THE BATTLES ON THE SUTLEJ.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUS.
SIR,—As an account of the leading officers who consti-
tuted the cavalry division of the army of the Sutlej, which
decided the fate cf the victory of the Sobraon, may be accept-
able to your readers, I will, with your permission, commence
to notice Major-General Sir Joseph Thackwell, who com-
manded it, and who is described in the dispatches as having
gallantly placed himself at the head of one of his brigades,
and forced his way through the Seikh stockade. This gallant
veteran, who lost an arm at Waterloo, and had two horses
killed under him while leading the brave 15th Hussars,
commanded the cavalry division of the army of the Indus in
1839, during the first Affghan war, as well as that of the
army of Gaalior, at the battle of Msharajpore, where he re-
ceived a spent ball on his hip.
Colonel Cureton, who bad charge of the first brigade, and
earned such glorious reputation at Aleewalla, formerly be-
longed to the 14th Light Dragoons, in which corps he
served as a private with great distinction. This fine officer
shared in all the glories of the Peninsula; he commanded a
cavalry brigade at Mabarajpore in 1843, and acted as
Assistant Adjutant-General of Cavalry in the army of the
Indus. In dashing valour he is equal to Murat !
Colonel Scott, who commanded the 2d brigade, and on
whom Sir Hugh Gough pronounces the warmest euloouna
bad charge of a brigade at Matiarajpore, where he earned the
approbation of the Commander-m-Chief. He bids fair to
rival the first cavalry officers. Although he possesses the
valour of Cureton, he has not his experience.
Colonel Campbell, to whom was confided the care of the
3d brigade, has particular claim to our notice. He has par-
ticipated with eclat in all our Peninsular battles. This fine
old soldier commanded a cavalry brigade, including his own
corps, the 9th Lancers, at the battle of Punniar in 1843.
Colonel Harriot, of the 4th brigade, who is attached to the
East India service, established a claim at the battle of
Moodkee to gallantry which could not be surpassed.
Colonels Cureton, Scott, Campbell, and Harriot, are legiti-
mate Brigadiers. Lieut.-Colonel Gough, who held the tem-
porary rank of Brigadier, is a Captain in the 3d Light Dra-
goons.
While England has such leaders, her star will remain in
the ascendant. Our cavalry are not only competent to cut
through infantry squares, but to storm batteries in single
file.—Yours sincerely, A TROJAN.
