The 32d Company of Royal Engineers, which was
some time since placed under orders to embark for
St. Helena, to be employed in the erection of addi-
tional defences for that island, has been augmented
to 80 non-commissioned officers and men, from the
companies and detachments now at headquarters,
and this, with 20 men of the Royal Engineers now
doing duty at St. Helena, who will be attached to
the company on its arrival in that island, will
make its strength the required number of 100 men
of all ranks. The 32d Company has undergone the
usual medical inspection, in order that none but
men in good health and capable of undertaking the
duties on which they will be engaged may be
sent out to St. Helena. Everything has been
prepared for the embarkation, end the company is
ready to leave Chatham at a few hours' notice.
The officers who proceed with the 32d to St.
Helena are Capt. D. A. Frazer and Lieut. C. A.
Lyon-Campbell. The 2d Company of Royal
Engineers is expected to arrive at head-quarters
from Gibraltar during the present week, and quar-
ters have been prepared for them at Brompton
Barracks. The 2d Company has been absent from
England six years, and has been relieved at Gib-
raltar by the 27th (Capt. A. W. Duruford's) Com-
pany.

The 15th brigade of Royal Artillery, under the

to move from their present station at Gosport; six
batteries under Col. Franklin proceeding to Pem-
broke, two batteries under Lieut.-Col. Dixon, V.C.,
to Alderney, and two batteries to Kinsale, to re-
Have the Northumberland Military Artillery, under
orders for disembodiment.

The examination of candidates for direct commis-
sions, before Major-Gen. Rumley, vice-president
and the members of the Council of Military Educa-
tion, will commence to day at the Royal Hospital,
Chelsea, and will occupy six days, terminating on
Saturday next.

A general parade of the officers and men of the
Royal Marines Light Infantry now at head-quar-
ters, Chatham, took place yesterday morning, prior
to the battalion attending Divine service, for the
purpose of witnessing the ceremony of decorating
five non-commissioned officers of the corps with
silver medals, which, together with gratuities vary-
ing in amount, had been presented them by the
Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, for long
service and meritorious conduct. The battalion
having been formed into square, with the non-
commissioned officers to be decorated ranged in
front, the adjutant read the official documents from
the Admiralty directing the distribution, their lord-
ships ordering the name of each of the recipients to
be affixed to the church and chapel doors of the
parish to which he belongs. Colonel-Commandant
Rea then advanced to the front, and, addressing
the division under his command, said it was his
most pleasing duty to present to the non-commis-
sioned officers they saw before them medals for
their good conduct and long service. When be
spoke of long service he might point to the fact
that each of the non-commissioned *officers then to
be decorated had served upwards of twenty years
without having committed any offence, and when a
man had done that he was deserving of everything
he could get in the shape of rewards. It was often
the case in the army that a man might succeed in
getting a medal -for distinguishing himself in some
act of gallantry without being at all remarkable for
his steadiness of conduct, but no man could serve
upwards of 20 years without a stain on his charac-
ter unless there were something in him. The
medals he was about to present would be certifi-
cates of good conduct to each of the men as long as
they lived, and, although the breast of one of the
non-commissioned officers was already covered with
four medals, this additional medal was by no means
the least important. He only hoped that the dis-
tribution of the honours that day would be the
means of stimulating every man on the parade-
ground to strive to do his best, and to faithfully
perform his duty to the Crown. Colonel Rea
then fastened the medal to the breast of each of
the non-commissioned officers, at the same time
wishing them long life to exhibit their well-
earned certificates of good conduct. Sergeant
Frederick Vanderkiste, the first decorated, has been
no less than 32 years in the corps of Royal Marines,
13 of which he has been a non-commissioned officer ;
he receives a gratuity of £l5. Provost-Serg. John
Turner has been upwards of 22 years in the service,
16 of which he has been a non-commissioned officer;
he is decorated with the Crimean medal with clasps
for Balaklava and Sebastopol, two medals for actions
in Syria, and the Turkish Crimean medal ; he also
receives a gratuity of £l5. Serg. Wm. Jeffries has
been 26 years in the Royal Marines, and 23 years
a non-commissioned officer; he is in receipt of the
good-conduct medal and an annuity of £lO, and
also the Syrian medal. Colour-Serg. John Alexander
has been upwards of 21 years' service, 17 of which
he has been a non commissioned officer. Lance-
Corporal Wm. Clarringbould has served 21 years in
the Royal Marines, and receives a gratuity of £5.
