Twenty waggon loads of stores for the army and navy
are now at Southampton, waiting to be shipped. There
are also 200 tons of artillery stores for Circassia.
Amongst the stores are 3,000 blankets and hammocks,

We have reason to believe that the colonelcy of the 3d
Buffs, vacant by the death of General Sir Henry King,
will be conferred on Lieut.-General the Hon. H. E.
Butler, father of the gallant defender of Silistria.
