31 - 0 v 1' MA le Ti ET D CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. During the last few days there has not been much activity in the Foreign and Colonial Pro duce Markets. Tea has been very dull, owing to the approach of the public sales. Sugars have only been in limited request, because high rates are demanded by holders ; and in the refined market prices have been fully sustained. For coffee there has been a moderate inquiry without any material change in values. Rice has been dealt in to a fair extent, and prices have shows an advancing tendency. In fruits and spices a seasonable business has been done at late rates. Saltpetre has continued in limited demand, and less buoyancy has been apparent in the Tallow S Market, owing to the large arrivals from Russia. s . P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 60s. 6d., and spring s. delivery, 61s. per cwt. There were no bullion operations of importance at the Bank of England yesterday. At the forthcoming meeting of the Inter Colonial s Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, a dividend at 8 the rate of 71 per cent. annum will be proposed. s Notice has been given by the Spanish Financial , 8 1` 0 , Commission that the auction of the Foreign Re- 8 c 4 0 0 ( deemable Debt will take place at Madrid on the stool 29th instant, for which purpose the Government 8 ,7 r have assigned 833,020 reals. A fair amount of business was recorded in the rtgeei Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, and prices stv exhibited no change of importance. The sales were 10,000 bales. 25 In addition to the Water Nymph with £321,800, the following vessels have left Australia for this country, viz., the Salsette with £55,000, the Sussex with £248,644, and the Anglesea with £230,390. The Money Market remains in a steady position owing to the moderate requirements of the com mercial community. Capitalists, however, are asking full terms for the accommodation they afford, as a further rise seems to be anticipated. The advance in the rate of discount by the Bank of France has operated unfavourably upon the Paris Bourse, and the adverse effect nas extended to the Stock Markets here, the funds having slightly declined in consequence. It has not led, however, to any material increase of business, the specula tive dealings, an Roll es operations for transfer, beiug limited. Consols are 931 for money, and 931 I for the account. The New Three per Cents. and the Reduced have receded to 911 a ; Long Annuities to 168 1. India Stock is firm at 222 224 ; ditto New Loan is steady at 1031 ; ditto 51 per Cent. Rupee Paper has improved to 1011 ; and Exchequer Bills to 3s. dis.-and par. Business in the Foreign Stock Market is moderately active, but prices tend downwards. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 71 to 711 ; ditto New, 5 71 to 57/ ; Mexican have receded to 21/ ; Peruvian to 941 ; Portuguese to 45 ; Venezuelan 3 per Cents. to 221 ; and ditto 11 per Cents. to 111; Buenos Ayres Deferred remains at 301 ; and Russian 3 per Cents. at 62 i ; but Sardinian are firmer 'at 86187. Ocean Marine Insurance shares are 1; 2 prem. ; Thames and Mersey, / Z prem.; and the Universal, 1 prem. The committee of Mexican Bondholders have received a letter from Mr. Whitehead, dated Mexico the 15th ult., and another from Messrs. Vuga Bros., of Vera Cruz, dated 20th ult. The latter reports that although it had been the intention of the Vera Cruz authorities to resume the payment of the as signments to the British Bondholders and Conven tion Creditors on all cargoes arriving after the 1 3th. of September last, yet their necessities had compelled them to prolong the suspension till the 31st proximo, of which they had officially in for med the British Consul at the port. The Vera Cruz letter of the 20th ult. does not, however, allude to it. l'he dealings in the Railway Share Market have been limited, and prices have in some instances shown less firmness. Caledonian, Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln have declined 1; Lancashire and. Yorkshire, North Western, South Western, North Eastern (Berwick), and West Midland, 10s.; anti South Eastern, 15s. The Foreign lines continue very quiet. South Austrian and Lombardo Nenetian being firm at 12} 4. In the Colonial Market prices were a shade firmer. East Indian rose to 101 i ; Great Western of Canada to 11 a ; and Grand Trunkof Canada, 211. s Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have remained firm at previous quotations.

THE APPROACHING BALL IN GUILDHALL.—The necessary arrangements are being made for the grand ball to be held on Thursday next in Guildhall in the interest of the London Rifle Brigade. A committee, consisting par tly of members of the Court of Common Council and of the superior officers of the brigade, has been engaged for some weeks in directing and superintending the preparations. The elaborate fittings and works of art with which the hall Was decorated for the great civic entertainment of Friday last will remain intact to embellish the forthcoming fete - the issue o f tickets has been considerable, and a brilliant company e xpected. Taking warning from the excessive inconvenience felt by every one present at the kindred ceremony at Covent -garden, the committee has determined that th e number shall be strictly limited. so as to prevent undue pressure and to ensure comfort to all who may be prese n t. It is anticipated that about 2,500 people will be 11 1 attendance on the occasion, and the hall is spacious enough to afford dancing accommodation for that number. The c i t i zens genera lly, and all the leading members of 'the ° °rPeration in particular , are j ustly proud of their Rifle Brigadel, and it may probably be long before there will again such ' an assembly of the civic youth and beauty.

ROI3IIERY BY A SERVANT GlRL.—Emma Scatlea, 15, servant to Mr. George Smith, beershop-keeper, 4f,, Upper Marylebone-street, was charged before Mr. Eeadon with stealing a silver watch and chain, and knife, the property of her master. From the evidence of the prosecutor, it appeared that about II the previous night his wife informed him that the watch, which he had wound up at 8 o'clock, and seen safe in the dressing room table drawer, was gone. Knowing that no one had been upstairs, and that it could not have been taken out by a regular thief, he sent for a constable, who searched the house, and at length found the watch and chain and knife wrapped in paper, stuffed in the copper hole. The prisoner said she was guilty, and was sentenced to Llaree months' hard labour. ELECTIONEERING EXTRAORDINARY At the Pontefract Town llall, on Saturday, a charge of assault was investigated, the complainant being Mr. Bars tow, a builder, and one of the Liberal members of the Pon- tetract Town. Council, and the defendant, Mr. James Clough, a solicitor, and the agent of the Conservative party Mr. Middleton, barrister, who appeared for the prosecu tion, said that, on the Ist of November the municipal elec tion for that borough took place, and it would appear that Mr. Barstow worked hard during the day to secure the re turn of Mr. Clayton, of the New Elephant Hotel, another Liberal. In the evening Mr. Barstow went to the New Elephant, when Mr. James Clough, the defendant, entered the bar, and asked to see Mr. Barstow. He was shown into the place where Mr. Barstow was sitting, and ha im mediately accosted that gentleman in a friendly tone. Mr. Clough said to Mr. Barstow he should like to be friendly with him, now that tho election was over. Mr. Barstow cordially responded to these overtures, and said he should be glad to shake hands with Clough. Mr. Clough re- plied by stating that what he had got to communicate to Mr. Barstow must be privately stated, and he then asked Mr. Barstow to accompany him to the door. Mr. Barstow at once consented, but he had no sooner got into the pa.s. sage than he was knocked down by two men, named Heck • ingbottom and Sudbery, and very badly treated, his head and the upper part of his body being kicked, and one eye nearly kicked out. It would be shown that before Mr. Clough went into the Elephant he was seen in conversation with .9udbety, and that Heekingbottom had also been seen lingering near the Elephant llotel during the evening. Sudbery and Heckingbottom were, it appears, two Tory runners, who had been heard to threaten Barstow, and for this assault upon him they were last week committed to take their trial at the next sessions. The only probable motive for the outrage was one of a purely political charac ter. The Pontefract Corporation is composed of an equal number of Liberal and Tory members, and those gentle men were just about (on Nov. 2, •r the day following the assault) to be called together *to elect a mayor for the year ensuing. If a member of either party, consequently, could be disabled from attending, the party in opposition would be sure to carry the selectioi of chief magistrate ; and it was hinted that the defendant wished, by preventing Barstow's attendance, to secure the appointment of a man of their own party. They were, however, doomed to be disap pointed in this calculation. At the preliminary meeting for selecting the new mayor, held on Saturday week, consi derable sympathy with Councillor Barstow was expressed by the whole corporation, and a Liberal was subsequently chosen as mayor by the casting vote of the retiring mayor. Mr. Middleton proceeded to argue that Mr. Clough was a principal in the misdemeanour, and that the magistrates ought to mark their sense of the outrage by sending the case before another tribunal. Witnesses having been called in support of the case, the defendant, Mr. James Clough, made the following statement : "On Thursday, the Ist of November, I took part in the council election. It was a day of great excitement to me and many other people, and I remained out very late. In the course of the evening (having been out to a dinner party, and subsequently with some friends, and taken wine pretty freely, I was not in the Red Lion that day after four o'clock, and I did not see Mr. Dunhill, the landlord, after that hour), I remember going to the New Elephant Hotel, past 12 o'clock at night, and what Mr. Barstow and Mr. Clayton have said in their evidence about me is pretty near the truth. As I crossed the Market-place to go into Clay ton's I remember William Sudbery following me half way across the street, and saying to me, I want Barstow, he is in the Elephant ; if you are going in, get him to the door ; I want him.' He did not tell me what for, and I did not know what he wanted him for. I don't remember to have seen Sudbery before that time, and I have no recollection of seeing Heckingbottom before on that day, nor did I see him at the time Sudbery spoke to me. When Barstow and I came to the house-door of the Elephant we were in friendly conversation, which as far as I was concerned, was sincere. We did not go into the yard, but stood upon the threshold. Heckingbottom presentei himself before us, and said ' D—n your eyes, I'll fight both you d—ls,' and he struck a blow which passed between our shoulders. At that instant a second party appeared, rushing out of dark ness, pushed at Heckingbottom, and said, Stand off, I want that b— myself.' Squaring his fist with great rapidity, this second man knocked Barstow down. Barstow fell with his head down, and the man immediately threw himself upon him. At the instant that Barstow was knocked down, Heckingbottom knocked me down with his elbow. I got up and said, What's all this about ?' and the same man Heck ingbottom, who was between me and the door, turned upon me again, and said, D—n your eyes, be off, or else I'll knock your eyes out.' I did not feel able to cope with the men, and therefore made my way to Gott's, but acquainted Barstow's friends. Next morning I saw Sudbery, and I said, lam informed that it was you and Reeking bottom who abused Barstow last night.' He replied, ' I gave the it all right, but they have got the wrong Hocking bottom.' I don't know who the parties were." After this statement, a consultation took place in the Court. Mr. Clough had previously tried to arrange the matter with Mr. Barstow's legal adviser; but the latter gentleman had refused to compromise the assault. Ulti mately, with the consent of the Bench, the case terminated by Mr. Clough premising to pay a fine of £25, and to give evidence against Heckingbottom and Sudbery on their trial. Out of this sum of £25 the costs of the cause will be paid, and the residue will be devoted to the purposes of a local charity. Australia, Ceylon, anciMauritius (vfa South ampton) .. .. .. , .

Much anxiety and distress were felt in Liverpool a few days ago in consequence of a report to the effect that the ship Pride of Canada had foundered in the River St. Law rence. The families of those on board and the owners ware ignorant as to what source the report originated, but to-day (Monday) a telegram via Boston reached Liverpool from the agents for the vessel in Montreal, giving the rumour a flat denial. The vessel is quite safe. TILE EXPLOSION ON BOARD TILE TONNING.— ANOTHER DEATH.—GREAT YARMOUTH, SATURDAY.— Anoihr death (making the thirteenth) has resulted from the dreadful explosion on board the Tonning, Aintz Yunker, the Dutch cattleman, having died at nine o'clock last night. From the first there was little or no hope of this poor man's recovery, although a slight change for the better was reported to have taken place on Thursday. John Hall, who was one of the men who was blown a distance of sixty yards by the terrific violence of the explosion, has so far re covered that he left here for home yesterday. Francis Reay, the chief engineer; Peter Peters, another of the Dutch cattle attendants; and Edward Peak and Timothy Read, alias Bilton, two of the crew, who are still remaining at the hos • pital, are doing well. The engineer Reay is the most se riously injured of these four men, and his mental distress in consequence of the loss of his son, ono of the eight per sons missing, has retarded his progress towards recovery. It seems now to be thought that the explosion was caused by a deficiency of water in the boilers, but it is premature to speculate upon a subject upon which the inspecting officers of the Board of Trade, Captain Robertson, R.N., and Mr. Galloway Maine, engineer, will no doubt afford some vractieal information on the resUtllption of the adjourned Wvefit on Nonday (this say), 94 96 1101 103 2514 0 214 6} 99 101 111 113 106 108 109 111 108 110 123 125 SO 82 11l 113 90 92 na 78a 103 105 120 122 116 118 11l 113 1e 106 85 87 98 100 100 102 90 92 92 94 101 103 9} 10 17S 18S lei lot 76 78 20 21 10 10S 15 15} 1137 139' 116 118 118 118 137 140 116 118 103 105 152 155 130 134 ,08 70 90 92 116 118 150 155 121 13 125 1',.;0 70 72 ;11, 118 138 1101 103 94 96 10 112 LOS 110 1 11 93 95 A 102 P iP P IP 23 24 100 100 100 all all 122 124 130 133 10 11 231 24} 101 102 101 102 CO 92 99 101 85 gs 27l 281 '2I 33 3L 33 45 48 125 127 123 125 9 113 124 114 144. 141 LINES LEASED AT FIXED RENTALS.

The presentation of prizes to the successful competitors at the great rifle and artillery contest at Hightown, took place last evening, in S t.George's Hall, Liverpool. S. H. Graves, the mayor, came upon the dais about a quarter after ten o'clo2k. He was accom panied by the Right Hon. Lord Stanley, M.P., Lord Elcho, who wore his own neat uniform of grey, with brown leather accoutrements and knickerbockers ; Lieutenant Colonel Wilbraham, adjutant-general of the district ; Colonels Turner, Gladstone, Bousfleld, and Brown ; Majors Bu chanan, Walter, Tinley, Gregg, and Halkett ; Captains Melly Falkner, Hornby, &c. After a few words from the MAYOR and Lieut.- Colonel WILBRAHAM, Lord STANLEY, who was received with hearty cheers, said—l should not have thought it necessary to trouble you but for the fact that I have been called upon by the Mayor to move a resolution ; and as obedience to constituted authorities is equally a civil and military duty, I am prepared to do so and will read the resolution, which is to this effect:— That in the opinion of this meeting it is desirable that a County Association should be formed for the encourage ment of the Volunteer Movement, and the promotion of rifle shooting by annual matches to be held within thf county at a place or places to be hereafter decided upon. There are few persons who are less entitled tie' dia am to speak with authority upon this vo' l ' un t eer movement, for my personal s h are i n i t h as 'teen but small. But I cannot look around this roona._i n d ee d not around this platform—without seeing some gen tlemen who have given to its promotion 'their time, their en ergy , an d t h e i r pecuniary mewto an ex tent that makes one proud of English perseverance and of Engli s h pa t r i ot i sm. ( Cheers.) to exag gerate t h e i mportance of events that are passing immediately before our ye rences of th e d ay l oo k larger tr, us than The occur n they will to our successors, or even to oi'..rselves, some 15 or 20 years hence. But maki,4 all due allowances for that liability to exagg, rate, I believe that when the history of the pres'-generation is written, there are few events in connection with it that will take a more prominent 11 ILI this national arming of the people that h as taken place in the last and present year. It has been, as 'we all know, a popular and spontaneous act. :no Government nor any individual can claim moro than a limited share of credit for promoting No one probably, in the first instance, dreamed of the extent to which it would spread, and the more numerous the points of view in which you consider it, the more clearly you will see the ad vantage and the benefits which it has conferred upon English society. (Cheers.) Financially, although a Volunteer force can never be a substitute for a regular army, yet it is impossible to doubt that the extent to which the arming of the people has been carried has to a great degree done away with the necessity which public opinion would otherwise have imposed upon the Government of the day, of a large augmentation of the regular force. Politically, it is equally impossible to doubt that the Volunteer movement has greatly increased the power and the influence of England in the councils of Europe. It has done that far more than any action on the part of the Government could have done; because it has shown that in this country, whatever it may be elsewhere, the Government and the people are one in their determination to main tain inviolate the safety, the honour, and the influ ence of the nation. (Cheers) Socially, I believe that the Volunteer movement has done more than anything else which has taken place in our time to bring together classes which are usually separated by a difference of habits and difference of ideas ; and if we are to look upon it in a point of view to which some perhaps will attach less im portance-4f we are to look at it as it concerns the individual units of which the Volun teer force is composed —we see many thou sands of young men brought up in the great towns of this country leading a sedentary life, leading a life which is often unhealthy, liv ing many of them without that amount of air and exercise which is indispensable to a sound con dition of body, growing up therefore unhealthy, and, because unhealthy, discontented and dissatis fied with themselves and with things around them —we see, I say, thousands placed under these cir cumstances to whom this movement has furnished a pursuit which combines, for them, with a sense of public usefulness, all the advantages of health and of strength which they could not have acquired but for that peculiar attraction which military exercises appear to possess for those who have once formed a taste for them. And, lastly, I believe that this arm ing of the people is in itself essentially a movement in favour of the continuance of an European peace. It is so not merely in the sense in which that ex pression is often used—because it has a tendency to deter other nations from attacking us—but it is so like wise because it has a tendency to render us less willing to engage in quarrels witb other countries. That may appear at first sight a paradox, but I can explain is a very few words what I mean. I believe that whenever a cry for war spreads through this country—we have known such before and may possibly hear them again —one of the motives which most powerfully influences the public in favour of war is au uncomfortable suspicion that people abroad believe that England is not prepared to enter into a war, and a still more uncomfortable suspicion that in that belief it is possible that the people may right. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) It is in the body corporate, as in the physical frame, weakness and irritability go together. (Laughter.) It is with nations as with individuals. Those who are strong and know themselves to be so, can afford to be good humoured and forbearing, and to pass over petty annoyances and strife, and it is those who are distrustful of their own position, who are distrustful of the opinion formed of them by others ; who, in order to vindicate that doubtful position, are always ready to rush into a quarrel at a moment's notice. (Hear, hear.) If you think thus, as I be lieve you do, of the Volunteer movement, let us consider what it is that we can do to keep up and even to increase its efficiency. I think that there was great truth and sense in the warning ad dressed lately by the Chancellor of the Exchequer to his audience at Chester, when he told them that in taking up this movement in so signal and con spicuous a manner before the eyes, as it were, of all Europe, the people of England had involved them selves in a great responsibility, for that, although the thing might, at first, have been let alone witlt out any reasonable cause for reproaches, yet still, having been once taken up in so signal and public a manner, it could not be let drop without national discredit and even national disgrace. (Hear, hear.) What, then, can we do to keep up the effi ciency of the force ? There are two things, I pre sume, without which no force, and especially no Volunteer force, can be efficient. One is the collec • tive efficiency of the corps that compose it, and the other is the individual skill of the men in tree use of the weapon which they handle. Those who know more of military matters than I pretend to know tell us that in war nothing, or next to no thing, can be done by the isolated efforts of mere marksmen, if they are not able to combine for pur poses of joint attack and mutual defence—(hear, hear)—and, on the other hand, it is quite plain that, however well you may drill and discipline men, however steadily you may get them to stand in a line, however firmly they may resist attac k, still they will be of comparatively little value in the field unless every man can so use his weapon as to bring down the enemy at whom he aims. Of these two requisites, one—l mean discipline—ought tohbelphroo-- vided for by those frequent drillings .l h lieve no well-organised corps will ndeghewcitor b speyctions occa sional reviews on a larger scale, an by experienced and competent offi t ce t r i s m , s y nch as every e to undergo. Volunteer corps ought from time . The other requisite—that of The best means .111nudividual skill, is necessarily more difficult to . of securing it, I believe,. will be found in bringing competition which is into play that principle r many rine i p other f found to be so greatly. branches of human attai.nninal instance has lately oeffe e u n t t i — v e t ht L i i t competition of . which . baothood. As to the desira been given in this neigala as that at Hightown we bility of such matchesbt then the question arises i should all agree ; . . under what condistitouons and on what principles, ' I be conducted ? I shall not ought such matches but there are one or two prin ciplesto be regarded when it is enter into details,eht wh i c h ou f f n association by which rifle sought to form con tests are to be made a permanent part of our in stitutions. In the first place they must be local, b the area should not be too limited. (Hear, hear.) There is d . anger both ways If the area is too large, you will get none to compete for the prizes except a few crack shots—there would be no feeling of general interest or of general emula tion. On the other hand, if an association limits it se lf to a single town or neighbourhood, you will n ot attract sufficient public attention. The prizes which are offered will not be sufficiently valuable ; the distinction of gaining them will not be equally great. In the agricultural districts, therefore, it might be wise for two or three counties to unite in a single association ; but here in Lancashire, with our extensive area, our vast population, and our unlimited command both of capital and of labour, I confess that I should be sorry if we had not a County Rifle Association of our own—(cheers) —and I should be equally sorry l if, from local jealousy or any other cause, tlhehsrionuggiel association which we project were to fa t l hr t ee m all t.iad its place were to be taken by twos r they I laaa2 associations, not occupying a warily rind not ? the .1144 S liyace!! neces tl i e public eye. (Hear, hear.) What I say does not at all exclude the possibili'y of matches being held from time to time in different parts of the county. Personally, I t:iink it better that they should, be so held, and the County Association should be to them what a County Agricultural Association is to local ones of that nature. I think that ou:r county associations ought to be placed under thy.: authority of the Lord Lieutenant, and that there ought to be carefully trained and experienced officers to act as judges, and inspect the proceed;_ngs so as to give them as much as possible a really military character. There is another question upon which I think it is possible that, in the future, great discussion may arise—l mean as t.o how far membership of the Association or athr,ission to compete for the prizes should be limitC a to Volunteers. I don't want to see that lirnita#,,ion made absolute. It will be well but t u a g s a h that ' a f ew pr i zes are open to a ll comers; general rule, I think it desirable to connect t he rifle match of the county with its *Volunteer force, 'and chiefly for this reason, that rifle contests are T s opular and interesting, while drill is not to all nt4.sons very interesting, and is not always consi dr2red agreeable. It may, therefore, be well to hold 'ut tine privilege of competing in these county matches as a sort of reward to those who have gone th.rough the labour and trouble of training them 'selves to act in a regular Volunteer corps. (Applause.) Lastly, I think it will be well to secure that the regulations shall be so framed as to prevent all the prizes falling into a few hands. (Hear, hear.) There are many ways in which that may be done, bid it is essential for us to re member that our object is not to show in Lanca shire merely the half dozen best shots in England, but to produce a high average of good shooting—. (applause)—that we want not only the six but, if it be possible, the 600 best shots in England., (Cheers.) I believe that we may look forward confidently to an association such as I have de scribed being formed at no distant date. . ourselves We have every reason to congratulate upon the manner in which the Hightown contest was conducted. I am told that out of the 21,000 shots fired without accident, taking the average of all the ranges, one in three would have killefl its man if the target had been a human figure ; and that as to the artillery practice at the range of a mile, every single shot would have hit any vessel of an ordinary size that might have been attempting to enter the Mersey for a hos tile purpose. (Cheers.) Let us hops that no local jealousy, and that no rivalry (always the greater the more zealous men are in any object they pursue), may interfere with the progress of a movement upon which, in no common degree, the honour and safety of thiscoun try depends. (Loud cheers.) Lord ELcuo, who was received with much ap plause, said it was with heartfelt satisfaction that he seconded the motion proposed by Lord Stanley —a motion w hich he hoped would have a most. material and beneficial effect upon the volunteer movement in the county of Lancaster. (Applause.) Occupying as he did a certain official position as Chairman of the National Rifle Association, he did not hesitate to accept the invitation to aid in the foundation of a similar association in Lancashire. The objects of the National Rifle Association were well known, but, perhaps all did not know that one of the founders of the association (which he hoped would have a long career of prosperity before it) was Col. Gladstone—(applause); and with reference to t his point he might say that the National Rifle As sociation was about to publish a little pamphlet—. it was only a shilling, and he hoped all present would invest that amount in the purchase of the work, giving a clear and succinct account of the origin of the Volunteer movement. The object of the National Rifle Association was to give perma nence to the Volunteer movement ; and the forma tion of the Association naturally arose from seeing in other countries—Switzerland, for example—the benefit consequent upon every man being trained to the use of the rifle, The National Rifle Association had not got that number of members from Liver pool which it ought to have; and though the people of Liverpool took great interest in their local asso ciation, yet they should recollect that, like the Royal Agricultural Society, they wanted a cul minating society, which would be the means of finding out the crack shot of England—(ap plausej—and which could bestow some honour which no local association could. (Applause.) That was the system which prevailed in Switzer land, where each canton had its local association, and the different cantons met together once in two years to compete for prizes. With reference to prizes, he knew that all the Volunteers would agree with him when he said that they ought not to look too much to their money value. It seemed to him that the Hightown prizes were rather too large ; and he would remind them that they must not only look to the permanence of the Volunteer movement, but to the permanence of the means by which they could make that movement permanent. (Hear.) They should get the Volunteers not to look so much to the prizes as to the position they gained in the contest. In our army the highest honour a soldier could gain was a bit of bronze ; and the National Rifle Association wished their bronze medal to be considered the highest honour open to the competitors. (Applause.) Nothing had given him greater pleasure than to see that the gentlemen who had conducted the Hightown con test abstained from offering medals. The army won their medals at the risk of their lives, and he should not like to feel that he was going about with medals which had been won only in peaceful con tests with the rifle. (Applause.) It was on that account that he would restrict the prizes to money or plate; and there was no better means of hus banding their resources than by offering challenge cups. In the formation of their County Asso , elation, he should wish them to connect it with the National Association, simply because it was desirable to have a culminating point. If anyone said that the Volunteers had any hostile intention, he would refer them to the speech of Lord Stanley ; and if another proof was wanted he would point to the Commander of the Ist Lancashire Artillery —Colonel William Brown. (Applause.) The recent speech of the Chancellor of the Exchequer was also an important feature in the volunteer movement, because at first the Chancellor was not very favourable to the movement, but now he gave it the benefit of his eloquence. He (Lord Mello) was quite sure he gave utterance to the sentiments of every volunteer when he said that in taking up the volunteer cause as they had done, it was with a determination that our country should be strong and secure, and that England's voice should be heard, without fear of the consequences, in the cause of of liberty and civilisation. He had always wished were feel that the hands of our Foreign Secretadryao.e.y untied, and that his despatches were dictatte fear of by a feeling of right and justice withouf asr consequences.
