(Connaught Rangers), 95th, 98th, and 99,h Regi-
ments. Total rank and file, 20,700. General total
of all arms, 25,539. Three regiments of infantry
in England will embark for Ireland this summer,
to replace the regiments ordered on foreign service.
Orders have been received at Devonport to pre-
pare for the reception of the Grand Duke Constan-
tine, whose attention it is expected will be specially
directed towards the modern machinery employed
in the steam-yard at Keyham.
The barque Francis, Captain Henry, 112 days
from Swan River, was off Plymouth on Sunday.
Since the order has arrived at Chatham from the
Horse Guards sanctioning volunteering from the de-
pots of the 10th and 20th Regiments to the 3d batta-
lion of the 60th Rifles nearly 100 men of those
depots have volunteered for that corps, which is
still much below its required establishment. The
3d battalion of Rifles has received orders to hold
itself in reaclines to embark for India. The depot
remains at Dublin.
The works in progress at Chatham dockyard for
improving and enlarging the present slips and
basins are in a very forward state, and it is expected
that the whole will be completed during the present
summer. The most important of the improvements
now being carried out is that of constructing the
new tid4l basin, which will be 360 feet iu length,
and capable of receiving the largest vessels in the
service. The whole of the bottom and sides of this
basin are faced with granite, laid on beds of con-
crete of sufficient depth to give a solid foundation.
The width of the new basin is 92 feet, and depth
31 feet. The lengthening of No. 7 slip inward, so
as to afford room for building the large steam fri-
gate Mersey, is nearly completed by Messrs. Rigby,
the contractors. This slip is built throughout of
granite, on a bed of concrete 15 feet deep, its total
length being 330 feet. The iron roof is considered
a triumph of engineering skill, and has been erected
and enlarged by Messrs. Grissell. Among the other
improvements in contemplation it is proposed to
scour out the mud which has been allowed to accu-
mulate at the eastern end of the yard, in order to
commence the foundations for the large steam
basins intended to be built. These works will be
undertaken by the convicts, of whom there are
about 500 at present employed in Chatham Dock-
yard, the sum of 160,0001. having been voted for
the improvement of that dockyard, by means of
convict labour alone.
The new screw steamship Renown, 91 guns, was
put out of No. 3 dry dock at Sheerness yesterday,
and remains in the fitting basin.
The Curlew, Coastguard cutter, is being broken
up on the beach, at the Tale of Grain, it having
been ascertained that her damage was of so exten-
sive a nature as not to warrant her being repaired.
The Cunard steam transport Lebanon, Captain
Theodora Cook, which vessel arrived at Woolwich
on Thursday, bringing the Artillery troops from
Canada, sailed from Woolwich on Sunday for
Liverpool The four companies, consisting of 15
officers and 395 non-commissioned officers and gun-
ners, of the 10th battalion, were yesterday morn-
ing inspected on the Artillery-parade, facing head-
quarters by the Acting-Commandant Bloomfield,
Aide-de-Camp to the queen, and Brigade-Major
Shaw, attended by the garrison staff. The voyage
of the Lebanon across the Atlantic was one of the
quickest and most successful on record, namely,
11 days an 6 hours out from to port, having
left Quebe con the 10th inst, at bra.m., and reached
Gravesend at 5 p.m. on the 21st.
The United States frigate Niagara, having been
detained at Gravesend in order to make certain
preliminary arrangements for shipment of her por-
tion of the electric cable from Liverpool, is not
expected to quit her present moorings until to-
morrow. The steam-ship Agamemnon arrived
yesterday morning at Greenhithe, where she is or-
dered to remain until Wednesday, when she will
proceed up the river and take up her moorings off
Greenwich, a space having been dredged to form a
basin so as to enable her to float in low tide for the
embarcation of her huge cargo. On Wednesday
morning a party of 50 riggers from Woolwich are
ordered to make the final arrangements for her re-
ception. She is to arrive at 2 p.m.
Her Majesty's screw-ship Brisk, 16 guns, Capt.
Curtis, from Valparaiso, came into Portland Har-
bour on Friday evening and left for Portsmouth
next day, after taking in coal for the breakwater
works. She left Valparaiso on the 21st of Jan.,
and arrived at Plymouth on the 10th inst.
Captain the Hon. G. F. Hastings, who is ap-
pointed to the Portland, Coastguercl-ship, vice
Captain Boyd, is about to commence his duties.
Lieutenant John Woos]. Rouse, R.N., of Green-
wich Hospital, died on Saturday at that royal
asylum, in his 72d year. The Vacancy occasioned
by his death is to be filled by Lieutenant Abraham
Parks, R.N. (1815), additional lieutenant of the
Saturn, Captain R. Smart, K.H., at Pembroke.
The late Lieutenant Rouse entered the navy. in
1799, and after service in the Channel, joined the

motion to Lieutenant soon followed. The gallant
officer received a grant from the Patriotic Fund
and a pension for the loss of his log. He subse-
quently commanded 1820 Pioneer on the coast of
Scotland. In July, ,he was appointed First
Lieutenant at the Royal Naval Collage at Ports-
mouth, and in November, 1837, emshadmitted

was superintendent of the Royal Hospital Schools.
He was 'deservedly esteemed by those azquainted
with his excellent heart and generous disposition.

CAMPBELL'S DIVORCE.

HOUSE OF LORDS, MAY 25. •
Their. Lordships sat this afternoon at 1 o'clock to
resume the hearing of the evidence in support of
the petition of Mr. A. Campbell to dissolve his mar-
riage with Maria, his now wife.
The following additional evidence was then ad-
duced in support of the petition :
Julia Warton—l live at 150, Sloane-street,
Cbelse3, where I let apartments. Mrs. Campbell
came to live at my house in August last.
Mr. Macqueen objected to this evidence being
given, as• the bill only charged adultery previous to
the 26th of June.
Mr. Wylde said that it was merely to show that
Mrs. Campbell had been in communication with
Mr. Garaton since the occurrences already before
their lordships.
Examination. continued—Mr. Garston came with
her. They occupied two rooms. Mr. Garston
slept in a house opposite. He did not sleep at my
house. He used to pass all day with Mrs. Camp-
bell. They only spent one week at my house.
Mary Ford was a servant of the last witness in
August last. She had seen Mr. Garston in Mrs.
Campbell's bedroom. After that she has found the
hed disarranged. Mrs. Campbell told her once
that Mr. Garston ivas her brother. She had seen
the keyhole stuffed with paper while they were in
the bedroom together. When Mrs. Campbell went
away Mr. Garstou went with her. •
Caroline Sweeting was servant to a Mrs. Hopkies,
who lived at 21, pring§l-,treet, Hanover-square. In
Sept. last Mrs. CampT'Pktook three rooms F.t-their-
house. Mr. Garston cattle with her. She represented
him as being her cousin. He took his meals there
every day. He lived in the same street. They went
out in the evening together. He used to leave at
11. He would come in the morning before Mrs.
Campbell was up, and would go into her bedroom.
She had seen him in Mrs. Campbell's bed asleep.
He would change his linen and wash in Mrs.
Campbell's dressing room. They went away to-
gether. They stayed three weeks. She knew a
person called Ann Agar. She was Mrs. Campbell's
servant. Ann Agar went to Australia with her
sister. Mrs. Campbell went to the ship with
them. Mr. Garston accompanied them.
Mrs. Hopping was the housekeeper of a lodging-
house in Bury-street. St. James's. Mrs: Camp-
bell took the first flaor. There was a drawing,
room, dressing-room, and bed-room. Mr. Garston
came the next day. Mrs. Campbell said he was
her cousin. He took a bedroom in the house.
There was a communication between their bed-
rooms.. They stayed a fortnight. They left and
returned again in November, when they again
stayed a fortnight.
Mr. James Smith was a merchant, in partnership
with Mr. Campbell. He had lived in Sydney, and
he had been acquainted with Mr. and Mrs. Camp-
bell. When Mrs. Campbell came to England he
had rece ved 5001. for her use, and had taken apart-
ments for her. Within a few days after Mr.
Campbell's arrival be heard something about Mr.
Garston and Mrs. Campbell. Mr. Campbell went
to Paris soon after. On his return he went to an
hotel. He said he could not live with Mrs. Camp-
bell. Mrs. Campbell then went to the apartments
Mr. Campbell took for her at Hampstead. Mrs.
Campbell subsequently left Hampstead.
Cross-examined:--He was a partner of Mr.
Campbll. He expressed an opinion that she was
rather given to drinking. Mr. Campbell said that
it was improper for her to be so much with Mr.
Garston, but he did not at that time know there
was anything wrong. He had seen Mr. and Mrs.
Campbell at an hotel together. That was in the
middle of June. He had seen them there for
several days.
Re-examined.—He had seen Mr. and Mrs.
Campbell together in the hotel three times. There
was always somebody with them. Mrs. Campbell
was very unwell, and Mr. Campbell took a medical
gentleman to see her. Mr. Campbell objected to
Mr. Garston because he considered. him a low-
minded man.
Ctoss-examined—Mr. Campbell told him that he
had been at the hotel until a bee hour, for the pur-
pose of watching Mrs. Campbell's servants.
This being the whole of the evidence on behalf of
the petitioner,
Mr. Macqueen addressed the house on the part
of Mrs. Campbell. This was a case between a rich
husband and a wife utterly destitute. If this gen-
tleman bad accompanied his wife on the voyage
from Australia to !England the unfortunate events
which had been detailed to their lordships would
not have occurred, and he apprehended that when
a husband s-parated himself from his wife without
imperative necessity he could not come before their
lordship to a-k fora divorce. There was Captain
Wyndhatn's case, in which that had been clearly
laid down, for he having gone to China, and lett
h;s wife iai India, the house not only required proof
that he was compelled to go, but also to show the
reason that he did not take his wife with him. The
petitioner bad given no satisfactory reason for no-,
returning with his wife inthe presentcase. Another
point was, that the marriage of the parties had no-,
been sufficiently proved, and then he submitted
that the bill ought to have stated that Mr. Garston
was a married, man. Letters and evidence would
be put in on behalf of Mrs. Campbell, to show that
her husband had condoned her offence, and under
these circumstances he trusted that their lordships
would dismiss the petition.
Several letters were then put. in, written by the
petitioner to Mrs. Campbell. In one dated the 7th
of June, 1856, he called her his "dearest Maria,"
and begged her to return home and share his bed
and the comforts of his home, and stating that if
she would not do so he would make provision for
her to live where she chose. On the 11th of June
he wrote her to the same effect ; and on the 9th of
July, 1856, he wrote another letter stating that be
had sent her another maid servant, and informed
her that '• that unprincipled fellow Garston" bad
taken a step in the action by which the trial would.
be delayed until November. He also told her not
to hope to return to his house any more, but he
would give anything to restore to her her lost posi-
tion; in society, but money would nut do it.
In consequence of the absence of a material wit-
ness for the defence, the further hearing was ad-
journed until 2 o'clock on Thursday next.

THE BAIRAM AT PLYMOUTH, May 25.—The comple-
tion of the Rainazan, or great Nlahominedan fast month,
has been the subject of much rejoicing on board the
Turkish line-of-battle ship Peiki Zaffer, 104, Capt. Ismael
Bey, now in the Sound. A royal salut eof 21 guns au-
flounced, at 5 o'clock on Saturday afternoon, the approach
of the new moon, and at 9 o'clock its appearance was
greeted by the illumination of the ship, every port ex-
hibiting a light, and fireworks of a varied character
being displayed from her masts and rigging. The
fast over and all restrictions removed the crew were soon
seated on t',e decks devouring their simple but much-
coveted pilau, with other condiments. Yesterday (Sun-
day) morning was the commencement of the lesser Bai-
ram, or feast-month, when full amends are made for the
previous mortification. Royal salutes were given a' 6
o'clock in the morning, at 12, and at 5 in the afternoon,
and the ship was gaily dressed in colours from yardarm
to yardarm, the crescent and the star occnping the most
honoured positions. Although eating and drinking ap-
peared to be the most important feature of the day's
proceedings, sobriety and good fellowship were stricttuly,
maintained, and a swing by a single rope fixed to t f
foremast head seemed to afford the greatest amoun od
happiness to "Bono Johnny," especiaily.wh.en,he coul
induce one or two of his shipmates to join in ,he inno-
cent amusement. In consequence of the loss ofelsoonrn,einogf

tions will occupy about ton days, when the Peiki Zaffer
will follow the frigate Geyvan Bahri for Constantinople.
[ADVERTISEMENT].—Holloway's Ointment and Pills
certain Rontedies for Sore Legs.—Mr. Johnson, chemist
of Great Howard•street, Liverpool, informed Professor
Holloway that Mrs. Jackson, residing near his estab-
lishment, had suffered many years from an ulcerated leg,
during which time she was applying remedy after re-
medy without any permanent benefit ; consequently, as
a last resource, he recommended her to try Holloway's
Ointment and Pills, and these medicines have been the
means of effecting a complete cure, to the great coatis
faction of herself and others, who had consider her leg
ae incurable.—Sold by all medicine vendors through-
out the world, at Professor Holloway's Establish-
ments, 244, Strand, London, and 80, Maiden:lane,
