CAPTAIN HUTSQN'S DETACHMENT, Captain Hutsoo, arrived this afternoon with 79 men and -two 03c waggons, The men had been supplied with helmets, and had a tedious march up; and received a hearty welcome, tbe ladies giving them tea. and many sweet smiles. I hardly recoz tosed the bearded men, but a shave w_l soon restore ttuan to us in their natural aspect. Veterinary Lieutenant Sanderson arrived, and we are deSghted to have him as our horses need skilled attention. Lieut* I Todd, of Auckland, in a beard and fierce helmet, was completely disguised, and only recalled himself to my knowledge by ask ing where he couldUget *-cool drink." We have jn the new arrivals a man who ever since he joined has made himself a name as the hardest of a_t workers, Trooper Cray, fur, of Canterbury. His horse had a small sore on its back, so Cravfur walked the entire distance, over 90 miles. Tids speaks well for New Zealand grit, and for the care of his horse. Captain IJavinrst, who rarely praises anyone, remarked that it was good work, this being the highest commen dation ever extracted from our senior of ficer. By the way, tha telegram which announced our march in th*r "Cape Times" printed this officer's name a* and it seemed to sadden ton, even whan it w»a carefully corrected *o "Hayborse," The

j new arrivals brought us no (helmets or I stores. We s__l» bs a pit_b_> lot. The entire strength was paraded to-day. No. 2 is clothefif in slouch _ats and No. 1 in hehnets. THE DERBYSHIRE YEOMANRY. March 17.
