NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE•

The Australasia, with the head-quarters of
,tho
68th Regiment, left Spithead yesterday afternoon
at 3.15 for India ; wind, W.S. W., fresh.
Invalid troops, to the number of 112 men of all
ranks, arrived at the Invalid establishment, Chat•
ham garrison, on Tuesday evening, from Cepha-
lonia, Corfu, Malta, and Gibraltar, in the Urgent,
iron screw steamer, Commander C. Phillips. The
invalids belonged to the Ist Royals, 3d Buffs, 14th,
21st Fusiliers, 28th, 46th, 48th, 57th, 91st. and
92d Highlanders, together with 27 men of the Royal
Sappers and Miners, with 50 women and children.
The Urgent sailed from Cephalonia on the sth inst.
A large number of the invalids are suffering from
ophthalmia. The invalid troops were medically
inspected yesterday at Fort Pitt, by Dr. J. R.
Taylor, C. 8., Deputy-Inspector-General of Hos-
pitals.
Reinforcements for the 72d Highlanders arrived
at Chatham garlison on Tuesday from London for
the purpose of embarking for India with those de-
tachments under order to proceed from the 2d and
3d battalions at Chatham.
The Lords of the Admiralty having permitted
Dr. J. Drummond, Deputy-Inspector of Hospitals,
and principal medical officer at Melville Hospital,
to retire from the service on full pay, on account of
his long service ; Dr. J. W. Johnston, Deputy-
Inspector of Hospitals, will succeed himat Melville
Hospital.
The Cuckoo, 3, steamer, Commander A. G. B•
Murray, has been paid off into ordinary at Chatham.
Her Majesty's steam-sloop Geyser, 6, Comman-
der E. Power, arrived at Spithead in the night of
Tuesday, from the Cal eof Good Hope station
having been ordered home by the Commander-in-
Chief, in consequence of defective boilers. She left
Simon's Bay on Nov. 1, called at St. Helena on
the 12th, at Ascension on the 18th, Sierra Leone
on the 27th, and St. Vincent's on the sth instant.
The transport Viscount Canning, with a troop
of Rime Artillery for India, was at Ascension
and sailed the day of the Geyser's arrival. At St.
Vincent's was the transport Indomitable, with
troops for India, when the Geyser left. On the Ist
inst., in lat. 13 33 N., long. 20 12 W., she com-
municated with the English bark Cornwallis, bound
for the Cape and India, all well. The Geyser
brought home one passenger, Mr. G. Thompson, Of
the firm of Borradaile, Thompson, and Co., and 29
invalids. She has be,n upwards of three years in
commission, and during that time has seen much
service. She formed one of the Baltic fleet in 1855,
and iu company with H.M.'s ship Archer took 13
ships in the Gulf of Riga, which she towed home.
She immediately returned to the Baltic, where she
was actively employed during the remainder of the
season, and was present at the bombardment or
Sweaborg. During the.following winter she was
employed on the coast of Englaiid, and on tha
16th of July, 1856, sailed for the Cape station,
where she has since been employed chiefly iu the
conveyance of troops to the frontier, and lat-
terly cruising in the Mozambique Channel. She
left in Simon's Bay her Majesty's ship BOSCaWen,
70, Capt. Glanville, flag of Rear-Admiral the Hon.
Sir F. W. Grey, ; the Hermes, 6, paddle
sloop, Commander Gordon, and the Trident, 6,
paddle sloop; Commander F. A. Close. Her Ma-
jesty's ships Castor, 36, Lieut. Wood in command
(pro tem.), and the Megmra, 6, iron screw troop-
ship, Commander Purvis, sailed the same day as
the Geyser, the former for the Mozambique Chan-
nel, and the latter with horses for India. In Table
Bay the Europe and American Steam Navigation
Company's ship Queen of the South, with the 66th
Regiment on board, was coaling on her way to
India. The Dane, the first of the new contract mail
steamers, arrived on the 29th of Oct., and made a
most satisfactory pas-age. The Geyser will sail this
morning for Plymouth, to be paid off.
Gentleman Cadet Palmer has been appointed Se-
cond-Lieut. in the Royal Marine corps, and ordered
to join the Chatham Division.
The recruiting party of Royal Marines in com-
mand of Captain Wylde, at Cirencester, in Wilt-
shire, is ordered to remove to Manchester, and the
