BRIGN7OIT.OOTOBER lg.

The Ennilkillen Dragoons, the greater pllt .1
them, marched from hence yefterday, for LC/•r..
middle remainder for Shoreham, &c. today.
4th dragoons from Lewes halted here yellerday, ar d
re-commenced their march, we believe for Arundel
and Chichefter, this morning. Part of the 11l reg,
meta of dragoons, from Cluchener, &c. marched imu
the barracks and town bete yefterday, and the re.
minder to-day.
The departure of the Ennifkillens from this place
is here univerfally regretted. The Officers, as ac.
complilbed gentlemen, and good foldiers, are de.
fervedly etleemed t and the brave veterans under then
controul are deferring of fueh Commanders.

Several unfounded rumours having been circulated
refpeiling the time fixed on for the launching of the
OctAn built in the Dockyard at Woolwich, we can
Rate for certain that that beautiful (hip, which hi,
been thirteen years (the Era of this prefcnt month,
laid down, and which is the largell of her clafs in the
Navy, as well as the largeß ever built on the Weer
Thames, will be launched on Tburfday the 24thinft
about half pall one o'clock.

The firli brigade of Guards now down at the
Goak together with the 4th, 14th, and 23d rev-
tnents of foot, have received orders to embark to ac-
company the German Legion. They are to be fol.
lowed by a fecund embarkation, which will chiefly
confill of cavalry.
The Guards march from Dover Ibis day and to.
Morrow for Rsafgate, where they are ordered to
embark. Lord Folass' Brigade is expelled to re-
plant them at Dover.

The 23c1 Royal Welch Fuzileers, and r4th Ref.
punt of Foot, who only usarehed a few days ago
into winter quarters at Lewes, received a very fudden
apd unexpeaed route to march forthwith to Rent :
on Friday laft they received counter orders to pro-
ceed, by forced marches to Plymouth. It is fuppofed
they will embark there to join the Expedition under
the gallant Sir SIMI FT SMITH. It is unneceituy In
comment on what may be expeaed from the reful;
al an expedition compact* of tech dillipguaed rcgi.
meats.

The prrifon of Edinburgh at prefent, confills of
the Invernefslhire, Argylethire, and Aberdeenfhite

BOSAPARTIOS new Corp' of Light Horfemen, to
be called the Velites, or nimble eller," are all to be
chofen men, and are dellined to ferve las a fort of
fource of fupply to his guard of honour. We cannot
but remark one extraordinary requifite prefcribed for
the recruits of this corps : as if afraid that the fidelity
of poor men could not be relied upon, the Emperor
ordains, that no man (hall be adMitted as a “eirable"
unlefe he potlifs a clear and certain income of 3on
f-
lings a year. Had this corps been beating up for
recruits of this defcriptinn a few years ago, we doubt
much if his Inspetial Mikity himfelf could have
proved his title to enlilt.
Saturday fe'nnight, the Duke of York's Battalion
of Volunteer Royal Artillery, at Plymouth Dock,
ander the command of Lieutenant Colonel Rawer,
came off permanent duty, having been engaged 11
days in improving themlelves in the Field Piece, Bat-
tery Gun, Mufquet and Pike exercifes ; during abide
time they availed themlelves of the affiltance and
inflrnetions given them (under the direflions of Bri-
gadier General STIPHINS, who is Colonel of the de-
tachment of Royal Artillery Rationed at that place,)
in a manner which razes on them the greatell credit.
We have had occafion at various times to (peak much
in praife of this excellent and ufeful battalion, and
than only now add the terms in which the General,
(who reviewed them the Friday before,) was pleafed
to exprefs hind...lf-4, More and more pleated with
their military appearance, Rcadinefs and difcipline,
each time he taw them."
Yetlerday fe'nnight, the Roboroogh Batallion of
Volunteet Infantry, Lieuteaant-Colonel Sir Ma-
ss*H Loves, marched from Plymouth Dock, hav-
ing been Uationed at that place for fourteen days, on
permanent duty. This is the firft time the Battalion
has affembled on Inch duty,. and it is but jultice to
fay, that confidering the short period, they acquitted
themlelves as zealous and deferving foldiers. They
were reviewed on the Grand Government Parade r 3
Friday fe'nnight, by Lieutenant• General EVCLAND,
who partook of an excellent dinner with the Otric..l.
of the Battalion, and a feleet party of their ieadt.
Saturday the cafe of military exemption from tom.
pike roll was again difciilfed at the Q.2aen (pure
Office. The quctlion originated fume tune (ince on
toll being demanded at Pimlico from Captain La s E.
of the London Militia, who was going in his own
carriage to attend a Count•martial at Chelfea. It
was contended that, by the Mutiny tiffs of Elie 44th
and 45th of Geo. 111. all officers and foldiers on dray,
and on march, than be exempt from toll, as Welt a.
all King's carriages, waggons, carts, &c. for the con.
veyance of military Rote+ or baggage; and th..t.
Captain LIME, although in his own carriage, carte
within the meaning of the law, being on his ?ii 4.
fervice.—Mr. PHILIPS and Mr. CoLof itoo•
thought that the conveyance of an officer in a private
carriage did not come within the exemption ; but
they recommended that the queffion Mould be re-
ferred to a fuperior Cutlet, is *latch all the packs
mcutted.
