711 E ARMY.

Major-Gen. Blomfield, Inspector-General of the
Royal Artillery, accompanied by Col. Charles
Bingham, Deputy Adjutant-General, and Col.
Henry, CB., returned to town yesterday from a
visit of inspection to the Royal Artillery at Shoe-
buryness and the various departments.

A general order from the Horse Guards was
yesterday promulgated at the head-quarters of the
Royal Engineer establishment, Chatham, announc-
ing that her Majesty has been graciously pleased to
appoint Gen. Sir John F. Burgoyne, G.C.8., to
the staff of the army, as Inspector-General of En-
gineers, in conjunction with his appointment of
Inspector of Works.

A first detachment of recruits for the Royal Ar-
tillery arrived on Tuesday at Warley Barracks,
near Brentwood. Further detachments are ex-
pected to follow.

About 200 men of the depot of the lst battalion,
6th Regiment, left the camp at Colchester on Tues-
day, en route for Portsmouth, to join their corps.

The summer course of instruction of the officers
and men of the Royal Engineers at the Royal En-
gineers' practising-ground, Chatham, having ter-
minated, arrangements have been made for a
thorough course of indoor instruction of the officers
and sappers during the ensuing winter, in accord-
ance with the scheme sanctioned by his Royal
Highness the Commander-in-Chief. The Royal
Engineer depot has been cleared, and will be em-
ployed exclusively for the instruction of the Royal
Engineers in the construction of facines and gabions,
knotting, splicing, tamping fuses, &c. In addition
to the above, the men will also be instructed in
infantry pontooning. In accordance with orders
rreived from head •quarters, the principal officials
connected with the architectural, survey, and forti-
fication schools have received directions to put the
non-commissioned officers and sappers through a
thorough course of military drawing and fortifi-
cation, in readiness for practical operations being
resumed on a large scale at the commencement of
the next season.

A number of mechanics have been employed for
some days past in the spacious riding establishment
of the Royal Artillery Barracks, Woolwich, in
preparing a stage and making the necessary
arrangements for a theatrical performance to be
given on a grand scale for the exclusive benefit of
the distressed operatives in the north.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.—
Bowel Complaints—Diarrhoea.—When these diseases pre-
vail, immediate recourse should be had to this ointment,
which should be well rubbed two or three times a day upon
the abdomen, and the intestinal irritation will gradually
subside, all inflammation will be subdued, and excessive ac-
tion safely restrained. This treatment, assisted by judicious
doses of Holloway's Pills, is applicable to all forms of diar-
rhoea and dysentery, attended by heart sickness, griping,
flatulence, and other distressing and dangerous symptoms.
After rubbing in the ointment a flannel binder should be
worn, and the patient should be restricted to a farinaceous
diet for a few days, till the urgency of the disease has been
diminished by the persevering employment of these reme-
dies.
