THE A RAIY.

Two companies of the Gth Foot arrived here,
from Leeds on Wednesday (30th ult.) and were
shipped on board the Borodino transport, for St.
Helena. The remainder of the regiment is ex-

pected to-day and to-morrow (4th and sth in-
stant),. and will do the garrison duty here until
the arrival, we understand, of the 7th Fusileers.—
(Hall Packet.)
The first division of the gallant 95th, consist-

ing of three companies, le?C Brighton yesterday
morning (Tuesday, the sth instant) ; and the
whole of the regiment will, very shortly, pro-
ceed to embark fora foreign deStination ; we
believe Malta, or one of the lonian Islands. The
gentlemanly conduct of the Officers, and high
discipline of the men, have deservedly obtained
then much esteem; so that the departure of
the corps will be a source of regret to the
fashionables, and to .the inhabitants generally.—

" We, inhabitants of Halifax, beg to address ourselves

conduct, during 18 months that. you have been stationed
amongst us. '
" Part of this period has been one of alarm at least, irnot of
danger ; and you have exhibited yourselves, not only as orderly
and peaceable citizens, but as the prompt and efficient de.
fenders, (and the point was just at issue,) of our lives and prc.
perties.
" We assure you, that we sincerely lament your departure,
but we are confident you will continue to shew, as you always
have done, that your duty to your King and Country, and that
the honour and well earned fame of the 6th Regiment, are the
objects dearest to your hearts, alike in the hilly regions of tl.e
West-Riding, or on the rock of St. Helena.
" Our prayer is, that Providence may in all things shield and
support you."
