"The charm of Mr. Kent's poetry, as it is the first condi tion of success to all poets, Is that he is in sympathy with his subject and not only with himself; that he is truly poet and not egotist.

' Shelley at Marlow' is a painting exquisitely delicate. The vision of Shelley with which Mr. Kent presents us is almost perfect. 'DREAMLAND' is a work conceived in a noble spirit, and executed with scholarly taste, frequently with flashes of true poetic inspiration. the Dying Bridegroom' is distinguished by a genuine pathos, which leads us to be lieve that Mr. Kent would succeed eminently in some story of the affections."—The London Review.

By F. B. COURTENAY, And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. " This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professicnal reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."--Medical Circular.

The arguments in the case of the Office of the Judge Promoted by the Rev. I. Fendall v. the Rev. H, B. Wilson, upon the admission of the articles of the indictment, were resumed yesterday morning, in the Arches Court, before Dr. Lushington, Dr. Lushington having asked the counsel for the prosecution why in their opinion, if criticism might be applied to one passage of the Bible, should it not be applied to the whole; where was the line to be drawn ; and if one miracle might be construed alle gorically why might not all the miracles be so con strued, Dr. Phillimore replied that there was a clear difference between legitimate liberty of opinion which the Church had always allowed, and that which was claimed under the term ideology. To question the verbal accuracy of a particular passage might be no offence, but to interpret as allegorical all the most prominent events recorded in the Scriptures was certainly beyond the liberty which the Church of England allowed to her clergy. With regard to the other point, the Church had not sanc tioned at all the use of ideology in the interpretation of miracles. Indivilual divines, in the supposed difficulty of comprehending a particular miracle, had treated it as allegorical; but no eminent divine in the Church had ever claimed the right to place an ideological construction upon all miracles when the plain and literal meaning served for their com prehension. The prosecution objected to Mr. Wil son that he claimed for every clerk the liberty of construing any miracle as each might please—a claim which struck at the root of miracles as evi dence of a divine revelation. Dr. Lushington—What you say, then, comes to this, that the court must find the line of demarca tion for itself. You say that there is a line, but the decision of the court must depend upon all the cir cumstances of the case. Dr. Phillimore—That is so. I cannot carry the definition further.' Dr. Deane, on behalf of the defendant, then pro ceeded to reply to ,the arguments anvanced by Dr. Phillimore and Dr. Swabey in support of the arti cles. He observed, in the first place, that his learned friends had completely misunderstood what was meant by ideology as used in the essay. Dr. Philli more had said that the essay contained the expres sion of a wish on the part of the writer that he and all others should be free from all fetters in the in terpretation of the Scriptures. In order to sustain the indictment against Mr. Wilson it must be shown that each of the separate charges was one upon which a conviction would lie ; it was not open to the prosecution to contend that there were particu lar passages which, though not containing sepa. rately sufficient upon which to found a conviction, yet the court ought to convict, because, taken col lectively, they showad the animus of the writer. There was ample authority in the Church, in the writings of her most eminent divines, against any notion of the inspiration of every word and line of the canonical Scriptures, and in all fundamentals and essentials inspiration was admitted by Mr. Wilson to exist. With regard to the question of the subscription of the Thirty-nine Articles, he was willing to admit that if there had been found in the defendant's writings any evasion of the great doc trine of Christianity, it was possible that Mr. Wil son might be brought within the terms of the in dictment. But so far from this being the case, the essayist had distinctly inculcated the doctrine of the incarnation in the words " so again the incar nification of the Divine Emmanuel remains ;" and he had inculcated the doctrine of the resurrection at page 162, where he said that the doctrine of the resurrection was a doctrine taught by the Saviour. The claim of the prosecution upon this matter of subscrip was that the articles were to be subscribed in the plain literal meaning of the words and sentences, It would be remembered that in the Gorham case the plain literal meaning of the articles was in question, and two great courts of judicature differed in opinion upon it; so that even as to the literal meaning of the articles there was a difficulty of construction which must leave some liberty of opinion to the clergy. In practice, the Act of Uniformity bound the clergy, but in matters not of fact, and which were not fundamental or essential principles, how could they obtain that universal agreement of opi nion which they must establish, or the case for the prosecution failed ? What the prosecution con tended was that clergymen must agree in matters of opinion or quit the Church. Was it essential to man's salvation that he should believe in angelic appearances, or in the literal truth of the story of Saul and the Witch of Endor ? The Church of Rome had fixed the meaning which it attached to certain doctrines, and had fallen into the error of transubstantiation; and to avoid such dangers the Church of England had in these matters wisely left the door open. He was surprised that this prose cution was ever entered upon, because it seemed to him that if the proceedings against the writers of the volume of " Essays and Reviews" were wise at all, it would have been well to have stopped for the result of the first case before opening a second. There were seven essays, and they were all said to be very bad. One of the essayists was dead and another was a layman ; but there were still three other cases in which proceedings must be taken, or the prosecutors must say, " The whole book is bad —but we think the essays of Dr. Williams and Mr. Wilson are the two worst." In that case it would be said that the bishops and 9,000 of the clergy had condemned the book throughout, but had only the courage to venture against these two, and that they were mistaken, therefore, in their original opinion that all of the essays contained erroneous doctrines. It would seem, however, if all that was said were true, that there were greater errors and dangers in others of the articles. He greatly regretted that these prosecutions had been undertaken at all ; but whatever might be the ultimate decision, he was quite certain that the articles of indictment must be reformed before the court could admit any of them. Dr. Lushington—l shall not give judgment in the case of Dr. Williams or in this until the case of " Burder v. Heath" has been heard and decided upon by the Privy Council. They are the same in genus though very different in species, and it is my hope and expectation that something may fall from their lordships on that occasion that may tend to throw some light upon the course which it will be my duty to pursue in conformity with their decision. But I hope very soon after that judgment has been delivered to be able to pronounce my opinion it both of these cases. Dr. Phillimore—The 26th of March is fixed for the hearing of " Burder v. Heath" by the Privy Council. Letters received at Chatham from her Majesty's screw steamer Cadmus, 21, Capt. H. S. Hilly ar, C. 8., announce that that vessel had been detained Antigua to await the decision of the Prize Courts relative to the slaver Lyra, which had been cap tured by the Cadmus. The latter vessel was, how ever, expected to leave for St. Thomas on the 12th of February last. Yesterday afternoon the Admiral's steam yacht Wildfire, Mr. a Brockman masts r-commander, steamed into Chatham harbour, having on board, Vice-Admiral W.. Hope Johnstone, Commander-in- Chief at the Nore. After landing at the dockyard and transacting official business, the Admiral went on board the training ship Wellesley, 72, Comman der R. Studdert, which he minutely inspected. After spending nearly two hours on boat d, Admiral John stone re-embarked on board the Wildfire and re turned to the Formidable, 84, flagship at the Nore. The hired screw steam trasport Mauritius. No. 6, Capt. Donald Cruickshanks, belonging to Mr. Bigby, of London, which arrived in Plymouth Sound on Sunday, as already reported in The Sun, left Halifax on the 14th of February, and from the 17th „jog' experienced very heavy weather. On the 20th, in lat. 44 38 N. ...42 50 W., in' a gale from the north-west, force 9 , 10, and 11 , she lost her jibboom, foro topsail yard, sails, and starboard lifeboat, and stove in three other boats. She was afterwards compelled to lay to for two days. On departure, the floating ice prevented the pilot's boat from ap proaching the ship, and he was obliged to come on in her. Her Majesty's screw steam frigate Orlando,. 50, Capt. Francis Scott, C.B. ; the paddlewheel steam sloop Hydra, 6, Commander Richard V. Hamilton ; and the screw steam corvette Orpheus, 21, Capt. William F. Burnett, C. 13., were in harbour at Halifax. The corvette was coaling, and was ap pointed to leave on the 19th of February for her station, Australia. There was no indication of the departure of the Orlando for Bermuda, as previously reported. The hired steam transport Adriatic, frozen in at Sidney, was likely to remain two months longer in the ice. The day before the Mau ritius left, a steam transport had arrived with the 96th Regiment, which, with the Ist battalion of the 15th, expected from England in the Adelaide, Capt. Froude, will garrison St. John's. With the exception of one field battery of Royal Artillery, all the troops have been pushed up from St. John's to Canada, and not one man has been lost on the route, The Revenge,steamshipra Robert 89, Smart, K.H., Capt. Charles F e o e screw w esflag ofßearA d and the screw steamship St. George, 84, Capt. the Hon. Francis Egerton, from Queenstown, arrived in Plymouth Sound yesterday morning. On the 28th ult. Commodore Yelverton, C. 8., Controller-General of the Coastguard, inspected Her Majesty's ship Edinburgh, ; lying off Queens ferry, in the Firth of Forth. He 'was highly pleased with the manner in which the men of the Naval Reserve and those attached to the ship performed the usual exercises. The reason for the inspection was the termination of Capt. D'Eyncourt's period of service. The departure of this officer is univer sally regretted. His successor is Capt. C. F. Schomberg, who joined the ship the day after the inspection. In the Royal Naval Reserve the Lords Commis. sinners of the Admiralty have appointed Charles Henry Evans Judkins to be an hon. lieut., and George Cornelius Carrew and Allen William Young to be lieuts. A letter from the Secretary of the Admiralty has been addressed to the Board of Trade expressing his satisfaction in forwarding the com mission constituting Mr. Charles H. F.. Jue.kins an hon. lieu't. in thb-itiTiil Naval Reserve, as a mark of approbation of his conduct while in command of the contract packet Persia, employed in conveying troops to North America. They are about to have another State trial at Armagh. The Attorney and Solicitor General have gone down there to prosecute the parties charged with riot and assaults at Derrymacash. Mr. Justice Fitzgerald, in his charge to the Grand Jury on Saturday, said that the very name of Derrymacash almost made him shudder. A period of 20 months had elapsed since that unhappy conflict,- and one might suppose that it would have been forgotten before this time. Trials relating to it had taken place at the two assizes in 1861. At the last the Protestants had the great good sense to plead guilty. Now the subject was revived again by the prose cution of the Roman Catholics who took part in the rioting. It was very desirable that it should be known in the county that if Orange processions did take place the Roman Catholics had no right to interfere. They might apply to the constituted authorities, might give information to the police, and adopt measures for making the processionists responsible for their violation of the law; but they had no right to take the law into their own hands. The fact that Mr. Justice Fitzgerald is a Roman Catholic increases the importance of the following emphatic testimony to the unrival led advantages of the British Constitution, which may serve as a set-off against the ravings of the Ultramontanists :—" You will deprecate, as I do, that this country is subject to a system which makes other nations believe that we are not yet removed from a state of comparative bar barism. If we read history we ought to do it with out allowing it to sway our feelings and passions. We ought to be content to know its results, and not to make those results the cause of offence to others. One of these results which we enjoy in this country under the sway of our present Queen is that liberty which is the envy and happiness of other nations, not of that continent only, but of the world; that we have a degree of freedom—freedom of thought, freedom of action, freedom to do and speak what we please within the bounds of the law, and the great freedom, too, to believe and follow any religious opinion which we may please—in truth, that we have that degree of freedom which is founded on reason and justice to all ; and we ought to be con tent with it, and not subject ourselves to the loss of that freedom by crime." _ _ At the opening of the Cork Assizes, on Saturday, Mr. Justice Keogh, who presided in the County Court, complimented the grand jury on the state of the county, which he pronounced most creditable." The calendar contained but 29 cases, half of which were larcenies, and the others of the most ordinary character. The city of Cork is also remarkably free from crime. The calendar contains but six oases, only one of which—a charge of manslaughter—is of a serious nature. Baron Hughes, addressing the city grand jury, said he had ascertained that dur ing the last six months the convictions amounted only to 97, which bore but a very small proportion to the population of the city—about 86,000 per sons. His lordship said he considered this state of things most satisfactory, and attributed it to the excellent management and vigilance of the magis trates and police, not less than to the good conduct of the people. The _Longford Journal makes an announcement, which, if true, removes all doubt as to the issue of the contest in that county. It was reported that Lord Longford, owing to some family difference, had resolved to support Major O'Reilly, and that gentleman boasted of the circumstance at the hustings. But it seems that the revolutionary cha racter of the Major's address, his determination to use his influence in Parliament for the destruction of the Established Church, and the unmitigated sec tarianism of his policy, convinced him that it would be a monstrous inconsistency to expect his tenants to vote for such a candidate against a gentleman of the county like Colonel White. The Nation complains bitterly that " a number of Catholic placeholders, or place-expectants have ordered their tenants to vote against the Catholic candidate, and in favor of Colonel White. It has learned that Baron Hughes wishes his tenants to vote for Colonel White." THE ARMY. His Royal Highness the General Commanding in-Chief will hold a levee at 1 o'clock on Friday next, the 7th inst. The 2d battalion of the 16th and the 2d battalion of the 17th Regiments are to garrison Halifax, in succession to the 62d and 63d Regiments, which have been four or five years there and are now gone to Canada. Contrary to the usual practice, the officers and men of the Royal Engineers at head-quarters, Chat ham, have been employed, without any intermis sion, during the whole of past winter in the out door field-work operations on the practising ground, in order that the companies intended to be des patched to India and the colonies during the present season may be thoroughly acquainted with the vari ous details connected with sapping and mining, for tifications, and military engineering before leaving Chatham. There are now about 300 officers and men employed on the field-works, the whole of whom will have completed their coursQ of instruc tion on April 1. In addition to those officers and men now under instruction a large body of Engineers have completed their practical course on the field works, and these are employed in the laboratory, workshops, schoolroom, and the various scientific departments at the Royal Engineer establish ment, awaiting the orders for their trans fer to those companies requiring augmenta tion with skilled Engineers. A number of Royal Engineers will be required for the 20th company, which has been ordered home from Aus tralia after an absence of 11 years. The 20th com pany was employed at the Great Exhibition of 1851, and was immediately afterwards despatched to Western Australia, to assist in the colonization of the district around Freemantle, where the com pany erected the large convict establishment and other Government buildings, and was also em ployed at the Great International Exhibition, as well as the 26th company, now going through their annual course of rifle drill, will both require aug mentation from the detachments at head-quarters. A large number of men are now employed on the marshes between the Thames and Medway, near Chatham, in preparing the extensive tract of land which has been purchased by the Government to be used as a rifle-range for the officers and trooops from Chatham garrison, who will be quartered at Gravesend during the time they are under rifle in- struction. The site selected is an exceedingly secluded one, and in every respect admirably adapted for the purposes to which i t will be applied. The h u t-b arr acks being erected at Gravesend fo r th e men will be com cnegr summer,s and and will provide quarters for about 700 of fi cers and troops, who will p ac ie c t o e m dd io u d r a in ti g on the of en o s ffi ui be sent from Chatham garrison as soon as the new building are ready to receive them, and the rifle range is prepared for their commencing practice. The total cost of the new barracks, together with the purchase of the land, will be about £70,000, of which 149,600 has already been voted, leaving the remainder to be voted during this and the next Session. _ .

The City House of Commons held a special meet ing yesterday in the Council Chamber, Guildhall, for the purpose of receiving a report from the Bridge House Estates Committee, in reference to certain proceedings proposed to be adopted by the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway Company, in relation to the property of the Corporation upon the south side of Blackfriara bridge. The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor presided, and there was also a full attendance of members of the Upper Bench. It will be recollected that at the last meeting of the Court a report was made by the Bridge House Estates Committee, detailing the steps that were proposed to be taken by the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway, to deal with the public stairs on the south side of the bridge, and other property be longing to the Corporation on the same spot, and the Court was asked to empower the committee to confer with the railway company, with a view, if possible, to come to some amicable arrangement, and, if not, to empower them to oppose the bill in Parliament ; it being understood that no step should be taken without receiving the sanction of the Court. The report was read, and it appeared from it that the committee had been in communication with the solicitor, engineer, and secretary of that company, with respect to the said bill, and particularly with respect to the road and footway in front of Albion place, on the south side of Blackfriars-bridge, in tended to be taken by the said bill for the purpose of a railway station for the company, which it was proposed by the committee should be left, so as to preserve it for the use of the public ; but the com pany would not accede to that proposal, The com mittee, therefore, feeling that the road and footway in front of Albion-place should be preserved as an ornament to the south side of the bridge, and as a proper means of access to the stairs of the present as well as of the proposed new bridge, recommended that they should be empowered to prosecute the petition agreed to by the Court against that bill. _ . Mr. H. WELLINGTON VALLANCE, chairman o: the Bridge House Estates Committee, briefly ex plained the facts to the Court, and said the com mittee had been waited upon by a deputation from the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway, and the committee had explained to the deputation the inconvenience that would arise from such an en croachment ; but he regretted to say that they would not agree to the proposal of the committee. He said not only did they want to encroach on Albion-place, but they proposed making four lines of rails across Holland-street, upon a level with that street ; and it seemed to him that it was the duty of the Corporation to resist those encroach ments. He concluded by moving the adoption of the report. Mr. BLAKE, in seconding the motion, said that he represented the interests of those on that side of the water, and informed the Court that the in habitants had already petitioned Parliament against the encroachment. Mr. HARTRIDOE said he wished to call the atten tion of the Court to a serious charge of delay that was made at a meeting of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway Company at which he hap pened to be present, and he hoped the chairman of the Bridge House Committee would reply to the charge, and show that the Corporation were not to blame in the matter. Mr. HOLBOYD stated that the design for the proposed bridge of the company had long since been sanctioned by the Admiralty and Thames Board of Conservancy, and the corporation had not yet given / their deoiaion in the matter, and nothing more than wanted to en able the a bl e approvalthe contractorsof the immediately corporation lv to as commence. M Peto said that, as a cont r actor , he i r ;:?! that his firm had grievous c ause of com p laint a g ainst corporation. They bad secured all the land u p to Holland-street and Earl -s t reet at a cost of not less than £13,000, and they had ex p ended £28,000 in plant and machinery, and had lost the interest on the money for the last ten months, and still matters remained in their present state. Mr. HARTRIDGE said he h ad no s y mpathy with the company; still he should li ke to hear somejus tification for the delay. " sr t Mr. VALLANCF said that the public Mign nut gine that the plan of a five-arched bridge of the company had been approved of by the Admiralty Board and the Thames Board of Conservancy. The fact was, that the company had sent in a plan for a nine-arched bridge, thinking the corporation were going to build a bridge with nine arches, and that had been approved of ; but when a five-arched bridge was contemplated by the corporation, the company withdrew their plan of nine arches, and presented a plan for a bridge with five arches, which, it had been asserted, had been approved by the Admiralty and Thames Conservancy Boards, and he had invited Mr. Holroyd to make a public refutation of that assertion. He had then seen that no such approbation had bpihn_ gix_en, and he (the speaker) knew, of his own knowledge, that such was the case. Mr. Deputy FRY said he was one of the board of the Thames Conservancy, and 1 3 ,e, new thit iteir sanction had not been grantedtfltifFof fi've arched bridge, which had been t UWisiby the Co pany, after withdrawing their planVerce,'b"rAt with nine arches. Mr. VALLENCE said he might add that he had since received a communication from the company to the effect that, if the Corporation decided upon building a bridge with three arches, they are quite willing to build a bridge with three arches likewise. The motion was then put and carried. DR. GUTHRIE ON FREE TRADE. (From the Caledonian Mercury.) At a conversazione held in Dundee in connection with the Chamber of Commerce, Dr. Guthrie made a long speech, in the course of which he said—l believe you will find the principles of free trade as now enunciated and ußderstood to be in perfect harmony with divine truth. There are several grand conclusions deducible from the most en lightened principle of commerce, but I will not detain you by mentioning more than one or two of them. One of the first and best—certainly not the worst—is that every nation has its account in the prosperity of its neighbour. If you look to the Shorter Catechism—those of you who know it—you will find in that Shorter Catechism, founded on the Word of God, that we are to " further our neighbour's estate." Now, it used to be the old rule in trade—" Do not further your neighbour's estate, but prevent it; destroy the eommerce of France and we will thrive; destroy the commerce of the Continent and we merchants in Dundee, Liverpool, London, Glasgow, and else where, will gain by it," That was against the Bible, and it is against the truth. The more France thrives, the more we thrive; the more Selland thrives, the more we thrive ; the better the harvest ware h n a e r F em r a ot a rh e c e e yp t o h wt t e r m l y o b rt buy, ye y f y twh o i r more sailcloth eo rm t os e hr y ei r w e i l broad , ro buy a Sheffield a- , cloth they will buy, the more linens they will buy from Ireland and from Angus. (Great ap plause.) The tide that swells upon the shores of France comes in time to swell upon our own. And now, men of commerce have come to see that their prosperity does not lie in the disasters of other countries, but in their prosperity too — (Applause.) And, my dear friends, what is that hut the old blessed Bible rule ?—" Rejoice with them that do rejoice ;" and (as you in Dundee and in Lancashire and Lanarkshire, and in all parts of the country, are now learning), from the state of America at this moment, and the damage it was doin to our own trade, we are taught also to " weep with them that weep." There is another grand principle of trade, as now understood, which I want to bring out as also clearly in harmony with Scripture—because, while addressing gentle men in the way of commerce, I cannot forget, and I hope will never forget anywhere, that I am a minister of the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ—and that is, that no nation should grasp at more trade than naturally falls to its share. That is a conclusion now deducible from the most enlightened principles of commerce, and I say it is also in harmony with the Word of God. That was not the old way of it. You tried to force trade by bounties. That was more than fell to your Aare. You tried to exclude from your harbours and chief towns the produce of other countries by heavy customs and dues and taxes; and thus you tried to force trade. That was the old way of it 1 here. It is the way of America. still; it is the way of many other countries on the Continent still; but it is contrary to the laws of Providence and in the end therefore must be unprofitable. (Applause.) I was very much struck with that while I was last autumn in Italy. Every coun try, you see, in the marvellous arrangements of Providence, has something peculiar to itself. One country raises one kind of produce, and another another, and there is a grand principle in that. God intends by that to bind this world together in the bonds of love, and brotherhood, and unity, and concord, and interest, and peace; and I believe that that cold, wretched system of anti-free trade was S e ptember.

The wheat harvest, no doubt, was gathered in, but the ground was covered with Indian corn, with its gigantic stem, its broad russet eaves, and its prodigious head. The soil, that here is dry as the ashes or the hearth, was strewed with enormous melons—golden gourds—the land was planted with mulberry trees, the leaves of which are used to feed the silk-worm—and from the airy minarets of the noblest of man's works—the Duomo of Milan—well called " a mine of money and a mountain of marble," on which there are no less than 4,000 marble statues—the summit of that noble building presenting a perfect forest of them — and from which, through the transparent atmo sphere, you see the range of the Alps—Mont Blanc on this side, then Mont Rosa in the centre, then the Stolberg on the east—on to the tmaioass h ou a n n at. d a is h t u an n t dr p ed art m o il f es th a e wa T y y , ro b l ut m s o e u e n n ta moshere of such transparency thatiaus do not y are from seem further away than the Gram o p u look over a you.

Although the wind had considerably abated, and the day was compara tively fine throughout, it was notified that the tar gets were much below the rating of the former days From the tone of the public press in reference to the alleged favouritism shown in the endeavour to uphold the superiority of the Whitworth weapon, it was suggested by the Council that a document should be drawn up and laid on the Council table,, and that each of the competing gunmakers should_ signify his assent 17 affixing his signature thereto. Lord Elcho, whose impartiality throughout the proceedings has.never been called in question, but whose courtesy and affability in all matters in de bate have been every day the theme of applause, as chairman of the Council, laid the document before the assembled competitors, the terms of which were as follows : " We are satisfied with the arrangements that have been made by the Council of the National Rifle Associatioi2 for the competitive trial of small-bore rifles, which have been conducted with fairness and impartiality." Mr. Ingram stated that in justice to his own con viction he was unwilling to attest the paper, and would take no further hand in the matter. He thereupon took up his slide and withdrew ; and up to the moment of our quitting the spot there ap peared a manifest inclination to follow his example. The proceedings were announced for renewal this day at 1 p.m., and it was likewise stated that the contest would positively close at about 4, after which the result of each day's target will be offi cially given for publication. Before leaving the ground Mr. Ingram was called upon by the Coun cil to favour them with a statement in writing as a reply to their demand, which he gave as follows: " I hereby protest against the manner in which the triel of small-bore rifles has been conducted, as I cannot but consider that certain parties competing have all along been allowed advantages over the others, in so far that Mr. Whitworth was allowed more trial shots by two than any others. lie also shifted his rest during the time of shoot ing his diagram, which was strictly forbidden by the rules laid down ; and, further, that the many changes made by the Council since the commencement of trial justify me in this protest, " CHARLES INGRAM, "Council-tent, March 3." Lord Elcho used great exertiod . to persuade Mr. Ingram that his objections were groundless, and that the great cause of complaint—viz., the objec tionable target—should be fired over again ; but his lordship's attempts at conciliation were unsuc cessful, and Mr. Ingram withdrew from further contest. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sir,—ln the notice of the "Trial of Small-bore Rifles at Woolwich," in The Sun of to-day, it is reported that Mr. Henry, of Edinburgh, " stated that with his own ordinary rest he would regu late six rifles in the time which Mr. Whitworth would require to adjust two only, and after he had furnished (finished?) he (Mr. Henry) would shoot his six against Mr. Whitworth for any sum ‘rhich ho rnmy ohnoco to name." We accept the proposition, and shall cc nappy to shoot six Whitworth rifles against six made by Mr, Henry at 500 yards, or any greater distance, for £5OO or £l,OOO. The rifles to be the same weight as those used in the competitive trials now going on (91 maximum), each competitor to use " his own ordinary rest," or any rest he likes, and the mean of 20 or any greater number of shots to decide which is the winner. _ _ In case our rifles should prove successful, wo would propose to hand over the amount realized to the National Rifle Association. We would remark that it is a mistake to suppose that the mechanical shooting rest is used for the purpose of sighting rifles ; it is employed solely for the purpose of test ing the efficiency of a rifle and its ammunition. We are, Sir, your most obedient servants, THE WHITWORTH RIFLE COMPANY. Manchester, March 3. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sir,—ln the notices of the Woolwich rifle trials which have appeared in The Sun, there have been some inaccurate statements relating to myself which I should be glad to have corrected. It is not cor rect that I have acted a s the um p ire in these trials ; and I am not aware that the Council, of which I am a member , have appointed any umpire, and cer tainly not any so le um p ire. for the use of the I did not order any particular telescope or any t e lescope at all, to be supplied Council. With respect to the insinuation that I have a bias in favour of the - Whitworth rifle, I beg to say that I view with marked affection a really good rifle, and have been always anxious to obtain the best I can. The results show that my judgment has not deceived me. But I challenge anyone to mention an instance where a rifle brought to Hythe to be tested has not had all the assistance I could render, and bcon fairly reported upon. The quasi imputation of partiality with regard to the compe titive trials at Woolwich is not worthy of being re • futed. I had not the power, and certainly not th® will, to show favour to any competitor, least of all to one with regard to whom it may be said— ,4 Non tali auxilo, nee defensoribus t . • is, Tempus eget."

TIIE AMERICAN STEAMERS. —Some little anxiety prevailed in Liverpool as to the non -arrival of the screw steamer City of Baltimore, which was to sail from New York on Saturday, the 15th ult. No intelligence of her had been received in Liverpool up to four o'clock yesterday afternoon. The prevailing strong easterly winds are con sidered sufficient to account for the delay, which it is pre sumed may have caused the stock of fuel to run short.
