Our LORD Amu AuutstaL seems to be giving every
description of Englishmen a great deal to talk about,
and to be grateful (or; and not the least, though per-
haps the least noticed, of these benefits, is, that perfect
ration and harmony between the various branches of
his Maj, sty's service, which we perceive to be the con-
sequence of those liberal and' patriotiC sentiments, so
wisely inculcated by his Royal Highness on every fit
occasion. Of the public utility to which we allude, we
may take occasion to say mote in detail; at present we
merely touch the subject, in accordance with the public
excitement called forth by his Royal Highness's recent
'visit to Portsmouth, and to n,tice that it is not only
during the Royal presence that this salutary influence,
is perceived ; it is found in cordiality and good will'
long alter his departure, and of which we have I most
gratifying and striking instance in the dinner and dance
given lately by the Staff Serjeants and Serjeants of the
Royal Artillery and Engineers, to the Staff Serjeants
and Serjeants of Royal Marines, and their-families, in
return for the entertainment given by the latter on re-
ceiving their new colours.

Above a hundred Setkants sat down tekktiseltt 1..,
table was covered with profusion and good taste,. tls
chars were filled by Serjeant Majori ' Lowrey land
ii)z nby, of the Royal A•tillery, who gave the smile'
loyal toasts of the day ; and in a speech that was lordly
and cordially cheered, pisyed that the happy union
now established between the Royal Artillery, Engi-
neers, and Marines might never be broken. For thi.
sentiment, Serjeant Major Harvey, of the Royal Ma-
ines, expressed the pride and happiness with which he.
returned the most grateful thanks, pledging him
that it ai I be the glory of every Marine present, to
cherish in grateful remembrance the feelings of that day
so enthusiastically proclaimed. At ten o clock the ditnt
her par. y were joined by about 11.0 of their wjves and
daughters, when the rooms being cleared, dancing
cemmenced, and was kept up with great spirit till a
late hour next morning. The company departed after
spending a day of delight and happiness, which, to the
same extent, has, per .ap., never been enjoyed in this
country before by that class. The good effects of sen•
tiettruits which could have such power must be great
and lasting: the rising generations nal partake 03
their benefits.
