should know and feel that their officer was their best
friend. The Indian empire was open earlier to mili-
tary men than any other part of the world; but, in
addition to their military duties, they might be
called upon to render services in a civil and political
capacity. They could not tell how soon they might
be put into a military position ofgreat responsibility
and by their own good conduct might sway the na•
tires, and become the saviours of that great empire,
if an opportunity offered—and whether the occa-
sions would be many or rare no man could tell, yet
they could not act for the attainment of great ob-
jects unless they qualified themselves. In India mil-
lions of people were ruled by a few European chiefs,
and; therefore, more depended on the conduct of an
in India than in any other part of the
globe. T. acquire the confidence of the natives,
they must make themselves acquainted with their
habits and feelings, and then they might consoli-
date the foundations of the permanence of that
vast, empire.• Let them, then, qualify themselves
for that duty, for it was by the conduct of indi-
viduals that the influence of England and the
fate of- the empire was to be maintained, and,
therefore, -on those who had to rule India the
greatest amount of responsibility was imposed.
-They were a dominant race, small in number,
and ruling over- a vrst population by energy,
courage, and moral character ; and, therefore,
he hoped that each of them would endeavour
to mftihtain his character as an English gentleman,
and throughout India show his moral superiority,
so that by the blessing of Divine Providence the
happiness and prosperity of that empire should bo
firmly established. (Cheers.) There were objects
of a higher character, to which, were it not for the
presence of their neighbour,l the Archbishop of Can-
terbury, lie would draw their attention, but his
Grace could speak to them upon that point with-
far more authority and greater ability.than he could,
and therefore he would ask him to address a few
observations upon those more important duties to
which he had referred.
The Archbishop of CANTERBURY said he could ,
not refrain from saying a few words, although they
might be fewer, perhaps, than they had a right to
expect; but as the minds of the cadets were now
occupied with other things he did not think it was
then the time to ask them to listen to a sermon.
He could say that he felt a sincere interest in the
institution in which they were assembled, that day.
He felt a patriotic interest in it, and he also felt an
interest in it from his knowledge of the professors,-
and knowing also the zeal and ability. with which
they conducted their studies, and he rejoiced at the

and by letting in th 3 light of Christianity
that the gross darkness which covered that country
might be dispersed. Those gentlemen who were
about to depart would have to bear an important
part—not that they were to interfere in any way
with the native or revolting superstitions, with
whatever distress they might witness them, as that
duty must be left to those who were to teach.
But there -were two modes by which that object
might be advanced. The one was direct
teaching ; the other was by their example,
which was almost as • important as their reli-
gion. One thing was quite certain, that it
would be rain to introduce Christianity unless
the natives could see the objects of Christianity.
Ile trusted, therefore, that those who were about
to leave this country for india would carry with
them the prinuiple, and illustrate by their own con-
duct that they not only professed but practised the
principles of Christianity. (Cheers.) He hoped
that in India as fellow-subjects—and glad should
lie be when they could say their fellow Christians
—they would let their light shine before men, and
by the practice of their holy religion glorify the
Lord and Father of all. (Cheers )
The following sand models were exhibited :—I.
Detached fort, forming part of the proposed new
fortifications of Ant werp, described by sub-officers
Scton and Tickell. 11. Fort Rowner, one of the
five forts west of Gosport lines, described by Sub-
officers Twemlow and F. Clark. Scale for both
models, four feet to an inch.
The exhibition of drawings by gentleman cadets
fully maintained its character. The first prize was
awarded to Mr. G. Brown, for a drawing in water-
colours from a plain photor,"raph__of a painting of
the taking of the Malakoff, by Horace Vernet. The
colouring and execution were both alike creditable
to the artist. The second prize was gained by Mr.
A. Swinton, for two landscapes. The third prize
was presented to Mr. H. Smith, for some water-
colour landscapes • and the fourth prize was given
to Mr. W. Broadfoot, for several productions cle-
verly worked out. The photography prize was
awarded to Mr. F. Clarke.
Military Drawing and Surveying—The first
prize in military drawing was awarded to Mr. A.
Swinton, for a well-executed drawing of a portion
of the island of Hong Kong.; the second to Mr. H.
S. Hutchinson, for an almost equally creditable
plan and sketch of the fortress of Sagunto, in Spain,
and the adjacent country. In the third term Mr.
W. Shepherd received the prize for a well-finished
drawing of Tarragona, the prize in the second term
being awarded to Mr. W. B roadfoot, whose drawings
were much admired. Among other specimens of art
exhibited in this department, the following deserve
special notice.:—A portion of the Crimea, includ-
ing Balaklava, by Mr. Bruce Scton ; Tarragona, by
Mr. S. Clarke; and the same subject in different
aspects, by Mr. Glass and Mr. Saward ; a well-exe-
cuted drawing of an island, from a model, by Mr.
Torrikins ; a portion of Hongkong. by Mr. Clayton ;
Cape Town and Table Mountain, by Mr. H. C.
Smith; a survey of a portion of the county of
Surrey ; and various topographical delineations of
the country near Croydon and Addiscombe, more or
less creditably executed, all the cadets of the senior
department exhibiting plans of ground surveying
executed by themselves in the field. The prizes for
surveying were awarded in the fourth term to Mr.
Tickell (first) and Mr. Scton (second), and in the
third and second terms to Mr. Toinkins and Mr.
Broadfoot.
The professors in attendance were :—For
!natio —The Rev. John Cape, A.M., the Rev. Alfred
Wrigley, A.M., the Rev. W. 11. Johnstone, M.A.,

—M. Contanneau. Chymistry—Mr. E. Franklin.
The proceedings terminated by a luncheon at the
residence of the Lieutenant-Governor.

LADTERTISEXENT.I—ThorIes Food for Cattle is now ,
beginning to seriously attract the attention of the farmer,
breeder, and feeder of stock. Two years of unremitting
care and attention have enabled its inventor to take high
ground as a benefactor tothese interests ; and notwithstand-
ing the many drawbacks, the malevolent shafts hurled
against it and its probable utility, the food; from its admitted
value, will become a necessity to the agricultaral interest.
Experience has proved, first, that it effects a considerable
saving in the consumption of provender; secondly, that it
produces health and vigour in all animals subjected to its
influence : and lastly, increases in a remarkable degree an
early development of fat. Mr. Thorley, origiu*ting this
singularly a fficacious food, aimed at a compoud calculated
to supersede, to a certain extent, the tedious and expensive
mode then prevailing of fattening stall-fed beasts. la this
he happily succeeded ; and success prompted a very natural
desire to improve upon the invention, so as to make it ap-
plicable to every description of domestic animal. The Eng•
lish farmer was slow to encourage its use, and manifested and
unwillingness to rely upon its efficacy, ying he pos
in the produce of his farm, ample materials whereby to feed
fancesse
and fatten his cattle at a cheaper rate than by the employment
or addition of artificial food. The tests to which this food has
been subjected have proved its perfect admissibility es a cheap
addition to the natural produce of the farm ; inasmuch as in
realised, and rendered marketable in two-thirds of the time
usually consumed in developing fat ; it, therefore, becomes

unprecedented low price of wheat has induced its very gene •
rat use, in preference to any other of the usual articles of
food ; it is, however, much questioned whether wheat is a
nourishing and proper food for the working horse, certainly
it is not for cows or pigs. Mr. Thorley's Foodsi besides
possessing the advantage of greatly invigorating the health
and increasing the physical power of all animals, is a tonic
and gentle stimulant, and when mixed with their other
food, materially assists their digestive powers —a matter of
great consequence, since it is on undoubted fact that the
nourishment contained in their ordinary food is lost, conse-
quent upon the impaired or defective action of the digestive
organs ; it will also be found to be particularly beneficial
in restoring to good working condition horses which have
been over-worked, or become weak from disease, or ar
naturally of a feeble constitution. •In cows its effects are
undoubted, indeed almost marvellous, nearly doubling the
yield of milk and butter, whilst it at the same time enriches
the quality of both. In pigs its fattening qualities are still
more remarkable, displaying in a few weeks its manifest
superiority over every other kind of compound er manu-
factured food adopted in the feeding of swine. such has
been its marked success, that at all our great cattle shows,
Royalty, noblemen, and others who have fed their cattle
en Thorley's Food, have invariably carried off the principal
prizes, whilst cards of commendation have been awarded.
The patronage of Royalty, of our principal nobility, the
clergy, and of our leading agriculturists, must prove a
great incitement
.to this gentleman to pursue his onward
course ; and he may confidently rely, in producing se
highly-favoured a compound, on a contienet;es of such
high end tlistingukhed patronage.,

CONSUL AT MEXIO .-' • ---' : •
•
The Mexican journals, and in particular the
Dianie Official of the 25th and' 30th Oct., received
by the last packet, inforMs us of further excesses
committed by the sa styled Liberals, actually in pos-
session of Vera Cruz, and especially of the very
serious insult offered to Mr. Allsopp, her Majesty's
consul in the city of Tepic :
"As it appears from that journal, the leader,
Coronado, who with his troops occupies the city of
Tepic, under instructions from the Government of
Vera Cruz, ordered Mr. Allsopp to appear before
him, and he required of him to pay over again in
ready money the sum of 11,500 dols., by. him pre-
viously paid as duties on the last ' conducta,'. and
the said gentleman having refused to yield to that
unjust and barbarous demand, he was sent to pri-
son and confined in a dark diingeon, where he was
kept twelve hours, 'deprived even of water and a
chair to sit upon: At the end of that time Ttnjas,
the immediate subordinate' of Coronado, presented
himself to him, and, speaking in language the most
insolent and obscene, told him that he would as lief
shoot a consul as an Indian, and that he had only
come to give him his choke either to pay the money,
that had been demanded pfhitn, or be shot. boson-
sequence thereof, the- friends of Mr. Allsopp, fear-
ing that the threat would be carried into effect,
paid the 11;500 dols. for him, and it was then that
he was set at liberty, but not without his being bound
to furnish security that he would not depart from
from Tepic." The said journal, speaking of the event,
expresses itself tlis—" Such an enormity, the ex-
c!usive work of a bandit belonging to the constitu-
tional forces, merits execration, but, since it might
unjustly fall back upon the whole of the Mexican
family, it becomes our duty to repel the charge, and
to cast it upon the, authors of so great an excess, and
also upon those who, by their toleration . and
example, authorise such violence against the law of
nations. Rojas is a man who, ever since he joined
the cause of the partisans of Ayutla, has wished to
excel his co-reformers in barbarity and iniquity,
and to that end has shot ahead of all in the path of
crime, shielded by the protection extended to him
1-,v the (general-in-Chief of those hordes, Don Santos
ISegollacio. From , him he tool the example of
insulting fOreigners, *wen when they were invested
with a public character, and from hfln he has learnt
to comport himself with effrontery towards his own
party, after bringing down upon Mexicojpst claims
for the ill-conduct observed towards subjects of
another nation. It, therefore, appears to us just
that the stain which„ such conduct entails should
not exiend beyond its anthers. But if this be
rigorous justice, it also appears to us most rational
to call the attention of the whole world to the class
of men the Liberal party protects, and to the man-
ner in which the latter treats foreigners who do not
second the destructive ideas of such party."
And the same journal afterwards adds :--
" Such is the conduct the Constitutionalists ob- •
serve in regard to foreigners ; and they count upon
our not ' being disposed to repeat in this article
a multitude of other facts that had previously
appeared in our columns. Well will it be that
what has happened with Mr. Allsopp, in Tepic, may
be borne in mind in London when examining into
the conduct of the last. British Minister in Mexico,
Mr. Otway, whose principal crime, in the eyes of
his accusers, consisted, as it is said, in having ob-
served every consideration towards the Supreme
Government, refusing to view, in any other charac-
ter than that of a horde of vandals, the movers and
followers of the revolution. Reviewing what pre-
cedes. persons informed of tho manner in which
Mr. Otway has been treated may judge of the jus-
tice with which his detractors have proceeded, and
of the necessity that exists fur her Majesty's Go-
vernment, insulted in the person of her Consul at
Tepic, Mr. Allsopp, for. following up the ideas of
Mr. Otway, adopting energetic measures with a
view to chastise the culpable parties, and cause
itself to be respected."

CLOSE OF THE INQUIRY.

The commissioners met again yesterday at
No. 8, Fludyer-street, Westminster—Mr. Vaughan
presiding.
Mr. F. W. Mount was the first .witness called.
He said he appeared for Mr. Julian Bernard. He
was Mr. Bernard's solicitor, and he attended for the
purpose of assigning an excuse for Mr. Bernard not
appearing before the commissioners. Mr. Bernard
was too unwell to leave his bed, as would be proved
by his medical attendant, who was then in the room.
Mr. James Duncan WaS then called, and said he
was a physician, and resided at 18, Henrietta-street,
Covent-garden. He was Mr. Julian Bernard's medical
attendant, and last saw him half an hour ago. He
was in bed at that time. He had been suffering from
boils for the last three weeks. That was the com-
plaint under which he suffered at the time when
witness went before a magistrate and made the affi-
davit which he sent to the commissioners. He (Mr.
Bernard) had been suffering. under the same com-
plaint ever since, and was now suffering under ex-
treme exhaustion. When witness saw Mtn at half-

past two o'clock that day Mr. Bernard declared he
would get up for the purpose- of coming before the
commissioners, and attempted to do so. but sank
back in the bed. He (witness) was of opinion that
if no fresh symptoms set in Mr. Bernard would be
able to appear before the commissionetein abot.t 10
days or a fortnight, but it was impossible in such a
case to give a decided opinion.

Mr. ljonald Nicoll, late M.P., for Frome, came
forward to offer some explanation having reference
to the evidence given by Mr. Rose at the last sitting
of the commissioners, with respect to certain state-
ments made at Gloucester by a witness named Crut-
well regarding the last election for .Frotne ; but the
chairmain said if the commissionemwere to go into
explanations of that sort they would have to pursue
the same course as regarded every election in the
kingdom. If Mr. Nicoll felt aggrieved, he had or-
gans of publicity open to him to set himself right
with the public. •
Mr. Vaughan, chairman of the commission, then
announced that the inquiry wt.s concluded, as far as
regarded the examination of witnesses. The corn.
!nisi:loners would meet again at the same place at
three o'clock on Wednesday next; but it would be
only for the consideration of their report, andvotild
be a private meeting.

METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORKS.

A mectin,,,,, of this Board was held yesterday, in
the Council-chamber, Guildhall. The president,
J. Thwaites, Esq., look the chair, at 12 u clock.

The cash statement for the current week shows
a total general balance 01:X399,946 138.

MILE END OLD TOWN.

The Board receiVed a deputation from this die-
trict, to present, a memorial on the subject of the
precept from the Board to the vestry. Mr. Snow
introduced the deputation. and Mr. Newton ad-
dressed the Board, urging that it was impossible to
raise tha money specified in the precept, and com-
plained that the vestry had been misled by commu
nications re6eived from the Board upon the subject.
The memorial was received, and after explana-
tions by Mr. Woolrych, was ordered to be entered
on the minutes, and the matter was referred to the
Finance Committee for consideration. •
REPORT FROM TIIE FINANCE Comurr

A report was brought up from this committee re-
commending—That as by the recent appointment
of a legal adviser, and the selection of a clerk of the
Board from the existing staff of officers, are-arrange-
ment of the clerk's department becomes necessary,
and, as a consequence, an alteratioh will take place
in the duties to he performed by the undermen-
tioned officers, the salaries of those officers be raised
as below stated, the total increase being £lso—
E. Cresy, from £350 to £4OO ; Mr. J. E. Wake-
field, from £lBO to £220; Mr. C. F. Popock, from
£l5O to £180; Mr. W. P. Andrews, from £l2O to
£l5O. And that the resolutions of the Board of
the 15th and 22d February, 1856, and 23d April,
1858, in relation to the salaries and appointment of
clerks in the clerk's department, be so far varied as
to admit of such increase, .respectively. That the
sums specified in the statement submitted to the
committee, amounting in the whole to £1,656 Os.,
be paid.
Mr. DALTON, who brought up the report, said
that he considered it rather premature, as the order
issued by the Board as to the salaries of all the
officers of the Board had not yet been considered
by the committee. He would, therefore, with the
permission of the Board, move that the matter go
back to the committee for further consideration.
