During the past week Major - General Lysons , C.B. , has been busily engaged in receiving regi ment after regiment as they arrived upon the ground . The cavalry which have yet arrived are the 7th Dragoons , under Colonel Peyton , who marched from Manchester , the 9th Lancers , Major Hardy , who also marched from York , and three squadrons of the 12th Lancers from Leeds . The 2d Life Guards , from Windsor , are not ex pected until Monday . The cavalry horses appear none the worse for their trip ; indeed it would be difficult to find anywhere a better set of troop They came on with a bold front , horses and troopers than those which Colonel Pey Saturday last in H.M.S.

While this little skirmishing was going on the enemy was massing his troops on the right and gradually working round our flank . In order to cover this movement a squadron of Guards was sent to attack our position on Little shaw Hill , 9TH LANCERS . The head - quarters and service troops under command of Lieut . - Col .

The dinner pelled Captain Cleland to withdraw his men ; the other night is said to have been " enough to gladden the the enemy at this time having got a heart even of the soldiers of the old days , when a regiment battery into position , which had he waited the had was looked upon almost as a home .

These were hastily withdrawn , as if the enemy had threatened our left flank they must inevitably have been cut off .

They threatened an advance from this direc tion , but Colonel Fiennes knew very that , however daring his opponents , it impossible for them to cross the bog which lay between him and the hill . Gradually our right was extended , but yet little was seen of the enemy . Every now and then a squadron pounced down upon them , but it was difficult to say where they were unless massing among the trees of Beau THE following story is too good not to be true . Two soldiers recently had a fight . An inquiry was held into the matter , and an attempt was made to ascertain who struck the first blow . One of the combatants admitted that he had hit the other man first , but he declared that he did so under great provocation . On being asked what the provo cation was , he alleged that he had been called by an opprobrious name . Pressed to state what that name was , he replied " Cardwell . " So much for the popu larity of the Secretary of State for War among the rank and file of the army , who do not seem to regard him with a greater amount of affection than is felt for him by officers . Globe 21 MAY 1873 DEPARTURE OF THE 9TH LANCERS FROM YORK. This fine regiment , which has now been in York for the last two years , is under orders to march for Col chester , and for that place the first squadron left York Barracks at eight o'clock yesterday ( Friday ) morning . Its route will be Selby . Another squadron will leave to - day ( Saturday ) , taking a different route , and on succeeding days in the coming week there will be further squadron departures until the whole regiment is on the mareh . This sudden change will be heard with regret amongst all classes of the citizens , amongst whom the 9th have become won derfully popular , both for the true military spirit which has pervaded all ranks , for the courteous bear ing of the officers , and likewise for the spirit which the latter have displayed both in their love for , and the practice of , sport , and the magnificence of hospitality which they have extended towards those in their own station of life .
