STAMPED, SD. sacrificing to political expediency' the loyal in habitants of Ireland. Your obedient servant, AN OLD CAVALRY OFFICER. Dublin, Nov. 22: VOLUNTEER C'ORPS. LONDON RIFLE BRIGADE. A-meeting of the council was held atthe Mansion house yesterday, the Lord Mayor in the chair. The Lord Mayor announced that the Corporation of London had presented the brigade with 100 guineas. Among the contributions were—the Worshipful Company of Mercers, £5O, with liberal contribu tions from the 'Wax Chandlers' Company, the Leathersellers' Company, the Arruourers' and Bra ziers' Company, and others. His lordship stated that the band fund had received numerous addi tional contributions; that the Crystal Palace Com pany had forwarded, through Mr. Alderman Rose, £2l to that fund, of which Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smiths, Messrs. Bradbury, Greatorex, and Co., Mr. G. F. Routledge, and Messrs. Haubury and Lloyds were liberal supporters. His lordship added, " I have just receiveil2o guineas from Messrs. Currie and Co., Cornhill • £lO from W. M. per Capt. M.

Messrs. a l n 'h 4 e l l -1 :o rd Mayor distinctly that the Government would shortly be in a position to hand the brigade a rifle for the use of every volunteer in the regiment, and that the long Enfields would be withdrawn and short ones with sword-bayonet substituted as soon as practicable. Above 700 , gentlemen had applied for enrolment. Mr. Alderman Rose road a letter he had 4' cceived from Mr. S. Plans* of 47, notolph-lane, stating that he had agreed to bear the entire expense of the outfit of 25 volunteers—gentlemen en gaged in his establishment. It was stated that Mr. Routledge (W. and T. Devas Mincheiter, and Routledge) had made generous proposals to their young men to join the brigade. The Lord Mayor stated that he had given directions that the Guildhall should be got' ready for the drill with every despatch, and that it should be suitably lighted. He believed it would be ready in about a week. Capt. Hicks reported that the drill progressed most satisfactorily; hundreds attended each evening at Sion College, London•wall, and it afforded him satisfaction to state that the enrolment increased in nmnbers day by day. - LONDON IRISH CORPS. Steps have been taken for the formation of a rifle nirioesnilernisthitNiroLlouttlicn Volunteer I b ui r i d g e a r d e theto c t o i n t l s e is t o f o . of o n Rifle Corps." As a means to render the organisa tion-thoroughly effective, communications have been addressed to the Irish nobility and gentry resident in the metropolis, without reference to political opinions orereed. The grounds submitted for the formation of the corps are that the Irish ought not to be backward in patriotism or martial feats with their English and Scotch brethren, especially at a period like the present ; and a further suggestion is throWn out that if such a corps be Cstablishedin London it will inaugurate a general movement for Ireland, where, up to the present time, no steps have been taken to arm the population in ease of danger from without The replies already received arc. of the most favourable character, and among them Mr. Dempsey, the hon. secretary, received yesterday the following from the Marquis of Donegal:— "22, Grosvenor-square, Nov. 22. "Sir,—ln reply to your letter of the 21st inst. I beg to acquaint you that I shall have great pleasure in being one of the committee to promote the formation of the London Volunteer Rifle Corps , and will do all I can to assist so laudable an object. —4 am, Sir, your obedient servant, _ . " DONEGAL." The Earl of Liman, and other Irish noblemen, have also replied, and the most 'sanguine expecta tions are held out that the. corps will be en exceed ingly efficient body in a very short,period. CIVIL SERVICE- A circular has been sent from the Audit-office to the various public offices in London with a view to the formation of a "Civil Service Rifle Brigade." The invitation has been highly successful. Several companies are being formed in the large depart ments, while the Audit-office company is receiving a great accession of numbers from the smaller esta blishments. The brigade, Which will be identified entirely with the Civil Service, and be quito dis tinct from any other corps, promi se s t o b e o n e o f the most important in course of formation. Ar rangements have been made for the Audit-office corps to commence their preliminary drill under the superintendence of Sergeant Chace, of the Scots Fusili6i Guards. THE INNS OF COURT. . . Yesterday afternoon the enrolled members, up wards of 200 in number, of the Volunteer Rifle Corps now in course of formation among the mem bers of the Inns of Court, met together in the Lords Justices' Court, Lincoln's-inn, for the purpose of electing their permanent managing committee, and for making the necessary arrangements for com mencing drill forthwith. Mr. Selwyn, M.P., acted as chairman, and a considerable number of the members of the bar of note and standing were again present. The working committ ee , e l ec t e d by the ,enrolled members and sabscribcrs through the in tervention of voting papers, were Sir Hugh Cairns, M.P.; Mr. Selwyn, M.P. ; Mr. Kenyon Parker, - ; Mr. Rodwell, Q.C. Mr. J. W. Chitty, the Hon. Adolphus Liddell, Mr. Leigh Pemberton, and Mr. lonsdale—the four first being subscriber, and the last four enrolled members of the corps. Mr. Bacon,, Q.C., and Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., were ap pointed treasurers, and Mr. J. 11. Patteson and Mr. A. Bailey, honorary secretaries. The selection of a site for practising shooting was, on the motion of Mr. PIIINN, Q.C., seconded by Mr. WHATELET, Q.C., left to the decision of the ma naging committee. On this point some discussion arose, in the course of which it Was suggested by a volunteer that the ground at Sheen-common would be extremely inconvenient in point of distance, especially to members of the corps residing in the northern parts of the metropolis, and that it would be desirable, if possible, to procure a site somewhere between Bayswater and Highgate. Tho CHAIRMAN explained that the ProVisional Committee, after making many inquiries, and re ceiving many suggestions on the subject, were of opinion that the ground at Sheen-common united in itself the most advantages. The consideration of the choice of a uniform for the corps was, on a sug gestion from the chairman, deferred for the present, in order that the members and aubscribers'might devote their attention to so important a question. A member of the Chancery bar, who is ono of the Highgate volunteers, appeared at the meeting in the unifbrm of that corps, which, consisting princloilly of a dark gray tunic, relieved by no other colour calculated, to catch the eye, seemed to possess all the invisibility, so to speak, desirable in the cos tume of a rifleman. GLASGOW. No less than f our new compan i es have been formed. - • First in order and importance stands that formed by the persons employed by Wylie..and Lockhead, cabinet furnishers, upholsterers, &c., Buchanan -street, no less than 100 having enrolled themselves alreacy, the firm giving them accommo dation for drill, &c., and £9O to assist in defraying expenses. A corps was formed in connexion with the shipping' interest, under the auspices of the Messrs. Burns (partners of the Cunard line), who. will afford them every encouragement. At a meeting of persons connected with the leather trade 90 en rolled themselves at the initiatory meeting as an arti san company. A drill sergeant was engaged and £7O subscribed for general expenses. The following gen tlemen connected with the trade became honorary members by paying £5 5s towards the funds of the corps :—Messrs. P. M'lntosh, George Schroeder, Thomas Callande r an d S ons , Robert Ramsay, T. Pilling and Co., D. Elgin, sen., James Anderson. A " North-Western Company" was formed in con necting with the Glasgow First Battalion, and at the conclusion of the meeting GO gentlemen stepped forward and had their names enrolled. The Stock brokers' and Accountants' Company now numbers 75, and commenced drill on Monday. The " Press Company," over 100 strong, commenced drill on Monday, the daily paper men_ at 12 at noon, and others at 8 p.m. LIVERPOOL. About 700 volunteers in the artillery corps which is being organised here were sworn in on Tuesday evening before the Mayor and other' magistrates of the borough. The proceedings were of a most in teresting description, St. George's-hall, where the ceremony took place, being filled with spectators, while crowds of people assembled in front of the building and gave the volunteers quite an ovation. Altogether„ . about Loop .rnen belonging to the various corps in the town and neighbourhood were present, besides a detachment of the Lancashire Artillery Militia, with guns, who attended the volunteers to. the hall as a guard of honour. The Lord-Lieutenant (the Earl of Sefton) sent a letter excusing his absence, and, after the oath of alle giance had been administered, addresses ware de livered by Mr. W. Brown, Colonel Smythe, Capt. Mends, of her Majesty's ship Hastings; Mr. C. Turner, Mr. Walter, the energetic secretary to the artillery corps ; the Rev. Campbell, rector of the parish, and other gentlemen, all of whom expressed their satisfaction at the .progress which the move ment was now making in the town. The volun teers were alsn complimented upon their efficiency by Colonel Smythe and Captain Mends. The spec tacle was a very brilliant one, and went off without the slightest contretemps. It was arranged that the drill should commence on Monday morning, and that the intervals ,of prac tice should be between 8.30 and 10.30 in the morn ings, from 4 to 6 in the afternoons, and from 7 to 9 in the evenings: The drill will be in the halls of Lincoln's-inn and the Temple in bad weather, and in the adjacent gardens when the weather is favour able, provided the consent of the benchers can be obtained. Mr. PIIINN, Q.C., suggested that as many of the enrolled members lived in "the far west," it would be convenient if they could be permitted to drill in the Green-park in the mornings and in Westmin ster-hall in the evenings. The CHAIRMAN said if any 14 members could fix on a particular place and a particular hour most convenient to them for drill, the services of a drill sergeant should be assigned to them. The question of a ice of officers underwent some discussion. ' • Mr. PIIINN, differing in that respect from a sug gestion emanating from the chair, thought so im portant a matter ought not longer to remain unde cided, and he moved that, in the opinion of the meeting, the commissioned officers of the corps should be selected from among gentlemen who had served either in the army or in the Marines. The motion met with 'some opposition, but was eventually carried on a show of hands, and the meeting separated. WESTMINSTER. Yesterday at three o'clock an influential meet ing of magistrates, burgesses, and 'other principal inhabitants of the city of Westminster, convened by the Lord Lieutenant, was held at the Guildhall there, with the view to the formation of a volunteer rifle corps for the city of Westminster. Mr. 'l'. J. Miller, M.P., as deputy-lieutenant, officiated as chairman; and among the gentlemen present were the Dean of Westminster (Dr. Trench), Lord Rane lagh, Sir J. S. Lilly, Mr. Antrobus (banker), Mr. J. L. Elliott, Mr. C. Wood, Mr. A. Rose, and Mr. Twining (banker); Mr. Baron Bramwell was also, present during part of the proceedings. At a pre vious meeting, held in the same place, a resolution was come to for the immediate formation of a vo lunteer corps, and a provisional committee was ap pointed to make thq necessary arrangements, one of which was to invite the co-operation of the inhabi tants of the nine parishes composing the city of Westminster in carrying out the proposed object. The result of that invitation, as stated yesterday, was that seven out of the nine parishes had sent each three delegates to represent them, and those 21 gentlemen were in attendance ; the parish of St. James, another •f the nine, had convened a meeting for the election of representatives, and would make its return in a few days; and St. George's, the re maining parish, had already formed a volunteer corps of its own. It was stated in the course of the proceedings that the Duke of Northumberland had contributed £2OO towards the expenses incidental to the establishment of a corps for the parish of St. Martin's-in-the-fields, of which his grace is a pa rishioner. The CHAIRMAN congratulated the meeting on the spirit and alacrity with which the inhabitants of the whole city of Westminster had responded to the call for the formation of a volunteer corps. There could be no reason to doubt, he added, that in a yory short time a large body of men would come forward and enrol themselves in its ranks. Mr. S. L.ELLIOTT moved a resolution to the effect that the gentlemen appointed by the parishes which had already made a return be constituted a commit tee to complete the arrangements for the formation of a Volunteer Corps for the City of Westminster, with power to add to their number the several gen tlemen whom the parishes which had yet to make a return might appoint to represent them, St. George's parish, he said, had taken the lead of the others, and had formed a corps of its own. It was possible that all the gentlemen who had joined that corps might not be willing to amalgamate with the corps to be raised in other parts of the city of Westminster ; but some of them, with whom he had conversed on the subject, had expressed their readi ness to do so. Mr. A. ROSE suggested that the magistrates, de puty-lieutenants, and burgesses of Westminster should be members of the proposed committee, his object being, he said, to assist in making the pre sent movement a national rather than a parochial one. (Hear, hear.) After a long conversation, the motion of Mr. MANCHESTER. The Manchester Rifles are rapidly increasing, the number last week being about 440, and now nearly 700. A second corps is about fo be formed. Levenshulme, Longsight, Ardwick, Old Trafford, and other out-townships are also raising companies. ENGLAND EIGIITY YEARS SlNCE.—Leisure is gone —gone where the spinning -wheels are gone, and the pack-horses, and the slow waggons, and the pedlars who brought bargains to the door on sunny afternoons. Inge nious philosophers tell you, perhaps, that the great work of the steam-engine is to create leisure for mankind. Do not believe them ; it only creates a vacuum for eager thought to rush in. Even idleness is eager now--eager for amusement, prone to excursion trains, art museums, periodicals, litera ture, and exciting novels ; prone oven to scientific theorising and cursory peeps through microscopes. Old Leisure was quite a different personage; he only read one newspaper innocent of leaders, and was free from the periodicity of sensations which we call post-time. He was a contemplative, rather stout old gentleman, of excellent digestion ; of quiet perceptions, undiseased by hypothesis, happy in his inabi lity to know tho causes of things, preferring the things themselves. Ho lived chiefly in the country, among plea sant seats and homesteads, and was fond of sauntering by the fruit-tree walls, and scenting the apricots when they were warmed by the morning sunshine, or sheltering him self under the orchard boughs at•noon, when the summer pears were falling. lie knew nothing of week-day ser:- vices, and thought none the worse of the sermon if it allowed him to sleep from the text to the blessing; liking the afternoon service best because the prayers were the shortest, and not ashamed to say so, for he had an easy, jolly conscience, broad-backed, like himself, and able to carry a great deal of beer and port wine, not being made squeamish by doubts and qualms and lofty aspirations. Life was not a task to him, but a sinecure; ho fingered the guineas in his pocket, and ate his dinners, and slept the keep of the irresponsible—for has lie not kept up his char tor by going to church on Sunday afternoons ? Fine old Leisure I Do not - be severe upon him, and judge him by our modern standard. He never went to Exeter Hall, or heard a popular preacher, or read tracts for the times, or Sat for licsartus.--Adam Bede.

Vansittart, is very nearly completed in the shipwright department, but it will be some time before she will be out of the . hands of the engineers. Several of the officers have already joined, and, notwithstanding that she has ' only been commissioned a few days, men are enter ing very fast, this fine frigate appearing to be a favourite with the blue-jackets and the captain very popular. There is no doubt that her requisite com plement of 400 men will be obtained in a short time. The following officers have taken up their commissions :—Hon. C. St. George Crofton, lieu tenont ; C. Fox, master ; F. G. Pearce, paymaster; W. B. Dalby, surgeon ; J. Patterson, chief engineer; W. Steil, second class assistant engineer; J. Parry, third class assistant engineer; F.

In order to enable the non-commissioned officers and men of the Royal and Indian Engineers now at head-quarters, Chatham, to acquire a knowledge of military drawing and fortification, an evening class has been formed at Brompton Barracks,which is carried on under the direction of ths officers of the Royal Engineers, and is already attended by a number of the most intelligent of the non-com missioned officers. The system of fortification taught is that known as Vauban's, in the drawings and de tails of which the Royal Engineers under instruc tion have made considerable progress. Yesterday a number of military tailors were sent from Chatham garrison to Woolwich, where they , will be employed in assisting to complete the cloth in.' for next year, Several improvements are to be made in the description of clothing now worn by the troops, among which the greatcoat is to be im proved upon, and a better description of cloth used than that of which the coats arc now made. Each coat is also to be supplied with a larger cape than that now worn, which will make it much warmer than the greatcoat in use. WAR STORES FOR Grimt.—WooLwicrr, Nov. 23. —An immense quantity of stores, consisting of howitzers, shot, shell, rockets, and other ammuni tion, has been prepared at the Royal Arsenal for immediate shipment to China in vessels taken up by the 'War Department. Captain Grant, 11. A., in accordance with instructions to that effect, will im mediate superintend the construction at the Royal Arsenal of an ambulatory cooking apparatus, pon toon kettles, &e., on the principle tested in the pre sence of his Royal Highness the Commander-it- Chief, at Hyde Park, and on a scale sufficient to pro vide the means of cooking, by various processes, for at least 5,000 men. The pontoon kettles are to be so constructed that they may be used, in a case of emergency, for- the rapid formation of a bridge, which, can be easily throWn across a river for the passage of troops. On Monday Major-Gen. Bloomfield, Inspector- General of Artillery, reviewed the City,of Dublin Militia Artillery, at present stationed in the camp at Cole:iester. The corps presented a very credit able appearance. VOLUNTEER CAVALRY. our regiments of cavalry would appear in the field with a score of men or so. Again, what service the irregulars might perform reconnoitring, as from their intelligence the General would be enabled to depend on their reports ! If such formations would be useful—and I think no one can doubt it ; if it is . imperatively necessary to strain every nerve to put ourselves in a proper state of defence—and I think no one can doubt it who has read the article in the Times of the 15th, and has watched the throbbing pulse of the most feverish nation of the Continent, our opposite neigh bour—what is necessary to form these bodies of irregular cav dry ? There are at present many hundred gentlemen amusing themselves hunting ; they could without one shilling of expense to the country, and II ithout much trouble to themselves, be of this incalculable service. From the great heat of the summer we are likely to have many frosty mornings; on such days, instead of kicking their heels doing nothing but growling at the weather, let them form parties of 10 or 12, and, under the word of command of one of their number, if a cavalry drill sergeaut is not at hand, learn to move together and practise a few evolutions ; it will merely be good exercise, and keep . both man and beast in condition. The only evolutions necessary are simple enough —to walk, trot, canter, and gallop in double and single rank—to wheel, to advance, which they know well enough, to pull up sharp, go about by threes, and retire on the instant, which will be more diffi cult to teach them. Then some singlestick prac tice, and using the sword, especially on horseback, not that it often comes to hand•to-handl combat, bul he knowledge gives confidence, and confidence w:. enable a man - to do wonders against any odds, ol which Lieut. llodson in India gave a brilliant example. Then it accustoms the horse not to swerve and plunge when a sword whisks past his ears, and may save the rider from the annoyance of cutting off his own horse's ears—a not improbable. result if he has never learnt to use his sword on horseback. We come next to the use of their especial arm, the I .:ince, and practice is necessary to enable a man to carry and handle this with effect. The lance, which for regular cavalry charges is, in my opinion, a use less weapon, for this species of irregular work is un rivalled, from the reach it givee ; besides, it can be used to picket a horse to, and at worst, if found an incumbrance, may be thrown away. The only other weapon required is a revolver—a dangerous wea pon to put in the hands of cavalry, enticing them to burn powder to frighten infantry or one another, instead of coming to Close quarters. But, as in this case such a result need not be feared, the pistol may safely be recommended as likely to be occasionally useful. :Our irregulars are now armed, viz., with a lance, a sword, and a revolver, 'for which they re quire the accoutrements of a sword-belt with sabre tash and a cross-belt, with cartridge-box and tele scope, or field-glass (opera-glass) case. Holsters are useful, but the pistol should be carried on the sword belt, as it is when accidentally dismounted that the pistol is most likely to be required. The unifO rm ? wh a t b e tt er cou ld th ey wear th an the common hunting - costume with the scarlet coat? Well, to save appearances and prevent the enemy having any excuse to hangaman who fell into their hands as an unlicensed soldier, let us throw in a helmet or a h un ti ng cap with a ' funny plume. Oh, but how conspicuous a red`coat would be! Has it never struck any of the partisans of invisible coats that in the confusion and smoke of action it is diffi cult to tell friend from foe, and that the introduction of distinctive uniforms was, as with crests in olden time, to guard against such mischance ? Has the in troduction of rifles and distant fighting done away with the necessity of this distinctiveness. Ask any ono who was at Inkerman if he did not hear the men curse the hour when they went into action in greatcoats, instead of as a " thin redline," saying that-it was impossible till they came close upon him to tell a Russian from au Englishman. It was a drizzling, misty day; are wo not as likely to have misty days in England ? Then we were at close quarters, and one would imagine nothing could be more dissimilar than the outlines of our men and of the Russians in their flat broad caps and Noah's ark greatcoats. - When you come to long distance rifle shooting no human being can guess your country. Many a poor fellow of the rifle volunteers will, if ever the occasion comes for active service, and he finds him self potted at from the rear, regret the hour when fancy was allowed unlimited sway in picking out invisible grays. I should say the greater the dis tance at which you are to fight the more marked should be your uniforms, and certainly neither the French nor any other continental nation has made their uniform less marked in consequence of the in troduction of rifles. Why, Sir, with us every vo lunteer corps has a different and more curious uni form ; no human being except the tailor who de vised them knows what they belong to at 20 yards' distance. If you ask, you.are answered, " Oh, I suppose it is ,a rifle volunteer.' in action a bullet may ask the question.. I have digressed ; I have nothing to 'do with volunteer uniforms, but I wished to point out that there, were two sides to the ques tion of conspicuousness ; and for our irregular cavalry, who are to 'be herd, there, and every where in small parties, I should say, let them wear something nobody can mistake them in—the colour Englandims alw - ays fought in. Any one can pro tect himself from the enemy, but to be taken for an enemy by both—and to be mistaken is in all probability to be shot at—is rather awkward. Hoping that this may find a place in your columns, I am, Sir, your obedient servant, 11. E. Junior United Service Club, Nov. 22.

Ralmea and Co EFFECTS OF A STRAY SHOT FROM THE EDIN BUROII.—A few days an accident of a somewhat singular and alarming kind occurred to the sloop Britannia, of Alloa, Todd master, while passing down the Firth. The gunners of her Majesty's ship Edinburgh, at present lying near Queensferry, had been practising target-shooting with heavy ball, and, having some way or other gone Tory wide of their mark, the shot reached the Britannia, a distance of fully two miles, and, entering her on the larboard bow, carried away the windlass and pump stand, went right through the small boat which was on deck, and passing the companion, where the captain was standing, sent a htimmer which ho held in his hand spinninir out of it, and finally made its exit through the bulwarla into the water. The captain's first impression was that his arm was shot away, the severe sho - A which it had sustained having created a feeling of numbness in it which did not pass away for several hours. The look-out on board th e Edinburgh having observed what was done, a boat was immediately manned and sent off to the disabled sloop, which it very soon reached. On pulling up alongside the first inquiry was if any lives were lost, which having been satisfactorily answered, the party boarded the Sloop and proceeded to ascertain the extent of the damage which she had sustained. Thia done, the crew were asked to go aboard the Edinburgh until their vessel was repaired, which having done, carpenters, coopers, smiths, &e., were despatched t o m a k e a ll lig ht . Th e crew of the 3ritannia were handsomely entertained in the Edin burgh, and the repairs having been completed they were again put on board, their own craft, : nothing the worse fur their fright.—Alloa Journal, TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—General Sir Wm. Napier has in several let ters lately published in the Times pointed out the direction which the discipline and organisation of rifle volunteer corps should take—namely, that of teaching them to act in independent small bodies as irregular troops, and he showed at the same time that the project of making them in large bodies with the view of. taking the place .af regu lars was only likely to lead to bad results. Now, would propose that the system he advocated should be extended to the formation of irregular cavalry from our mounted gentry and farmers. I am aware that there is nothing novel in the propoSal to form cavalry volunteer corps, but I believe in almost all instances the proposition has been to create a de scription of half irregular cavalry, half yeomanry, that is, neither one thing nor the other, and which Must entail the collecting together and drilling a more or less large body of men, all or most of whom having other pursUits renders it a difficult if not impossible proposal to carry out. What I propose woulil entail no collection or men in one place, and little or no drilling.: All that is necessary is that every man composing the corps should be able to cross country, and hould, when debarred hunting by the frost, take a little healthy exercise. - There is nothing that an English army is so defi tient in .as a body of thoroughly light irregular cavalry—such, for instance, as the Cossacks, for em ployment in outpost duty, foraging, reconnoitring, cutting off parties of the enemy, carrying despatches, and, most important of all, hanging day and night on the flanks and rear of an enemy and collecting information. There is no country in the world in Which a few intelligent irregular cavalry, perfeet cross-country horsemen, could be of such service as in England. In an open country undiscip lined irregular ' cavalry could always be driven off by a few disciplined repulses. In a close country, such as most parts of England, a regiment of foreign cavalry, aye, and an English one too, would find a ditch and rotten bank as great an obstacle as a British square has been found before now. It would be utterly useless to attempt to employ ordinary cavalry; while to a party of English foxhunters these hedges would afford a perfect screea from the enemy's riflemen, till, seizing the opportunity when they were extended skirmishing with our light in fantry or rifle volunteers, a small party, even 10 or 12 of them, suddenly dashing in would create great confusion and havoc among any number of infantry running in disorder to form rallying square. Once they had made their dash, they should leave them again, for massed they would form a good mark for our riflemen to plump their shot among, which would soon make them re-extend, but very warily, to give the riders another chance. An enemy's column advancing in England, and finding bodies of rifle volunteers annoying it, would naturally throw out a cloud of skirmishers, which, considering their superiority in discipline and prac tice in skirmishing, and the proximity of a large body of supports, would drive the volunteers offend keep them at a respectful distance ; and though, of course, the very fact of obliging him to throw out his skirmishers would occasion delay and loss, it would soon be overcome. If, however, each company of volunteers had, say, 12 such irregular horsemen attached to it, I really cannot conceive how a column usual could practice advance e N ts v i t t i t r o u t i t u l g i e outgreatest cavalry Ta lcavalry the skirmishers w h en th rea t ene d by net Ise attempted by the enemy f o r th e very simple t reason that on such ground their cavalry, could not accompany their horses in the undertaking. And skirmishing with the probability of having cavalry dashing in upon you every minute would be a very ticklish job. I am aware that it can be urged against this that a small party of horsemen would have no chance against riflemen. This objection is more specious than real. In the first place, the ground to be covered under fire is very short, and it is not very easy, under such circumstances—that of the mark going at a hand gallop—to hit it, especially when, from the distance changing every second, a different sighting of ;the rifle is necessary. In the second place, the shooting is not very steady when men find themselves euery moment getting into more dangerous proximity with horsemen, at whose mercy, from their extended order, they know they will be the next instant.

I have thus briefly attempted to sketch the dash ing part of their career. There is another as bril liant, though steady service for them. What would not a General give for a dozen or half-a-dozen such orderlies—well mounted, intelligent men who could carry messages which no common trooper could be iutrusted with—who could, in fact, perform all the duties of an aide-de-camp ? And how many regular troopers would this not free to perform their proper work? Our Generals never have a quarter the number of orderlies a French General has attached to his person, simply, I believe, becauso if they had TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING HERALD. Sir,—l trust you will consider the follosting ob servations deserving of a place in your columns. They have been penned under a solemn conviction that the United Kingdom has never yet been placed in so perilous a position as it stands at this present time. In this opinion I am supported by every thinking man, more especially amongst those of the naval and military professions. Providentially, England and Scotland have been, at the eleventh hour, aroused from the fatal slumber which for yearS past, as a night-mare, has paralysed their dormant energies ; at last, but not until the Gaul was almost thundering along her shores, have they shaken off that lethargy, and the din of armed pre paration .now resounds throughout those portions of the United Kingdom. The cross-bow, in olden times the safeguard of England, to which she mainly..owed her successes at'CreSsy, Agincourt, and in other battles, is now replaced by a far mare formidable weapon—the rifle ; and by the formation of volunteer corps in England and. Scotland there is every reason to hope, that from the patriotic spirit evoked, ere many months will have passed, some hundred thousands of riflemen will be drilled and in arms. Thus de fended, and aided by a powerful navy, they may fearlessly await the attack of the invader. But what is the position of Ireland 1' She re sembles a noble vessel of war cast on a hostile coast, her crew ship wrecked, and thus placed at the mercy of the enemy. While the warlike spirit of England and Scot land has been appealed to and encouraged by the Government, Ireland has been treated as if she was regarded as a hostile member of the United King dom, or as unworthy of standing shoulder to shoulder in the ranks of national defence. Whence has arisen on the part of oar rulers this suicidal policy ? Do they. at this eventful crisis, distrust the loyalty of the Irish people ? If so let them announce it boldly. But they know well they dare not, at least to the extent of some two millions and a half of her inhabitants comprising nineteen twentieths of the upper classes, more than one half of the middle classes, and a large portion of the lower, from whose combined ranks in less than andsix m a o r n m t e h d s c n o o less u t dbe than enrolled,2oo 00 composed volunt o e volunteers, r m . s , drilled en who are actuated with feelings of devoted loyalty to the Throne—the descendants of those who in former days preserved Ireland to England, and who, if now treated by their rulers with the confidence they merit, would shed the last drop of their blood in defence of the British empire. "Ireland, according to the last census, contained a population of six millions; of that number upwards of two millions are Protestants, the descendants chiefly of English and Scotch settlers. Is that important portion of the population to be left utterly defenceless, and unarmed, because, perchance the ministry of the day may distrust the loyalty of a contemptible section of the Roman Catholic people ? Is this policy just ? Is it humane to leave the loyal inhabitants of this island unarmed and de. fenceless, in order to carry out a policy unwise, treacherous, and cowardly ? Already murmurs deep and widespread arc heard amongst the loyal and well-disposed classes. They demand without further loss of time to be armed and drilled in defence of their homes and altars, and to be enrolled amongst the national rifle volunteers. Will that demand be denied ? I cannot believe it. But if so, I feel confident that before long the unanimous voice of England and of Scotland will announce, to whatever Go vernment may be in power, that the time is past for 3 6 0 .
