ter, to the Alarm ; John Tompkins, assistant paymaster,

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGEIVC.E.

The following is from our Malta correspondent, dated
July 5 ;
" The screw steam-transport Golden Fleece, which
arrived from Southampton and Queenstown on the 3d,
and took her departure for Scutari on the 4tb, landed
here Capt. Frazer ; Lieuts. Baird, Crompton, Farquhar-
son, Fergusson, Green, and M‘Leod ; Ensigns Bayley,
Bramley, Heskett, and Stewart, and 76 non-commissioned
officers and privates of the 42d Highlanders ; Captains
Cunningham and Greene, and 80 non-commissioned offi-
cers and privates of the 79th Highlanders ; Capts. Sprott,
Clayhill, Alexander, Hyslop, M‘Pherson, Tabiteau,
Nightingale, and Welcb, and 59 non-commissioned offi-
cers and privates of the 93d Highlanders ; and carried
on for Scutari Lieutenant Ainslie and 55 non-commis-
sioned officers and privates of the Ist Dragoons ; Capt.
Fitzclarence, Lieutenant Price, and 1 trooper of the
10th Hussars ; Cornet Gibson, and 1 trooper of the
17th Lancers ; Cornet Baker, and 50 non-commis-
sioned officers and troopers of the Bth Hussars ; Sur-
geon Sewell ; Assistant-Surgeon Irwin, of the 28th ;
Lieutenant Hatfield, and 24 non-commissioned officers
and troopers of the 11th Hussars, and 3 officers' ser-

Twenty-six men, belonging to the sth Dragoon
Guards, 7th Hussars, 7th Foot, 14th, 19th, 41st, 44th,
46th, 49th, 95th, and Rifle Brigade, sent home as in-
valids from the Crimea, and being restored to health,
left the invalid depot, Chatham, yesterday morning,
and proceeded to Gravesend, thence to be forwarded to
join their respective depots for service again.
Upwards of 300 men arrived at Chatham yesterday,
being the depots of the 24th and 27th Regiments from
Canterbury, for embarkation for foreign service. The
stougth of the 24th, 2 serjeants, 1 drummer, and
53 rank and file ; 27th, 6 serjeants and 230 rank and
file, with the following officers in command :—_Captain
W. H. Davis, 27th ; Lieutenant Loyd, 27th ; and Capt.
E. Codd, 99th. The depots are expected to embark at
Gravesend next week.
Great discontent prevails among the invalids from the
Crimea, now in quarters at the Casemate Barracks,
Chatham, against the Government, for not paying their
arrears ; some of them have not been paid since the 31st
of August last ; and a number of the men, since they
came home, have been discharged without receiving the
money due to them. The invalids now remaining feel
that they will be treated in the same way, although they
nave made frequent applications to the officials of the
invalid depot. They aro told that the returns from their
regiments have not been received. They complain most
earnestly, as they want the money. Some of the non-
commissioned officers have wives and families to sup-
port, and have as much as 101. due to them.
A detachment of 40 gunners and drivers of the 9th
battalion of Royal Artillery left Woolwich yesterday for
Leeds, to join Captain T. P. Radcliffe's company, 9th
battalion (r field battery), stationed there. A number
of those who arrived on Saturday belonged to the Wa-
terford and Limerick Militia. _ _

Tomkinson proceeds with the company, being the only

watch, was presented by Serjeant John Devine, on be-
half of the non-commissioned officers of Major Wode-
house's battery, 11th battaliox of Royal Artillery, to
Colour-Serjeant Wm, Banks, on the occasion of his
leaving the regiment, he having been promoted to the
rank of Quartermaster in the Land Transport. The
address expressed the high sense entertained by those
officers to the satisfactory manner in which Quarter.
master Banks had discharged his duties in the Crimea
under circumstances of no ordinary difficulty, and also
stated that Major Wodehouse, the commanding officer,
was well satisfied with his zeal and general conduct.
The watch has an appropriate inscription, and the testi-
monial was gratefully acknowledged by the recipient.
It was presented in a vineyard in front of Balaklava.

sequent on the war, the pay of pensioners of the Cork
district, numbering more than 600 men, at present
amounts to 1,0001. per month.

fouled in that harbour recently. The training sailing

wick in command, returned from the westward, where
they had been in attendance upon Sir Thomas Cochrane,
yesterday.
A. letter from her Majesty's steam-frigate Odin, Capt.
Willcox, dated off Sebastopol, June 30, says :
" We arrived here with the three mortar vessels, Firm,
Flamer, and Hardy, on the 28th ; they behaved very well
on the passage from Spithead to the Black Sea. To-day
we have got them out, and to-morrow or the next day
the vessels will be ready for service. Everything is
progressing well since the last unfortunate attack. The
Russians appear still determined to dispute every inch of
ground ; the strength of the garrison, however, is much
smaller. The large encampment on the north side is
said only to contain a few troops, with the invalids from
the town ; their principal force is located on the Belbek,
their only source of sufficient water. You will, of course,
have heard of Lord Raglan's death, and of Sir George
Brown's illness on board the flagship ; he will leave for
England directly. Major-General Simpson has assumed
the command ; Sir Colin Campbell is the favourite,'
and all are looking forward to him for the Commander-
in-Chief ; there is but little firing going on just now, and
that only from and on the advanced works. The climate
is very beautiful, and there ought not to be sickness of
any sort. The weather is a little warm in the middle of
the day, but not more so than in August at home. All
the fleet are here, with the exception of one or two
small vessels at Kertch and off Odessa—all healthy.
The whole coast is swarming with merchant vessels
bringing out a good supply, so that there is no lack of
anything •, 120 or more can generally be counted from
the masthead approaching and leaving Balaklava, Ka-
miesh, and Kazatch—quite a forest of shipping."
The Government screw steambransport Resolute, Capt.
Pentree, from Balaklava June 22, Constantinople 24, and
Malta 30, arrived, all well, at Plymouth yesterday after-
noon. On the Ist of July, off Cape Bonne, she spoke the

and on the 2d of July, off Tanis, the screw-steamers
Perseverance and Assistance, all for Malta. On the
7th of July, off Lisbon, the screw-steamer Teneriffe,
steering south ; and July 8, off Finisteere, the brig
Hebe, from Sicily for Newcastle. The Resolute
lost three firemen and one seaman by cholera sin
leaving Balaklava.
