The aetivity obferved in our ports is afonifhing;

The Second Battalion of the 85th Regiment
lately arrived from Jamaica, under the command
of Mainr 111,KstrziE ; previous to departing from
that ifland, it began to experience the dreadful
effeels of a Well India climate. Lieutenants
FITZ/AMES, SHEPPARD, and CHADWICK, died the
latter end of July. The regiment embarked on
the t 3th of Augull, and arrived at Portfmouth on
the sch of September.

Saturday forenoon the gallant 28th regiment of
foot, which fo diftinguithed itfelf in Egypt in the
vidury. of the memorable 2111 of March, 18ot,
before Alexandria, and on many other occafions
during the late war,was reviewed by Major General
ENGLAND on the lawn before Government Houfe
Dock Lines, Plymouth : the day being fine, there
was a large concourfe of fpedators to greet thefe
gallant fellows on their &ft review fince their re
turn to their native country from foreign fervice.
The review was in every refped good, particularly
as to marching by in orlinary and quick time :
the regiment then went through their manoeuvres,
firings, and evolutions, in the moil corred manner,
at firft forming the hollow fquare, firing, and
reducing it into line, t 9 the gratification of the
General Officers prefent, and fpedators. By word
of command the regiment performed their cele-
' braced manoeuvre of facing the rear to a front, and
by that means prefenting two fronts, being fuppof-
ed to be attacked in front and rear by the enemy,
when a molt heavy fire commenced, as if in real
anion. This manoeuvre was one, amongft others,
which the gallant 28th executedon the ever-memo-
rable atft of March, iBoi, in the ruined work near
Alexandria, when it was attacked by BONAPARTE'S
Invincible foot in front, and a Legion of Invincible
Dragoons in the rear, the greater part of which,
in a !port time, bit the dull, and left the 28th,
42d, and a foreign corps, undifputed matters of
, the field.

General ENGLAND returned the regiment his
thanks at the clofe of the review. The orderly
conduct of both the gallant 26th, or Cameronians,
and 28th regiment, while in barricks, deferves
the higheft encomiums for fteady difcipline and
good behaviour.
