THE ARMY.

The spring drills at Aldershott have been pro-
gressing most satisfactorily, owing to the favour-
able weather during the past week. The inspection
of brigades by their brigadiers will commence early
in May, and the review season about the middle of
the same month.

It is anticipated that the Ist battalion sth Fusi-
liers, which, under Lieut.-Col. W. C. Master, C. 8.,
now forms a portion of the Ist brigade, will shortly
quit the South Camp, Aldershott, and that their
place will be supplied by the first detachment of the
73d Regiment, which is under orders to arrive at
Aldershott on the 24th instant, from Devonport.
The second detachment of the same regiment will
probably arrive about the 28th inst.
The C Battery Royal Horse Artillery, under the
command of Brevet-Major Hay, proceeded from
Aldershot to Chertsey on Wednesday last, where
they met a party from Woolwich, and received from
them a battery of 40-pounder Armstrong guns,
with which on the following day they returned to
the permanent barracks at Aldershot. This makes
a park of 24 guns of this heavy ordnance at present
at Aldershot, with full complement of ammunition
waggons, store carts, forges, &c.

and Scotland to Ireland.
The three last. mentioned bills were introduced and read

senting body, like Mr. J. R. Mills and Sir Morton Peto,
voted against it. As a rule, Scotch members were in the
Opposition. Mr. Ellice, ken, who represents Coventry,
voted for the bill; but Mr. Ellice, jun., who represents St.
Andrew's, voted against it. Mr, J. C. Ewart, who repre-

AQUATICS.

GREAT INTERNATIONAL BOAT RACE
FOR £4OO.

The fact of a match having been made a few days since
between Robert Chambers, of Newcastle (who on Tuesday
last won the championship of the Thames for the third
time), and Richard Green, the champion of Australia, for
the championship of the world and £4OO, is already excit-
ing much interest in aquatic circles, it being well known
that, while the northern hero is a most extraordinary
sculler, the Australian champion has vanquished a number
of exceedingly good men, including Englishmen, and is a
man whose strength of frame eminently qualifies him to
shine as a great sculler. Last evening having been fixed
upon as the period for making the first deposit of £5O a
side, there was a great gathering of the patrons of aquatics,
and others connected with the art at Mr. Salter's, the
Feathers Tavern, Wandsworth. Charles Westhall, the
celebrated pedestrian, was in the chair, and at the appointed
hour Mr. Salter staked £53 on behalf of the north country-
man; Henry Kelly, the ex-champion, with whom Green
has been stopping ever since his arrival in this country,
putting down the money for the Australian, At this early
stage of this race no money has, of course, been laid out,
but the Australian party are asking 2 and 3to 1 against
their man.

The residence of M. D-, ex-director of the Re-
gistration-office, in the Rue Sylvabelle, Marseilles,
was the scene of a fearful tragedy on Friday last. Two
men, named Gisclar and Galy, who had been for some time
in the service of M. D-- as domestics, quarrelled a week
or two since, and were on such ill terms afterwards that
M. El- found it necessary to discharge Gisclar, five or
six days back. On Friday morning Gisclar went to M.
D-'s, and, under some pretext, entered his room along
with Galy, when the latter went to assist his master in

INDIA-SIAM,

In reply to Sir J. HAY,

Sir C. WOOD said there was no objection on the part
of the Secretary to the Admiralty, the Secretary of State
for India, and the Under Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs, to lay all the available correspondence on the
table of the house.
BURIAL OF SIR J. OUTRAM.
Mr. P. WYNDHAM asked the Secretary of State for
India if it was true that the Indian Government intended
to defray the expenses of Sir James Outram's funeral ; and
if the sergeants of the 78th Highlanders, who volunteered
to attend at their own cost from Folkestone, and did so,
would not have their expenses allowed to them by the Go-
vernment ?

Sir C. WOOD replied that it was only a fitting tribute
to the memory of Sir James Outram, one of the bravest and
most gallant officers connected with any of the public ser-
vices, that the cost of his funeral should be defrayed out
of the public purse. (Hear, hear.) The attendance of the
sergeants of the 78th Highlanders was perfectly
voluntary and spontaneous; they desired to testify
their respect to their late commander by being
permitted to carry him to the grave, and
did so at their own Avr.,...; bwt tho CororunicuE consi-
dered that they should be reimbursed for their outlay, and
it had been refunded to them. (Hear.)

CONTAGIOUS DISEASES IN CATTLE AND
SHEEP.

Mr. GRIFFITH asked the Vice-President of the Privy
Council whether he had any objection to lay upon the table
of the house the report of the Commissioner sent by Go-
vernment in the course of last autumn to the Continent,
to inquire into the existence of sheep and cattle contagious
or infectious diseases in foreign countries, and into the
liability of their introduction into this count', ?
Mr. BRUCE replied that the report, which was a very
long one, had been delivered to his department, and was
now under its consideration. It would be shortly printed
to the house in the form of an appendix to the report of
the medical officers.

THETFORD ELECTION.

The poll opened y.sterdoy morning at S o'clock,
but could hardly be said tOproceed briskly, as t here
were only about 200 electors whose votes could by
any possibility be recorded. Mr. Harvey addressed
a meeting of his supporters on Monday night, aid
appeared to be to a great extent what he professes
to be, viz, the popular candidate in opposition to
the combined Grafton and Baring interests. A con-
tested olebtion has not taken place in Thetford since
1841, when Sir James Flower appeared in opposi-
tion to the interest which Mr. Harvey now sought
to assail, being returned by a majority of 1 ; and
probably for the 22 intervening years the ordinarily
quiet streets of the borough did not present so ani-
mated. a spectacle as they did yesterday. Even as
it was, however, the popular effervescence was of a
very mild description. The first four hours' polling
proceeded as follows:

At the close of the poll (4 o'clock) the numbers

At half-past four the Mayor (Mr. Bidwell) an-
nounced the result as above, and declared Lord
Frederick Fi,zroy duly elected. Lord Frederick
expressed his acknowledgments, and observed that
after a contest running up to twelve votes, he hoped

for his opponent, he still felt that he was perhaps
the real representative of the majority of the inha-
bitants of the borough. (Cheers, and cries of "No,
no.") At the close of a few further observations,
the hon. gent!eman'publicly shook hands with Lord
Frederick Fitzroy, and the proceedings then closed
with a vote of thanks to the Mayor for the impar-
tiality with which he had conducted the business of

'ostiveness, as a family aperient medicine, and as a purifier
of the blood, they are truly excellent ; mild in their opera-

RAILWAY BILLS.

Yesterday, after hearing Mr. Wordsworth, Q.C.,
on the case of the Carmarthen and Cardigan for
their new mineral lines, the committee, of which
Lord Egerton is chairman, decided that it was not
expedient to proceed with the bill, which is conse-
quently lost. The case for the promoters of the
Dare Valley was concluded in Lord Monteagle's
committee, and t hat of tne Vale of Neath opened by
Mr. Clarke, in opposition, the principal witness
examined being Mr. Bruce, M.P. In the case of
the Blackburn, Chorley, and Wigan, Mr. Hawk-
shaw, C.E., and Mr. Smithers gave evidence of the
necessity of extended railway communication in
that district. In the House of Commons committee
the ease of the Barnsley Coal Railway was opened
by Mr. Burke, Q.C., and in another committee the
proposed extensions and deviations of the Montrose
and Bervie Railway were opened by Mr. Sergeant
Bellasis, Q C.

DUEL WITII SWORDS.---A hostile meeting with
swords took place on Monday, at Auteuil, between M.
of the Diogene, and M. Lafont, of the Figaro. The
duel, which arose from a trifling misunderstanding, termi-
nated without the effusion of blood.—Galignast.

The Charwarz publishes a woodcut representing
a number of officials in a grand costume each armed with
a pen and having suspended from his shoulder a portfolio
inscribed " Diplomatic notes." Evesy one is seated on a
tortoise, and in the distance is seen Poland in the greatest
commotion. Underneath the whole is written, " Diplo-
matists hurrying off to the aid of Poland."
The address of congratulation to the Prince and
Princess of Wales voted by the Corporation of Lon.
don, on the occasion of their Royal Highness's marriage,
was presented this day by the Lord Mayor, Aldermen,
Sheriffs, and a number of the leading members of the Coin
mon Council at MarL. orough House. The civic procession
was headed by the City Marshall, and consisted of upwards
of 30 carriages, the foremost of those conveying the Lord
Mayor and the Sheriffs.

SOUTH WALES.—It is gratifying to record that
the agricultural prospects of the district are more
encouraging than has been the case for many years. The
mildness of the winter and the favourable weather which
has prevailed since the commencement of the spring quar-
ter have materially aided vegetation, and nearly every de-
scription of farming produce is in a more advanced state
than is usual at thts time of the year. The hundreds of
kitchen gardens in the mining districts look equally as fa•
vourable, and it is expected that if the weather continues
moderately propitious the result will be a reduction in
many articles of consumption,

MARRIAGES, Ice., (IRELAND) BILL.
The house went into committee on this bill.
On clause 2,
Mr. BUTT explained that it was a mistake to say that
the law of marriage in Ireland was the same as in England.
The only provision Lgainst clandestine marriages was that
persons presenting themselves to be married before the re-
gistrar should state the denomination to which they be-
longed, and that the registrar should despatch per post an
intimation to that effect to their pastor. This was not the
case in England, for a notice of the proposed marriage was
hung up in the registrar's office for 21 days. He advised
the hon. baronet (Sir E. Grogan) to adopt
_the English
clause. Here any ten persons calling themselves a religious
body, though they might be an Ags.pemone, could under
this get a license and celebrate marriage among their
members.

Sir 11. CAIRNS defended the clauses, saying that they
were not susceptible of the interpretation put upon them
by the hm, and learned member.
After some discussion, in which Mr. DavyFon, Mr.
M‘Donogh, Mr. Longfield, and Mr. Butt took part,
Sir E. GROGAN expressed his desire to amend the
bill to any reasonable extent that might be required.
After a f.w words from Sir R. Peel, Sir H. Cairns, and
Mr. Whiteside, some verbal amendments were added in
clauses up to 6, on the motion of Sir E. GROGAN.
Sir E GROGAN proposed in clause 7, line 30, to leave
out from the commencement to "registrar," in line 35, in-
clusive, and insert, " the presence of the registrar shall not
be necessary at any marriage celebrated under the provi-
sions of this act, in any house of worship registered or cer-
tified under the said recited act."
Mr, BUTT opposed the alteration, and suggested that
the words "ordained minister" ought to be omitted ; this
would lead to much confusion.

Sir E. GROGAN explained that the use of the word
" ordained" had been urged upon him by ministers of Dis-
senting bodies in Ireland.

Mr. BUTT objected to the validity of marriages and the
legitimacy of children being left open to doubt to meet the
jealcusies of Dissenting clergymen, who were anxious, no
doubt, to have their ordination according to their own ideas
recognised in an Act cf Parliament, and which might sub-
sequently turn out to be no proper ordination at all.
The word " ordained" was struck out of the clause.
Clauses 11 and 12 were omitted.
The other clauses, with some verbal amendments, were
agreed to,
The house resumed.
RECORD OFFICE.

On the motion of C lonel WHITE, an address for copy
of a letter from the Master of the Rolls to the Secretary of
State for the Home Department, with reference to the
alleged abstraction from the Record Office of certain State
papers, was agreed to.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and
the house adjourned.

SOCIE rY OF FEMALE ARTISTS.

Among the crowd of exhibitions that pr,ss on our
notice in these spring days the CL.iie.-3/ of th€
Fougle Artists is by no rne,ins unworthy of a visit.
It is a visible and practical proof of the increasing
attention that has of late sears been paid to thi-
development of feminine eapubilities, and also o'
he happy results of the increased facilities offerer.
for the cultivation of womanly talent. The fai,
exhibitors stave good reason to fool proud of their
collection, and the walls of their little gallery afford
sufficient answer to the depreciators of feminine

Sir Boyle Roche's Blunders.

Many of these are happily preserved. " Sir, I would give
up half—nay, the whole of the constitution, to preserve the
remainder." This, however, was Parlimentary. Hearing
that Admiral Howe was in quest of the Frenoh,he remarked
somewhat pleasantly that the admiral would "sweep the
French fleet off the face of the earth." By-and •by came
dangerous times of disaffection, and honest men's lives were
insecure. Sir Boyle writes from the country to a friend in
the capital this sad view of his position :—" You may
judge," he says, "of our state, when I tell you that I write
this with a sword in one hand and a pistol in the other."
On another occasion, when the famous letters to the Public
Advertiser were attracting universal attention, Sir Boyle
was heard to complain bitterly of the attacks " of a certain
anonymous writer, called Junius." He it was who re-
counted that marvellous performance in gymnastics, when,
in a tumult of loyalty, he "stood prostrate at the feet of his
sovereign." He it was who denounced in withering language
the apostate politician, who " turned his back upon him-
self." He it was who introduced to public notice the ingenious
yet partially confused metaphor of the rat. " Sir," he said,
addressing the Speaker of the Irish House, " I smell a rat
I see him floating in the air—but mark me, I shall yet nip
him in the bud," There was the famous speech which
confounded generations. " I don't see, Mr. Speaker, why
we should put ourselves out of the way to serve pow erity.
What has ever posterity done for us?" He was a little discon-
certed by the burst of laughter that followed, and proceeded
to explain his meaning. "By posterity, sir, Ido not mean
our ancestors, but those who are to come immediately
after them." His invitation to the gentleman on his
travels was hospitable and well meant—but equivocal.
"I hope my lord, if ever you come within a mile of my house,
you'll stay there all night." He it was who stood for the
proper dimensions of the wine-bottle, and proposed to Parlia-
ment that it should be made compulsory that " every quart
bottle should contain a quart." Very pleasant, and yet per-
fectly intelligible was his meaning—though it unhappily
took the fatal bovine shape—was his rebuke to the shoe
maker when getting shoes for his gouty limbs—" I told
you to make one larger than the other, and instead of that,
you have made one smaller than the other ; the very oppo-
site,—.Dickens's " All the Year Round."

THE MURDER IN ST. GILES'S

The p.:rea'est excitement was occasioned this morning in
the neighb .urhood of St. Giles's, by the report that a man
had given himself up as the murderer of Emma Jackson.
The man in question last night called at the police•.
station at Hoxton, and having said he wished to give him-
self up as the murderer of Emma Jackson, he was at once
conveyed to the George-street station, St Giles's, and with
the least delay possible some of the witneseses examined at
the coroner's inquest were called in to identity the prisoner
as the man who entered the house with the unfortunate
woman. About hall-past three he was conveyed to Bow-
street Police-court in a cab, and as the vehicle approached
the entrance of the court, the immense crowd which had
collected in front rushed to meet it, all anxious to catch a
glimpse of the prisoner.
