Al 4 military exhibition the eyoIutions OF Troop
@ at Madison square Garden on Friday nigh, last
were poor, ana practically resolved themselves Into
. drill OF Instruction, In many instances iaushable.
The drill was very ragged, and men lost their places
In the most simple movements. In the exhibition
of trough ridins'' q little hurdlc about two fees
high was brought into the arena. The horses. how.
over, In many Instances had 10 be led over &c aad
| coaxed with the whip. Several troopers succeeded
In dismounting and mounting at the moment or
clearing the OBSTACLE, but the majority when they
came TO the scratch found keeping their seat the
best. Many horse. would not even be cosIed over
the little obstacle. In the opinion OF many the
Brooklyn troopers could better have omitted tho ex.
hibition. especially with such skilled cavairymcn
as Troop y, Third United states Caval.y, In the reld
with them.
