THE LATEST MILITARY SCANDAL. —The circum-
staosee of the hams in the 11th Humus, which was made
known in the Mail of yeetardey, ere to be investigated liden
a general court martial, which a to commence its sitar's at
the Royal Barrack, at 11 o'clock to-morrow. The °N OM to
be tried directly is the veterinary surgeon, Xr. Anthony
bat there is good reason to believe that, as in the ease et die
4th Dragoon Guards,the proceedings will involve many ether
parties. The charge preferred seder* the mile-
nasty =WWI is that he gave Comet Delasser,
of the 11th Hussars, the lie and • blow,- seder
the influence of great provocation. It is bee far as
to prejudge the circumstances of this manias eses, bat
we do not shriek from saying that the predeetien 01 1$
before the public is but another proof added to that fur-
bished by the trial of Captain Robertson, that the whole
system of discipline in the arm ropures »Mace. It

wrong from top to bottom, and the evil his now attained to
the serious point of an organimtion of cabals in the ranks,
growing out of the misconduct and angentlemanlike qaar-
rels of the Mikan. This, we have reason to believe, is the
state of affairs now existing in the Fourth Dragoon Guards,
and the blame of it rests, primarily, indeed, upoe thee:dowel
and staff officers of the district, bat ultimately, and ia the
largest proportion, upon his Royal Higbee.; the Gemini
