VOLUNTEER INTELLIGENCE.
The North Dunedin Rifle Volunteers paraded at their hall, Water of Leith, last evening. The following was the parade state: Captain M‘Nab, Lieutenant Myers, 1 color-sergeant, 4 sergeants, 1 lance-ser-geant, 4 corporals, 1 bugler, and 31 privates; total, 44. A special meeting of the company was held after parade for the purpose of electing a lieutenant, and ex-Lieutenant R. A, Johnston was elected with a very considerable amount of enthusiasm. The company afterwards adjourned to Host Cummings’s hotel, where the health of the officers was drunk with musical honors. The officers having suitably replied, the meeting broke up. Six hundred Volunteers leave AVellington by the Hinemoa to-night for the encampment at New Plymouth.
