THE VOLUNTEERS’ INTERNATIONAL MATCH.
As will be recollected we announced some short time back that a match had been arranged between two representatives of England and two of Scotland, owing to the international match at the Easter meeting of;the Rifle Association falling through. Messrs Fox and Chapman were chosen to represent England, and Messrs Paton and Cameron Scotland. The ranges were 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 yards. The representatives of Scotland, as will be seen from the ann-xed scores, were the victors by 14 points, tte respective totals being—Scotland, 207 ; England, 193. The following were the scores made :
