Albany, Sept. 22.--On Friday last, the 13th, (Col. Schuyler's) regiment of the Army of the United States, passed through this city from Greenbush, for Niagara. The regiment was nearly full, and was well clothed, equipped and armed. The officers and soldiers, with scarcely an exception, made a very martial appearance, which was much heightened by a fine regimental band, and an elegant stand of colors. It must be particularly gratifying to every true patriot, to see such troops marching to the frontiers. We venture to predict, that if an opportunity is afforded them, they will do honor to their country and the standard under which they march.
