TO THE EDITOR OF THE DA.ILY TIMES.
SIR,—As the following particulars of the loss of the
American ship Frederick Gebhard, on the coast of

" DEAR SIRS,--1 suppose you have heard of my sad
misfortune before this, but I give some particulars, as
you may wonder how a ship should be stranded here,
bound for Australia, but `by referring to the chart of the
South Atlantic you will see that. it is no uncommon
circumstance for :ships to fall in with this coast, in par-
ticular'at this season of the year. After leaving Liver-
pool, I .Ibllowed Lieutenant Maury's directions as near
as possible, but. taking the south-east trade rtitids in the
latitude of 6 north, well to the south, we were forced
far to the westward of enr Anticipated track. I was

himself entirely clear of anything. On the night of

of the natives, the tide having fallen, and the sea become
more smooth, they were able to board the ship, and
informed the mate that the ship was on a coral reef that
extended at least ten miles from the shire, on our charts,

however, this does not extend to more than three miles

being no American consul here, I called on the English
consul, and' placed the ship entirely in his hands, not
being able to attend to any duty myself. A survey was
held on board, and the cargo ordered to be discharged,
as the ship's keel was supposed to be broken, wood ends
started fore and aft, and waterways and decks started.
The passengers were landed and embarked. for Pernam-
buco. On the 26th another survey was held, and the
ship condemned. The cargo now on board being mostly
machinery, and of little or no value here, and being
under such great expenses, and feeling assured it would
not pay, we deemed it advisable to work no longer on
the wreck. The cargo that has been saved is in thd
hands of the Custom-house authorities, and will be sold,
but I fear there will be little left after paying expenses.

NOtwitlistandint the- continuance of the beautiful
weather which has prevailed dtiring the last few days,
and the number of excursionists that availed themselves
of the change, the Ili usters of most of the metropolitan
corps have been exceedingly full, and the last War
Office manifesto issued through the lards-lieritenants of
counties announcing district reviews under general
officers of high standing, has been a fresh incentive to
the volunteers to attend and peifect theMselves fpr such
occasions. it is understood that these county reviews,
producing, AS they*ili in each instance, a muster ofseveral
thousand effectives, will not be mere inspections, but that

the principle will be tried of seeing how efficiently the
volunteer forces can acquit themselves when it is deemed
desirable to manoeuvre them in large bodies. This im-
pretsion has induced regular attendance and attention to
the details of drill as well as to the general movements
of the various corps.
The members of the 42nd Lancashire Rifle Volun-
teers, Under the command of Captain Graves, attended
divine service at Childwall yesterday morning.
At A Meeting held last week, in South London, reso-
lutions were carried in favour of early closing on Satur-
day, to facilitate volunteer drill.

Captain Hans Busk, well known for his works on the
rifle, delivered on Wednesday a lecture in the Odd-
fellows' Hall, Keswick, on behalf of the Mechanics'
Institute, on " Rifles .and Rifle. Shooting." Captain
Spedding, of the 3rd Cumberland Rifles, presided; aM
there was a fashionable atteatitL:de. The lecturer
handled his stib3ect si ilfulip, and illustrated it with
diagraliks, Introducing also weapons of an extraordinary
length of range, and so admirably constructed as not to
be liable to explode even in the hands of a novice.
Captain Busk pointed out the desirability of a numerous
and established body of volunteers, describing them not
only as the best guarantee against invasion, but as cer-
tain to render any attempt at invasion hopeless. One
great merit in the lecture was the 6.kiliidaride of leehrlioal
terms, it being Caddied Iri siloh simple but expressive
langda4e as to render it intelligible to,' and to awaken
an interest in the uninitiated. Votes of thanks were
unanimously given to the lecturer and the chairman.
