Regulations Of The British Army.

REGULATIONS OF THE BRITISH ARMY .

The changes foreshadowed in the recent parliamentary debates on the titles , composition , and uniforms , as affecting the officers and men of the infantry of the line and militia , may be looked upon now as an accomplished fact . By the issue of a special order ( a copy of which can be obtained , post free , at Kenning's Gold

Lace Manufactory , Little Britain , London ) by His Royal Highness the Ficld-Alarshal Commanding-in-chief , dated 14 th April , iSSi , on and after the ist July , 1 SS 1 , the infantry branch of the service , which has hitherto consisted of 110 regiments of regulars : ( including the Rifle Brigade ) and some 130 regiments of militia , each bearing its own distinctive title , will be linked together and form 66

territorial regiments . The proportions of the composition being in England , Scotland , and Walesfourbattalions , two of regulars ; the remaining two will be formed out of the existing militia . In Ireland , live battalions , two of regulars , three of militia . In certain cases where more than the requisite number of militia battalions exist , it is intended either to absorb them or convert them into Engineers or Artillery ;

this will be a matter for future consideration . The titles hitherto borne by some of the infantry regiments will be abolished , thus for example the 107 th ( Bengal Infantry ) will be linked as the 2 nd battalion of the Royal Sussex Regiment , the 35 th Regiment forming the ist battalion , the remaining two battalions consisting of the present Royal Sussex Alilitia . One of the

most important changes effected by the order is thcaltcration in thc laces , badges , & c , hitherto worn . Up to the present time each regiment ( regular and militia ) has had its own special badge and lace ; in future only three patterns'in laces are to be worn by the territorial regiments : English and Welsh Regiments , gold rose pattern ; Scotch Regiments , gold thistle pattern ; Irish JRcgiments , gold shamrock pattern . The silver laces and badges hitherto worn by

militia regiments are abolished ; all must wear gold of the pattern adopted by the territorial regiment ; to which they belong . The question of badges , & c , at present is not finally decided . The facings for the new regiments have also undergone a change , Royal regiments of each country wearing blue , other regiments—English , white ; Scotch , buff ; Irish , green . Space will not permit us going further into details at present ; in a future issue we may recur to the subject .
