7. Brussels. — Lieutenant-Ge- 

 neral G. Murray, Chief of the 

 Staff of the English Army of 

 Occupation, published on the 1st 

 of this month, at the Head-Quar- 

 ters at Cambray, the following 



Order of the Day. 



«' Field-Marshal the Duke of 

 Wellington cannot take leave of 

 the troops whom he had the 

 honour to command, without ex- 

 pressing to them his gratitude for 

 the good conduct which has dis- 

 tinguished them during the time 

 they have been under his orders. 

 It is now nearly three years since 

 the Allied Sovereigns confided to 

 the Field-Marshal the chief com- 

 mand of that part of their forces 

 which circumstances rendered it 

 necessary to keep in France. If 

 the measures which their Majesties 

 commanded have been executed 

 in a manner to give them satisfac- 

 tion, this result must be wholly 

 attributed to the prudent and 

 enlightened conduct manifested 

 on all occasions by their excellen- 

 cies the Generals commanding 

 in chief, to the good example 

 which they have given to the 

 other Generals and officers who 

 were subordinate to them, as 

 well as to the eff"orts of these 

 latter to second them, and lastly, 

 to the excellent discipline which 

 has always prevailed in the con- 

 tingents. 



" It is with regret that the 

 General has seen the moment 

 arrive when the dissolution of 

 this army was to put an end to 

 his public connexions, and his 

 private relations with the com- 

 manders and other officers of the 



corps of the army. The Field- 

 Marshal deeply feels how agree- 

 able these relations have been to 

 him. He begs the Generals com- 

 manding in chief to receive and 

 make known to the troops under 

 their orders, the assurance that 

 he shall never cease to take the 

 most lively interest in every thing 

 that may concern them ; and that 

 the remembrance of the three 

 years during which he has had 

 the honour to be at their head, 

 will be always dear to him. 



(Signed) ♦' G. Murray, 

 " Lieut.-General, and Chief of 

 the Staff of the Allied Array." 



" Kexv palace, Nov. 8. 

 " The Queen passed the even- 

 ing of yesterday very uncomfort- 

 ably, and has had a restless night ; 

 but there is no material alteration 

 in her Majesty's symptoms.

9. This day being Lord Mayor's- 

 day, Alderman Atkins was sworn 

 in, at Westminster, with the

Extraordinary Suicide. — ( From 

 a Newcastle paper. ) — It has 

 fallen to our lot, as journalists, to 

 record one of the most lamentable 

 and most singular occurrences of 

 self-destruction we ever heard or 

 ever read of. It is entirely with- 

 out parallel. The names of the 

 unhappy men are John and 

 Lancelot Younghusband. We 

 know not whether they are more 

 to be lamented as useful membere 

 of society, or for the unprece- 

 dented attachment which subsist- 

 ed between them, as brothers. 

 In business, they were most res- 

 pectable farme/s.and had resided, 

 as tenants, at Heckley-grange,
