The United Service Journal
AND
NAVAL AND MILITARY MAGAZINE.


This new and interesting miscellany is regularly published by Messrs.
COLBURN AND BENTLEY every month, price 3s 6d. The following opinion
will at once demonstrate its claims on the attention of the public.

    "The United Service Journal is confessedly one the best periodicals
    of its kind that have ever issued from the Public Press. No Monthly
    Journal has yet appeared so devotedly attached to the interests
    of the Army and Navy, or whose claims to the patronage of both
    services are so strikingly conspicuous. It is full of agreeable
    anecdote and useful information. In its pages we find a faithful
    and most interesting record of past achievements, whether on sea
    or land, diversified by many characteristic traits of British
    heroism, and national gallantry, from the lowest to the highest
    rank in the Service. New improvements in gunnery, navigation, and
    the art of War, are exposed to view with the commanding powers of a
    master hand, while no subject is omitted which could by possibility
    involve the honour and welfare of our Army and Navy. In fine, the
    Journal affords a correct summary of all changes in the station
    of Regiments and Ships of the line, besides an authentic return
    of the Promotions in the Red and the Blue. Independently of the
    attractions it has for a military man, this periodical may be read
    with much pleasure by a civilian, and we feel much gratification in
    stating that it enjoys a very considerable patronage."—_Limerick
