THE .EXPEDITION.

- _
1160 AT 1. JUNE 29.
This afternoon five companies of the 2d Light
Battalion of the German Legion embarked fin
board transports in the harbour, and immediately
sailed for the Downs ; where, it is said, they are to
remain a few days, until joined by other corps.
The above are a remarkably fine le.dy of men, and
have behaved very orderly during their stay at
Ratingen. They have praaised constantly with
their rifie-pieces, and ate, in general, very expert
and good marksmen; and, if we may judge tram
appearances, these Mtn will do their duty well in
the field of alio°.
There ij a part of several of the battalions of the
German Legion lying in the Dawns yet. No or-
ders had arrived this afternoon concerning a conti-
nuation of the embarking here. There is a number
of transports in the harbour ready for troops Some
came in yesterday. Ssveral corps are at (-doter-
bay, which are ell:teat.' hourly to restive orders to
watch to this place.
