London, October 25.  They talk of a second augmentation of
the Foot Guards to 100 men in each company, that was so very
hot sometime ago, seems now entirely to be ceas'd, their
present complement, which is 84 men, (Officer: serjeants,
and drums included) being judg'd a sufficient number, and
makes in the three regiments 5300 and odd men.
