THE RE , TIREMENT OF GA_RIBALDL A letter, from Naples, dated Nov. 9, says—Finis. The day before yesterday King Victor Emmanuel made his triumphal entry into Naples in the com pany of Garibaldi. Yesterday Garibaldi presented to him the result d the plebiscite, and resigned the Dictatorship, This morning at dawn Garibaldi embarked, with his immediate Staff, on board the Washington for the island of Caprera. Thus ends one of the last and most remarkable phases of the etr aggle for Italian union a nd in dependence, and the man who has filled the world with his name for the last six months returns to eat the potatoes which he had sown before setting out to conquer the kingdom of the Two Sicilies. Although it was his own will that it should be so, and although he parted on the most friendly terms with the King, no one who has looked on from afar at the events which raised the Italian hero to his exalted posi tion can help being impressed by such a solution. Even if long decided upon, often discussed, and plainly foreseen, the whole grandeur of such an event can only be fully felt when it actually occurs. No king or emperor wielded such un limited and almost superhuman power as Gari baldi had during the last half-year. It was the power of love, gratitude, and devotion, the strongest which man can wield over his fellow-creatures. However the arts of politicians tried to destroy this, it increased every day instead of diminishing, and Garibaldi when he left was more the idol of the people than when he came. Master of half of Italy, he with one stroke of the pen surrendered this mastery to make Victor Emmanuel King of Italy. The story of these latter days which preceded this great and solemn moment is soon told. As you know, after the distribution of medals to those who landed at Marsala, all the troops of Garibaldi received orders to concentrate themselves at Caserta, where the King was to have held a review the next day. The Piedmontese Brigade Aosta, which had landed the same morning at Naples, relieved those who held garrison in the capital, and these latter were taken off by the railway on the same evening to Caserta. The Medici Division was called away from Capua and its neighbourhood. The Avezzana Division, mostly Calabrese, were summoned from the Maddaloni side, while the Turr and Bixio Divisions were already at Caserta; They were all consigned to their barracks, but already early in the day the news came that the Xing would not arrive that day (Monday). As the next day had been fixed for his entry into Naples, and Parini had informed Villamarina of the fact the day before, all idea of a review seemed to be given up. Late in the afternoon, however, another mes sage came by telegraph from Sessa, announcing the King's arrival at Caserta for that night, and the re • view for the next morning. The preparations were made for his reception, but he did not arrive. On Tuesday morning another message came, announc ing the King's arrival for 1 p.m., and all the troops received orders to get under arms, and take up the positions assigned to them. In front of the Palace of Caserta extends a large semicircular lawn, flanked towards the palace by two barracks, and for the rest surrounded by a double row of fine trees. This lawn is intersected by the mainroad from Caserta to Naples, which, starting from the central palace gate, crosses the railway, which is just at the outer edge of the lawn, and then continues for several miles in a straight broad line, bordered by a double row of large trees. It was on both sides of this high road that the army was drawn up in line of battle, the Turr Division, as the first in number, leaning with its right flank towards the palace, and to the left of it the Medici Division. Facing the latter, on the opposite side of the road, was the Bixio Division, and to its left the Avezzana Division, and then the British Volunteers, whose left touched the railway line. On the same side further on, on the green before the palace, were two squadrons of Sicilian cavalry, the Guides of the different divisions, the Hungarian Hussars, and, lastly, the artillery, with its left flank towards the palace. The Cosenz Division, the La Maza Brigade, and different other smaller corps, were as yet at Santa Maria, Capua, and their vicinity, making in all at least 6,000 or 7,000 men, and yet the force collected at Caserta presented a goodly army. It extended from the palace in a double line of battle for more than a mile and a half, and its total force amounted to nearly 15,000 men. Even those who are enemies of such shows, and would have preferred a quiet cigar to waiting in the raw autumnal day for seve ral hours, could not help feeling a sentiment of satisfaction. It was not a regular army, if you like, and a fastidious person would probably have been shocked at the deficiencies in military tour nure, in dress and accoutrements, although the gray Piedmontese eapete gave a certain uniformity to the whole ; but he who could elevate himself above forms which, however useful, are not the essential part in a soldier of 1860, could discern in this army of volunteers elements such as few other armies got together by conscription can boast of. There was great shortcoming in form, but a great deal of life and spirit, which in the end carry the day. It would have been a certain satisfaction to produce this goodly array, if only to convince scoffers that there was a South Italian army. However, there was no occasion for it. The sight of the Piedmon tese regiment of Savoy cavalry, which came from Santa Maria, seemed to indicate the King's ap proach ; but an hour and a half afterwards the news came that the King was not coming, but that Gari baldi would review them. There was no necessity for announcing his ap proach, for he was heralded by a volley of cheers, which communicated itself quickly to the end of the line. The soldiers stuck their caps on their bayonets, and for about a quarter of an hour, as Garibaldi rode down the lines and back, this thunder of human throats never ceased. More than one thought of the farewell of Fontainebleau, but no one doubted that there was in that man the promise of a more glorious return, at which few of the South Italian army will fail. After the review the troops marched past, which was a rather lengthy affair, and was scarcely ended when a heavy shower of rain came down. It was, as you may imagine, with very moderate pleasure that the order was heard which announced the long promised review for the next morning, and ordered the troops to be in position at 6 a.m. The pouring rain continued, an d wou ld h ave b een a serious drawback to the review next morning. Fo rtnnately, about midnight a telegram arrived, announcing that the King would start from Sessa at 6 a. m. . , and that he expected Garibaldi and Gen. Turr at Capua, from which place he would go direct to Naple s , When Garibaldiarrived was already there, and joking with some brought out bouquets to greet his arrival. very cordial, and soon after the King, with hi s lng was Staff continued his journey by road to Santa Maria if suite went by the rail way L Whichle Garibaldi and hi s At Santa Maria the Bing, two has been pr e p are d. of his chief aides de-camp, Garibaldi, Turr, an d cose " got into the Roy al waggon, and arrived a b out 9 a.m. at the railway station at Naples. As for the reception in the capital, I refer you the letter of your own correspondent, adding only to th e general impression that it was a failure, and that parallels were drawn between Garib a l di ' : entrance, when several thousand Neapolitan sol diers still held all the fortresses in the town, an d that of the day before yesterday. But it must be recollected that on Wednesday the rain was pouring down the whole day almost without intermission, and that the King made his entry an hour before it had been announced, two circumstances which suffice to explain any shortcomings, excepting these of the municipality. 100,000 piastres had been voted for the festivals, and for the last three weeks you saw every day new scaffoldings arise, the skeletons of transparencies and triumphal arches, columns, and statues. In spite of this lengthy preparation, none of these official intentions were half ready. There were bare scaffoldings where the triumphal arches were to have been, transparencies left lying in the mud, half-finished statues—in one word, a state of unreadiness which characterises the acts of the municipality. Uutbaldt had the opportunity of talking to the King in the railway carriage, and obtained the assurance that everything should be done for his army. As soon as the reception was over, he went to the Hotel d'Angleterre, on the Chiaja, :.Ting at the same time orders to embark his things on board the Washington. He hoped to be able t o give up the Dictatorship the same day, and embark on Thursday morning. But in the even;r g a message came from the King that the formality should take place next morning at 11 a.m. Both that and the next day the Hotel d'Angleterre swarmed with people who wished to see Garibaldi; in vain were orders issued to the porter to deny Garibaldi's pre sence and not let any one go upstairs. The rooms were always full and remained so till late at night. Next morning, just before going to the palace, a little scene occurred in Garibaldi's rooms which I should not mention were it not that there will pro bably be attempts made to misrepresent it. The Ministers, together with the two Pro-Dictators, Pallavicini and Mordini, went to the Hotel d'Angle terre to fetch Garibaldi to the palace. Pallavicini was wearing the Grand Cross of the Order of the Annunziata, and Mordini was not. Garibaldi thought that an invidious distinction had been made between the Pro-Dictators, which was meant at the same time as an insult to him. He allowed himself to be carried away by his feelings, and Pallavicini left. A moment after a letter arrived which ought to have reached before ; in it Pallavicini explained his awkward position. Mordini had refused the decoration, and he could not do so without offending the King. Garibaldi wrote immediately to Palla vicini, frankly confessing his error, and the thing was arranged. After the ceremony of the surrender of the Dic tatorship, Garibaldi withdrew with the King, and the King made another attempt to keep him. He proposed that he should have full powers to reor ganise his army in South Italy. Garibaldi thought he could not use these full powers while the civil authorities would be there to control him at every step; besides which he was anxious to keep his freedom of action, which alone made it possible for him to do what was done. Giuseppe Garibaldi could do many things which a Marshal Garibaldi could not do. Still the negotitations went on until yesterday evening. This morning Garibaldi embarked. Al though it was before daybreak, and everything had been done to avoid demonstrations, numbers of people were there to see him depart. He was more moved than I, perhaps, ever saw him, when he took leave of his friends. By a curious coincidence, just at the moment when the Washington steamed out the forts began firing their morning salutes in honour of Victor Emmanuel's presence at Naples. Nov. 10. Up to this moment the position of Garibaldi's army is only fixed in a general way. It is to form an integral part of the national army, and to be reorganised on the footing of the Upper Italian Army. A mixed commission is to examine the title of every one to his rank and make the necessary eliminations. It would be, however, desirable that something certain should be known soon, as the uncertainty keeps the army in a state of agitation. The wish is to keep every one if possible, but I am afraid practically this will be rather difficult, for there is a strong tendency both in men and officers towards home. 7HE NAVY. The following is from a letter, dated Valletta, Nov. 9.—" Her Majesty's steam troopship Meg re ra, Commander Henderson, arrived at Malta on the 7th inst. at midnight. She left Portsmouth on the 25th of October, having on board :76 men ; three women, and four children of the 100th Regiment ; four officers and 40 men of the 25th Regiment ; one man of the Bth Regiment, and one woman of the 31st Regiment for Gibraltar ; and one officer, 42 men, and two women of the Royal Artillery, Col. and Mrs. Ebrington (Rifle Brigade), Mr. and Mrs. Wellesley, and Mr. Mount (Naval Department), for Malta; also, the following supernumeraries for distribution in the squadron :—Lieuts.

The Megmra reached Gibraltar on the evening of the 31st ult., and disembarked the troops above mentioned for that garrison, leaving on the morn ing of the 3d inst. with his Excellency Sir W. J . Codrington, K.C.8., Governor of Gibraltar, who is on leave for the purpose of visiting Rear-Admiral Codrington, C. 8., at Malta. She had fine weather the whole passage out. Her Majesty's sloop Fox hound, Commander Mitchell, arrived at Gibraltar on the Ist inst. from England, and was to leave for Malta after replenishing her coal. The Megmra is under orders to proceed to Corfu on Monday next to bring back invalids. Her Majesty's frigate Mel pomene, Capt. E wart, left last night with a mail for Corfu, and the frigate Amphion, Capt. Cochran, arrived to-day from Naples. The line-of-battle ship Mars, Captain Strange, has just left port for Corfu, and I hear that the St. Jean &Acre will leave to-day or to-morrow on return home. Since the crew have rejoined this unfortunate ship fresh cases of sick ness have been reported amcng the men. The fol lowing are her Majesty's ships of war now in port: The Hibernia receiving ship (flag of Rear-Admiral Codrington), Victor Emmanuel, Caesar, St. Jean d'Acre, and London line-of-battle ships; Amphion, frigate; Megmra, steam troopship; and Boxer, gunboat." A letter from Corfu of the 3d inst. contains the following :—" Admiral Martin is still here, with the line-of-battle ships Marlborough (flag), Orion, Ex mouth, Neptune, and James Watt, and two gunboats. The Assurance gunboat arrived last night from Malta. One of the Liverpool screw steamers ran aground in the harbour off Manduchio on Thursday last, and, notwithstanding the efforts made to move her, she still remains in the same position. Her cargo is now being unshipped." The screw steam gunvessel Trinculo, 4, was put out of No. 4 Dock in the Devonport Dockyard on Wednesday, and the Petrel, 11, was placed in it. The paddlewheel steam sloop Gorgon, 6, Com mander B. T. C. Pim, in Plymouth Sound, got up steam yesterday (Thursday) morning, and left for Portsmouth. In consequence of the change of wind to south west the paddlewheel steam sloop Spiteful, 6, Com mander Wilson, sent into the Channel to relieve the homeward bound merchant ships, returned to Ply mouth Sound on Wednesday. Yesterday (Thursday) she steamed into Hamoaze, and went alongside the coal depot. The naval 'transport Diligence, James Head, master, was towed on Wednesday from Plymouth Sound by the tug Prospero to the offing, when she sailed with provisions for Deptford. In consequence of contrary winds she put back on Wednesday even ing, and sailed again yesterday (Thursday) morning. The steam gunsloop Ariel, 9, Commander Alex ander, steamed on Wednesday from Plymouth Sound into Hamoaze, and on Thursday was placed off Keyham steam-yard for the purpose of being placed in dock.

Infantry, composing the garrison, are to be marched out several miles into the country, on cer tain days in each week during the winter. Advan tage is to be taken of these occasions for instruct ing the troops in judging the distances of the various objects passed, in order to perfect them in that portion of their rifle drill. The officers who accompany the troops on these occasions will be re quired to take flying sketches and make a recon naissance of the country traversed, and the facili ties afforded for repelling the advance of an enemy, and these reports are to be submitted to the Major- Gen. in command of the garrison. as a compliment to them, to march them out with the entire regiment, headed by the band. The Paddington Volunteer Rifle Corps paraded on Wednesday last in full dress, and marched to Pierce's Riding-school, accompanied by their band. On arrival the corps was drilled by Sergeant-Major Clarke, late of the Madras Army, who put them through some excellent movements, passing round in quick time, manual and platoon exercises, wheel- ing in quarter distance columns, and deploying in double time, and advancing, which were excellently performed. The fifth company of the Norwich Volunteers have this week had a competition for a breech loading rifle, given by Sergeant Wilde, a silver cup given by Sergeant Dawbarn, and a rifle knife. The ranges were 400, 500, and 600 yards, and of the 15 competitors Private Adamson scored 9 points, Cor poral Piggott 7 points, and Private Minns 5 points. The prizes were awarded accordingly. Five companies of the Ist battalion of Stafford shire Rifle Volunteers—namely, Longton, Hanley (No. 1), Burslem, Tunstall, and Stoke—assembled for battalion drill in a large field adjoining Stoke Rectory on Tuesday afternoon, under the command of Lieut.-Colonel Buller. The battalion was put by Capt. Buchanan, its adjutant, through a variety of movements which it had never attempted before, and on the whole acquitted itself very creditably. On Tuesday evening the ladies of Hanley pre sented a silver bugle to the 2d company of Volun teers formed in that borough. The presentation was made by Miss Ridgway, the daughter of the Captain, and took place in the large covered Mar ket-hall, which was tastefully decorated with ever greens, and illuminated with various devices in gas. The Rev. G. F. Whidborne, chaplain to the company, presided, and there was a very large con course of persons to witness the ceremony. On Wednesday evening there was a great gather ing in the Town-hall, Newcastle-on-Tyne, on the occasion of the Right Hon. Mrs. T. E. Headlam presenting a silver bugle on behalf of the ladies to the Ist Newcastle Rifle Volunteers. About 700 Volunteers were present, and also a large company of ladies and leading inhabitants. Mrs. Headlam presented the bugle by reading a neat address. Sir John Fife, on behalf of the Volunteers, returned thanks in an eloquent speech, followed by suitable speeches by tbeßight Hon. T. E. Headlam, M.P., the Mayor, Vicar, Mr. S. Beaumont, and other gentlemen, Mr. Headlam intimated his intention of giving a prize for rifle shooting, A movement has been made to form a corps of mounted Rifle Volunteers for the county of Pem broke, the headquarters of which would be at Ha verfordwest. It seems that a number of gentle men, possessed of the necessary means, have ex pressed a desire to enrol themselves as a cavalry force, and the initiatory steps for its formation have already been taken. The county of Pem broke, both north and south of the haven, can boast of a large body of first rate horsemen, well up to the hounds, who, if enrolled, would form an invaluable mounted force. RISE IN THE BANK B.ATE OF DISCOUNT. (From the Times' City Article.) THURSDAY EVENING. At their weekly Court to-day the Bank Directors resolved to make a further advance of one per cent. in their rate of discount, which is now fixed at 6 per cent. The step created no surprise, and was not fol lowed by any movement in the stock market, where prices have been steadily maintained throughout the day. The public see thoroughly that the present drain is totally different from those that take place from extravagance and reckless trading, and that it would be ridiculous to manifest alarm at the withdrawal of amounts which must all be repaid within a definite period. For every ounce of gold withdrawn we have full value in French guaranteed bills of exchange of a character equal to gold, and our position, therefore, is just as strong after the efflux as previous to it. As far as the actual strength of the resources of the Bank are concerned, there has been no necessity for any serious advance in their discount charge, but the temporary withdrawal of a certain amount of currency of course increases the value of the remain der ; but it is their business, as sound bankers, to follow the market. If France were suddenly to come to us for a large quantity of wheat the Mark lane iealers would soon put up their terms; but no one would deem it a calamity for customers thus to visit our marts. On the contrary, they would be welcomed; and, whether the commodity be wheat or gold, the principle is just the same. All that we have to look to is that Ave manage the transaction at a profit. In the present case, unlike any other that could occur, we have an absolute certainty on that point. If France were to come to us for wheat, we must take our chance of replacing it at lower prices, but when gold is the material required, she actually engages at the end of a certain time to re turn the article itself, the commissions, freights,and discounts paid to our merchants and capitalists in the interval being clear gain obtained without risk or anxiety. In a transaction of this kind bills are drawn between Paris and London by the firms employed ; these bills are discounted at our banks, and the notes thus obtained are taken to the Bank of England to be exchanged for gold, which is forthwith transmitted to France. The Bank of France pay all the expenses of the operation, and those expenses on the one side and our profits on the other are proportionably increased by every advance in our rate of discount. At the same time it may be observed, as an illustra tion of the axiom that in acting honestly for our own advantage we can never work disadvantage for others, that it would be very undesirable for the interests of the Bank of France itself if palliatives of this kind could be resorted to without consider able cost. The more the Bank of France have to pay for such experiments the sooner will they he be likely to perceive the inconvenience and danger of allowing matters to reach the point at which they are looked upon as indispensable. It was understood that £360,000 in gold bars would be removed from the Bank today, and the whole were packed ready for delivery, but as soon as the rise in the rate of discount was announced the dealers, it is said, telegraphed to Paris, and they subsequently declined to take any. The ope ration, however, is probably merely postponed till to-morrow. A number of rumours are in circulation regard ing the extent of the present drain upon the Bank of France. According to one of them no less than £3,600,000 has been drawn out since the advance in their rate of discount to 41 per cent. on Monday last. Another rumour is that the Bank of France intend to obtain £2,000,000 more from this side, but, supposing such to be the case, they would not be likely to allow the intention to be pre maturely published. (From the Daily News City Artic:e.) The directors of the Bank of England, at their weekly court torday, made a fresh advance of 1 per cent. in their minimum rate of discount, raising it from 5 per cent., at which it was fixed as recently as Tuesday evening lak, to 6. This step of course created a great sensation, inasmuch as it went in advance of the public anticipation, few persons imagining that a move ment beyond 51 per cent. would be decided upon to-day. The feeling of surprise was subsequently strengthened when it transpired that no bullion has been withdrawn from the Bank to-day . for exportation. Nevertheless, the propriety of the Bank's action is scarcely cri ticised in any quarter. In most circles strong ap probation is expressed, it being recognised that the directors, in resorting to protective measures of so stringent a character, are acting in accordance with the plain dictates of our currency legislation. It is universally felt that a strong corrective policy is interposed to the foreign drain. The result is seen in the remarkable calmness with which the whole movement is regarded by the public, and in the increased firmness of the stock markets to-day. in fact of a rise in the value of money to a point which must diminish the attractions presented to inves tors by most classes of securities. It is believed that the withdrawals of gold from the Bank are only suspended for a brief interval. The private letters from Paris allege that the draughts upon the bullion in the Bank of France since the date of the last retnrn have been very heavy, amounting, according to some rumours, to upwards of £3,000,000 sterling. The transmission to Vienna of the proceeds of the call of £2 on Lom bardo-Venetian Railway shares may account, in part, for the drain. Should it continue, we may expect the Bank of France both to persevere in its purchases of bullion abroad and to raise its rate of discount afresh. This policy would of course in crease the pressure upon our market, and necessi tate further protective measures here. In consequence of the rapid movements by the Bank of England, the discount market to-day was naturally much unsettled. In most quarters only regular customers were accommodated. Very little business was done below the Bank rate, and 6 to 61- per cent. may be considered the prevailing terms for very good bills having no more than 60 days to run. As regards four and six months paper, there was a general indisposition to discount it. In a few instances transactions occurred at 7 to 71,- per cent., bet holders of money generally were unwilling to do more than make temporary advances upon this class of bills. Nevertheless, the principal financial establishments appear to be amply supplied with money, though very careful of employing it. At the Bank of England to- day there was a con tinued pressure for money, that establishment being the cheapest market, notwithstanding the advance in its terms. The forthcoming return of the Bank of England s looked for with great interest. It will be learnt with satisfaction in most guar- ters that the joint-stock banks and discount esta bilshments have come to an agreement to depart from the practice of raising the rates for loans and deposits in exact proportion to the rise in the Bank of England rate of discount. There has been on former occasions too eager a competition for money, and, as a natural result, too eager a competition to employ it. The joint-stock banks have this day decided to allow 4,k per cent, for deposits, in lieu of 5 (i. e., 1 per cent. under the Bank minimum), which would have been offerred according to the practice hitherto prevailing. The only deviations from this decision are that the London and West minster Bank give only 32 per cent. for deposits below £5OO ; and that the Commercial, whilst offering only 42 for new deposits, consider them selves bound to allow 5 per cent. upon the sums previously lodged with them. The Lombard-street discount houses and the National Disoount Company have raised their rates from 4 to 41 per cent, for money "at call," and from 41 to 5 per cent. for money "at notice." Had the old practice been adhered to, the rates now in force would have been respectively, 5 and 51. DINNER TO TILE MARQUIS OF B.READALBAN.E. On Tuesday evening the citizens of Perth enter tained the Marquis of Breadalbane at dinner in grateful acknowledgment of many services rendered, by the noble marquis to that city. The demonstra tion was shared in by all parties and almost all ranks in the community, and the inhabitants, but little depressed with the fog and darkness of one of November's dui:est days, turned out in large num bers to witness the brilliant decorations and illu minations of the public buildings. At four o'clock an address was presented to the marquis from the incorporated trades of Perth, the box in which the address was enclosed being made out of a rafter of the supposed house of " the Fair Maid of Perth." - The dinner took place in the large City-hall, which was splendidly fitted up for the occasion, and about 500 gentlemen 'sat down to dinner, the galleries at half past six being filled by ladies, Lord Provost Imrie occupied the chair, and was supported by the guest of the evening, the Earl of Haddington, the Earl of Kintore, Viscount Strathallan, Lord Aber cromby, the Hon. A. Kinnaird, M.P., Mr. Stir ling, M.P., &c. Apologies were read from the Lord Chancellor, Lord Clyde, Mr. Home Drummond, Lord Panmure, the Lord Advocate, the Earl of Camperdown, Lord Kinnaird, Sir John Ogilvy, M.P., Lord Ardmillan, &c. After the usual loyal toasts, and the Marquis of Breadalbane having replied to the toast of the Volunteers, _ _ _ The LORD PROVOST, in proposing the health o' the noble marquis, referred to the long connexion which had subsisted between the family of Breadal bane and the citizens of Perth, and said there were two or three acts of a public character to which he might particularly allude as reflecting honour upon the Marquis of Breadalbane. (Cheers.) When our Sovereign first came to visit Scotland, in her progress through this country, when the people vied with one another in testifying their loyalty and devotion, there was one who especially did honour to the country, and received the approbation of Scotland. (Cheers.) The noble and princely re ception which was given to our Queen by the Mar. quis of Breadalbane was now recorded in history. (cheers).—and it was one of those things for whi they had met to do him honour. After referring to the very early patronage given by the noble marquis to the railways of the district, the Lord Provost said there was another thing to which he wished to allude—namely, the stand which the noble marquis had taken in regard to the Volunteer movement. (Applause.) The feelings of the noble marquis in regard to this movement were well known, and he had aided the Volunteers in a way in which few had done, for not only had he sub scribed liberally to assist the movement, but he had thrown himself into it. (Loud cheers.) He stood at the head of that body which he had formed in his own district, and in the spirit and letter of the motto of the Breadalbane family he said, " Follow me I" (Cheers.) Few could forget the day when 20,000 Volunteers assembled in Holyrood Park. On that day the men, led by the Marquis of Bread albane, received the approbation of all who had the privilege of witnessing them. (Cheers.) The Marquis of BREADALBANE said that he ac cepted the present demonstration not as arising from any merits of his own, but from friendly rela tions that had so long subsisted between this ancient city and his family. It was particularly agreeable to him to know that this meeting represented all sides and opinions, apart from political considera tions. After adverting to the fact that he had been the first representative of the county of Perth in the Reformed Parliament, he said that, whatever course he had generally adopted in politics, he had ever en deavoured so to steer that course as to act with mode ration, always endeavouring to avoid excitement and agitation, and to act politically on the principles and within the limits of the ;British constitution. After taking credit to himself for having seen the importance of railway communication before several of the class to which he had the the honour to be long, he adverted to the support he had given to the Volunteer movement, referring to a speech which he had made in 1828, in the Highland Club of Scotland, in which he advocated the formation of rifle clubs. Ho then said, as regards the part I have lately taken in the Volunteer movement, I assure you that it gave me the utmost satisfaction to find that the late Government and the present gave their sanction to it, and I did my utmost to rouse the military feeling and spirit in the High land districts in which my interests especially are placed, and I was met on the part of the people of the country by a patriotic spirit worthy of all praise. (Cheers.) It was by this means that I had the honour to lead a corps at the review at Edin burgh, which certainly did no discredit to this country. (Cheers.) I felt proud, I must say, in leading that corps from their native glens and mountain sides to pass in review before the Queen, to show her Majesty what Highlanders could do. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I may now allude to what your chairman has said about the entertainment which I had the honour to give to her Majesty on the occasion of her first visit to Scotland. I need scarcely say that I endeavoured, to the utmost of my power to give her Majesty the worthiest recep tion I could. (Cheers.) We all know that her Majesty has a great predilection for Scotland. I have often heard her express this love to the country herself; and here I may allude to the honour I had of filling an important situation ilea'. her Majesty's person. In her household I held a situation of some difficulty for 10 years; and how ever loved and adored her Majesty is by the people of this country, I may say it is only those who have the privilege of being near her person that can know really her admirable qualities and the faith fulness with which she discharges the duty of her exalted station. (Cheers.) `POLITICAL INGRATITUDE.—The Conservatives find many kind things to say in favour of Lord Palmerston, but not a single flattering word do they ever say in honour of poor Disraeli. We call this base ingratitude, though Dis is quite strong enough to dispense with their flattery. But really from the complimentary way in which the Con servatives talk, any stranger would naturally conclude that Palmerston was their leader, and not Disraeli.—Punch.

An entertainment presenting several features of interest has just been given at Lowes toft by Messrs. Lucas Brothers, the metro politan builders, who, on Wednesday night, . invited all the members of the local Volunteer corps, formed principally from among the persons employed by them, with the other persons on their establishment, to an excellent dinner at the Royal Hotel. The company numbered no less than 260, and the restaurant of the hotel was decorated in military fashion for the occasion. Several visitors of note were present, viz.,Major-Gen. Sir R. Dacres, R.A., Sir S. M. Peto, M.P., Col. Wingfield, Col. Hockley, Capt. Joachim, RN., Rev. F. Cunning. ham (the venerable vicar of the parish of Lowes toft), Capt. Fowler, Capt, Steward, Capt. Leathes, Capt. Morse, Lieut. Lucas, Lieut. Bazalgette, &c. Mr. Charles Lucas, the senior member of the firm of Lucas Brothers, presided. The usual loyal and patriotic toasts were warmly honoured. Major-Gen. Sir R. DACRES, in replying for the army, said he was glad to notice the presence of a gentleman honourably known in connection with the Crimean war. He alluded to Sir M. Peto, to whom the army owed much, for the national feel ing and patriotism he had displayed hi regard to the construction of the railway from the harbour of Balaklava to the camp before Sebastopol. (Cheers.) Passing on to the subject of the volunteers, the gal lant officer said he believed the movement was the greatest England had ever seen—at least within his memory. Considering that many persons who worked hard all day were yet found willing to give up their time at drill, while many gentlemen of large fortune had entered into the thing with equal spirit—considering, also, that it was all done with out pecuniary fee or reward, every Englishman must feel proud of so great a movement. For him self, he wished the volunteers every success, and he longed for the day on which 200,000 might be under arms, for volunteers as a second line of defence, and in conjunction with the other public services, would form a barrier through which no enemy could break. (Loud cheers.) To the toast of " the Militia and Volunteers of England," Captain BEDINGFELD responded for the militia, Capt. FOWLER for the Rifle Volunteers, and Capt. LEATHES for the Artillery Volunteers. Lieut. LUCAS proposed, in highly complimentary terms, the health of Sir S. Morton Peto, glancing at the services which the hon. baronet had rendered to Lowestoft, and to his connection with great piblic works in almost every part of the country. The toast was received with much cordiality, and Sir M. PETO, M.P., in returning thanks, said from the first he had felt the greatest interest in the volunteer movement, because he believed that it was essential for the good of the country ; and no one, contemplating it in its varied aspects, could have a doubt of its perfect success. Turning to the continent, he would ask how Switzerland, sur rounded as she was by despotic nations, could have so far preserved her liberties if she had not been protected by her volunteer riflemen ? What was the reason again that 2,000 men descending from Norther' Italy to the south of that beautiful coun try had been able to rescue their fellow-country men from something worse than an Egyptian bon dage ? Why, the volunteer spirit, working through the whole Italian people, had conquered for them their liberties and triumphed over every difficulty. (Cheers.) Another important question suggested itself—viz., the effect of the English volunteer movement on the continent of Europe. He was continually moving about Europe, and he was per fectly certain that the England of to-day occupied a very different position from the England of 18 months ago. (Hear.) Formerly it was supposed that we were so commercially 'blind as not to be alive to the protection and power secured to the other nations of Eu rope by enormous standing armies. But he trusted that in England we never should have an enormous standing army, because it was not com patible with perfect constitutional liberty. No one admired more than he did our present standing army, and no one was more, desirous than himself to see it kept on a perfectly effective footing ; but he con sidered that the backbone of England's liberty was her volunteers, and that the fact that 150,000 rifles had been placed in the hands of free Englishmen spoke more forcibly to Europe and the world than anything else that could be mentioned. (Cheers.) The Queen had placed those rifles in the hands of the Volunteers as a trust ; but the people could not have been so trusted if they had had a despotic Sovereign, and if they bad had no constitutional representative Government seeuring the blessings of liberty. If our Volunteers, in fact, had not been impressed with the feeling that as Englishmen they had to protect loving wives and families, and a country of which they were proud, they could never have been intrusted with arms. (Hear.) The hon. baronet having added that he had 700 Volun teers in his employment—the best proof he could give of the desire of his firm to support the move ment—proceeded to refer to the relation of em ployer and employed existing between most of those present and their hosts, and recommended the workmen never to let any one come between them and their masters. He had bad many hard things said of him in London in regard to this question—many things which he did not think he deserved ; but he believed he was the workmen's best friend in saying that if they allowed amy one to destroy the mutual confidence which existed be tween their masters and themselves great injury would result. (Cheers.) " The Health of Messrs. Lucas Brothers," "Pros perity to Lowestoft," and several other teasts fol. lowed, and a very agreeable evening was passed by all present. Messrs. Lucas are about to present each of the Lowestoft Volunteers with a handsome jug, de signed by Mr. J. Thomas. The jug is shaped like a howitzer, and has two figures on each side, repre senting the military and naval services, and the English and Scotch Volunteers. In the centre of these figures is a medallion of her Majesty, with the inscription, " Our army and navy and brave volunteers." The words " Defenders of our Queen and country" are also inscribed below. Captain Ross and the officers of the Ist Com pany of the 29th North Middlesex Rifles, of which Lord Enfield, M.P,, has just accepted the command as Lieut.-Colonel, have offered for competition, open to all the members of the Ist Company, to be shot for on Friday next, the 23d instant, a very handsome silver cup as the first prize, a Lan caster or Whitworth rifle as the second, and a short Enfield as the third prize. It is believed that the officers of the other companies will follow the ex ample, and also give similar prizes to be competed for. The corps is now 700 strong, and is only waiting the sanction of the Lord-Lieutenant to in crease its effective strength to 1,000 rank and file exclusive of the cadet corps, which ',now numbers over 120. It is intended to divide the cadets into two companies—namely, one composed exclusively of the pupils of the North London Collegiate School, and the other comprisin g the'general body of cadets. Both companies are to be officered by youths who, after an examination, prove themselves most effi cient and attentive to their drill. The Gth company (Messrs. Hopkinson's) has just been augmented to 120 men, 40 of whom from the manufactories of Messrs. Boosey and Sons, of Holles-street, have amalgamated with them, the company being under the command of Mr. Charles Boosey, the captain elect. The 6th company are expected to be in uni form by Wednesday next, and, if so, it is intended, ' THE CONDEMNED CONVIC7'. ~~~~ Yesterday afternoon Mr. Hubert Wood, the soli citor, of Coleman-street-buildings, Moorgate-street, City, attended at the gaol of Newgate, by the special request of the wretched man (Mullins), for the purpose of placing before the Secretary of State another memorial, to show to the Government authorities his entire innocence of the charge of murder, for which he stands for execution on Mon day morning next, the 19th instant, in front of the Debtor's Door of Newgate, Old Bailey. Mr. Wood remained with the convict nearly an hour, and the following document was speedily drawn up and forwarded to the Home-office at a late hour in the evening. The subjoined is a•correct copy of the document : " We, the undersigned inhabitants of the Mile end-road, Stepney, &c , wish to call the opinion of the Right Hon. the Home Secretary to the follow ing facts in connexion with the evidence recently given in the case of Regina v. Mullins : "First—That many portions of the evidence given on behalf of the prosecution, viz., the boot, the hammer, the tape, &c., have not the slightest connexion in any way with the death of the late Mrs. Mary Emsley ; and although they may have had no weight on the mind of the Lord Chief Baron, yet on the minds of the jury they must have created a very great prejudice, which . they (in spite of the charge of the Lord Chief Baron) may have been unable to have thrown off. " Secondly—That it can be proved that the clothes worn by Mullins, at the time he was taken into custody, were the • same as those worn by him on the day Mrs. Emsley is alleged to have been murdered.. That it would be impossible to commit such a murder without soiling the clothes to a very great extent, and next to impossi bility to remove such stains or soils—that the clothes have been analysed, but no traces of blood have been found upon them. " Thirdly—That Mrs. Barnes, a highly respect able witness, saw some one at the window of Mrs. Emsley's room at about half-past ten o'clock on the morning of Tuesday, the day following the sup posed murder, and since the inquest before Mr. John Humphreys, the coroner, it has been ascertained that she was in company at that time with a highly respectable witness named Davis, who is an oil and colourman at the corner of Grove-road. The evi dence was still further corroborated by the errand boy, who on the Monday looked through the key hole and saw the back door open, whereas it was found by the police closed, and the shutters were fastened. This evidence was adduced before the magistrate and the coroner, and clearly proved some one must have been in the house on the Tuesday morning. " Fourthly —That Mr. Stephenson, known to many of the petitioners as a highlyoespectable man, swore on oath that he gave information to the police that shortly after the murder he saw Rowland com ing from Mrs. Emsley's house, with paperhangings under his arm on the Tuesday morning, a little after the time spoken to by Mrs. Barnes and Mr. Davis. This witness positively asserts, from writ ten receipts and from the evidence of witnesses, that he was in Grove-road on the Tuesday morning, and that he could not be mistaken in the date, whereas Rowland swears he was not there at all, and it is known by all who were on the coroner's jury that Rowland, first of all, before the coroner's inquiry, endeavoured to implicate a lame man, and subsequently to that stated that he all along thought Mullins was the man who committed the murder. (Here follow the signatures of the several peti tioners.) Upon making inquiry last night at the jail of Newgate, no communication had been received from the Secretary of State. The Rev. Mr. Davis, chaplain to the prison, has visited the convict almost daily, but Mullins has rejected his interference, and wishes to be under the exclusive attention of the Roman Catholic priest, Father Callaghan. The prison authorities have commenced proceed-. ings for the execution, which in the opinion of the eh sheriffs, will take place at the appointed time. THE MURDER 1N THE COUNTY OF DUREAM. GATESHEAD, THURSDAY Circumstances have just come to light which fully establish the facts given in The Sun last week that the poor man John Baty, found lying dead and robbed on Tuesday morning week,had been cruelly murdered by the person who left a public-house with him on the night of the murder. The person who left the public-house with Baty was a Lanca shire pitman, named Thomas Smith, employed in the neighbourhood. It seems that a young man named Edward Armstrong and Smith had been in a row with the police at Blaydon, on Monday, the sth inst., the night of the murder ; and that sub sequently Armstrong saw Smith in Baty's company at Winlaton. They were in Mrs. Parker's, the Crown and Cannon. Armstrong was there with his father-in-law, William Oliver, but they both left at about ten o'clock, before Baty came. Arm strong then went home with his father-in-law, who was very drunk, and remained there all night. The next morning, as soon as the news of Baty's death became known, Smith the " Lankie," went and saw Armstrong, and asked him to have a walk out of the village, and consider what they had best do to evade the police and get out of the affray they were both in at Blaydon the night before. Wallring along thefields to the west of Winlaton, Armstrong remarked to Smith that he had new clothes on, upon which Smith told him what had occurred. Smith said that he knocked Baty down to get his money. That he never intended to kill him, and when he left him he did not expect that he was dead. That as soon as the news of his being dead reached him he had determined to be off, but upon second thoughts he had half decided to re main and confess the matter, as while he had in tended to rob, he never meant to kill the unfortu nate man. The recital of this tale rather alarmed Armstrong, who felt desirous to leave his com panion. He did so on his way to Barlow, Smith having on at the time Baty's clothes; his own being bloody, he had thrown them away. . This is the substance of Armstrong's tale, and there can be but little doubt !but it is correct. Armstrong presented himself at the Gateshead police-court on Tuesday to answer the assault charge, but for some reason or other it was not gone into He last night surrendered himself to the police at. Biaydon, and is now in custody. There must have been more than one person con cerned, and the police are understood to have a clue to two other men in Winlaton against whom there are strong suspicions. Smith is said to have been one of the men that suddenly disappeared from the Hobson's just after Mr. Stirling's murder, and left their wages behind them. Stirling was shot,, and Smith is a great poacher. If the police are active, and their proceedings are conducted with a reasonable degree of intelligence, all the persons implicated in Baty's murder may be secured. The remains of the poor man Baty, were in terred in Blaydon churchyard on Sunday. He was well known and much respected in the neigh bourhood, and several hundreds of people attended his remains to the grave. A universal wish was expressed that a subscription should be started for his wife and family, who are now left helpless. THE MAILS. MAILS DUE.
