Keyham-yard, represented the Admiralty, and Mr.
R. Hodgson, the contractors. She is fitted with a
Griffiths' screw of 16ft. diameter, and 21ft. pitch.
After running six times over the measured mile
with full power, a mean speed of 12.24 knots was
produced; mean revolutions, 66 per minute, The
Rattlesnake is masted and rigged complete, and
draws 16ft. 4in. forward, and 19ft. Gin. aft. When
tried at the measured mile, Dec. 21, 1861, an ave-
rage of six runs produced a mean speed of 13.023
knots. She then drew 13ft. 2in. forward and 17ft.
aft.

BLEC2RIC TABGhT 281

An experiment of a very interesting character to
volunteers was yesterday made at the range of the
St. George's Rifles, at Wormwood Scrubs, and a
number of gentlemen of rank and position connected
with volunteer regiments were present—among
them, Lord Eicho, M.P., W. Wells, Esq., Mr.
Evans, M.P. ; Col. Wood, Paddington Rifles; Capt.
Fenton, West Middlesex ; Major Ives, St. George's;
Captain Pugh and Lieutenant Humphreys. The
Metropolitan Rifle Range Company having adopted
the targets of Messrs. S. C. Hemmings and Co., who
have bought the patent of M. Chevalier, com-
menced a trial of an electric target, at half-past
one o'clock in the afternoon. The principle of
the patent is as follows :—The target is divided
into ten portions—bull's-eye, centre, left, right,
upper, lower, upper left, upper right, lower left,
and lower right. As a shot strikes any one of
these divisions a ball at the back is driven away
with some force, and by its percussion completes
the electric circuit, the needle on the indicator at
the firing point making a notation corresponding to
the impingement of the shot. Twenty-eight shots
were fired, at the 150 yards range, and all of these
were exactly indicated with one exception, the
failure of which was owing to a break in one of the
wires, which were all much too small to stand their
work. Removing to 400 yards, other 28 shots were
fired, and all the hits out of this number were ex-
actly recorded on the indicator. Considering the
disadvantages under which the trial was conducted
the experiment must be regarded as eminently suc-
cessful. Doubtless when the target is properly and
permanently fixed, and the indicator is not liable
to accident and disturbance by being shifted from
place to place in a truck, the invention will show
up better than it has done. As it is, however, we
have seen enough to convince us that in the inven-
tion there are the germs of a complete revolution
in the system of marking. Ere long we shall be
able to get rid of the expense now incurred by pay-
ing a staff of markers, since the wages of a marker
for one year would buy a machine, which will last
for many years. More than this, by a different
arrangement of the sections or divisions of the tar-
get the marking will come to be more exact, and
this is a desideratum which the council of the
National Rifle Association will do much to bring
about, if, as appears probable, they will at the next
Wimbledon meeting adopt a new arrangement in
marking for the all-comers prizes. We must con-
gratulate Mr. Hemming and the managers of the
Metropolitan Rifle-range Company upon yesterday's
success, which, although but qualified, affords a
guarantee for the ultimate triumph of the principle.
We trust that a " fixed" trial may soon be made,
when we shall be glad to chronicle the results, and
all the more readily if, as we expect, they should
turn out to place the success of electric targets as
opposed to individual marking beyond a question.
It is clear that, when once arranged, wires can have
no favourites, and they do not become sleepy or
lazy, as volunteer experience shows that markers
have an unpleasant habit of doing now and then.

THE CASE all THE OFFICERS OF THE
INDIAN ARMY.

Under the old furlough regulations an officer was
permitted to go to Europe for three, or even five
years, without prejudic® to his rank in the service,
the promotion to the superior grades not being
affected by absence. The only penalty was loss of
service for retiring pensions if the leave exceeded
the regulated period, which (under the new furlough
regulations) was reduced to two years in 20, or
three in 25 years of actual service. By her Majes-
ty's warrant, dated the 13th of January, 1860, the
new rank of surgeon-major was conferred upon
officers of the Indian army after a period of 20
years' service, and this was reckoned from date
of commission by the Indian Government, and a
large number of promotions made. Subsequently,
however, an order was received from the Secretary
of State for India, and published by the Governor-
General and Viceroy, on the 26th December, 1860,
ruling that in future no time passed out of India
will be allowed to qualify for the rank of surgeon-
major, beyond the proportion of furlough which is
now or may be allowed to reckon as service for
retiring pension. In consequence of this order
being made retrospective from the date of its re-
ceipt in India, a new system of promotion was sud-
denly introduced into the Indian medical service,
and several officers who were entitled to promotion
were set aside, and the juniors, who had not suf-
fered from ill-health, and required a lengthened
absence on medical certificate, were promoted in their
stead. Several memorials have been forwarded to
the Secretary of State with the strong support of
the heads of the department at the various pre-
sidencies, but without avail. The supercession is
still being carried on, and old officers of upwards
of 20 years' service have now the anomalous posi-
tion of retrograding in the service, and in some in-
stances (that of Dr. Shaw, and others of the Bombay
medical service) a surgeon of upwards of eight years'
standing is superseded by officers who have only held
that rank for a few months in the Madras presidency.
In this way the seniority principle, which was one
of the most cherished privileges of the Indian ser-
vice, has been entirely set aside, and the position to
which officers had attained by many weary years of
toil in a hostile climate has been summarily taken
from them. All officers of her Majesty's British
service attain the rank of surgeon-major after 20
years' service from date of commission, and thus their
less fortunate brethren of the Indian army must, as
a general rule, be superseded by them. Another
grievance which is keenly felt is that, while some
old officers are thus being deprived of their proper
position in the service, others have been promoted
(as Drs. Carnegy, Glasse, and Deas, of the Bombay
service) who have been on leave for ten, eight, and
six years, and thus the whole service is thrown into
confusion, and a general feeling of distrust exists as
to what may yet be in store. The late Lord Dal-
housie, Sir James Outram, and other distinguished
statesmen have borne testimony to the high deserts
of the Indian medical service, and it is an unwise
policy which has created the universal feeling of
discontent which now prevails among this valuable
class of her Majesty's servants.

DUBLIN, Friday Morning.---The Government
have just made two legal appointments. Mr. Johnson has
been removed from the Chairmanship of the county of
Longford to that of the West Riding of the county of Cork,
and Mr. Loftus Bland has been appointed to the Chairman-
ship of Longford. Mr. Drummond died yesterday morning
at his residence in this city, aged 82. He has left the sum
of £20,000 to endow a school for the orphan daughters of
soldiers. He will be interred on Monday next, the coffin
to be borne by soldiers, and the boys of the Royal Hiber-
nian School attending.

BOOKSELLERS' PROVIDENT INSTITUTION.-- Yes-
terday the annual meeting of the members of this institu-
tion was held at No. 56, Old Bailey—Mr. Edmund Hodg-
son in the chair. It appeared from the statement of ac-
counts and report that the income of the past year amounted
to—From donations and subscriptions, £530 4s; interest
from Commissioners for Reduction of National Debt, £875
8s 10d; total, £1,405 12s 10d. The disbursements—ln
rel

lief, £1,150 7s 4d ; other expenses, £97 5s 3d ; total
£1,247 12s 7d. Balance at bankers' and committee, £509
12s Bd. Invested with Commissioners of National Debt,
£23,009 17a 4d. The total amount distributed in relief
since the formation of the institution was £11,780 12s sd—
the total amount raised for the Institution and Retreat
being upwards of £50,000. The report stated the satisfac-
tory progress of the institution, the value and influence of
which have long since been acknowledged in the trade.
The institution has sustained the loss by death of one of its
vice-presidents, Mr. Charles Tilt, on which event his
daughter has presented £lOO to the institution. A great
loss had also been sustained by the death of Mr. Baldock.
Mr. Sharp, through ill health, had retired from the board•
Mr. Butterworth moved the adoption of the report,
which
was seconded by Mr. Stewart and agreed to. The officers
for they ear ensuing were then nominated, and a vote of
thanks having been passed to the officers of the past year,
and to tile chairman, the proceedings terminated.

SPO.RI7NG INTELLIGENC,Y.

The report whieli has just been issued for the
ar /861 by the Civil Service Commiseioner,.; show
how the extent of their jurisdiction is gradually
being enlarged. Last year they had to deal with
more than 4,000 nominations for the home Civil
Service. Certificates are now granted for Admi-
ralty artificers and artificers employed under the
War-office ; and the Admiralty have opined to
general competition the situations of engineer boys
in their factories, and of apprentices in the dock-
yarde. The boys at some of the dockyards have ac-
quitted themselves very satisfactcrily. The Com-
missioners in June last examined candidates for
student interpreterships in China and Japan, at the
request of the Foreign Secretary, and are now
about, in consequence of a communication from the
Colonial-office, to examine candidates for interpre-
terships at Hong Kong. In April last arrangements
were completed for establishing a preliminary test
examination for the departments under toe control
of the Treasury, and a large number of candidates
presented themselves. Out of 594 who tried, 302
failed. The examination is not confined to the rudi-
ments of education, but extends to subjects a know-
ledge of which i 3 necessary to the particular depart-
ment. The appendix to the report gives a table re-
lating to 266 situations competed for in the year,
and for which 715 eligible nominees presented
themselves and were examined ; 266 were success-
ful. 141 persons were nominated in the year to
clerkships or similar positions, without competition.
Of the unsuccessful competitors 41 obtained place's
sufficiently high to bring them within the number
of situations competed for, and would have received
appointments but that they failed in particular
subjects, which were, except in 15 cases, of imme-
diate practical utility for the discharge of the offi-
cial duties. These failures are of course now very
diminished in number by the institution of preli-
minary test examinations. In non-competitive
examinations there were 2,922 certificates given
and 444 rejections. Out of the total of 2,733 re-
jections (to 10,362 certificates granted), from 1855
to the present time, all but 145 have failed in arith-
metic, in spelling, or in reading the addresses of
letters—a test to which candidates for the situation
of letter carrier and rural messenger are subjected.
133 were rejected on the health, and 154 on the
ground of moral, health or character. Thus far of
the home Civil Service; in that of India 80 appoint-
' ments were offered for open competition in each of
the last two years, and there will be at least as
many this year. The number of candidates in
1860 was only 154, last year 171; 49 of these last
were sons of clergymen or ministers ; 36 of the can-
didates came from Oxford, 34 from Cambridge, 27
from Trinity College, Dublin, 7 from the Queen's
University in Ireland (3 from Belfast and 4 from
Cork), and 20 from the Scotch Universities. Of
the five who stood first, four were Scotch by birth
or education. The highest mark for Latin and for
English competition were obtained by Oxford.
candidates ; one previously educated obtained the
highest marks for natural science ; the
highest for Sanskrit and for Arabic were ob-
tained by Irish candidates. The number offering
themselves for examination in Sanskrit, only six
out of an aggregate of 295 candidates in 1855 and
the three following years, was 36 last year out of
171—a very satisfactory change. The examinations
show some tendency in candidates to diffuse their
reading over a considerable number of subjects,
instead of confining themselves to a few, and ob-
taining a thorough:knowledge of them. Marks not

the further examination at which the selected can-
didates have to present themselves after their year
of study, that for 16 of those who attended last year
they were unable to grant certificates ; and they add,
while admitting the importance of general study
befoze examination, that they think it most impor-
tant that, when a place on the selected list has been
obtained, the year which follows should be entirely
devoted to preparation for official duty.

As soon as the flag fell the lot got away in good order,
but had not proceeded far when Sunflower took the com-
mand, with Northern Light and Duhallow next in com-
mand, Romeo, Huntsman, and Black rose next. At the
first fence (hurdles) Northern Light nearly came down on
his head, but Mr. Goodman quickly steadied him, and he
came on to the water jump third; Canteen, following the
grey's example, hit the hurdles and rolled over on his side,
throwing Meany, and breaking away galloped across the
course. After this they charged the water jump, which all
got well over, and entered the meadow in the following
order, viz., Sunflower, with a lead of half-a-dozen lengths ;
Duhallow second; Northern Light third; Romeo, Hunts-
man, Black Rose, Wee Nell, and Sutherland, with Nelly,
a long way behind, last, On rounding the extreme turning
flag Black Rose put on the steam, and, running through
her horses, soon had a strong. lead, which she maintained
over each succeeding fence, and, when crossing the road on
to the course, close to the Blue Bells, she was at least a
hundre I yards ahead of Sunflower, who was a dozen lengths
in advance of the " grey ;" Romeo was fourth; Wee Nell,
Sutherland, and Huntsman, nearly abreast, next, with
Duhallow a long way behind, bringing up the rear, Mr.
Land's horse having met with a mishap along the back,

sailing away, ns
positions of the others were unchanged, the lot charging
the water jump nearly in Indian file, all getting well over
that obstacle, and likewise the stiff fence out of the
course, where Wee Nell improved her position, but not
into the t
for long, as the pace was too great for her, and she
quickly fell again
but the pace began to tell on her, and at every stride
she appeared to be coming back to her horses, and when
the hurdles going into the straight were cleared, both
Romeo and the Northern Light were up with her, and be-
fore they had gone far along the straight, the two had passed
the course the ast time, h e

that Romeo had the race in hand ; for immediately after
landing over the last hurdles, he drew away from the grey,
and won easily by four lengths. Mr. Goodman eased
Northern Light when he found he was beat, and Black Rose
being persevered with to the end secured the second money
by half a length; Northern Light beating Sunflower by
four lengths ; Wee Nell was fifth, Sutherland sixth ; Hunts-
man walked in, and did not pass the post, Lamplugh get-
ting off him before entering the paddock ; the Grand Na-
tional winner having broken down (off fore leg) very badly ;
Duhallow and Nelly were both stopped on the far side of
the course, and walked home by a nearer cut.

The Selling Steeplechase and the Juvenile Selling Stakes
did not fill.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER-FRIDAY.

For the Chester Cup, 20 to 1 was taken about the Black
Prince, and 25 to 1 against his stable companion Hadji
Stavros. Old Calabar has had supporters for the Two
Thousand Guineas at 4 to 1, and not a strong disposition
evinced to lay that price. 10 to 1 was freely offered on the
field for the Northampton Stakes; but nothing has been
done on it during the week. Tho meagre character of the
annexed quotations is attributable to the transactions at
Doncaster Meeting. Closing prices :

OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE EIGHT-OARED

RACE.

Both University crews have now entered upon what is
called strict training, and but very trifling changes are to
be looked for between this and the day of the race. We
subjoin below the correct names and weights of the men as
they have been rowing during the past week. Both at
Oxford and Cambridge, if we may judge by the numbers
attracted to the towing path to witness the daily toil,
it appears that quite as much interest as ever is taken
in this the peerless race of the year. The course, as
usual, will be from Putney to Mortlake, and the day has
been finally fixed for Saturday, April 12, when it will
