their march to Bristol, on route to Ireland.
We learn that the appearance, equipments. and discipline, of
the Wiltshire Regiment of Yeomanry Cavalry received the most
unqualified approbation of Lieut.-Colonel Brereton. For the
former, the Regiment is exclusively indebted to the liberal and
indefatigable attention of Colonel the Marquis of Bath; while
the gentlemanly manners, unwearied seal, and military know-
ledge of Lieut.-Colunel Baker, aided by the active exertions of
Lieut. Penis= (the Assistant Adjutant) contributed to the latter.
These, combined with the attention of Officers of all grades, and
the determined steadiness and attention of the men themselves,
enabled the regiment to pass the ordeal of military inspection
without at all diminishing from the former credit of the corps. •
During the stay of the Wilts Yeomanry Cavalry at Devises, the
members of the Minden Troop presented their Commanding
Officer, Captain Wyndham, with a very handsome Sword, as a
mark of the high respect they entertained for him, and more par-
ticularly for his having met them at Devises, though labouring
under the effects of a broken leg, and supported on crutches.
Lieut. Colonel Hodgson, of the 42d Regiment of Bengal Native
Infantry, returned last week in perfect health to his native place,
Bebop Auckland. after an absence of 32 years, on which occasion

keg sojourn in the East Indies, Lieut. Colonel H discovered the
source of the Ganges in the Himalaya Mountains, for which, as
well as for various other important services, he was appointed Sur-
veyor General of India.
Monday, a Court Martial was held in the burets of Wn-
ford, en a soldier of the 11th regiment, who was about to be dis-
charged with a pension for long service*, bet owing to his wife
having disposed of certain articles of sates, contrary to the rep.
Woos, it was found necessary to institute an inquiry. Major
