The laudch will take place bets con 1 and 2 o'clock. The screw steam corvette Rattlesnake, 21, was taken outside Plymouth Breakwater, ou Thursday last, by Commander Risk, of the Steam Reserve, for the purpose of trying her engines. They are horizontal direct, of 400 h orse power nom i na l, an d were built by Messrs. Ravenhill, Salkeld, and Co. Mr. Steil, inspector afi)at, and Mr. Ward, from Keyham-yard, represented the Admiralty, and Mr. R. Hodgson, the contractors. She is fitted with a Griffiths' screw of 16ft. diameter, and 21ft. pitch. After running six times over the measured mile with full power, a mean speed of 12.24 knots was produced; mean revolutions, 66 per minute, The Rattlesnake is masted and rigged complete, and draws 16ft. 4in. forward, and 19ft.

BLEC2RIC TABGhT 281 An experiment of a very interesting character to volunteers was yesterday made at the range of the St. George's Rifles, at Wormwood Scrubs, and a number of gentlemen of rank and position connected with volunteer regiments were present—among them, Lord Eicho, M.P., W. Wells, Esq., Mr. Evans, M.P. ; Col. Wood, Paddington Rifles; Capt. Fenton, West Middlesex ; Major Ives, St. George's; Captain Pugh and Lieutenant Humphreys. The Metropolitan Rifle Range Company having adopted the targets of Messrs. S. C. Hemmings and Co., who have bought the patent of M. Chevalier, com menced a trial of an electric target, at half-past one o'clock in the afternoon. The principle of the patent is as follows :—The target is divided into ten portions—bull's-eye, centre, left, right, upper, lower, upper left, upper right, lower left, and lower right. As a shot strikes any one of these divisions a ball at the back is driven away with some force, and by its percussion completes the electric circuit, the needle on the indicator at the firing point making a notation corresponding to the impingement of the shot. Twenty-eight shots were fired, at the 150 yards range, and all of these were exactly indicated with one exception, the failure of which was owing to a break in one of the wires, which were all much too small to stand their work. Removing to 400 yards, other 28 shots were fired, and all the hits out of this number were ex actly recorded on the indicator. Considering the disadvantages under which the trial was conducted the experiment must be regarded as eminently suc cessful. Doubtless when the target is properly and permanently fixed, and the indicator is not liable to accident and disturbance by being shifted from place to place in a truck, the invention will show up better than it has done. As it is, however, we have seen enough to convince us that in the inven tion there are the germs of a complete revolution in the system of marking. Ere long we shall be able to get rid of the expense now incurred by pay ing a staff of markers, since the wages of a marker for one year would buy a machine, which will last for many years. More than this, by a different arrangement of the sections or divisions of the tar get the marking will come to be more exact, and this is a desideratum which the council of the National Rifle Association will do much to bring about, if, as appears probable, they will at the next Wimbledon meeting adopt a new arrangement in marking for the all-comers prizes. We must con gratulate Mr. Hemming and the managers of the Metropolitan Rifle-range Company upon yesterday's success, which, although but qualified, affords a guarantee for the ultimate triumph of the principle. We trust that a " fixed" trial may soon be made, when we shall be glad to chronicle the results, and all the more readily if, as we expect, they should turn out to place the success of electric targets as opposed to individual marking beyond a question. It is clear that, when once arranged, wires can have no favourites, and they do not become sleepy or lazy, as volunteer experience shows that markers have an unpleasant habit of doing now and then. THE CASE all THE OFFICERS OF THE INDIAN ARMY. Under the old furlough regulations an officer was permitted to go to Europe for three, or even five years, without prejudic® to his rank in the service, the promotion to the superior grades not being affected by absence. The only penalty was loss of service for retiring pensions if the leave exceeded the regulated period, which (under the new furlough regulations) was reduced to two years in 20, or three in 25 years of actual service. By her Majes ty's warrant, dated the 13th of January, 1860, the new rank of surgeon-major was conferred upon officers of the Indian army after a period of 20 years' service, and this was reckoned from date of commission by the Indian Government, and a large number of promotions made. Subsequently, however, an order was received from the Secretary of State for India, and published by the Governor- General and Viceroy, on the 26th December, 1860, ruling that in future no time passed out of India will be allowed to qualify for the rank of surgeon major, beyond the proportion of furlough which is now or may be allowed to reckon as service for retiring pension. In consequence of this order being made retrospective from the date of its re ceipt in India, a new system of promotion was sud denly introduced into the Indian medical service, and several officers who were entitled to promotion were set aside, and the juniors, who had not suf fered from ill-health, and required a lengthened absence on medical certificate, were promoted in their stead. Several memorials have been forwarded to the Secretary of State with the strong support of the heads of the department at the various pre sidencies, but without avail. The supercession is still being carried on, and old officers of upwards of 20 years' service have now the anomalous posi tion of retrograding in the service, and in some in stances (that of Dr. Shaw, and others of the Bombay medical service) a surgeon of upwards of eight years' standing is superseded by officers who have only held that rank for a few months in the Madras presidency. In this way the seniority principle, which was one of the most cherished privileges of the Indian ser vice, has been entirely set aside, and the position to which officers had attained by many weary years of toil in a hostile climate has been summarily taken from them. All officers of her Majesty's British service attain the rank of surgeon-major after 20 years' service from date of commission, and thus their less fortunate brethren of the Indian army must, as a general rule, be superseded by them. Another grievance which is keenly felt is that, while some old officers are thus being deprived of their proper position in the service, others have been promoted (as Drs. Carnegy, Glasse, and Deas, of the Bombay service) who have been on leave for ten, eight, and six years, and thus the whole service is thrown into confusion, and a general feeling of distrust exists as to what may yet be in store. The late Lord Dal housie, Sir James Outram, and other distinguished statesmen have borne testimony to the high deserts of the Indian medical service, and it is an unwise policy which has created the universal feeling of discontent which now prevails among this valuable class of her Majesty's servants. DUBLIN, Friday Morning.---The Government have just made two legal appointments. Mr. Johnson has been removed from the Chairmanship of the county of Longford to that of the West Riding of the county of Cork, and Mr. Loftus Bland has been appointed to the Chairman ship of Longford. Mr. Drummond died yesterday morning at his residence in this city, aged 82. He has left the sum of £20,000 to endow a school for the orphan daughters of soldiers. He will be interred on Monday next, the coffin to be borne by soldiers, and the boys of the Royal Hiber nian School attending. BOOKSELLERS' PROVIDENT INSTITUTION.-- Yes terday the annual meeting of the members of this institu tion was held at No. 56, Old Bailey—Mr. Edmund Hodg son in the chair. It appeared from the statement of ac counts and report that the income of the past year amounted to—From donations and subscriptions, £530 4s; interest from Commissioners for Reduction of National Debt, £875 8s 10d; total, £1,405 12s 10d. The disbursements—ln rel lief, £1,150 7s 4d ; other expenses, £97 5s 3d ; total £1,247 12s 7d. Balance at bankers' and committee, £509 12s Bd.

The total amount distributed in relief since the formation of the institution was £11,780 12s sd— the total amount raised for the Institution and Retreat being upwards of £50,000. The report stated the satisfac tory progress of the institution, the value and influence of which have long since been acknowledged in the trade. The institution has sustained the loss by death of one of its vice-presidents, Mr. Charles Tilt, on which event his daughter has presented £lOO to the institution. A grea t loss had also been sustained by the death of Mr. Baldock. Mr. Sharp, through ill health, had retired from the board• Mr. Butterworth moved the adoption of the report, which was seconded by Mr. Stewart and agreed to. The o fficers for they ear ensuing were then nominated, and a v ote of thanks having been passed to the officers of the past year, and to tile chairman, the proceedings terminated.

The report whieli has just been issued for the ar /861 by the Civil Service Commiseioner,.; show how the extent of their jurisdiction is gradually being enlarged. Last year they had to deal with more than 4,000 nominations for the home Civil Service. Certificates are now granted for Admi ralty artificers and artificers employed under the War-office ; and the Admiralty have opined to general competition the situations of engineer boys in their factories, and of apprentices in the dock yarde. The boys at some of the dockyards have ac quitted themselves very satisfactcrily. The Com missioners in June last examined candidates for student interpreterships in China and Japan, at the request of the Foreign Secretary, and are now about, in consequence of a communication from the Colonial-office, to examine candidates for interpre terships at Hong Kong. In April last arrangements were completed for establishing a preliminary test examination for the departments under toe control of the Treasury, and a large number of candidates presented themselves. Out of 594 who tried, 302 failed. The examination is not confined to the rudi ments of education, but extends to subjects a know ledge of which i 3 necessary to the particular depart ment. The appendix to the report gives a table re lating to 266 situations competed for in the year, and for which 715 eligible nominees presented themselves and were examined ; 266 were success ful. 141 persons were nominated in the year to clerkships or similar positions, without competition. Of the unsuccessful competitors 41 obtained place's sufficiently high to bring them within the number of situations competed for, and would have received appointments but that they failed in particular subjects, which were, except in 15 cases, of imme diate practical utility for the discharge of the offi cial duties. These failures are of course now very diminished in number by the institution of preli minary test examinations. In non-competitive examinations there were 2,922 certificates given and 444 rejections. Out of the total of 2,733 re jections (to 10,362 certificates granted), from 1855 to the present time, all but 145 have failed in arith metic, in spelling, or in reading the addresses of letters—a test to which candidates for the situation of letter carrier and rural messenger are subjected. 133 were rejected on the health, and 154 on the ground of moral, health or character. Thus far of the home Civil Service; in that of India 80 appoint ' ments were offered for open competition in each of the last two years, and there will be at least as many this year. The number of candidates in 1860 was only 154, last year 171; 49 of these last were sons of clergymen or ministers ; 36 of the can didates came from Oxford, 34 from Cambridge, 27 from Trinity College, Dublin, 7 from the Queen's University in Ireland (3 from Belfast and 4 from Cork), and 20 from the Scotch Universities. Of the five who stood first, four were Scotch by birth or education. The highest mark for Latin and for English competition were obtained by Oxford. candidates ; one previously educated obtained the highest marks for natural science ; the highest for Sanskrit and for Arabic were ob tained by Irish candidates. The number offering themselves for examination in Sanskrit, only six out of an aggregate of 295 candidates in 1855 and the three following years, was 36 last year out of 171—a very satisfactory change. The examinations show some tendency in candidates to diffuse their reading over a considerable number of subjects, instead of confining themselves to a few, and ob taining a thorough:knowledge of them.

They have to state, with regard to the further examination at which the selected can didates have to present themselves after their year of study, that for 16 of those who attended last year they were unable to grant certificates ; and they add, while admitting the importance of general study befoze examination, that they think it most impor tant that, when a place on the selected list has been obtained, the year which follows should be entirely devoted to preparation for official duty.

At the first fence (hurdles) Northern Light nearly came down on his head, but Mr. Goodman quickly steadied him, and he came on to the water jump third; Canteen, following the grey's example, hit the hurdles and rolled over on his side, throwing Meany, and breaking away galloped across the course. After this they charged the water jump, which all got well over, and entered the meadow in the following order, viz., Sunflower, with a lead of half-a-dozen lengths ; Duhallow second; Northern Light third; Romeo, Hunts man, Black Rose, Wee Nell, and Sutherland, with Nelly, a long way behind, last, On rounding the extreme turning flag Black Rose put on the steam, and, running through her horses, soon had a strong . lead, which she maintained over each succeeding fence, and, when crossing the road on to the course, close to the Blue Bells, she was at least a hundre I yards ahead of Sunflower, who was a dozen lengths in advance of the " grey ;" Romeo was fourth; Wee Nell, Sutherland, and Huntsman, nearly abreast, next, with Duhallow a long way behind, bringing up the rear, Mr. Land's horse having met with a mishap along the back, g the straight the s econ d ti me , n ear ly when she cam e on t o th e course .

After this Black Rose kept sailing away, ns positions of the others were unchanged, the lot charging the water jump nearly in Indian file, all getting well over that obstacle, and likewise the stiff fence out of the course, where Wee Nell improved her position, but not into the t for long, as the pace was too great for her, and she quickly fell again but the pace began to tell on her, and at every stride she appeared to be coming back to her horses, and when the hurdles going into the straight were cleared, both Romeo and the Northern Ligh t were u p with her, and be fore they had gone far along the s trai g ht, the two had passed the course the ast time, h e Black rear. O n Rose jumping her, Northern Light having a slight lead, but it was evident that Romeo had the race in hand ; for immediately after landing over the last hurdles, he drew away from the grey, and won easily by four lengths. Mr. Goodman eased Northern Light when he found he was beat, and Black Rose being persevered with to the end secured the second money by half a length; Northern Light beating Sunflower by four lengths ; Wee Nell was fifth, Sutherland sixth ; Hunts man walked in, and did not pass the post, Lamplugh get ting off him before entering the paddock ; the Grand Na tional winner having broken down (off fore leg) very badly ; Duhallow and Nelly were both stopped on the far side of the course, and walked home by a nearer cut.

For the Chester Cup, 20 to 1 was taken about the Black Prince, and 25 to 1 against his stable companion Hadji Stavros. Old Calabar has had supporters for the Two Thousand Guineas at 4 to 1, and not a strong disposition evinced to lay that price. 10 to 1 was freely offered on the field for the Northampton Stakes; but nothing has been done on it during the week.

OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE EIGHT-OARED RACE. Both University crews have now entered upon what is called strict training, and but very trifling changes are to be looked for between this and the day of the race. We subjoin below the correct names and weights of the men as they have been rowing during the past week. Both at Oxford and Cambridge, if we may judge by the numbers attracted to the towing path to witness the daily toil, it appears that quite as much interest as ever is taken in this the peerless race of the year. The course, as usual, will be from Putney to Mortlake, and the day has been finally fixed for Saturday, April 12, when it will b t e e e h ra ig ce h uB water mt st a ratt nearL o n u d p o o n n . tbridgehat time. about m r r . tr . of Exeter College, Orford, will, we hear, ag ain officiateW. o Chitty,t.h a as umpire, and there will b e as usual tbirt eau or fourteen steamboats for the accommodation of the spectators : OXFORD. st. lb. 1.

Yesterday, at 12 o'clock, the sentence of death passed by Mr. Baron Channell at the late assizes for the county of Berks upon the man John Gould, for the brutal murder of his daughter at Windsor, on the 30th of December last, was carried into effect at the County House of Correction at Reading. The circumstances connected with the commission of the crime were published in this paper at the time of the trial, and they must be fresh in the re collection of our readers. A memorial, praying for the reprieve of the crimi nal was prepared by several persons at Reading, and having received the signatures of 300 or 400 of the inhabitants of that town during last week, was forwarded to the Home Secretary, Sir George Grey. Another memorial for a commutation of Gould's sentence was also drawn up and signed by the Mayor and magistrates of Reading and others. No memorial was forwarded from Windsor on the pri soner's behalf. Late on Thursday night the Mayor of Reading (Mr. Hewitt), with several other gentlemen, tra velled to town for the purpose of obtaining an inter view with the Home Secretary, at the House of Commons ; but it proved unsuccessful. The culprit acknowledged his guilt from the first, and expressed great contrition for the dreadful act. He awaited his trial with coolness, and appeared prepared for the worst. He listened to the sen tence of death apparently unmoved ; but on his removal to the prison he seemed to feel the awful situation he was placed in, and shed tears. The chaplain of the prison (the Rev. Mr. Colville) was very attentive to the wretched man, who passed the greater portion of his time in perusing religious books provided for him, and in writing a large number of letters to his wife and other relatives and friends, which were couched in the most affec tionate and serious language. In these letters ho sought forgiveness for the trouble he had caused, admitted that the sentence was a just one, and quoted numerous passages from Holy Writ relating to mercy on high. He also stated that drink was the cause of the foul deed. His wife visited him on 'Tuesday last in company with her own daughter, a girlGou Gould d ab w ou it t h t a hi ß rt i e b e le n to her on Tuesday with some written advice. s e er d o d fn life had been several for at assaultswn o a t o iv r e t o ha f Eton, rnede ovtimh Beersu offences. f k u s er , ni ncandegs. thein (Monday) the culprit was visited by his sister. nightthett a T hi mehoTveeuni The usual reoniuyhTumetaerehrlptsiruoremhv awoke iosoiseinuodfhwna criminal imprisoned dbw a gei s s uea t tvadesn evening asnts f yn iui o np e r r o h ge a a t r t sh Gould c e o l u m la ni hours , i r t e ta t i l r a , e n w d d h t i i o c t h wasrheset re turned o a t morning he arose early, and eightfroapmtgrheae'y e w r h . o untilprecedingpresen t ed Yesterdayadfeyw minutes before twelve o'clock, when the governor took ft ehwe of the gaol (Mr. Ferry), the under sheriff, and other officers, entered his cell, was engaged with the chaplain in devotional exercises.

Sir J. L. Pennefather, K.C.B. The troops deserved great credit for their steady and well executed movements. They returned to Camp at one o'clock. The Artillery only were furnished with ammunition on the occasion. The following is the present distribution of the companies of the Royal Engineers :-Ist company, Plymouth 4th, ; lsth, and ,Al 8t der l sho h, tt ;3d, 27th, and 33d, Malta; Canada; sth and 34th, Burmuda ; 6th, New Zealand; 7th, Halifax, Nova Scotia ; Bth and 10th, China ; 9th, Woolwich ; 11th and 21st, Mauritius; 12th and 25th, Cape of Good Hope ; 20th, Australia ; 23d, Shorncliffe ; 24th, 28th, and 31st, Malta ; 29th and 30th, Corfu ; and the 32d at St. Helena. The companies at head quarters, Chatham, are the 17th, 22d, 2Gth, 35th, 37th, and 38th, in addition to which the 13th, 14th, 16th, and 19th companies are engaged in the tri gonometrical survey of Great Britain. The follow ing companies will shortly arrive in England on the completion of their period of foreign service viz., the 7th, from Halifax; the Bth and 10th, from China; the 11th, from Mauritius; the 20th, from Western Australia ; the 24th and 28th, from Malta; and the 25th, from the Cape. The 22d Company, at Chatham, is the next on the rota to proceed on foreign service. The improvements recently effected in the system of instruction pursued at the Royal Engineer Esta lishment, Chatham, as well as the increase made in the number of subjects connected with the theory and practice of military engineering which the offi cers and men of the Royal Engineers have to acquire before they have completed their curriculum of in struction, have necessitated a considerable augmenta tion in the staff of instructors and assistant instruc tors in the different schools and departments of the establishment at headquarters, as the number of instructors hitherto employed has been found alto gether insufficient for the present requirements of the establishment. The Duke of Cambridge has ac cordingly sanctioned the appointment of six addi tional instructors, raising the total number at head quarters to 14, who will be distributed as follows viz., five fieldwork instructors, two surveying and levelling instructors, one photographic instructor, one telegraphic instructor, one topographical in structor, one lithographic instructor, and one labo ratory instructor. Previously to the employment of permanent instructors the officers and men were put through a course of instruction in a body, under the superintendence of the non-commissioned offi cers of the company to which they were attached, but under the new arrangement the Royal Engi- neers will go through the course of fieldwork in struction according to classes, each class being under the superintendence of an instructor, while each officer and man will have to pass an exami nation by Lieut.-Col. Lovell, C. 8., the chief field work instructor, before he will be dismissed from the fieldworks to join the other classes. The Lords of the Admiralty have sanctioned an exchange of divisions between Lieut.-Colonel C, 0. Hawley, of the Portsmouth Division, and Lieut.- Col. W. S. Aslett, of the Plymouth Division. The corps of Royal Marines being below its re quired strength the following officers have been detached from the head-quarters of several divi sions, and are employed in superintending the re cruiting at the stations named : - Lieut.-Col. J. C. D. Morrison, Chelmsford ; Lieut.-Col. R. Parke, Bath; Major N. Moore, Hull; Major A. A. Dou glas, Bedford; Major E. L. Pym, Derby; Major J. B. Prynne, Launceston ; Captain F. E.

Scovell and the officers and men of the 96th Regiment, who left Queenstown for Ca nada in the hired transport Viet oria, which put back to Plymouth on Tuesday, were landed from her on Thursday. The head quarters and three companies are now in Milbay-barracks : the other two com panies are in the ltaglan, at Devonport.
