MR ARMY.

We are hippy to find, authority, that no re :I
mound existed for attributing dissatisfaction to the
t Regiment of Foot Guards. The' circum-
stances which gaie rise to the unpleasant rumours
that have gone abroad on this subject were simply
as follows :—Part of two companies, though Per-
fectly prepared for the parade, did not attend ca
account a a misconception of the crier, arising from
some of the men having previously said th.tt the
roll was to be called in the Barrack-roan. No dis-
content was manifested, and they afterwards turre.l
out with the greatest alacrity when ordered
by the Adjutant. An Evening Riper, first stated
that the men were dissatisfied, chiefly 'on account ct
being obliged to take coffee for breakfast, for w!I h
they were charged Is. 21 per week. The fact is, that
each man receives daily one pint of hot coffee, well
sweetened, with k due proportion of milk, for wriich
he pays only five pence per week, and so well regu-
lated is their breakfast-mess, that each soldier,
wherever he may be on duty, has it sent to him,
with half a pound of his ration bread.

Tuz FUNNY CLUB ANNUAL Rzoarro„—Yesterday, the Gen-
tlemen of the Funny Club gave their Annual Prize Wherry, to
be rowed by seven pair of oars; in two beats ; the three first
boats of the Silt heat being only entitled to start for the second
or grand heat, each boat being distinguished by a different
coloured flag at the stern. The following were the competitors
H. Turton, of Vauxhall, and J. Ibbott, of Cuper's-bridge--Scar-
let ; Richard Dyer, of Pepper-alley, and William Marsh, of
Vauxhall--Purple ; William Howell, of Westminster, and J.
Hulbert, of Bankside--Grange; J. Mastermaa, of Staxgate, and
E. Perry, of Lambeth—Light Blue; C. Maynard, of Lambeth,
;Lod James Faulkner, of Blackfriars--rink ; P. Walker, cf
bah, and W. White :of Strand-lane—Green; R. Farson, of
Bankside, and T. Howell, of Westminster—Yellow. At five
o'clock;they started from Westminster-bridge, accompanied by
several hundred boats of every description, and rowed round a
boat ntpored off the second windmia beyond Vauxhall !ridge,
and back along the Surrey shore through the centre of Westmin-
ster-bridge, round the beacon off Hungerford, when green, y(1-
low' and light blue came in first. At six o'clock, they started
for the grand heat from Westminster-bridge, rowed round a
boat moored off Battersea-bridge, and down the Surrey shore to
the prize wherry, which was lying off Cumberland-garde' s.
where it was delivered to the successful candidates, P. Walker
and Thomas White. The Gentlemen of the Funny Club dined
in the gardens, which were very full of sompany.

We regret to learn that a tdisturbance took place
at Liverpool on the 12th instant, in consequence cr
'one of those silly processions in commernoratlon e:
the battle of Aughrim, which can only tend to keep
alive a spirit of animosity between men who should
act as friends and brothers. Of the rioters eleven
were Ipprehended, of whom two have been since di -
charged, two admitted to bail, and seven remaniel
for want of sureties. The MAyon seems, very prr-
perly, inclined to bring to the test of him the conduct
of the Orange Society (a Society which has been de-
clared to be illegal by the heads of both parties in
Parliament), and has therefore held to bail, and
commenced proceedings against the President of the
Institution.
