TILE ARSIY.

SIT FREDERICK ADAM passed through Paris on the
18th instant, on his return to resume the military
command at Corfu. General MAITLAND and suite
were to leave Corfu about this time for England, by
the way of Leghorn and Marseilles.
Saturday, the gallant 71st Regiment, now in gar-
rison in Chester, were reviewed on the Roodee, by
General BY NG.
The • South Hams Yeomanry will shortly have a
muster-day in their uniform ; the whole equipment,
both for man and horse, is really very handsome, and
does great credit to the taste of Colonel BASTARD.—
Each member serves three years without pay, which
goes towards the expense of clothing, &c.
It is expected that the Regiments of Lancashire
Militia will be called out this Summer, to assemble
as follows :

Ist Regiment under Colonel Pianos, at Lancaster.
2d Lord STANLICY, at Liverpool.
5d Sir T. D. Haswn, at Preston.
The time of training will be 28 days.
Wednesday, the battalion of Coldstream Guards,
commanded by Colonel WOODFORD, and stationed in
Portsmouth Garrison, was reviewed and inspected on
Southsea Common, by Major General Sir GEORGE
COOKE, K.C.B. Lieutenant-Governor of Portsmouth,
who was pleased to express, in very flattering terms,
his admiration of the precision with which the va-
rious manoeuvres were executed.

Monday, the 12th Regiment of Infantry were in-
spected at Ennis' by Major-General &intros. This
corps, with the 39th, from Casdebar, are under orders
for Dublin.
The Bth Veteran Battalion, lately quartered at
Loughrea, are now stationed at Aberdeen.
Two companies of the 9th Veteran Battalion, un-
der the command of Captain ROGER FINCH, are now
stationed at Roscrea.

Friday se'nnight, after inspecting the 49th, at
Buttevant, Major-General Sir THOMAS BRISBANE,
K.C.B. commanding the Limerick District, arrived
at Limerick, and at half-past seven o'clock, the Bri-
gade of . Artillery, under Lieutenant-Colonel DES-
BRISAY,. and at eight, the 18th Hussars, under Lieu-
tenant-Colonel HAY, and the 23d Welch Fusileers,
under Lieutenant-Colonel PEARSON, were severally
inspected, with whose appearance, movements, ma,.
nceuvres, and interior economy, he was highly pleased:
indeed, the general conduct of the entire Garrison
deserves every encomium. Sir THOMAS BRISBANE
is accompanied by his Quarter-Master-General, Sir
CHARLES BROKE, on his inspection.
Monday se'tmight' a splendid Ball was given in
Cashel. Rank, Beauty, and Fashion, graced the
scene ; and never was beheld a more striking union
of the elegance and fascination of, the fair sex, and
the manly graces and dignity of the other. The room
was crowded by Fashionables from all parts of the
country, and conducted by the able management of
Captain STUART, 3d Dragoon Guards, and Mr. LONG,
of Loagfield, who kindly officiated as Stewards.—
The excellent band of the Sd Dragoon Guards, per-
formed the music of the dances, and during the in-
tervals of the sets gave their full swell of harmony
to enliven the party, and give additional zest to the
sparks of wit and brilliant, conversation which en-
livened all present. The attention of Capt. STUART
and his brother Officers called forth the kind wishes
and esteem of all—and at a late hour the party broke
up, happy in their past hours, and only lamenting
that broad day-light put an end to them so soon.—
The splendid new uniform of the 3d Dragoon Guards
was worn, for the first time, on this occasion, and for
is brilliancy and richness was universally admired.l
This excellent Regiment is about to leave Ireland the
latter end of this month.

Tuesday night last, as a party of the 6th Dragoons
was escorting a deserter from the 40th Regiment of
Foot, from Manchester to Newcastle, they stopped
for the night at Mr. HIND'S, of Weatherby, and, after
retiring to their sleeping-room, the soldier to whose
arm the prisoner had been fastened unlocked himself)
and was immediately knocked down by the deserter.
Another of the party, perceiving the deserter snatch
at a carbine belonging to the corporal, who was
asleep in bed, levelled his own piece, and shot the de-
serter through the body, who fell dead. The soldier
has since been committed to York Castle for trial:

Tuesday, a private of the Rifle Brigade, now in
Glasgow (a native of Ireland) cut off the two first
joints of the forefinger of his left hand and part of the
thumb. This is, we believe, a transportable offence.

and renewed the Combat. lie was carried to Mr. Cooke's dress-

turday evening.
