It will be observed that the number of young men
brought forward for the Engineers was fewer on this oc-
Casio' than it usually is, but Sir Charles Easley, the pub-
lic examiner, reported that the first six of those brought
forward for the Artillery required only a little further
training to it them for the Engineers, and recommended
that they
should be allowed to present themselves again
for eza7iination in March next, when it would be finally
determined to what class they should be assigned.

Macdonell ; three fronts •f Carnot's system for hilly
ground (scale one-eigtlith inch to a foot) was explained

and forts of Sebastopol (scale 1-16 inch to a foot, cover-
ing a space of about 2,200 square feet) was explained by
Cadets E. Jones and Forbes. During the time thus oc-
cupied Cadets Carneigie, Cairnes, Delafosse, Shuldham,

partment took place in the hall, subsequently to which
the prizes were distributed. The fortification drawings
also met with great approbation.
