About 17,000 men are required to complete the
British military establishment. Recruiting goes on at
the rate of 200 men per diem.
Genoa papers state that a mutiny occurred, on the
23rd ult., on board the British vessel Sarah, in that port,
and it was quelled by the aid of the Piedmontese coast-
guard. Two ringleaders were arrested.
A hundred and fifty officers serving in India have
tendered their resignation.; to General Sir Colin Camp-
bell, GOB., so the Mailed Service Gazette says.
A splendid steam frigate, the Forte, was launched at
Deptford, on Saturday, in the presence of many thousand
of spectators. She was christened by Lady Pakington.

REINFORCEMENTS FOR INDIA.—Five thousand men
of all ranks are under orders for India :—for Calcutta,
2,930 men ; for Bombay, 1,130 men ; for Madras, 820
men •, and for Kurachee, 790 men. The reinforcements
are all to embark between the 24th of June and the 2nd
of July.
An arrangement has just been made with the
authorities at Gibraltar by his Excellency the Governor,
by which the departure from that port of the Indian
packets will be much facilitated. It is not generally
known that up to the present time, whenever these
vessels arrived there after gunfire, if only ten minutes
(that is, if they had not previously been seen), they
were not visited that night, the consequence of which
was that they were detained some twelve to fourteen
hours unnecessarily, either on going out or coming
home. This was, of course, very annoying to a large
number of passengers, anxious to get on, and at the
same time inconvenient, and occasionally injurious to
general interests, but it was an old custom, and, there-
fore, to be observed. The new arrangement which has
been made is this :—When the packets are expected to
arrive during the night, the mails will be sent off to
the Government ship Semarang, and be from her
handed to the oftioer in charge of the mails on board the
steamer, and she will thus get away in, say two hours,
instead of having to wait for daylight and be detained,
as before stated, twelve or fourteen hours. The Pars,
on the last occasion, arrived at Gibraltar at 9 30 p.m. on
the 27th, and got away at 2 am, on the 28th ; she
would have been despatched sooner, but this being the
first time of trying it the arrangement was scarcely
completed.

Within the last few days this charming little
village has been favoured with a visit from the lady
of the Rt. Hon. Sydney Herbert. Her ladyship, who

highly delighted with the accommodation provided

spent of the village generally, and especially alluded
to the excellent arrangements at the Convalescent

BONDING ToNAGOO.—A novel method of delivering
bonded goods hem been introduced at the London Cue-
tom-house. Until hut year the Crown was in all easel
the only warehouse-keeper for tobseim and cigars. The
result was • very large and annual expense, end recently
the practice has been abolished, the warehoueing of
tobacco being thrown open to competition under regula-
tion, similar to those in the ease of all other goods.
Previously the great bulk of the kibsooo brought to this
port was warehoused in the London Ducks but on the
altered eyatem coming into operation, a very large pro-
portion was transferred to the Victoria Docks, cheaper
rates being the great inducement. The Victoria Docks,
however, owing to their distance, were often found very
inconvenient when it was necessary to clear tobacco at a
short notice. If an leder was issued at 3, p.m. from WO
Custom-house for the delivery of • quantity it was
scarcely possible to get it away on the same day, and
thus the trade WU put to much trouble. This, how-
ever, is now remedied by thedelivery of the good. on re-
ceipt of an electric telegram. Ti,. dunk company's
office lain Rood-lane, within two or three minutes walk
of the Custom-house, and thence to the dock the wires
are laid down. When an order for the delivery of bonded
goods is issued from the Custom-house it goes direct to
the office in Rood-lane, and immediately on its receipt
there a telegram is despatched to the dock. This tele-
gram is transcribed by the company'a clerk at the dock,
and then handed to the Customs' Registrar, by whom it
Is stamped, signed, and forwarded to the looker, whose
authority it become' for the delivery of the good., the
whole being the work of • very few minutes. There is
no risk to the revenue as the company are responsible
for the duty on all goods rio delivered. Nothing can be
more simple, and the Victoria Docks are now in this
respect, in point of time, on • footing with the London
and St. Ratherine'e. It is believed that much more
could be done in the same way, and that these means
could be advantageously applied to other distant
point..

EVERSHOT.

On Tuesday hat the annual gathering of the Ever.
shot Friendly Society was held in this town. At an
early hour a merry peal rang forth; gingerbread and
toy stalls sprang up in rapid succession, until the
main street presented a scene of unusual bustle and
activity. Soon after ten the Beaminster band arrived
and entertained the members and their friends with
some excellent music until the muster roll was called,
after which the members, preceded by the Band,
walked down the town, and on their return were
joined by the Rev. Duncan, of West Chelborough,
who officiated on this occasion ; the honorary members,
the church choir, and the children attended the
Sunday school, and proceeded to church. There
was a full choral service, the anthem being takes
from the 122nd Psalm. After an excellent discourse
from the Rev. Mr. Duncan, the procession was again
formed and having paraded the town returned
to the Acorn Inn, where a capital dinner was pro-
vided by the host, Mr. Sponge. During the after-
noon the band played in front of the Inn, and soon
after five the members again assembled and pro-
ceeded to Melbury Park, whence they returned to
the green adjoining the Acorn Inn, where dancing
commenced and was kept up with much spirit until
the dews of eve gave warning for departure. We
are happy to say that there was a total absence of
drunkenness and riot which so often are found at
meetings of this description, and which, not only
mar the enjoyment of the members, but bring dis-
credit on societies of a similar nature. It is yeti.
tying to be able to add that the financial affairs of
the society, under the able management of its secre-
tary, Mr. Clemente, continue in a flourishing condi-
tion. There are at present 147 members on the
books, and the capital of the society is £774 les. 2d.

large sum of money was at ones oubsoribed.
EITIUOIDINASY RIOT Is BSITAST.—A telegraphic
message dated Belfast, Sunday, gives an account of
another disgraceful riot there arising out of party
feeling. At 4 o'clock a funeral proussion passed from
the celebrated Pound to Friar's Bush graveyard to inter
the body of a woman named Hackett, deughter,in•law
of one Hackett, chairman of the ex-Gun Club. There
were about 1,000 persons in the prooeulon, including a
number of young women, linked two and two. On
returning, about 6 o'clock, in the same order, the young
women (married green boughs, and as they paned through
Great Victoria-street one of the girls put a branch
which she was carrying into the bee of a person passing,
telling him at the same time to " smell the green:'
This way the signed for a row, and the offenders were
pelted with stones, and some women were knocked down
and beaten. Time denizens of Sandy-row then rushei
out in a body, and the fight became general. One of
the constabulary was beaten severely, his nose having
been broken with a blow of a stone, and his ear split.
The combatants then went up to Pond-street, and ae the
people were going into Dr. Drew's Church they were
attacked and beaten. This drew out the Protestanta of
that locality, and another stoning match followed. A
body of constabulary subsequently arrived at the scene
of hostilities; they, too, were fiercely attacked with
stones, and at length Mr. Tracy, the resident magistrate,
was compelled to read the Riot Act, and directed the
constabulary to fire on the mob. Just as they were
about to obey orders a young man entreated the magis-
trate to give him five minutes, and he would endeavour
to get the crowd to disperse. Through this timely
interference the mob broke up, and hostilities were ter.
minated without any shots being fired. Several of the
constabulary where severely wounded, and of the five
magistrates who were out not one escaped without
receiving blows. Strong patrols of police were placed in
the street during the rest of the night. On Monday
and on Wednesday evenings the rioting was resumed.

THE MINSTER.-At the public meeting on Friday
last, it was resolved to raise the deficit of £750 by
the voluntary contributions of the congregation,
Sabbath after Sabbath, and from seat to seat, at each
of the three services, at which also the charity of
strangers who visit the wing is solicited. It seems
that the contemplated liquidation, by having some
charity lands vested in the churchwardens, was not
entertained, nor do we see how this could have
been proposed, because, although the commissioners
will sanction leases, yet the Act of Parliament
quoted in the requisition also requires that money
thus realized should be re-invested in land, for the
augmentation of the particular charity dealt with.
We look forward so ith interest to the success of the
voluntary principle thus adopted by members of
the Church of England ; other denominations,
through a circuit, raise £lO,OOO and £20,000, whilst
some, perhaps, are bickering about £l,OOO. The
pockets of the Wimborne parishioners have been
well tried already, but there is yet enough surplus
wealth in the town to meet the exigency. Generally
speaking, each parish has enough to do to maintain
its own church, but where splendid specimens of
architecture like Sherborne Abbey and Wimborne
Minster (both of which we learn are in pecuniary
difficulties) are reared, it seems not too much to
make at least a county collection from those who
revere the Church of England and her religion,
though it would be borrowing a leaf from the excel-
lent Wesleyan mode of raising money from circuit
to circuit. The system of collection before adverted
to commenced on Sunday morning last, when
the Rev. Charles Onslow preached specially on the
subject, propounding the course suggested for dis-
charging the church debt, and grounded an ad-
mirably adapted appeal to his congregation upon
xvi. chap. 1 Corinthians, 2nd verse: "Upon the
first day of the week let every one of you lay by him
in store, as God bath prospered him"
Why don't the choristers raise £2O by an evening's
concert? And we wonder if the newly-arrived pro-
prietor at Merly House would throw that magnificent
old mansion and grounds open for the purposes of a
bazaar in aid of the Minster fund?

CHINA.

In a letter, written at Canton on the 13th of March,
we read 3-" For the last two or three weeks Mai have
pused on with great quietneu, with the slight sump-
Eon of the troops having had to stand to their arms on
two oecasione, on amount of large aasemblages of the
Chinn. at night, in the vicinity of the gates, entering
the city, from which it was anticipated that an attack on
some point was intended. However, with the exception
of the firing of a few rifles on the part of our troops
only, and the firing of two or three rockets at the die
tanoe of a mile or two by the Chinese, these demonstra-
tions have pained over peaceably enough, The reason
of these assemblages is attributed to different causes.
Some surmise that they are merely held for what the
Chinese call Chinloss, a religious celebration of nicking
their offerings to their patron saint, a hideously gro-
tesque idol called Joe,, and which is in every house,
They take him richly cooked viands, oonsisting of rout
fowls, small pigs, duoks, rice, &0., and leave them with
him fore certain time, in order that if he require such
creature comforts he may help himself. Others surmise
that the assemblies are collections of what are called
pirate., bodies of men who live In tl.e vicinity of the
towns, and obtain e livelihood by plunder, either in
junks or on land. Those bands are very numerous all
through China, and oonsist of some thousands in each
squad or division. They go in junks and attack vessels,
which they plunder after murdering the crew, or they
oome in force into the towns, and rob the rich men,
merehants, and elumkeepere; then betake themselves to
the hills with their booty. On the Bth of &larch there
we. • field, day to receive some, doubtless, very tumor
-
tut personage from Pekin, Bent by the Emperor either
as successor to Yes, as Governor of Canton, or as Pleni-
potentiary, to arrange matters connected with • treaty
of peue—or his Excellency's commission might com-
prise both important duties. Our artillery fired • salute
to his honour, and our troops were paraded. He is •
stout man, and was carried in a sedan to General Van
Straubensee's habitation, which, by-the-bye, was last
I occupied by Governor Yeh. Of course the guard was
I turned out, and as he passed they presented arms to his
honour. This rather frightened his bearers and body
guard, as they hesitated, and appeared to be ready to
cut and run; but when they saw the guard remain
steady, they iFot re-assured, and proceeded on with their
burden to his destination at the General's quarters.
Our troops are stopping in pagodu and other large
buildings on the walla. However, some are in the town
at different pointa. Each gate is strongly guarded.
Everything suspicions is searched for arms and ammu-
nition. There is said to be a camp of 30,000 or 40,000
rebels about 12 or 15 miles distant, which is very pro.
bible, as we often see numerous lights at night on the
distant hill-sides."

On Tuesday last a public tea meeting was held at

MARK•LANE CORN EXCHANGE.

- -
FRIDAY, MAY N.—Notwithstanding that the supply
of EngILA wheat on sale in to-day's market wu very
inn derate, no disposition wu shown on the part of the
to purchase beyond immediate wants The trade
therefore, ruled very inactive, at about Monday's cur-
rency. Over 14,000 quarter' of foreign wheat have come
fresh to hand. Even the finest samples were very dull,
but no actual change took place in the quotations. We
had a dull inquiry for all kinds of barley, at late rates.
The show of malt wu good. Selected 1111111ples realised
full currencies; but inferior parcels ruled heavy, at
barely late rates. Scarcely any English oats were in
the market; but the supply of foreign was large. Most
kinds sold slowly, on former terms. Beans, peas, and
flour were unaltered in value.

CANADA.

A railway from the British shore of Lake Superior to
the Pude coast at Vancouver'. Island is already
planned, the surveyors by whom this work iA to be
done are now on their way to the projected western
terminus, and the whole scheme has, within a very
short time part, assumed proportions dangerously dell-
nite. As it has been well remarked, the expenditure by
England and Canada of $75,000,000 upon • railway
which is to call • new empire into existence and pour
one of the treat streams of the world's carrying trade
through the American provinces of Great Britain, is less
• dream to day than was the building of 1,000 mile, of
railway by the unaided Canada./ five years ago. Van-
oouver's Island enjoy. in the North Pacific such ad-
vantages of soil and position as ars only paralleled by
those of Cuba in the Caribean and of the British
Islands in the North Atlantic. That vast territory,
which stretches along our Northern frontier from the
lakes to the Pacific, has been long secluded from the
knowledge of mankind by the jealous policy of the
Hudson's Bay Company, but the knell of the TPA
monopoly has been struck, and England has found her-
self mistress of a inapt (talent virgin dominion, where she
had looled only for inhospitable and barren wakes.
The region through which the Pacific railway is to run
proves to be not loss fitted to all the purposes of agri-
culture and of oommeroe than the Canada's themselves.

sales, except for actual requirements, none of a specula-
tive character being entered into. Beans and peas Arm.
Flour same as last week.

At the principal provincial corn markets on Saturday
last, the wheat trade wu without animation, both
farmers and dealers acting on the reserves. The better
qualities of wheat generally supported last week's rates;
but secondary and inferior runs were scareely looked at
and to effect sales decidedly lower rates had to be taken.
Oats, beans, and peas continued Arm in price, but there
was not so mush doing in them articles as there was •
week or two ago.

LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET, MAY 29.

Our wool market ham shown more animation than for

day, are reported to realise better prioes than at their
oomrnenoement a month ago, and about on • par with
those of the February•Marala series.
