*GINEItAL ORDER.
Hoese-Giards, June it, 11E3.
hilajesty has been pleased to approve of the discontinu-
a." sf lomat% killings, and shoes, as a part of the clothing of
the issfautry addler, and of blue-grey cloth troweers and half-
boots being tabstituted.
Patterns of the articles intended to be adopted have been pre-'
pared, sealed, and deposited at the proper once, in Spring-
gardens, and all supplies on account of clothing for the ensuing
period are to be made in strict conformity thereto.
In order to Indemnify the Colonels for the additional expense
they will in consequence incur, the waistcoat hitherto provided
with the clothing, will, from the 15th December next, be con-
sidered as an article of necessaries to be furnished by the soldier,
who, bring relieved front the cost of the long and short gaiter, is
aw, front the stoppage hitherto made in aid of the extra expense
of the trowsers, (in all cases where such have been allowed to be
lavished as part of the clothing of regiments), and being, more-
over, supplied with articles of a description calculated to last
longer than the breeches and shoes now Issued, cannot fail to be
benefitted by the above arrangement.
The waistcoats are to be made up on all occasions in strict
tonformity to the approved pattern.
The non-commissioned officers, drummers, and privates of the
Infantry regiments, both at home and abroad, are at all times to
be in possession of a pair of white linen trowsers (conformable
to a pattern which has been sealed and deposited at the clothing
office), to be worn on all occasions of dress parade,lnstead of a
second pair of cloth trowsers, with which they have hitherto
been required to furnish themselves.
The dark grey trowsers which were formerly supplied at the
option of the Colonels are entirely abolished.
The 60th, and all Rifle Regiments, will confirms:4o wear green'
trowsers, as at present established. Regiments in the West la-
dies will continue the use of blue serge.
With the view of placing the Regiments serving in the West
Indies, whose serge trowsers ate inferior in value to the cloth
trowsers of the rest of the Infantry, on an equal footing with
them, three pair of cotton socks for the serjeants, and two pair
for the other ranks, will be furnished by the Colonel, and in fts-1
cure form part of the soldier's annual equipment.
It will be perceived that the above regulations are not intended
to apply to the Highland Ittgimentr. or to the Royal Staff Corps,
which will continue on their present footing.
