Yefterday morning, at eight o'clock, agreeably to
orders, the Firft Regiment of Loyal London Volun-
teers muttered in Finfbury-fquare, and proceeded in
their route to the neighbourhood of Hornfey, where
they feparated into different parties, and commenced
a fham fight, which was executed on both fidcs with
great vigour and fpirit. The unfavourable (late of
the weather operated greatly againtt the fatisfaelion
of the day. A vaft concourfe of people attended in
the early part of it, but were under the neeeflity of
retiring from the rain. A cold collation was pre-
pared at Highbury Barn, for the Volunteers, where
they retires to enjoy themfelves after the fatigues of
the day.

Yefterday morning the Prince of Wales's Loyal
Volunteers affembled at the early hour of fix, in the
King's Mews, Charing-crofs. They marched from
thence to Hyde Park, to go through the manoeuvres
of a field day and tham fight, all which they perform-
ed with confiderable correanefs. The Light Infantry,
after the ufual movements of the falute, and the pla-
toon exercife had been gone through, formed in an
open column in front of the line. They difcharged
three or four rounds each and then retreated. The
main body then made a retrograde movement. The
Light Company again run in the front of the corps,
firing at intervals as they advanced. This they did on
the fuppnfition that the enemy's out•pofts had been
beat in. The Corps immediately marched forward by
columns, firing each a volley as they came up. They
then difcharged three general volleys, and concluded
with the grand falute, and marched back to the
Mews at half part twelve. The day was very fine
until thsy were returning, and then it rained altnoft
all the way.

At one o'clock (military time) the Duke of Gitlin-
cefter's, or new St. George's Corps, mufiered near
boo thong in Carter's Riding honfe, South Audley-
ftrect, purfuant to order. Notwithflanding the day
was then fet in for rain, they proceeded to Hyde Park
as loon as they had fallen into the ranks. They ranged
themfelves on that fpacious plain near Kenfington
Gardens and Bayfwater. At three o'clock precifely
Earl HARRINGTON, accompanied by Lord PITIRSNaII
(his Lordfhip's fon) and his two Aids-de-Camp, rode
up. The ufual ceremonies of comic took place; but
the extent of marching and the diverfity of wheeling
and forming in different pofitions wasfornethinggreat-
er than ufual, and was performed with the &Weft
propriety. When they came to fire, however, the rain
had fo damped the infide of their pieces that a num-
ber of them hung fire. When all the prefcribed ma-
nceuvres were gone through, Earl HARRINGTON ad-
dreired Lord CHerws a o on the fubjed of the day's
review. He Paid that he made allowance for a corps
who had not had arms in their hands above three
weeks, and alto for the difadvantage which they Is-
hewed under by their review.day turning out fo un-
favourable. Under thefe cireunsfiances, he laid that
the difcipline of the corps had exceeded any idea
which he could polfibly have formed of them. His
Lordfhip, with his fon and his Aidsde.Camp, then
withdrew from the ground, and in a fhort time af-
terwards the troop of Wellniinger Light Horfe,whieh
had kept the ground, marched off. Notwithitanding
it rained incerantly the whole time of the review, nei-
ther Earl LIM INOTON nor Col. STU•RT would pat
on a great coat; his Lcrdfhip alto remained unco-
vered the time of the Gime, though it was then rain-
ing very fmartly. Soon after the noble General bad
quitted the ground, Lord CH ITWYND was clofe to
the ranks giving fome neceffary inftruftions ; unfor,
mutely his Lordfhip's boric took a hidden Remand
threw him out of the (addle. Capt. Fawc ITT, of the
Weltrninfter Light Horfe, immediately fern to in.
quire if his Lordfhip had received any ferious hurt
by the fall ? his Lot dfhip however rode down to fa-
tisfy the Captain that be had received no injury, and
to thank him for his polite inquiry. The Corps
marched to their orderly room in Mount-fireet,Grof-
eenortquare, and depofited their arms at a little after
fix.o'clock. They are to be brigaded on Monday
along with the St. Margaret's and St. John's, and the
old St. George's ; but tome degree of diffatisfadinu is

Which Inaba ate think the joys at Lund.

And hung o'er memy a chair;

To think of auld lang fyne.
