May we suggest to SirJORS CARRINGTON to make a determined effort to get more guns and better guns. A seven pounder of 200 lbs. Is a very poor gun In these days, and General BLACK is so well disposed towards the Corps that it will not be difficult to get from him all that is really needed to make the Volunteers a practically useful element in the Colonlal defence. We commend to the public generally the useful article in the Camp Gazette, headed the Navy League and the Volunteers, It emphasises the neces- sities of Hongkong defence.

Certainly the situation at home is cal culated to raise the martial ardour of our Volunteers and will, we believe, tend to produce an increased interest in the various drills and manoeuvres undertaken at this year's Camp. Lord ROSEHRRY's speech at Perth has a most warlike flavour about it and shows that his opinion, and presumably that of his party also, is that we should stand firm and refuse absolute- ly to discuss the Fashoda question with France, being well aware
