Kearney. Artillery Regiment of Royal Lancashire

Blackwood of this month declares that by, May next
the French will have 600 guns behind floating armour
plates, 10 vessels like the La Gloire, and 100 gun-boats.
THE "CAMELS" ARE COMING.—M. Mocquard, Napo-
leon's secretary, is about to bring out a piece at the
Porte St. Martin, entitled " Les Massacres de Syrie."
The performance is delayed by the non-arrival of half-
a-dozen actors—six camels which have been sent for all
the way to Bactriana. Playgoers, impatient at the de-
lay, are comforted by the idea that the "camels" are
coming.
THE BRITISH GARIBALDI LEGION.—Six hundred and
sixty landed in Naples, three fell in action, two by acci-
dent, one has died of dysentery, and twenty-two remain
in hospital. The numerical returns show the present
strength to be 560. About 40 have received their dis-
charges, and have returned to England.—Letter from
Colonel Peard.
RECOVERY OF THE AMERICAN SHIP ALlCE.—lntelli-
gence reached Lloyd's on Saturday that the American
ship Alice, bound to London from New York, which
was abandoned and dismantled some miles out in the
Channel, had been fallen in with by the American ship
Edwin, which put three of her crew on board to navi-
gate her, and she was safely brought into Scilly.
SPURGEON'S. TABERNACLE.—The continued efforts of
the friends of Mr. Spurgeon to rear the Metropolitan
Tabernacle and open it free of debt have hitherto been
very successful, as already nearly £25,000 have been
collected and spent. It will be capable of holding just
twice the number of Exeter-hall, and one-third more
than the Surrey Music-hall. The exterior is elegant,
and the interior will be unpretending in its charade;
and afford commodious sitting for 6,000 persons.
The Times, referring to recent discussions on the
navy, asks whether it is a fact or not that the Hero lost
nearly 100 men, and the Ariadne over 40, during the
trip of the Prince of Wales to America, and remarks
that this does not look like the naval paradise which
I admirals describe.
