the departure of Colonel CALVIRT, has been under the command
of the Hon. Major Mamattcy, M.P. for Northampton, and son
of the distinguished Member for Abingdon.
Recrasv, Sire. 2.—lt is rather an odd circumstance, that there
are not twenty married men (including Officers) in the 72d Regi-
ment; of course, on their arrival here, one year ago,fair hopes were
high, particularly as the town had been threatened with having an
old, worn-out, nine-times wedded veteran Battalion quartered in it.
But the 72d Regiment will leave town, we are told, in the tame
simple and single state in which it entered it, there not having been
one wedding celebrated within the Corps since it arrived here. It
is said there is so great a reluctance on the part of the Officers ts'
allow the privates to marry, that several of the Noncommissioned
Officers having nobly dared to wed, they were, for their contumacy,
doomed to live separate from their wives, who dare not enter the
barracks. It is not uncommon, we are told, to see a tidily dressed
modest female, with a child or two at her foot, and downcast eye,
anxiously watching outside the barrack gate for her husband's ap.
pearance, who thus only can enjoy a stolen interview with his family,
and must deny himself and them many comforts that he may main-
tain respectably and comfortably his partner and her smiling pledges
in private lalgings.
GENERAL ORDER.

horse Guard., Sept: 2, 1826..

It itas been reported to the Coustatanta.m.Cutar, that strict
attention has not, in all cases, been observed to the Orders
issued on the 25th April, 1822, relative to the Dress and Uniformity
of Regimental Officers, according to patterns approved by his Ma-
jesty, lodged at the Clothing Board, and explained in a descriptive
Book circulated with the said Order.

Elis Royal Highness desires, that the attention of Colonels and
Commanding Officers may be drawn to this subject, and that
they may be apprised of his intention to take the most serious notice
of any unauthorized deviations or expensive additions of embroidery
or lace to the Dress of Officers as detailed in those Regulations,
which were framed to support general uniformity, and to.protect
Officers, and particularly Infantry Officers, from the weight of un-
necessary expense.
By command of his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief.
