THE DISMISSAL OF VOLUNTEER OFFICERS.—An
explanation of the late cashiering of fourteen mutinous
officers in the 48th Middlesex Rifle Volunteers has been
furnished by " One who knows the facts." The writer
says that there has existed for some time in the corps a
combination of a very objectionable character, headed by
an officer who hoped to supply LieutenSnt-Colonel Cruik-
shank's place. Under the influence of this cabal the com-
manding officer was insulted. He was ready to resign if
he was refunded certain moneys he had advanced, but
this the junior officers refused. Lieutenant-Colonel Cruik-
shank placed the matter in the hands of the authorities,
and all who signed the memorial were cashiered. The
commanding officer interceded for some of them without
avail, and found that he could not recommend them again,
as they were incapable of ever again holding a commission
in her Majesty's service. It is said that there will be no
difficulty in replacing the officers.
A marriage will slim. tiy take place between
Colonel Towneley and the Hon. Mrs. Stonor, widow of the
Hon. Thomas Stoner.

paralysis, and died soon afterwards. He was the seventh
baronet, and as the possessor of large landed estates and

great sportsman. He is succeeded by _his soup Charles
Ulu Hubert., born in 1858.

rpate result would be that foreigners would supplant us in

shewed that the men hanged at Manchester were hanged,
net for renianism, but for the murder of a policeman,
and that the charge against the person in his custody
did not at all affect the nature of their crime ;
for that .if he bad been an Orangeman, and
his friends had in like Manner killed the constable, they
would have been tried and condemned, not as Orangeman,
but as murderers. having referred to the Clerkenwell
atrocity, he shewed that while all loyal citizens and bene-
volent persons must execrate such an act, justice and sound
policy required, not that we should ignore the complaint's
of those who promoted these outrages, but that we should
diligently investigate the causes of Irish discontent, and
that all political parties should unite to remove every real
grievance. As a Protestant, he felt ashamed that his
religion should be endowed as the national faith of a
country where nine out of every ten regarded it as heresy
and supported another Church. Referring to Popery,
he said that the danger was not in Rome, but within the
camp of professed Protestantism—that if any number
of persons preferred candles and crosses and gorgeous vest-
ments, no one bad a right to disturb them ; only they
should pay for their own arrangements, and pot teach and
practise what was contrary to the system under which they
sought shelter. The best way to meet error was not by
persecution, but by argument and Persuasion. Meanwhile
