At one of the firing points Lieutenant Graham, of the
2nd Wilts, made 48 marks, at the ranges of 800 and 900
yards, and io firing at the 1,000 yards he made the following
score :-3, 3,0, 2,3, 3, 3 ; total, 64. As it all depended
upon the last shot whether a tie would be obtained, the
utmost interest was felt as Mr. Graham was
taking aim, and after the lapse of a minute be
again raised his rifle, and regaining his former
confidence be soon discharged his only remaining shot.
Never since the association was formed was more intense
curiosity felt than with regard to it, and in a moment or
two the signal from the marker's hut indicated a centre,
counting 3, which closed the door against him, and the
prize was declared to have been won by Sergeant Roberts,
of the 12th Shropshire. Amongst those present to witness
the final result of the struggle were Sir Robert and Lady
Peel, wbo made frequent inquiries as to the names of those
who had made the highest scores. The winner afterwards
received the congratulations of Lord Elcho and most of the
members of the council.

In the course of Monday Lord Elcho was shooting at a
pool target, but happening to bit the wrong one, a notice
was posted that he was disqualified fr, m shooting for any
general prize during the present meeting, according to the
rules of the council, but this will not prevent him, we
believe, from shooting in the match between the picked
eight of England aud Scotland tomorrow.
Last night there was a camp meeting, and at eight
o'clock the police band attached to the G division played a
selection of music. Mr. Leice was the bandmuter, and the
other arrangements were under the direction of Mr. In-
spector Bryant, to whom much credit is due for the perfec-
tion to which this band has arrived.

REGISTRATION OF ELECTORS.

On or before the 20th of this month (July) per-
sooty otherwise qualified to vote in cities or boroughs moat,
in order to be registered and vote, pay all the poor* retested
house tax payable from them on the sth of January last,
whether demanded of them before that date or not.
With regard to the pooh rates, it seldom occurs that the
collectors allow wears of thu.o retry to remain due from
the Bth of January to the 20th of July, but the house tar
requires more attention, as will he apparent from the last
that last year in the city of Westminster alone no less than
3,813 pentons' otherwise in every way qualified, were
omitted from the rewister for that city for noncompliance
with the conditions of the low is this respect.
The hamlets: tie demanded nod collected half-yearly
viz., at or after Michaelmas, the collectors demand two
quarters, which are tine and payable respectively on the 20th
of June and the 20th of Septemher previously ; and at or
after Lady-day they deviated the two quarters that ere doe
and payable on the 20th of December and the 20th
of March previously. 'fho pAymoot of than latter two
quarters is not rigorously demanded or enforced until after
the 20th of July, they therefore frequently remain unpaid
nett' after that date ; but if the quarter due December
30th be not paid oo or before the 20th Jul? the person so
oraitthig to pay is Irretrievably disfrauchind for the follow-
frig year, the law oa this subject having been decided on an
appeal to the Court of Common Pleas.
In eases where the payment of the two quarters demanded
would be incenvealent the payment of the one_ quarter,
viz., that du on the 20th of December, will be aufficieot for
the franchise.

THE REPRESENTATION OF THE CITY.

At a meeting of the liberal electors of the City of
London, held yesterday afternoon at the London
Tavern, the names of two gentlemen, Mr. G.
Geschen, the junior partner of a well-known City
firm, and Mr. Mackay, a large shipowner, were 32:::
posed as candidates for the vacant amt.
Goschen was introduced by Mr. Prescott, and Mr.
Mackay by Mr. Anderson. Both gentlemen
addressed the meeting at some length, giving an
outline of their respective views on the more pro-
minent questions of home and foreign policy. Mr.
Goschen said that, although he had not as yet
taken any active part in politics, he had for some
time past contemplated doing so, and that his
political principles, so far from being in any
degree extemporised, were worked out for himself
and matured by previous observation and reflection.
Re professed himself a liberal in the fullest sense of I
the term, and stated that if sent to parliament
he would not be found amongst the waverers, or
half-and-half politicians, but should uniformly
act with the decidedly liberal section of the
house. This declaration was supported by the
assurance that if returned to the house lie
would vote for the ballot, for a large extension
of the suffrage by a reduction of ,the existing
franchise, for the abolition of church rates, and in
general for every measure in favour of civil, reli-
gious, and commercial freedom. In foreign ques-
tions Mr. bkischen expressed his sympathy with
the present government, and his intention of
heartily supporting Lord Russell's judicious and
statesmanlike policy. Mr. Mackay, while professing
himself also a decided liberal, frankly confessed
he was not prepared to go so far as Mr. Gimbel)
and it appeared from his address that his liberalism
was of the stationary rather than of the progressive
type. Both gentlemen earnestly deprecated any
division of the liberal party at the pending elec-
tion, and each expressed his willingness to bow to
the decision of the meeting. On the names of the
' candidates being submitted to the meeting, there
I appeared a very decided majority in favour
of Mr. GOschen ; and after some discussion, in

which Sir F. Goldsmid and Mr. Dskin took Part,
a resolution pledging the electors present to re-
commend Mr. Ooecheu to the liberal constituency
as • fitting candidate, was unanimously carried.
On this result being arrived at, Mr. Mackay at once
withdrew, and volunteered to act on Mr. Geschen's
committee. On the motion of Mr. Hodgson, Go-
vernor of the Bank of England, supported by Mr.
Crawford and Mr. Samuel Morley, a vote of con-
dolence with the family of the late Mr. Western
Wood was also unanimously adopted.

The King of Prussia has refused to receive the
address of the Chamber at the hands of the deputa-
tion chosen for that purpose. This document will
therefore be sent to the Minister of State to
be laid before the King, who will make a written
reply. As to the purport of this reply, it is stated
in a letter from Berlin that the King has expressed
his firm determination to support the ministry.
The reply was agreed upon at a council of ministers
held under the presidency of the King.

Gprer►, May 14.

My dear Oargiolo—l have received the copies of your
pamphlet entitled "The True Origin of Brigandage and the
Means of Destroying it," and I thank you. I shall read
your work with pleasure, although I am persuaded that the
origin of the brigandage is at Rome, the se►t of European
reaction and the residence of crowned brigands. The only
means of destroying them is to expel the whole brood, and
send to the devil both the protector and protected.—
Wholly yours, GARIBALDI.
A communication from Naples, dated the 20th,

says :
Prince Humbert, after attending the inauguration of the
railway from Sea Benedetto del Tronto to Pescara—a trunk
which is to unite the Neapolitan network to the lime of
northern It►ly—made an excursion as far as Chieti, the
chief town of the Abruzzi, where he met with a very warm
reoeption. Although various engagements between the
brigands and the troops have been mentioned, the return of
fine weather has not this year brought such an increase in
brigandage as was previously the ease. Repressive mese
saxes have not, however, been given up, as may be proved
by the decisions lately come to by the provincial commission
charged with the management and distribution in the pro-
visos of lavora of the funds arising from the national sub-
scription against brigandage. That commission has, in foot,
resolved that rewards of from 300 fr. to I,ooofr. shall be
given to whoever shall have arrested, killed, er caused the
discovery of • brigand ; that pensions for life shall be
granted to the relatives of anyone who may fall when
fighting with them ; sod lastly, that rewards shall be given
to such soldiers and meats of the public force as may dis-
tinguish themselves In the repression of brigandage.

A GHOST IN A BELFRY.

The inhabitants of a secluded village of the
Montagne Noire, in the department of the Ands, were
roused from their beds one night last week by the " sound
of the tocsin "—for such is the pompous pluses used by a
local writer to describe the ringing of the single bell of the
small parish church. The idea of a fire first suggested itself
to the minds of the villagers, but as no fire was to be seen
they flocked to the church to see what was the matter. To
their great astonishment, however, the church door was
locked; no voice responded from within to their loud
shouts of inquiry ; and yet the bell continued to ring loudly I
and hurriedly ! The curt": was called up and brought the
church key. With trembling steps and heating hearts the
crowd followed their pastor into the sacred building. They
penetrated into the belfry, and—oh! horror of horrors! .
the bell-rope was violently agitated and pulling the bell by .
itself. The good priest himself was scared at this fearful
phenomenon, and his followers, pale with terror, dropped
down upon their knees and crossed themselves. It was
midnight, the hour when spirits walk abroad. The priest,
armed with his go-upillon, proceeded to exorcise the
demon ; but all the holy water in the church was soon
exhausted, end yet the dreadful bell continued to sound.
At length a peasant, more intrepid than the rest, volun-
teered to climb into the steeple and look at the bell itself.
As he mounted the dark narrow winding ladder which led
to the abode of mystery, the terrified parishioners below
muttered their patei natters with increased rapidity. In •
few moments an unearthly shriek from the devoted men.
senger left no doubt on the minds of the people below that
he bad met with the devil himself. As the unhappy man
approached the bell it did indeed cease to sound, but by the
flickering pale light of his lantern he saw crouching down
close to the clapper • black monstrous hideous form, with
two yellow eyes which glared full upoo him. The poor man
fainted away, and for some minutes au awful silence reigned
in the church. Then by a sudden ►nd simultaneous impulse
several men resolved to see what bad become of their COM.
rade, acid, imparting courage to each other, rushed up the
ladder together. On nearing the bell they found a large poll-
oat, who had got one of his fore feet entangled in the rope,
and who, in his eodeavours to escape, bad been the caws of
all this terrible commotion in the Montagu Noire.

THE CONFLICT IN PRUSSIA.

889.1aN, Mar 19.
The committee appointed to draw up an address
to the Crown has decided upon its form. The
drafts of Herren Virchow and Gneist have been
incorporated, with the addition of the following
passage :—" The ministers have absented them-
selves from the debates of the house upon the
most trivial pretext, and have made their appear-
ance dependent upon a condition calculated only to
raise a fresh point of dispute upon constitutional
right."
The Norddeutsche Zeitung of to-day publishes a
leader upon the present state of the relations
between the throne and the Chamber, which con-
tains'the following passage :—" The reply of his
Majesty to the address about to be presented by
the deputies will, perhaps, first recommend the
house to resume its labours, but above all to
acquaint the government with the reasons which
have induced the house to refuse the declaration
requested by the ministry. Such a course would
appear necessary as the question not only
affects the political situation of the moment, and
the present occupant of the throne, but also the
heir-apparent,E and the future successors to the
crown-

The Neue PreussiSche (Keens) Zeitunq observes :
"We have formerly said that the presentation of
the address must bring prominently forward the
question of the closing of the Chamber. It may be
doubtful, however, in the aspect which affairs have
in the meantime assumed, whether the government
would not do well, with a view to the enlightenment
of the country, to permit the present situation to
continue for a short time longer."

In the foreign stock market the principal fiuo-
tuation was in Greek Bonds, which, after falling to
31, recovered suddenly in the afternoon to 34 to
1, and closed at 32f to 11, being per cent. higher
than yesterday. The coupons, however, have
receded. The general tendency of prices in this
department was downwards, sales predominating:
The shares of the two great financial companies
have again suffered to-day from speculative sales,
those of the International Financial Society closing
at 5 to 51 prem., while those of the General Credit
and Finance Company, after opening at 2f to 3,
closed at 2to 21 prem. Many thousand shares in
the latter undertaking have been both bought and
sold to-day. The applications having now reached
about four times the amount reserved for the
public, the directors have this day decided to close
the list on Thursday evening for London, and on
Friday for the country.

INDIA.

By the arrival of the Bombay mail we bave
advioes from Bombay to April 29, and from Calcutta
to April 20.
It is rumoured (sap the Times of India) that the
Bombay government are about to send reinforce-
ments to China, and that transports are to be
engaged for the purpose immediately.
The government of Bombay had ordered that the
marriage of his Royal Highness the Prince of Walt%
be commemorated on Friday, the lat Hay, throngb.
out the Bombay presidency. A royal salute was to
be fired at sunrise on that day at all military
stations. There waa to be a general holiday, and all
public offices were to be closed. At a large and
influential public meeting of the inhabitants of
Bombay, convened by the sheriff ou the 16th April,
addresses of congratulation to her Most Gracious Ili.
Psty the Queen, and to their Royal Highnesses the
Prince and Princess of Wales, on the occasion of
the Prince's auspicious marriage, were adopted,
and it was farther resolved that there should be a
brilliant illumination and a display of fireworks at
the Presidency town in the evening of the Ist May,
and that a grand fete should be given to the children
of all the day-schools and Sunday-schools in the
town and island of Bombay on the 00CAIDOn.

THE SIEGE OF PUEBLA.

We (Times, second edition) have received the foL
lowing from an eminent firm in the City :
" Letters from Orizaba, dated 25th April last,
bring news from Puebla to the 20th. No fight
had taken place before that town, but the French
were pressing the siege vigorously, and bad sus-
tained no repulse. On the contrary, on the 19th,
they had obtained success at the Carmen Convent,
routing the Mexicans with great loss at the point
of the bayonet.
"The works of the siege had greatly advanced,
and the fall of the city was expected."

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(mom OUR owl 0011111POIDINT.)
PARIS. THOR/WAY EVENING.

The following paragraph, which I translate textually
from this morning's Constitntionael, has a meaning,
perfectly intelligible to the electors, but not perhaps
quite obvious to a casual reader :
. . .

The Prefect of the Seine, in compliance with complaints;
made by • certain number of the inhabitants of the town of
Boulogne, tohielt complaints are supported by M. %waive.
water, member of the Council General of the Seine, has just
revoked the order which prohibited carriages from paring
in the night time through the grand avenue of the Bois
de Boulogne, which is the most direct route from Paris and
Auteuil to Boulogne and St. Cloud.
I call attention to the words in italics. Their
obvious meaning, under existing circumstances, is,
that electors will consult their material interests by
voting for If. Kcenigewater, one of the government
candidates, bemuse he has influence to get
orders of the Prefect of the Seine revoked. I
should mention that the italics are in the Cow-
stitutionnel. The moral ( )of the story meant to
be understood throughout France is that com-
munes in want of bridges, roads, schools, and pub-
lic improvements of all kinds, must vote for govern-
ment candidates if they expect to be listened to.

The proclamation of the seven bishops shows that
they are alive to this system. It results from this
document that in districts where religious feelings
are prevalent, promises of government aid in
church building have been made to induce the
electors to vote against the Sellers, Plichons,
and other ultramontanist deputies, whom M. de
Persigny (very rightly, as I think, if by legitimate
means) has determined to throw out. But the
bishops, the sole object of whale address, shining
clear through a cloud of holy and humble words,
is to get all these men re-elected, tells the con-
stituencies rather to let their parish churches
tumble down than not vote for the temporal power,
which they hold up as the necessary pillar of the
universal church throughout Christendom.

Many people ask who is M. Picard, formerly
mayor of Ivry, the government candidate in the
9th circumscription. To moat he is utterly un-
known—those who do know him describe him as
a nonentity. Some, in despair of a reason, have
fancied that he was chosen because of his being a
namesake of M. E. Picard, one of the " five,"
aid in the hope that he might catch

Mr. PEASE moved that the order be read and discharged,
and that the bill be recommitted to a select 7oramittae to

SIN—At the time when there is so much alarm
about small-poz, and distrust of the protective power of
vaccination, it may be interesting to state the following
instance of its efficacy.
During the Indian mutiny, in the hot season of ISSB, I
was on the Ganges with my regiment, packed together on
a "flat "as dose as sardines la a tin. A case of small-pox
appeared amongst us, and seclusion was out of the question,
or re-vaccination either, so we hod to put our trust in
Providence and Dr. Januar.

Only one man became infected : be died, poor fellow, in
a horrid state, while the original culprit escaped with a
slight attack.
The second cue was treated in an old barrack room full of
other sick, and several times I bad belated cases (sent in by
passing flying detachments), for whom, in those days, there
was no seclusion available.

Had it not been for the immortal Jenner's discovery,
what, under such circurostaoces, would have been the
state and fate of her Majesty's 37th Foot? Thanks to his
glorious legacy, not a man among us took the disease, save
the one unlucky sufferer, and I think inch en erperimentum
truce ought both to inspire • rational confidence among
these who have been really vaccinated, sod to ensure such
regard for dinner's memory as should have eared his statue
from expulsion, as unworthy to stand in the A
