Yesterday morning, about half-past 8 o'clock, the
Royal Regiment of Horse Guards left the Cavalry
barracks at Spital, en route for London. There were
about 280 mounted, the officers including Colonel
Williams, Capt. Ives, Lieut. M'Alpine, Capt. Lord
Garlies, Cornet the Marquis of Worcester, &c. The
regiment on arriving in the metropolis took up its
quarters at the Regent's Park-barracks. The dis-
mounted men, about 75 in number, commanded by
Lieut. Haywood and Cornet Guinness, left Windsor
at 10 55 by the Great Western Railway. The 2d
Regiment of Life Guards, under the command of
Col. Marshall, left the Knightsbridge-barracks early
in the morning for Windsor, with Col. Palmer, Capt.
Stewart, Capt. Ewart, Capt. Curzon, Capt. Ste-
phens, Capt. Sir S. Hayes, Capt. Rowley, &c.
The main strength of the corps marched by road to
Windsor, where they arrived at half-past 12 o'clock,
and proceeded to the cavalry barracks at Spital,
just vacated by the Royal Horse Guards. The day
was fine and warm.
Great progress is being made with the additional
infantry quarters at the Sheet-street Barracks,
Windsor. An extensive range of brick buildings,
capable of accommodating upwards of 30 married
soldiers, has been erected on the north side of the
old barracks. The new quarters are well contrived,
there being two upper stories, which are reached by
means of staircases, and protected from the weather
by verandahs. A spacious block of buildings, de-
signed to accommodate the staff sergeants, has also
been erected at the back of the houses on the south
side of Victoria-street, and operations are in pro-
gress for the construction of other buildings by
Messrs. Myers, the contractors. Lieut. Luard, R.E.,
has the supervision of the works for the War De-

partmen t.

himself to a tailor, and who was cured of deafness and
tailoring propensities by the application of a large pair of
