The service companies of the regiment, under the command of Lieut.-Colonel Garrett, K.H., embarked on board the ship "Herefordshire," for England, on the 8th of April, 1848, and arrived at Portsmouth on the 8th of May. The service companies proceeded to Dover, where they were joined by the depôt companies from Guernsey, under Major John Maclean. In July, 1848, the regiment proceeded to Liverpool, and afterwards marched into camp at Everton. On the 29th of September the head-quarters were removed to Chester, and in December proceeded to Liverpool. [Sidenote: 1850] [Sidenote: 1851] On the 16th of April, 1850, the head-quarters and four companies proceeded from Liverpool to Hull, where the regiment, under the command of Lieut.-Colonel Robert Garrett, K.H., was stationed on the 1st of April, 1851, the date to which the present record has been continued. CONCLUSION. The scene of the principal active services of the FORTY-SIXTH regiment, from its formation in 1741, until the present period, has been limited to _North America_ and the _West India Islands_. After the unsuccessful attach on _Fort Ticonderago_ in July, 1758, the regiment shared in the capture of _Fort Niagara_ on the 25th of July, 1759, and of other forts in Canada, which led to the surrender of _Montreal_ on the 8th of September, 1760; and thus completed the conquest of that country,--_Quebec_ having been acquired, in September of the preceding year, by the troops detached under Major-General Wolfe. In February, 1762, the regiment shared in the capture of _Martinique_, which was followed by the reduction of _Grenada_, _St. Lucia_, and _St. Vincent_; and in August following was present at the conquest of the _Havannah_, which last acquisition was restored to Spain at the Peace of 1763. The regiment embarked in 1776, for _North America_, and shared in several actions of the war with the United States until November, 1778, when it proceeded to the _West Indies_, and participated in the capture of _St. Lucia_ in December following. During the years 1795 and 1796, the regiment was employed in the campaign against the Caribs in _St. Vincent_, a severe and harassing service. While other regiments had the opportunity of encountering the French legions in other parts of the world, the FORTY-SIXTH was employed in protecting the colonial possessions of Great Britain; how efficiently this duty was performed is testified by the word "DOMINICA," conferred by Royal authority, for the gallant defence made by the regiment against a very superior French force on the 22nd of February, 1805. The language of Lieut.-General Sir John Hope, when reporting the battle of _Corunna_, is alike applicable to the conduct of the troops at _Dominica_, for there, as at the former place,--
