ORIGINAL POETRY.

HYMN-.CHRISTMAS EVIL
The Samoa comes—the heavenly Babe !
His hour of birth draws nigh—
He comes—Goo's holy messenger—
Hail his nativity I
Welcome the meek and gentle Lamb!
Before him prostrate lie;
Acclaim, with gratitude and love,
With hallelujahs bigh!
Hail, hail, the blessed Martyr here,
With suppliant tear and sigh!

Hall bbrk. di Man, with heart and voice—
Hail Caanea nativity!

carefully observed by the General Officer, whenever such hotpot- 1
dos shall take place, and noticed, seriatim, in the table of General
Observations
When the Regiment, or the Reierve'Cumpanles, are inspected'
and exerdsed. the General Officer will once -at least, or oftener
as the occasion may serve. call upon one of the Captains or Sub-
alterns (provided the latter shall have been doing ,duty for a rea-
sonable period with the Corps) to put the Regiment or Compa-
nies throtigh their exercise, field movements, and evolutional such
Captain or Subaltern to be selected indifferently, and without pre
vie.. notice given to him or the Commanding Officer, in order
that it may be ascertained whether due attention has been shown
to the instruction of every Officer, whether .opportunities have
been afforded to him of becoming acquainted with every pate of
kis duty, and whether be has availed himself of such opportunities.
' The General Officer will charge the Commanding bilkers to
encourage the subalterns of their respective corps to quality attn.
seises for the duties of Adjutant., both in the field and in the
eedatty-room, and to afford to them every facility of acquiring.a
MlisMnalt knowledge of such duties ; and k shindd be pointed oat
Ns them, that by showing a zealous desire to render tbsoilealme
thus useful, tli-y will strengthen the claim which they may-have

Companies, so as to be able to answer it onie; arid correctly, any
miestions which may be addressed to them 'by their Superior Offi-
cers. This knowledge can only be attained by unremitted atlas
