95th—The service companies are ordered to be in readiness
to embark in the Jupiter or Apollo, for conveyance to Ceylon,
'and sail the end of September.
Royal Artillery,--The Master-General of the Ordnance
has approved of the following transfers, viz., 2d Lieut. M.
Smith, from Major Sabine's company, Gst batt., to Major H.
G. Jackon's company, Ist batt., 2d Lieut. Gardner, from
Major Fogo's company, Ist batt., to Major Mackbean's
company, 9th batt., Major H. Blachley, to C. Troop, R. H. A„
vice Mitchell, promoted. lit Capt. Evans, to 7th batt , vic-e
H. Blachley. Major C. E. Gordon's company, at Barbadoes,
and Major Sabine's company, at Jarra'ca, are to be relieved
this autumn. The recruiting party at Berwick-upon-Tweed,
under Brigade-Major H. Moor, has been withdrawn, and
Major Moor is under orders to join his company in Ceylon.
A detachment for Ceylon will embark in the first week in Au-
gust. Head-quarters.--A battalion, mostly composed of re-
cruits, was formed on Wednesday for field exercise ; they were
drawn up in line on the Barrack-field, and received the Corn-
' mar.dant, Lieut.-General Bloomfield, with a general sa-
lute. An alteration has bee.' made last week in the regi-
mental device on the knapsack, instead of " IL I?. A.," it is
superseded by a caricature of a gun with a pile of balls under
the muzzle, painted on the black canvass with white paint, at
the expence of Is. 6d. each, rank and file ; the canteen cover,
which a few weeks since Onl:r was white, but the pipe-clay
being found to rust the tin was painted black. A new fancy
has taken place among; the authorities, and the contingencies
of the gunners is burdened with an addition of thirteen-pence
for an oil-skin case. Eleven gunners are in the guard-room
under a charge of opening the sluice-gates and letting the tiee
in while on guard at Purfleet, Essex, whereby immense damage
has been done. This is said to be a very serious affair.
Royal Engineers—Nearly all the apartMents of St. John's
Barracks are now occupied by the Trigonometrical Survey
Departmeln, under the direction of Lieutenant Downes, Royal
Engineers, where there are no less than thirty-six clerks and
draftsmen employed, and thirty more expected in this garri
son, their head-quarters, during the county survey, which
commences immediately.
