and returns home to England immediately. He has only
held the command since the early part of last y ar. Among
those who are likely to succeed him may be named General
Staveley, who held the command before General Brown.

the scale of pay and allowances to be given to Gen. Brown's
successor is determined.—Army and Navy Gazette.

EUBIM'S FASCINATION.—The optnion of Rubins
was always to respect. Never, probably, was there another
singer who so absolutely commanded the admiration of his
brother artists. I romombar well that in the " good oil
times," when he was executing one of his fascinating arias,
Lahladle and others of " the corps" would linger at the
wings, as though unwilling to lose one of his enchanting
notes. Considering how unusual it is for one singer to take
much interest in the performance of another, this fact is
significant of Itubini's power of enhancing the ear of his
listeners.—Lumley's Reminiscences of the Opera.
THE CAMP OF CHALODIB.—This year the force
placed under the command of Marshal de Macs
Mahon includes three divisions of infantry and one of
cavalry; the heads of divisions are Generals d'Autemarre
d'Erville, Bourbaki, and Dumont; and of brigades, Gene-
rals de la Charriere, Guignard, Montaudon, Baron Sus-
bielle, Saurin, Veron de Bellecourt, Ameil, and Count
Duhesme. General Jarras is chief of the staff, and
General Laury commands the artillery. The forces
consist of twelve regiments of infantry, three
battalions of foot chasseurs, four regiTents of
cavalry, nine batteries of artillery, four companies of engi-
neers, one of the waggon train, detachments of infirmary
assistants, gendarmes, and workmen in the pay of ttte ad-
ministration—the whole numbering 26,000 men. me
cavalry has all arrived since the 15th June. The two finest
regiments, the 6th and Bth Hussars, are formed into a bri-
gade under the orders of General Duhestne. Marshal de
MaeMahon arrived at the camp a week ago, but left imme-
diately for Paris; he returned three days later with the
Duchess do Magenta, who has taken up her residence in the
itfruetssn'sotelkuju; it and foreign princes. The camp i 5
pavillion of the impedel quarters, and which is intended for
will be done before the 251 h. 'lb()
rothcpgeeinmeEdis are simply occupying the pla es alloted to them.
Each year the rssidence becomt a more easy and more com-
fortable. The huts are carefully kept, and the I:egimel:tal
gardens are as agreeable to the eye as to the health of the
troupe.

A Wa,,hington despatch of the 14th says--"A
scout who arrived here to-night from the front Bays
that Sheridan's cavalry force, which started out on Thurs-
day last on an extended raid, had not been heard irom.wLen
he late; but it was the ,mpression in the army that he hol
reached Charlottsv:lle, on his way to Lynchbuzgh. The
rebel cavalry are not in a condition to seriously impede big
successful progress, and he will probably reach the latter
point with little or no fighting in the way. From 1.3
burgh his movements will remain a mystery, for the present
at least."

ARRIVAL OF THE DEERHOUND IN THE HUMBER.
