-590, Regiment, which lately etrib.oked
Dover, have safely arrived at o,teißf.

The 23d Dragoons were expeted to arrive at
Ramsgate this day, for embarkatain.
Captain Buriltawourir's company, and Wet.
YOUNGHUSISAND'S company of Artillery, embarked
►esterday morning on bond transports, at Woolwich
Arsenal. All the Foot Artillery now embarking, or
to be embarked, are to be attached to the Battering
Train—they are expected to be at 0 .reild in the course
of to morrow. Another troop of Base Artillery is
ordered for foreign service, but it is not yet ascertain-
ed from which of the depots it is to proceed. The
Artillery coming from America are all ordered to
Holland. the Camel storeship is ordered to be im-
mediately loaded for Gibraltar. As yet no more
men have been entered in the krsenal. The esta-
blislintent at Purace', where the Powder is proved
and received, is in the greatest activity.
In addition to the proposed augmentation of the
Royal Staff Corps (whose services were found so va-
ltiabie the Peninsular war), the Duke of War,
LiNutt•N i. 43 suggested the formation of a Curpr of
Pioneers, to be attached to, and act under, the Quar-
ter Master General's Department : it is to be formed
on the same principle as tl)e Copt of Guides in the
French service, sand cossiac.r.ible numbers of the u.ld
soldiers of the Foot Guards have been already selec-
ted as Serjeants and Corporals. The utility af stsch
a corps must he apparen•. General CAPEL has been
recommended as Chief Pioneer, with the allowance of
Major General on the Staff.

port in the kingdom, as it evidently possesses every
advantage in point of local situation, and the regu-
lar Ostend packets belonging to the place, which
have been purposely built, and elegantly fitted up for
the passage line, are not inferior so any vessels of
this description, either in point of accommodation or
