ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ; with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De bility of the Generative system, or Sexual llyTochrondriasis. Translated from the German of Dr. PIC IiFORD. " Dr. fickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhma and the various forms of disease which resemole it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. "We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the •brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter." — Dublin Medical Press.

STAMPED, sr. broke Militia ; who, at the same time, was presented I with a handsome purse, containing fifty guineas. 1 The bugle was presented to Captain Peel by Mrs. Philipps, the respected and beloved wife of the Lord-Lieutenant and M.P. for Haverfordwcst, who, in doing so, expressed herself to the following effect :—" It is with great pleasure I comply with the request that 1 should, in the name of the ladies of Pembrokeshire and Havcrfordwest, pre sent to you this Bugle, as a token of our admiration of the loyal and patriotic spirit which has induced you to enrol yourselves as Volunteers, and to assure you of the deep interest and pride which we have every reason to feel in this particular corps of our own immediate countrymen and neighbours. Whilst we all hope that England may never re quire the aid so nobly offered by the Volunteers, whose very existence alone must greatly assist in deterring any enemy from invading her shores, we still feel that should such a time ever arrive, we may repose our full confidence in the valour of the gallant bands now man fally preparing themselves to fulfil their pledge of protecting their hearths and homes. We beg you, then, to accept our offering, and with it our heartfelt prayers for the success and pro sperity of theHaverfordwest Volunteer Rifle Corps." Addresses were also given by Capt. 'Peel, Col. Owen, R.P.A., Capt. Tathome R.N., J. H. Philipps, Esq., and others. We cannot speak too highly of the whole officers, particularly of the good feeling elicited from all parties, but more particularly of the credit gained by the excellent state of efficiency which the corps has attained under McWilliams drill, lioyalty,§mps. to be the order of the day in this neighbourhood. THE ROAD CHILD MURDER. The Wiltshire magistrates appear to participate in the opinion of the public that so terrible a mys tery as the murder at Road must never be given up as inscrutable. It concerns us all that a crime like this should be brought to light; but we are bound to say that, though the case was mismanaged at first, there has been no negligence in any quarter since that time. The original inquiry has been fol lowed up by other investigations of unusual cha racter, and the action of Government in the matter, if not so direct as was desired, has been extraordi nary enough to provoke some remonstrance. Un fortunately, all attempts at elucidation have hitherto been fruitless, and, though we have undoubtedly had the advantage of a great body of evidence, it may be questioned whether we are much nearer the truth at this moment than we were three months ago. We are reluctant, however, to quit the case at this stage without recapitulating some of the points apparently established. In a matter so mysterious and alarming the public itself should be taken into confidence. The more heads that can be set thinking the better. Justice is at fault for lack of a clue, but nobody can say when or where the clue may not be picked up. To begin, then, we think we are justified by the evidence before us in discarding the hypothesis which would ascribe the deed to a stranger secreted in the house for the purpose. It does, indeed, appear that the possibility of a man's being so hidden was greater than had been imagined, for there were un occupied rooms in the house in which any person might have lain concealed. Still, after conceding this much, we must needs say that the improba bility of the supposition is greater even than any of the improbabilities attaching to the various theories of the case which have been successively devised. It is hard to conceive that any man should desire to wreak his spite upon another by kidnapping or killing his child, but that he should secrete himself in the house with this object, upon the speculation of being able to enter a nursery where a nurse and another child were sleeping, and from this room, so protected, to carry off a boy four years old without giving alarm, is really an idea too absurd to be en tertained. Moreover, even if we could get over these antecedent improbabilities, there are three facts in the case utterly inconsistent with the hypo thesis in question. If it was a stranger who stole the child from his bed, what could possibly be his motive for troubling himself to replace the bed- clothes so smoothly ? Why did he not envelope the child as quickly as possible in the first garment that came to hand aad decamp ? Again, the win dow of the drawingroom was found open in the morning, but not open enough to allow of the egress of any person. It must, therefore, have been partially closed either by some person who had re-entered the house after the disposal of the body, or by somebody who returned simply for that purpose. The latter supposition admits, cer tainly, of its being the work of a stranger; but why should he do it To presume that he took such unnecessary trouble and incurred such gratuitous risk for the mere chance of throwing suspicion upon somebody in the house is perfectly unreason able. After the deed was done and the body dis posed, of his natural impulse would have been to get clear of the premises without a moment's delay. Lastly, there is the missing nightdress—one of the few pregnant facts in the case, and we need hardly say that such a fact cannot be connected with the hypothesis before us. A stranger decamping from the house in the middle of the night could not have made away with the dress, which was worn all night and found on the wearer's bed in the morning. We conclude therefore that we are warranted by the results of the investigation in falling back upon the conviction originally prevailing—that the crime was committed either by the hands or with the complicity of one or more of the inmates of the house ; but here the mystery seems as hopeless as ever. The inmates of the house on the night of the murder were 12 in number—nine being adults, and of these nine six were able in a manner to exone rate each other. Three slept in one apartment, three in a second, two in a third, and two more in a fourth ; so that, apart from the occupants of the nursery itself, there were but two persons in the house who could not call a certain kind of evidence to their behaviour throughout that fatal night. The cook and the housemaid slept together, the two eldest sisters slept together, and Mr. and Mrs. Kent had a young child sleeping in their bedroom. Mr. William Kent and Miss Constance Kent had each a room to themselves, while the two youngest children—the little boy who was murdered and an infant of two years old —were, as will be readily remembered, in the nursery with the nurse. All the survivors have now been examined with the exception of the two youngest children—the infant who shared the nurse's bed and the little girl five years old, who slept in the apartment with her father and mother, and who, it is said, was excepted from the examination at the instance of the solicitor acting for the family. All testify to their having passed the night without disturbance, except that wakeful, ca Mrs. Kent, who was in weak health and did early in the morning hear the drawingroom shutter moved, though the sound gave her Her testimony, we presume, implies asser tion that everything, so far as she the quiet in her own room and in the r oom s aelrt scoe ve dadjacentw a a t s that moment. It will be remember ed door of which, if sleeping close to the nursery,he that she was opened as a stranger would open t it, made a creak ing kind of noise. We find, therefore, that i the eai s and ecopfre th e house, and, though Mr. Wm. Kenttestimony pee ies o f e c m ov cu er a iP s a tion provided by this r majority of the inma tes Miss Constance Kent are not thus protected, t h e former of these is exempt from suspicion,rwehxi l a e m t i h n e a t l i a o t n t , e r b h u a t s hnaost beenon l y b e en discharged a particular e acquitted by the voluntary evidence of those Who con ducted the subsequent inquiries. The nurse, too, the greatest weight of suspicion in the also been dis.. upon whom with first instance inevitably falls, has something charged by the magistrates, and l i ke a compliment to her general character. As a final result, therefore, we are left with the circle of suspicion as narrow as ever, and with the addi tional embarrassment ensuing on the successive failures of justice. That the evidence at certain points is very suggestive may, no doubt, be true. The magistrates themselves appeared to think so at the conclusion of the recent inquiry ; but it must be remembered that what we remarked on behalf of the nurse may be alleged with more or less force for the other inmates of the house. In such a position, and with such a charge weighing upon them col lectively, they might say and do many things with no ill meaning which under ordinary circumstances might well be suspiciously regarded. All, then, that has been done at present can be briefly stated. It has been pretty clearly established that the murder could not have been committed without at least the complicity of some inmate of the house. It - has been reasonably concluded that more than one person was engaged in the deed, and that the hand of a man is traceable in the proceed ings. The deed has not been brought home to any one, though two persons—one of them twice ov er _ e —have been put upon their defence, and thus the mystery of blood still rests as inexplicable a_ It really seems almost a case for the art clair voyance or the old machinery of the d' at fault, rod. Ordinary agencies are completevyews t?f.vsnin but we trust that in one respect otheugidy of the carried Wiltshire magistrates will be , th out.

I replied to him, as on the former occasion, that that concerned the commander-in chief. It was on the 29th of September, 1860, at ten o'clock a.m., that General Fanti informed me of the convention respecting the surrender of the place, and that the city of Ancona was in the power of Victor Annanuel's troops. At this news hearty cheers for the King and Italy, given by the men of the squadron, resounded in the harbour. At this moment a letter from General Lamoriciere was handed to me by one of his aides-de-camp, in which he asked my permission to come on board with his staff. I answered him that, consistently with my duty, he had only to command me, and I should be at his service on my quarter-deck ; that I placed my barge at his disposal, and an officer to do him honour. He came on board next morning, accom panied by a numerous staff. I received him at the head of the companion -ladder with every mark of deference. He told me, on entering, that it was the valour and skill of the fleet that had determined him on surrendering the place. Bareheaded, I invited him to pass into my cabin, which I placed at his disposal. He showed himself touched at my treatment, and uttered these words, worthy of the exalted sentiments of a French soldier, " The brave are always generous." To give your Excellency an idea of the vigour displayed in the operations of which I am now ad dressing to you the report, I have to say that in less than three hours the Carlo Alberto alone dis charged more than 1,600 projectiles. Our loss in men and material has been relatively very trifling. During the engagement everyone did his duty in a remarkable manner. I reserve to myself, Excel lency, the task of submitting to your notice the list of those who, where all did their duty bravely, had the opportunity of distinguishing themselves more particularly, in order that his Majesty may grant them such rewards as he shall think fit.—The Rear-Admiral in command of the Squadron, Turin, Oct. 8.

Upon the arrival of the Channel Fleet at Milford Haven Mr. Irving piloted them in and out twice. The Great Eastern was also placed in her present secure situation by the same person ; and he has from time to time been engaged in services of great trust and responsibility. We can only say that this man deserves, at his time of life, and after the exe cution of so many public services, to be in a better position than the rank now held by him, Second Master, and we hope that his services will obtain for him substantial promotion.

The following is Admiral Persano's official report of the operations against Ancona by the Italian squadron : TO lIIS EXCELLENCY THE MINISTER OF MARINE. In the instructions which your Excellency fur nished me under date of Sept. 11, 1860, having given me to understand that for the sake of order and the good of Italy the city of Ancona must be gained for the Government of his Majesty King Victor Emmanuel before the end of the month, after having in the night of the 26th attempted unsuc cessfully to cut the chains defending the entrance to the harbour, I took on the 28th the resolution of making myself master, without further loss of time, of the batteries protecting the city to seaward, and which, once in our power, would permit the en trance of his Majesty's troops into the interior of the place. With this object in view, at one in the afternoon of the same day, I ordered the steam fri gate Victor Emmanuel, commanded by Captain Albini, to approach to 600 metres distance from the casemated fort at the head of the mole, and there lying broadside on it, to pour in a raking fire ; whilst the Governolo, Commander Marquis d'Aste, and the Costituzione, Commander Wright, anchored west of the fortress at 500 metres distance, should engage in a combined attack. It was hardly two o'clock p.m. when the Victor Emmanuel and the Governolo took up the stations assigned to them, the Costituzione having placed herself a little farther off. The forts of the place opened fire from all sides on my three ships as they advanced ; more than 80 pieces hurling projectiles of every descrip tion against them, but they answered the fire with admirable skill. A strong breeze from the south causing a heavy strain on the small anchors that held the Victor Emmanuel by stem and stern com pelled her to wear—a manoeuvre th4t could not be executed without exposing her to the enemy's fire. I was thereupon compelled to order the Carlo Alberto, Commander Mantica, to take part in the action, and bring her broadside to bear at 200 metres from the mole. It was half-past 2 p.m., and by 3 o'clock she was at her station, without answering the discharges directed against her. Her commander determined to act with certainty. At 3 o'clock she tested the range by firing an experi mental shot; it told upon the spur of the mole with such effect that the battery defending the upper part was destroyed, and we could see the gunners who had been working the guns retiring to the upper part of the town. At the same instant the Victor Emmanuel steamed in' and took her share in the action, by placing herself still nearer than the Carlo Alberto. The, precision of her fire astonished all who saw it. The Maria Adelaide, the admiral's ship, Commander Riccardi, kept herself in reserve so as to be ready at need. The San Michele, Com mander Provana, weighed anchor, and waited for orders,whilst the Monzambano,Commander Monale, was in position for repeating signals. The Gover nolo and Costituzione kept up their fire against the forts. The Carlo Alberto cannonaded with admirable coolness and precision. The enemy's fire continued. The Victor Emmanuel, driven off by the force of the wind, not having yet let go her anchors, was by this time out of cannon range. The Maria Adelaide signalled tc, the Carlo Alberto and the Governolo : " I am satisfied• with. your per formance." The Victor Emmanuel, desirous of de serving a similar distinction, steamed ahead at full speed, and by a brilliant manoeuvre placed herself within pistol range of the case mated mole battery,to the marked surprise of the defenders of the bastion, who ceased their fire, but this suspension was only momentary ; the firing soon recommenced with greater violence from all the redoubts. Our ships maintained an obstinate reply in every di rection. There was a moment of general anxiety ; presently we saw dense smoke bursting out from the embrasures of the casemated fort. It was one of our shells that had entered by one of those apertures, where it set on fire the straw used for bedding by the gunners who were so obstinately defending their post. The Victor Emmanuel, Carlo Alberto, and Costituzione followed every movement, rivalling one another in their accuracy of aim. The Carlo Alberto distinguished herself by the sustained regularity of her boradsides ; the Victor Emmanuel by the closeness of her position ; the Governolo, by her desire to equal the Carlo Alberto; the Costituzione, by doing her best, consi dering her remote position from the enemy. As a volume of dense smoke covered all at once the mole of the lantern .tower, it led us to suppose that the magazine had caught fire. At this formidable sight everything became hushed, except the Carlo Alberto which sustained her fire with the calm she had shown from the first, as if nothing had hap pened. Then the noise of the explosion, that did not immediately reach us on account of the distance, signalled to us the destruction of the fort. When the smoke had passed away we saw . nothing left but a heap of rubbish; the Faro tower alone re mained standing. The destruction of these works having convinced the enemy that his position was no longer defensi- ble, he hoisted a flag of truce. Thereupon I ordered the firing to cease, and a little boat brought me proposals for an armistice. I told the messenger in reply that as I had no power to treat, he must ad dress himself to General Fanti the commander-in chief; that, as far as I was cdncerned, I should con sent to nothing of complete surrender, granting nevertheless the honours of war to the defenders of the place, who had well deceived this favour by their gallant resistance. The envoy, accompanied by one of my officers, went on board the Monzam bano, and proceeded to find the commander-in chief. At the same instant I ordered the squadron to approach the place nearer in I close order, forming their line at 150 metres from the harbour's mouth, whilst the Maria Adelaide remained at anchor close to the mouth itself, now freed from the chains previously barring entrance, and which clearance was owing to the sinking of the pontoons supporting them by means of our projectiles. I caused to land the company of the Bersaglieri, who had been on board since the landing at Naples of their battalion ; also a party of seamen, the detachments of marines, and the. howitzers. The marines were under the orders of Commander Lampo, and the seamen of Major Carrani, both distinguished officers. having got out on the steps of the mole they rushed on to the esplanade of the Dome, the highest spot in the The tow firing n, lastedw h all they night g e h s t t a ; b i l t i shed nnly t n h e e a s m e s e d l v e s, when the white flag was seen floating at all points.

Rear-Admiral Stopfordstruck his flag yesterday (Friday) on board the screw stamship Royal Albert, 121, Captain H. Lacon, in Plymouth Sound, and is gone on leave of absence.

Pasley, Superintendent of the Devonport Dockyard, returned on Thursday evening from leave of absence, and rehoisted his flag on board the Royal Adelaide in Hamoaze. Captain Jerningham, of the gunnery ship Cam bridge, has also returned from leave of absence. The Foxhound, 4, screw, Commander Mitchell, has steamed out of Portsmouth harbour to Spithead on the completion of her repairs, &c. The Himalaya, screw ship, Capt. John Seccombe, went into Portsmouth harbour yesterday from Spit head to make good defects. The Diadem, 32, screw, Capt. Cockburn, is under going repairs in No. 8 Dock, at Portsmouth. The copper has been stripped off her bows for examina tion of her wooden ends, &c. Gangs of shipwrights and caulkers are engaged upon her decks and upper works. The Tribune, sere w frigate, in the steam basin at Portsmouth, has been taken in hand by the ship wright department. From the appearance of her stern, and a portion of her timbers, her required re pairs proniise to be of a somewhat extensive cha racter. The Algiers, 91, screw, Capt. G. D. O'Callaghan, has had the leading corners of her propeller re moved. Her main and mizen lower rigging (wire) is in position and topmasts on end. The Edgar, 91, screw, Capt. ICaton, is ordered to unship her propeller, for the purpose of removing its leading corners. The .Megvera, screw troopship, Commander S. H. Henderson, at Portsmouth, will proceed thence to the Mediterranean with detachments of troops, supernumeraries, &c. The Immortalite, 51, screw, will be placed in the steam basin at Portsmouth to-day, to make more room in the harbour, in consequence of the presence of part of the Channel Fleet in the port. The Undaunted, old target ship, was yesterday towed down from her position in Porchester Lake, for the purpose of breaking up, in the south dock of the dockyard. By the aid of a large number of men on board with pumps, the frigate was brought to the entrance of the dock, but caught the ground when half way in, and will have to remain in that position until to-day's tide. The Undaunted has lain in a sunken position in the lake since she was set on fire, come considerable time since, by the experimental firing with Martin's molten iron shells, on which occasion she was scuttled to extin guish the fire. The following line-of-battle ships are now at Portsmouth, commissioned and in reserve :—Edgar, 91 guns, 600-horse power ; Algiers, 91, 600-horse power; Trafalgar, 91, 500-horse power; Duke of Wellington, 131, 700-horse power ; Royal Sove reign, 131, 800-horse power; Victoria, 121, 1,000- horse power ; Duncan, 101, 800-horse power ; Prin cess Royal, 91, 400-horse power ; Nelson, 91, 500- horse power ; Frederick-William, 86, 500-horse power, giving a total of 1,156 guns and a nominal steam power of 7,200 horses. The Orpheus, 21, screw corvette,4oo-horse power, fitting at Chatham for the second division of the steam reserve, got up steam yesterday, in order to try her machinery, which was found to work in all respects very satisfactorily. The weather was so severe at Plymouth, on Thursday, and the wind from the south-west so strong that many of the men ashore on leave from the ships of war in the Sound had great difficulty in joining them. A gunboat, by order from the Admiral's office, towed the launches off from De vonport, and at Plymouth a number of the crew belonging to the Royal Albert, unable to face the storm in watermen's boats clubbed together, and hired a trawl sloop to convey them on board. _ The paybooks of the screw steamship Donegal, 101, Capt. H. Broadhead, having arrived at Devon port, the crew will probably be paid on Monday. A court-martial assembled on board her Majesty's ship Victory in Portsmouth harbour yesterday, to try Wm. Peters, a private Royal Marine, serving on board her Majesty's ship Excellent, on a charge of having, on the Bth inst., struck Sergeant Richard Hollis, Royal Marines, he being his superior officer, and in the execution of his duty. The Court con sisted of Rear-Admiral J. E. Erskine, president, and Captains Fanshawe, O'Callaghan, Harris, Cockburn, Wilson, Caldwell, C. 8., Coote, Katon, Hayes, and Seccombe. At the conclusion of the ' evidenoe for the prosecution the prisoner, being called upon for his defence, threw himself upon the merciful consideration of the Court, alleging that he was under the influence of liquor at the time he committed the offence. Capt. R. S. Hewlett, C. 8., commanding the Excellent, gave the prisoner a very high character. The Court then closed for deliberation, and after a lengthy period reopened. The prisoner was found guilty of the charg6 brought against him, and was sentenced to receive 50 lashes on board the Excellent, to lose his good conduct badge, to be placed in the second class, and to be imprisoned for six months, with hard labour, in Winchester Gaol. On a court martial held on board the flagship Impregnable in Hamoaze, Plymouth, on Thursday, Captain H. Broadhead, Donegal, president, Mr. John Kinsman, gunner of the first class, belonging to the St. George, was tried on a charge of drunken ness, which was proved, and he was adjudged to be reduced to the second class, and to be dismissed from the ship. GOOD SERVICES.—There is a man at Pembroke THE ARMY. The magistrates of Pembrokeshire assembled at the qaarter sessions at Haverfordwest on Tuesday last, and it was unanimously revived to accept the Government offer, and build stores and quarters at Pembroke Dock for the permanent staff of the Pem brokeshire Artillery in preference to allowing them to be transferred to Carmarthen as at first pro posed. The amalgamation of the two corps of the above counties into one corps of artillery has, there fore, been left in abeyance until such emergency takes place as will necessitate the calling out of the militia for permanent duty. The Royal Flintshire Rifle Militia assembled at Mold on Tuesday last for 27 days' training. Nearly the whole of the men answered the muster roll, and the regiment is reported to be in excellent condition. THE VOLUNTEER MOVEMENT. The ceremony of presenting to the Highgate Rifles a silver bugle, subscribed for by the ladies of Highgate, by Miss A. Burdett Coutts, has been ap pointed to take place this (Saturday) afternoon, at 3 o'clock, in the ground adjacent to Holly Lodge. The 16th Surrey (Egham) Rifle Corps was in spected on Wednesday last by Major Parratt, Adju tant of the 2d Battalion of the Surrey Rifle Volun teers. After putting the members of the corps through various evolutions in light infantry drill, the Major expressed himself well satisfied at their readiness and efficiency, and stated that he should feel much pleasure in favourably reporting them at head-quarters. He was desired by Captain Sir H. Fletcher to request their attendance a Kingston on the 27th inst., where the various Surrey corps will meet for probably the last time this season. The competition for Sir J. Cathcart's prizes will take place at the end of this month or beginning of November. The several corps formed throughout the county of Essex are steadily prosecuting their studies in the various branches of military training, and the result is that some thousands of efficient Volunteers are now so advanced that, in the event of an emer gency, they could most effectively co-operate in the less complicated brigade movements of the field of action. The North Essex Borderers, whose enrol ment was announced in The Sun, have just chosen the following officers :—The Hon. C. Neville, cap tain commandant ; Capt. H. Byng, RN., lieutenant; Capt. Lane, R.A., ensign ; Mr. A. N. Jones, sur geon ; and the Rev. J. Oldham, chaplain. Some of the members of the Maidenhead Volun teer Rifle Corps having distinguished themselves in the use of the rifle, one having obtained the grand challenge prize at the meeting in Windsor Park, and some others having beaten the Windsor corps in a late contest, it was thought desirable by some of that corps to enter into a contest with the Read ing corps, several of whom carried off prizes at Windsor and on subsequent occasions. The chal lenge was therefore sent to Reading for 10 of their men to shoot for £lO a-side with the Maidenhead. It was accepted, and the match came off at the butts of the Reading Volunteers on Thursday. The weather was exceedingly unfavourable, the rain at times falling heavily with a strong wind, which prevailed through the greater part of the day. The Reading side consisted of Musketry Instructor Tur ner, who won a prize at Wimbledon, and also a handsome Enfield rifle, the gift of Sir F. Goldsmid, M.P. ; Corporal Soper, the winner of the £lO cup given by the Mayor of Reading ; Assistant-Surgeon May ; Private R. W. Salter, winner of the ladies' cup and purse at the Windsor meeting ; Private Stevens, winner of a £5 cup'; Assistant Musketry Instructors Heelers and Barrett, and Privates J. W. Hounslow, J. B. Salter, and Compigne, all of whom, with one exception, had gained prizes be fore. The Maidenhead side were represented by Messrs. Colman, Mills, Plumb, Jackson, Compton, Lewis, Nicholson, Clark, and Pearce. Twenty rounds of ball cartridge were delivered to each man, and the firing commenced some time before the mid dle of the day, but despite the bad weather they kept on, and the contest was so keen as to create the greatest interest both among the spectators and the parties moreimmediately interested; so close did they keep together in the number of points made that it was at one time doubtful which would be the victors. On the side of Reading three men made 18 points each out of 20 rounds, but only one of the Maidenhead made that number. At the close of the shooting the following was the result announced :—Reading, at 300 yds, 31 points; Maidenhead, do, 32; Reading, 400 yds, 50 points; Maidenhead, do, 49 ; Reading. 500 yds, 38 points ; Maidenhead, do, 31; Reading, 600 yds, 23 ; Maid enhead, do, 28. Total, Reading, 142 points, and Maidenhead, 140, the former winning by two points only. Considering the boisterous state of the weather, the men on both sides shot in a manner that evinced careful training and practice. Wycombe Abbey, one of the scats of Lord Carington in Buckinghamshire, was on Thursday last the scene of a demonstration in connection with the volunteer movement. The proceedings consisted of a trial of skill in rifle shooting by the members of all the corps, the prizes competed for being thr ee h an d some s il ver cu p s presented by Lord Carington. At 1 o'clock Lady Carington came on the ground for the purpose of presenting in personi her own gift—a silver bugle—to the W y combe corps, in which it is understood her eldestsoan,cotrnhe- Hon.

Only let there be no oblivion or sur render. Let it be well understood that the murder is to be discovered, and that justice, though it may halt for a time, is to overtake the criminal at last. —Times. TRIAL QF BRITISH CRIMINALS ABROAD. A subject of very grave importance to the mercantile community will shortly come on for trial before the Supreme Criminal Court at the Hague. It will be recollected that in January last a Dutchman named Charles Van Gelder, who was employed in a confi dential capacity by Mr. Stubbs, the principal of a firm in Gresham-street, absconded With money and other property belonging to that gentleman, and it turned out that he had also co mm i t t e d f orger i es to a very cons id era bl e e xtent, and had obtained discount upon bills purporting to bear the so ceptances o f Cit y fi rms, some o f w hi c h , upon i nqu iry, it was discovered were non-existent, and others were forgeries. A reward was offered for his apprehension, and the matter was placed in the hands of the City detective police, who lost no time in endeavouring to trace the 'offender. It was ascertained that he had, in the first instance, made his way to Brussels, where it appeared he also obtained some money by falsely representing that he was still in the service of Mr. Stubbs. He then went en to the Hague, where he was taken into custody through, the instrumen tality of her Majesty's envoy extraordinary, and an appli • cation was made by Huggett, the City detective, who had been in search of him, that he might be given into his cus tody, but Van Gelder having declared himself a Dutch sub ject, the Dutch Government refused to deliver him up, and as no treaty for the extradition of criminals exists w ith the Government of Holland it appeared probable that the prisoner would not be rendered amenable to the law. The charge that was first made against the prisoner was the fraud that he had committed in Brussels, but eventually he was charged with having committed various forgeries •-ill-Englandoind the important question tly.4 arose whe ther the Dutch criminal courts could take cognisance of crimi nal offences committed in a foreign country. The question, it will be seen, is precisely the same as that which was in volved in the trial of Simon Bernard, at the Central Crimi nal Court, for being concerned in the attempt upon the life of the Emperor Napoleon with Orsini ; and through the interference of the British Minister the law officers of the Netherlands Government were at length induced to take an interest in the matter, and to see the very grave importance of this question, and they resolved that the matter should at all events undergo a solemn judicial con sideration by the law officers of the Crown. With this view Mr. Stubbs and all the other witnesses required to support support the case were summoned to appear, and they gave their evidence, and the prisoner, himself, in accordance with the law of Holland, underwent several interrogatories by the judges ; and after a long inquiry, and a strenuous endeavour on the part of the prisoner's advocate to prevent such a course being taken, he has at length been sent to take his trial before the Supreme Court of Justice at the Hague, upon the charge of forging acceptances to certain bills of exchange, the alleged offence having been com mitted in England. The case now therefore stands for trial before thejudges, when the point of law will be discussed whether a subject, an alien, committing forgery or fraud in a foreign country can be convicted in Holland. Should this pdint be decided in the affirmative, the comparative immunity which has been available to persons absconding to that country will be destroyed, as a conviction out of England world not only generally entail far greater punishment than under the laws of this country, but would also probably constitute a precedent which might be adopted by other countries. .RAILW AY INTELLIGENCE.
