7th Dragoon Guards—The squadron at Carlisle,
under Major Bolton, and that at Newcastle, under
Captain Richardson, were inspected by the Major-Ge-
neral commanding the northern district on Monday and
Tuesday last, who expressed himself much pleased a►t
the appearance and efficiency of the men and horses,
which, considering those at Carlisle have been in billets
for the last three months, reflects much credit on the
officers belonging to that squadron.
2d Dragoons—Captain Macquarie's troop arrived in
Ballincollig, county Cork, Oct. 22, and joined head-
quarters. The removal of this troop from Limerick
was occasioned by a spree, in which a few of the officers

vestigation at one of the public tribunals in Limerick.
Captain Griffith's troop marched into Limerick gar-
rison on Friday from Cahir, and will remain. The
Queen's approval has been obtained to the regiment
bearing on its guidons the motto, " Second to nome."
