THE LONDON MAIL of November 24th arrived at Bombay December 25th (per Feroze).

GOVERNMENT SAVINGS BANK.-Bombay Castle, Nov. 23, 1852.-Notice is hereby given, that so much of the 12th rule of the Government Savings Bank as directs transfers to be made to the 4 per. cent. loan on a depositor's account accumulating to Rupees (500) five hundred, is cancelled, and, in lieu thereof, these sums will now be transferred to the 34 per cent. loan, advertised in the Calcutta Gazette of the 28th October, 1853, or to such loan as may be open in the absence of any instructions to the contrary from the depositor.

A. MALET, Chief Sec. to Gov.

LIEUT. R. F. BURTON.-The friends of the talented author, Lieut. R. F. Burton, of the 18th Bombay N.I., will be glad to learn that he was alive and well at Suez on the 7th October, when the mail left. He had just returned to that city after a trip through the Hejar, having visited Medina and Mecca, and gone through all the ceremonies of the pilgrimage: he does not, however, we believe, intend prefacing his name with that of Hadji, although he has performed the haj. Lieut. Burton had amongst other things collected a variety of geological specimens in his tour; and there can be little doubt that the observations made during his travels will be laid before the world in a short time. He is already favourably known in literary circles.-Bombay Times.

H.M.'s 8TH REGT.-We have much pleasure in giving prominent insertion to the following order issued by Brigadier-Gen. Stalker, C.B., under date the 12th instant, on the departure of H.M.'s 8th regt. from Deesa :-" The brigadier-general commanding cannot permit H.M.'s 8th, the King's regiment, to quit the division, without recording the very high sense he entertains of its efficiency in every respect. The uniform good conduct of the men, and the almost total absence of drunkenness, afford the strongest evidence that the discipline of the corps is of the highest order, which reflects the greatest credit upon Lieut.-Col. Hartley, and all under his command. The harmony and gentlemanly bearing, which have been ever conspicuous amongst the officers, and the cordial and friendly feelings which have marked their intercourse with those of other corps with whom they have been associated, will render their departure a subject of deep regret to all, to none more so than to the brigadier-general himself, who has had so many opportunities of forming a correct estimate of their worth. The brigadier-general will never cease to take a lively interest in H.M.'s 8th, the King's regiment, and nothing will afford him more gratification than to hear of success attending their arms whenever employed, and he begs to assure Lieut.-Col. Hartley, and all under his command, that they carry with them his (Brig.-Gen. Stalker's) sincere wishes for their welfare and prosperity."

RAILWAY MANAGEMENT.-The editor of the Bombay Gazette has visited the railway-works beyond Tannah, and supplies us with some curious information upon trifling matters connected with railway management in India. In cleaning an engine and boiler, he says, forty coolies are equal to about one English workman. In Bengal we may assume the same proportion, with one point of difference. The forty natives injure the boiler in the process, while the one Saxon does not. Another authority, however, gave a different story, from actual experience. Sixteen men and eight women have been employed to do the work of two "navvies." Even artisans were inferior, in the proportion of three to one, though in certain trades, requiring trained men, they were nearly equal. The rate of speed generally attained, moreover, is said to be only eighteen miles an hour, including stoppages.

ONE OF THE PRINCES OF CANDAHAR has commissioned an agent in Bombay to engage an Englishman as tutor to his son. His highness will pay the teacher's expenses, and allow him Rs. 600 a month. He must remain five years in Candahar, and will be furnished with suitable lodgings. The opportunity is an admirable one for any traveller who desires to make himself thoroughly acquainted with this portion of Central Asia, and can endure a certain amount of hardship. It would also offer an excellent opportunity for Government to plant an influential secret agent in the very heart of the enemy's country.

GOVERNMENT GENERAL ORDERS.

SECURITY BONDS.

Bombay Castle, Dec. 7, 1853.-With reference to the General Regulations published in G. G. O., dated March 13, 1850, No. 184, regarding securities from public servants in the military department, the Right Hon. the Governor in Council is pleased to resolve, in addition thereto, that every public servant of the above description, whose appointment may be held on a security bond, shall, on the 1st of January and 1st of July, in each year attach to any abstract, including his pay and allowances for the month immediately preceding, a return of sureties, in the following form:

It is to be clearly understood that the above rule does not absolve from the necessity of making an immediate report of the death or disqualification of sureties to the Hon. Company's solicitor as already ordered.

It will be the duty of the Military Accountant and Auditor General to communicate, when necessary, with the Hon. Com. pany's solicitor on all matters connected with security bonds; and any irregularities which are not satisfactorily explained or rectified by the parties concerned, are to be reported to Government by these officers without delay.

By order of the Right Hon. the Gov. in Council,
T. MAUGHAN, Lieut.-Col., Sec. to Government.

EXAMINATION OF SUBALTERNS.

Head-Quarters, Poona, Nov. 12, 1853.-1. The Commander. in-Chief is pleased to establish as a rule, that no subaltern officer shall in future be considered eligible for appointment to the com mand of a troop or company, until he shall have been examined by a committee of officers, in his theoretical and practical knowledge of his parade and other regimental duties, and shall be reported by such committee to be qualified for the command. 2. The qualifications required are as follews :

For a Troop or Company of Artillery.

I. A good practical knowledge of Parts I. and II. of the Book of Field Exercises and Evolutions of the Army.-II. A good prac tical knowledge of the field-battery exercises for horse or foot artillery.-III. A thorough knowledge of the constitution and establishment of a troop of horse or battery of foot artillery, the

-

mode of payment of the men, the rules regulating their enlistment, discharge and pension rules, and Articles of War, the rules regu. lating good-conduct pay and distinguishing marks for good con. duct, the rations and messing, the canteen system and other points concerned, with the interior economy of a troop or company. IV. The equipment of the battery, the different kinds of ammunition used, the use of each under different circumstances, use of the several implements and articles of equipment, mode to be observed for the preservation of the ammunition, the repair of the carriages and harness, and of the responsibility of the officer in command as respects his contracts and gun contingent allow

For a Company of Infantry.

A good practical and theoretical knowledge of Parts I. II. and V. of the Book of Evolutions and Field Exercises of the Army, the interior management of a company, and acquaintance with the Mutiny Act, Articles of War, and general regulations of the service.

3. Officers commanding brigades and stations will be pleased to convene committee accordingly, upon application from regimental commanding officers, to be composed of a field officer, captain, and adjutant, of which the president and a member should belong to the same branch of the service as the candidate, and one or other of them to the same regiment.

The examination of artillery subalterns will be arranged by the Commandant of Artillery, and as from the detached state of thecorps it may sometimes be found impracticable to assemble such committees, the Commandant's opinion as to the fitness of the party for com. mand will be held sufficient until a favourable opportunity offers of testing his acquirements in the manner prescribed, the result of which in all such cases is to be specially reported for the Commander-in-Chief's information.

4. The committees are to frame their reports agreeably to the following form :—

Report.-The committee has examined Ensign or Lieut. A. B., of the regiment, in the theoretical and practical knowledge of his parade and other regimental duties, as also into his acquaintance with the Mutiny Act, Articles of War, and General Military Regulations, and is of opinion that he is (not) qualified to command a troop or company (as the case may be). By order of his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, (Signed) E. GREEN, Lieut.-Col., Actg. Dep. Adj.-Gen. of the Army.

FIELD EXERCISE OF THE TROOPS. Head-Quarters, Poona, Dec. 22, 1853.-The field exercise for which the under-mentioned troops have been assembled at Poona being concluded, the Commander-in-Chief cannot forbear from expressing to the army at large the gratification he has derived from the proof given of its high state of efficiency in every respect by that portion of it (embracing every arm) he has thus had the opportunity of personally inspecting.

Poona irregular horse.

1st comp. 1st batt. art., with No. 2 light field batt. -4th comp. 4th batt. art., with No. 4 light field batt. 5th comp. 4th batt. art., with battery."

Detachment under command of Capt. Hunt.

The excellent manner in which the field movements have been performed, and the perfect acquaintance with their various field duties evinced by the officers and soldiers generally (European and native), merit his lordship's warm approbation; and, together with the exemplary conduct of the men during the time the troops have been assembled, fully attest the admirable discipline that pervades all ranks.

The Commander-in-Chief cordially thanks Brigadier Trydell, the officers of the head-quarters and Poona divisional and brigade staff, and officers commanding regiments, for the able assistance

they have afforded him; and his lordship requests that his high approbation may be communicated to the non-commissioned officers and soldiers of the several corps and detachments of Poona.
