THE VOLUNTEER REVIEW AT LOVER.

The Duke of Cambridge has addressed to the
Secretary of State for War a letter, in which he forwards
Major-General M'Cleverty'a report of the Easter volunteer
review, with commendatians of his own. Major-General
M'Cleverty writes :
" I have the agreeable duty to make a most satisfactory
on the general state and efiirieney of this large body
volunteers as regards the whole of the battalions. I
would congratulate them on the great attention paid to
cadence of step, s9uipment, and fixing. Their almost
universal steadiness in marching peat his Royal Highness
the Commander-in-Chief amid not fail to elicit the appro-
bation of all who withered these loyal citizen soldiers
devoting their time and energies voluntarily to
an arduous days duty, and Tieing to a most suc-
cessful degree with her Majrty's troops in
training and steadiness ander arms. Their movements
in the field, which occupied the greater portion of the
time, were such as to deserve high commendation ; in moat
instances the deployments, movements in line and fixing,
wore executed with suitable rapidity and regularity ; it
is therefore most satisfactory that nearly 24,000 of the
volunteer force of &gland conducted their movements
in so efficient a manner. Actual warfare whilst under
fire would soon teach such troops to take advantage of
the configuration and irregularities of ground, and
look to their formations in hue over a more extended
space of country than our limited time would admit of."
The general highly commends the volunteer artillery of
the district.

ceased about a fortnight since, when he appeared in per-
fect health. After htedeath deceased's wife bad told wit-
ness that he had complained of pains in his head, and for
relief he one or two mornings put his head under the
water tap. He said he was suffering horn neuralgia. He
was an exceedingly sober man. Lewis Collins, attendant
at the above-mentioned baths, said that deceased came there
about half-put eight on Monday evening last. He ap-
quite well and sober. He asked witness to show
; rnre the steps to go down to the water. Witness showed
him, when deceased walked down and struck off
the steps. The depth of the water there was
5 feet 4 inches. Witness saw him swimming, and then
walked round to light the lamps. While so engaged wit-
ness looked towards deceased, whom he saw on his face,
apparently attempting to dive. Finding, however, that
such was not the case, 'out that be was evidently drown-
ing, he at once took the hook, and, catching him by the
muscle of the arm, drew him to the side, when he was put
on the platform, and the Sylvester method of resuscitation
resorted to. Deceased vomited, ggaave two or three moans,
and died. By the Coroner : The deceased had not been in
the water more than three minutes. A doctor was sent
for immediately, who attended in about three minutes.
Mr. 0. F. P. Chard, surgeon, deposed to being called to
deceased, and said that those about him, including gentle.
men bathers', were trying the Sylvester method of resusci-
tation. He was, however, convinced that it was not •
death from drowning, but from apoplexy, and he there-
upon attempted, and, after much difficulty, owing to the
stout habit of body of the deceased, succeeded in opening
a vein, but only two or three drops of blood were obtained.
The post mortem examination unmistakably showed that
death was due to serous apoplexy. The jury returned •
verdict of " Natured death from serous apoplexy while in
a bath."
