By F. B. COURTENAY, • • - - And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan_ Infirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. " This work Is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuab_ contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

WARWICK RACES.-THURSDAY. Notwithstanding the counter attraction of the Grand Mi litary Steeplechases at Cheltenham, the improvement in the weather, and the interest created by the annual steeple chaso, led to an increased attendance in the stand. The sport was first-rate, and the Warwickshire folks have rarely had so fine an afternoon's sport afforded them. Betting on future events was dull, and confined to an improvement in Dundee for the Derby, and on Matador for the Two Thou sand Guineas. Handicap Hurdle Race of 5 sovs each, 1 ft, with 30 added ; a winner of a handicap hurdle race after the declaration of the weights (Mai ah 14, at noon) to carry 71b extra.

Grenadier made the running to the turn, where he was joined by Bonny Lass and the Windischgratz filly, who ran abreast to the stand, where Yafa went up, and defeated them rapidly by three lengths ; two lengths between second and third. Grand Annual Steeplechase (handicap) of 20 sovs each, 10 ft, and 5 only if declared to Mr. S. Merry only, on or or before the 19th of March, with £lOO added.

Betting-5 to 4 agst Cosmopolite, sto 1 agst Penarth and Jerusalem, and 6 to 1 aest Ghika. At starting Penarth made the running, followed by Huntsrmin, Tumbler, Jerusalem, and Anatis, in the order given. On coming to the Lammas meadows Anatis went to the front, end was the first over the fence leading into the Swan field, as well as over the brook, but at the Hill house she was passed by Jerusalem, and no change took place until they reached the Lammas field a second time, when Cosmopolite fell and threw her jockey, and Anatis retired into the rear. Penarth took command of the re mainder, as they jumped the brook for the last time, and led them to the hurdles into the racecourse, where Ghika passed him. Mr. Bevill, however, nursing his horse very steadily, came again at the stand and won very cleverly by two lengths. Tumbler was beaten only three parts of a length for the third place. A Handicap Steeplechase of 5 sovs each, 2 ft, with 50 added, for all horses. Mr. W. Holman's ch e: Bantam, 5 yrs 9st 51b (Mr. W. Bevill) 1 Mr. Byrn's ch f Topsy, aged, lOst 31b. (Kendall) 2 Mr. B.

Merlin made the running at starting, with the Unknown and Huntsman next. As they approached the Brook, Monmouthshire rushed to the front, and cleared it in ad vance of the others, and maintained his lead until they came into the racecourse, when Balzarine joined, and a long interesting struggle between the pair ended in favour of the mare by a length and a•half. Cliff Pigeon was a bad third. LATEST BETTING.

Betting-5 to 2 agst Medora, 3to 1 agst Enniskillen, 4to 1 agst Gray Peter, 5 to 1 each agst Ralph and Lutterworth, and 7 to 1 agst Warrior. Gray Peter led over the first three fields, with Laudanum and Nimrod in the second and third places,. Medora head ing the ruck, which very soon began to spread. Medora fell at the lane and broke a stirrup leather ; Laudanum re • fused the first fence ; Gray Peter refused the third five times; Nimrod then got the lead, and Enniskillen took second place. Passing the stand the first time Enniskillen had obtained the lead, with Laudanum second, Warrior third, and Nimrod fourth ; no other was near. At the furthest flag Enniskillen refused, and Laudanum took the lead, followed by Warrior. In the last field from home Laudanum had a commanding lead, and Enniskillen over hauled Warrior. Laudanum swerved in jumping the last fence, and fell on his side. Enniskillen then went on, and BETTING AT MANCHESTER-THURSDAY. Dundee was nit firm for the Derby to-day, 9 to 2 being freely offered against him. Rouge Dragon was in much request for this event, and all the 25's to 1 that, could be obtained were taken about him. Matador, about whom a bet of 300 to 100 was booked for the "blue ribbon," was supported for the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes at 100 to 9. 10 to 1 was offered on the field for the City and Suburban Handicap, and Chance Shot was rather freely supported for the same event, but 22 to 1 was the lowest price that we saw taken. Butterfly and Sweet Hawthorn were in much request for the Chester Cup, but no one seemed disposed to make any offer against Chere Arnie. 100 to 8 was offered on the field for the Northamptonshire Stakes. For the Great Metropolitan Stakes Betts would have been supported, but 8 to 1 was the only bet we saw taken, and that merely to a small sum, from which circum stance we are inclined to believe that there are but few books opened on the last-named event.

The Bankruptcy Bill is receiving its last exami nation in detail by the Commons previous to being sent forth from that house as an exposition of what a law of debtor and creditor should be. It would be premature to say that the measure as it now stands is to be our law for the future. It has to undergo yet another ordeal, through which it will probably not pass altogether unscathed. The Lords, how ever, are not likely to interfere with those parts of the bill which are looked upon as most important by the commercial classes ; nor is it probable that any difference of opinion can arise between the two houses which will be sufficient to prevent Sir Richard Bethell's second bankruptcy attempt from becoming law. Fragmentary and imperfect as it is, it is still a very considerable achievement for a House of Commons at this early period of the ses sion, and, so far as we can judge of it with its pre sent rather unreadable manuscript corrections and interpolations, it promises to satisfy all the imme diate exigencies of the commercial body. It is undoubtedly a disadvantage, as Mr. Henley last night complained, that this bill has not been reprinted since it passed through committee. It is scaroely possible as it now stands for any one to retain a clear idea of the whole scope of the amendments which have been made or to calcu late their action upon the working of the scheme as originally proposed. We speak, therefore, with a reservation when we say that the principal objects for which it was prepared seem to be attained by the measure as it came out of Com mittee and as it now appears. It simplifies the whole of the proceedings in the collection and distribution of an insolvent estate. It defines with what at present appears to be sufficient precision the circum stances which shall justify a man's creditors in taking his property out of his hands and dividing it to satisfy his debts. It separates the questions of law which may arise as to the debtor's liabilities from the mere administrative functions of collec tion and distribution. It creates a Judge who shall be the supreme authority as to the law, and it allows to the creditors the control of the funds. It makes wholesome provision for keeping down the expense, and it relieves the estate from the unne cessary charges accumulated by the court func tionaries. These are in themselves very great improvements upon the old system. But it also provides machinery by which the small estate of a bankrupt who has not soared into the higher, and, as it seems to be considered, the more respectable, atmosphere of debt, can be distributed without being entirely consumed as fuel for the great steam engine which used to be set at work. Moreover, it does all this without demanding any unreason able sacrifice from the public resources, and with out injustice to any one, except, perhaps, the County Court Judges—those patient camels who are always kneeling to take up more burdens, and who are always being fed with promises which fail on their way to performance. All this is discernible in the Bill as it stands. We hope to coo it more clearly when its clauses have fallen into rank, and have been duly drilled by the Attorney-General and his adjutant, the Queen's printer. Up to this point the Bill only undertakes the humble but most useful office of making reco very by Bankruptcy as cheap and efficient as the circumstances of the debtor's estate will admit. Up to this also the House of Commons have placed themselves with a simple faith under the guidance of the Attorney-General. So, when Sir Richard Bethell swept away the whole absurdity of classed certificates, and the medieval contrivance of punish ing an imprudent or fraudulent trader by an en forced condition of idleness, the House was still ductile. When, moreover, for the first time, fraudu lent trading was made a criminal offence, no one objected ; although some perhaps may have won dered why so noxious a crime should be touched so tenderly, and why the power of the Judge to sen tence should be so very limited. All these divisions of the Bill, however, passed with an unanimity and good-will which we cannot too much commend, and which we hope will be rewarded by the proof here after that the care of the draughtsman was equal to the confidence reposed in him by the Legislature. No serious fight took place until Sir Richard Bethell passed out of the old domain of Bankruptcy, and un dertook to search all the kingdom through and bring every one within its purview. This is the weak point of the measure. We were the first to point out the consequences which must arise from subjecting two classes of different habits and necessities in relation to their money arrangements to similar rules in respect of their obligations ; and the mistake Sir R. Bothell made in this matter caused the miscar riage of his former bill. Sir Hugh Cairns and Sir George Bowyer have worked this subject in the present session, and last night the Attorney-General, under the pressure of their opposition, agreed that a non-trader shall when abroad not be made a bankrupt until some serious attempt has been made to serve him with a notice that this contingency is impending over him. The concession is not unrea sonable. It is no more than the Common Law Procedure Act already enacts as a preliminary to getting a judgment against a man who is absent from the country. It is, however, some protection against experimental lawyers of a certain caste, and some safeguard against the easy gratification of malevolence. Whether it is sufficient we shall be better able to judge when we see the provision in print. In another foray into regions beyond the necessary scope of a Bankruptcy Bill the Attorney- General was less prudent and less fortunate. Per haps with some classical recollections of the practice of the Egyptians, he proposed to make dead men bankrupt. Clause 237 had during the discussions acquired the short title of " the dead man's clause." The determination of the Attorney-General to re tain this excrescence upon his bill led him into a defeat ; and, if we non-traders must live in some terror of this universal possibility of bankruptcy, we may at any rate die without fear of the Gazette. A discussion raised by Mr. Ayrton upon the clause of the bill which provides that persqns im prisoned under the County Court Acts shall not be released lets in the whole question of a distinction, between the rich and poor in the law of debtor and creditor. We are quite sure that it would astonish the, public if the County Court Judges, ,were to describe the operation of the imprisonment clauses of the County Court Acts —with what cruelty they often work, and what protection they afford to the " tally-men," who press the families of artisans to take on credit unnecessary goods at exorbitant prices. These, however, are only matters which cause a little friction in the passage of the measure. In no case do they go to the vital parts of the bill. Even the fusion of bankruptcy and insolvency is admitted to be most convenient in itself; and if the Attorney-General will only satisfy the non-trading portion of the community that he does not insist upon rendering it a pre sumption of law that they keep a shop or a count in -house, and are always at home ready at any hour to pay any bill that may be presented to them at a moment's notice, the division against Sir H. Cairn's attempt to alter the interpretation clause makes it evident that the House of Commons has no to his fusion principle, and has every desire to pass his bill.--Tines. LAW INTELLIGENCE.—March 21. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) PEAKE V. PEAKE.-INCEST. In July, 1850, the respondent, a pocket-book manufacturer in London, married the petitioner, and resided with her about six years. In 1856, Elizabeth Divine, his wife's sister, went to live with them in Union : street, Edgware-road, where it was alleged that an incestuous intimacy sprung up between her and the respondent. The landlady told the petitioner what she had observed between them, and a separation ensued. Peake then co habited with his sister-in-law. The court made a decree nisi. BRAMALL V. BRAMALL.-BIGAMY. The respondent, a druggist in the West country, married Rebecca Coath, at Stoke Damerel, in 1839 ; but after a short time he deserted her. In 1842, he married Elizabeth Tinley at Barnstaple, under the n - me of Henry Bennett. He repeated this offence of bigamy several times ; and in 1848 he was con victed at the Old Bailey on two indictments; for which he was sentenced to 14 years' transportation. Dr. Spinks appeared for the petitioner. The court dissolved the marriage. FOWLER V. FOWLER. The petitioner, a mariner, married the respon dent in Cumberbind, on the 26th of April, 1836, and had by her eight children, of whom four sur vived. The respondent unfortunately took to drinking. In 1859, while her husband was absent from the country, she was delivered of a child in Whitehaven workhouse, under circumstances which left no doubt as to her adultery. Dr. Spinks appeared for the husband. The court dissolved the marriage. TOWNSON V. TOWNSON AND MURRAY. Dr. Phillimore, Q.C., and Dr. Spinks appeared for the petitioner ; Dr. Swabey for the respondent. The parties were married at Lancaster in 1853, and had had two children, of whom one survived. The husband was a publican at Liverpool, and in 1856 his wife contracted very disgusting habits of intoxication. On one occasion her husband took steps to summon her before the magistrates for assaulting him, and on another she was actually brought up at the police court for having been found drunk, and incapable in the streets. There were several separations, but the cohabitation was not finally severed till April, 1860, when she went home late one night and drunk. An altercation ensued of a character which compelled the petitioner to turn her out into the street, and to shut up his house. At first the police took her away, but she succeeded in getting from them, and coming back made a noise at the door. The petitioner still refused to admit her; and at a later period she committed the act of adultery complained of with a butcher. Dr. Swabey made an attempt to show that her fault was owing to the husband's ill treatment; but The Court granted a rule nisi. Dr. Swabey asked whether the Court did not think it a case in which some provision ought to be made for the wife? Sir C. Cresswell certainly did not. She had had many chances of reforming, but she had chosen to pursue the same filthy course. The next three cases on the list were abated by the death of one or other of the parties. BARLOW V. BARLOW AND TAYLOR. The parties were married in 1839, and had had three children. In 1852 Mrs. Barlow, who was the wife of a merchant in the borough, became attached to the son of another merchant who had offices un der the same roof. Mr. Barlow remonstrated with her, and a quarrel ensued which led to a separation. A lady who was a friend of hers endeavoured to persuade her to return to her husband, but she de. dared that her mind was made up never to see him again. Some years afterwards it was found that Mr. Taylor had taken lodgings under an assumed name, and had lived with the respondent as man and wife. A medical practitioner, who was called, proved the birth of a fourth child. Dr. Spinks and Mr. Searle appeared for the petitioner ; Dr. Deane, Q.C., was counsel to the co-respondent, who had pleaded a denial of the charge, but he offered no defence. The Court made a decree nisi. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. OXFORD CIRCUIT.—STAFFORD, March 20. (Before Mr. Baron Wilde.) lIANLEY V. SMITEL-BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.-" MAY AND DECEMBER." Sergeant Piggott and Mr. Wade for the plaintiff; Mr. Huddleston, Q.C., for defendant. The damages were laid at £5OO, but the defendant admitting the breach of promise, pleaded that £5O was sufficient damages, and therefore paid that sum into court. In opening the plaintiff's case, the learned ser geant stated that the plaintiff, Marian Hanley, was about twenty•one years of age, and the daughter of James Hanley, a farmer, under the Earl of Brad ford, at Brancote, in Staffordshire. Defendant occupied an adjoining farm of 180 or 200 acres, was about seventy-five years of age, and had been all his life a bachelor. The fact that defendant was so old only concerned the plaintiff; and he (Sergeant Piggott) thought defendant ought to pay rather more damages than less on that account, because he had made a fool of a young lady who could not have had so much experience of the world as he had. He began by paying plaintiff attentions, familiarly "chucked" her under the chin, and called her his little wife. He drove her to Handsworth to see some of her relations upon two occasions, and in September, 1859, he made her an offer of mar rage. He visited her regularly afterwards, and in January or February, 1860, he asked plaintiff and her mother to come and see the residence he had prepared for plaintiff, and which she was soon to be the mistress of. He then said they should be mar ried in a month, and he would make a settlement upon her so that she might be independent of her family. He went to a tailor's to be decked out in the most comely way; the wedding dress, wedding cake, and ring were bought, and he went with plain tiff's father to buy the license. Thus all things were ready for the wedding ; but when the ap pointed day came the defendant postponed it, and continued doing so time after time till Novem ber last, when plaintiff's parents called upon him to marry her, or say he would not, in order that they might know in what position they stood. The learned counsel then went on to compare the case with " Bardell v. Pickwick, stating that de fendant tried to produce an effect, and came into court with dishevelled hair, unshaven, un washed, and with no collar on, in order that by looking wretched, he might induCe the jury to believe that plaintiff had not lost much in losing him. That was his " little game " (laughter) but it was to be hoped it would not succeed, after he had deliber ately chosen to play with plaintiff's affections for two years, and had put her to great expense in purchasing the necessaries for the wedding. She was a very respectable young woman, was fit in every way to be a farmer's wife, and it would have been a great improvement in her position to have been transferred to a farm of two hundred acres of land, and to have a husband—if she did not object --- - Ann Hanley, mother of plaintiff, was then called. She stated she was the wife of James Hanley, a farmer, of Brancote, where he had lived ten years. Defendant during that period had lived on a farm about 150 or 200 yards off, and had been on terms of intimacy with the family. He had paid atten tions to her daughter, and had called her his little wife. Witness recollected her daughter going to Birmingham in September, 1859, upon which occasion defendant drove her to the Albrighton station in his gig. On her return he sent a servant with a shawl an cloak to cover her with. Defen dant talked to a man named Weston about the plaintiff, and said he would marry her if he lived. He also said he would settle something ou her in order that she might not want after he was gone, as, being a poor-law guardian, he had seen so much distress and want. Witness went through defendant's house, in company with her daughter, in January, 1860, and, in answer to defendant's questions, expressed her satisfaction with the house and its appointments. Upon that occasion defendant gave his word that the wedding should, take place in a month, Witness then took defen dant to her tailor (laughter) to be measured for some new clothes ; and the wedding drese, cake,' and ring were also bought. They afterwards pi turned home together. Witness's daughter was twenty-one years of age last May. Cross-examined by Mr Huddleston—Mr. Smith (the defendant) had been an" old boy" ever since she had known him; but she did not think L 75. She had known him ten years. Her tailor's name was Crosby. (Laughter.) She declined' to say whether he ever measured her for clothes. (Renewed laughter.) Did not take defendant there to be " dressed up," nor did she recommend him trousers, nor choose the pattern of the waist coat. As defendant put the wedding day off, they " made use" of the wedding cake; that is, she and her friends ate it. (Laughter.) In re-examination witness said she went to a tailor's because defendant asked her. James Hanley, father of plaintiff, deposed that he did not assent to the match at first because of the disparity of age, but ultimately he did. Plain tiff was the youngest of seven children. Defendant was a churchwarden, and a poor law guardian. John Hanley, plaintiff's brother, stated that he went according to defendant's wish to look at a farm which he proposed to purchase and settle on the plaintiff. Cross-examined—Defendant had suffered from a bed leg, but not for the last two or three years. Eliza Green, wife of the surgeon who attended defendant for his leg, stated, in cross-examination, that she had never heard plaintiff call defendant an old fool. (Laughter.) No other witnesses were called. Mr. Huddleston made a very humorous address to the jury, remarking upon the anxiety displayed by Mrs. Hanley, when she took defendant to her tailor—(laughterj—as to how he was to be dressed. If she had the dressing of him, no doubt his learned friend would have had no occasion to call attention to his appearance as he had done. Considerable merriment was also occasioned by the learned counsel reading the following imaginary delibera tion as to how defendant was to be attired when he was married : " Pray, how was the suitor to be dressed ? Oh ! he was to be dressed in his Sunday best ; His coat to be blue, and his peg-tops, too, And pockets there for his hands to go through." Mr. Huddleston went on to make fun of the as sumption that the loss of such an elderly man could be a serious loss to the plaintiff, and characterised the whole affair as a mercenary proceeding on the part of the parents. The Judge, in summing up, remarked upon the fact that the counsel on both sides had made fun of the defendant ; one with the idea of increasing, and the other with the idea of decreasing the damages. It appeared, however, to be a regular straightfor ward affair, and he did not think there was any justification for accusing the parents of any merce nary feeling. After a short deliberation, the jury returned a verdict for plaintiff—damages £lOO, iu addition to the £5O paid into court. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—TAUNTON, MARcn 21. (Before Mr. Justice Wiles and a Special Jury.) TREWMAN V. SCRIVEN.-SLANDER. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, the Rev.A. F. 'frewman, the vicar of llminster, against the defendant, a youth who had been discharged from his employment, for slanderous words, imput ing to the plaintiff conduct towards him of the most revolting description. Sir F. Slade, Mr. M. Smith, and Mr. Cole ap peared for the plaintiff; Mr. Collier and Mr. Kingdon for the defendant. Such was the disgusting nature of the case that his lordship suggested before going into it, that some other means should be taken of bringing it to an issue than going into the details in open court. This suggestion, however, could not be carried out, as the plaintiff was anxious for a full and public vindication of his character after the charges which had been brought againt him.

QUALIFICATIONS FOR OFFICES BILL.—We gave yesterday a list of the Lords who voted on Tuesday for this bill, which abolishes the declaratien now required to be taken by members of municipal bodies and others not to exercise their official power to damage the Church establish ment. Last year only 21 peers supported the bill, 44 oppo sing it. This year it was supported by 38 against 49 ; the majority against it being reduced from 23 to 11. Only four members of the Episcopal Bench—the Archbishop of Can terbury and the Bishops of London, Carlisle, and Llandaff —were present ; but they all voted against the bill, notwith standing Lord Taunton's solemn appeal to them to put an end to the present profane appeal to the Deity. The rest of its opponents were for the most part Conservative.

Fellowes, flag of Admiral John Smart, ,got up steam on Wednesday, and went from Hamoaze into Plymouth Sound, for the purpose of .ascertaining the nature of the defects in her machinery. It the bearings are out of order, and that ..dbjeet to an.excessive trembling motion when under steam; lir. Ward, from Key *yard, and Mr. Steel, of the Steam Reserve, were on board. In consequence of the state of the weather she did not get beyond the Sound. She returned to the harbour again in the latter part of the day. Rumour says the Howe, 121, screw, is likely to be substituted for the flag ship of the Channel fleet, in the place of the Princess Royal. The screw steam sloop Pantaloon, 11, was put out of Keyham steamyard on Wednesday, and is now alongside the hulk Endymion, in Hamoaze. Rear-Admiral Robinson is on an official visit at Devonport. On Wednesday morning he had a long interview with Admiral Sir Thomas Pasley, superintendent of the dockyard, with whom he went in the afternoon to Keyham steamyard,where they had a conference with Mr. Loyalty Peake, the master builder. The gunboat Spider, at Plymouth, is to be fitted for the first division of the steam ordinary, in the room of the Procris, 3, recently put in commission, and which will be completed by to-morrow. The following is a revised list of labourers at Devonport dockyard :—ln storehouses, 19 men-3s to 38 6d per day ; single station men, 20-2 s 6d to 3s Gd ; labourers in millwright's shop, 21-3 s 6d ; for general employment, 167-2 s 4d; total on the establishment, 238. Hired labourers, first class, 2s 3d per day; second, 2s 2d (320), with power of increasing the second class when necessary. The undernamed have been nominated to naval cadetships Wilson, Cecil Henry Wright, and Alfred Wm. Brookes. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—Henry Loney, surgeon, to the Racoon; Benjamin Barber, promoted to the rank of chief engineer; Robert Hetherington, pro moted to the rank of second class assist.-engineer in the Asia as supernumerary ; George Roe, acting second class assist.-engineer, to the Indus as super numerary ; and H.

In accordance with orders issued by Colonel Chapman, C. 8., Deputy-Adjutant-General of the Royal Engineers, the 2d Company of Royal Engi neers, under the command of Lieut. A. I. Mac donnell, wilt leave Brompton barracks, Chatham, this morning and proceed to Aldershott camp, where it will relieve the 18th (Capt. G. Longley's) com• parry, which has received orders to quit the camp and proceed to Portsmouth, there to relieve the 36th (Capt. E. 0. Hewett's) company. The 36th company will move to Chatham this day for the purpose of forming one of the Tour depot companies of Royal Engineers ordered to be organised at head-quarters. The Duke of Newcastle, on the recommendation of Col. St. G eorge O r d, R .E., has appointed Ser geant-Instructor Adam s , R.E., who was i n c h arge of the party of Royal and Indian Engineers on the occasion of the late explosion at the Royal En gineer laboratory, and who was subsequently dis missed from that appointment, to be foreman of works at the Bermuda convict prison. Sergeant Adams will at once leave the corps of Royal Engineers and proceed to his post at Bermuda. The proceedings and finding of a somewhat remarkable trial by district court-martial, which has recently taken place at Chatham, on a Sapper of the Indian Engineers, named Benjamin Emmons, having been confirmed by the Major-General com manding the district, have been promulgated to the troops. The prisoner was tried for the serious offence of striking his superior officer, Sergeant Bergin, Royal Engineers, while in the execu tion of his duty, but during the trial it was elicited that the non-commissioned officer on being struck by the prisoner immediately knocked him down and severely assaulted him, after which he handed him over to be tried by court martial. The Court, on these facts being esta blished, strongly animadverted in their finding on the conduct of Sergeant Bergin, but at the same time sentenced the prisoner to 168 days' impri sonment. On the sentence being submitted to Major-Gen. Eyre he severely censured the con duct of the sergeant, who himself ought to have been tried by court-martial, and directed 140 days of the prisoner's sentence to be remitted, at the same time ordering Sergeant Bergin •to be severely reprimanded in the presence of the whole of the non-commissioned officers; which order has been carried into effect. The Rev. H. P. Wright, chaplain to the forces, and formerly principal chaplain to the army in the Crimea, bas been appointed to the Archdeaconry of British Columbia. This appointment does not remove Mr. Wright from his long connection with the army. The let battalion 11th Regiment (North Devon), under the command of Col.
