“The screw steamer ‘‘Antelope,” already celebrated as having made one of the quickest passages on record between Rio Janeiro and England, builder at Birkenhead, has been matched for a race to Australia and back to England, doub- ling both Capes, with the renowned New Brunswick built ship ‘‘Marco Polo.” The latter ship has now world wide reputation for her late extraordinary passage out to and from Australia to England.”

Tue Camp aT Mitton.—Sergeant J. Allan arrived in the city on Saturday night, and reports great improvement in discipline, drill, ete., in the camp at Milton. The officers are doing ever;thing in their power to bring the volunteers up in a line with regular soldiers, and their efforts in this respect have been heartily reciprocated by the latter, who seem equally anxious toimprove themselves, The men have now passed through position drill and are now marching in battalion. The Sergeant, who is an old soldier, describes them as able-bodied intelligent men, and a credit to their Island home. They take great pains to present a clean and tidy appearance,

and are exceedingly orderly. The Sergeant fays that since he joined the camp, e has witnessed no sign of drunk-

enness amongst any of the men. To the officers in charge Sergeant Allan at tributes great praise. No better class of Officers could be found anywhere. The men,

he says, take a pride in them, a pride which is well deserved, Staff-Sergt. Campbell, an experienced non commissioned officer of the regular service, formerly of the 17th regiment of infantry, has done all in his power to bring the men to a high state of discipline, and his efforts bave been in a manner rewarded. Efforts are being made to have a display on Thursday evening next, bonfires will be lighted and speeches made by several of the leading military gentlemen present. The Engineers are hard at work, and under the supervision of Lieut. Macdougall, who, the Sergeant says, is a good practical officer, are doing exceedingly well. They have constructed a fire place for cooking purposes which cannot be excelled. Field works have also been thrown up and Other engineering work done, The Svurgeant rvturued ty vamp this affernogn.

As the train on the Intercolonial Railway was vear St. Anne’s, Quebec, a few days ago, a passenger in the smoking car jamped off the train while it was running at the rate of 25 miles an hour. The train was stopped and the ur fortunate man, whose name, so far, has not been learned. was picked up with a fear- ful gash on his temple and other facial injuries. | He was removed to the depot, and at last accounts was in a poor way for recovery. The reason given for his jumping from the cars is that he thought to reach home by a short cut.— Moncton Timea.
