service who had completed their course of instruction on
the lines at Chatham left for Warley barracks, their
head-quarters, on the 15th inst., and 43 young men
have arrived from Warley barracks to go through a
course of instruction in constructing fortifications and
raising fieldworks.
A new experiment is now being tried by Colonel Jones,
of the Royal Engineer establishment, with a view of
using rockets as a means of defending fieldworks. An
experienced non-commissioned officer of the Royal
Artillery is in attendance daily on the Chatham lines to
fire them, and render any information that may be re-
quired. Four different modes have been tried, and,
owing to the satisfactory results, it is understood their
adoption will be recommended. The size usee. is 3-
pounders, and it is believed they will be more effective
than infantry in clearing ditches of an enemy when fired
from loopholes and other available places.
THE FRENCH REINFORCEMENTS.—Two 60-gun frigates
have arrived in the Downs from Brest, on their way to
join their admiral in the Baltic. The Similante arrived
on Saturday at 5 a.m., and the Vengeance at 6 p.m.
The Similante fired a Royal salute in honour of her
Majesty's birthday. The French flag was subsequently
saluted by her Majesty's vessels.
THE OFFICERS OF THE LOST JASPER.—The officers of
the lost Jasper returned thanks to Almighty God yes-
terday, on board the flag-ship Victory, at Portsmouth,
for their safe deliverance from the late catastrophe. The
court-martial will be held to-morrow. We are pleased
to learn that the Sun Fire office, with their accustomed
liberality, have offered (and suggested that other offices
should do the same) to make some contribution towards
the crew of the lost Jasper.

of them of great beauty.
