The British volunteer corps at it ex
ist to-tln.v Is 1 he result of an enlist
ment act of 1800, the act, in turn, beliiR
the fruit of n fear of iuvation in thut
year. The volunteers number roughly
2M.OO0 men, cost the goveriiiiit'iit n
trifle over $3,0110,000 a year, and none
of them ever hus seen service. 1 hat- is
to say, the volunteers u a body have
existed only since lSttO, but there are
two or three regiments which time
back far, indeed, notably the Victoria
' rides and the duke of Cumberland's
sharpshooters, which were in being
when William IV. was prince of Wales.
Older by far, however, is the Honorable
Artillery couipauy, which received a
. visit from its American offspring, the
Aacient and Honorable Artillery com
pany, of Boston, last year, aud which
will repay the compliment by making a
trip to the United States this year.
As he will be a regular when in the
field, the British volunteer will be treat
ed as one. He will receive "Tommy'i"
pay, which is about "30 cents a day and
found." He will eat Mr. Atkins' ra
tionsa pound of tinned meat and
half a pound of fresh meat, when it can
be had, fresh bread or crackers he will
call them - "biscuits" and sugar, tea
and coffee, wheil possible. ' His kit,
blankets and great coat he will furnish
.himself, but the government will trans
port him to the icene of action.
Friends and advocates of the volun
teers and yeomanry say that, those
branches of the service have been dis
couraged, sueered at and generally sat
en by the war office ever siuce thsir es
tablishment, and that their acceptance
for service now may be regarded as a
great victory, giving ta Lord Lands
4owne the credit for the new order of
things. An officer connected with the
war office told me,a however, that the
kubbub was entirely without reason,
that all the uoise was made by a few
malcontents, and that no change what
ever had taken place under Lord Lands
downe's ndministration so far as the
volunteers were concerned. On the
other hand, people who have no par
ticular interest in the volunteers say
that their being permitted to take part
in the war at this time is a direct insult
to the militia.
At any rate, it can never be said that
the volunteers, to whom was given that
"chance, were slow to accept it, us a
score or more of commanding officers
throughout London and the provinces,
who are being harassed to desperation
by every individual member of their
commands, can testify. Men have al
most taken to figuring ou their chances
for going with paper and pencil. For
instance, I have heard volunteers say :
"There are 1,000 men in my battalion,
aad there will be 110 chosen; that gives
me about one chance in ten. Then my
record for marksmanship is so many
points, and marksmanship is going to
be the deciding test, and the genera!
average is about so much," etc. When
the fortunate 110 "fortunate" is the
rerun teers' word are told off there is
-going to be actual bitterness.
The venerable organization of hon
orable artillery and yeomanry was
formed by Henry VIII., in 1SU7 for, as
the king quaintly put it, "the beitere-
encrease. of the defense of this our
realm." This company, then, was
formed more than a full century before
any other existing corps; it was in gar
rison at Tilbury when Drake Inet Phil
ip's Armada; it fought under Crom
well in the .civil wars and was almost
wiped out by the great plague. Later,
half of its barracks was destroyed in
the London fire. Since its beginning it
has taken part in all public ceremonials
' and all crownings of sovereigns of
England. .
The Yeomanry, 10.000 of whom will
lie selected for service in South Africa,
slates back as a force much further than
the volunteers or militia. The Yeo
manry consists entirely of cavalry, and
ita members are mostly country gentle
men who are in the saddle much of the
lime. They are obliged to furnish their
own mounts and equipment, and -are
drilled much more severely and fre
quently than either of the other two
branches of volunteers. Their total is
11.900, and they cost the government
075,000 annually. The first detach
ment of 1,000 sailed on January 15.
