Ithe 6th Inniskillen Dragoons have marched on

The West Essex Regiment, under the command
of. Sir WILLIAM SMYTH, arrived at Chelm.kard on

absent from its own country (a short interval except-
ed) for twelve years and upwards.
The 42d Royal Highlanders, commanded by Co-
lonel DICK, marched into Chelmsford .Barracks on

son, viz. the 113 d, 73d, and 92d Regiment, depots of

RAMSGATE, JAN. 6.—Sailed for Ostend the Goad
Statesman Transport, with regimental baggage' and
stores; also, for the Downs, the Triton Transport.
to be employed in the conveyance of troops to Ireland.
The Transport Agent has already hired, by direction
of the Board, several Ramsgate vessels, on freight,
to bring troops home from France: aremarkAbly tine
schooner, and the Lively and Resolution Packets,
belonging to this port, sailed in the afternoon for that
purpose to Calais, from which it would seem that
Government have borne in mind the dispatch and
good order with which the Ramsgate freight vessels
conveyed the horses and troops to Ostend last Spting,
when scarcely a horse out of the thousands shipped
from hence, under the superintendence of the Agent
here, was either lost or rendered unfi, for service :
indeed melting can more strongly evidence the high
state in which both men and horses were landed, than
' the glorious harvest they soon after reaped in the
ever memorable field of battle at Waterloo.

The Princess Ctinnt.orrt: of WALES, on leaving
Weymouth on the Ist icsuot, ordered the Band 01
the 49th Regiment to receive One Hundred Guineas !
We need hardly add, that they ate lout in sounding the
praises of her Royal liighnets. Tiiis, however, is not
the only favour for which that Regiment has reason
to be grateful to the Princess. On The last anniver.
sary of hiss Majesty's Accession to ...t.e Throve, it was.
announced in the R. O. that her P,oyal Highness had
been pleased to order se2o to lie kpropriated to the
benefit of the Rep,imental BchGol.
An awkward affair incurred a few days back on
the Boulevards at Paris,' where Mit-shill Vierna was
1 walking, when Lieutenant l'itoaoros, of the English
Cu?rds, paving him quickly, unintentionally struck
the Marshal on the elbow. Lieitirn.:nt 'I% immesh.
ately apologised, but the Mirslial abw.ed him grossly,
and increased his abuse in proportion to Lieutenant
T.'s excuses, when the lvter said, " I know not who
you are, but 1 am a British Officer, and will not
brook such gross and indecent langnage, without re-
senting it. I therefore advise you to desist." The
arshal went on as before; .and 'ttio• Lieutenant
knocked him down by a blow . orf 1114 chest.- The
Lieutenant was taken to the Prefecture. The Mar-
shal wrote to the Dtie of WELLINoToN, a Crust of
Enctoiry was held, and the Lieutenant was slightly
reprimanded, and told to be more circumspect in his
I conduct.
