MILITARY.

THE 80TH REGIMENT.--This gallant corps is at present
in this city en route from Canterbury to Fort George. The
first division, numbering 10 officers and about 260 men,
commanded by Major Ormsby, arrived here on Tuesday
livening by the North British Railway from London, and

the second division, consisting of head-quarters and band,
and of about the same number of officers and men, under
he command of Colonel Hutchinson, came in yesterday by
the same route shortly before midnight. The first division
will leave by steamer for Fort George on Saturday, and
the second will follow on Wednesday. The regiment are
at present distributed in the Castle, Piershill Barracks, and
Leith Fort, about 100 men being quartered in each two
latter places. During its stay, it will bo called on to add
to the military display en the occasion of her Majesty's
arrival and departure. The 80th (Staffordshire Volun-
teers) returned home reeently from India, where it had
been 17 years, and where it had taken a brilliant part in
the late Sutlej and Burmah campaigns. Many of the
officers and men wear medals of Moodkee, Ferozeshah, and
Sobraon. The regiment also took part in the affair at
Pegn. This distinguished corps is, we believe, under ex-
pectation of being ordered to the seat of war early in the
spring should hostilities-not have terminated by that time.
Its strength, which is at present somewhat low, from its
long service abroad, and from its since having furnished
numerous volunteers for the East, will meanwhile require
to be made up to the war complement.—Edinburgh
Courant.

The 72d Highlanders will land in Dublin, from Halifax,
and proceed by rail to Limerick, and will muster 12 com-
panies under the new augmentation.
A company of the 40th Regiment arrived in Gort on
Tuesday, en route from Clare Castle to Galway, and on
their hearing that Lord Gough was coming in on the coach
from Loughcooter Castle, the men brought out fife and
drum to cheer and welcome their old general, who led
them to victory in India. His lordship appeared highly
pleased with this mark of affection for him, and Wt N. for
them to drink hia health.

62D DEPOT.—Lieutenant Wombwell has been ordered
to proceed forthwith to Cork, to join the draft now await-
ing embarkation for Malta. The supernumerary officers
serving with the depots of the corps in Malta are ordered
to be held in readiness to join the servica companies imme-
diately. The enrolled pensioners have received orders to
commence their usual military training. They will be
called out for four days on the present occasion. Since
the departure of the draft regiment from Newry en route
to Malta, there are only about half a dozen of duty men
in the barracks of Newry. Colonel W. F. Forester, de-
puty adjutant-general, has arrived in Dubiin, and assumed
his official duties. He passed through Belfast on Saturday
last, en route to Dublin, from Scotland.

A letter from Malta, dated Oct. 7, says :

Another beautiful day. " Strings of horses" were out
early at exercise, and numbers of visitors poured forth
to scrutinise their form and action.

Although the close of the meeting fell materially short
of the commencement in the amount of sport and at-
tendance of company, its proceedings were not a little
spirited and interesting.
The principal "feature"—The Prendergast—brought
out six competitor; but the finishing effort was entirely
between Kingstown and Claret; the latter, carrying 31b
less than Kingstown, won cleverly by a neck.
During the meeting 193 horses went to the post, and
41 races, including two dead heats, were run. The re-
sult of the Cesarewitch, and its effect on the betting
circles will, in all probability, have a depressing influ-
ence on speculation for some time to come.
The racing commenced to-day at twelve and termi-
nated at half-past two. In an hour afterwards most of
the company left by the special train to London, and
Were very comfortably conveyed thither in about two
hours and a half. _

REMARKABLE Tugs COINCIDENCES.—This year the
Chesterfield Stakes were won by Lord Chesterfield, the
Rutland Stakes by the Duke of Rutland, the Bedford
Stakes by Duke of Bedford, and the Cesarewitch by
Muscovite I
