The LARGEST CLOCK IN TIE WORLD.
The largest clock that was ever con-
structed, it is said, has recently been
finished by Mr.. Dent for the new houses
of the English Parliament. The dials
are twenty-five feet in diameter; the
point of the minute hand will therefore
move nearly fourteen inches every min
ute. The pendulum is fifteen feet long.
The hour-bell is eight feet high and
weighs fifteen tons. The clock, as a
whole, is eight themes as large as fnll-
sized cathedral clock.

= EXPLANATION OF MILITARY MATTERS.
An article upon war matters in House
hold Words contains the following ex-
plantations:
"Popularly. regiment is supposed
10 consist of 1000 men. but at present
the actual strength of an infantry regi-
ment is battalion of 1887 men of all
ranks. One-third of this number, four
companies, leach company being COM
posed of a captain, 2 subalterns, 5 SER
geants, 2 corporals, e5 privates, form
the depot or reserve at home; while the
other eight, amounting to 895 men, are
the service companies on duty abroad.
4 regiment of cavalry numbers Ell
horses, or 361 horses in the dragons,
and as many as 7O3 in the East Indies.
What is called division of an army is
a force Of from 5000 to 10, 900 men, in
command Of general, and made up Of
two or three brigades of three or four
regiments each of infantry. two or three
gun batteries Of six pieces each, and
proportion of cavalry. In reckoping
their number. it is customary to deduct
ten per cent sick or disabled; so that
Eve regiments, of say eight hundred
each, would represent three thousand
six hundred fighting men actually in the
field. A division in the line Of battle
is posted in two lines, one in rear of the
other, with the cavalry behind, and a
reserve of two guns and one or two
regiments behind these, to be kept fresh
in case of need. Some idea of the
extent of line may be gathered from
these numbers regiment Of 800
stretches ESQ yards; division of three
brigades, 735 yards, allowing for space
between, and aregiment of cavalry 400
yards. The guns are posted in front,
or at the fanks, at each end of the line,
the right flank and wing being at your
right hand as you face the enemy, the
left at your left hand. Generally, the
artillery have the honor to begin the en-
counter, supported by the fire of the
infantry. When the former have done
sufficient execution, the latter advance
with the bayonet to complete the bust
ness: and when the enemy is disorgan-
lied, or in fight, cavalry follow up the
blow and dart off in pursuit. Artillery
are usually employed opposite artillery,
cavalry against cavalry, and so on, ac-
eording to circumstances. 1t is only
"devils dressed in red and white" who
go up-as the gallant little division of
infantry at the Alma did-and, contra
~ to all rules of strategy, take bate
~ of artillery in the face of an aston
ished foe."
