GUNPOWDER IN EDINBURGH CASTLE.

The Earl of AIRLIE asked the Under-Secretary for
War whether it was the case that 100 tons of gunpowder
were stored in Edinburgh Castle, and if not, what
was the quantity usually kept there. The noble
lord said a very active correspondence had lately
been going on in Scotland relative to the amount
of gunpowder stored in Edinburgh Castle, and one of the
writers stated that in the event of an explosion taking place,
not only would great danger be done to the Castle, but
to the town itself. He did not think there was
the slightest necessity for the storage of so large a quantity
as 100 tons, which was the greatest quantity, he had been
informed, was the amount in store.
Earl DE GREY and RIPON said the noble
earl had been correctly informed as to the
quantity of powder in store at Edinburgh Castle. The
actual amount was 2,700 barrels, which was something over
100 tons ; but the reason for so large a quantity was that
ammunition was issued from the castle to the whole of the
southern districts in Scotland. There had always been a
large quantity of powder stored there, though of late years
there was more on account of the firing by the spread
of the Volunteer movement, The powder was kept
in a bomb-proof magazine. Ho did not think there
was any need for him to say anything about the conse-
quences of an explosion.
The Earl of DALHOUSIE thought there was no neces •
sity for keeping so large a quantity in the place. It could
easily be forwarded as required.
The Earl of AIALMhS BURY referred to the Tower of
London, as he had known a large quantity of crates and
other combustibles being thrown on the quay, and he need
not say the danger of such a calamity as an explosion
should most carefully be avoided.

Earl DE GREY and RIPON said he would inquire
into the matter.

The Earl of HARDWICKE said there need be no fear
about the powder in the magazines, as it was safer there
than anywhere else, They were so constructed as to almost
preclude accident.
• The subject then dropped.
Their lordships then adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—This Evening.
The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock.

SALMON EXPORTATION BILL.

Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY moved the second
reading of the bill, which he said was a supplement to the
act passed last session. By that act exceptions had been
made with respect to certain rivers, but those exceptions
had been evaded, and fish had been taken therefrom to
Holland end other places, and then imported as foreign
salmon.

The Earl of MALMESBURY said the bill would be-
come probably useless, without they prohibited the impor-
tation as well as the exportation of the fish.
Lord STANLEY was afraid there was no way of pre-
venting the fraud complained of by the noble earl.
The Earl of DALHOUSIE said the onus of proving that
the fish sent for sale during the close time had been pro-
perly caught should be thrown on the vendor.

The bill was read a second time.

THE ARMY.

In consequence of the great demand made on the
War-office for properly qualified instructors for
those corps of Volunteer Engineers recently formed,
as well as those in course of formation, the number
of non-commissioned officers of Royal Engineers
specially qualified to fill those positions has been
coneiderably exceeded. Orders have accordingly
been received at the headquarters of the Royal En-
gineer establishment, Chatham, directing a return
to be made of the names and service of those non-
commissioned officers of Royal Engineers who are 1
desirous of becoming candidates for instructors of
corps of Volunteer Engineers, in order that a selec-
tion of those found most fitting to fill that post may
be made by the authorities at the War Department.
The non-commissioned officers so nominated will be
released from ordinary duty at headquarters, and
go through a complete course of sapping, mining,
and the various branches of field fortification, includ-
ing the customary drills, in order that they may
become thoroughly proficient in the several duties
which, as instructors, they will be called upon to
perform.

Col. W. R. Nedham, commanding the Royal
Artillery in the Chatham district, completed the
half-yearly inspection of the Ist division of the
Depot Brigade yesterday, in which he had been
occupied some days. The inspection, which was of
a very searching character, was brought to a close
yesterday by a parade of the entire Ist division of
the Depot Brigade, when the guns on the fortifica-
tions and the other descriptions of artillery used for
instructional purposes were manned,and the officers
and troops tested in their knowledge of the use and
~
ygorking of the heavy Armstrong and other guns,
as well as the numerous appliances for the transport
of heavy ordnance of modern and ancient invention.

An experimental 6-pounder rifled gun, on a new
breech-loading principle, the invention of Mr, par-
sons, C.E., of Blackheath, which had previously
undergone the Government test, was yesterday
fired at the Royal Arsenal butt, Woolwich, in the
presence of the full committee of the Arsenal. The
gun fired 20 rounds in rapid succession, the trial
f-lecuPYing only Bmin. 35sec., including the inter-
vals between each discharge. It is understood that
-a favourable result will be reported to the Secretary
of State for War, under whose direction the gun
was ordered for trial.

MR. HOWARD GLOVER has nearly completed his
new comic opera—libretto as well as music—to be entitled
" Giralda, the Unmarried Wife." The work is to be pro-
duced by the Pyne and Harrison company during the ap-

WESTMINSTER.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY AT CREMORNE.—DESPERATE
RESISTANCE OF THE OFFENDER.—John Baily, a powerful
young man, was placed at the bar charged with an exten-
sive robbery at Cremorne-gardens.
John Mayhew, 319 D, said that at a quarter to four this
morning he was on duty at Cremorne-gardens, and was
passing by a glove shop or stand there, where gloves and
jewellery are sold, when he observed that the hinges of the
door were unfastened from the post, they were unscrewed
and the screws gone. The door had been placed a little on
one side, and on witness pulling it, it opened and he saw
the prisoner in the shop. He inquired what ho was doing
there, when the prisoner replied he had been there to lie
down, but the door was not well secured. Witness told him
he was aware they did not allow hint to lie down there, and
inquired what he had got in his pocket. Prisoner observed,
"It's all light," to which the witness replied, "It is not
all right, and you must go with me to the station." Pri-
soner then struck him a blow on„the face, and, with a knife
in his hand, closed upon witness, when they had a severe
and perilous struggle.
Mr. Arnold—How long did it last?
Witness—Above twenty minutes, during which we were
frequently up and down, and he was repeatedly jobbing at
me with the knife. I fortunately warded off many of the
blows, but he wounded me slightly in two or three places,
but I still kept my hold of his handkerchief, but he made
repeated cuts at it, and the handkerchief coming in two, he
jumped up free and got away, but he was stopped by
another constable,

Mr. Arnold—What was found upon the prisoner ?

Witness—The brooches, bracelets, pins, and other articles
of jewellery I now produce ; they were found in his pocket.
Mr. Arnold—ls he known ?

Witness—He has been employed for six seasons in Cre-
morna Gardens ; he is one of the gasmen, and was there
attending to his duty last night, but had no business what-
ever in the gardens at the time I found him; he had his
shoes off when I found him.

Prisoner said he had been drinking freely, and did no
know what he was about,
The police did not assent to this at all.
The prisoner was remanded till Wednesday.

CIRCASSIA.

The latest news from Circassia is up to the 25th
of Moherrem (25th July).
In the country of the Abazeghs and Chapsoughs,
in the month of June, small detachments were
organised in imitation of the corps of the Polish
Insurrection. These detachments were charged to
b:ockade the garrisons of the Russian forts, and to
annoy them incessantly. Such a system has
already had its effects. Three small forts have been
abandoned by the Russians, and the Circassians
every day kill some of the enemy or carry off the
cattle.

Those of the Abazeghs who, inhabiting a country
more open to invasion, bad been necessitated to
submit to the Russians, were invited by their free
countrymen to repair to a point situated between
Yaghirah and Sokoum Kale, to deliberate on the
affairs of the nation. A great meeting was held.
Three-fourths of the Abazeghs who had submitted
declared they wished to shake off the Russian yoke,
and they took up arms. The remainder were not
of the same mind. This difference of opinion led to
very warm discussion. " What have you gained
by submitting to the Russians?" cried those who had
revolted, to the rest; " Come and fight with us for
the independence of our fatherland." These words
having had no effect on the minority, they came to
blows and blood was shed, ,and those who pre-
ferred servitude to liberty lost a great many men.
Subsequently to this affair the Russians sent re-
inforcements to Sakoum Kale.
The Circassians have also organised several small
detachments of cavalry. Three of these detach-
ments having heard that a Russian General with
150 horsemen had left a fort to repair to another
place, marched to intercept them. A fight ensued,
in which the Circassians were victorious. Almost
all the Russian horsemen were killed or wounded,
cot more than 20 being able to make their escape.
The General was made prisoner.
Great anxiety had been felt about the crop of
cereals on account of the dryness of the season; but
rain having fallen, these fears are now removed.
The crop has turned out so abundant that it would
bo sufficient alone to feed twice the population of
Circassia.

The Russians may expect a troublesome war with
the Cireassians ; and all the friends of liberty must
offer up prayers for the triumph of these courageous
mountaineers.—Le Courrier d'Orient.

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 1 per mille pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.276 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of CI
17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appear that gold is
about 3-10 the per cent. dearer in London than in Paris.
By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 425 per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.66 per £1 sterling.
tandard gold at the English Mint
price is, therefore, about
7-10ths per cent, dearer in London than In Hamburg
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is about 135 to 1356 per cent., and the premium
on gold about 226 per cent. At these prices there is a small
profit on the importation of gold from the United States.
