The infantry regiments, for the most part, are dressed in linen frocks, dyed carky or gray slate colour — slate-blue trowsers, and shakoes protected by puggeries, or linen covers, from the sun. The peculiarity of carky is, that the dyer seems to be unable to match it in any two pieces, and that it exhibits endless varieties of shade, varying with every washing; so that the effect is rather various than pleasing on the march or on the parade-ground.
