ral Salute, having marched past in column of battalions, at quarter
distance, and having reached the original alignment, closed to the
front of battalions, and formed a line of contiguous columns to the
reverse flank on the leading battalion, thus inverting the order of
battalions; each battalion then countermarched by ranks, which
recovered the inversion, and gave a contiguous line of columns, left
in front.

The Brigade then took ground to the right flank, by the diagonal
march, •m 1 then advanced in echellon of battalion, from the right

and file-firing commenced from the right of sub-divisions as soon
as the centre of sub-divisions were formed.

The Brigade charged front to the left flank, by throwing back
the whole left ; Light Infantry covering the retiring flank. The right
battalion (2d Regiment) charged front by the flank march of threes
into open column, and wheeled into line ; the other Battalions
broke Into open column right in front. The centre Battalion (the
Royal Marines) moved to the alignment in open column, entering
where its centre rested. The left Battalion ( Royal Fu sitters) moved
al in column, closed to quarter distance on the march, and formed
square when ordered; it then moved into the alignment, counter-1
marched by divisions, and deployed into line on its rear division.
The Queen's and Royal Marines,when their fronts were clear, com-
menced firing by divisions from the right ; advanced in echellon of

sub divisions of each Battalion, and prepared for Cavalry ; formed

The Brigade retired in echellonoilsattalion, columns, at quarter,
ilictance, by breaking successively into columns right in front,
moved to the rear, and closed to quarter distance columns on the
march. The Light Infantry covered the retiring flank, and ex-1
tended to cover each succeeding column as it retired. Light In-
fantry recalled, and squares formed to resist cavalry. The Brigade
then took up a distant alignment to the former rear in inverted
order, by the deployment on the front divisioa of each Battalion.
The Brigade changed front by the countermarch of each Bat-
talion on its own centre, and thus recovered its inversion, it then'
fired from the centre as soon as formed.
The Brigade formed a double column of Companies at subdi-
vision distance, on the two centre Companies of the centre Batta-
lion; the column advanced ; formed square of Brigade; the square
advanced by front face, re-funned column, closed to the front, and
deployed into line on the two centre Companies of Royal Marines.

port. Opened ranks, advanced, and general salute; it then threw
forward the whole left, and the echellon broke into open columns,
left in front, and marched home through the centre of Companies,
the centre section having been wheeled outwards.

appeared :
" The Adjutant-General has received the commands of his Royal
highness the Duke of Cur RIINC; to express to the Queen's Royals,
the Royal Fusileers, and Royal Marines, his Royal Highness's
high approbation of the soldierlike and steady manner in which
they exercised in brigade this morning."
Notwithstanding the showery state of the weather, a large con-
course of good company attended ; and many Officers of high rank,
from a considerable distance, are said to have expressed themselves
in high terms of commendation on the manner the evolutions
were executed.
