The quarters are built OF white limestone and are
two stories high, with balconies on the front and

also Six very neat stables, one story and bait

a cnEmodious and neat hospital is in progress OF
erection about hundred yards from the quarters
ON the lst side, and am confident that when 1t IL
finished it will be well regulated and Supplied
with medicines as any hospital in the service.
The 'regin entail library OF the second dragons
is very comfortably furnished and contains five hun
bred select vou mes, bound In calf, in imitation OF

books owned by the various companies, amounts to
seven hundred volumes. II affords ample means of
