and the opinion of military moo generally is that it would
be beneficial if there was not so great delay in giving pub-

distance under the commaiid of Major Richards, preceded by
their excellent hands. A number of men appeared for the
lint time in uniform—a scarlet frock with buff facings and
white belts, a scarlet undress cap, and dark trousers with •
'white piping. The buff facings are cularly appropriate,
as the 3rd Buffs of the hoe ia a Lou regiment, formed
out of the old Train Bands of the City. The 3rd London
Volunteers have enrolled 1,400 men, and muster strongly on
all occasions. The style of marching of the men and the
smartness of the uniform were the subject of much com-
mendation, both among military men and civilians. There
ars several old soldiers among them. Sergeant Bush, of
No. 2 compaoy, is the brave fellow who carried Massey from
the Radon, and the corps altogether boasts a fair sprinkling
of medals in its ranks.
