Willcox should have been forgotten in the recent award of
the decoration of the Legion of Honour by the Zreperor
of the French for services rendered by British officer's in
the Crimea during the late war; two mates of Capta:in
Willcox's ship have been awarded the honour, but he who
commanded the mortar-boat squadron at the actual fall of

We trust it is not too late for him to obtain his well-earned

East, Captain Lascelles is ordered to take charge of No. 2
Company.
The number of field train troops encamped and butted
on Woolwich-common is still undiminished, and, together
with the vast number of horses—exceeding 2,ooo—which
are picketed around the encampment, form a source of
much attraction to crowds of sight-seers. Sundry bat-
teries and troops of Horse Artillery, varying in number,
are daily inspected on Woolwich and Plumstead commons,
weather permitting; so that the garrison at the present
moment, from guard-mounting to evening " tattoo," is
constantly alive.
