THE ARMY.

REVIEW IN HYDE PARK.-Yesterday morning,
at ten o'clock, his Royal Highness the Duke of
YORK reviewed the Coldstream Regiment of
Guards, in Hyde Park. He was accompanied
by the Duke of WELLINGTON, Sir W. KERR,
and many other distinguished Officers, and was
received on his appearance with loud cheers.—
The regiment went through the various evolu-
tions with great skill. The dexterity and quick-
ness with which they formed a solid square, sur-
passed every thing. Each volley resembled the
discharge of a single piece of ordnance ; such
was the precision with which each man fired.
The Borodino transport arrived at Plymouth
on Wednesday evening from the Cape of Good
Hope, last from Falmouth, with two companies
of the 72d Regiment, whichiwere disembarked on
Thursday. detachment of invalids from the
15th Regiment were immediately embarked on
board the same vessel for Portsmouth, on their
way to Chatham, to join the invalid depot, pre-
paratory to their appearing before the Commis-
sioners of Chelsea Hospital.
Thursday se'nnight, Captains CHAMP and
RYLANGE'S companies of the 42d Regiment left
Limerick for Galway. The second division pro-
ceeded on the 11th inst.

Lieutenant-Colonel IfoLmts, and the Officers
and non-commissioned Officers and Privates of
the 3d, or Prince of Wales's Regiment of Dra-
goon Guards, stationed at Piers-hill, Perth, and
Newcastle, have subscribed one day's pay, in
aid of the general subscription for the relief of
the distressed Irish.

The new regulations adopted by the Lords of the Admiralty,
with regard to the future establishments of his Majesty's dock-
yards at the several ports, are to be carried into effect on the
Ist of the ensuing month. By these regulations, a complete
change of system is to take place, by which a considerable
saving of expence will be effected, in consequence of the reduc-
tion of salaries in certain classes, the abolition of offices no
longer considered necessary, &c. We understand that the dock-
yard at this port is to be divided into six distinct divisions or de-
partments, and at the head of each a superior officer is to be
placed, as superintendant, with the proper number of subordi-
nate officers, clerks, &c. under him, all of whom are to re-
ceive their appointments from the Admiralty. The offices
of Clerk of the Survey, and Clerk of the Rope-Yard, are
to be abolished ; those of Master House Carpenter, Master
Joiner, &c. arc to be transferred to another department, and the
officers who at present hold them (Messrs. Vass and Guyer)
are to be superannuated. It is said that 14 or 15 clerks will
lose their situations in consequence of these arrangements, and
that all the Quartermen and Cabin Keepers, a superior class of
men, whose salaries are from 1001. to 1801. are to be placed
on reduced establishments. The resident Commissioner of the
Navy (the Hon. Sir George Grey, Bart. K.C.8.) is to be al-
lowed a Secretary, with a salary of 1001. per annum, and a
house found him in the Dock-yard.—(Hampshire Chronicle.)

SUICIDE COMMITTED BY A CHILD.—On Tues-
day last, a daughter of Mr. Green, of Charterhouse-lane, who
lived servant in the neighbourhood, was sent on an errand, and
had the misfortune to lose the key of her mistress's door (as she
informed some one of her acquaintance.) From that time she
was missed, but on Sunday her body was found floating in the
New River. It is supposed that fear of correction was the
cause of her committing the rash act. She is considerably
under twelve years of age, and was much respected as a well-
behaved little girl.
Yesterday morning, whilst Thomas Botley, la-
bourer, employed in pulling down the old houses in Whitcomb-
street, was clearing the rubbish out of one of the vaults, the
brick-work at the end of the vault, the only part of it remain-
ing, fell, and killed him on the spot.
AN AMERICAN COURT OF JUSTICE.—A Vir-
ginia gentleman, who had visited Pittsburgh to
attend a trial, gives a singular description of the
manners of au American Court of Justice. Nei-
ther Counsel nor Judge, as is well known, wear
a gown. The Barrister retained in the present
instance, being incommoded by heat, first stripped
off his coat, then his waistcoat. In an interval
of pleading, he put a segar into his mouth, and
deliberately smoked it till the opposite Counsel
had wound up his reply.
Since the discovery of the New World our
English Gardens have produced 2345 varieties
of trees and plants from America, and upwards'
of 1700 from the Cape of Good Hope, in addi-
tion to many thousands which have been brought
from China, the East Indies, New Holland,
various parts of Africa, Asia, and Europe ; until
the list of plants now cultivated in this country
exceeds 120,000
To MAKE LEMON BRANDY.—Put three quarts
of brandy into an earthen pipkin that has a cover ; add one
pound and three quarters of fine loaf sugar, the rind, pulp, and
juice of 14 large lemons, and two quarts of boiling milk: let
it stand 9 days, stirring it well each. day, then run it through a
jelly-bag until clear, bottle it, and it will be fit for use imme-
diately, and will keep long.
THE PHILOSOPHER'S STONE DTSCOVERED.—A
Provincial Paper, speaking of a fire which had
occurred in the neighbourhood on the preceding
day, states, that the heat was so great that the
leaden spouts were melted, " and fell in a silvery
shower."
