mercy. It was in Charles the Fifth's reign that
standing armies were first organised. The rev, looter*
be/feved that if the chairman juiel lirell in the feudsl
times, and those who no* fintiedendifiled his estates
were his vassals, be would ham siliced-himself at their
head, and lead them wherever his Sovereign would have
sidled upon him. Now he . (the ,Chairman,) had the
pleasure of marching at the head of • sores of riles,
mare congenial to his feelings than it would be at this
head of • troop of Vassals. The Yeovil Rifle Corm,
lie could say, was sewn& to none in the
kingdom, end the rifle force mite second to none in
Europe. It convinced him that the heart of Old
England was still sound, and he believed, judgioyfrom
the hearty responses to the call which preceded the
institution of the volunteer force, that should a fee
ever insult the flag of England or threaten her shore.,
the whole population would at -once arise* one and all,
high and low, rich and poor, to lend their aid in resists
log aggression and preserving irsteetour rights, lows,end
liberties. From John O'Groat's House to Land'a Bad,
and from Norfolk to the extreme west, be was mofident
that every one would rush to the front ko the defence

Once or twice on their way to the station a rads was
made to reseed the prisoners, sod it was only by
using their staffs thot the police reached, the station.

he was glad to find that there were no juvenile offenders
to-the calendar. He had received from the resident
chaplain at Redbill Refonaatorya report, which showed
that there had been 39 bops sent there during the past
year, and *tithes. were going on very well. He had
received torernissidatiens from the seeretaries of the
Exeter and Linopley Stoke Reformatories, and be would
suggest to his brother magistrates Viet they should
gamely order lads to be sent to a reformatory fur a
&rt.sip tiara, without ,epecifying any particular school
to seu them to. He also celled attention to an Act
of Parliament which came into operation on the 20th
of March last; and by which, be said, the whole
1. business of what was called the common charges of
unities would be very materially altered, and suggested
the desirability of bevies a new valuation of the county,
inprder to permit MI 'injustice which the Act would
otheraim create in conserretice of the changes in the
nunther of inhabitants in many parts, since the first
county rate was made.
