Friday, 0,2 Ist Battalion of the Sd Guards, under
the command of Lieutenant-Colonel WiLtOuonnv
CorroN, was inspected at Portsmouth, by Major,
General Sir G. COOKE, k.C.B: on which .occasion
the Major-General expressed himself highly. satisfied
with the appearance and correct discipline. of this
distinguished corps.

The Sasser Militia have completed their training
service of 28 days.
in consequence of orders, the East Kent Militia,
at present quartered in Canterbury, have taken poi-
session of the Infantry, Barracks in Northgate.
Saairday se'nnight, the Warwickshire Regiment
of Militia, -commanded by "the Right Hon. the Earl
of WAtiwtcr, finished its term of 28 day,' perManent
duty. 'Phis fine body of men had a field-day on the
Friday, when they were reviewed by Major-General
the Hon. Sir Camaimes Girvto.r.. After the inspec-

Colonel of the Reg,iment-a- testimonial of his appro-
bation of their good conduct and strict discipline.

Tuesday, the 88th Regiment were reviewed in a
field under Blacon Pointr near Chester, by Lieut.-
General Sir JAME 9 LYox, K.C.B. It is almost ua-
necessary to tha the evolutions of this gallant
and distinguished corps, were performed with a ra-
pidity and accuracy which we never saw equalled :
the formation of the square—the work of a moment—
was a beautiful manoeuvre, and the firing was exe-
cuted with the precision of .a single discharge. The
review, which terminated about twelve o'clock, not-
withstanding the coldness of the day, was attended
by a great number of people, and•many Ladies and
Gentlemen of distinction.
