be en very numerous, such arrangements as bad ' been made did not give general satisfaction. The trains made very slow way in getting down, and still slower in getting back to town, and the majority of engines employed exhibited strong symptoms of acute bronchitis en route. There was much delay, and a great deal of grumbling, but the real cause of both appeared to be the small size of the Wimbledon Station, which of course had been constructed without any idea that it was at any time to be suddenly called on to meet an invasion of 10,000 volunteers. As Wimbledon-common is obviously the ground on which an future metropolitan volunteer displays must Mica place this matter ought to be looked to, and better station accommodation provided, as it is too bad . that either volunteers or the public should be kept two hours in getting down from town and four hours in getting up, iu a railway journey of not more than six or eight miles. Hundreds of persons did not get back to town on Saturday evening until long after midnight, a circumstance which, had the drenching rain of the earlier hours of the evening not abated, might have been attended with very serious in convenience. Another matter which will require reform is the mode of getting from the station to the ground. On Saturday the cab and omnibus drivers took full revenge for their bad trade on the opening day, and, having first actually pushed people into their vehicles, set them down where they liked, and charged them at tho rate of about two shillings a mile for their journey. Such conduct would hardly be worth notice. if the event were an exceptional see not likely to occur again ; but as we trust our volunteer review is to be an anniversary, it is absolutely UCCIAI4I7 that everything likely to deter the public from attending should be reformed. Under the present arrangements it mats a traveller considerably more to get from the Wimble don Station to the common than it dues to travel first class from town and back again. _ . . The venous corps commenced their arrival upon the pound shortly after four o'clock, the approximate strength of the volunteer force upon the ground being about 11,500 men. _ _ _ This, it will be admitted, was a very formidable muster to be supplied exclusively by metropolitan corps ; but when, Laving filed off, each body took its allotted etation on the common, previous to the maximums, they appeared to be only so many little isolated squares on some vast chew board. Wimbledon-common, which contains 1,800 statute acres, sad is Dearly twice the size of the dusty Champs do liars, might with some little expense be made an admirable parade ground for 100,000 men. - When all the preliminary preparations were completed the forces appeared in two lines of contiguous qnarterdis tance columns facing the butts, having the Grand Stand on the right, at some distance, and the road on the left. The mounted Artillery and guns of the Honourable Artillery Company were on the extreme loft, sod occupied a position In the mad leading from Wimbledon to Kingston and Combs Wood. The movements were commenced by the first lie., formed of three brigades ; and the object of the troops appeared to be to attack aid drive ott a body of the enemy, supposed to be in positioo, in great force, beyond the butts. As the preliminary to this step, the advanced body threw out skirmishing companies, consisting of the City Rifles and the lone of Court. The rain had fallen heavily before the commencement of the proceedings, and the ground was very wet, but ooe•half of the gallant sharp. shooters took no heed of this trifling discomfort, aid threw themselves down with the meet perfect aGandon, and with thorough regard to the orders that they were to form a re- serve body. The advanced firing party pushed on over the uneven ground on which the butts and brushwood are situated, sad noon the little puffs of white smoke and the sharp crack of the rifle told that they were carefully feeling the way for the main body to follow. The second line of skirmishers rose, evidently by no means unwillingly, from the soft and muddy position in which they bad lain, pushed forward, and were followed by the main body. From this point the evolutions had for the spectators all the enchant- ment which the poet tells us is lent by distance to the
