ARMY.

One Captain, three Lieutenants, and 150 men,
with 300 horses, of the Royal Artillery Drivers, are
collecting at Chatham Barracks, for foreign service.
His Royal Highness the Duke of CLARENCE is still
at Portsmouth, where he is expected to remain till
General SLADE's brigade sails.
He places his son under Sir Joim Moons, as an
extra Aid-de-Camp, and he certainly could not have
an abler master. His eldest son in the Navy is under
Admiral KEATS.

The Duke of CLARENCE passes his time .at Ports-
mouth in alternately reviewing the troops under the
command of Generals ELLIOTT, WHITIAAM, PORTER,
and EVELEIGH. In these reviews he evinces to these
Officers an intimate knowledge of their profession.
He dines either with Admiral MONTAGU, General
WHITHAM, General PORTER, M.P. or the Honour-
able Commissioner GREY.

He is to have a naval command, and has pitched
on the BARFLEI:II, 98 guns, Captain M'LEoD, as his
flag ship.
Yesterday his Royal Highness the Duke of CLA•
RENCE dined on board the transport, where Cornet
FITZCLARENCE is embarked.

Mrs. JORDAN is going down to Portsmouth for a
few days.
The Duke of CLA.RENCE is to give a magnificent
entertainment to Admirals MONTAGUE, Sir ROGER
CURTIS, Lord KEITH, TYLER, MARTIN, and OT WAY ;
Generals Lords CAVAN and CRAVEN, WHITHAM,
EVELEIGH, and PORTER ; Captain M,Leon, and the
principal Officers of the Navy and Army, in a few
days previous to his departure from Portsmouth.
His Royal Highness is however expected soon to re-
turn to Portsmouth, after having made some arrange-
ments at Bushy Park. He is to have the same great
extent of command which Earl Sr. Vtxc2vr once
enjoyed, and is to hoist his Sag on board the BAR-
FLEUR, of 98 guns, having Captain M'LEon as his
Captain, and Sir RICHARD KEATS as the. Captain of
the fleet.

The whole of the Duke of CUMBERLAND'S fine re-
giment, the 15th Dragoons, commanded by Colonel
GRANT, is now embarked, and as the wind has been
.
favourable, it is expected, that they, with General
SLADE'S brigade of hussars, will have been able to
have sailed from Portsmouth. The whole cavalry
form a fleet of upwards of 120 transports, and go un•
der a strong convoy, it is said, to Bilboa, which they
will reach before Sir DAVID BAIItD, to whose army
they belong. Lieutenant Colonel ELLEY, of the
Blues, accompanies the cavalry to Bilboa.
A frigate will soon proceed with Lord PAGET, his
Staff, and horses.

" PORTSMOUTH, OCTOBER 30.
" The transports with the 7th and 10th regiments
of Light Dragoons, are at length under way. His
Royal Highness the Duke of CLADENdE took his son,
who goes out asextra A id-dt-Camp to General SLADE,
on board the Sybille frigate, this morning. He is a
very fine young man ; was two years at Marlow,
where he made great progress. •
" The 15th Light Dragoons, it is expected, will
be on board to-day, and are to go out with General
SLADE."

The Duke of CUMBERLAND dined and took leave
of his regiment on the march ; he declined proceed-
ing with them to Portsmouth and seeing them em-
bark, as too much for his feelings.
There are a great many Germans and other fo-
reigners in the 15th Dragoons, as well as in the
Prince's regiment, and the officers and men are com-
pletely Germanized in dress and appearance. The
15th Dragoons are not behind the Prince's and Lord
PAGET's regiments in the magnificence of horse fur-
niture and equipments, and splendour of the dress of
men and officers.

Saturday a Cabinet Cour.cil was held at Lord CAS•
TLEREAGH'S Office. All the Members in town as-
sisted, and their sitting lasted from two until half after
four o'clock.

We understand that Sir rRANCIS BURDETT has ex-
pressed his resolution not to accompany the High
Bailiff on the delivery of the Address from the Elec-
tors of Wesminster, with regard to the Convention of
antra.

CORN EXCHANGE MARK-LANE, OCTOBER Sl, —The
arrivals of Wheat today make an inconsiderable sup-
ply, but sales are heavily effected at a declension in
price, of about Ss. per quarter.—Rye is dearer—Bar-
ley and Malt likewise, and in short supply—Beans of
each kind rather higher—Oats are also in short sup-
ply, but large arrivals being expected, this trade is
not quoted dearer.—Flour at last prices.
