I.'roin the above it will be observed, that 21 Regiments of
European Infantry, 1 Troop Horse Artillery, 4 Companies
European 17,:.50t Artillery, 2 ditto Golundauze, 1 Regiment of
Native Cavalry, 1. Regiment Irregular Horse, and 11 Native
Infantry Regiments, are at this moment on Foreign Service—
or very nearly one•halt VNe.Bombay army 1
We understand that on th:A recommendation of the Medical
Board, Governmenthas ordered the sickly portion of the 10th
Regiment, N. 1., amounting to 200 or 300 men, to be with-
drawn from Aden as soon u possible. This is a most judicious
arrangement ; but really, considering that nearly one-half of
the Native Troops of this Presidency are serving in Scinde, we
conceive that the Bombay Army should altoguher be iFtieved
of the duties at Aden, and that. a Madras .Native Regiment
should now teke its turn there.
We lament to learn that very sad accounts have been re-
ceived of an inroad of cholera on the Ist Eur. Regiment on its
march from Kandallah to Poonah. Between the 20i1) and 24th
inst. ne tester than 52 caseshad taken place, of which 18 prov'ed
fatal. It is satisfactory to know that the regiment had ar-
rived at Poonah, and that no additional cases had been reported
for 48 hours up to Monday evening.

so duty.

The late heavy, and much nefked, rains have had a

upon all the growing crops, and theme
we
which has apparently set in, . with a sueces-
cession, at intervals, of gentle showers, will bring on the
products of the land amazingly. Never we believe, did
the crops present a more promi'ing appearance, the
wheats, in particular, looking extremely well, aed everything
augurs prosperously for the interest of the farmer. - We regret
however, to state that, in the island of Anglisey, io many
places, the grub has done much injury to the oats. Of this
article considerable .quantities have, we underitand, beem sent
off lately from Almwch, Cemaes, and the Other ports, at 17s.
