THE NEW " LONG-RANGE" CANNON. Captain Ilarryatt, whose writings are so well known to all of us, wrote, amongst other works, one which he called the " Pirate." The work to which allusion is made contains the history of a sentimental scoundrel, who found no other vent for his energies than piracy on the high seas. At the present moment we have nothing to do with the work in question, except in relation to an incident which the gallant anther records or invents. The pirate hero gains his ends by pommelling his ad versary with a gun having a long range. His adversary could not touch him ; but by means of the long range gun the pirate was enabled to silence any opposition which might have been offered to him under other cir- eumstances. It seems for the first time now to have struck our authorities that that which is good for pirates may be useful to honest men. Marryatt's pirate, with his long-range carronade, riddled his enemy with shots which could never be returned. Why should not honest men be enabled to adopt the same measures so graphically described as useful to pirates 1 Marryatt's work was written 20 years ago, at least. For the first time since that period we begin to have evidence that his sketch may be realised. We learn, for instance, that one of the lono-range Lancaster guns has lately been mounted on the Arrow, and has been trying its range at Sebastopol : "One of the long-range Lancaster guns has been mounted on the Arrow, and for the last few days been trying its range upon the fortress. Its success has exceeded the most sanguine expectations, and there is no doubt that had we more of them we might, in a fortnight, destroy the whole town, shipping, and fortifications of Sebastopol, without the loss of a man on our side. The first few shots fired by the Arrow, at three miles, the gun was too elevated, and the ball passed far over the whole place. Afterwards the range was precisely taken, and for three. hours shot and shell were thrown into the nearest battery until it was com pletely destroyed. For the last half-hour of the firing it never returned a shot. But this, it appears, is by no means the sole merit of the gun. It weakens the resources of Sebastopol still more fatally than by knocking up bat teries. Under the natural - belief that because their works were in range, the vessel which fired must be in range also, the Russians returned a tremendous fire, but every. shot sank in the sea at about three-quarters of a mile dis tance from the Arrow. Unless there are incredible stores of ammunition in Sebastopol, such a mode of fighting must soon leave them without a shot." The success of the long-range Lancaster seems to have exceeded the most sanguine expectations. We are told that there is little doubt that were there more of them, " we might in a fortnight destroy the whole shipping and fortifications of Sebastopol without the loss of a man on our aide." This would be the very triumph of science. We have no right to expect th we can ;beat the brute force of barbarism exceot by the means which our civilisation puts into our I;ands. The Czar is as powerful a man as Lord Raglan. His soldiers are not very much below the standard of physi cal strength which we require in our own men. We believe certainly that the pluck and constancy of our troops render them invincible NI lien opposed to the soul less bodies which form the legions of the Autocrat,. Nevertheless, numbers mean something in warfare. It is quite clear, that if the struggle between Great Britain and Ruma were to be decided by the opposition of man to man, the numerical superiority of Russia, with re spect to inhabitants, would give it supremacy. But we do not intend that the contest shall be decided by brute force. We cannot give up the advantage which we have obtained by our civilisation and cul ture. We will not allow the Czar to come to us and say, let us decide the contest between us by mere brute force. No. We have got beyond mere brute force. NVe have made irruptions into the regions of earth and air by means of science, and have dragged • the . .ce treasures which we intend to render available against our future enemies. We are lords of earth, air, fire, and water ; and we do not intend to spare our servants-when we want their assistance. The Czar has millions of serfs. We have tifousands of reasoning men. The man of reason rnu,it not lower himself to the dimensions of the serf. He must show that he has re sources which are beyond the reach of the savage. It Las been - said before in The Suss that enough notice has not been taken of the great resources which science put.; into our hands. We ought to call upon science to re lieve na from the dirty work of beating barbarism with its own tools. We have lived for nothing if our strength is to be estimated by the comparative magnitude of the census of England and that of our opponents. We must call all our scientific resources into play, and show the Czar that his physical strength is a mere nothing when brought into collision with that which the mental ener gies of civilised England can generate. We hear that when the range of the Lancaster gun mounted on the Arrow was precisely taken, for three hours shot and shell were thrown into the nearest battery until it was completely destroyed. It must be remembered that the Arrow and the Lancaster gun were thoroughly out of the reach of the enemy's batteries. Whatever damage the Arrow with its gun did to Sebastopol it could suffer no punishment in return. This surely is a great lesson to us. We ought to turn our attention to the scientific improvement of our re sources, without neglecting those which depend upon mere physical force. We ought to be able to destroy Sebastopol and Cronstadt, and any other stronghold, without suffering from the attack in our own persons. 'We ought to weaken the resources of Sebastopol, as the Arrow did, by enticing them to fire upon us when we are beyond their range. Unless there are incredible stores of ammunition In Sebastopol, observes a report, such a mode of fighting must soon leave them without a shot. Let us have them, then, without a shot. We have force enough in our own hands to compel the Russians to accede to our own term; if we know how to avail ourselves of it. We have no right to sacrifice men if we can attain the object of the sacrifice by scientific moans. The Czar's strength lies in the number of his serfs. Ours lies in the com.age of our men and the cul tivation of the national intellect. It is our fault if we give up the chance which Providence has decided in our favour. THE "TIMES" AND THE BENEVOLENT FUND. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIII,—.A. morning paper which, to describe it in its . own words, "happens to be called the Times," spread dismay -in the bosom of many a family, and excited a large amount of public indignetion against the military authorities, by its statements regarding the inadequate provision made for the treatment of the wounded in the East. The charges brought forward in its columns were that there was not a sufficient supply of surgeons, that there were no nurses or dressers, and that there was not even linen or lint to bind the wounds. Believing the truth of this statement, some benevolent individuals, headed by Sir Robert Peel, commenced a subscription to vend out comforts to the wounded in the military hospi tal at Constantinople, and to supply the deficiencies which reflected such discredit on the Government. The sums • subscribed were sent to the Times office, and were by it • to ee forwarded to Messrs. Cnitts and Co. ' s " excellent correspondent at Constantinople," there to await ,the or ders of the donors. After a lapse of four days, finding- it bad gone rather too far, this veracious journal qualifiedits first statement by admitting the impossibility of any army being provided with a r.taff sufficient to bring im• mediate assistance to all the wounded in such as action as that of the Alna, withdrawing the charge as regarded the personnel of the medical department in the field and on the voyage, but adhering to the rest of the statement. Two days later comes a document from the Director- General of the Army Medical Department detailing the various stores and comforts sent out, and a letter from Lieut. Fo• tar, of the 95th Regiment, who was himself a patient in the hospital at Scutari when the wounded were brought in, testifying from personal observation to the care bestowed upon them and the ample supply of medi cal stores available for their use. The Times thereupon suggests that Dr. Smith's supplies may have gone amissing, and avows his preference of belief in the statement "our own correspondent," as to matters which he proba bly did not see, to that of the gallant officer on inattere which be did see. On another point a wondrous "change came o'er the Ppi rit of his dream." The donations of the benerolent are no lengcr to be entrusted to :if essra. Cautts and Co.'s "excellent correspondent at Canstan tinoole," but " ono of the most trustworti,y of our o a-n s t a ff," is to be forthwith sent out as almoner ! It may be worth while to ask to whom, and in what manlier, is he to distribute the mon e y ? Nothing cull be given to any patient in the hospit a l w i t h out the sanction of the surgeon in charge. He states that he has already all the necessaries and comforts at command which he requires, and will, of course, refuse to a d m it any he ; deems suprffuous. The " aunoner's"attenlicn s niuq therefore be devoted to the convalescents out of hospital, and if so, the sooner Lord Raglan sends a Depute Pro vo Marshal to Constantinople the Letter. The liberality of the aforesaid almoner will soon find him plenty of out trained nurses is lunch work. The plan of sending more feasible. There can be no doubt that if respectable sober nurses can be procured, their attentions to the severely wounded will be very valuable. Even this, how ever, must be done carefully, for there can be but little control over these nurses compared with that over a soldier, and the attention paid by so i. (4ers who are convalescent to their less fortunate com rades, is described by tho se who have abundant oppor tunities ofj ode rig as beyond a!1 raise. We are apt to a look upo n soldiers rough andready fellows, endowati with a small arnounes • them in. the sick -Aar feeling ;but those who and at the b e d s id e of their coin - sent raciest give a very des er i pte ion of them.

DIFFICULTY OF INVADING ENGLAND.—Th e adunir a bl e nature of almcst every part of this empir e f or d efensive warfare is a fact which cannot be toe fre quent l y men. tioned. The country, unlike the greatest part of the Continent, is laid out in fields, varying in size from one or two to fifty acres, but the average about sight, being separated from each other either by stone walls, or fences of thorn, or other growing shrubs, behind which, even in Winter, when divnsted of leaves, its defenders could not be discerned. Thick woods and copse are also inter spersed as over the country, within short distances of each other, making it the bast adapted country in the world for defensive warfare by irregular . troops ; for militia, yeomanly, and volunteer corps, with the 7 pr tial training, cannot be consi,e:•ed othowae.—the Vo lunteet Rifleman. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. PUSEYITE DISTURBANCB AT ST. PAUL'S CHURCII, KNIGHT - 6B LI.DGE. At one o'clock yesterday Mr. C. Wesierton, the hurck warden of St. Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, at - nded before Mr. Arnold, the sitting magistrate at Westminster Police-court, in answer to a summons taken out against him by Mr. Ernest Fitzroy. The proceedings arose out of the ecclesiastical differences which have recently taken place at St. Paul's Church, Wilton-place, and which last Sunday morning led to a personal conflict between Mr. Westerton, who is styled the "Protestant churchwarden," and Mr. Fitzroy, who is known as the " Puseyito ring leader." The court was crowded with partisans on either sido, and it u ould be difficult to say whether Tracts.- rianism or Evangelicalism was the more powerfully repre sented. The Ron. and Rev. Robert Liddell, M.A., the incumbent of St. Paul's, and the Re►. G. R. Portal, one of the curates, were accommodated with seats on the bench. Mr. Ballantine appeared for Mr. Fitzroy, and Mr. Wes tert-n was represented by Mr. Parry. Mr. Ballantine said he was sure the magistrate would regret as much as any one in court that any matter con nected with the public worship of the country should be thus brought before him. The complainant was a gen tleman named Fitzroy, and Mr. IVesterton was a trades man in the neighbourhood, and had been elected to the office of churchwarden. Since tkat period the parish had been in a high state of commotion, and this particular case had pursued a course which was utterly subversive of everything like propriety in the conduct of religions ser vices. Mr. Arnold asked whether Mr. Fitzroy was s parish. ioner of St. Paul's. Mr. Ballantine believed be was not, bet that he was residing in the house of a lady who was a parishioner, and who had sublet him a portion of her pew. At all events, the churches in this country were open to any person, pa rishioner or not, who cho s e t o en t er an d con d uc t him self with propriety. The learned counsel proceeded to point out that there were parts of the Rubric which directed that certain parts of the church service—the litany particularly—should be sung or said, leaving those who read the rubrio to follow their own inclination upon the matter. There was a strong feeling on the part of a large number of members of the Church of England that the proper course was to sing er chant the litany, and that had been the course which had been pursued for many years past at St. Paul's. Mr. Westerton, the churchwarden, seemed to be the head of a party against singing, and if he and his friends confined themselves to that there would be nothing to complain of; but the mischief was that they were determined to put down everybody whoheld opinions differeot four their own. On Sunday last Mr. Fitzroy was worsh:pping and singing the litany, when Mr. Westerton walked towards his paw, and created a row by insulting and assaulting Mr. Eitzroy, thereby disturbing the sanc tity and decency of the church. Assisted by the beadle, he dragged Mr. Fitzroy out of his pew. He did not pro ceed further, but allowed the service to go on without in terruption. Mr. Arnold said that when the cue was brought before him on a previous day, he suggested that this court was not the proper tribunal for the consideration of the cere monials of the church. He would suggest whether the proper course would not be to withdraw the summons and let the matter be brought before the superior courts. Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Parry both objected, and the case was proceeded with. Mr. Ernest James Augustus Fitzroy, of University Col lege, Durham, now residing at 20, Hans-place, the resi dence of Mrs. Backhouse, who, although residing out of the parish, was entitled to a pew in the church of St. Paul, having been one of its founders. He always attended the church of St. Paul when be was in town, and had been is the habit of singing the litany. He was sing ing on Sunday last, but not quite so loud as usual, as he had a cold, when he was seized by the arm by Mr. Wes terton, who said, " I insist on this young man being re moved from the church." Complainant resisted, and Mr. Westerton retired, but returned with the beadle bearing his staff, who said they would, remove hint from the church at any cost. He resisted, and Mr. Westerton and the beadle then retired. Cross-examined—He was quite aware that, sixteen or seventeen weeks previously, Mr. Liddell, the incumbent, hail issued a request to his parishioners to " sa y" an d no t sing" tha litany. That the reverend gentleman did by the &sire of his diocesan. He (complainant) did not go to the chur.Ai to chant the litany in direct defiance of Mr. Liddell and the bishop. Ho k new M r. B u ll oc k , a son of the Common Se.rjcant, and had seen him at St. Paul's. He lived at Giouccster-terrace, Hyde-park, and was not a parishioner of St. Paul's. He had never gone to St. Paul's with that gentleman for the purpose of chanting the ser vice. He knew that Mr. Westerton, the churchwarden, and many other parishioners, objected to chanting. It vets not the ecclesiastical custom of Durham University to fly in the face of the bishop and the minister of the parish. When he gave his address ho wrote 5, Eaton-place, South, but he never lived there. Some friends of his lived there, but he had since repudiated them. He gave Mr. Bullock's address at 50, Wilton-crescent, but he did not reside there. Mr. Parry—When you wrote those addresses, was it not a lie ? Mr. Fitzroy—l don't think so, because we might be found there. Cross-examination resumed—He did not hoar Mr. Wes terton ask him to desist from chanting. He promised Mr. Westerton to desist. He diet not remember ever having stated that it was his intention never to waive a single point, but to continue to intone the service in defiance of all opposition. Mr. Parry—What ! in spite of Mr. Liddell and the bishop? Mr. Fitzroy—l should be more likely to respect Mr. Liddell than the Bishop of London. (Laughter.) By Mr. Ballantine—At the address he gave he was well known, and some of Mr. Bullock's friends resided at the address whioh was appended to that gentleman's name. He had no desire to disturb the congregation ; and what he had done ho had done conscientiously. Mr. J. R. Atkins, of the Public Record Office, and re siding at No. 9, Halsey-street, Chelsea, said he was in the next pew 10 Mr. Fitzroy last Sunday. The congregation seemed to abstain from either chanting or singing. A body of sound in monotone came from the choir, and Mr. Fitzroy chanted. The discord was disagreeable, and wit ness was displeased with it. He saw Mr. Westerton seize hold of Mr. Fitzroy ; and witness then said aloud that Mr. Westerton's conduct was unseemly and unbecoming, esoe cially on the part of a churchwarden. Mr. Westerton then desisted. By Mr. Parry—Mr. Fitzroy's chanting was not vary loud, bit it was exceedingly discordant. Several other persons were chanting at the same time. Mr. Richard Bullock, son of the Common Serjoant, said he had an aunt living is Wilton-crescent ; it was an ad dress which would always find him. He attended St. Paul's Church last Sunday, and chanted because others chanted. He knew he was acting in opposition to the feel ings of many of the parishioners. By Mr. Parry—He did not chant out of a lark, but be cause others did. He was between 15 and 16 years of age, and did not write himself " esquire." By Mr. Ballantine—He went to church from conscien tious motives, and not out of a lark. The Rev. G. R. Portal said.he was the officiating mini ster at St. Paul's last Sunday. He h-Al given no instruc tions in reference to chanting, and if he had found that the great body of the congregation chanted ho should have waited for them. If the congregation chanted generally the choir had instructions from Mr. Liddell to wait fur them and let them have their own way. He (witness) did not oppose chanting as a principle. By Mr. Parry—Mr. Fitzroy's chanting interrupted I , im in the performance of the service. Mr. Westerton's inter ference was necessary, and if he (witness) had been near the churchwarden he should Intve requested him to inter fere. By Mr. Arnold—Ho officiated at St. Paul's three or four weeks previously, and many more persons chanted than on Sunday last. On the former occasion he waited for the chanters. This was the case for the complainant. Mr. Parry contended that no case had been made out, and he did not know whether ho ought not to ask the magistrate to dismiss the summons with the contempt it deserved. It was to bad for a congregation of staid people to be interfered with by a set of miserable boys, conscientious men as they flail themselves, who went to the church just as they would go to a theatre, to kick up a row, thiekiug it a capital thing to set at defiance Mr. Li:Well and the Bishop of London. Mr. Fitzroy evidently went to St. Paul's Church for the deliberate purpose of disturbing the congregation, an offence for which, if it had taken place in any body of Protestant Dissenters, would have subjected him to a heavy pecuniary penalty. He contended that the complainant went to church just as a person went to the shilling gallery of a playhouse, to hiss an actor he did not approve of. The Litany of the Church of England, speaking of it humanly, was the most beautiful coin position that could be conceived, and while the most sacred portions of it were being aidreseed to the Deity, tias brawler screamed out his part of it to the disgust of every one present. The learned counsel animadverted in the strongest terms of severity upon Mr. 'Fitzroy's conduct, regardless of a challenge which he should probably receive from Mr. Fitzroy the next morning. The Hon. and Bev. Robert Liddell said he was the in cumbeet of St. Paul's Church, Knightsbridge. In conse quence of the difference which existed in reference to con ducting the services, the Bishop of London gave him some private advice, which he took. In consequence of this advice, he recommended that the Litany should be "said,' and not " sung," or "intoned." He issued a notice to that effect, and he held that any one who chanted after that would be guilty of a breach of church order. He con sidered that sir: Westerton was quite justified in preventing the interruption of the service list SundaY after Mr. Portal paueed as he did, and locked towards By Mr. Ballietine—He thought that when an incum bent gave an order as to the conduct of tho service—whe ther it should besaid or sung--itought to become the order of the church. There was nothing irreverent in the way in which Mr. Fitzroy and others chanted. Ile directed the choir nut to respond a t a ll if th ey found a large body of the congregation were determined to chant. By Mr. Parry—The service at the district church of St. Baruabas was choral, and Mr. Fitzroy might have gone there with much propriety. Johnson, the beadle, and several other witnesses were called for the purpose of showing that Mr. Westerton spoke quietly to Mr. Fitzroy bcf.re he ordered his re• moval, but none of them were able to state what Mr.Wes terton said. Mr. Beller:tine asked the magistrate to send the case to the sessions. Mr. Arnold said he saw nothing in the case to induce him to do so, and then proceeded to adjudicate upon it. He went very carefully over the evidence which had been d said that although it was not his intenti o n on last Sunday did pr o d uce 'taodiguocient and general question of chanting, he was come pelted to say that the chanting discord, and neohtw desist,areu to i then it was the thus tended to interrupt the service. It was, of the would c n r uml n e t r e t l l i t .c o i s o e , ci and rc if u s t t a h n e c e partys, t h duty offending e duty of the churchwarden to eject him decide upon the legality from the church. He would not ed to him that thislhe was prepared to decide, that it appear of the course adopted by Mr. Fitzroy in chanting, but • , and that his the chu rc h war d en ac t e d according to what he considered the con ec i en ti ous di sc h arge o f his duty conduct, criminally or penally, did not call for punish ment iu that tribunal. He should therefore dismiss the summons. The decision was hailed with loud applause by Mr. Westertou's party, - - KING'S COLLEGE, LONDON, AND THE CIVIL SERVICE. —Four stud ents of this college, viz., Messrs.

I think at this cri tical time we ought not to forget these little incidents." BURNT BANK OF ENGLAND NOTES. —The following, says the Newcastle Guardian, is creditable to the Bank of England :—Messrs.
