Albion NY Orleans Republican, ca. July, 1861
THE ALBION SOLDIERS. The whereabouts of the Albion soldiers is a matter of frequent inquiry, and will perhaps be more so this week. To meet inquiry, we will state that the 27th regiment is with McClellan, before Richmond, and was brought into the battle on Friday last as part of the Reinforcements. The 28th regiment was at Front Royal at last advices, and is probably there still. The 8th Cavalry at last accounts had been ordered to Baltimore, where it was said their horses would be furnished them.

Capt. Gallet, late of the 6th Cavalry, reached home on Thursday last, having resigned his commission, as stated by us a week or two since. The regiment is now at the Relay House, near Baltimore. They have received their arms, which are as good as those of any body of men in the service, and a portion of their horses, They will be fully mounted in a few days.
