Lieutenant-Colonel Whitty, recently commanding the 10th
battalion, left Woolwich Garrison on Saturday last to take
the command of the Royal Artillery at Dover in the room of
Lieutenant- Colonel Palliser, at that station since September,
1849. Lieutenant-Colonel Palliser proceeds to-day to Bar-
badoes to relieve Lieutenant-Colonel Otway at that station.

Sir Thomas Hastings, RN., Principal Storekeeper of the
Ordnance Department, paid an official visit to the Royal
Arsenal on Saturday last, and inspected the various branches
of that great depot for naval and military stores.
MINEHEAD.—AN IMPOSTER.--A short time since
a fellow " favoured" this town and neighbourhood with a
visit, and succeeded in procuring sundry trifling sums from
several farmers, in addition to a plentiful supply of provi-
sions, by representing that two suspicious-looking characters
were in the custody of the 'police at Exeter, having in their
possession a number of sheep, which they had offered for
slle. Being questioned, lw", accurately described the marks
on the sheep, which left no doubt on the minds of the
farmers respecting the matter, as numerous flocks are scat-
tered over the hills, and might easily be driven away, and
not missed for some time. Upon further inquiry the affair
turned out to be a fraud. The fellow has the appearance of
a drover, wears a ragged frock, and an old black and white
straw hat, and carries a long stick.— Somerset County Gazette.

short time.—Fie Herald.
NARROW ESCAPE OF PCRTMAN CHAPEL.—Yes-
terday morning, shortly after midnight, a fire was discovered
to have broken out in the splendid episcopal structure,
known as Portman Chapel, situate in Baker-street, Port-
man-square, which, had it not been so opportunely per-
ceived, would, ne doubt, have resulted in the demolition
of the sacred edifice. Some of the joistings and flooring
were destroyed in the furnace-room before the fire was
extinguished,
