A Scotch Wrangle.— The Scotch small-bore experts seem 

 to have given up the rifle for the pen, and in place of throw- 

 ing bullets are pegging away with billets. It is a great pother 

 about nothing ; a sort of general attack of "bee in the bonnet" 

 among the wrangling Scots, and the sooner they stop their 

 criminations and recriminations and get to work in the rifle 

 field the better it will be for their chances of ever holding the 

 Centennial trophy. We have already, in our issue of the 1 (it h 

 ult., published the Scotcli protest; in explanation of this 

 comes the following communications to Geo. S. Schermer- 

 horn, Jr., Esq., Secretary N. It. A. : 



Wvvis Lodge, Evantos, Boss-siiiue, Scotland, Aug. 16, 1877. 



Sir — I inclose a copy of a letter I have to-day written to Mr. 

 Renton, Honorary Secretary of the National Bitto Club of Soot- 

 land, of which club I am the patron. My letter upeaks for itself. 

 If Mr. Renton's letter has appeared in any of (ho American news- 

 papers. I venture to ask yon to have my letter to Mr. Ronton pub- 

 lished in them also, as I do not wish the riflemen of America to 

 suppose that Mr. Ren ton's letter expresses the fooling of the rifle- 

 men of Scotland. I have the honor to be your very faithful ser- 

 vant, (Signed) Horatio Ross. 



G. 8. Schermerhotw, Esq., Sec. N. R. A. of America. 



WvvisboncE, Eyanton, Ross- shire, Aug. 1G, 1877. 

 To R. Renton, Esq.. Hon. Sec. of the Nat. RifXE Club o* Scot- 

 land : 



Dear Sir — My attention has been directed to a letter which you 

 have recently addressed to tbe Secretary of the National Rifle As- 

 sociation of America, aud which has been published in the Scotch 

 papers. You state that it had bee.n submitted to and approved by 

 the Council of the National Rifle Club of Scotland. I have read it 

 willi much regret, and, I may add, surprise. A party of gentle- 

 men., under (he direction of Sir Henry Halford, representing the 

 riflemen of England, Scotland and Ireland, are about to start for 

 America for the purpose of shooting a match with the riflemen of 

 thatj country. You acting, as you state, with the approbation of 

 the Council' of the National Rifle Club of Scotland, have forwarded 

 a letter to the Secretary of the American Association, and have 

 ventured to express a doubt as to these gentlemen acting impar- 

 tially to the riflemen of Scotland iu the event of their being suc- 

 cessful in their match with the Americana. 



I disapprove of your letter so much that I can no longer permit 

 my name to appear in the list of members of the club, of which I 

 am the patron and a life member, and in which I have always 

 taken a lively interest. I, therefore, with great regret, request 

 you to scratch my name out. As I have no doubt your letter will 

 appear in the American newspapers, I shall send a copy of this 

 letter to the Secretary of the National Rifle Association of America. 



I am, yours very truly, (Signed) Hobatio Ross. 



I inclose a copy of my letter to Mr. Schermerhorn, Secretary of 

 the American Rifle Association. 



On the 21st, R. Renton, the Secretary of Die Scottish [Na- 

 tional Club, published the following in the Glasgow papers ; 



No. 67 West Regent Street, Glasgow, August 20, 1877. 



Dear Sir. — I am in receipt of yours of the Kith inst., and copy 

 of letter sent by you to the Secretary of the American Rifle As- 

 sociation, but previous to receiving it I read it in the Glasgow 

 Herald. Before answering your letters I would have called a 

 meeting of council; but seeing your letter was dispatched simul- 

 taneously to mo, to the papers and to America, it appears urgent, 

 and I hasten to reply — not so much as Honorary Secretary, but, 

 as well as yourself and many others, as a life member of the 

 club, and, besides, a member of council since its lirst formation. 



Remembering your correspondence la^t year on behalf of Sir 

 Homy Halford and his proposed British team, I am not so much 

 surprised at your present letter as at the delay of your friends 

 in directing your attention to the protest. As patron of the 

 club, your position, of course, is purely honorary, and was 

 awarded you by the council on my suggestion or motion as a 

 complimentary recognition of the services of yourself and family 

 to tbe Scottish eight. 



In the protest the council did not desire by entering into de- 

 tails to lend additional weight thereto, but contented themselves 

 by simply stating it and then reason for doing so, and had you 

 been an active member perhaps you would not have written the 

 letters before me. You would then have known that previous 

 to the hist annual general meeting of the club a meeting of coun- 

 cil was held, at which their annual report was considered and 

 adjusted; that previous there had been communication with the 

 late Saoto-American team and capta'n regarding the proposed 

 British team competing this year ; that in that annual report the 

 question was treated ; that in it I was instructed, as secretary, 

 to forward to America the protest complained of; that at the 

 annual general meeting of the cluo these instructions were, with 

 only one dissenting voice, unanimously approved of and adopted; 

 that the protest, before being posted, was first submitted to 

 various members of council, and thereafter submitted to a regu- 

 lar meeting, when it was unanimously approved of by those 

 present ; and that since its despatch it haB (in consequence of 

 a letter from an absent member) been reconsidered ac a meet- 

 ing of council, aud again unanimously approved of and adhered 

 to by those present, while four members who were unable to 

 attend also intimated their approval. The protest, therefore, is 

 sent under the instructions of both the council and the club, 

 and its terms are approved of by a considerable majority of the 

 council, even assuming those who have expressed no opinion 

 to ba ftdverse, Tae efeb embriwes ©very BBudl-bore nfle shot of 



any note or pretence, and I cannot, therefore, conceive why you 

 should presume to say to America that tbat protest does not 

 express the opinion of tbe Scottish rills shots, while your desire 

 that they should assume iu its place your simple i$se dixii to 

 the contrary is quite absurd. It might be uuueeeaoary to say 

 more. 



Tho protest is explicit and bears that unless the rights of 

 Scotland to compete hereafter are to he thereby prejudiced, 

 the council have no objections whatever to a British team com- 

 peting, but, on the contrary, would be glad to learn of their 

 succeaB. They have since disclaimed any intention to cast the 

 slightest imputation or insinuation against the National Rifle 

 Association or its council. Bat the same parties are promoting 

 the British team this year who last year maintained that Scot- 

 land waB not invited, aud had no right to compete ; who, though 

 assured by America that national teams, and not a mixed British 

 team, were intended, that Scotland had been invited and had 

 accepted, nevertheless (without in any way acquainting our 

 council) did all in their power, both by 'cable" and letter, to get 

 Scotland excluded from the match ; who, notwithstanding the 

 rules having been so interpreted and acted upon, are still this 

 year, contrary thereto, endeavoring to foist a British team in 

 place of national teams into the match, and who, if successful, 

 will have the entire control of the match next year, in inviting 

 teams and otherwise. Any impartial person knowing this will 

 be able to judge whether our council had reason to fear that 

 the rights of Scotland might thereby be prejudiced. 



Scotland has fought once, and intends to tight again, and, if 

 nocessary, again, till they wit : and the council simply do not 

 wish it to be implied tbat they arc acquiescing in a change of (he 

 rules which would prevent Scotlaud competing hereafter. Be- 

 sides, although a British team were successful, and although 

 Scotlaud did not protest, any nation in the world might lodge a 

 protest against their obtaining the trophy as having no right to 

 compete under the rules. Far better were a purely English team 

 to compete, about which there could be no question, and a suffici- 

 ent number of English shots have gone out to permit their doing 

 so. Considering the causes which led to the formation of the club 

 and your obstructive correspondence thereafter with the former 

 secretary, I regret you should think so lightly of the honor which 

 the couucil rsvertheless bestowed upon you in appointing you 

 patron, but you have left me no alternative, and I have, therefore, 

 as desired, deleted your name from tbe roll. I am, dear air, yours 

 truly, H. RENTON, Honorable Secretary.

 tlemen entered the competition, but two were forced to with-

 well, fairly out did himself, making the noble score of 310 out 

 of a possible 325, a feat never before accompolished iu the
