NANCY.—A correspondent informs us that it was
Messrs. Redgrave, Lister, and Co., who purchased Mr.
Baxter's two-year old fil,y Nancy, by Pompey. The
price was 700 sum, with a further contingency of 500
sovs. should she win the Great 'Yorkshire Stakes at
York. She is still at Job Marsi,n's, and is to remain
there.

Mr. Phillips's Montezuma, by Slane, died on Wednes-
day week of inflammation of the lungs.
bPORTING MATCH AT PARTRIDGE SHOOTING. A
match for 2001. a side came off this week. between
George o,ibeldestone, Esq. (The 'Squire), and W. S.
Crawford, on the preserves of Lord bearborough,
at Rufford Hall, Notts. Sir Richard Sutton acted as
referee. The shooting was on Tuesday and Thursday,
Mr. Crawford giving " The 'Squire" ten brace each day.
On the first day Mr. Crawford bagged 75 brace, blr.
Osbaldestone 69, which; with the ten brace given him,
left him with a majority of four brace. On Thursday
business was resumed, Mr. Osbaldestone having the
worst of the ground, and at the finish Mr. Crawford
was the winner by two brace. Good work for the old
'Squire, at the age of sixty-three, against a youthful
competitor.

THE ARMY AND NAVY.
(From the United Service Gazette of this day.)
Ilosd-KONG COMMAND.—We understand that the
command of the taoops in this colony, vacant by the
removal of Major-General Stk.veley to the staff at
Bombay, is going begging. The general officers have
declined the appointment, and others have been applied
to upon the subject.
REGIMENTS FOR, EMBARKATION.—The eight regi-
ments under orders to embark for foreign service, are
sent out to keep up the effective strength of the force
at Gibraltar, CJtfu, &c., consequent upon the reduc-
tion of the reserve bctalions at those stations.
REGIMENTS F3a IRELAND.—Five regiments are to
embark for Ireland, to relieve eight going on foreign
service ; but, as the latter will each leave a four corn-
pany depOr, the army in that country will thereby be
kept up to its present strength.
FULL PAY RETIREMENT.—We understand that
LiHut.-Colonel Dundas, 47th Regiment, is about to
be placed on the retired full pay list. His first com-
mission is dated in August, 1805, and he served with
the expedition to South America, and was present at
the storming of Monte Video, and served in the Br:-
mese war.

STu'F.—Captain Stapleton, cf the 13th Light In-
fantry, has been appointed an Aide-de-Camp to Gene-
ral Sir Wm. Gumm, and has prccceded by
the overland route to India.
THE BOMBAY COMMAND.—As Sir Willoughby
Cotton's name is out cf the " Army List" for this
mouth, and no substitute name appears, EB inference
has gone abroad that there is no intention of
filling up the vacant command, or that one of the
Major-Generals now on the stuff will probably
assume the chief responsibility. We believe the in-
ference to be erroneous. By the charter of the East
India Company, Bombay and Madras have separate
armies, separately commanded, and though it may be
in contemplation to amalgamate these and the Bengal
army under one chief when the charter has expired,
there cm be no reaicn tor the adoption of that course
ju-t now. Ou the contrary, the addition of the PLlD-
jdub to our Indian empire Las rendered a new divisien
necessary, and as the geographical position of Bom-
bay whi the better facilitate the occupation of the
southern and the western part of the Punjaub by
troops from that Presidency, we should not wonder if
Major-General Staveley has been appointed to the
staff of the Presidency, for the purpute of assuming
the command of the contemplated nt w division.
COMMISSARIAT DEPARTMENT.—Upon the embarks-
tion of Deputy Ccmtnissary-General Knowles for
England, Deputy Commissary Major has been
directed to take charge of the department in Canada,
until the arrival of Mr. Knowles' successor to assume
the command.
TIIE VACANT NAVAL GOOD SERVICE PENSION.—
It is reported that Commodore, William Fanshawe
Martin, now in command of the frigate squadron, is
the favourite candidate for the Captain's Good Service
Pension, vacant by the promotion of Rear-Admiral
Collier, C.B.
The vacancy caused by the death of Retired Com-
mander Beaumont has been filled up by the promo-
tion of Lieutenant W. Strong (1810). This officer.
despairing of anything better, although he served
successively for twenty-one years during the war,
four of which as a Lieutenant, has been induced to

take the retired or Brevet rank, without any increase
of pay. lie was the 76th on the list of Lieutenants.
