BRITISH : UNIFORMS Significance of Those Displayed on Dress Parade. STYLES WON BY BRAVE ACTS. Distinctions That Date Baok Many Years and Mark Deads of Daring on the Battlefield Brilliant Color and Picturesque Costumes. The kbukl service dress of the Brit ish army submerges into one drab hue all the great color that formerly char acterized the various regiments, and during the army maneuvers the great boats of men at arms look all alike. Nevertheless .the separate organiza tions still maintain their individual uniforms for dress parade, and. as In the United States, almost every uni form is conspicuous by some' pecullai dlstinction-a distinction that dates back many years along the path of England's glory. . , For Instance, sergeants of the Somer- ?ewn,re "gOTi . my known officers in the service who wear te gagn over m Ieft 8h0ulder. Offl- cera formerly wore their sashes in this fashion, and In one engagement all the lieutenants and captains of the Somer setshire Light Infantry were killed or wounded, and the sergeants performed their duties. Thus their triumph Is re membered. ' The men of the Gloucestershire regi ment wear their badges at the back of their headdress as well as at the front, a distinction granted because when the first battalion was defending an im portant outpost In Egypt in 1801 they were suddenly attacked lu the rear, but by turning quickly about success fully beut off their assailants. That picturesque bearskin grenadier cap. worn alone by the Scots Greys of all the cavalry, dates from the battle of Rnmilllcfi, In 170C, when the regi ment captured three battalions of the Plcardy French grenadiers. The Royal Welsh fusiliers is now the only regiment that retains the "flash," five black ribbons bunging from the bnck of the collar of the tunic, original ly worn to protect the coat from the grease used In plaiting a cue of pig tails. The "flash" was abolished throughout the army while the regi ment was abroad, but on its return the commanding officer appealed to King William IV. to be allowed to retain It ' White Jackets are worn by the ranks of the foot guards when not In dress uniform. The grenadiers wear a white goat's hair plume on the left side of the bearskins, a red band round the forage caps, and the buttons of the tunic are set at equal Intervals; the Coldstream guards wear a red feather pi nine at t!:e rljrht side of the bear skin, a white band on the forage cap. and the buttons are set In twos; Scots , guards have no plume In the bearskin. I a diced band for the cap and the bujt ' tons In threes, while the Irish guards have a plume of St. Patrick's blue In the bearskin, a green bund for the cap and the buttons In fours. The First Life guards can always be distinguish ed from the Second by the sheepskins black sheepskins for the First and white for the Second. ' There are plenty of other distinctions arranged to tell the regiments. The only lancer regiment that Is clothed In scarlet Is the Sixteenth, the only dra goons in blue the carabineers. The household cavalry Is the only troop to wear the cuirass. The Highland Light Infantry alone among highland regi ments is not kilted, but wears pluld trousers, shako and not the feather bonnet. The shako is also worn by the Cameronians. the only rifle regiment to do so. A soldier wearing a bugle on his shoulder strap belongs to a light infan try regiment, another wearing a gre nade to a fusilier regiment and a red baud round a cap with blue facing marks a soldier of a royal regiment. The only highland regiment with a red hackle in the feather bonnet Is the "Black Watch;" in all others It Is white. Loudon Cor. New York Trib une, i Preserving UlnoUum.
