ARTILLERY COMPANY: Yesterday the officers and men of this most ancient military corps assembled at the fine parade ground, Finsbury, to go through their customary drill celebration of her Majesty's birthday, The weather, unfortunately, was very-much against this display, and operated so injuriously upon the atten dance of the members of the corps that very little more than 100 out of the full strength of 400 officers and men were on the -ground. The companies were under the command of Major Middleton, and paraded soon after three o'clock. Twentv-onc guns . having been fired by the artillerymen, and a feu de joie in honour of the day, the companies marched past at slow and quick time, and afterwards went through all the evolutions of which so small a body was capable.- Taking everything in taconsideratiOn, all the movements were performed exceedingly well —not perhaps with the quickness or precision of regular troops, but certainl-T with steadiness 'and good order which came very near it, and which showed that the drill had been no matter of form, : and - that a very little additiOnal practice would suffice to place the corps on a par with the average of regimentg of the Line. , The artillerymen served their pieces with quite as much rapidity and care as. is displayed by our field batteries, and the firing of the companies in volley was exact to a second. There was nothing in this celebration more note worthy than in other similar displays which have always been made on these occasions, and' our object in noticing it is to direct -public attention to the existence-of this organised body at, a time when the, note of preparation for the establishment of Volun teer corps is ringing throUgh the land. The Hon. Artillery COmpany, notwithstsnding that the num; ber of its .members has of late years rather dimi nished, is the oldest and at the same time one of the best volunteer corps of its kind in Eng land. .The 'system of drill and training is admi rable, and the organisation of the Company, whether appertaining to.effic:_ency of discipline or to the management of its own wants and concerns, is excellent. The corps was established as early as the commencement of the reign of- lienry VIII., and the prints and effigies which yet remain of its arms and equipments at that time—the men cased in heavy mail and armed with heavier crossbows, may well raise a smile among the present members of the same Company, who wear nothing more de fensive than scarlet broadcloth, and who are armed with the light but deadly Enfield rifle. With the general introduction of cannon, the companies of the regiment received pieces of ordnance, and were trained to use them with such skill and coolness as to gain the title of Artillery Company for the whole body. From that hour to the present the Company has existed with a greater or less number of mem bers, and more or less efficiently trained according as the exigencies of the nation seemed likely or. not to stand in need of such aid in London. During this long interval the records of the Company have been carefully kept, and among the names of the colonels or members of the corps we find the auto graphs of the most distinguished Sovereigns, war riors, and noblemen of the period. The names of Charles 1., Charles 11., the Duke of York, Rupert, Monmouth, Ormond, Buckingham, Albemarle, William 111., George of Denmark, George I. 11., and 111., with William IV., the long list concluding with the sign manual of the Queen, granting new privileges, and that of the Prince Consort as a mem ber and colonel of the corps. The present rules of the corps admit volunteers of the height of 5 feet 6 inches by ballot among- the members. All new volunteers go .at once to the care of the drill ser ge:snot, and, that the convenience of every member may be best consulted, this. officer lives near the parade ground, and recruits can come and go through their drill whenever it is most suitable to themselves. The full and undress uniform — which is precisely similar to that of the Guards , except that the facings are silver braid instead of white worsted—is paid for by the member , who has also to pay a - subscription annually to the funds of the corps of two guineas. The Enfield rifle is pro vided by the Company, and, that all the mem bers may be perfect i n its use, an excellent shooting gallery, upwards of 100 yards in length, is erected near the parade, in which members can come and practise every day, and all day long if they so please, the Company supplying the car tridges. When a volunteer has got over all his drill difficulties he is attached to a company as an effec tive member. A muster is held twice a week in summer, every Monday. and Thursday evening, yom 6 till 8. At these the attendance of members i s . f of course, reauested for general drill, but, unless i n eas ie of sickness, the rules only require an atten dance o ss 24 days in the year—a number which under s pss sial circumstances is allowed to be .rtant re ducedadvantages to 1 2 . Twelve attendances at muster and drill in the col:rse of one year are, however, ex acted.important But one %." which belongs to We members (It this Company is that aLI can learn hico;v to serve artillery if they choose, awl that a certaii; number must. For this purpose there are four be k :utiful brass field guns which belong to the corps, and with these the members have attained such iiroficiency in their use as even to make better 1 ,2-actice at the butt at Woolwich than w o uld . b e exhibited by most of our regula r fi e ld batterieS. 'jibe 10-feet targets which ha ve be en us ed, and some of whic h . are hung in the hall of the building at Finsbury, show unquestionable tokens of great precision b's firing. The whole regiment is now. supposed to. consist Of three divisions,—one for artillery, one of companies for ordinary regimental duty, and one rifle corps. The last, however, existsonly in name, and has been merged into the regimental com panies, which now carry rifle practice to the greatest perfection. Now, however, that the rifle corps movement has commen ced, it is wished to raise a distinct body of riflemen, or .to confine the training. entirely to riflemen and artillery drill. With the peculiar ad vanta g es which this Company enjoys We shoul d think j ust now there would be little difficulty in findin g a : sufficient numberrp of gentlemen in the c it y w ho would join t m ost hi efficienst to raise it to a rea ll y n umerous and s eo . one of training gunners as well as rifiemne , For rules and system, and abo.tveis T r : the country, the besaaged bodies of the kin t ( o force. qnnoUnce that and we ho)p, before long, to hove all for t is now in pro a powerful rifle corps' attached to•t, cess of. formation. . , [AnvErisEmnyr.l—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.— Safe and Certain.---111any persons feel a great responsibility when they recommend reracdies for the cure of afflicted friends, always fearing. that ;the means advised may prove detrimental rather than beneficial.

A meeting of the Western Bank of London war held yesterday, Mr. Roebuck, M.P., presiding, when the agreement for the transfer of the busi ness of the bank to the London and County was approved, and resolutions were passed for winding up. A long and stormy discussion took place, but the facts elicited can be comprised within a narrow compass. It appeared that the auditors had made certain allegations against the manager and had requested his suspension. This the directors acceded to chiefly, as they allege, from compulsion, and the circumstance becoming known was circulated with a variety of exaggerations. The result was a withdrawal of public confidence, and consequently a gradual but steady reduction in the balances and deposits, a falling off of 18 per cent. having occurred between the Ist of March and the 30th of April. It became necessary to take immediate steps to dispose of the business before its entire value was lost, and a ; transfer to the London and County was accord izigly arranged. The directors, after a full and complete investigation, have come to the unanimous opinion that the charges against the manager are groundless. A xording to the accountant employed by the board, the assets are sufficient to pay all creditors, and to return £4O of the £5O per share paid up. An instalment of £ l5 is expected to be divided in August. The ultimate loss is thus stated at £40,000, of which about £20,000 arises in the realisation of stock, &c. The auditors, who have carefully examined the books, estimate the total deficiency at £50,000. The unfortunate termination of the career of the bank was charged on the one side to general mismanagement, and on the other to the alleged intemperate conduct of the auditors. Notice was drawn to the large amount of overdue bills, promissory notes, and overdraughts on current account. Annexed is the balance sheet : WESTERN BANK OF LONDON. BALANCE-SHEET, MAY 17, 1859.

In consequence of the absence from Woolwich of Major-General Bloomfield, Aide-de-Camp in atten dance on her Majesty for the day, the command of the garrison yesterday devolved on Col. Stransham, commandant of that division of Royal Marines and senior officer in succession. Colonel Stransham yesterday reviewed the troops on Woolwich-com mon, in celebration of her Majesty's birthday. The troops, consisting of a portion of the siege and field batteries and the brigade of Royal Horse Artillery, amounting to about 4,000 men and 750 horses, one battalion of Royal Marine Light Infantry, and one company of Royal Engineers, were drawn up in double line, facing the staff position. The ground was kept by about 1,500 of the Royal Artillery and the Riding-house establishment. At 12 o'clock a salvo of 21 guns from the saluting battery an nounced the coriimencement of the proceedings, which were followed by the firing of 12 guns from the batteries on the ground. At the same time the Commandant and Staff took up their 'position under the flagstaff The firing was then taken up by the infantry, who fired three rounds of musketry up and doWn the entire line as a feu de joie, which was performed with extreme regularity . and pre cision. Immediately afterwards (the ram falling incessantly during the review) the whole of the troops uncovered and gave three loud and hearty cheers for the Queen, and after marching past they retired to quarters. The. Queen's birthday was celebrated at Ports mouth yesterday with the usual loyal demonstra tions. The Victory and other ships• in the harbour, with the Hannibal and Doris at Spithead, were dressed out in bunting from truck to deck. At noon Royal salutes were field from the Victory, Hanni bal, and Doris, and also from the saluting battery on the King's Bastion.

The screw steamship Lion, SO, was taken into Keyham basin, Plymouth, on WedneSday. The building of the various ships now in progress atPembroke dockyard is carried on with the greatest ' energy and despatch. Never during the Russian war was there more activity shown than now. Not only are all the shipwrights' employed on job and task work, but they labour from seven o'clock in the , morning until seven at night, with only half an hour at dinner, instead of the customary time. Two Norwegian men-of-war (a - corvette and a schooner) were off . Falmouth on Wednesday at one p.m., and had taken pilots for the anehorage.,,.. By a letter yesterday received at Woolwich from her Majesty's steam .storeship - Supply at Gibraltar it appears that the ship experienced a stress of most severe weather in the Mediterranean. She took out a number of boys and . provisions 'for • the navy, to be landed at Gibraltar and Malta, and was to proceed thence to Asia Minor. The letter states that the ship rolled so much, and shipped so much sea, that they were seldom able to cook a meal. The foremast was bent nearly double for four days, and on the fifth it broke about eight feet from the deck, and fell. Fortunately no one was. injured. The repair of damages which the ship has sustained it is calculated will amount to at least £2,000. The steam. storeships Dee and Rhadamanthus, from the western yards, yesterday arrived at Wooh xvich. Her Majesty's paddlewheel steam frigate Fire brand, commissioned at Woolwich by Commander Joseph Dayman, is being masted and preparing for service. Her armament will consist of four 10 inch 81 cwt. guns, and two 68-pounder 95 cwt. pivot guns. Sixty-five volunteers for the Royal Navy were forwarded from Liverpool to London on Monday s and 35 on Wednesday. The enrolment goes on steadily at the usual rate of about 20 per day.

WOUNDING A PARENT.—The COurt of Assizes of the Charente Airco days ago tried a young man .named.. Gorin, of St. Wive, for cutting and wounding his parents. It was proved that for a long series of • years he had been in the "habit of brutally ill-treating-his mother, who unfor tunately was given to drink, and acting, ill towardii Iris father also when he tried to protect his wife against tha young man's brutality. But they bore with him until 1856, when, his savage conduct having exceeded all bounds, they . complained to the pollee. The;s, were, however, afterwards reluctant to appear against him, and Le Prosecution was instituted. Emboldened by this circum stance, the young- man became worse than before, repeat edly striking his mother in the face, sometimes even with a bottle, an d throwing chairs at her ;, whilst he kicked an ! l . struck his father—on one occasion thrusting a lighted M e g. die into his face. At length on the 4 th September, last, ' ne i g hbours of the. Gorins heard cries of c` Murder help : and on rushing into their house they found that_thfeermaaer a if i th after beating in the most savage mannerbothhis f a'bout r 9 v declared the to fire.
