•

failed in his endeavour to raisca seco'nd battalion to
the 12th regiment.

The first battalion of the Royal Scots (Duke or
Kent's) is'ordered from the Leeward Islands to Ca.
nada.
Wednesday the Dumfries-shire Yedmanry Cavalry
were inspected by Colonel M‘Mcatio, Inspecting
Field-Officer of the District, accompanied by J.
MURRAY,n Esq. of Mui raythwaite, Vice-Lieutenant ,
of the County. Alter the corps had performed their
different manoeuvres, the Inspecting Field Officer
addressed them in an anini led speech, approving in
the highest terms of their excellent discipline and sol.
dier-like appearance, and stating that he would des-
cribe them to the Commander in Chief as not inferior
to that of any military corps on the same.establish-
ment in the kingdom.
Fiid :y the Penrith Local Militia, commanded by
Colonel de Wiinromat, were reviewed by Colonel
RAWDEN, when they went through their various et°.
lutions in a manner highly creditable.
The American Congress have just passed an Act,
putting a total stop to the barbarous practice of flog.
ging in the American army. Their Military Code
before was very like our own ; now, they have sub.
stituted for the torture of the lash, stoppage of pay,
confinement, and deprivations of part of the rations
allowed.—This is a glorious triumph of humanity !
MANCHESTER, JUNE B.—The Camp on Kersal
.Moor is under such military regulations and ar-
rangements as are requisite for immediate service;
so that the routine of camp duty is strictly ob.
served. To complete the preparation for such se:.
vice, a telegraph is fixed on elevated ground, from
which any necessary information can be commu-
nicated all through the district in a few minutes,—
There are two pieces of artillery on the ground : six
horses are attached to each of these pieces ; a driven
to each pair of horses ; two men stationed on the gun,
and about twelve men on horseback, in attendance.
Last Sunday, at the camp on Kersal-moor, wu exhi.
bited a solemn and impressive scene, that does credit
to the liberality of the times, and we trust, will Se a
presage to the return of tolerating and nnbigoted prin.
ciples. The Roman Catholic part of that highly re-
spected regiment,the Louth Militia, with other soldiers
of the same faith, were brigaded on the ground, and
marched round an altar, raised for the purpose of cele-
brating Mass. The sight of so many huddred warriors,
With their wives and children, on their knees suppli.
cating the Almighty for their country and themselves
in a way most congenial to their inborn feelings, im-
posed a religious silence and interested every spectator.
