We have received a teller from a fiiend in Europe, from which (though not intended for publicction) we canuot forbear making an extra?!. The writer had ihe good lorluue to be present at the late annua! review of the Russiati Impe'ial Guard, by fhc Emperor of St. Petersburg which is composed of 60, 000 men; and as such descriptions are seldom afforded the American reader, it will he read with interest. JVeie Haven Register. St. Petersburg, June, 1847. ' Every-'year this review take place at the Imperial City, preparatoiy lo Ihe departure of ihe troops for their summer quaiters. For about four hours I had a good view of the magnificent sight, aud my hurried peu will fail mc lo give you an adequate desctiplion of its exceeding splen dor. When I arrived upon the ground, the troops had already begun to march. The balconies and windows of the public build ings and elegant private residences sunound iug the field, were filled with ladies and gen tlemen, and the sides of the field itself cover ed with a dense mass of men, women and childien. On one side of the field a gorgeous lent was pitched upon a raised platform for the Empress, and before her majesty and the Empeior the troops were to pass in review. The panoramic view of the whole field, you can readily imagine, beautiful. But to ihe review itself of thi great body of 60,000 troops, who (iu part only) compose the garde Imperial of the Emperor Nicholas, and who aie distinct from the main army of Russia, which I believe numbers near one milliou, rank and file. The foot soldiers, iufantrr principally, fust parsed in review, marching by platoons of companies contain tog, perhaps, one hundred and fifty men each and in double order. As the sveeral platoons arrived opposite the Em peror; the peculiar Kassiau hurrah went up the whole length of the line, making the wel- 1 prize of $40,000 1 do 16,000 1 do 10,000 1 do 8,000 1 do 5,000 1 do 3,000 L Volume 8 Number 441 kin ring. Ihe soldier, were all picked men, tall, a-hletic, and evry one of them with a heavy black moustache. They moved with mathematical precision, and whether on a slow or quick march, seemed like pieces of mecbanUm, and iheir muskets not varying, it seemed, an inch either in the hcighth or inclination given to them. ' Of all tho marching I have seen, aud I have seen the American, French, Dutch and Prussia ii soldiers, none will at all compare with the Russian. The uniform of the infan try wa blue and red, not unlike our militia uniform in Couuecticut. It was about iwo hours before the infaulry had passed iu re view, and then came the cavalry, advancing in double order, by platoons of sixty horses abreast; and here was a sight that beggars description, nud which, whun I recall it, seems like a magnificent vision. First came a company of Caucasian IViuces.inoonted upon black, ronl black fiery sleed-4, with long manes and tails, almost sweeping the grouud. The Caucasians vto diessed in a garment fitting closely to the hkiu, and over this a fiuely wrought steel chain attnnr covering the en tire body IV 11 fiorii the head loosely over tho neck aud shoulders; upon their feet they wore a kind of sandal, aud upon their legs leather leggi us, similar to those of our I udiati war rior.; across their backs they carried a bow with well filled quiver; in their hands a car biue, and in their ghdles the savage looking iyogirg-ian. They are a fierce, though handsome look ing set of fellows. Next cur mo the Tai tars, upon fheir wild looking, fleet little horses the horses, all of tbuin, carrying thuir necks forward and iheir heads high up in the air, as il mining tho breeze, or so uniform was tho line of heads, as if they were drawn up by pulleys. The euslume.of tho Tartar soldier is a blue fif.-ck, tummed with silver, and a kind ol scull cap, bound with fur; in his hand he carries a spear, the end of which he rctts upon the head, between the ears of his horse. Then came the Chevalier .Lancers, splendid looking men, dressed in white cas.-imere, with heavy aud highly polished brass bieast plates, and bras helmets surmouuted by tho Imperial eagles, all mounted upon most elegnul horses. Regiment after regiment passed by, each regrmeut with different colored horses, aud the hoises in each regiment so well matched in size, form, color, and indeed every respect, that to distinguish them, each had braided iu Wis mane his number, upon a small plale ;v The Lancers are all picked men, and aro of the flower of the Russian army, the officers being of untile tilth; and were it not for tho difTeient colored pennants they carry upon their lunce, and the ctrlor of the - horses, no one regiment confd be distinguished from another, so ueaily (alike are they. After tho Lancers, came the Imperial Hussars, in their costume of red, with high fur caps, aud mount ed every one upon while steeds. -This regi ment, it is said is the favorite regiment of the Empress. Then came the Imperial Car bineers, mounted oti black horse-, and dicssed like iho Lancers, except that their hclinels and breast-plates were of steel, highly polished. Following these came the Cos sacks, their black steeds carrying their heads high iu the air. The dress of the Cossacks is similar to that of the Tartars, which I have above described except in their caps which are high and of fur: their weapon is a steel sharp-pointed lance The rear of this immense body ofcavnlry, amounting to over 30,0c0, was brought op by regiments of mounted artillery, six horsce, ihiee abreast, to each eon, and of sappors and mitiers; and then came the baggagq wa gons, and the pouton train. But the greatest sight was the marchiug of the horses attached to the different regirucui. They seemed like machines. Xou thiuk it "strange," no doubt, aud yet 'tis no less 'Strange than true," that every horse iu marching kept perfect timo with his feet with the muic. I never taw soldiers on foot do it better indeed, not so well, for when a quick, lively tune was play ed by the music, every horse commenced a trot aud kept up the same uniuforrnity of step as belore, when on a walk. And then to see those horses wheel by companies, and in double ordi-r, coming round with the preci sion of it compass describfng a ciicle, it ex ceeded anything I ever imagined. After the whole army, for the Imperial Guard is organized an on entire and distinct army, had pasted iu review before-the Emper or, the infantry left the field, nnd ihe cavalry remained iu full possession of it, aud went through with some evolutious. First the Caucasians came at a'full tun down the field, and the other regiments iu uccessioo. After this, the whole body stationed themselves at some dUtance opposite he Empeior, in cloe order, aud at a given signal half of this body, over 15,000 horsemen, started on a run, aud suddenly halted n few feet iu ad vance of the Emperor, preserving, as tbey halted, ibe same compactness aud the same perfect front which tbey had before starting. A few more evolutions which I have not time to write about now, finished the review of the day a day which has done much to impress on me the tematkof Napleon, that with an army of Russia u soldieis he would couquer the world. He spoke of the soldiers, not ot Ihe officers, of whom he bad not a high opiu- ion. . , c I finish this letter by daylight, yet it is after ten o'clock, p. m.
