Board of the German Confederaticn hag deter.
I:flirted that the 9th corps of the army of the Confederation
%hell assemble near Dresden to execute combined evolu-
-22i°4- This corps is composed of the contingents of
r'atcfil.Y. Hesse Darmstadt, and Nassau. It has lately
been reported that the garrison of Mayence would shortly
be eonsiderably reinforced ; but it is believed that the re-
tort is ill founded, at least it is doubted by persons who
ave means of being well informed. We believe, how-
ever, that if Frinee should continue its warlike prepare-
ti°,lll, measures of precaution will be taken on the German
lido of the Rhine.

WOOLWICH, OCT. 2.—Captain Rowland's company, 90.
battalion, and Captain Slade's company, sth battalion, are
under orders to proceed to Jamaica to relieve Captain
Hope's company, 7th batallion, and Captain Warde's corn-
pany, 9th battalion, whose period of foreign service has ex-',
pired.
Second CPptain Sir H. Chamberlain, Bart., recently
arrived from Ceylon, will proceed to Scotland on the
recruiting service, on the arrival of Major Rayncs at heat-.
quarters, to take the command of his company.
Several of the non-commissioned officers and men of the,
companies lately arrived from Ceylon, being desirous.
of paying a visit to their friends after their very long •
term of foreign service, now nearly thirteen years
have, by the kindness of Sir H. D. Ross, Colonel.l
...imandant, been granted furloughs for that pur-
pose, and upwaids of thirty of the men proceeded on
their different routes today. This is as it should be,
as there can be no inducement which would have such'
influence ever the men as the prospect of visiting then'
friends and the scenes of their youth. The certainty of
furloughs being granted to them, however distant the pe-
riod, would create resolutions in their mind to save every
trifle they could spare, that they might appear with credo
when they reached their early homes, or visited tho com-
panions of their earlier years, and it would be wise pulic,:t
were the commanders of regiments to hold out this pros.
pcct as a reward for certain periods of gcod conduct.
