The 62d Regiment, now in this garrison, is one of the best ap pointed corps we have seen for some years. The Company of the 6241 at Roserea, is to arrive bare on the 17th instant. Two Companies of the Reserve of the 42d Regiment, occupy the barracks of Glasgow, until the arrival of the 30th Regiment from the Isle of Wight. The Stitk Regiment are ordered from Newry to Bier. to replace the i3d. ordered to embark at Cork for Gibraltar. Captain SLID', of the Royal &gingen, has left Athlone, for his command in North America.

These two regiments served together in the Parinsula, America, France, and lastly the West Indies, when the 9th relieved the 4th at Richmond-bill Renick., in the island of Grande, in 1921, since which they have not met up to the present time, when the meeting was highly gratifying to both corps, after so long an interval of separation.

As a proof of the rapid manner in which the question respecting free trade with India is forcing itself on the attention of all classes of the community, since the commencenteut of Mr. Enekingbam's tour through the country for the purpose of awaken ing the public mind to a due sense of its importance, we may men tion that the College of Glasgow has proposed for a Prise Essay, the following subject " The probable effects, both is England and in India, of removing an existing restrictions on the commerce between the two countries." There is a general complaint among the legal frater nity of the want of business in the Courts of Law. This, with other circumstances, shows the poverty of the times, for they west indeed be very bad when lkigious individuals cannot tied money to ge is law; or else they are deterred from doing no in consequence of the poverty of their neighbours, who are not worth attacking. Even rapacious attitudes have become cantinas in inducing frivo lous actions to be brought with a view of obtaining their expenses, as where there is no prey the sharks do not assemble.

TRADE WITH THE BLACK SEA. In consequence of the prejudice experienced by Eng lish merchants connected with the Black Sea trade, by the interruptions met at Constantinople by English ves sels coming from Odessa, a memorial has been presented on the subject to Lord Aberdeen, through Mr. Huskisson. From the following reply given by his Lordship, hopes 'are now entertained that no difficulties will be in future thrown in the Way of the Odessa trade with this country: " Foreign Mee, July U. " Sta-1 have laid before the Earl of Aberdeen your letter to Mr. Backhouse of the Slat inst. enclosing the ntemorial of certain merchants of London, Uverpool. and Bristol, interested in the trade of the Black Sea, praying his liStsty's o•Veftilltellt to In terfere with the Turki s h Government, or the prrpose of prevent ing the evils which at present arise to British eeemerm, from the refusal of the Porte to grant to British vessels laden with pods the property of his Majesty's saajeets , Steens to pose from the Black Sea into the bletlitemnean ; and I am directed by his Lordship to acquaint you, that instructions will be forthwith transmitted to his Majesty's Ambassador at Coastantinopk, to afford his best sup port to the prayer of the memorialists. I have the honour to be. Sir, your most obedient servant, (Signed) " DUNGLAS." " To the Bight Hon. Wm. Huskisson. M.P." CIIOKING OF PUMPS AT SEA. We have received a letter from a nautical correspon dent, E. 1. who gives the following directions as a re medy for this dangerous accident: " When the pumps are choked, elevate them about a foot or eighteen inches from the bottom, and lash them together so that they do not rock, and they will keep sucking, although the ship should even make a deal of water, and the weather be desperate.‘' Our correspondent has made experiment of this, under precisely such circumstances, and he hopes the knowledge of it will prove serviceable to the seafaring community : " for, no doubt," he says, " many a vessel has gone to the bottom—and many have been obliged to bear up for some harbour, or run ashore at very great risks"—which, by such precaution, might hare lived through her difficulties. METROPOLITAN NEW POLICE. We understand that the following is the outline of the arrangement contemplated by the Secretary of State for the Metropolitan Police, for the organikatiou of which powers were given to hint by au Act of the last SesNion : 'l'l3e district of which the New Police force will take charge, at the outset, will be a very extensive one : it will include the follow ing parishes—viz. St. James, Westminster; St. Maniwin.the- Xields ; St. George, Hanover-square ; Sc. Margaret and Sc. John the. Evangelbt ; St. Paul, Covent-garden; St. Mary-le-Strand; St. Clement Danes; &. Anne, Soho; Mary-le-Bonne; &. ; St. George, Ulnomsbory; St. Andrew, Hol born; &. George the Martyr. ira parochial—Gray's-inn, coin's-inn, Staple-inn. Furnival's-inn (that part in Middlesex). The district including the parishes aboventeotioned will be di vided into five divisions, each division under the charge of a Nape riot odcer, named a S u perintendent of Police , to whom it is pro posed to allot a salary of 2001. per annum, and who will be con sidered responsible for the activity and good conduct of the police fares acting within his division. The total amount of farce for the whole of the five divisions will not fad abort of 800 men. The men employed will be divided into four classes. l'he superintendent abovementioned; the inspector, at a salary of 1001. per annum i • the police sergeant, with pay at the rate of .Is. 6d. a day; the ordinary police constable, with pay at the rate of 3s. per diem. The men are to provide themselves, nut of their pay, with a plain uniform, of a filed pattern, at cola prices. All appointments to higher stations in the police will in future be confined to those men who have distinguished themselves by good conduct in the lower ranks. Each man will have some distinguishing badge by which the division of police to which be is attached, and his number in that division, MI be at once mentioned. h No man will be.accepted for the office of police constable who Is not of vigorous lionsdtution, who is above 55 years of age, and under five feet seven inches in height. As the amount of pay will enable a man of good character to Mtn a comfortable livelihood, and the number of candidates is very considerable, It has been diqinctly notified to every man examined by the Commissioners of Police (Colonel Rowan and Mr. Mayor), that be will be instantly disasis•ed on a well-founded complaint of drunkenness. or neglect of duty of any kind. The Commissioners require that the whole time of each man employed shall be devoted to the service of the police. No man will be allowed to cabalist his strength by labour during the day at other occupations. The whole police force will be gradually placed under such a degree of disdpline as may enable it to act with elect, should any occasion arise fur its services, as an linked corps.—for instance, the late riots in Spitalfields and tumultuous mobs of any kind. Measures are in contemplati on, by which the new police force will be made useful in prevendag and in ratio- Bohai's& fires, and in the preservation of life and property endan gered by fire. An account of the charge upon the public for prosecutions at the Sessions in Middlesex has been printed, but it does not distinguish the ilmount paid for attending the Grand Jury, and for attendance after the finding of the bill. The regulation of paying expenses in certain cases of misdemeanour, it appears, coat the colony only 16W. in the last quarter ; this regulation might be usefully extended to some other cases—common law misdemeanours. for instance. sods as using false weights and m , uttering gilt sixpences, dm. It will ►e observed the total expenses of the last quarter exceed thine of the corresponding quarter in 18'18, by 8241. but an excess of about Will. might have been expected from the Sessions em. bracing the offences of an additional fortnight.
