7HE VICTORIA CROSS.

(From the Gazette of last evening.)
WAR-OFFICE, AUG. 13.
The Queen has been graciously pleased to signify her in-
tention to confer the decoration of the Victoria Cross on the
undermentioned officers and soldiers, whose claims to the
same have been submitted for her Majesty's approval, on
account of acts of bravery performed by them in China, on
the occasion of the assault and capture of the North Taku
Fort on the 21st of August, 1860, as recorded against their
several names, viz. :
Lieutenant (now Captain) Robert Montresor Rogers
44th Regiment (now of the 90th Regiment), Private Johi
M'Dougall, ;,44th Regiment, and Lieut. Edmund Henr)
Lenon, 67th Regiment—For distinguished gallantry in
swimming the ditches and entering the North Taku Fort
by an embrasure during the assault. They were the first
of the English established on the walls of the fort, which
they entered in the order in which their names are here re..
corded, each one being assisted by the others to mount the
embrasure.

Lieutenant (now Captain) Nathaniel Burslem, 67th Re-
giment (now of the 60th Regiment), and Private Thomas
Lane, 67th Regiment—For distinguished gallantry in
swimming the ditches of the North Taku Fort, and perse-
vering in attempting during the assautt, and before the
entrance of the fort had been effected by any one, to en-
large an opening in the wall, through which they even-
tually entered, and, in doing so, were both severely
wounded.

Ensign (now Lieutenant) John Worthy Chaplin, 67th
Regiment (now of the 100th Regiment)—For distinguished
gallantry at the North Taku Fort. This officer was carry-
ing the Queen's Colour of the regiment, and first planted
the colours on the breach made by the storming party,
assisted by Private Lane, of the 67th Regiment, and subse-
quently on the cavalier of the Fort, which he was the
first to mount. In doing this, he was severely wounded.
Hospital Apprentice Arthur Fitzgibbon, Indian Medical
Establishment--For having behaved with great coolness
and courage at the capture of the North Taku Fort on the
21st Aug., 1860. On the morning of that day he accom-
panied a wing of the 67th Regiment, when it took
up a position within 500 yards of the Fort. Having
quitted cover, he proceeded, under a very heavy fire, to
attend to a dhoolie bearer, whose wound he had been
directed to bind up; and, while the regiment was advanc-
ing under the enemy's fire, he ran across the open to attend
to another wounded man, in doing which he was himself
severely wounded.

SHOCKING MURDER AT IROME.

FROME, TUESDAY.

•
Mr. Bruges Fry, county coroner, opened an in-
quiry to-day into the circumstances attending the
death of Uriah Greenland, arYed 24, who was mur-
dered by his uncle Byard Greenland, as recorded
in this paper y.:sterday.

The prisoner was not present, having been re-
manded yesterday to Shepton Mallet gaol by order
of the magistrates. This circumstance occasioned
strong comment on the part of the coroner and jury,
and it was ultimately decided to adjourn the inquiry
in order to allow the prisoner to hear the evidence
adduced against him.
During the examination of Millgrove, P.C. Cooke
arrived in the room with*the important information
that the handle of the knife had been found, but the
blade was broken and has not yet been found.
The knife handle was then put into tt:e hand of
the witness, and he said that, although he could
not swear it was the one he had seen in the hand of
the prisoner, it was very much like it.
Mr. Benjamin Mallam, surgeon, said, on the
morning of Sunday last, at 10 minutes past 12 a.m.,
I was e tiled up by the last witness, and requested
to go to Murtree.gate, as a man had been stabbed.
I went immediately and arrived at half-past 12.
The deceased was alone in a sitting posture quite
dead, but warm. Mr. Crane, the gatekeeper, came
up with a lantern, and I then examined the de-
ceased's breast, and found a wound. Farmer
Beauchamp's son came up with a horse and cart.
From what I had heard, I asked him to take the
horse out of the cart, and proceed to Buckland, and
tell the policeman there that a man had been mur-
dered by Byard Greenland, and to arrest him. I
sent Millgrove back to Frome for a policeman.
When the officer arrived I left the &ceased in his
charge, and went down to the gate and examined
all the scythes and reaphooks with a magnify-
ing glass, but found nothing but dry dust on
any of them. I then had a pair of trucks and
a hurdle on which I had the deceased laid and
brought to his house. In consequence of a tele-
graphic message received from the coroner yester-
day, I made a post-mortem examination of the body
at five o'clock, 42 hours after death. I found an
incised wound five-eighths of an inch long, on the
left side of the chest, between the second and third
ribs, an inch and a half from the breast bone. The
bag of the heart and the upper portion of the heart,
called the antic arch, were pierced through. This
was the cause of the death. The knife passed
through soft parts only, so that there was not suffi-
cient resistance to break the blade from the handle.
Th© only other witness examined was Mr. (lane,
the gatekeeper, who repeated the testimony he
gave yesterday.
The Coroner then adjourned the inquiry
till to-
morrow at ten o'clock, P. C. Watts being instruc-
ted to communicate to the magistrates the wishes
of the Coroner and Jury, that the prisoner should
have an opportunity of being present at theinvesti-
gation.
Diligent search is being made by the police for
the blade of the knife. •

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-Aug. 13.

CLERKENWELL.--ATTEMPTED MURDER.—
A respectable young man, named Charles William
Jeffs, 30 years of age, residing at No. 40, Acton-
street, Gray's Inn-road, and described as a reader
on the Express newspaper, was placed at the bar
of the Clerkenwell Police-court before Mr. D'Eyn-
court, charged with cutting and wounding Francis
Cossum, with intent to do him grievous bodily harm.
at Exmouth-street, Clerkenwell.
The case created a large amount of excitement,
owing to the circumstances under which the
offence was committed. The accused was partially
dressed in a volunteer uniform, and his belt and
bayonet were produced in court. His left hand
was bandaged and his right arm was in splints.
The prosecutor, a quiet.lcoking young fellow, had
his head entirely wrapped in hospital bandages,
and there were marks of other injuries on his body.
The prosecutor, who was accommodated with a
seat, having been sworn, said—My name is Francis
Cossum, and I live at 3, Guildford-place, Bagnigge-
weils-road. I am a mathematical instrument maker.
I know the prisoner, but he is no relation of mine.
On Monday evening I was passing his house, and

the Est until his death, or until a casualty shall occur among
the regimental Colonels, in either of which cases his name
will be removed, no promotion being made in his room. On
another casualty occurring among the regimental Colonels,
should the name then at the bead of the list of Lieutenant-
Colonels be that of an officer who has not accepted the an-
nuity, he will succeed, as usual, to the Colonel's allowance,
and promotions will be made in succession.
The promotion in succession to the Lieut.-Colonels who
retire under this scheme will be made in the proportion of
one to every two of such retirements ; on the other hand,
every vacancy created among the Majors will be followed
by promotion in the usual course.
Should the number of Regimental Field-officers retiring
on these terms fall short of 300 in the three Presidencies,
the Government of India will be authorized to offer an-
nuities of £l2O per annum, in addition to the pensions to
which they may be entitled, to so many of the Regimental
Captains of the three Presidencies as may suffice to make
up that number, the offer to them to be madein succession
according to length of service, reckoning from the date of
the first commission, and to be cmfined to those of or above
25 years' service.
The Regimental Lieutenant-Colonels and Majors of the
Cavalry and Infantry who have elected for service with the
new Line Regiments or in the Staff Corps will have the
option of retiring upon the terms now offered.
It is to be distinctly understood that this is a final arrange-
ment, and that no further proposals connected with schemes
for the retirement of officers of the Indian Service will be
entertained.

Officers of the Indian Armies on furlough in this coun-
try desirous of retiring from the service on the terms now
offered should address their applications to the Secretary to
Government, in the Military Department, of the Presi-
dency to which they belong.

NOTICE.
INDIA-OFFICE, AUGUST 12.
In consequence of some misapprehensions being under
stood to exist as to the interpretation of the 98th paragraph
of the General Order of the Governor-General of India,
dated 10th April last, quoted in the margin,t it is notified,
for general information, that, upon a reconsideration of the
order, and of the instructions upon which it was based, her
Majesty's Secretary of State for India in Council has pointed
out to the Government of India that all officers whom that
Government may not consider fit for employment are to be
dealt with under clause 7 of the Staff Corps Warrant, but
that another rule must be laid down and followed in the case
of officers who are perfectly fit for employment, but who,
from circumstances of one kind or another, may be out of
employment; for example, those who, in consequence of
having overstayed the prescribed limit of absence, with re-
tention of appointment, may find themselves on their return
to India out of employment.
Such officers, on their return to India, will be placed on
the rate of pay specified for their respective ranks in the
Staff Warrant, for officers while required to remain in India
—and they will retain this rate of pay for a year, before the
expiration of which period it is expected an opportunity will
have arisen for placing them in some suitable appointment.
Should no opportunity occur within the year of placing a
perfectly qualified officer, returning from furlough, in a
situation suited to him, the Governments in India will be
authorised to continue the Indian rate of pay until a suit-
able opening can be found for his employment.
Officers will not be placed on half .pay except under the
operation of one or other of the two clauses 7 and 10 of the
Staff Corps Warrant.
The Government of India have been directed to modify
the 98th paragraph of the General Order accordingly.

t Officers of the Staff Corps under the rank of Major-Gene-
ral whom the Governments of India may not see fit to employ
in any capacity, will not be allowed to draw pay for more
tnan four years, of which one year may be on the Indian
scale, and three years on the scale fixed for officers " out of
India," after which period they will be placed on half-pay,
or on pension, according to the scale of their rank, if entitled
thereto.

ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRWEA ;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.
" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs ns, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrheea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.

" We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

IMPORTANT TO OWNERS OF HORSES.-
After long experience, deep researches into chymistry,
by the aid of costly machinery, I have discovered the means
whereby oats, beans, and oilcake may be entirely dispensed
with in the feeding of horses and cattle. I have now invented
a compound meal, composed of locust beans, Indian corn,
linseed, &c., at £lO per ton, which is equal in value to £24
worth of oats, beans, or any other feeding material in the
market. Two quarts of this compound meal, weighing 31bs.,
at the cost of 5d., mixed with a peck of chopped hay, is a feed
fer a draught horse, and superior in every respect to three
quarterns of oats, costing 7d. 14 barrels weigh net 1 ton 1
cwt.. at 16s. per cwt., £l6 16s. not oaah. froe dolivorod by my
own waggons to any station in London. Nothing less than
21 cwt. sold at the manufactory, and orders must be accom-
panied with cheques crossed, made payable to the inventor,

THE STADE DUES.

Negotiations continue for the purchase of the
Stade dues, which, when capitalised, will, it is
estimated, be worth 3,100,000 thalers. It is pro-
posed that two-thirds of this sum shall be paid by
Hamburg and England, and that the remaining
third of 1,033,333 thalers shall be divided among
the other States interested in the suppression of
the dues. With some of those States, that arrange-
ment may present, if not difficulties, at least
embarrassing conseuences. The Journal de Frank-
fort contains the following remarks on the subject :

" The Hanoverian Government is at this moment
in an awkward position. The list of the States
among which the third million for the redemption
of the State dues is to be divided—a list drawn
up by Hanover herself—mentions separately Sar-
dinia, Tuscany, and the Two Sicilies. Of course,
Sardinia, if called upon, will not refuse to pay the
quotas allotted to Tuscany and the Two Sicilies;
but; by accepting such payment, Hanover incurs
the risk of indirectly recognising the revolutionary
annexations in Italy.
.Thz legitimist principles of
the Hanoverian GovernMent are thus in opposition
to the advantages which its Treasury may claim in
a financial point of view. Many people are very
curious to see how the Hanoverian Government
will get out of the dilemma."

tol Rifle Volunteers and an equal number of the 2d
Glocestershire (Stroud) Corps, The Stroud men
were the victors by three points, but ten of their
number were marksmen, while only three of the
Bristol Corps had attained that distinction. The
return match is to come off at Stroud.

On Friday evening the oath of allegiance was
taken in the mould loft by the three newly formed
compauies composing the 12th Devon (Dockyard)
Artillery Volunteers. Captain Commandant Peake
(the master builder) introduced the officers and men,
who are fine ablebodied fellows. After the cere-
mony they were addressed by Port Admiral Sir
Houston Stewart, Admiral Superintendent Sir
Thomas Pasley, Mr. Ryder, the Mayor of Devon-
port, and Major. General Hutchinson, Commander
of Forces in the West. There was a considerable
attendance of ladies.

The 2d West Riding of Yorkshire (Bradford)
Artillery Volunteers assembled at their drill room
on Saturday afternoon last, in full uniform, with
side arws and 'catbines, by older of Lieutenant
Clarke, commanding, and, preceded by the band,
marched to the Lancashire and Yorkshire Rsilway
Station, Bradford, whence they escorted two 32-
pounder ordnance guns, furnished by the Govern-
ment for the use of the corps, to a new battery
which had been prepared for their reception in
Peel-park, about a mile from the town. Each gun,
with a colour attached, was placed on a waggon.
drawn by three horses, and the route taken was
through several of the main streets of the town,
which were crowded with spectators. On reaching
the park the guns were placed in position and fired
repeatedly.
On Thursday the Gateshead Rifle Volunteers,
and on Friday the South Shields Rifle Volunteers,
underwent a most satisfactory inspection by Major
Harman, who at the conclusion of the inspection
highly complimented the corps on their soldierly
appearance and upon their proficiency under arms.
The gallant Major urged the importance of a
thorough knowledge of position drill.
The members of the Rifle Volunteer Corps raised
at Queenshead, in the West Riding, were sworn
in a few days ago.

place on Polish territory under the domination of
either of those Powers, it is probable they would

the above-named Powers."

ROME, FEB. 22.

The official Giornale di Roma declares that the
Pontifical Government declines the responsibility of
the present crisis which the pamphlet of M. de La
Guerronniere throws upon it, and adds that that
pamphlet is written with the same duplicity as the
former French pamphlets on the Roman question.
The article concludes thus :—" The allocution
delivered by his Holiness in January, 1860, and
the allocutions of a more recent date, and also the
despatch dated Feb. 29, 1860, addressed by Cardinal
Antonelli to the Papal Nuncio at Paris, Mgr. Sac-
coni, have sufficiently proved with whom lies the
responsibility of the late deplorable events."

211 E ARMY.

The Duke of Cambridge having announced his
intention of holding a review of the troops at the
garrison of Chatham on Saturday, orders were
issued at a late hour the previous evening for the
entire available force to be under arms and formed
in review order on Chatham Lines at 11 o'clock, by
which hour his Royal Highness was expected to
arrive, 15 rounds of blank cartridge being served
out to each man. Notwithstanding the unfavour-
able state of the weather on Saturday morning, the
rain falling without intermission, the troops were
formed according to orders. Shortly after 10
o'clock, however, a telegraphic despatch was re-
ceived at the garrison from the Horse Guards
announcing that his Royal Highness, in conse-
quence of the unfavourable weather, would post-
pone the review until a future day.
A general order, promulgated from the Horse
Guards some time since, has been reissued by com-
mand of the Duke of Cambridge, announcing that
his Royal Highness, having had under his consi-
deration the reports of commanding officers on the
benefits derived by the soldiers from a knowledge
of the bayonet exercise, as taught by the late Mr.
Angelo, is pleased to direct that every regiment be
instructed according to that system. General
officers commanding districts and brigades are
requested to state in their half-yearly reports
whether the bayonet exercise has been taught, and
the intended effect produced ; whether, in their
opinion, it has tended to supple the limbs and to
set up the soldier, and give him confidence in the
use of his arm.
Deputy-Assistant-Commissary-General Tubby
has assumed the direction of the commissariat
department at the camp at Colchester, vice Deputy-
Assistant-Commissary-General Ward, who will
enter on the 4uties of a similar appointment at
Guernsey on the Ist of March.
A presentation of a handsome silver-mounted
cane was made at Woolwich on Saturday, by the
non-commissioned officers of the sth company of
Royal Engineers, to Colour-Sergeant John Camp•
bell, as a token of respect on his retirement from
the service and acceptance of the appointment of
Sergeant-Instructor of the 15th (Bourne) Lincoln-
shire Volunteers.

It is reported ttt Devonport that the military
guard doing duty in the dockyard is to be abolished
as unnecessary.
The System of marching a strong guard into
Portsmouth Dockyard, and posting sentries day and
night in different parts of the yard, has been abo-
ished, and for the future the presence of the mili-
bry in the dockyard will only be required during
the hours convict labour is employed. For this pur-
pose a picket, consisting of 1 captain,l subaltern, l
Tye rgeant, 2 corporals, and 30 privates will be fur-
visited from the troops in garrison, and march in to
the dockyard guardroom, where they will be held
in readiness in the event of their services being re-
quired. The only sentries posted will be one at the

KAHN on MARRIAGE.—A new and
entirely re-written Edition (the 4t,th) of this celebrated
Treatise, with new Steel Plates, Woodcuts, ac., is now ready.
The object of the work is not to maintain any particular
hypothesis, but to enable every one to understand for himself
the structure and functions of the organs concerned in the
fulfilment of the physical obligations of the married state;
to acquaint him with the consequences arising from excesses ;
to prevent unnecessary misapprehension from unfounded
fears, and to indicate, when those fears are well founded, the
means of speedy relief. The work is not crowded with the
technicalities of ordinary professional books, nor does it pre-
sent the crudeness which characterises the so-called "popular
works" on the subject.
