THE ROYAL IRISH.
The Daily Southern Cross, of the 29th April, publishes the following from its Wanganui correspondent’:—“ It is supposed that the distribution of the 18th Regiment will be as follows: Four companies and : head- quarters to Auckland, two companies to Wellington, two companies to Wanganui, one company to Napier, and one company to New Plymouth. ..The men of the battalion are eager to get out of this part of the country, having been located here since January, 1865, since which time many a man in the bloom of health and vigour has bit the dust through what is called “pomp and circumstance of glorious war.” The Aburiri arrived here yesterday, and it. is supposed will be employed for a while conveying the several detachments of the 18th to their several new stations. All the outpost 9up the country are.being abandoned, and the toops are on their way to Patea.” The forgoing may be quite correct as regards the other Provinces, but we believe that so far as Hawke’s Bay is concerned, it is not verified by any official authority.
