THE MILITIA.

The order for the Royal Regiment of the City or. Lon-
don Militia to proceed to Deptford has been counter-
manded ter the preseet, and ;t is believed that the
corps will not take gareisun duty until the household
troops and those of the line proceed to the camp at
Aldershott-heath, when the regiment, mustering 600
bayonets, will garrison the Tower. The men are drilled
every morning and afternoon in the Artillery-ground,
Finsbury. The regiment will be inspected in a few days
previously to taking garrison duty.
It is expected that the Tower Hamlets Royal Light
' Infantry Regiment of Militia will march from their head-
quarters, Bethnal-green, on Monday or Tuesday next,

wing of the Horse Artillery-square. The regiment will
be drilled daily on the Common, and will take garrison
duty when the regu'ar troops remove to Aldershott.

although the officers and men Yolunteered for foreign
service long since, the regiment being one of the first in
England to do so.

Fort (that of Capt. Travers) having been called to Wool-
wich, a detachment of about 50 men of the Fife Artillery
Militia, recently embodied, have been sent from Cupar
