VOLUNTEER INTELLIGENCE,

METROPOLITAN VOLUNTEER RIFLE MATCH
FOR THE MIDDLESEX CHALLENGE CUP.

During the past few days (since Monday last) the
most important rifle match in connexion with the
metropolitan volunteers which has been held since
the annual prize meeting of the National Rifle As-
sociation has been shot off, by permission of Lieut.-
Col. Lord Elcho, M.P., and Lieut.-Col. Viscount
Bury, M. P., at the butts of the London Scottish
and Civil Service Rifles, at Wimbledon.
The match, which was among no less than 12 of
the best shooting regiments in and around the me-
tropolis, was for the honour of holding the beautiful
challenge prize, value £5O, presented for competition
among the volunteers of the county of Middlesex
by the County Shooting Committee ; and it is satis-
factory to state that the efforts thus made to extend
by important contests the practice of the rifle have
been crowned with success, as is evidenced by the
fact that nearly 120 volunteers went down to Wim-
bledon and entered for the prize.
The conditions of the contest were that 10 effi-
cient volunteers from each battalion having its head-
quarters in the county of Middlesex, including the
City of London and Tower Hamlets, should com-
pete at 200, 500, and 600 yards, with seven shots,
for the prize; from the shoulder at 200 yards, and
from the knee at 500 and 600 ; no sighting shots.
The remaining conditions were as follow :

" Riflos, targets, and scoring, &c., the same as for the
Queen's Prize at the previous Wimbledon meeting.
" Entrance fee, £2 from each battalion for each compe-

tition.

" The competitions to be divided into two stages, and
only so many battalions to shoot on each day in the first
stage as there are complete sets of targets. Each winning
battalion on each day in first stage to receive 10 per cent.
of entrance fees, and each winning battalion in first stage
to shoot in second stage under same conditions.
" The winning battalion in second stage to hold the cup,
no additional money prize boing given, until one week before
the next contest, when it shall be handed over to the silver-
smith. The commanding officer of the battalion holding the
cup to be responsible for its safety.
" The names of the winning squad to be engraved on
the cup.
"No two competitors allowed to use the same rifle."
Monday was the first day appointed for the match,
and shortly after 9 o'clock the marksmen from the
following regiments, who were all under the com-
mand of Captain Henderson, of the 46th Middlesex
(London and Westminster) Rifles, arrived on the
ground :-Ist Middlesex (Victorias), 2d Battalion
22d Middlesex (Queen's Westminster), 2d or South
Middlesex Rifles, 9th or West Middlesex Rifles, and
21st Middlesex (Civil Service) Rifles.

The shooting, which throughout was of the most
spirited character, was then commenced at the '2OO
yards range; and afterwards at 500 and 600 yards,
and at the close of this, the first day's competition,
the score stood thus :

Score.
2d Battalion 22d Middlesex, Queen's (Westiiiin-
riter) Rifles 502
Average 50.2
2d South Middlesex 485

21st Middlesex (Civil Service)
4314
let Middlesex (Victories)

The West Middlesex and the St. George's retired
from the contest at 600 yards range, assigning as
their reason for doing so that they could not see the
mark, thus leaving the Queen's at the head of the
list.

The shooting was resumed on-Wednesday morning
at a comparatively early hour, and the following
regiments entered the list.
Hon, Artillery Corapany, 19th Middlesex (Work-

The competition thus rested between the Queen's
and the London Scottish, and yesterday was the
clay appointed for its decision, but in consequence of
the protest of the St. George's and West Middlesex,
the shooting between these two regiments has been
postponed pending the decision of the Council of
the National Rifle Association.

LORD TRURO'S VOLUNTEER BRIGADE.
The annual distribution of prizes to the successful
competitors last season at Plumsteacl and Staines in
Lord Truro's volunteer brigade, which consist of
the Ist Middlesex Light Horse, 3d Middlesex Artil-
lery, and the 4th Middlesex (West London) Rifles,
took place last evening in Westminster-hall, and
passed off with even a greater amount of ficiat paid
enthusiasm than usually attends exhibitions of a
similarly pleasing character. There was a verylarge
muster of the members of the 3d Middlesex and
West London Rifles under arms, and a. goodly attend-
dance of the friends and patrons of the brigade, in-
cluding a considerable number of the fair sex. The
hall, which was brilliantly lighted up, presented a
very gay appearance. At the northern end, on
the dais leading to the statue corridor, were seated
the ladies of Lord Truro and other cfficers, and on
two tables in the front were displayed a formidable
array of prizes, nearly all of silver, comprising cups,
salvers, challenge vases, Enfield rifles, meerschaum
pipes, field-glasses, and articles for the table. Alto-
gether the scene was one of great excitement. Five
bands were in attendance, playing with admirable
effect a selection of marches and overtures.

Lord Truro, accompanied by Col. Erskine, en-
tered the hall about half-past 8 o'clock, and was
received with full military honours. He briefly
addressed the brigade, expressing his unqualified
gratification at finding so large an assemblage on
such an interesting occasion. He regarded that fact
as an evidence that the brigade had discharged their
duty to the satisfaction of those who knew them
best, and that it had created somewhat of interest
among the public at large. Ile wished that it were
possible for other countries to witness the array
called together at the giving of prizes to volunteer
corps in this kingdom, for it would satisfy them not
only of the wisdom of the volunteer
.movement as
a means of defence, but that that movement bad
taken deep hold on . the affections of the country.
He congratulated the assemblage on the progress
which had been made by the volunteer movement
since its commencement, while he regretted that the
meeting took place at a time of the year when the
Middlesex Light Horse were engaged in hunting, or
other country pursuits ; and the same reason must
account for the absence of the volunteer cavalry.
With the 3d Middlesex Artillery he was highly
pleased. It had largely increased in the course of
the year, and he thanked them for their good atten-
dance and the industry they had exhibited this year
both at drill and gun practice. The 4th Middlesex
had also shown not only a great increase in numbers
but marked efficiency, and he thought be was fully
justified in saying that they would bear comparison
with all other corps in drill or rifle practice. With
these observations he should proceed to the imme-
diate business of the evening.
Previously to distributing the valuable series of
prizes, which amounted to upwards of £5OO, Sur-
geon-Major Rice, in the absence of Captain J. H.
Johns, on behalf of the officers and members of the
3d Middlesex Artillery, presented Lieut.-Colonel
the Right Hon. Lord Truro with a very beautiful
sword, in silver scabbard, and Major J. F. Woodall,
President of the Regimental Shooting Committee of
the West London Rifles, offered for his lordship's
acceptance on behalf of the regiment, a handsomely
illuminated album, exquisitely bound in carved oak,
containing an address to the following effect, signed
by between three and four hundred members of the
corps :

" We, the officers, non-commissioned officers, and pri-
vates of the West London Rifle Volunteers, availing our-
selves of the opportunity of the prize distribution, desire
to offer the expression of our sincere respect and esteem to
your lordship as our commanding officer, and our high ap-
preciation of your liberality, courtesy, and constant effort
for the advancement of the interests of the corps, which
has been raised to its present high position by your lord-
ship's laborious and persevering exertions. We are per-
suaded there is not a commanding officer in the service
who is more anxious for the prosperity of the corps under
his command, or who endeavours so constantly to meet the
wishes of all, whether officers or men, consistently with
his duty, and we trust the unanimity and good feeling
which consequently exist in the regiment are to your lord-
ship sources of gratification and pride."

This album was greatly admired, and did in-
finite credit to the taste of the eminent illumina-
tor, Mr. Openheim, of Carey-street. Independent
of its intrinsic merit as the gift of an efficient and
well-disciplined regiment to an amiable and ener-
getic commanding officer, the actual cost of the
volume was somewhat more than £5O.

In the course of Major WOOD ALL'S brief address
he mentioned the gratifying fact that 157 men of
the corps had fired through the first, second, and
third classes, and only 18 still remained in the third
class.

Lord Truro, in returning thanks to the artillery
company, alluded to the singular privilege which
had been conceded to him by the War-office of
commanding no less than three volunteer corps.
He had endeavoured to show his sense of such dis-
tinction by zeal and attention to the interests and
efficiency of the several corps, and he found his
reward in their present well-disciplined and satisfac-
tory condition. For the splendid sword presented
by the 3d Middlesex Artillery his lordship said he
felt deeply indebted, and he should hold it in re-
membrance of the many pleasant hours he had
passed in endeavouring to contribute to the effi-
ciencyl
Nearly o f thetw corps.
hours
were occupied in t
distribu-
tion of the prizes. To each successful Ice competitor
Lord Truro addressed words of general encourage-
ment and approval. Several of the officers and men
were greeted with hearty rounds of applause on pre-
senting themselves, more especiailMajor Woodall,
Sergeant Bingham (late of the 48th Regiment), and
Colour-Sergeant Hayborne. Captain Bay, presi-
dAernttilloefry,e shooting committee of the 3d Middlesex
was also presented, on behalf of his
brother officers and men, with a testimonial in the
shape of an album or " pictorial roll call," in re-
cognition of the services which he has so continu-
ously rendered to the corps.
At the termination of the proceedings,
Colonel ERSKINE, inspector of Volunteers, made
a few complimentary observations, making special
allusion to the good feeling which existed between
the artillery and infantry corps in the brigade.

BREAKFAST BEV ER AG E. —Homceopathic praot I tiOnerS, and
the medical profession generally, recommend cocoa as being
the most healthful of all beverages. When the doctrine of
homeopathy was first introduced into this country, there
were to be obtained no preparations of cocoa either attrac-
tive to the taste or acceptable to the stomach ; the nut was
either smiled in the crude state, or so unskilfully manu-
factured as to ebtain little notice. J. Epps, of London,
homoeopathic chemist, was induced in the year 18:39 to turn
his attention to this aubje t, and at length sue:ceded, with
the assistance of elaborate machinery, in being the first to
produce an article pure in its composition, aid so refined by
the pert et trituration it re -elves in the process it passe]
through, as to be most acceptable to the delicate t.tomaelt.
For general use Epps' cocoa is distill: uished as an invigo-
rating, grateful breakfast beverage, with a delicious aroma.
Dr. Hassall in his work. "Food and its Adulterations,"
says—" Cocoa contains a great variety of important nutritive
principles ; every ingredient necessary to the growth and
sustenance of the body." Again, "As a nutritive, cocoa
stands very much higher than. either coffee or tea." Direc-
tions : —Two tcaspooufuls of the powder in a breakfast cup,

After Mr. Bright's speech (whice appeared in The
San of yesterday), Mr. G. DIXON moved a vote of
thanks to the borough members, and in the course
of his remarks said he had one question to ask, and
it was—Why was their respected and honoured
junior member not at that present moment a Cabinet
Minister? (Cheers.) Some said Mr. Bright's prin-
ciples were so unbending that he could not submit
to what was involved in taking office. There were
others who said that the great leaders of the Liberal
party looked upon Mr. Bright with distrust, if not
with fear ; but, let the reason be what it might, the
fact remained the shine—that Mr. Bright, after
successful and distinguished calve,: in the House of
Commons, unlike those who hail followed careers
less distinguished and less honourable, still remained
among them unpossessed of the rewards which
usually followed such a career. (hear, hear, and
cheers.) Mr. Bright had seen young men, his col-
leagues, taken one by one from his side, and placed
in offices of power, of emolument, and of labour;
but he remained still unadorned with the insignia of
office. (Hear, hear.) IL would ask, what did Mr.
Bright do under those circumstances ? If he was
informed correctly, Mr. Bright had tendered a ge-
nerous support to the Ministry, who without his aid
could not continue in office, but which yet had no
reward to offer him in return. To his fellow-
townsmen he would say that it was on that platform
that their great tribune must receive his reward in
the applause of an admiring and grateful people.
(Cheers.).
Mr. BRIGHT, in reply, said—My friend Mr. Dixon
is not so experienced a speaker as I am, and he has
travelled a little bit off the line—(laughter)---but,
notwithstanding that, I will take care that there
shall not be in the shape of a collision -be-
tween us. (Hear hear, and laughter.) He has spoken
of the fact of my being, as I say, your representative
in the House of Commons, and not one of the Go-
vernment that has been in some sort—at least, issaid
to have been—partly reconstructed. lam not sure
whether office in our day can be considered theproper
reward for long services faithfully rendered to the
public. (Hear.) For a conscientious man office must
be very burdensome. There are men in this Govern-
ment who feel it so ; and now the public are so much
alive to all questions—the public is so great a public
now—that almost every man in office has, I think,
five times the larden of work and amount of re-
sponsibility he - had some years ago ; and when
I look at those gentlemen who sit upon that
Treasury bench, which so many men, especially
those opposite—(laughter)—Sir John Pakington
is one of them (renewed laughter)—look at with
eyes glistening, as it were, with anxiety, some-
times with hope, sometimes, perhaps, with
something not very hopeful—when I see these gen-
tlemen on the bench, when I consider the number
of hours they have to sit there, how languid they
look, and how, towards the close of the session,
they all give signs of weariness which is detrimental
to health, I confess I do not know how anybody
who has his senses about hint can wish to be one of
their;number. (Laughter.) However, I think it pro-
bable that if 1 had the ambition of office--if that
had been the chief ambition of my political life—
probably long before this I should have been in
some office of " dignity and emolument," and my
present office is one not of emolument, but it is one
of very great dignity. (Enthusiastic cheering.) In
partnership with my hon. friend I represent one of
the largest, and I will undertake to say—and I say
nothing more now than I should have said had I had
no connection with Birmingham—one of the most
intelligent and independent and liberal constituen-
cies in the United Kingdom. (Cheers.) I recollect
that Horace Walpole tells of a man that waded to
dignity through dirt—(" hear, hear," and laughter)
—but there are some men who come to dignities
through the portals of a dead ancestry. I come to
my dignity by the favour of this constituency re-
garding, I hope, the honest—l am sure the honest
—and I hope in some degree the useful course of my
public life. Ido not-envy them who like other dig-
nities, who grasp at office. It is-Conceivable that
man in my position, and with my principles, and
with what I believe truly to exist in my own mind
—the absence of that ambition for office—it is con-
ceivable that it might be my duty to accept office.
(1-fear, hear.) But if that should be so—and it is
a bold figure of speech to speak of—depend upon it
it shall only be when I am thoroughly convinced it
is quite consistent with the-office which I now hold
as your representative in Parliament, and the advo-
cate in some sort—humble and inefficient though it
may be—of the great mass of my countrymen who
are too few in that house to speak their sentiments
or urge their claims. (Loud cheers.) I come here
to these meetings always with a certain trepida-
tion, which yet is always mingled with a certain
pleasure. Hike this town. I like this hall : it speaks,
it looks of freedom. (Cheers.) I like these people.
When I was all but a boy I felt something stir
within me when I read of the conduct of the noble
people of this town, and it has been my wish, dur-
ing the few years I have been connected with you,
in everything I have been permitted to say here, to
say something that could not lower your public
character, or your estimate of public questions or
public men. And if it should happen for years to
come—if my life should be continued, and I should
remain in your service, and that we should find
partly as the result of our labours that our country-
men make further advances in freedom, we will re-
joice in looking back through the past.; and, though
we may not have tasted of what are called—with a
misplacement of terms—the sweets of office—
(laughter)—yet we have that greater and that more
precious reward, which we have striven to earn, and
which we have gained—the good opinion and con-
fidence of a great people. But Mr. Dixon is re-
sponsible for all this. (Laughter.) What he said
really was rather more fitted for that sort of after-
dinner oratory—(laughter)—where men are allowed
to be rather more complimentary than is befitting,
when those gentlemen below are likely to put in
print what is said—(cheers and laughter)—because
what he said is in danger of making me blush.
(Laughter.) I forgive him, out of his kindness, and
1 forgive you for giving any sanction to what he
said, because you are not quite so well informed
about what is meant by official life as I am, after
watching it narrowly for 22 years in the House of
Commons. (Cheers.)

The practical class of officers belonging to the Military
Store:Department in IV oolwich Arsenal, nowgoing through
the laboratory and other manufacturing branches, have re-
ceived a notification that the class will be suspended for
the Christmas holidays from the 18th inst. until the 2d of
January.

remedies, without relief,
after consulting all the most eminent medical men in vain
and trying all sorts of supposed

for comfort on this side of the grave until some lucky ac-
cident has called their attention to Holloway's pills and
ointment. These are genuine remedies indeed. Persons
