aIOIIEI I MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. Ample provision appears to have been made for the monthly liquidation of commercial accounts, 110 embarrassments of importance having taken place. The necessary preparations, however, stimu• lated the inquiry, and the rates continue firm, with rather an upward tendency, although the actual movement up to the present time has been merely fractional, as accommodation is still obtain able on lower terms in the general market than at the Bank of England, The traffic receipts of the Great Western Railway of Canada for the week ending the 17th ult. amounted to £11,743, against £8,975 last year. About £13,000 in gold was withdrawn from the Bank yesterday for exportation. The Canada from Boston has brought £12,200 in specie. No change of importance was exhibited in the Foreign Exchanges yesterday afternoon. Gold is now about 3-10ths per cent. cheaper in London than in Paris, and 1-10th per cent. lower here than in Hamburg. Tenders are invited for the unallotted portion, viz., £145,000, of the Cape of Good Hope Govern ment 6 per cent, Debentures. The Bonds will be of £lOO each, and redeemable in 12 years. I❑ the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday busi ness was rather inactive, but prices were tolerably "well supported. The sales were about 3,000 bales. At a meeting of the Salisbury and Yeovil Rail 'way Company held to-day a resolution was passed empowering the directors to raise on mortgage a sum not exceeding £49,500, under the provisions of the Salisbury and Yeovil Deviation Act of 1860. Continued quietude has prevailed in the market for Public Securities to-day, and the variation has been unimportant. The settlement of the account is now the principal business attended to. Consols are 931 a for transfer, and 921 and 93 for the March settlement. The New Threes are steady at 9 21 93 ; the Reduced, at 92193 ; Exchequer Bills, March, 15s. prem. ; ditto June, 18s. to 193. prem.; Bank Stock is 2381 240 ; and India 5 per Cent. 106,x. In the Foreign Market the dealings have again been on an extensive scale, but prices, in some instances, have shown rather less firmness. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 85 to 851; ditto 1858, 75 1 761 ; and the 4 per Cent. Guaranteed are firmer at 1001 s; Mexican are rather flatter, viz., 241 25 1; Equalor are steady at 171 18 ; Spanish Secu rities are slightly lower, the 3 per Cents. being 54.1 ; ditto Passive, 181 19 ; and ditto Certificates, 71 d ; Venezuelan are firmer at 251 a ; and the Italian Loan, 671 681. the New Moorish Loan is 51 prem. There is a decrease of about £5,000 in the traffic receipts of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway for the past week. Business in the Railway Share Market has con tinued moderately active, and in most instances a alight improvement has taken place in values. Cale donians and South Westerns have advanced 10s.; and Eastern Counties, Great Northerns, Great Westerns, North Westerns, Midlands, and South Easterns £l. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings remained in fair demand, at about previous rates. South Austrian and Lombardo•Venetian realise 20; Dutch Rhenish 161 1; Sambre and Meuse 81 ; Grand Trunk of Canada have declined to 241 25; Great Western of Canada realise 121 1 ; East Indian 102 to 1021 ; and Great Indian Peninsula 1001. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have been in limited request, and prices have ex hibited little change of importance. Bank of Lon don realise 77 to 771 ; London and County 431 44 ; and Crystal Palace Stock 31 to 311. BRITISH FUNDS—ONE O'CLOCK. Bank Stock ...... • ' • • 3 per Cent. Reduced Annuities 923 3 3 per Cent.

COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) BORROUGHS V. BORROTJGHS. The hearing of this petition, which was presented by the wife praying for restitution of conjugal rights, was resumed this morning. _ _ _ Dr. Phillimore and Dr. Swaby were for the petitioner, and Sir F. Slade and Dr. Spinks were for the respondent. The first witness called was The Rev. Joseph Neville White, who was examined by Sir F. Slade. He said—l am vicar of the parish of Stal ham. I have been in orders eleven years. lam married, but have no family. I recollect Mr. and Mrs. Borroughs coming to take up their abode at Stalham. As clergyman of the parish I visited them. I knew the family of Mr. Silcock. He and his father were wine merchants. Mr. Boardman Silcock was a single man, and about 25 years of age. Shortly after the commencement of 1860 I saw Mrs. Borroughs and Mr. Silcock together frequently walking and riding. There were reports in the village about Mr. Silcock and Mrs. Burroughs. I have known Mr. Silcock to have been in Mr. Borroughs' house when he was not there. That has occurred more than once. On the 16th of March, 1860, in the afternoon I went to call upon Mr. Burroughs between three and four o'clock. He was not at home, and I left a message for him by the servant, Ellen Kent. I inquired whether Mrs. Borroughs was at home, and finding she was within I went from the front to the back door, it being the nearest. I found the door open, and went into the dining•room, the door of which was closed. I there saw Mrs. Burroughs sitting on Mr. Silcock's knee in a criminal position. I was so taken by surprise and con founded that I left a message that I wished to see Mr. Boroughs the next morning at my house on some private business, and departed. The servant Ellen Kent entered the room at the opposite doer about the same time, which convinced me there was collusion between the mistress and the maid. Ellen Kent first left the room. I made no com munication as to what I had seen to anybody.. In the summer of the same year, after what I had seen, I saw Mr. Silcock and Mrs. Burroughs together,both in Mr.Burroughs' house and coming up the shore from boating. I recollect Mrs. Burroughs calling upon me on the 23d of November, 1860. I refused to see her. I saw Mr. Silcock that day behind my stables at the same time that Mrs. Burroughs called. Ho was lounging about. I saw Mrs. Burroughs leave the house, and after going as ' far as the corner alone Mr. Silcock joined her. I have been present when Mr. and Mrs. Burroughs have spoken about Mr. Silcock. I have heard Mrs. Burroughs promise faith fully never to meet or speak to Mr. Silcock again, on mere than one occasion, but I cannot give the dates. One pro mise I know was made previous to the 23d of November. On the 27th of November I called at Mr. Burroughs'. I saw his wife. I remonstrated with her on the impropriety of her conduct, and she gave a promise she would cease to speak to Mr. Silcock. I saw her with Silcock after that, on the 18th of December. It was the day after the rupture be tween Mr. and Mrs. Burroughs. I knew nothing about the circumstance. I saw Mr. Silcock sitting in Mr. Bur roughs dining room as I passed the window. Mrs. Bur• roughs was also there. Mr. Burroughs had left. I was told that he had gone away by the servant. I did not in quire for Mrs. Burroughs. I recollect Mrs. Burroughs leavingStalham; it was on the 20th December. On that even ing I saw Mr. Burroughs on his return from Yarmouth. I told him what I had seen on the 16th of March, and the reason I gave for not telling him before was that he had threatened, on account of the reports relative to his wife, to proceed at law against any person making them. I said I did not wish to be the first to throw a stone against his wife, hoping that she might amend. I said if I had shut my door against her every one else would have done the same. Cross-examined by Dr. Phillimore—Mr. Burroughs once asked me as one of the public what I thought of his wife, and I replied I considered her criminally guilty, and I thought she was so—that is guilty of the most coarse adultery. I was not on that occasion drinking spirits with Mr. Burroughs. No one was present at that time. Mr. Clowes came in in the evening. I will swear we did not drink spirits. I never said, " It's a damned good job you've got rid of your wife." I never used such language in m) life. I said nothing about her ruining him. I knew she was an extravagant woman. I said nothing more than I have stated. On the 16th of March when I called at Mr.Burroughs' I went in as usual. There was neither bell nor knocker. I used to knock sometimes with my stick. It was on a Friday that I called, not on a Tuesday, of that lam certain. There were two doors in the dining room. I had a side view of the parties when I first entered the room. I did not observe any parties when I first opened the door. I advanced to within a yard of Mrs. Burroughs, who then got up and I gave her the message. I did not stay a minute. She looked very confused. All she said when I gave her the message was that her husband was not at home. I did not say a word to Mr. Silcock. I saw Silcock on the Sunday follow ing at church. I did not speak to him. The first time I recollect speaking to him was when he attended a committee meeting at my house much against my wishes. The meeting was relative to the Stalham Reading Society. It lasted two hours. I don't think he stayed all the time, I spoke to him as a matter of business, but nothing further. I can not recollect when next I saw him. I have never spoken to him except on matters of business sinse the 16th of March, that is to the best of my recollection. I spoke to him on a matter of business in December, 1861. It was relating to the Reading Society. I never spoke to him as to what I had seen on the 16th of March, I saw Mrs. Burroughs on the 17th of March at my house. My wife was present. She took tea with us. She left about eight o'clock. 1 walked home with her much against her wishes. She did not wish me to accompany her. I did not mention anything to her about what I had seen. After that time she used to teach in the Sunday school. She was a district visitor, but she did more harm than good. She did not visit our house often after the 17th of March. I cannot recollect when I went to Burroughs's house after that If my wife went it was very seldom. Mrs. Borroughs came to our house three times between March and December. She has called at my house frequently as a blind to her hus band. She saw my wife. I spike to her husband about Mrs. Burroughs using my house as a blind. I said when Mrs. Burroughs said she had been to the Vicarage, it was an excuse. Mrs. Borroughs never received the Holy Communion from me. She came to church frequently. 1 never mentioned how I had seen Mrs. Burroughs to my wife. My wife has written to Mrs. Burroughs with my sanction. Ellen Kent remained in the service of Mr. Burroughs after his wife left. I told Mr. Burroughs that I thought there was collusion between his wife and his servant. I told him so when he asked me my opinion as one of the public about his wife. On the 19th of September Mrs. Burroughs called at my house. On the 21st of September Mr. and Mrs. Burroughs and Mrs. Coleman also called. I knew nothing more of Mrs. Coleman than any other of my parishioners. I have bowed to Silcock when I met him since the 16th March. I know a person who had been in Mr. Burroughs' service named Howes. I was in town last Saturday, and I returned to my cure the same evening. I saw Mr. Burroughs last evening at the Westminster Palace Hotel, and also saw him this morning, I know Peter Balls Pestel. I was not present when they had a conversation about this affair. I know nothing about it. William Howes—l am a labourer. In 1859 I was in the service of Mr. Burroughs as groom. I cannot say how long I remained. I left, but I went to live there a second time. I remained about six weeks. I know Mr. B. Sil cock. He visited during both the times I was living there. I recollect a photographer's van being at Stalham. The servants went to have their likenesses taken. Ellen Rent was the servant's name. After she had gone out Mr. Sil cook came to the house. I had occasion to go into the kitchen after he arrived. As 1 was going out I heard a noise in the dining-room—the door was open—and there I saw Mr. Silcock in the act of adultery with Mrs. Bur roughs. I did not go into the room. They were both in an easy chair. I recollect, after that Mr. Burroughs going to Yarmouth. After he had gone, Mrs. Burroughs sent the boy out to tell me to come in and get my tea. After tea she asked me whether I had a mind to go home for a day or two, and I said no ; but if I went at all I should go for good. She said, "If you will go you must go." So I went away after she had paid me my wages. Cross-examined—After I went home I did not do any thing for a long time. I lived with my uncle. After I left him I entered the militia, and remained there three weeks. I then went to sea. After that I went to Man chester. I did not do anything. I lived on charity while I was there. I then went home to my uncle, and went bricklaying. I have had no money save what I got from my uncle. Old Mr. Burroughs has given me some money—that is, he has sent money for my board to my aunt. Mrs. Burroughs, after I had gone away, said I was drunk in the stables. I was not. I never said I went into the room when I saw Mr. Silcock and Mrs. Burroughs. The door was open and I looked in. I never told Ellen Kent what I had seen. I first spoke about it after I came from Manchester. A. man named Brooks asked me if I had seen Mr. Silcock and Mrs. Borroughs in the act of adultery, and I said " Yes." I never said " I don't care a which side I go ; it's all the same to me." Ellen Kent was examined by Dr. Swabey, and denied ever seeing Mrs. Burroughs and Mr. Silcock sitting in an easy chair on any occasion. The case was proceeding when we went to press. A novelty has lately been produced at San Carlo, Naples, in the form of the " Huguenots," and for the first time. During the rule of the Bourbons it was, of course, prohibited, on the pretence that the libretto was irreligious; but now the opposite spirit prevails, and priests and monks, when they come on in the choruses, are greeted by the pit with shouts and hisses, and cries of " Down with the priests." The house hasbeen crowded since the' nUgUel.. nots" was produced. A HARE RUNNING THROUGH REIGATE: few days since as a gentleman was driving a carri a g e up West street, he was surprised to see on before him a hare running towards the town. It continued on its course till it arrived near the new public hall, when puss turned and retraced her steps down West-street, and on coming to the pound ran into it. Several persons then tried to catch her, but she managed to escape them and returned again to the ' fielda.-15ussex &press. 9 11 43 44 7 74 not 1314 ii 1 1T; 100 102 65 67 64j 65} 1001 1001 d 561 a 6; 88 881, 1 99 101 11 41 41d 104 11 92 94 125 127 44 46 100 102 46 48 FOREIGN RAILWAYS 20 Algerian 10 Antwerp & Rotterdam all 61 44 20 Ardennes.... ....... 20 BalL&S.Fran..Lim.7 p.c l5 1 1 151 4 , 5 Belgian East.

The works consisted of a large range of sheet-iron and wooden sheds, acreextensive timber framework, the whole covering some sof ground. The fire was discovered about eight o'clock, by the watchman, raging in the main shed, where the ironwork for the new Westminster-bridge is principally prepared. An alarm was at once given, and mounted ex presses were sent off to the various engine-stations. Long before their arrival, however, the whole of the immense range of sheds and workshops w as a ll in flames. The eng i ne s arrived about nine o'clock, and a plentiful of supply of water being at hand, the firemen at once set to work ; but finding all their efforts useless to save any of the workshops or their contents, they directed their attention to the im mense piles of wooden framework which had by this time ignited. The ponderous masses of iron were glowing with heat, and the hissing of the water from the engine-pipes as it was poured over them presented an extraordinary combi nation of sight and sound. At 10 o'clock the whole o the i ro n roofing and framework , with the large iron girders for the bridge, fell to the ground. By 11 o'clock the flames were got under. The ruins of the premises destroyed cover about an acre of ground. The exact loss of property could not be ascertained. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Robert Gun, a commission agent, of Godolphin-road, Hammersmith, was charged as follows : Joseph Smith, a constable of the C division, said at half past seven last evening he saw the defendant turned out of the American Stores, New Coventry-street. The defend ant then shouted out " Americans to the rescue," got a large crowd of people round him, whom he addressed him self to, stating that he was "an American, and would abide by the charter." Mr. Tyrwhitt—The Americans did not appear in large numbers, I suppose, and there was not much danger ? (Laughter.) Constable—No, your worship, and the defendant was drunk. Defendant--The fact is, I had taken something t o d r i nk, and I got in that state, but I don't remember anything about the Americans or anybody else, I can assure you. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined the defendant ss. THE ROAD THROUGII HYDE-PARK. We have authority for stating that the First Commissioner of Public Works, on the part of the Crown, after considering the various projects that have been made to him for connecting the districts north and south of Hyde-park and Kensington Gar dens has authorised the making of a road which will take the following course :—On the north side the road will begin in the Bayswater-road, slightly to the west of Victoria-gate; it will proceed along the ha-ha or ditch which separates Kensington Gardens from Hyde Park; it will then cross the Serpentine bridge on a level, and pass under one tunnel, so as not to interfere with Rotten-row, and under a seconi tunnel whereby the carriage road parallel with the Kensington-roe dis left untouched. Excepting, therefort, on the Serpentine-bridge, the road throughout will be sunken, and cause no interference whatever with the present public enjoyment of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park. Should the Metropolitan Board of Works assent to making this road, there would be no occasion to apply to Par liament for any powers ; but if, on the contrary, the Metropolitan Board should decline, then it will be necessary to obtain Parliamentary sanction to levy tolls and raise debentures on the security of them. It is proposed that such debentures shall bear 5 per cent. interest, and shall give to each proprietor a transferable free pass for each debenture, not exceeding five. The tolls are to be redeemable when the capital has been paid off, and the repair of the road will be charged on the tolls. In the first instance the capital to be raised will be £35,000 ; but, to provide for any altera tions on the Serpentine-bridge, should it be neces sary, powers will be sought slightly to increase it. It is proposed that trustees shall be created for the administration of the funds; that such trustees shall consist of the Chief Commissioner of Public Works, of representatives of the Exhibition of 1851, and of the Exhibition of 1862, the chair man of the Council of the Society of Arts for the time being, and some other representatives of local interests. Upon receiving the decision of the Metropolitan Board of Works, which is expected on Friday next, the First Commissioner, in the event of its being in the negative, will immediately apply to Parliament for an Act to sanction the taking the tolls. TILE MURDER IN RATCLIFF .HIGHIVAY. Yesterday afternoon Mr. John Humphreys, ths coroner for Middlesex, held an inquiry at the George and Vulture Tavern, Ratcliff-highway, St. George's-in-the-East, on view of the body of James Gardener, aged 38 years, lately residing at No. 1, Denmark-street, who died from the mortal effects of a stab wound in the abdomen, inflicted by Patrick Devereux, a mariner. The full details of the case have been reported under the head of " Thames Police-court." Ii will be remembered that the deceased and the man Deverens were seen quarrelling at the bar of the George and Vulture on the evening of Wednes day, the 29th ult. The accused said to deceased, " If you don't settle with me, I will give you some thing you don't know." Devereux pushed against the deceased, and they went out into the street, but had only gone a few yards when the landlady heard deceased exclaim, " Oh! he has stabbed me." The deceased returned to the public-house, when he said, "Pray, send for a doctor." He was conveyed into.-the parlour, where Dr. Ross, the divisional surgeon, was then called, and deceased was removed to his home, where he expired at two o'clock on Sunday last. The whole of the witnesses examined before the magistrate repeated their testimony, but no new facts were elicited. Dr. Ross, of High-street, Shadwell, proved that the deceased died from an incised wound in the abdomen, about three inches and a half in length. He probed the wound, and found that the injury extended through the peritoneum. Had made a post mortem examination, and death was the result of peritonitis or inflammation of the lining membrane of the stomach: The other organs were quite healthy. The jury unanimously returned a verdict of wil ful murder against Patrick Devereux, for killing and slaying James Gardener. The coroner then made out his warrant for the committal of the accused to Newgate to await his trial at the ensuing sessions of the Central Criminal Court, Old Bailey. THE MURDER OF ERs A NAMKEEPE.R BY TOACITKENT. WEST MALLING, TUESDAY EVENING. This morning the six men who had been taken into custody on suspicion of being concerned in the poaching affrayat Roydon Hall,East Peckham,when James Gray, the head gamekeeper, lost his life, were brought before the sitting magistrates at this town. The names of the prisoners are Thomas Fowler, 30, of East Mailing ; Robert Sampson, 49, of Mere worth ; John Honey, 45, Thomas Honey, 30, and George Honey, 29, of Nettleshead. Wm. Hammond, 41, of Nettleshead, also surrendered in discharge of his bail. --- ----- It may be remembered that an inquest was held on the deceased, when an open verdict was returned; and subsequently the prisoners above named were taken into custody on suspicion of being concerned in the murder. Some formal evidence was produced at the first hearing on Monday last, and this morn ing Capt. Ruxton, chief constable, wit hdrew the charge affecting Hammond and Fowler. Evidenceone o ' clock was oe kadduced this morningmorning to w show that, t a bout he 22d ult., th e game watchers heard the firing of g uns in the oat Wood, and shortly after discovered the poachers. In a conflict which ensued Grey was shot, after a daring challenge to the men as cowards, they being armed with guns, the keepers only hav ing sticks. Broken guns were also found, as well as sticks and bludgeons; but nothing could be iden tified. One of the watchers, Robert Sexton, spoke somewhat positively as to John Honey having a velveteen shooting jacket on, and being one of the party, but a distinct alibi was proved in his case. The identity also failed as regarded the other pri• soners, especially on the part of Sampson, on whose behalf Mr. Goodwin, solicitor, made a forcible ap peal, and called conclusive evidence. After a hearing that occupied upwards of five hours the magistrates unanimously dismissed the charges against all the prisoners. TEIIS DAY'g ofAREETS.

HERTFORD LIT_ERA.RY INSTIT UT. The usual monthly conversazione in connection with the above, took place on Tueaday evening last, in the Town Hall, when Robert I)imsdale, Esq., read an exceedingly interesting paper on " Oar National Defences." The Mayor (J. S. Gripper, Esq.), presided, We subjoin some passages from his able lecture : OUR NATIONAL DEFENCES. About five years ago, just at the close of the Crimean War, I remember witnessing at Dover the popular ovation which saluted Sir Fenwick Wil liams on his return to England after the glorious defence of Kars. He then addressed the enthusi astic audience eager to do him appropriate honours, and, after a few words of graceful compliment to his fellow countrymen, he sought to improve the occasion—thus :—" I have," he said, "just tra velled through Russia ,Prussia, Austria, and France, all teeming with soldiers, and one feeling has been daily —nay, hourly, present to my mind— , Woe to the Nation which neglects the Military Art.' Coming home to England, and honoured by a reception more befitting a victorious general than one who has been compelled by hard fortune to sur render the keys of a fortress into the hands of a foe, I feel bound by the gratitude due to my fellow countrymen to address to them these words of solemn warning—to tell them of the perils to which they are exposed, and to urge on them the prepa rations requisite to ward off these perils from their beloved country and happy firesides." At the moment the memorable warning of Sir Fenwick Williams was unheeded—men were too pleased to have terminated the Russian struggle, to pay much attention to the words of any Prophet of Evil— reduction followed reduction in the Estimates, naval, as well as military, in obedience to the in terested clamour of narrow-minded parsimony, and the unthinking policy of 1856 produced its appro priate fruit in the undignified panic of 1858. And yet the war in which we had just then been en gaged, might have taught us, had we been wise enough to profit by them, many useful lessons. The ease with which the allied forces effected a landing on the shares of the Crimea, might have suggested to us how feeble a defence an exposed sea-board is to the incursions of an aspiring foe ; the success of the iron-plated batteries against the forts of Kin burn, and the splendid equipment of the fleets of our old rival and temporary allies might well have alarmed us for the stability of our present supremacy en the ocean ; while the utter break•down of our military and commissariat organization might have taught a rational public that much reform was needed in both departments before we should be in a position confidently to encounter the great military monar chies of continental Europe. But the fact is, that for a series of years, we have been trading on the triumphs of the past—boasting of the victory of - Waterloo, and the glories of the Peninsular Campaign ; whilst France—alike ender hereditary sovereigns and elected emperors has been steadily progressing—trebling her armaments and preparing such a fleet as may well presume in some coming time to dispute the pretensions of the ancient mis tress of the seas. Several schemes have already been set on foot for creating the needed supply of men. Since 1852 we have raised continuous service-men, wh o are enlisted for a period of ten years instead of being paid off at the close of each ship's commis sion, and it has been proposed to reinforce this class by a constant supply of boys. " These might easily be obtained," says Sir Howard Douglas, " from our Reformatories and Unions." The most promising boys should be selected from these places, and dis tributed for education amongst training ships lying at our various ports ; and it is the opinion of our best informed seamen that youths so trained would turn out the most efficient and valuable sailors. The marines now amounting to 6,000 men should im mediately be doubled, and these when not afloat, might in times of peace be usefully employed in garrisoning our seaports, while in the event of war their place would be readily supplied from our Volu nteer Force, and they could be speedily drafted off into the various ships required for the emergency. It was the reasonable suggestion of the late Sir Charles Napier, that a strong channel fleet should form part of our peace establishment, so that when a war should break out half the sailors might be transferred to other ships, lying as yet un commissimed in our harbours, the vacancies being filled up by marines; and so at comparatively small outlay and with great rapidity the strength of our available fleet be doubled. Our coast-guard is com posed of tried seamen who have served in the Royal. Navy for 7 or 10 years, and they number like the marines 6,000 men, and were sea-worthy vessels placed at their disposal, instead of the present rotten nutshells provided for them by Government within 24 hours they might in case of anticipated invasion be assembled on board their ships, and in three days be lying at anchor at Spithead. The Naval Coast Volunteers are drawn from the ranks of boatmen, fishermen, and longshoremen, who are enrolled for five years on the reception of a bounty of £6; they are bound to undergo a drill of eight and twenty days on board the coast-guard ships, but they can not be compelled to serve at a greater distance than a hundred leagues from shore. Some of our naval authorities have undervalued the services likely to be rendered by these men, but I think without reason—for at all events they would be found useful on board our gun-boats, which stud ding our creeks and shallow waters, would inflict in tolerable annoyance upon an advancing fleet. Each gun-boat carries one or two 40 pounder Armstrong guns, and from their diminutive proportions, and the rapidity of their movements, it would be very ar th . eir r ange is as great d as iffi th e a u t lt o t f o a h h i e t a t v h y em m ' an w- o h f i-l w e In havegu n r b o o o a d t y s f t o h r e E ao t o g n l s h w fleet a i ss the powerful— we French ca n 2 number only 68, The .Royal Naval Volunteers are the last class of seamen to which I shall now allude—they amount to 30,000—they may claim a pension at the age of For very long indeed, eorvitvhaears fifty—they receive payment for time spent in prac tice—may obtain admission to the Coast Guard— and are eligible for nomination to Greenwich Hos pital in old age. It is to this class—it is hoped that in times of danger—we shall allure powerful rein forcements from the Mercantile Marine, and as that comprises ample siosm°3fee;2norre2bevi n clueo s t it a t e r i d oe l e uponnVix t o o : cnii f slit sutoylveueonn. t den h h, eetrahwna line—the i i e t h appears that we have a Government may draw h t ' eers from this class proved naasmoauoprupi amount Naval apprehension u slioßi could have Volunteers all h m a a y n i n ng ed stepped forward from the ranks of Mercan tile M ar ine.

It has been remarked that, with all this, the naval service is not popular amongst us—and per haps this fact—which is indisputable, may in great measure be attributed to the low pay awarded to our sailors. During the American war, in 1812, the ships of our antagonists were to a very consi derable extent manned by renegade English men—tempted by the lure of better wages to imbrue their hands in the blood of their fellow-countrymen. Ordinary seamen in the American service receive £3 12s. per month, whilst in ours they get but £2 95., while gunners who with us are paid only £2 14s. 3d.—from the United States Exchequer would claim £4 for each month's service, and we pay dearly for this niggardly policy by the _ of another PaYi disas ters of a war which tarnished the lustre of t ri he British name. The fatally vicious pla n g off crews on each ship's return to port is course takes blot upon our maritime system—i t o f m an-of-war, yet we take no pains to profits y man-of--war, a experience in when soon as our stru some time to accustom even merchant s eamen to the discipline and regularity throw it aside.
