diVision which was first turned out to meet the
deadly tide that threatened to sweep the British
Army from the plateau of Inkerman on that
memorable sth of November, • 1854. • Early in the
fight he was Jot severely, and was. removed
from the field with difficulty, hut the skill of
his oil friend Alexander set him up sufficiently
for a voyage homewards to recruit his' strength,
and he returned with all possible speed to his
command before Sebastopol. In compliance with
his desire for active occupation, Lord Raglan
• placed the British portion of the expedition to
Kertch and Yenikale under the command of Sir
i
George Brown, who always felt keenly the mputa7
tions to which he was exposed in consequence of the
destruction of the Museum of antiquities and the
burning of buildings. The excesses which certainly
disgraced the Allies on this occasion he attributed
to the portion of the forces not under his orders,
•and lie regretted subsequently that he had taken
steps to prevent any publicity being given to the
facts. For the patient duties of a long siege Sir
George had no taste, and be_ had still less temper
fOr the endifrance of a trial which is the bitterett
soldier can bear—the promotion of a junior officer
to a coveted command over his head. His failing
health, his wounds, his long services, were grounds
sufficient for the gallant old man's retirement from
the scene wherein he had added much to ancient
laurels and effaced many unfavourable impressions.
Like many goodshearted men, he disliked his own
good-nature, and covered it in with a cloak of
asperity. He would use harsh language to any one
who suspected him of being benevolent. No wonder
if he was the victim of his own injustice to himself,
and created unfavourable impressions which a closer
acquaintance would have removed. On his retire-
ment from the Crimea he received the First Class
of the Medjidie. He was made G.C.B. in 1855,
and Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour. He was
invested with the Order of Savoy by the King of
Sardinia in the same year. The only Order to which
he belonged -before the Crimear War was that of
Knights of Hanover, of which he was created in
1831, but he wore the Peninsular War medal with
seven clasps. He was created General on the 7th of
September, 1855, and was 13th on the list at the
time of his death. In March, 1860, he was ap-
pointed to the Command of the Forces in Ireland,
and he continued in that post till the "five years'
rule" caused his retirement in the spring of the pre-
sent year. For some months he had been failing in
health, and at last he passed away in his native

THE POSITION OF THE BANK.—On a cursory exa-
mination the return of the Bank of England this week
would seem to show some anomalous figures. At this
date last year the rate of interest was 8 per cent., while
now it is only 4 per cont. Yet at that period the reserve
of notes in the till was actually greater than at this mo-
ment. Some persons look to the reserve as the great key
to the state of the market, and these may fancy that
some unsoundness of management must consequently lie
under the present figures. Others, with better reasop,
look to the state of the bullion, and to these the fact that
the total now held is £1,389,378 in excess of the amount

last year, or nearly 11 per cent., will serve as a sufficient
explanation of the difference between the rate of discount
at the respective periods. The fact is that there are occa-
sionally times when the reserve is the question that requires
attention, but that most frequently the true indication of
ntdiha: ttithEbe
the probabilities of the market is to be found in the bullion.
When panic prevails from over-speculation, accompanied
by a tendency to an outflow, and there is a fear that bankers
and others may rush to the Bank of England to draw ou_t
their balances and hoard them, so as to be prepareesdtafbolirailal.l.
