REORGANISATION OF THE ARMY.

The reorganisation of the army is a serious
matter. It means tearing away tender attach-
ments, lacerating the ligaments of office, disturb-
ing repose, disarranging vested and invested inte-
rests, upsetting departments—in a word, putting
the official hive into a tremendous commotion.
Queen bees and workers and drones are all alive
.
ready to fight and sting for their own particular
honey cell. And no wonder if one of the results of
the contest should be delay and indecision, parti-
cularly as departments never reform themselves.
Meanwhile, no one is responsible for the mischief
arising from uncertainty and perhaps igno-
rance of affairs in one of the most important
branches of the national service. We used to laugh
at a Russian admiral or post captain with spurs,
but surely the transfer of an excellent county magis-
trate and clever M.P. from the control of the Navy
to the administration of the Army would appear
" very odd" to persons who were not acquainted
with Sir John Pakiugton's peculiar versatility and
audacity of undertaking. He is the Conservative
Lord John—

" A man go various that he seems to be
Not one, but all mankind's opitome."

And we are quite certain he would make as good a
War Minister as the War-office clerks and heads
of departments will let any man be, if he would
only stiffen his backbone and act with some deci-
sion. From what we have seen we are led to think
that it is almost better to have a man of deci-
sion, even if he be wrong, at the head of
affairs than one who is not sure whether
he is right or wrong, and who twists and
turns round every corner of every subject pre-
sented to him. Look at this transport orga-
nisation scheme. We gave the substance of
the report of Lord Strathuairn's Committee
long ago. What is the us'; of going to the trouble
and expense of a counnitsion if its report is to be
hung up in the Dilly-Dally Office for daws to peck
at till it falls to pieces or is pecked into nothing-
ness ? A contemporary, whose eyes are very wide
open, as it lives in the dark—the Stryx Bubo of
our weekly literature—says the report is to be re-
ferred to a Royal Commission. If the Owl could
only tell us what will become of the report of the
Royal Commission that is to be on the report of the
Commission that has been it would be gratifying
and of ease to the mind.--lviny and Navy Gazette.

THE ATLANTIC CABLE. —The public will learn
with satisfaction that the following telegram has just
been received from Valencia, viz.: —" Good results ob-
tained last night. Place fault about three miles from
office at Heart's Content ;" confirming the conclusion that
the fault in the cable of 1866 is distant from the land
only one mile and a half,:and in water so shallow that the
repair can be made quickly and at small expense. Yes-

2. As TO THE FINANCIAL POSITION OF TILE SOCIETY.

That the Assets on June 30, 1866, wore £1,619,539 14 8
And the Liabilities on the same date ... 1,313,708 19 2

Leaving a surplus of £275,830 15 6

and that, after setting aside £50,000 as a special Reserve
Fund,
THE AVAILABLE PROFIT was £225,830 15s. 6d.,
of which sum £225,000 was recommended for division.
3. As TO THE RESULTS OF THE DIVISION.
That the portion of this sum of £225,000—viz., five-sixths,
or £lB7,soo—which fell to the Assured, would yield a

REVERSIONARY ADDITION TO THE POLICIES
of £272,68'2, averaging 45 per Cent., or varying, with the
different ages, from 32 to 85 per Cent. on the premiums
paid since the last division ; and that the
CASH BONUS, which is the exact equivalent of such
Reversionary Bonus, would average 26 per Cent. of the
like premiums.
The Report explained at length the nature of the In-
vestments and the bases of the Calculations, the results of
which, as above shown, are eminently favourable.

The'next DIVISION OF PROFITS will take place in
January, 1872, and Persons who effect NEW POLICIES
BEFORE THE END OF JUNE NEXT will be entitled
at that Division to one year's additional share of Profits
over later Assurers.

tioned, and a detailed account of the proceedings of the
Bonus Meeting, can bo obtained from any of the Society's

MARKETS.—This day.

MARS-LANE.

Tho supplies of wheat brought forward in the country
markets held on Saturday were very • moderate, yet the
demand for all kinds was heavy, at, in some instances, re-
duced currencies. Barley and most other articles moved
off slowly at late rates.
The Continental markets have become less active for
produce ; but in America prices continue to advance.
The imports of foreign and colonial produce into
London last week amounted to 50,730 quarters of wheat;
130 barley ; 55,717 oats ; 950 beans ; 211 peas; 4,422 lin-
seed ; 25,014 rapes-led ; 6,215 maize ; 20 sundry ; and
1,630 sacks of flour.
A few forced sales were made at a decline in the quoin-
tions, compared with Monday last, uf from ls. to 2s. per
quarter. Tho market, however, may be considered a
nominal one.

THE DEFEAT OF ➢fAXIMILIAN.

Misfortune and disaster to the Imperial cause in
Mexico are following each other in rapid succession,
and the overthrow of the empire and the speedy
capture and possible death of Maximilian seem
almost certain. Queretaro, his stronghold, has
fallen into the hands of its liberal besiegers. Mira-
mon, the ablest of the Imperial generals, is dead,
and Maximilian is already a fugitive, seeking if he
may find any available escape from the country.
Secretary Seward's special messenger to intercede
for the life of the Emperor has not yet found
President Juarez, and it is said that his mission
would be of no avail, as Minister Campbell,
through whom the note was sent, as Mexi-
can Minister, has never occupied and does
not now occupy that position. Juarez has ordered
his generals to capture Maximilian alive, and they
will doubtless be content if they secure possession of
his Majesty. Miguel Miramon, whose death, ac-
companied by the fall of Queretaro, was the most
damaging blow the empire has yet received, was
about thirty-six years old, and for the last te❑
years has played a prominent part in the Mexican
drama. Ile was commander of the army during
Zuloaga's presidency, and succeeded him in that
position. The claims of England, France, and
Spain against Mexico which finally resulted in the
French expedition thither, and the establishment
of Maximilian's empire were all based on treaties
effected by Miramon.—Springfield Republican.

The Great Eastern certainly moves in a sea of
troubles, and her career of misfortune seems to have
been brightened only, by one grandact. On Friday
evening last week Mr. J. W. Carr, of Liverpool,
solicitor, acting on behalf of 300 of the late crew,
forwarded affidavits to the Court of Admiralty in
support of their claims for wages for three months,
amounting to £4,500. On Saturday morning
citation was issued, and the Receiver of Wrecks
at Liverpool, acting on behalf of the Marshal
of the Court of Admiralty, seized the great
ship, and is now in possession. Instructions
were sent to institute another suite on behalf
of 30 more seamen. Another suit has been insti-
tuted against her for towage services, and yet an-
other for necessaries to the amount of £BOO. A
meeting of the seamen has been held. It is under-
stood that the owners decline to pay until it is de-
cided by some competent court what is the amount
really due to the men, so that they may be in a
position to institute a suit against the French com-
pany. At the Liverpool Police-court Captain Sir
James Anderson appeared in answer to two sum-
monses by the purser and a seaman for the reco-
very of wages due to them for the voyage last made
from and to Liverpool and New York, vii Brest.
The company did not dispute the liability for the
voyage, and judgment for the amounts claimed in
e:.ch case was given.
The French Government is said to have issued
orders for the cessation of the armaments which
4Ne recently been carried on.

THAMES.

A SAVAGE FELLOW.—William Malcolm, a labourer,
was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with making a
disturbance in front of the parish church of St. John,
Wapping, and ♦iolently assaulting John Craig, a police
constable No. 117 K.

Yesterday morning, soon after the service had com-
menced in Wapping Church, the prisoner made a hideous
noise close to the doors of the church, and disturbed the
congregation. Mr. Stock, the sexton and beadle of the
church, went out and expostulated with the prisoner in a
civil manner, and pointed out to him the impropriety of
disturbing people at their devotions. The prisoner made
use of bad language, and abused Mr. Stock, who called the
attention of Craig to the fellow. Craig was unable to per-
suade the fellow to leave the vicinity of the church, and
took him into custody. The prisoner immediately set a
ferocious dog on the constable, and the animal tore his
trousers, and bit his leg. The prisoner beat off the cur
and again collared the prisoner, who knocked his helmet
off. After a determined resistance he secured the
prisoner.
The prisoner said he was intoxicated, and knew nothing
of the transaction of yesterday.
Mr. Paget said the prisoner was a savage and cowardly
fellow; who kept a dog to attack people. He sentenced
him to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for one calen-
dar month,

Vauban, from his running this year, is certain to ba one
of the first three, if not tho actual winner.

The Rake has assu tried a more healthy appearance, and
if he can be brought sound to the post, he must near win.
Marksman, the property of Mr. Merry, is almost certain
to got a place.

Van Amburgh, by Van Galen, out of Cavriana, is a
well-bred horse, and if his running with Wroughton was
correct it ought to be 10 to 1 on him instead of 7 to 1 agst
him. Mr. Cartwright seldom wines race when his horse
is a favourite. He may win, but I have no confidence in
his pretensions.

The Dragon has gone entirely out of the betting.
The Palmer belongs to one of the most astute gentlemen
on the turf, and may win.

Grand Cross has undergone one of John Soott's altera-
tions, and ought to be held harmless.

Dwain Glendwyr was short of preparation when he ran
in the Guineas, and will certainly improve that perform-
ance. Indeed, if any outsider should upset the favourite,
or " split" them for a situation, it will, I feel persuaded, be
the " Welshman."

Fitz Ivan is a much-improved horse and may run into

a place.

Julius will run, I think, a better horse than most people

imagine.

Gipsy King will harm his backers more than the book-
makers.

Master Butterfly, by Kettledrum, out of Butterfly, 18
well bred enough for anything, and has been backed for

all I can say in his favour. The judge I expect will

REORGANISATION OF THE ARMY.

The reorganisation of the army is a serious
matter. It means tearing away tender attach-
ments, lacerating the ligaments of office, disturb-
ing repose, disarranging vested and invested inte-
rests, upsetting departments—in a word, putting
the official hive into a tremendous commotion.
Queen bees and workers and drones are all alive
ready to fight and sting for their own particular
honey cell. And no wonder if one of the results of
the contest should be delay and indecision, parti-
cularly as departments never reform themselves.
Meanwhile, no one is responsible for the mischief
arising from uncertainty and perhaps igno-
rance of affairs in one of the most important
branches of the national service. We used to laugh
at a Russian admiral or post captain with spurs,
but surely the transfer of an excellent county magis-
trate and clever M.P. from the control of the Navy
to the administration of the Army would appear
" very odd" to persons who were not acquainted
with Sir John Pakington's peculiar versatility and
audacity of undertaking. He is the Conservative
Lord John—

" A man so various that he seems to be
Not one, but all mankind's epitome:"

And we are quite certain he would make as good a
War Minister as the War-office clerks and heads
of departments will let any man be, if he would
only stiffen his backbone and act with some deci-
sion. From what we have seen we are led to think
that it is almost better to have a man of deci-
sion, even if he be wrong, at the head of
affairs than one who is not sure . whether
he is right or wrong, and who twists and
turns round every corner of every subject pre-
sented to him. Look at this transport orga-
nisation scheme. We gave the substance of
the report of Lord Strathnairn's Committee
long ago. What is the use of going to the trouble
and expense of a commission if its report is to be
hung up in the Dilly-Dally Office for daws to peck
at till it falls to pieces or is pecked into -nothing-
ness ? A contemporary, whose eyes are very wide
open, as it lives in the dark--the Stryx Bubo of
our weekly literature—says the report is to be re-
ferred to a Royal Commission. If the Owl could
only tell us what will becotno of the report of the
Royal Commission that is to be ou the report of the
Commission that has been it would be gratifying
and of ease to the mind.—,lriity and Nary Gazette.

THE ATLANTIC CABLE. —The public will learn
with satisfaction that the following telegram has just
been received from Valencia, viz.:—a' Good results ob-
tained last night. Place fault about three miles from
office at Heart's Content ;" confirming the conclusion that
the fault in the cable of 1866 is distant from the land
only one mile and a half,, nd in water so shallow that the
repair can be made quickly and at small expense. Yes-
terday 71 messages passed through the cable of 1863,

FOUR-OARED REGATTA AT WESTMINSTER,.
A four-oared race took place on Saturday aftern9on
amongst watermen and landsitren for handsome prizes

street, Westmiustet, and after two preliminary heats the
final resulted as follows : •

dead heat by Charles Taylor, the referee; the others
w

minster-bridge.
NEWCASTLE.
On Saturday the match between the veterans Harry
Clasper and Mat Taylor, to row from the High Level-
bridge to Scotswood, for £2O, took place shortly after the
time Announced. The betting was ti to 4on Taylor, who
won rather easily by 100 yards. Time, 23 min. 35 sec.
Considering their age, and the large number of races that
they have rowed, this must be considered a wonderful per-
formance.

CATTLE PLAGUE.

In reply to Mr. DENT, •
Lord 11. MONTAGU said it was unfortunately true
that a fresh case of cattle plague had been reported that
morning. It occurred at a dairy at Duncan-terrace,
Islington, at which there were 95 cows in the shed, 12 of
whom were attacked. The question of dealing with the
importation of foreign cattle was then under the considera-
tion of the Privy Council.
REPRESENTATION OF THE PEOPLE BILL.
The house then went into Eotnmittue on this bill.
The question was the adoption of au amendment moved
by Mr. Hodglinson as an addition to the 3d clause, viz.:—
" Provided always that, except as hereinafter provided, no
person other than the occupier shall, after the passing of
the act, be rated to parochial rate in respect of premises
occupied by hint within the limits of a parliamentary
borough all acts to the contrary now in force notwith-
standing."
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said ho
thought the proposition recommended by the hon. gentle-
man could be effected by some of the clauses is the bill.
(Loud cries of "Hear, hear.") There were some difficulties
in the way, but on a consideration of the subject by
his colleagues, it had been determined to make certain in-
quiries, wich he would report to the house on Thursday,
on which day he hoped to propose a course of proceedings
which would facilitate the passing of the bill and its pas-
sage to the other house. (Hear, hear.) tinder these
ci.cumstances he thought it inexpedient to proceed with
the 34th clause. (Hear, hear.) The house would, on the
disposal of the 3d clause, now proceed with clause 4 in
the usual way.
Mr. HODGINKSON said, under these circumstances he
should not pross his amendment.
The amendment was then, by leave, withdrawn, and on
the motion that the clause stand part of the bill,
• Mr. LO WE said he hoped. the house would allow him to
make a few obseri'ations, especially as it was on a subject
which had not yet referred to during the discussions which
had place on the bill. He thought he was not demanding too
much if he asked that clause 3, as amended, should be re-
printed, in order that every person might know
exactly how it stood, because no clause had been
more cobbled (laughter) —or more discussed in
iu the House of Commons. The clause enacted a perfect
revolution, and under such circumstances it was most im-
portant that every one should kuow the precise terms of
such an important enactment. It appeared from the bill
that all householders were to have a vote except
those who were excused from the payment of rates from
poverty, such it proposition, coming from the quarter it
di 1, was in itself a revolution. All previous principles
were discarded in order that the bill might go forward,
like the car of Juggernaut, crushing the principles of its
supporters under its wheels. (Laughter and cheers.)

HELIGOLAND.

We learn from Hamburg papers that Governor
Ala,xse's decree for the abolition of the gambling
tables at Heligoland has produced great consterna-
tion among the inhabitants, the more so as it has
become necessary to resort to a tax to supply the
void caused to the revenue, hitherto mainly depen-
dent on this vicious source. Heligolanders have
hitherto regarded their gaming house in the light
of a temple, wherein a deity presided for the pur-
pose of receiving tribute from foolish strangers on
their behalf. That " our dear Government," as
they express themselves, which maintains all the
island officials for nothing, can sympathise with a
sacrilegious attempt to depose their island god, and
that they should be compelled to support themselves,
they refuse to believe; consequently indignation
meetings have been held and the home Government
petitioned ; also a "Parliament" has been returned
(for this small community boasts of a constitution
and representative assembly) pledged to oppose all
taxation, and thus render the play-table a neces-
sity. However, the world moves on, and it is to
be feared even Heligoland must accompany it in
its course. The Governor's energy, it seems, has
already usefully prevailed in abating the inordinate
claims of his islanders to salvage in cases of wreck,
which they have, unfortunately, but too often occa-
sion to prefer, while, at the same time, by cultivat-
ing the neglected oyster-beds which surround the
island, he has materially improved its resources.
We wish him equal success in his present reform,
which Heligolanders may as well understand is not
to be evaded. —Post.
