THE Anal AND NAVY.
(Frost the United Service Gazette.)
THE ARMY iv IRELAND.—We are enabled t) an-
nounce, from an authentic source, that the following will
belle head-quarters of the several infantry regiments
and depots during the present year, and that the moves
will commence early in April:--
Regiments—lst Foot, 2d battalion, from Dublin to
Limerick; 2d, from Dublin to Newry; 3d, from Limerick
to Galway; 9th, from Newry to Dublin; 31st, from Ath-
lone to Dublin; 35th, from Mullingar to Enniskillen;
40th, to remain for the present at Dublin; 41st, to re-
main at Cork; 43d, from Kilkenny to Dublin; 47th, to
remain for the present at Buttevant ; 48th. from Dublin
to Athlone; 49th. from Templemore to Fermoy; 55th,
from Dahlia to Waterford; 57th. from Enniskillen to
Dublin; 60th, 2d battalion. from Dublin to Templemore;
68th, from Galway to Limerick; 71st, Ist battalion,
from Naas to Dublin; 74th, fi-um Limerick to Clonmel;
• 85th, from Waterford to Mullingar; 89th, to remain for
the present at Birr ; 92d, from Clonmel to Kilkenny.
Depots-6th Foot, from Fermoy to Templemore;
19th, from Mullingar to Naas; 34th, from Boyle to Len
donderry; 33th, from Castlebar to Nenagh; 59th, from
Fermoy to Tralee; 66th, from Tralee to Youghal; 73d,
from Templemore to Boyle; 79th, from Nenagh to Kin-
sale; 88th, from Kinsale to Castlebar.
CANDIDATES FOR COMMISSION S.—We understand
that the sum granted by the Secretary-at-War to cover
the whole expense incurred by the new arrangement of
examining the candidates tor the Army, will not exceed
400/. per annum
SINDE PRIZE MOIVY.—The local Government at
Bombay, acting under the orders of the Supreme Go-
vernment, have directed the payment of the second dis-
tribution of the Sinde Prize Money to be suspended until
further orders.
J-AMAICA.—We regret to hear that, by the last ac-
counts, Major-General Banbury, K.H. had again been
suffering from intermittent fever. We understand that
the General's son, Captain Banbury, of the 67th Regi-
ment, is not to continue to hold the two appointments
of Assistant Military Secretary and Aide-de-Camp.
Lieutenant-Colonel Kelly, of the provisional battalion
at Chatham, will succeed Colonel Weare, as Comman-
dant, and Major Jervis, 72d Highlanders, is to become
the Lieutenant Colonel of the corps.
The appointment of Superintending Officer of the
Cavalry Subdivision of the London District will shortly
become vacant by the promotion of Lieutenant Cookes,
of the 3d Light Dragoons.
We have reason to believe that some vacancies will
shortly occur amongst the Field Officers of the 3d West
India Regiment.
A fracas of a serious nature has taken place at Nassau
between an officer of the Ist West India Regiment and
an ordnance clerk, and which is likely to result in a
Court-Martial, when some very curious evidence will
transpire.
Rewanns FOR DISTINGITIiiIIED SERVICE. -- A Good
Service Pension of 2001. has just been conferred on Ma-
jor-General James Grant, and the pension of 1501. per
annum, some time since awarded to Major-Generals
Goo. Aug. Henderson and Roger Parke, have been aug-
mented to 200. each. A glance at the roll of the ser-
vices of these officers will show that they are every way
deserving of the rewards. Major-Gen James Grant,C.B.,
saw service in India (twice), Sicily, the Netherlands,
and Waterloo. Major-General Henderson dates his
active career from the Irish rebellion. He was after-
wards at the Holder, in Egypt, with Abercromby, in
Portugal with Moore, and followed the Duke's fortunes
from 1811 to 1814. Major-General Parke b( ars the
war medal with a clasp for Albuera—was present at
Busaco, distinguished himself at Campo Mayor and
Arroyo de-Molino. Previous to the Peninsular war he
served in tlat Wept Indies and Naples.

(From the Mining Journal.)
An average mount of business has been transaWd
