terms stronger, it p ssible, than those which he had
finessed in ,he tieti, his approbation of the Corps.

ufLora Lynedocli, without expecting to receive more
this the ,ediliary pleasure at seeing a regiment of
i7famy. The first thing that struck me, to ridi,lg
nieng the line, was the uncommonly-fine appearance
t,; the men. I WAS not only agiee ibiy surprised, but
to see the movements pet formed so accu•
sit with such rapidity ; and," turning to Co-
'toe' &mei, " the state of the Regiment reflects the
I..h.st honour on the Commanding Officer, and the
it;-.2111 p••rsucti must have been peculiarly good, to,
Lire en allied a corps, employed for such a number
flytars on detached service, in the West Indies and
es. the Continent, to acquire, during the short time
they had been at home, a discipline so perfect."
Lord 1,1"!:DOCII felt the highest gratification 'at the
approbation which the Commander-in-Chief bestowed
upon arc Regiment, and requested Lieutenant-Colo'
gel horr:11 to return to the Officers and men his best
CA11.34 for the attention to good discipline which the
appearance of the Corps evinced.
Ilis Rom HIGIINUS looked remarkably well,
nd was in etcellent spirits, and his gracious and con-
ceseending depct.ment diffused satisfaction to all
::round. But the pleasure of the day was not con-
dned to the Officers—Lord LlD:spoors ordered re-.
Irc,iiments to be supplied to the whole of the Regi-
mis,t, alth.b, honoured by the approbation they had
received from the Commander-in-Chief and their
Nobie Coloiri., presented a delightful spectacle to
tow who are " fond of looking at happy faces."
The 90th Lit Infantry is the regiment which
Lord Lis=oocst (then Colonel GitAllAti) raised at
