THE 'Mgr.

We understand that. his Royal Highdeli the
PROWS REGENT, amongst his other generous acts of
munificence to the Army, has it in contemplation to
increase the pay and allowances of that highly useful
sad respectable body, the-darrifork Chaplains.

A misunderstanding has occurred in a distinguish.
ed Regiment of Hussars, which engrossei much con.
versation in the Higher and Military circles. The
affair had its origin in Spain. All the Officers, with
the exception of two, have, it is said, signed a Round
Robin against the promotion of their superior Officer.
The two for refusal have. it is said, been sent to Co.
ventry. This business, if at all of the complexion
represented to us, will occasion no little discussion.
It appears that the 'Secretary at War has directed
that full pay shall not be issued to a greater number
of Serjeants belonging to the different Regiments of
Local Militia, than shall be equal to the rate of one
Serjeant for two Companies.
Last week successive detachments of the Guards
were daily passed through Canterbury, and embark-
ed at Ramsgate for Ostend. The order for their
march admitted of no delay in proceeding to the
point of embarkation.
The sth Battalion of the King's German Legion
have marched from Hastings on their route by the
line of the coast to embark at Ramsgate for the
Netherlands.
The 52d Regithent have marched froth Hythe on
their route for Chatham.
Tuesday, the Royal Longford Militia embarked
at Liverpool, for Dublin, and will march immedi-
ately to their county to be disembodied. .
The Galway and Londonderry Irish Regiments of.
-Militia, which have !loci for some time stationed at
'Dover, are under orders to return to their native
country, and are to embark on board the different
transports in that harbour. e -
The North Down Regiment are expected to em-
bark from Chatham for Ireland, in a few days.

SERVICE.
Sta—l have the honour to signify to you his Royal Highness
the PRINCE Reogres pleasure, in the name and on the behalf_
of his MAIEST T, that, in future, whenever an Officer shall pre:
fer a claim in this country, on •account of a loss which he may

been taken Prisoner, and shall come home instead of returning
to the station where he was taken), produce to the Board of
Claims, $ Certificate from the General Officer commanding on
the Station where the kiss shall have taken place, " that no in-
demnification has been, or will be granted under his orders for
the loss in question; and, that he is not aware of any objection
to the Officer's receiving such an allowance for his loss as may,
upon investigation, appear to be fair and reasonable."
1 am to add, that these his Royal Highness's orders are to take
effect from the day on which they shall be given out in General
Orders by the General Officer Commanding the Forces under
whom you are serving. I have the !wooer to be, Sir,
