Mrs MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS, YESTERDAY. The gold taken from the Bank to-day was X. 207,000, principally in French coin. It is reported that this withdrawal is to pay for an amount of silver purchased of the Sardinian Government. A prospectus has been issued of the Union Bank of England and France,with a capital of £1,000,000, in shares of £lOO. The recent decree facilitating the operation of English limited liability com panies in France is mentioned as one of the induce ments to the project, together with the increase of transactions between the two countries that has teken place since the commercial treaty. The Board of Trade returns for the month end ing the 30th of September were issued to-day, and are, on the whole, satisfactory, since they exhibit an increase in the declared value of our exportations of £176,121, or about IP,-, per cent. Compared, how ever, with the corresponding month of the preced ing year there is a reduction of £2,250,127, or more than 16 per cent. The drain of gold is increasing. About £207,000 was withdrawn from the Bank to-day, for trans mission to the Continent, principally to pay for silver. Recent remittances from Ameriea have also been bought for the same destination, and further amounts are expected to be taken from the Bank during the next few days. The Secretary of State for India in Council has intimated that until further notice tenders will be received on the first and third Wednesdays in each month, commencing with Wednesday, the sth of November, for bills of exchange on India to the extent of rupees 50,00,000 (£500,000) in each month. The American advices telegraphed this afternoon show that the exchange, which, at the date of the departure of the previous packet, was nearly 147, has been in the interval as low as 130, and comes last qtioted 143. The premium on gold has declined from 32 to 31 per cent. In consequence of renewed orders by this packet to buy on American account, American securities were firmer after the recognised hours this afternoon. The Liverpool cotton market to-day was very flat, with sales to the extent of only 550 bales. In connection with the rise in Greek Bonds, a belief is still expressed amongst the Greek com munity in London that the provisional government just inaugurated will apply to the English Govern ment to give them Prince Alfred for King. Bills on the Continent were again in demand this afternoon, and the tendency of the rates of exchange is still unfavourable to this country. Another British colony is in the market for a loan. The agents general for crown colonies have notified that they will receive tenders until 1 p.m. on the Bth November, for £200,000 of Mauritius Government Six per Cent. Debentures. The half yearly report of the directors of the Sambre and Meuse Railway Company recommends a dividend of 2s. 6d. per share. The numbers are published of various Three per Cent. Bonds of the Antwerp and Rotterdam Rail way Company, which were drawn by lot on tke 30th ult., and are payable on the Ist November. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. An active demand for discount accommodation is ex perionced in the general market, and also at the Back of England. Even the best description of short dEtted paper cannot be negotiated under 2 per cent., and the opinion very generally prevails that the official minimum will be raised 1 1- per cent. at the weekly meeting of the Bank directors to-morrow. Gold is now of about the same value in London as in Paris, bat about 3-10ths per cent. dearer here than in Hamburg. Lenders are invited by the agents' -general for Crown colonies for debentures, bearing 6 per cent. interest to the extent of £200,000, being the first instalment of a loan of £1,000,000 required for the construction of railways in Mauritius. The bonds will be for sums of £lOO, £2OO, and £5OO each, and redeemable in 20 years. Two o'CLocK. At a meeting of the shareholders of the Ocean - Marine Insurance Ccmpany to-day, Mr. Cato in the chair, it was resolved not to register the com pany under the Limited Liability Act of 1862. A meeting of the London and Provincial Marine Insurance Company also took place today, Sir Henry Locke, Bart., in the chair, when it was una nimously resolved to continue under the present rules, and not admit the company under the Limited Liability Act of 1862.

(Before the Chief Baron Pollock.) Edward Cramphorn was indicted for feloniously wounding . Bridget Mary Hartnell and Alexander Hartnell, with in tent to murder. The prisoner, it will be recollected, was a labourer re siding at Greenwich, and the female was a person to whom he had been paying his addresses. She objected to his doing so on account of his bad character, and he consequently be , came very inveterate towards her. On the evening when the offence was committed he pressed the young woman and her brother to partake of some beer. They refused ; but as soon as the brother turned his back the prisoner committed a murderous attack upon her, stabbing her three times in the breast and twice on the arm, The brother immediately went to the rescue of his sister, when he was attacked by the prisoner and re ceived no less than seven very serious wounds. When the prisoner was taken into custody he said he was sorry he had not killed the female, for then he should have been happy. The jury found him guilty of the intent to murder, and he was sentenced to penal servitude for 20 years. John Joseph Parker was indicted for feloniously shoot. ing Mathew Parker, his brother-in-law, with intent to murder him. Ths jury found prisoner guilty of wound ing with intent to do grievous bodily harm. Sentence was deferred. (Before Mr. Baron Martin.) THE MURDER AT TSLEWORTH. Robert Cooper was indicted for the wilful murder of Ann Jane Barsham, on the 7th of August last. The facts of this unfortunate affair have recently appeared in the newspapers. It will be recollected that the prisoner desetted from the army, and afterwards married the de ceased, but in consequence of a quarrel with the mother of the deceased he was compelled to return to his regiment, owing to information respecting him having been given by her, and then the deceased refused to cohabit with him. This incensed the prisoner, and he then hung about the residence of the deceased, ana in a short time after he showed three bullets to some persons, one of which he said was for . the deceased, another for her mother, and the other was for the man who should at tempt his capture after he had shot them. A short time after this the prisoner was seen walking with the deceased in a lane, near Isleworth, called Brazil-lane, where she met her death from a pistol shot, the weapon, it was alleged, having been discharged by the prisoner. Mr. Clarke, on the part of the Treasury, prosecuted ; and Mr. Best, of the Oxtord Circuit, defended. The following is a copy of a letter written by the pri soner : Isleworth, Wednesday Evening. lam wretched indeed. lam sorely depressed. I love my dear Annie. How can I see her with another man night after night, and promising me that she never do go with any man, but when I met her on Monday night at 12 o'clock or rather 1 o'clock on Tuesday morning arm in arm with another, and a little the worse for drink, and when I accosted her, and she did not scarcely notice me, my blood at the very moment curdled, my brains where hot with pas sion, and (Satan) that goes about like a roaring lion seek ing whom he can devour. lam his victim and may the Lord have mercy upon me (Lord have mercy upon me), Oh, I cannot live to see my dear dearest Annie that I love batter than my own life. Yes, I would starve for her. I have fallen on my bended knees while the tears fell like large drops of rain from mine eyes. I have begged time after time for her to be true to me, but she has deceived me, and 1 am discarded, and how can I live when she has trifled with me whom she once loved ; one who knelt on his knees and prayed to his God, from his heart, to guard her safe through her confinement, scarcely two years ago. Yes, I say for her, my dear, dearest, Annie, my heart bleeds for you. lam a wretched young man. I find you have deceived me. On Sunday, when I came from the country, you said you were happy to see me. I said lam overjoyed to see you, and how is our dear babe (Mary Ann) ? You said (dear Charlie) she is quite well, and you immediately kissed me. I gave you 10s. to put in your pocket, and you seemed quite glad and said, Charlie, you are very kind, and you spent the remainder of the day with me, but when I asked you to stop with me until Monday, you said you could not,and I found out you wanted to meet another,and he was the one you were wi th on Monday night between 12 and 1. Oh Annie, my dear, dearest, sweet Annie, how I love you; and that very day in Brentford Park you and I walked affectionately together with our little babe in your dear arms, and then you promised me that you would visit the Crystal Palace with me on the Tuesday, and that I was to come early in the morning. I gave you a sovereign, and you went and fetched everything you thought best to that amount out of pledge of your wearing ap parel, and I found that it was all yo u want e d from me. Your grandmother told me to come and have some supper along with you, and you told me in the park you would go to bed early, as we had not much rest on the Sunday night, for you and I did not go to bed at your grandmother's till halt-past 12 o'clock. I slept with you, an how affectionately you acted towards me, and promised that day week you would come back to your dear Charlie, but when I went home to supper you told your granny to say that you were gone to Turnham Green, but I myself thought different. Some change came over me, and cold me you were with another, and my steps were directed to Hounslow, and it was then that I met you arm in arm with another, and your wicked (Procuress) of a mother—a bad, bad woman—she brought you to ruin. Many a time hast t hou said those words to me ; and my dear, dear Annie, it is her that stole you from me, full of deceit. (Read the 7th chapter of Proverbs.) I was driven to commit the fatal deed, and oh, what an awful thing it is to commit murder, our dear babe left behind. Oh, young girls of Brentford, think of the result of tampering with a young man's feelings that love you. Take my advice and do not so to a man that loves you. Look at me, poor, wretched unhappy men, how ki n d I have b een to my Annie. People knows it in Brentford. (Mr. Upton does.) I cold him on Tuesday morning how unhappy I was. He pitied me. How can my Annie respect herself and go on board barges away down and up the river for two or three days, but the deed is done. Look to my child. Uood bye, farewell all who knew me. May God have mercy upon me. lam writing this in a publichouse iu Isleworth. Annie dear, dearest Annie, if you had not tampered with me, I should not ha ve f e l t th e pangs I now feel. How could you pull the young man's face downwards to yours and kiss him time after time, in front of me, and tell him you loved him, and yet told me quite different. Did I not send you 10s. anti 7s. weekly w hen I was away from you. I have wronged you, I confess , but I have been forgiven by you, and y ou told me my kindness made you so th.t you could n o t rest away fromme. You really did love me ; but your mother was the serpent. I have suffered for her, and bad h as come to her. She is the cause of all this. Good bye, dearest Annie. Oh, that I could lie in your grave with y ou, that we could be buried together, but I shall lie elsewhere. I have watched and guarded you and my heart has been breaking for you a long time. You remember telling me your grandmother gave you those b ru i se d eyes you h ad a few weeks ago, but Annie I have found you told me a falsehood. It was at Ealing Fair, by some man. You have deceived me cruel-hearted Annie. Thomas Turner, George Lights (bargeman), James Priberg, at Hounslow, and other men WL OM you cohabit with I hope will remembe r see ing me. Th e y may live to think of the manner in which you and I met our deaths. And all young females take warning from m e , d o not deceive one that loves you.

SRAM DISTRESSED LANCASHIRE WEAVERS.—CAUTION TO THE BENEVOLENT.—T WO fellows named Thomas 08- borne and Daniel Donovan, both of whom were got up to represent distressed Lancashire weavers, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt, by Thomas Turner, Mendicity officer, with standing in a public place with a placard exciting charity. Donovan said the reason wriy they ran from the Totten ham-court-road was because they did not get enough there. They sang a song like other street " musicianers," and then exhibited cotton for sale. lut ner said that there were at present a large number of fellows about representing themselves as weavers. DRUNK on NoT DanNx 7—A respectable-looking young man, named Thomas Thompson, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being drunk and riotous. On being placed in the dock, Sergeant Foinett, 14 C, stated that he saw the defendant drunk and riotous in the Haymarket, and took him into custody. The defendant denied that he was drunk, when Inspector Wilson and Sergeant Joy, 9 C, both swore that he was. Mr. Tyrwhitt said as the defendant had been locked up he thought it was sufficient, and dis charged him. The defendant, not being satisfied with this, and still energetically denying that he was drunk, making some reflections on the police, and stating that he had wit nesses, Mr. Tyrwhitt adjourned the case. On coming up again, Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for the defendant, and slid the defendant's wit nesses were not pres , -nt, and acting on his advice, the de fendant would accept his worship's decision of the previous day. Mr, Tyrwhitt said that at the time ho thought the defendant had better have taken that course, but as he de nied the charge, and said he had witnesses, he had no other alternative but to adjourn the case. In now discharging the defendant he wished it to be perfectly understood that he in no way meant to impugn the truthfulness of the evi dence of the police. SOUTHWARK. DARING ROBBERY.—A young man named William Saunders, was charged before Mr. Maude with stealing a pair of boots, value 4s. 6d., the property of Henry Fuller, a boot and shoemaker in business, at 43, Union-street, Borough. THAMES. Mr. Knox, of the Marlborough -street Police-court, officiated this day for Mr. Selfe. TYING UP A DRUNKARD. --John Marks, an elderly man, was charged with being drunk and disorderly, and assaulting Mr. William Shields, a sail maker, of Bridal road, Poplar. MANSION-HOUSE. THE BANK-NOTE PAPER h OEBERY.—This morning William Burnett and a female who gave the name of Ellen Burnett, were placed before the Lord Mayor charged with being concerned, with the other persons now in custody, in the late robbery of Bank of England note-paper from the works of Messrs. Portal, at Laverstock. Mr. Preshtleld, the solicitor to the Bank of England, said the prisoners were apprehended yesterday by Sergeant Spittal, of the City police force and detective Leaper, of the Hampshire constabulary at Birmingham, and all he proposed to do was to call on the witnesses whe were examined before his lordship yesterday to repeat their evidence and then ask for a remand in order that all four prisoners might be placed at the bar together on Wednesday next. Mr. Marfill, inspector of notes of the Bank of England, and John Moss, having reiterated their evidence, The prisoners were remanded. EXTRAORDINARY MAGISTERIAL DECISION. Maria Jones and Sarah Proctor, two well known Chelsea thieves, the latter of whom has been convicted, were charged with stealing half •a-crown, under the following circumstances : Charles Miller, a poor lad about 17, who obtains his living by singing songs in the street, said he was following his usual calling last night when the servant at a publio house threw him out half-a-crown, in mistake ho Rupposed for a penny piece. He picked it up, and going to the corner of the street was looking at it when the prisoners came up, and Proctor seizing the half-crown from him passed it to the other, and tried to make off. He tried to follow them, when Jones said she would knock his brains out, and Proctor knocked him down on the kerb stone. A young gentleman named William Marshall said, he did not see the robbery, but saw an altercation going on between the prisoners and the lad, in the course of which the women and their companions surrounded the lad, and ill-treated him very much. Police-constable Edwardes, 241 A, said he had been to the servant at the public-house spoken of, and found she had given the half-crown in mistake. She had not dis covered it till witness went to her. Witness in endeavour ing to take the prisoners entered a low beer-shop, and the landlord let them out the backway, so that they escaped for the time, but they were subsequently apprehended. Proctor denied that she had been present during the robbery. Mr. Paynter said no robbery had been committed, as first of all the money did not belong to the complainant, and next it was evidently a scramble as to who should have it. He should only convict Proctor of the assault, and sentence her to pay 205., or be committed for 14 days. Jones must be discharged. The decision appeared to take every one in court by surprise. Turner said that between six and seven the previous evening he saw the two prisoners standing on the edge of the kerb in the Tottingham-court-road, near a publickouse. Donovan had a placard round his neck with the words " Cotton weavers. In very great distress ;" and Osborne had a small box in his hand, with a few pieces of cotton in it. He (Turner) heard a lady ask one of them where they were from, and he replied, " Ashton, in Lanca shire;" and he then watched them, and saw them receive money from nine different persons. He then went to get a constable to assist in taking them into custody, and as soon as they saw the constable making his approach they ran off. They then went to the corner of the TOttenham-court read, where they said they were from Preston, and received more money. He (Turner) then went and got Sergeant Lambert to assist him, and the prisoners seeing them coming ran off. Determined not to lose the prisoners, he got into a cab and pursued the prisoners into Crown street, where he found they had " pitched" (stood) again, and that a man and woman were near them who were there to receive the " swag," as it was called. On recognising him (Turner) again, the prisoner Donovan tore up the placard, but he (Turner) managed to secure the pieces, and with assistance took the prisoners into custody. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhiit, who wished to know where the prisoners came from, the officer said that they were both long residents of Westminster. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he considered the case one of some im portance. It was quite clear that the distress in the North was a thing to be compassionated by everybody, and it was a thing caught hold of in consequence by everybody to get charity. The prisoners were evidently just the fellows to impose on people, especially Donovan. He should like fur ther evidence that the prisoners were residents of West minster, because if that was proved, they were the very persons for punishment. He would remand them for a week. The prosecutor said that the boots were hanging on the rail outside the shop, and he missed them about five o'clock yesterday afternoon, and he then saw the prisoner running across the road in the direction of the new street. He told his shopman to follow him, and the latter suc ceeded in overtaking him, when he found the boots under his coat. He brought him back to the shop, and prose cutor then gave him into custody—the prisoner not offering any observation as to how the property came into his possession. This evidence was confirmed by the shopman, and it appeared that the prisoner was well. kn wn to the police. Sentenced to three months' hard labour, It appeared that the prisoner, who has been in good cir cumstances, applied yesterday afternoon to Mr. Shields for employment. The complainant said, " I have no work for you, and if I had I should not employ you in the state you are in." The prisoner, who was very much intoxicated, used very bad language, and struck the complainant on the nose. Mr. Shields and his son, a boy, were unable to re move the prisoner from the sail loft they were in, and having sufficient materials at hand made the prisoner fast to a beam, and prevented him using either hands or feet. A constable was sent for, but one could not be found, and the prisoner was then set free and allowed to leave the said loft about 10 minutes afterwards. Mr Shields, accompanied by Mr Stokes, a witness, left the premises of the former, and were walking along the road when the prisoner accosted them, made use of threatening language, and attempted to strike Mr. Shields. He was then given into custody. The prisoner, a red-faced, bald-headed man, sa id he owned he was in fault, all the witnesses had told the truth, but he must object to being tied up. Mr. Knox said, if t h e complainant, his son, an d friend, ould had sufficient for ce t o ti e up a man in a sa i l loft, theY the premises. hav He s have used that fo h r o c u e ld in ha re v m e o in v ii in ic g ted the a defendan fl t ae. fromotn the prisoner if th e comp l a i nant h a d not ta k en the smart law hie own hands.

On Saturday last, before the Hon Colonel Scott and E. Wheler, T. Cotton, R. Greaves, and J. Machen, Esqrs. William Harrow, alias "Cock Harrow," from Coventry, was charged with trespassing in search of game in the parish of Stoneleigh, on the 16th inst. Mr. Wright, solicitor, appeared in support of the informa tion. In opening the case the latter observed that it was not one of an ordinary character. Mr. Wright then went on to say that on the 16th of this month the keeper was going along the road from Gibbet Hill to Stoneleigh village, when he saw defendant on the waste land by the road-side with a gun in his hand, apparently trying to get a shot at something which two dogs were hunting in the bushes. The law in this case was clear, for it had been decided in the Queen's Bench, in the case of Regina v. Pratt, argued on April 21, 1855, that where the evidence left no doubt that a person was on a public road for the purpose of killing game, the land on each side of which was a gentleman's private property, that person was as much a trespasser as though he had been on the land adjoining it. He then called George Knight, head gamekeeper to Lord Leigh, who said that while riding along the road from Gibbet Hill to Stoneleigh, about twelve o'clock on the. day in question, he saw a dog beating a field by the road side, and another dog beating the bushes on the waste land by the side of the road, and defendant with a gun in his hand trying to get a shot at something. A hare was run out of the bushes by one of the dogs, and when defendant saw wit ness he took his gun to pieces and put it into his pocket. Witness afterwards met a policeman, and returned and took the gun from the defendant, who produced a game certificate, aLel said that was the "little thing that would lick him." Defendant then told two of his companions, who had now come up, to run away with the dogs. The land on both sides of the road belonged to Lord Leigh, who was lord of the manor. Defendant, on being asked whether he had any questions to put to the witness, said it was of no use to say anything. He was there, and the dogs were there also, but the dogs did not belong to him. Mr. Knight, in reply to the bench, said the defendant refused to give his name. Upon being called on for his defence, the defendant said he had no witnesses to bring forward ; he should leave it with the magistrates to do what they thought right. He had no knowledge of being on trespass, and he did not go on the ground for that purpose. He thought when Mr. Knight found out that he had a certificate, he might have given him his gun and powder and shot back without keep ing them a week first. The Bench said that as this was the first time the defen dant had been before them he would be fined half the full penalty—namely, £l, and 17s. costs, and his license would now be forfeited. The defendant paid the money.—Birmingham Post: THE HARVEST IN FINLAND.--The Finland jour nal Suometer estimates at 630,000 souls the population which is suffering from the effect of the bad harvest in the Governments of Uleaborg, Knopf°, Wi,45, Tavastehus, and Saint Michel.

Very little English wheat was received fresh up to this morning's market. For both red and white qualities the trade ruled firm, and Monday's advance in prices was well supported. The supply of foreign wheat was tolerably extensive. Nearly all descriptions were in fair average request, and the currencies ruled firm. Floating cargoes of grain moved off steadily at full cur. rencies. Malting barley was very firm at Monday's prices, whilst other kinds fully supported that day's rates. The supply en offer was very moderate. The malt trade was steady, and prices were well sup. ported. Oats—the supply of which was very moderate—were in steady demand on rather higher terms. Beans met a slow sale at Menday's quotations. Peas changed hands somewhat slowly at late rates. In most kinds of flour a moderate business was transacted at full quotations. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK.

A letter from Vienna, dated the 24th of October, says:-- " The project for the renewal of the privilege of the Bank was to-day brought before the Chamber of Deputies as mo dified by the Committee of Finances. It is generally ex pected that it will be adopted by a majority ; but it is to be feared that it will not at once receive the approbation of the other contracting party—that is to say, of the Bank, if, ao is asserted, the Government intends to present it to the management of that establishment to be eithe accepted or rejected purely and simply without any ulterior negotia tions. And yet I hear that it will provoke some serious objections, which may be thus stated 1. The stipulation by which the 80,000,000 florins to be lent by the Bank to the State in exchange for the renewal of its privileges are not to bear the interest of 2 per cent. until the Bank has recommenced its payments in specie. The Bank will not accept this stipulation because the State,by not fulfilling its former obligations to the Bank, might very easily itself put it beyond the power of that estab - lishment to resume its payments. It must be owned that the Bank is right. "2. The duration of the privilege, limited to 10 years, appears to it too short. "3. The project wishes the State to participate, dating from 1867, in the pr, fits of the Bank as soon as they exceed 6 percent. The Bank affirms that this participation should not take place until the moment the debt of the State shall be reduced to the 80,000,000 lent by it. This is equitable. Moreover, the Bank claims that such participation of tho State in the profits made by it gives it no right to meddle either in its administration or in the establishment of its balance. It is right ;as also in claiming : "4. That the State shall formally renounce the right of issuing paper-money at forced currency. " 5. Finally, the Bank consents that the payment (stipu lated before) of the 20,000,000 to be repaid to it by the State in hard cash shall be prolonged, on condition that if the State is to make this payment in bills on foreign States it must make good all extra costs. " For all these motives the other contracting party—that is to say, the Bank, will at first refuse to accept the pro posed arrangement ; but I repeat that in the fear of seeing the privilege conferred upon another society, or its sphere of action restricted by he formation of provincial banks, it will end by making the best of a bad bargain." CHEIGHSTS AND PHARMACEUTISTS. (From the Lancet.) The recent Parliamentary recognition of the chemists who belong to the organisation of the Pharmaceutical So ciety, bg granting to them immunity from serving on juries, promises to answer in some measure the useful end which we foresaw, and which the members of the medical profes sion must, in the public interes, especially desire to bring about. Besides the pharmaceutical chemists, who aro at tested to possess the ordinary scientific qualifications ne cessary for the task of preparing and dispensing drugs, there is a motley host of traders outside this organisation who exercise the calling of chemists and druggists. Undoubt edly a considerable number of these are persons of respec tability, of sufficient attainments, and proper qualifications for their occupation. Some few, whom jealousy, iner tia, or peculiar circumstances have kept out of the pale of the society, are of considerable standing. But in the ragged army aro included numbers of chandler shop keepers, and the smallest dealers in sundries,—men who, as the Mayor, Mr. Goadsby, told his fellows i n th e d rug trade at a meeting last wee k o f the United So c i ety o f Chemists and Druggists at Manc hester, are "no more fit for their duties than they are to be cardinals of the Holy See." No parliamentary exemption could be given to such a body, for the simple reason that they could not define themselves., Free trade in poisons is in England car ried to such an extent that if it were on ce understood that a mere vendor of dru gs s h ou l d be exempt f r om serving on juries, every s h op k eeper i n tho kingdom wo uld add a few potent poisons to his articles of sale. i + day evening, Dr. y e s,er , A GROSS IMPROPRIETY.— s Arms Tavern Lankester held an inquiry at the of an adult, the coffin Castle-street, Long-acre, respecting death of a child which was found in a putrid stattiettousin where it had been placed surreps Siller, 6 , Princes-row, under the follow ing circumstances :—Mrs. On last Wednesday Pimlico, said that she was L a e friendrfstree t t ) . f Mrs. Norton, whore cently died at No. 28, T_o_w r. . p.

Yesterday morning the report of the commissioners appointed to inquire into the condition of the volunteer force in Great Britain was issued. The commissioners are of opinion that furtherlassistance should be rendered by the government, and, as the most expedient way of regulating the aid so as to secure the real efficiency of the force, they recommended amongst other things the following : "That there should be a grant from the government of 20s. per man for every light horse, engineer, mounted rifle, and rifle volunteer, who can produce a certificate, according to zt form to be prescribed by the Secretary of State, signed by the commanding officer and adjutant of his corps, or by the commanding officer and adjutant of the administrative battalion to which his corps belongs, that he has attended nine drills, six of which in the case of a consoli dated battalion, and three of which in the case of an admi nistrative battalion, should be battalion or troop drills, in the course of the preceding 12 months ; that he is efficient in drill, has been fully instructed in the manual and platoon exercise, and, in addition to the above drills, has gone through a course of musketry instruction to be laid down by the Secretary of State ; and also that he was present on parade (unless absent by leave of his commanding officer with the approval of the Secretary of State) on the day of inspection; and an additional grant of ten shillings per man for every volunteer who can produce a similar certifi cate that he has fired a certain amount of ball cartridge, according to regni.tin ne to be laid down by the Secretary of State. That in the case of a recruit 30 drills, including a short course of musketry instruction, should be substituted for the drills already enumerated, in order to qualify for receiving such certificate. That a power should be reserved to the inspecting officer to disallow the certifi cate of any man or body of men whose inefficiency may be manifest on parade. That the existing definition of an effective should be repealed. That divisional or brigade field days and official inspections should not be reckoned in the number of drills above specified. That in the case of artillery volunteers a further grant, beyond that already made by the Government, of 30s. per man should be made for every man who can produce a certificate signed by the commanding officer and adjutant of his corps, or by the commanding officer and adjutant of the administrative bri gade to which his corps belongs, that he has attended 12 gun drills in the course of the preceding 12 months ; has been present at the gun practice of his battery, and is an efficient gunner ; that he was present on parade (unless absent by leave of his commanding officer with the approval of the Secretary of State) on the day of inspection. During the first year of service :attendance at 30 drills, of which 24 should be gun drills, should be substituted for the condi tions above enumerated. That in addition to all other allowances a sum not :exceeding 4s. per head per annum for each member who has been certified as efficient, in any corps where the head-quarters are distant beyond th.e, miles from the place of meeting of the administrative, battalion to which it belongs, should be granted to the commanding officer of the battalion in aid of the expenses of conveying the members of such corps to battalion drills. That the adjutant should be responsible to the War-office, in the event of his being employed to act as paymaster, for all sums received on account of such corps, and for their having been expended strictly according to regulation, and that he should be put on the same footing as an adjutant of disembodied militia."
