Last week the Earl of CAVAN reviewed his own
regiment, the 77th, at Winchester. His Lordship
expressed himself highly pleased with their appear-
ance and discipline, which reflected so much cre-
dit on their Commanding Officer, Colonel WHITE-
LOCKE. It is but a few months since this highly
distinguished corps came home a skeleton from India;
they now muster nearly 600 men. Lord CAVAN,
and many Officers of the Staff, dined with Colonel
WHITELOCKE and the Officers of the Regiment, after
the review.

The 2d Surrey Militia are under orders to arrive at
Ramsgate from Reading-street Barracks, in two divi-
sions, on Thursday and Friday next.
The 85th Regiment of Foot arrived last week, in
two divisions, at Shorncliffe.

Wednesday last the Oxford troop of volunteer ca-
valry were inspected in Port-meadow by the Hon.
Colonel PARKER, in the absence of Colonel CORBYN,
as was also the troop commanded by Lord F. A.
SPENCER, in Blenheim Park.

The 2d battalion of the 35th, (or the Sussex) which
lately returned from Egypt, commanded by his Grace
the Duke of RICHMOND, have marched into Chichester
barracks.

Lewes barracks from Bletchington, to succeed the
Northumberland regiment, which last week marched
hence to Battle.

The North York Militia broke up camp from Chat-
ham Lines on Monday last, and marched in three
divisions on that and the following days for Deal
Barracks.

The Camp at Danbury has broke up, and the
troops are disposed of as follows :—The 2d Battalion,
55th Regiment, Major Moore, has marched to Chi-
chester ; the 2d Battalion, 87th, or Prince of Wales's
Royal Irish heroes, 1050 strong, commanded by
Major GOUGH, are gone to Weeley Barracks ; and
the Ist Battalion, 88th Regiment, Colonel DUFF, have
returned to their old quarters at Malden. We are
sorry to learn that these Corps have been latterly very
sickly, oxt account of a long continuance of rainy
weather to which they were exposed whilst under
canvas.

The 71st Regiment, who were made prisoners
along with General BERESFORD, at Bombs Ayres,
behaved with their accustomed gallantry in Portugal.'
They were commanded by Colonel PACK, the same
who served in South America, an Officer deservedly
regarded by every one under his command.
