Saturday, two troops of the 3d, or Icing's own
Dragoon Guards, marched into Portsmouth Dock-
yard, to embark for the Peninsula.—This regiment
has not been out of England for the last 60 years; and
the men and horses are said to be the finest ever em-
barked from Portsmouth. Four troops are to em-
bark immediately.

This day detachments of the King's German Le-
gion, to the amount of 686, arrived at Portsmouth,
tor Portugal.

The first division of the sth Dragoon Guards ar-
rived on Saturday at Portsmouth, from Sussex, and,
after being inspected by General WilrfHAM, were
embarked.for Portugal.

The four Hussar Regiments expect immediately
to be employed. They are complete in men and
horses, and, in point of discipline, not to be excelled
by any in his Majesty's service.
The 23d Light Dragoons, under the command of
the Earl of PORTA R LINGTON, are in daily expectation
of receiving orders to embark for Portugal. This
fine regiment sustained great loss at the battle of Ta-
lavera, and came home shortly after it to recruit.

The North Hants regiment of Militia, lying at
Bristol, have all turnecrout, and are sworn in to serve
in Ireland. This regiment, on every occasion, has
been the first to offer their services—to Spain they
volunteered to a man, and this is the second time of
their offering themselves for Ireland.
Wednesday last, the 2d battalion !of the Sd or
Buffs, marched from Clarence Barracks through
Dock, Stonchouse, and Plymouth, to embark at Cat-
water. They repeatedly cheered as they marched
through the streets of each town, and were as loudly
answered with repeated cheers by crowds of people
assembled on the occasion. They appear fine hardy
fellows, and very fit for service. Six troops of the 4th
Dragoon Guards also marched through to the jetty-
heads of the Dock-yard, and embarked in high or-
der and spirits on board cavalry transports prepared
for the purpose of their reception.
The Penelope merchant ship is arrived from Cadiz,
which place she left on the 11th instant. Several
transports, containing part of General BLAKE'S army,
had arrived there, and the remainder was hourly ex-
pected. Their stay at Cadiz it was, however, thought
would be very short.
The Aberdeenshire regiment of Militia, command.
ed by the Right Hon. the Earl of AIOYNE, lying in
Berwick, have handsomely volunteered their services
to Ireland.

A fleet of transports, having on board five troops
of the 4th or Royal Irish Dragoon Guards, and two
troops of the 9th Light Dragoons, sailed from Ply-
mouth, on Friday, tor Portugal, under convoy of
the PEACOCK sloop of war, and ACHATES gun-brig.
The five troops of the 4th Dragoon Guards embark-
ed, are commanded by Captains LEATISAM, DOMAN,
HAMILTON, BUTLER, and WEB&

The transports for Portugal, which have about 4000
troops, in detachments, on board, sailed on Saturday
morning from Portsmouth, under convoy of the MER-
CURY, Capt. TANCOCK, and JASPER, Capt. HUNLOKE.
The latter takes several transports to Cadiz and Gib-
raltar. and then returns to Lisbon. The Duke of
LEINSTER, Earls CLARE and DELAWARE., and Lord
WILLIAM FITZGERALD, for Lisbon, are passengers in
the Mercury.
The interchange of the English and Irish Militias
is to take place immediately. About 5000 of the for,
mer are under orders to embark for Ireland, and the
transports conveying them are to receive in return a
similar number of the Irish Militia. The regiments
destined for this service from the Kent District are
the Cornwall and Devon Miners, West Middlesex,
Cardigan, and Montgomery.
A Subaltern Officer of one of the Bengal native re-
giments, has lately arrived in this country, in order
so solicit redress of the Court of Directors, under very
extraordinary circumstances. The appellant, it ap-
pears, having distinguished himself in the field on
many occasions, had on that account been promoted
from the ranks. The circumstance occasioned a jea-
lousy among some of his countrymen, who accused
him of the crime of sorcery. However ridiculous the
charge, he was tried and found guilty, by a Court.
Martial, and dinsissed the service.
