Lord Wolseley has issued a special order on assuming the command of the Army, in which he assure the late Commander-in-Chief of the affectionate regard of all who have served under him during his long period of office. It will be Lord Wolseley's endeavour, in the discharge of the high dailes intrusted to him, to maintain the great traditions of the British Army, to further the well-being of the soldier, and to, encourage the progress called for by the unceasing advance in warlike' appliances and in | rflitery knowledge which marks this age.
