THE SELF-CAPPING RIFLE.

At the close of the meeting la,t night of the Institu-
tion of Civil Engineers, Monsieur N6ron, of Paris, ex-
hibited an ingenious mode of placing detonating caps on
the nipple of a rifle or a musket. The apparatus em—
sisted of a tube containing ,twenty-two caps, placed
parallel with and close beside the barrel, being partially
inserted in the stock, and so• arranged that whilst the
near end was attached by a pin to the hammer, the fur-
ther extremity was free to travel in a slot. Its action
was very simple ; the tube being filled with caps from
a reservoir,
,several of which would occupy but a very
small space, the end cover was turned down. On draw-
ing the hammer to half-cock, the tube was drown for-
ward, until a cap was drawn over the nipp e, and at
full cock the cap was pressed down upon it. After fir-
ing, if any portion of the copper remained attached to
the cap, it was removed by a small picker preceding the
tube, on its being again drawn forward to repeat tha
operation. _ _

It was evident, that by this simple and cheap addition
to any fire-arms much time must be saved in loading,
and a great waste of caps' must be avoided, whilst about
twenty-five per cent. of copper was saved in making the
caps, and they were kept dry in the reservoir, instead of
being exposed to damp, and running the risk of not ex-
ploding, as had occurred frequently in action, on recent
occasions, in the Crimea.

The system was stated to have obtained the approba-
tion of the highest military authorities in France, and
with the characteristic alacrity of the Government of that
c )untry to be already in process of adaptation to the
Mitu6 rifles, and to fire-arms of all kinds for the army ;
it had only within the last few days been brought here
to lay before the British Government, and was submitted
for the inspection of the members of the Institution of
Civil Engineers.

THE MILITIA.

About 400 of the 2d (Liverpool) Royal Lancashire
Militia, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Sir
Thomas Hesketh, Bart., left Liverpool yesterday, for
Edinburgh, where they will replace the 82d in garrison
duty. The remaining portion of the regiment, consist=
ing of about 700 men, will be despatched on Friday.
They would billet at Carlisle last night, and proceed
forward this morning. One troop, commanded by Cap-
tain T. Littledale, has volunteered to go out to the
Crimea. Mr. Littledale is one of the most prominent
merchants of Liverpool, has been once Mayor, and, it
will be remembered, greatly distinguished himself some
years ago by gallantly bearing up to the burning wreck
of the Ocean Monarch, emigrant ship, and saving the
captain and upwards of 30 persons from the terrible fate
which befell their companions.
Lord Massareene and Ferrard has, as Lieutenant-
Colonel of the Royal Antrim Artillery, appointed Messrs.
M‘Gee and Co., of Belfast, vs clothiers to the corps.
• A. great many of the young fellows who joined the
Antrim Rifles have since volunteered into the line. On
Friday 20 of them volunteered, and on Saturday others
followed their example.
F. O'Brien, Esq., one of the members for the King's
County, has been appointed to a, captaincy in the Tip-
perary Militia.

It is expected that the new Bank of England note will
be issued to-morrow or next day for small amounts. Its
appearance, at a hasty glance, is very little different
from that of the old note, although upon examination
its great superiority is very striking, both as regards
clearness of execution and design, and the watermark
of the paper.

ADMIRAL FIAMELIN.

The following is the farewell address of Admiral
Hamelin, on resigning the command of the Black Sea
fleet to Admiral Bruat :
" Officers and Sailors—Being raised to a dignity,
which is partly of your creation, I have received orders
to return to France with all my staff.
" I am happy to leave the squadron in the hands of
an admiral whose experience and intrepidity render him
so worthy of such a command.
" Officers and Sailors—When history shall recount
the campaign of the Black Sea and the Crimea, a page
will be reserved for you worthy of the glorious antece•
dents of our navy.
" The Emperor has listened to several applications
made to him for the reward you have deserved. His

VIE CRIMEAN SPECULATION.

.At the Mansion-House, yesterday, after the transae-
tiou of the ordinary business of the justice room, Alder-
man Wilson, who sat as / ~oettn& tenens for the Lord Mayor,
asked whether Mr. Wardroper, who bad attended on
Saturday, to answer a statement made by Mr. Aldridge,
with reference to the transmission of goods to the Cri-
mea, was present ?

An answer in the negative having been given by the
messenger of the court,

The Alderman desired to be informed whether Hayden,
the detective officer, had made the inquiries which the
first investigation was likely to suggest ?
Haydon said he had been strict in his inquiries, and
that he had received a list of the boxes, parcels, and
packages, of which Mr. Wardroper, according to his
clerk's account, had received notice had been sent to Use
Docks, for the purpose of being shipped for the Crimea.
He had requested to be allowed to look at the letters
referring to the various goods which bad been trans-
mitted, but the clerk said he did not consider himself
authorised to exhibit the letters, without the instruc-
tions of Mr. Parry, the barrister. There were several
parcels, which (as the reporter understood the officer)
were directed by Mr. Wardroper to be returned to the
parties who had sent them.
. Mr. Aldridge said he bad been waited upon, on Tues-
day, by a lady, who represented herself to be the wife of
Mr. Wardroper, and who stated that her husband bad
been in a totally incapacitated and helpless condition
during the last seven years, and that she apprehended
he had fallen into hands from which it would be bard
to release him without damage to himself. He sub-
sequently received a letter from the same lady, in
which it was stated, after a description of the weak.
Bess by which Mr. Wardroper was afflicted, that he
had been made the instrument of other people's designs.
_ .

After some statements which it would. not, in-the
present stage of the investigation, be proper to give
to the public eye,
Haydon handed to the presiding alderman an ad-
vertisement, which was as follows :

" Managing Clerk, salary 250/. —A gentleman of
active business habits required to superintend the cor-
respondence, and other official duties, in a mercantile
office, during the absence of the principal going abroad.
A deposit of 8001. required, which will be amply
guaranteed.' Direct to F. B. W., City News-office,
48, Leadenhall-street."

To the advertisement was annexed a paragraph, to
the following effect :

all requisite accessories, is attached to each corps
d'armee. No positive orders have yet been issued
to organise the fifth (or reserve) squadron to regi-
ments of cavalry, but the necessary instructions

The convalescen'Ls of the Allied Armies ar e
ordered back to the Crimea to resume operations.
There has been another tempest in the Black

Sea, causing some disasters. Two English vessels
suffered damage.

Sir George Brown will return to England for a
time to re-establish his health.

The news is confirmed that the Turks took 600

horses at Eupatoria.

The Russian army of Asia has been recalled

from Redoubt Kale to Erivan.

"In consequence of assassinations committed

on .the allied troops, French patrols have been

organised, and are now on duty. According to

the last news from the Crimea, the Russians
were building a bridge to connect Sebastopol with
the Northern Forts. The French are making a

good road, from Kamiesh to their camp."

The following telegraphic despatches were re-
ceived in Paris yesterday

" VIENNA, JAN. 9.

"M. de Bourqueney and Lord Westmoreland
have seat off couriers to Paris and London, in

order to lave the powers necessary for opening
the confere noes for peace. The Ottoman ambas-
sador was :yesterday invited to be present at these

conferences."

" TURIN, JAN. 9.

"In the Chamber of Deputies to-day the dis-
cussion on the Bill for the Suppression of Convents
was commenced. Reports are still current of a
treaty of alliance being about to be concluded
between Piedmont and France and England.

The rumo urs which had been in circulation of a
Ministerial' ,crisis,crisis are unfounded."

" ATHENS, JAN. 5.

" Admit:Al Barbier de Tinan, and the officers
under his .o:rders, have had the honour to be pre-
sented to their Majesties. The recall of the
Greek Am b assador at Constantinople is talked

of,"

" ROME, JAN. 8.

"The rl •ench army of occupation in Rome
will not be reduced below 3,500 bayonets, in

compliance Ni ith the request of the Popo."

• " A letter from Constantinople, received by the
last mail, co, afirms," says the Constitutionnel, " the
intelligence- that the Russians have abandoned the
ground in ft out of the Quarantine fort, occupied by
a small vill a go. The French soldiers hurried in to
seize on all •they could—vegetables from the gar-
dens, articl,l ,s of furniture, and even the doors and
windows fro: n the cottages. General Bizot had six
windows pli ced aside to serve in General Canro-
bert's dining -room--when erected." "All that,'
says a lotto • from a French officer, " was done
under a shag p fire of musketry, which, however,
only wound*. 1 two men slightly. 1 saw Captain do
Marivault, c .f the navy, carrying away with the
greatest proc aution a window which he protected
with infinite address with his body against the
balls. Near him I saw an artilleryman gathering
a salad in o,z .e of the gardens. A ball knocked out
of his handu what he had collected. Grumbling at
being so trey ted, he again set about his work, and
finished it w ithout further molestation. Such ex-
amples of sal igfroid are by no means rare."

This being the first day of Trinity Term, the Lord
Chancellor received the Judges, Queen's Counsel, and
Sergeants•at-Law at a breakfast this morning. Most of
the Common Law and Equity Judges honoured his lord.
ship with their attendance, and after doing amplejustice
to an elegant dedeuner, they proceeded to Westminster to
open their respective courts. Up to the hour, however,
of our going to press, no case of sufficient public interest
or importance had come before any of them to justify a

THE MILITIA.

About 400 of the 2d (Liverpool) Royal Lancashire
Militia, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Sir
Thomas Fiesketh, BArt., left Liverpool yesterday, for
Edinburgh, where they will replace the 82d in garrison
duty. The remaining portion of the regiment, consist-
ing of about 700 men, will be despatched on Friday.
They would billet at Carlisle ,last night, and proceed
forward this morning. One troop, commanded by Cap-
tain T. Littledale, has volunteered to go out to the
Crimea. Mr. Littledale is one of the most prominent
merchants of Liverpool, has been once Maycr, and, it
will be remembered, greatly distinguished himself some
years ago by gallantly bearing up to the burning wreck
of the Ocean Monarch, emigrant ship, and saving the
captain and upwards of 30 persons from the terrible fate
which befell their companions.

Lord Massareene and Ferrard has, as Lieutenant.
'Colonel of the Royal Antrim Artillery; appointed Messrs.
M'Cree and Co., of Belfast, as clothiers to the corps.
A great many of the young fellows who joined the
Antrim Rifles have since volunteered into the line. On
Friday 20 of them volunteered, and on Saturday others
followed their example.

P. O'Brien, Esq., one of the members for the King's
County, has been appointed to a captaincy in the Tip-
perary Militia.

It is expected that the new Bank of England note will
be issued to-morrow or next day for small amounts. Its
appearance, at a hasty glance, is very little different
from that f the old note, although upon examination
its great superiority is very striking, both as regards
clearness of execution and design, and the watermark
of the paper.

be forwarded via Marseilles. The postage, letters at the
rate of 31. the quarter ounce, and' newspaper's 21. each,
must be paid in advance.

the latter, were obvious. He charged the prosecutor
with having committed foul perjury—black as Erebus—
to screen himself from the unwarrantable liberty he bad
taken in kissing the defendant's wife, which act made
him the first aggressor. Afcer animadverting in strong
terms on the prosecutor, the learned counsel called upon
the jury to repudiate the story of the attack upon him,
as he should show that the defendant only resented the
prosecutor's conduct in kissing his wife.
Lucy Angell, a married woman, residing in Spicer-
street, stated that on the night in question herself and
sister were on their way home, and stopped at the corner
of Brick-lane to purchase some baked potatoes of a man
who stood there with a stall. While they were there
two other females came up to purchase some of the
same articles, and while they were standing there the
prosecutor, addressing them, asked if they were sisters.
They replied that they were, and he then said, " If I
had two such sisters, I should take the liberty of doing
this," and at the same time he put one of his arms
round the neck of one of them and kissed her. His hat
fell off as he was doing so, and the husband of one of
the women, who was standing by (the defendant) seeing
what was done, said to him, "If you take the liberty of
doing that, I shall take the liberty of doing this," and he
kicked the hat. The policeman then seized him and
felled him to the ground, falling with him. The persons
there wished him to let the man go, but he would not,
and she was determined to see the elid of it. On the
following tnornin, she went to the police•court, and told
the prosecutor tat he had used the man shamefully,
when he remarked that she only wanted a glass of gin.
She was not requested to go, but went in consequence of
the manner in which the man had been treated by the
policeman who kissed his wife. She went of her own
good will.
Mrs. Thomas, sister to the last witness, corroborated
this, and said she saw the policeman trip defendant up.
The latter did not strike him at all.

Mrs. Hurley, sister to the prisoner, gave similar evi-
dence, and said the entire fault was on the part of the
policeman in kissing her brother's wife.
Mr. Mellor, in summing up, went minutely and with
great care through the evidence.
The jury retired, and, after a short absence, the fore-
man said the evidence was so conflicting that they had
come to the conclusion to give the defendant the benefit
of the doubt, and therefore they found him not guilty.
- A burst of applause from the strangers in court fol-
lowed this announcement, but silence was soon re-
stored.

Mr. Sleigh applied to the court to commit the prose-
cutor for perjury, and said he had never known a worse
case.

MILITARY.

Orders have, been issued by the Horse Guards for
draughts of the 2d Battalion Ist Royals, 13th Light In-
fantry, and 92d Highlanders to be held in readiness at
the bead-quarters of those depots for immediate embar-
kation, whether drill has been completed or not. They
are to join the service companies, which are to be com-
pleted to eight companies of 100 rank and file each. The
following officers are also to be held in readiness to join
the service companies :—viz., 2d Battalion Ist Royals,
lonian Islands, nine officers ; 13th Light Infantry,
Gibraltar, six officers; 92d Highlanders, Gibraltar, four
officers.

The 811 Regiment (Prince of Wales's Volunteers),
destined for Corfu to relieve the 71st for the Crimea,
left Edinburgh, in divisions, on Monday and Tuesday,
for Liverpool. The first division, commanded by Major
Watson, left at 9.45 a.m. on Monday, for Carlisle, and
the second division, with headquarters and band, left
on Tuesday morning, under the command of Lieutenant-
Colonel Robertson. Each division was to make the
journey in three days,, resting at Carlisle and Pres-
ton. The corps, which goes out 600 strong, will em-
bark at Liverpool on board the South American
screw-ship Baliiana. On their departure from Edin-
burgh each division was accompanied by crowds to the
railway station, and heartily cheered. The 82d leaves
in Edinburgh Castle a skeleton depot of four companies,
which, with the 54th depot from Glasgow, will do gar-
rison duty there. The 2d Militia (Royal Lancashire)
proceeds to Glasgow instead of Edinburgh.
To-day the following drafts will embark from Cork
garrison on board a transport for the Crimea :-39th
Regiment, 173 privates, 6 serjeants, 6 corporals, Major
Tinley, Captain Tinley, Captain Northcote, Lieutenant
Baird, Lieutenant Maunsell, Ensign Newport, Ensign
Murray ; 14th Regiment, 160 men ; and 9th Regiment,
30 men.

Last week Colonel Irwin, assistant quartermaster-
general, proceeded from Kilkenny, Maryborough, Wex-
ford, and Carlow, to take houses as temporary barracks
for such portions of the militia regiments of the Queen's
County, Wexford, and Carlow, as cannot be accommo-
dated in the respective military barracks. The head-
quarters of the Queen's County Militia were changed
from Mountrath to Maryborough. They arrived at the
latter town on Saturday, under the command of Lieut.-
Colonel Dunne, M.P.
