TEE VOLUNTEER MOVEMENT.

In accordance with arrangements stipulated be-
tween the commanding officers of the corps and
Viscount Sydney, Lord-Lieutenant of the county, it
strong body of the Royal Arsenal Volunteers at
-Woolwich mustered on Saturday at 3 o'clock for
the purpose of a general inspection by his lordship.
At half-past 4 o'clock Lord and Lady Sydney ar-
rived at the Arsenal, and the inspection commenced
shortly after. The men were drawn up in line to
the number of about 1,500 of all ranks, and ex-
tended the entire length of the avenue from the
paper factory to the archway at theentrance of the
Royal gun factories. The Artillery Brigade was
commanded by Captain Ellis, in the absence of
Colonel Fullom on leave, and the battalions of
Rifles were in command of Colonel Parkyn and
Colonel Anderson. His Lordship, accompanied by
Colonel Tulloh, Brigadier of the corps, Colonel
Morris, Colonel Luard, and Major Oram, rode up
to the front of the column, upon which the men fell
into open order and presented arms. The three
bands united thereupon and struck up the national
air. His lordship and Staff then rode down the
front of the line, and went through the inspection,
carefully examining the appearance and bearing of
each man ; and, having assembled the commanding
officers, he desired them to make known the satis-
faction which he had derived from the inspection of
the corps, established for the protection of the
Royal Arsenal, and to assure them he was confident
that the trust which her Majesty had so willingly,
confided to them would never be misapplied or dis-
graced by one among them. He could, he said,
but admire and extol their ready and persevering
loyalty, even under the adverse state of the wea-
ther, when so many were assembled, which was a
good guarantee for their honesty of purpose. The
corps then marched past and proceeded up Wel-
lington-street, along the front of the Artillery bar-
racks, and returned by the Old Chariton-road,
when they again assembled in the Arsenal and
were dismissed.
A Volunteer review took place on Thursday in
Oakley Park, Suffolk, the seat of Sir E. C. Kerri-
son, M.P. The Volunteers present comprised the
companies formed at Eye, Stradbroke, and Botes-
dale, which are upwards of 160 strong. A variety
of mancoavres were creditably executed, and the
Volunteers were afterwards entertained at dinner
by Sir Edward Kerrison, M.P., and Lord Henni-
ker, M.P.
The Bristol and Glocestershire Artillery and the
City of Bristol Rifle Volunteer Corps were to have
been inspected on Saturday by Col. M'Murdo, C. 8.,
Inspector-General of Volunteers. Great prepara-
tions had been made for the event. The Duke of
Beaufort despatched the Stapleton and Dodding-
ton troops of the Royal Glocestershire Hussars to
keep the ground. The ladies of Clifton and the
vicinity had subscribed for some handsome silver
bugles, which3were to have been presented to the
two corps by the Mayoress (Mrs. Bates) and Mrs.
General Whish. The weather, however, proved so
unpropitious that the inspection was abandoned.
The Nottingham Robin Hood Rifle Corps has
advanced to a very efficient state with respect to drill.
The ladies of Nottingham have commenced a sub-
scription for the purpose of presenting the nine
companies of the corps with a silver bugle each,
with banneret and colours; also with a horse for
the use of the adjutant. The amount of the funds
raised now exceeds £l3O, but no specific date has
yet been named for the presentation to take place.
In a short time the Peterborough Rifle Corps will
be presented with a silver bugle. The ceremony of
the presentation is to be performed by Lady Ver-
non and the Hon. Mrs. C. W. Fitzwilliam. A butt
is being erected for rifle practice at the expense of
the Hon. G. W. Fitzwilliam (captain of the corps)
on the Caistor-fields, in the neighbourhood of Pe-
terborough.
The Holbeach Volunteer Corps assembled for ball
practice a few days ago, when the result was most
satisfactory, the number of points obtained by the
three successful competitors being 30, 19, and 18.
The average number of each member was 151. There
were also present detachments of the Boston, 11th
GloceStershire, Cirencester, and Westminster Rifle
Corps on the ground.
Tho great Rifle Volunteer review, to take place
at Glocester on the 18th of September, is likely to
be remarkable as a military display. Alroady about
40 corps have intimated their intention of attend-
ing, and to this number an addition of 40 more is
expected. They will come chiefly from the county
of Glocester and surrounding counties. The Go-
vernment has appointed Colonel Dick, Assistant-
Inspector•of Volunteers, to superintend the details,
and excursion trains on the Great Western, Mid-
land, South Wales, and Hereford, Ross, and Glo-
cester Railways will be run. The Glocestershire
Hussars will attend the review. The Duke of Beau-
fort has intimated his intention of " franking" the
Badminton troop to and from Glocester on the
occasion.

The Worcestershire Volunteers, which consist of
18 companies, have been constituted two battalions
—No. 1, consisting of 10 companies, under the com•
mand of Lieutenant-Colonel Knight, M.P. ; and No.
2, consisting of eight companies, commanded by
Lieutenant• Colonel Scobell. On Saturday a meet-
ing of captains was held at Worcester to take steps
for acquiring some proficiency in battalion drill,
preparatory to the review at Glocester, at which
the two battalions will attend. The Stourport com-
pany have commenced rifle practice at targets
placed on Hartlebury-common. The other Wor-
cestershire corps continue steadily their regular
drills.

Under the superintendence of Captain Hornby,
R.N. (the Earl of Derby's representative), Major
Harman, the Assistant-Inspector of Volunteers, and
Captain George Molly, the arrangements for the
Knowsley review have been completed. They are
calculated to give general satisfaction. The forth-
coming event has created so much interest in
Liverpool that for weeks past all the public vehicles
have been engaged by persons intending to be
present.

Lieutenant-Colenel Gladstone and Major Tinley,
of the 2d battalion Lancashire Rifle Volunteers,
are vigorously exerting themselves to render the
Hightown Shooting-ground a model establishment.
Already they have erected 15 perfect ranges, from
300 to 1,100 yards in length, and they purpose
erecting 15 more. If necessary the range can be in-
.

creased to a mile with safety. In order to enable
Volunteers to render themselves competent to shoot
for the prizes at the county meeting in October
next, the terms for the privilege of practising at
Hightown have been arranged on a very liberal
scale. Honorary members pay £2 2s. per annum ;
honorary effective members (that is, persons con-
nected with any corps) pay 111 ls. only. Members
of the 2d battalion pay 10s. 6d. per annum. The
object is to make the ranges as generally useful as
possible. Very comfortable and healthy arrange-
ments have been made for the early encampment of
the 2d battalion at Hightown.

[ADVEILTISEMENT.]—The following are some out of
many thousand extraordinary cures without medicine
effected by Du Barry's delicious Health Restoring Reva-
lenta Arabica Food : —Cure No. 41,617.—Winchester,
December 3, 1847.—Gentlemen,—I am happy to be able to
inform you that the person for whom your Revalenta was
procured has derived very great benefit from its use ; dis•
tressing symptoms of dropsy, dyspepsia, and constipation
of long standing have been, removed, and a feeling of re-
stored health induced. James Shorland, late surgeon, 96th

eased lungs, spitting of blood, liver derangement, deafness,

Avoid Pills and Medicines : they invariably aggravate and
perpetuate diseases ; their annoyance, disappointment,
and expense may be avoided by using Du Barry's Fcod

other remedies, removing effectually, without purging,
constipation, indigestion (dyspepsia) nervous, bilious and
liver, complaints and all their consequences. Certificate

MD., F.R.S., Dr Harvey, Dr. Wurzer, Dr. Shorland, Dr.
Campell. Let invalids avoid the fearful dangers of spu-
rious and injurious imitations offered under a variety of
false pretences. Nevill's imitations are prohibited by the
high Court of Chancery under a penalty of £3,000 against
Alfred H'oper Nevill and his agents ; and the pretences
that Nevill has a patent for Arabica Food and that Du
Barry's are connected with such patent are utterly false.
