THE VOLUNTEER SHAM FIGHT.—We are autho-
rised to state that the northern slope of Bickley-park, which
commands a gosh view of the scene of the volunteer sham
light on Satunlav next, will be thrown open to the public
by Mr. Dent. The entrance will be on the public road from
Bromley to rhiselhuist, about a mile from Southls,rough-
road station on the Mid Kent Railway. The trains will run
through hum London-bridge and Pimlioo stations without
staffing.
TUE LADIES AND Till VOLUNTEER MOVEMENT.
—A day or two since a lady, in deep mourning, welted
ups Mr. John Audio, the treasurer of the Raged's-
r ,
k district for the "North Middlesex" (St. Pancras)
and stated that she had observed the steady and at-
tentive (seediest of the effectives of the above corps on their
pump to and from the Regent's-park barracks fur the pur-
poses of drill, awl she considereil it the duty of every one to
coetribute towards the support of such a noble institution
as that of the Rifle Volunteers. The lady then handed the
treasurer • dousition, with the further instruction that her
name was to be registered as an annual subscriber or hono•
retry member of the " North Middlesex Rifles." On in-
oaring the lady's same and Wilms it turned out that the
benefactress was no other than Lady Franklin, the widow
and relict of the late lamented Sir John Franklin, the
Arctic voyager. Lady Franklin is not the only patriotic
lady of distinction who has contributed to the above corps.
Miss Burdett routts, and one or two other ladies of stand-
ing, have subscribed, and it is rumoured that a ladies com-
mittee is steed, to be formed for the purpose of presenting
the corps with sums embroidered flags or some other tokens
of respect and ioludistioo. Another remarkable instenne—
am showing the popularity of the movement in the district—
ie the following. A young lady waited also upon Mr. Am,
tie, at US residence, 2e, Gloucester-red, and left in a let-
ter, be being from home at the time, the snm if lf. Ile lid.,
the letter, which was dated " Vktoria-whad, Camden-
town," slating that it was the proceeds of a subscription of
pence need up by children of the neighbourhood, in aid of
the objects of the St. Nacres (North Middlesex) Rifle
Volunteers. These examples speak volumes as to public
feeling, aid are redly worthy of emulation.
THE GREAT NATIONAL Ram SHOW AT THE

wham to all this is added the advantage that such a show
meter from being held in a build* so suited foe the de-
i Ow of Swam it canuot tail to be Way ottsadivo.

The united judges, having heard these bands, retired
to consider their opinion, and, after a deliberation of
about an hour, they pronounced the following de-
cision :—First prize, consisting of 40f. in money, toge-
ther with • splendid cup for the bandmaster, and
a magnificent Champion centre bass in E fiat, value
:15 guineas presented by Mr. H. Distin, to the Black-
dyke Mills band. This is a private band, maintained, we
understand, at the expense of Messrs. J. Foster and Sons.
Second prise, 25/. to the Saltaire band, also a private
band. Thirst prize, 15/., to the Cyfarthfa (Welsh) band,
maintained by Messrs. Crawahay, the large nor:masters.
Fourth prize, 10/., to the Darlington Sax Horn band. Fifth
prise, U., to the Dewsbury band. At three o'clock
all the bands assembled in the Handel orchestra,
and performed the following pieces : Rule Britan-
nia; the Hallelujah Chorus, from Handel ; Wedding March,
Idendelsaohn ; Haysin's chorus, " Heavens are tell.
'itlg ;•'-end "God save the Queen." The united bands
wereconducted by Mr. Enderby Jackson, of Hull, to whose
activity and skill the success of the entire proceeding as •
musical display is mainly to be attributed. As has been
already observed, there was a very fair attendance on the
part of the public, but not to the extent which might have
been supposed on so novel an omasion. The coldness of the
day and its threatening aspect no doubt kept many away
who would otherwise have been present. As the contest,
however, is to be continued this day, and the euecessful
bonds (with the exception of the Saltaire) are entitled to
contend fur the asklitional prizes, and as it is moreover to
be a shilling day, greater numbers will avail themselves of
the opportunity to be present at so interesting and so ori-
ginel • competition.

ROYAL ARRIMILTURAL SOCIETY.
. • .
. rANTERBUItY, TUDIDAT.
The proceed, of the ogtrance fen to the show yard
vesterday have astonished enaiaj of the sanguine promoters
of this year's meeting. The entire sum taken at the doors
(notwithstandipg that4a-lkl. was charged for admission to
the grenade, and • wool fee of ss. for entrance to the
cattle depeetnient) only amounted to 2151., while at War-
wick, s.r, the find day's receipts exceeded 1,4001.
Tirday. toyer, there was a fair attendance, embracing
most of th leading families of the county, and visitors from
all parts of England. One uniform char,,,e of now
admits to every part of the exhibition. Independently of
any further awards, but for the purpose of displaying the
powers of steam-ploughing, and bringing than prominently
before the public to-day, some trials again took place of
implements. The grand ploughing . match. however, in
which the attention of the entire . county of Kent is just
now concentrated, is the leading topic of conversation, even
in the cattle-yard. The field on which this local wilte d. is
to take place to-morrow (Wednealay) is a very large piece
of tableland on the top of a hill that has beau mowed this
year. It is • very old sour swan! that has not been well
farmed or ploughed for very many years past. This will
prove a very severe test for the ploughs.

daily from any quarter of the metropolis. There were 46

other aymotie disease. Of 33 from scarlatina, 4 occurred in
St. Clement Danes, sad 3 in Hampton'. Twelve death.

&Welly choked by food. Two children were fatally scalded;

BRUTAL MURDZR.—BARNARD CAlffL/L MONDAY
NtosT.- -This quiet South Durham market town has been
kept in the wildcat excitement all day, by the alarm con-
sequent upon • brutal murder committed here last night,
and the flight of the murderer, Thomas Dixon, • sawyer,
was employed on the South Durham LRMIAbe Unica
Railway works, and lived with a woman Lamed Mary Ann
Wilson, reputed to be has wife, in a ley neighbourhood,
called Galante, His niece lived with them. Saturday was
the "pay " on the line, and after receiving his wages Dixon
and the woman Wilson were chinking all night. On
returning to their dwelling on Sunday morning Wilson
quarrelled with the niece about household matters,
and Dixon afterwards left the house. Upon re-
turning in the afternoon, and still finding them
quarrelling, he caught up a large poker, and said bloat he
would aeon settle it. He felled Wilson to the grafted with
this deadly bludgeon, and then kicked her. The niece ran
for help, and upon returning with some neighbours, Dixon
was observed flying from the town. They found the un-
fortunate woman Wilson lying in a pool of blood quite dead,
and fearfully beaten and injured about the head. The
police, upon learning of the murder, scoured the distriot,
but were not able to capture Dixon that eight. He was
seen this morning to approach the town, but upon bei
uoticed, he fled to the hills again. Intelligence has just
reached here that he has been apprehended to-night by the
Greta-bridge policeman at his mother's house in the village
of Itrigual. Tire inquest on the body of the unfortunate
woman is being held to-night.
FATAL BLAST FURNACE EXPLOSION. —A terrific
explosion happened on Sunday afternoon at one of the
blast furnaces of Bilaton, near Wolverhampton, belonging
to the Messrs. Hickman. The explosion was occasioned
by an escape amongst this molten metal of cold water from
the water chamber of onset the terrines. The keeper of
the furnaces hail delayed "tapping" until the metal boiled
up to a level with the taryeres, when the water flowing
out among the fluid metal there was such a rapid genera-
tion of steam that nearly the whole five tons of mitten
iron was drives oat at the tapping place. Close against the
tapping place Patclek Dillon, aged about 30, ad 4.6111.11
