required strength, orders were yesterday received
at that garrison directing that recruiting for all
the regiments composing the three battalions is to
be discontinued, with the exception of the 77th depot.
The 27th (Capt. A. W. Durnford's) Company of
Royal Engineers, which was placed under orders
to embark for Gibraltar several weeks since, has
received final orders to be in readiness to embark
early after Christmas, when it will relieve one of
the companies of Royal Engineers now serving at
Gibraltar. The 32d Company of Royal Engineers
has been placed under the command of Capt. W.
D. Frazer, and has been medically inspected, and
also officially inspected at head -quarters by Col.

wich, there to take the command of the sth Com-
pany of Royal Engineers at that station.

ral years in France, established within the last

large, is expected to be formed in January.
