SUFFOLK YEOMANRY CAVALRY.

The following letter has been addressed by the
Lord Lieutenant to Lieutenant-Colonel Edgar :
.‘ Wakefield Lodge, Dec. 8.

"My dear Sir,—lt basing been thought expedient by
his Majesty's Government to release from their present
engagements the whole corps' of Suffolk Yeomanry Cavalry
in Suffolk, whether tinder your immediate command, or
oonsisting of independent troops, I have to acquaint you,
and beg you will make the same known throughout the
corps, that no allowance will. be issued for the maintenance
after the 24th instant. I have further to communicate to
you his Majesty's command, signified to the Secretary of
State, that you should lie informed, and through you the
commissioned and non-commissioned officers and privates
of every part of the corps, that his Majesty is deeply ten-
sible of the zeal and patriotism uniformly displayed by
the highly respectable corps under your immediate com-
mand, or acting independently in the county of Suffolk,
from the time of their services being first called in-
to action under the pressure of the war, down to the pre-
sent moment, whenever their services • have been required ;
and it is His Majesty's pleasure, as a mark of his Royal ap-
probation, that the officers of the corps under your com-
mand, and of every yeOmanry corps now subsisting, should
retain the rank and ,honours belonging
to their respective
commissions. To such testimonies of the meritorious ser-
vices of the corps of Yeomanry Cavalry in the county of
Suffolk, nothing can be added to render the gratification of
those who form part of this valuable establishment more
complete; but I should feel wanting in ro y duty to the
county and to the public, if I failed to take this opportu-
nity of making known, in the most unqualified terms of
praise, the willingness, the activity, the ardour, and the
judgment, which I have found to prevail in every part of
this respectable corps, whenever it has been my duty, in my
capacity of Lieutenant of the county, to call upon them
fur the general good of the county.
" I have the honour to be, my dear Sir, your most
faithful and obedient servant, " GRAFTON.
" To Lieut.-Col. Edgar, commanding. Suffolk
Yeomanry Cavalry."

The Bishop of Droniore, Dr. SAURIN, has
presented his son with a valuable living in that diocese, worth,
it is said, I,boo/. a year. The Chapter has also elected
young Mr. SAURIN to the Archdeaconry of the diocese.
By the Bornou Laws, if a man be in debt and
unable to pay his credits'.', cot clearly proving such to be
the case, he is liberty, the Judge saying to him,-"God send
you the means !" the by-standers adding, " Amen."
