Wilson issued an order that the prizes shall be all pat
tog-ether rind d.vided. Mat of our men are worth upwards
of 100 rupees.

THE LATE GENERAL NEILL —At a meeting of the Com-
missioners of Supply of the county of Ayr, the chairman,
Colonel J. Ferrier Hamilton, called attention to the
lamented death of one of their number, General Neill,
Sir James Fergusson, of Kilkerran, proposed, and Mr.
James Campbell, of Craigie, seconded the following resolu-
tion, which was unanimously agreed to :—" That the Corn.
missioners of Supply desire to record the regret and sorrow
which they have felt in hearing of the death of the late
General Neill, and their deep sense of the loss the country
at large has sustained in the untimely end of that gallant
general's career, who, during the short period of his service
in Bengal, had contributed so largely, by his energy,
courage, and military skill, to the check which has been
given to the revolt of the native army, and to the brilliant
achievements of the British forces and the loyal portion of
the native army. That the chairman shall convey to the
bereaved widow and mother of General Neill a copy of the
foregoing resolution, in the hope that this expression of
sympathy, combined with the recollection of his glorious
death, and the universal admiration of his great qualities
and services, may afford to them some consolation under
their deplorable calamity."
