THE ARMY.

The General Commanding-in-Chief, accompanied
by the Right Hon, Sidney Herbert, Secretary of
State for War, yesterday visited the Armstrong gan
factory, and the pattern-room where some of the
guns are deposited, in Woolwich Arsenal.
Although the bounty paid to recruits in the
Royal Marine Light Infantry has been reduced
from £5 to £4 each, recruiting for that branch of
the service is proceeding as briskly as before.
Within the last few weeks several parties of fine
young men have been sent up to head-quarters,
Chatham, from the several districts ; and so satis-
factorily has recruiting for that division been
cai vied on that the division is now about 200 men
above its proper complement, each of the divi-
sions being at the me me above their otheruire reqd
strength.
A second batch of 11 guns, 68 pounders, cast in
the old standard foundry in the Royal Arsenal,
under the superintendence of Col. Wil otma nd ,
with-
been fired at the proof butt, Woolwich,
stood the severe test of a couple of rounds extremely
well. Each gun was loaded with 281 b. of powder
and one shot, the highest proof charge, and exhi-
bited no signs of injury. These guns were cast
ailday castings last, and
produced in the early
stage of the new establishment,
from metal known to be highly superior to thole
