The firing detachment of Royal Marines Light Infantry, under the command of Lieut. Leeky, Musketry Instructor (pro tem.) to the division, were yesterday engaged at their practice ground in Woolwich-marsh in firing over the long range at distances of 700 and 800 yards. The ammunition employed was Boxer's cartridges No. 3. The prac tice was very fair, and the sighting good. The firing with the five-grooved Sergeant's short rifle was exceedingly good, the efficacy of that weapon having proved as superior to that of the long rifle as the Snider is to the long Enfield. The 11th depot battalion stationed at Gosport, under; the command of Lieut.-Col. Nason, erased over to Portsmouth yesterday, and paraded on Southsea-common for inspection by Lieut.-Gen. Sir G. Buller, K.C.8., Lieut.-Governor of Ports mouth and Commander-in-Chief of the South- West Military District. The inspection proved very creditable both to officers and men. The shipping departmental officers at Woolwich have received instructions front the War Depart ment to embark 100 tons of the new Boxer ammu nition, for the use of the Militia regiments in Scot land, now about to commence their annual course of training and practice for inspection. Her Majesty's steamship Caledonia, armour-clad, late flagship of Admiral Yelverton, whose period of service has expired, is under orders for the, terranean, to relieve the Victoria, three-decker, as flagship of the Commauder-iu-Chief on that station. The Victoria will return home to be paid off. Captain Scovell, of the 9th Regiment, Ensign Guyon, 49th Regiment, Ensign Willoughby, 96th Regiment, two sergeants, two corporals, and six privates, 4th and Bth depot battalions, were to leave the camp at Colchester yesterday for the Hythe School of Musketry. Captain Sheringham, Ist battalion, 16th Regiment, is under orders to pro ceed to Canada with the draught of the Ist batta lion, 16th Foot, in place of Capt. Goodwin, with drawn. Lieut. Church, 96th Foot, is held in readi ness to proceed from the depot to the service com panies of his regiment in Bombay. Ensign Tar leten, Ist battalion, 16th Regiment, has received orders to proceed from the service to the depot companies for duty. Staff-Assist.-Surg,. Jay has been attached to the 6th (Enniskillen) Dragoons. A farewell inspection and review of the 72d Highlanders was held at Edinburgh on Monday. The regiment was paraded in the morning on the Castle esplanade, under the command of Lieut.- Col. Payn, and a careful inspection was made by Major-General Hamilton, C. 8., Commander of the Forces in North Britain. In the afternoon the corps was reviewed in Holyrood-park, and put through the drill for the breech-loading rifle, with which the men are now armed, and in the use of which they showed great proficiency. A few men were taken from the ranks to ase4ertain the rate of firing, and the result showed tha4 each man fired on the average seven shots per min* At the conclu sion Major-Gen. Hamilton complimented the men on their steadiness and on their rapid and well-sus tained firing. The regiment is about to leave Edin burgh for Aldershot, and will be succeeded by the second battalion of the 6th:Foot. The announcement in the Owl, that " the whole of the infantry in the army in the United King dom aro at this moment supplied with the Snider rifle," has nowhere created more surprise than at Chatham, as not a single rifle of the new breech loading Snider pattern has been yet distributed to any of the infantry - troops at that station, and not a Snider rifle has been received at the garrison. The statement, therefore, that " the reports from all dis tricts announce a perfect satisfaction with the arm as a practical weapon" must be illusory. On Wednesday Major-general Freeman Murray, commanding the forces in the Chatham district, commenced his first half-yearly inspection of the Corps of Royal Engineers at head-quarters, Brompton barracks, under the command of Col. J. L. A. Simmons, C. 8., director of the Royal Engi neer establishment. At 11 o'clock a.m. the whole of the available officers and men of the corps, num bering eight companies, together with the mounted A troop of the Royal Engineer . train, under the command of Capt. R. N. Dawson, with their horses; waggons, and pontoon-train complete, to the num ber of about 800 men of all ranks, were formed on the Great Lines in heavy marching order, under the command of Lieut.-Col. Fitzroy H. Somerset. On the arrival of General Murray, accompanied by the officers of his personal and divisional staff, the usual salute was given, immediately after which the com panies were formed in open column, when the kits, arms, and accoutrements of each company were minutely inspected. This completed, the cus tomary movements and exercise were gone through, in which the corps acquitted itself very satisfactorily. The companies were afterwards marched back to their quarters, and General Mug ray proceeded to Brompton barracks, on which the staff and other non-commissioned officers and men were drawn up, for the purpose of being exercised in the new sword-drill, through which course of in struction they have just passed. In the afternoon, at 3 o'clock, the entire corps was drawn up on the Lines, in review order, and on the arrival of Gen. Murray the officers and men were put through an extended course oflight infan try and other manceuvres incidental to the half-yearly inspection, in order to test the efficiency of the officers and men of the Royal Engineers. Notwithstanding the compara tively few occasions that the Royal Engineers, from the varied character of their duties, enjoy for prac tising light infantry and field movements, they acquitted themselves very satisfactorily, the different manceuvres being gone through with steadiness and precision. Yesterday General Murray resumed and brought the inspection to a conclusion, the day being devoted to the examination of the barrack rooms and men's quarters, schools, halls of study, lecture theatres, model rooms, offices, and other de partments at the Royal Engineer establishment, the General visiting, later in the day, the hospital for the Royal Engineers at Fort Pitt.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. TIMES.—The House of Commons has returned to the discussion of the Reform Bill full of good sense and good temper. Last night the Committee re sumed its labours and, after a short and business like debate, it decided, by an overwhelming majority, against the condition of 'ti to years' residence to • which it was proposed to subject householders in habiting houses below £lO in annual value. Mr. Ayrton, as has been announced, moved the amend ment reducing the term of residence from two years to one, instead of Mr. Gladstone, who had aban doned it with his other proposals, and he found 278 supporters against 197 who voted with the Govern ment. This decisive majority must compel the adoption of the change, even if Mr. Disraeli had intended to do more than test the feeling of the Com mittee upon the question by submitting it to a formal vote. lie moved, indeed, that the chairman report progress immediately after the division was taken, on the ground that it was necessary to consult his colleagues uFon it, and Mr. Gladstone admitted the propriety of this proceeding ; hilt we cannot suppose there will be any hesitation in accepting the clearly expressed opinion of Parliament. One of the gravest blots in the Ministerial scheme has been thus easily removed, and the practical ability and 1 honesty of the house of Commons have been once more vim heated. It can no longer be denied that the Committee of the House is thoroughly in ac -1 cord with the people in treating the Government Bill as a substantial measure of Reform to be amended in details, but as a whole worthy of acceptance. The passionate invectives of provin cial oratory and the exaggerated resentment of disappointed opponents, have alike failed to make llouse or country swerve from their purpose to bring Reform to a legislative settlement this year. ' The Easter recess has done much good in stilling the angry feelings engendered by the critical Divi sion which immediately preceded it. We can now afford to forget the false issues raised in the earlier part of the session. Mr. Bass last night defended himself with great effect from the asper sions cast upon those who declined to follow Mr. Gladstone three weeks since ; but he must by this time be well aware that the victory has been so completely with himself and those who went with him that they may without scruple disregard the angry epithets lavished upon them. Outside the world of officials and of agitators every one is now persuaded that the proper plan of dealing with the Government scheme is by alterations of detail like that carried last night. Lord Grosvenor began the practical work of yesterday by withdrawing his proposal of a £5 rating limit, and he took occasion at the same time to repudiate the wonderful charge of collusion with the Government which Mr. Stans feld had brought against him at Halifax, and on which we took occasion to comment at the time as a singular manifestation of suspicion and credulity. The discussion on the term of residence to be re quired of the borough voters to be enfranchised by the bill thus came on at once, and it may be ad mitted that the Government showed some discretion in the weakness of the defence they made for their two years' limit. Sir J. PAKINGTON—ready as is , his wont to encounter any difficulty—argued the I case of the additional 12 months ; but his manner was that of an advocate speaking for another rather than that of a man upholding his own sentiments. Indeed, he acknowledged that the question was one open to discussion, and avowed, for his own part, regret that it was impossible to concede at once the modification demanded. This language was in per fect accord with the tone adopted by Lord Derby in addressing the deputation which met him at Downing-street in the beginning of the week, and may justify a regret that the Ministry had ever been persuaded to recommend a residence of two years as a qualification for the voters to be admitted by their bill. It is plain that a distinction in the term of residence of different classes of voters ought not to be adopted without the gravest reasons for its justification. A variation of this kind is in the highest degree invidious, and in practice would produce constant resentment. Under any circum stances it would be obnoxious to criticism, but when it is proposed to make it dependent upon whether a voter lives in a house above or below the value of £lO it is manifestly untenable. The suggestion i s inconsistent with the main principle of the Minis terial Bill, since it sets up a " bard and fast" line in its worst form, and no ane ventures to say that the poorer householder requires an additional twelvemonths' purgation before he can be admitted into the ranks of voters who inhabit houses of a pound or two higher value. Sir Roundell Palmer made an unanswerable demand when he asked for a justification of the attempt to draw au invidious line of distinction between old and new voters. We believe the effect of this ill-considered proposal would have been found comparatively trifling had it been adopted. Mr. Bright said with great justice that it would form a restriction on the quantity of the voters admitted to the Register without per ceptilly affecting their quality. It seems probable, however, that Mr. Bright exaggerated the numbers who would be denied the privilege of voting by the restriction of second year's residence. lie assumed the condition of two years' residence would be just double that of the twelvemonths' limit; and that as the 1,800 ten pound householders of Roch ' dale are reduced to 1,500 voters by the necessity of a year's residence, they would fall to 1 , 200 if two years were required. In truth, however, householders of migratory habits are a peculiar class, whose tenure of residence is to be reckoned by months, and the number of persons who have inhabited the same dwelling between one and two years would beprac tically found much less than those wh o have notot in one place for a single year. W e with out some evidence upon the sub j ect. dPar li am entary • boroughs where the municipa l an limits are coincident —where ; .we n - - compare are e T n here are reaidence the effect of the condition of two yam that of a elector—and the necessary for the Municipal Franchise with year required of Parliamentary t of the strongest year shows that the e The strongest al of the Government year is on the whole argument against the pro numbers off the Re was that it would keep unimportecnt. as to the course the We can entertain no doubtwith gister, but that it wouldbare reference to last Government will followA vgeicatiousand irritating. t rton ,ons 'a night's division.

There is, indeed, much to be done, and, though the progress of the bill has been so for satis factory, there is little time to spare. Th e notice book is still crowded with amendments, which at first sight inspire some d ou b t as to the may ie possibi lity of carrying the bill through coi • nmittee in the limited number of nights remaining at the disposal of the Government. Many of will disappear as Lord G the amendments rosvenor's disappeared, and others stand or fall together, so that a discus sion of one involves the fate of many. We look upon the discussion of last night —at once brief and exhaustive--as an earnest of the future temper of the committee, and as a promise of that unison of feeling between the Government and Parliament which makes a legislative settlement of Reform a matter of reasonable • certainty.

BONUS MEETING, 1867: The Report presented at a Meeting held on the 3d January last, for the declaration of the EIGHTH BONUS, showed, 1. As TO THE PROGRESS OF THE SOCIETY, that, during the quinquennial period which terminated on the 30th June, 1866, NEW ASSURANCES for a total sum of £1,518,181, and yielding £50,497 in Antuarleamithits; hid been effected, of which sums the forma'. exce6ded'hY X 3 yBll, and the latter by £2,392, the corr esponding items `of- any previous period ; that • . • THE INCOME had increased from £195,400 to £215,327 per annum; and that THE ASSURANCE FUND, after payment of £85,303 on account of Bonus at the last Division, had risen from £1,422,191 to £1,619,539. 2. As TO THE FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE SOCIETY. -- That the Assets on June 30, 1866, were £1,619,539 14 8 And the Liabilities on the same date ... 1,343,708 19 2 Leaving a surplus of X275,830 15 6 and that, after setting aside £50,000 as a special Reserve Fund, THE AVAILABLE PROFIT was £225,830 15s. 6d., of which sum £225,000 was recommended for division. 3. As TO THE RESULTS OF THE DITISION. That the portion of this sum of .£225,000--viz., five-sixths, or £lB7,soo—which fell to the Assured, would yield a REVERSIONARY ADDITION TO THE POLICIES of £272,682, averaging 45 per Cent., or varying, with the different ages,•from 32 to 85 per Cent. on the premiums paid since the last division; and that the CASH BONUS, which is the exact equivalent of such Reversionary Bonus, would average 26 per Cent. of the like premiums. The Report explained at length the nature of the In vestments and the bases of the Calculations, the results of which, as above shown, are eminently favourable. The next DIVISION OF PROFITS will take place in January, 1872, and Persons who effect NEW POLICIES BEFORE THE END OF JUNE NEXT will be entitled at that Division to one year's additional share of Profits over later Assurers.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. CHESTER RACES. THURSDAY. A great contrast, to yesterday in the aspect of the course, but an improvement in other respects —a better card and better sport. The Dee Stakes, once an important test for the Derby, has of late years dwindled down to a very small affair, and to-day the issue lay between The Rescue and Van Amburgh, , for Wild Wind, though a starter, could not be considered as in the race. The betting see-sawed between th e two, but when the flag fell Lord Coventry's colt was the favourite. But his yesterday's gallop in the Cup did not improve his chance, and Van Amburgh shook him off at the distance and won very easily. Moulsay's easy win in the Marquis of Westminster's. Plate proved that but for Grim shaw's losing his stirrup-iron in the Cup race yesterday, he would have been very near the first, if not the actual winner. The Two-year-old Plate was a good race between Lady Highthorn and Timaru, a dark Newminster filly, who very nearly upset the shade of odds laid on Mr. Naylor's filly.
