CABOOL.

We quoted in a former issue a return of the forces lately at.
Cahoot, published by the Delhi Gazette of the 22d January,
which we believe is very nearly, if not altogether, correct. '1 he
troops enumerated in this return as present at the outbreak of
the insurrection, were—her Majesty's 44th Regiment ; the sth
Bengal Cavalry; the sth, 37th, and 54th Bengal N. 1. ; An-
derson's Horse • 2 Rissalahs of Local Horse; one Shah's Re-
giment of Artillery ; and the Sappers aryl Miners-5,500 in
all, with about 6,000 camp followers. On turning to " Rush-
ton's Army List" fur 1811 (that of 1842 has not yet reached
us), we find the fo lowing are the officers belonging to each of
the Regiments, and who—so far as see can learn—appear to
have been at Cabool on the 2d of November :

dalluck on the 10th of January, and now in captivity at

ditto; Adjutant R. Kipling, ditto; Quarter-Mastcr R. R.
Halahan, ditto ; Surgeon J. Harcourt, ditto ; Assistant-Sur-
geon W. Balfunr, ditto; ditto W. Primrose, M.D., ditto. This
regiment appears to have lost in all 33 officers subsequent to
the evacuation 01 Cabool ; four had fallen before ; 10 seem to
be absent on leave.

Caleool ; Bryce (in charge), killed in Tezeen Pass, 42 miles
from Cabool, on the 6th January.
A squadron of this regiment, under charge of Captain Old-
field, accompanied Sir Robert Sale on his march. They are
now at Jellalabad : we are not aware of the names of the officers
along with them—those of Captain Oldfield and Cornet Plow-
den being alone mentioned .in Sir R. Sale's despatches. In
giving eleven as the number missing, or known to be killed,
we have probably somewhat exceeded the truth. It is the 2d
squadron which is with Sir R. Sale.

Oliver, killed on the 23d of November : Major S. Swayne,
not heard of since evacuation of Cabool; Captains—J. Jervis,

geon W. • Brydon (4-h L. C.) the only officer that has as yet
reached Jellalabad from Cabool army, arrived 12th Jan. ; E.
Campbell, not heard of since evacuation of Cabool.
This regiment seems to have had sixteen officers along with
it on leaving Cabool. Dr. Brydon, who reached Jellalabad on
the 12th January. is alone left to tell the tale of the fearful fate
of the others. Colonel Oliver and Captain Mackintosh were
killed at Cabool about the 23d November.
