The 47th Foot, under the command of Colonel
O'Grady Haly, C. 8., received 'unexpected orders
yesterday afternoon to leave their quarters at Kirin-.
mouth, and move to Aldershot on SaturdaY4..en-
which day the 15th Foot, from Aldershot, are -
ordered to relieve them at Portsmouth, 'but 'it is
pi oba,ble that the couttenartial now sittieg'on two
officers of the 47th may delay the movement a few
days.
. It appears that one of the largest army.contracN..
tore contracted to supply soldiers' kits at 2/. 1.1e..34.
each, and his contract being accepted, 'several th-ou-
sand kits were sent into the clothing stores at Wee-
don, when it was discovered that the articles sup-
plied were of an inferior descripfon and not worth
the sum paid. for them by the Governthent. On
this discovery being made, the kits were returned
to the contractor, who haa since supplied _the, same_
• kits to the troops at Chatham for 3/. Bs. 9d. each.
It thus appears that articles which were rejected by
the governrneut as not being worth 2/. Us. 3d. at
Weedon, are consideied to be worth 3/. Bs. 9d, at
Chatham, and are purchased by the GOvernment
for the troops at that price. Since the at thoaities
have agrPot to present each recruit with a free kit, .
the whole expense of the soldiers' necessaries is
borne by the Government itstead of being charged
to the recruit as heretofore.
The Recruit, 936 tons, Commander J. Rook, has
been taken up by the Hon. East India Company
for the conveyance of reinforcements to India. She
take out reinforcements for the 71st Highland
Light Infantry, 72d Highlanders, and 92d High-
landers, from the depots of those regiments at
Stirling and Aberdeen. The Recruit embarked her
troops at Gravesend yesterday.
The Eastern Monarch, 1,600 tons burden, Com-
mander H. Morris, with upwards of 700 reinforce-
ments on board, took her departure for India
from Gravesend on Tuesday evening. , -
The freightship Waldertnan, Walloe master and
owner, has arrived at Chatham from St. Peters- •
with a cargo of Russian hemp, for the dock-
yard.
The Hope, Dyer master, commenced ,shipping
war stores at Chatham dockyard yesterday for
Deptford.
General Sir William F. Williams, attended by •
the garrison staff, yesterday reviewed the troops
of Royal Hc,rse Artillery and field batteries Royal
Artillery on Woolwich- commoa. The proceedings
commenced at 10 o'clock, and terminated at 1.
o'clock, immediately after which the Antrim Militia
(Queen's Royal Rides) in command of Lieutenant _
Colonel Ferguson, and the Royal Marines, in com-
mand of Colonel Brown, marched up to the ground,
and went through an interesting display of
skirmishing and Light Infantry movements, with-
out ammunition, until a heavy storm of rain
obliged them to retire to quarters.
Experiments were yesterday made at Woolwich
for testing the strength and superiority of Prellet's
newly-invented prepared thongs and leather bands,
about to be substitutedfor the ordinary bark-tanned
straps employed for driving steam sow mills,
grooved pullies, and other machinery in her
Mjesty's dockyard; and arsenals. A number of
bands applicable to the above-named purposes,
and othera intended for hoisting, heavy weiglatsain
the place of hemp-ropes, were tried by means of
the hydraulk,testin apparatus. • A. 2 ~fie

b'trk-tanned leather:re A 5-inch . double band of
the latter also broke at a tension of 4'7i
cwt., whereas a double band of the former
inch thickness, required 481 cwt. to break
it. The separation or tearing of the. two .
specks of leather differed also considerably, the
natural fibrous state constituting the great strength
of the hide being preserved in the new bands, it
was stated, by the patent process of preparation.

[ ADVERTISEMENT.] -Holloway's Ointment and Pigs.
—Far below the eruptions, boils, sores, and other ex-
ccences that disfigure the surisce of the body, lies the
acrid and corrosive poison which sustains and aggravates
then. This virus, which usually lurks in the large yes-
eels springing from the great internal organs, can only
be followed to its hidden recesses by a preparation like
Holloway's Ointment, whose penetrating properties are
irresistible. Having reached the poison its chemical
action immediately destroys or neutralises it. It acts
with equal speed and safety, and its cures are radical:
The Pill 4, from their purifying effect upon the blood, are
a material help in such cases.—Sold by all medicine
