THE' TYNE YEOMANRY

(rn.om A CORN F.PONDENT.)
. •
dte.Sliead (Durban)), ',March 13.
On Tlitivsciay, the 13th'instant, the Tyne Y.eo-
.
mariry.Hussar," commanded by Lieutenant-Q(4onel
Campbell,: .was formally disbaz4ed, -in conformity
with the Government Cirettlir of the .stlt Decem-
ber last. •

- In taking"leave of the Regiment, Lieutenant-Co-
lonel Campbell's sentiments were expressed, ,in
Regimental OrderS; as' follows :---
"Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Mardi 13, 1828.
" His Ma)esty's Government having discontinued
the services of most of the Yeomanry Corps imsthe
kingdom, it devolves upon the Commanding Officer
of the Tyne Hussars, to inform the" Officers; Non,
commissioned Officers, an PriVates of the Regi-
ment, that they are now relagelt front their rAitary
engagements in the Corps; and in making this com-
munication, Lieutenant-Colonel Campbell begs .to
return his sincere thanks to them-for the gratifying
attention he has at all times experienced, during the
many years that he has served.in the Regiment, and
more particularly for the zeal and alacrity evinced in
obeying his orders, during the period he has had.the
honour of commanding them; and should the same
causes recur which "induced the formation of the
Regiment thirty-four years ago, Lieutenant-Colonel
Campbell is confident that the members of the late
Tyne Hussars %till be amongst the first in the king-
dom to Show their loyalty and patriotism by again
coming forward in defence of their King rind
Country."
We cannot help observing, that if the strict letter
of Lord Lansdowne's official Circular had been at-
tended to, viz.--to release " all. Corps of Yeomanry
Cavalry in those districts where :it' has been found,
from the experience of the lastten years, they have
been very seldom or never called upon to act in aid
of the Civil Power, &c.!,'—the actual disbandment
of the alioi'esorps would not now
-have taken place;
because it so happened, in point of fact, that from
the year 1817 to I*27—being the. last ten years--
the Tyne Yeomanry Hussars, from being located in
a part of the country densely populated with sea-
men, keeltrien; pitmen, &c. (whose refractoriness is
but too well known at certain periods), have Wen
called out in aid of the Civil Power more frequently,
perhaps, than, any other Yeomanry Corps in. the
Kingdom,. those alone excepted which are in the
immediate vicinity of Manchester, and some other
great manti;Leturing places in Lancashire.,

The Magistrates of Newcastle-upon-Tyne,
that the Lord Lieutenant of the county of. Durham
had acted with the utmost celerity in transmitting
his official instructions respecting Lord Lansdowne's
Circular, to Lieutenant-Colonel Campbell,•convened
a General Meeting of the. Magistracy and Deputy
Lieutenants of that town, for the purpose of taking
into consideration the propriety of stating to his
Majesty's Government their views of the sweeping
measure about to take place by the disbanding the
Yeomanry Force in the neighbourhood of that
populous town. The result was,.that a communi-
cation was made to the Duke' of Northumberland
(Lord-Lieutenant for the town and county of New-
castle-upon-Tyne), representing the necessity of a
larger force of regular troops being stationed at
Newcastle, in case- Lieutenant-Colonel Bell's corps
should be disbanded, as well as the Tyne Hussar:.
It was no doubt in .a great measure owing to this
circumstance that the Northumberland Yeomanry
Cavalry were kept together.
Whatever may have been Lora Lansdowne's
views, there is no doubt_ that the Yeomanry force
was pre-eminently constitutional, perfectly adapted
to the freedom of our laws, and, in the recent state
of organization,- capable of,renderin!! the most im-
portant services to the empire. "Nor, gainsay it
who may, can it he denied, that in the present state
of affairs, this country must :keep
.up a -powerful
military establishment at home. In case, of foreign
emergency (and who, dare say that that is a remote
contingency, under the actual aspect of the. political
horizon ?) with such a .body of men as a reserve,
we had the means. of rendering our whole standing
army a ready di3posahle force. Ireland, too, must
not be overlooked, that combustible portion of the
empire, where strong excitement so frequently issues
in rebellious acts, as soot) as England haS to con-
tend against foreign apressitin. 'A very consider
able portion of the community, undoubtedly highly
*disapprove of the,tutuing adrift of the Yeomanry.
The measure, in fact, has been condemned by the
most respectable authorities, and justly so, as one
equally impolitic and pitiful. The paltry saving it
is calculated to afford, is beneath the notice of all en-
ligh'ened qateSraan, when that saving could2only
'be attained by cOmpromiAing an object of great na-
tional welfare.

• It was, indeed, well observed elsewhere, that " A
wise GoYerunient would as soon have cut. off and
cast away its.right hand, as strip the kingdom in this
way, at one blow, of its mailed and martial armour,
for the sake of an evanescent item in its annual eN-
pendittne:"
One word in conclusion, as to the -Tyne Yeo-
manry flusSars As has' been stated in the Regi-
mental Or6is, the Corps has existed since the year
1794,, it ..)eing then first embodied under the com-
mand of Lieutenant-Colonel Pearethi of Usworth
House.. How often they have. been called, upon to
aid the civil power, both in the county of Durham,
and in Northumberland, it is not necessary to state,
precisely ; though it may be safely averred, that,
upon all occasions affecting the public peace (and
these, front' various -causes, have not been few in
this neighbourhood during the last 34 years), their
able services—rendered ,with mildness, and yet
efficiently—have essentially contributed to the pre-
servation of order, and, in fact, have .very frequently
accelerated the moment of tranquillity.
It rs suPerfluons to remark, that the excellent
con It:t of the'regiment, upon ail occasions, his
created an impression in their favour which Will,
doubtless, brig be cherished in the North. And
to be held it honourable estimation is unquestion-
ably one of the highest rewards of civic virtue.
After the swords, 'pistols, 8.:c.) were 'delivered
into. depot, Lietit.-ColOnel Campbell very liberally
presented•each man with his clothing and horse ap
pointments. The day. terminated with a grand dinner
given by the Commanding Officer, at Dodswortb's,
.the Queen's Head-inn, Newcastle.

Among the-military men who haVe' distinguished
theniselVes (hiring the last half century, perlraps few
, indiirittuals have equalled the late Sir Alan Ca-
meroil "in bravery and energetic zeal,
By birth a Highlander, in heart and soul a true

_manly menu-
taineer, he early acquired considerable,inffuence in

Ardent and i)ersever4icr in whatever .he .nnder-
took, when the 4rnerican war began; he (devoted
himself enthusiastically in his country's cause. Un-
fdrtunately, however, when on detached service, he
was taken prisoner of war, and:immured:vindictively,
for nearly two y,ears, in the common gaol of Phila-
delphia,niale:: the
,plea.that he had been engaged in
excl ling theilative.trilles in favour of, Great Britain.
Tn attempting• to vscape from a confinement so
much at variance with usages of war, Sir Alan had
both his ancles broken and shattered, and he never
perfectly recovered front the.painful effects of these.
injuries.

Roused by the alarms and. dangers of 1793, Sir
Alan Cameron, principally. by his personal influence
over- the minds. Itighlanders, in little more than
OITA!. months
.patriotically raised the 79th, or Ca-
meron Highlanders. .
in accomplishing this, no burden was throWn
the public. Sir Alan Cameron .defrayed the
Whole esperice .out of his own private funds ; no
bounty money . whatever having been. drawn from
Government ; his officers also were taken from the
half,pay list, nor wafatisr:proniotion upon that ocea-
-sign allowed. .

In
.Angust, 1793, Sir Alan was appointed Major-
Commandant of this his clan. regiment; and, in
January, 1,794, Lieutenant-Colonel Commandant of
the same. At the head of his regiMent, during the
latter year, he joined the army in the Netherlands,
under the late Duke of York. - .

In 1795 Sir Alan' proceeded to.the West Indies,
then powerfully. menaced. . Very severe losses were
there sustained by his regiment, and the brave soldier
bad the mortification of seeing the remnant of his
corps drangbted chiefly into the 42d Regiment. Sir
Alan, therefore, returned home. So sensible, how-
ever, was his late Royal Highness of. the value of
his s:,r‘ ices, that. be 1%-as immediately commissioned
to raise the Cameron highlanders anew,. which, by
unceasing exertion, and eonsiderable,pecuniary sacri-
fices, he proudly accomplished in little-more than
six months, notwithstanding .the advanced period of
the -.war.'

. In 1799 Sir Alan again servO„lyith his regiment
on the Continent, under his Royal Highness toe late
Duke of York,, whom he ever proudly considered
as his best benefactor.

In the battle of Bergen-op-Zoom, Sir Alan Was
twice severely wounded.
. In 1801 Sir Alan Cameron served in the, expedi-
tions toFerrol, And in 1801, at the, head
of
,his grave men, he shared the dangersand glorifs
of Alexandria, and endured the hardships and perils
of the Egyptian campaign.
In 1804 Sir Alan and the,Oirers, of Ids regimes'',
in the course of only, tt„ few months,
.and, solely by
recruiting, raised a strong 211 battalion, of 800 rank'
and file, fo,.,generat service. Ile was, Owarded, in
consequence, with the rank of-Coloyel, on the let of
January, 1803
In the descent upon Zealand, Sir Alan, by order
of Lord Cathcart, took military Tossession of Co-
penhagen, at the head of the flank companies of the
army.

In 1808, Sir Alan accompanied his gallant coun-
tryrnan, Sir John, Moore, as Brioudier-Genertl, on
the expecliticn to Sweden; ,and in 1818, to the
Peninsula. Advancing from Portugal, with rein-
foreement, he was placed in a most critical situa-
tion by the sudden and unexpected retreat to Co-
rinna : nevertheless, he succeeded, undergoing-great
fatigue and enduring great privation, in marching
IA force, which had been considerably augmented
on its routeliy convalescents and stragglers, 41s safety
to Lisbon. This very force is generally ecnsideced
very Materially ,o have assisted the Duke of "Wel-
lington in the•successful attack which his Grace soon
afterwardS made upon Studt, at Oporto. ,

At the battle ofTalavera, Sir Alan had two horses
shot under him, when he, took post by the colours
Of one of the regiments of his brigade;. and through-
out: that arduous and eventful day never, indeed,
\Tr.?, energy and gallantry,more .conspienonsly and
effectively displayed.
the action at Thisaco.was the last in NvLich Sir
Akm Cameron was. engaged. He commanded a
brigade, in which hi., own regiment, present
him,
,bore also a part ; extreme ill health then_ 'c'om,,
pelled him to.retire from the active setv'xo of his
country for ever.
On the ,2.5 th of July, 1810, Sl..r Alan was up-
pointed a Major-General,; after th.e peace, a K.C.8.;
and, on the 12th of. August, ISI9, he was made a
Lieutenant-General.

A great sufferer in body from severe infirmities,
contracted by continued exposures and fatigues: on
service, Sir Alan nevertheless lived to an advanced
age. But he was doomed to see his family drop
around , him—his youngest son,' when his aid-de-
camp, early in the Peninsula campaign, from priva-
tions and fatigues—his eldest, when 2-allantlyleading
on the immediate advanee .of the British army at
Fuentes d'Onor,—his nephew and his orphan grand-
son, hOth of whoiti perished from the baneful effects
of IVest Indian service ;: ihe former was he who,
holding only the rank of lieutenant, brayely led on
the Cameron Highlanders at the battle of Waterloo,
when all his superior..otlicers bad been either kille.d
or wounded. Of his own immediate malelind,red,
Sir Alan has left only one son, Lieutenant-Colonel
Cameron, who; until the close of the war, when -thy
corps was disbanded, commanded the. 2d battalion of
the
,Cameron Highlanders, .and who, yesterday, fol-
lowed to the.grave the worn-out remains of his aged
and veteran. parent.

13ENE,VOLENT SOCIETY OF ST. P ATRICK.

'Yesterday the Anniversary Festival of this Society
teas held at the Old London Tavern, on which occa-
,
iori a numerous and respectable company of Gen-
tlemen sat down to an excellent dinner. Lord. Vis-
count Goderich presided on the occasion ; and he
was supported on his right hand by the Dike of
.Leinster, and on his left by the Marquis of Sligo.
Amongst-the company we also notiecd the Marquess
of Londonderry, the MarqueSS of Clanricarde,
Castlereagh, the Vice-Chancellor, Baron de Robeck,
General Sir John Doylo, Bart., Hon. Agar Ellis,
M.P., Mr. Spring Rice, Mr. Villiers. Stuart,
M.P., Mr. J. Fitzgerald, M.P., Mr. Cumbelland,
Sic. Sze.

On the removal of the cloth, " Bencdictus sit
Deus" was sung in fine style by Messrs. Hawes,
C. Taylor, Goulden, Broadhw•st, Horncastle, Mor-
gan,; Atkins, Fitzwilliam, Blewitt, and Masters
Nicholls and Reeve.

The Noble CHAIRJIAN then said, that he had. to
propose to the company to drink the " King's
Health;" and though (on some occasions it might
be supposed that this toast was merely proposed out
of duty and respect, he trusted that such would
not be the impression, on the present occasion,
especially when it was remembered that his Majesty.
had sulmcribed a sum of nearly four thousand pounds
to this Charity—(cheers);—and had given his
Lordship his commands to announce his regular an-
nual subscription of 100/.—(Cheers.)
The toast was then drunk with four times four,
azul loud applause.
_

" God save the King," was snig in fine style.
Lord GODERICH, in proposing the health of the
Royal Family, observed, that his Majesty was not
the only one of his Illusttious Family distinguished
for his munificence. " The health of the Royal
Family" was then drunk with three times three.;..
Glee—" A generous friendship."
The Noble CHAIRMAN then proposed " the Duke
of Clarence;" or, he ought perhaps to say, `.`the
Earl of Munster and the Navy."—Drunk with three
times three.

Song—" Rule, Britannia."
Lord GODERICII said, that the last 'Arne they bad
drank the toast of the army, it had )een under the
direction of Noble Duke who had lee been called
to fill another office, but-of whoM h Aolild say, that
there was not a truer Irishman breathing—(cheers) ;
and though it ,had pleased his Majesty to call upon
that Noble Duke to fulfil another function, it might
be said in a manner that he had left his mantle behind,
and that his former office was still in the' hands of
one of his worthiest followers, who 'would no doubt
discharge his duty with all possible fidelity and
satisfactien. The toast he had to propose was,
" The health of Lord Hill and the British Army"—
(cheers.) '

General Sir JOHN DoYLE returned thanks.

Master Burke, from the Surrey Theatre, and who
had kindly volunteered his services, here recited an
Address which was very well received.. He also
played a fantasia on the violin, in which his tone
and execution, for so young an artist, were re-
markable. Both his efforts were received with loud
applause.
Lord GODERICII, on his health being proposed by
the Marquis of Londonderry, said that the Noble
Marquis had, in his zeal, somewhat overrun the es-
tablished order of the proceedings of the evening;
but for his own part, of course, lie had no objection
to the revers of the olil proverb, " Better late than
never," He was not himself an Irishmaa; but it
watild not, perhaps, be strictly true; were he to sey
that he had no tie to bind him to that country, as
there was one whose feelings must be most dear to
him, who was born in that country (Lady Goderich)
and whose mother was a native of Ireland; she
therefore partook of Irish blood and of liish predilec-
tions; and although it had been the fortune of her
mother to quit that country in early life, yet she still
felt as an Irishwoman should,' and he was sure that
she would be proud when he should report to her
the manner in which that Meeting had been con-
ducted—(Cheers)---and that he should be charged
by her to teach their children (if, indeed, such teach-
ing should be required) the lesson, that the union
of these kingdoms formed the great basis of British
strength-4Cheers)—and that ifthey were separated
they would be but as a bundle of reeds, compared to
their present power. (Cheer's.)
Master Burke sung the song of" Dal by M' Neon,"
composed by Mr. Bleivitt. It was received with
considerable applause.

The Noble' CHAIRMAN said, that he now had to
call the attention of the Meeting to the Charity it-
self. When in Ireland, he had heard their famous
preacher, Dean Kirwan ; but with all his eloquence,
he had preferred, when supporting the objects of a
charity, to refer his hearers to the > ight of the chil-
dren themselves. The bounty displayed to the poer
children saved from the misery of St. Giles's, would
be heard of in the Liberties of Dublin, and in the
Wills of Connamara, softening down those preju-
dices which were too much abroad:-(Cheers.)---
The toast was, " Prosperity to the Benevolent So-
ciety of St. Patrick."

The children then entered.the room, anti walked
round it, headed by the Stewards and Officers of
the Institution : their appearance- -seemed. t 6 " give
general satisfaction.
" The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland."—Drunk with
three times three, and applause. Song, Mr. Mor-
gan---" St. Patrick was.a Gentleman." '
The Noble CHAIRMAN then propOSed, that the
company shotild drink in silence the Memories of
the Duke of York, the Duke of Kent, the Marquis
of Londonderry, the Marquis of Hastings, arid the
Right Hon. George Canning. This last name was
received with excessive cheering, which lasted for
some minutes, and was reiterated from all parts of
the room.

Several other toasts were then drunk, with ap-
propriate songs. Mr.BrOadhurst gratified the com-
pany with one of Moore's Melodies, in which he
was loudly applauded; as was Mr. Fitzwilliam in
singing a new Irish song called "Barney'Brallaghan;'
composed by Mr. Blewitt.
The Health of the, Vice-Presidents," being
.drunk;
The Duke of LEINSTF.R returned thanks.
On the " Health of the Stewards,' being drUnk,

Mr. SPRING RICE returned thanks. It was a de-
light to him to find that when his countrymen were
called away by circumstances from his native land,
they still found occasions—and. those charitable ones
—to meet together.—(Applause.)—The present
Meeting he thought a very happy one, owing to
his Lordship presiding.—(Hear, hear.)—There were
some things that came by birthright, and some
from higher principles ; it was the impulse of the
heart that had brought the Noble Chairman among
them—au impulse which bound men, whether they
were English or Irish, in one common, affection—
(Cheers.)—The education of the Irish ought to be
looked to by the English, that there might be a re-
ciprocal feeling of kindness between them ; for under
all possible circumstances, and under all possible
the interests of the two countries were identified.
Whether they looked at the army—at the navy—
, at manufacture—at agriculture—it was impossible
to conceive that the interest of either country could
be promoted by the separation of the States,—
(Applause.)—.lf Irishmen were obliged to be in
England, they should at least seek out opportunities
to show that they still remembered that they were
Irishmen, and this charity was one of the best they
could embrace ; one of his countrymen might be as
true an Irishman in London as any where—(cheers).
—as firm a patriot, as generous a benefactor; whether
in England or on the Continent, an Irishman ought
to show himself an Irishman still--(cheers)--and he
trusted that this charity would remain in London in
bond of connection between the two countries.
Among the subscriptions we noticed the names of Ms
Majesty, 100 guineas ; Lord Godericb, 501. ; the Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland, 50/. ; Duke of Leinster, 50/. ; Mar-

GAME LAWS.

Lord WHARNCLIFFE, seeing his Noble Friend (the
Marquis of Salisbury) in his place, was desirous of asking
him to postpone the Committee on the Sale of Game Bill
for a week. At present . their Lordships were summoned
for next Thursday for that Committee. The Select Com-
mittee appointed' by-their Lordships to consider the subject
of the Game Laws, had come to certain resolutions, and
bad requested him to draw up their report, which he hoped
to be able to.lay on their Lordships' table to-morrow. There
would be also laid on the table a large body of evidence,
Which it would be necessary for their Lordships to ex-
atn6ie with a view of seeing whether or not it would jus-
tify the report that had been made upon it. It was his in-
tention, whea his Noble Friend's Bill should be in the
Committee, to propose the introduction into it of certain
clauses, embodying the resolutions to which the Select Com-
mittee had come, and therefore he was anxious for the post-
ponement.
- The Marquis of SALISBURY had great
.pleasure in
assenting to the proposition of his Noble Friend, and the
order for, summoning their Lordships oii.Thursty next
was discharged, and they were ordered- to be summoned
on that day week.
Lord WHARNCLIFFE said he was anxious to state, t:-at
the resolutions passed by the Select Committee were agreed
to unanimously by them.
Their Lordships then adjourned.
