The Admiralty will receive tenders en the 15th
April, for supplying hired transports in the river Thames
flea Lcadoe-bridge to Woolwich, Jacinths' also the dockia
between there pleas, with filtered water.
Orders have been delivered by the Ordnance
Department at Woolwca Arsenal for the issue of 3,000
quartar-berreli of powder to be shipped as beard the Lady
Amherst, sow at Gravesend. The Lady Amherst is boned

THE Bnmsm OeEXAN LEOION.—It is under-
stood that this solenoid force. which has been raised by
Baron Biatterbeim to meet the exigencies of the war, will
be sent, now that peace has been included, to the Cape of
Good Kopf. At tee Cape they will garrison the colony,
and °Moon and men will receive grants of land for their
military services. Colonel Worldridge's brigade will return
from Bestir', sad form part of the force at Aldershot
Camp Wore embarkation for the Cape. The
strength of the force will muster by about
the 10th of April, when all the recruits et route
will be delivered, about 9,000 men. The justice and libe-
rality of thus disposing of the Germane is unquestionable.
Most of the °Hien have thrown up their oommtssions and
their prospects of advancement in the Austrian, Prussian,
Hanoverian, and Bavarian armies, for the purpose of eeiviog
England, and, having got sway with great difficulty, they
would never be received back again into their tomer sir
vice, and se for the men, if they were disbanded, thou•
elude of them would not be allowed to retain to their
homes; and if they attempted to go beck they would be
persecuted, if sot imprisoned, It is a matter cf grod policy
sho to provide for and keep the German Legion to our ser-
v.to, fir on any future emergency, cut orwest, they would
be available ; and the fact of their having been so liberally
dealt with will have the very ben effect throughout Ger•
many, from which, should smother war arise, treble the
numbtr of men might be easily recruited.—Herold.

SPORTING.

TATTERBALL'S—MoNDAT.

The National Ball of Sport is, once more, ■et ageing in
earne.t, and the most gratifyiog prods sffurded that it
acquires strength in going. Doncaster, with its Si ring at.
tractions, is again &boot tt Lava a turn, and Tnirsk will
follow cloudy. Profeosional taifites are continually in a
state of transition—Bating from meeting to meeticg a 1 over
the country.
la the course of the afternoon the tom was numerously
attended, but paying and receiving " chiefly occupied
the attention. Shortly after four o'clock many of the mem-
bers left for Doncaster.

The betting, allthludh limited, was marked by two or
three movements of importance.
Cannobie wu backed for The Mrtropolitan at 4 and 6 to
1. and at 1,000 to 26 and 1,000 to 30 for The Derby. At
first 7 to 1 wu taken to nearly 100/. about Van Oaten, but
at the clue 10 to 1 wee laid. The current price did not,
however, exceed 100 to 12. Pyrrha wu basked with some
spirit et 20 to 1.
For the Two Thousand 2 to 1 was taken shout Fly-by.
Night, who was so closely peered by Yellow Jack, that 100
even was betted on Jatir against him. A few investments
were made on Bird-in-Hand at 7 and 8 to 1.
