lion leas hren incorporated with thorn. The regiment
now I boo hong. They are to march for Windfor

at Turn, in Ireland, (one of the referve battalions)
h tve volunteered to a man to extend their let vices to
attv part of Europe, during the war, as an entire
Biqalion, and tinder the command of their own

Unicioufly received by his Majetly.
It is rumoured that the Brigade from the Royal

Lieutenant General SINICOS'S flying encampment
is now in motion through the We(tern diflriel, and
likely to continue fo till the latter end of Oelober.
Previoufly to its movement, the Lieutenant General
tent circular letters to thole volunteer corps which
have not been during the rummer on permanent duty,
requelling them now to come forward with the
above mentioned fervice, in order to reinforce his en.
eenprnent, and to be jangled in the different du•
ties of field exercife.

The Cavalry and Infantry Volunteer Corps in the
County of Devon mutter about 16,cioci men, of
which about 4c,00 form the old diablithment, and
12,000 the new one The cavalry are reported
to be all on the former, being embodied at one and
the fame time. The following fcale points out the
difference between the two etlabliihmcnts:

NLw LITAILI3IMLNT•

&drams, Corporals, Drummers
and Prirees at the fame pay,
that is 206. per year for 24
days of exereife.
thrjeants. an Drummers, for Serie:int!, Drummers, and Pri-
cloathing, 31. los. vates, the fame allowance for
Privates, for ditto, tl. los. eloathing, that is 11. each mat.,
The offers of fervice both from ihe old and new
corps, went up about the fame period of time, the
plans of feryice having been regularly circulated ;
but in confequence of the numerous offers, Govern-
ment thought proper to contra& its acceptance, and
confine it to °tiers received within a given fpace.—
Shortly afterwards, however, Government thought
proper to extend the volunteer ellablifhment, and
field out new terms of a very contraeled nature.—
What was the confequence ? The corps forming the
new eflablifhment having offered their fervices once,
could do no lefs than accept of the new terms, as in-
v.iliun was the order of the day.
As invation is fomewhat done away, and the time
of fer:•ice (three years) is nearly up, timely it is juft
and politic that there Ihould be but one fyftem for
volunteer corps.
