THE ARMY.

(From the Limerick Chronicle.)
Captain D'Urban, 25th regiment, from Armagh, yesterday
relieved Captain Dickson, of the same, on detachment to Car-
rickmacross.
Orders have been issued for a new method of saluting for
infantry officers, both on the move and when at open rank for

David Walker, Esq., Deputy Judge Advocate-General, has
left Dublin for England.

Lieut.-Colonel Arbuthnot, of the 90th Light Infantry, has
proceeded to England on leave of absence, and the command
of the regiment at Naas has devolved on Major Mackay.
On Friday, the 90th Light Infantry, stationed at Naas,
proceeded from their quarters in marching order, under the
command of Major Slade, taking the direction of Sallins,
through Kerdiffstown, skirmishing in extended order, till they
arrived at Palmerstown House, the hospitable mansion of the
Earl and Countess of Mayo. His Lordship, with his usual
urbanity, proceeded to meet this distinguished corps in the
demesne, where Major Slade and his officers were invited by
his Lordship to partake of a collation, the regiment taking up
a position in open column in front of Palmerstown House.
During the time the officers were partaking of his Lordship's
hospitality, the non-commissioned officers and soldiers were
regaled with strong beer, the band and bugles playing alter-
nately, to the great amusement of the company at Palmers-
town. Major Slade, who is an excellent disciplinarian, then
formed line, and with open ranks ordered a general salute, the
band playing " God save the King," which concluded with the
troops giving three hearty cheers to the Earl and Countess of
Mayo and their company, with an addition of " one cheer
more." The officers and soldiers then proceeded to Naas,
highly delighted with the reception they experienced at this
hospitable mansion.
The Scots Fusileer Guards leave Dublin, for London, the

splendid gold whip, and they have got up a sweepstakes of
100 sovs. for horses bona fide the property of officers of the
regiment ; to be ridden by the owners.
