after pealing between them, torned round then, the star-
board column turning to port, and the port column to
port, beaded again by the royal yacht. The tide was now
with the Beet, sad they ran rapidly back to their stations,
anchored, and spin stunned yards and saluted. As soon
as her Nejeates yacht had passed through the squadron
and neared the store, the monad of a sharp cannonade an-
nounead that the gunboats were giving a taste of theil
quality. The attacks which they made mast have been
eminently sacceesial, for in a vary few minutes all
was over ; and about 5 o'clock was concluded this grand
demonstration of the naval force of England, at the end of
three years of war.
It is hardly eteesesary to describe the tumultuous crowd-
ing towards, and on shore, of the countless multitudes
assembled on this most brilliant of days, brilliant in every
respect, with heaven's sunshine, and the material splendour
and power of Great Britain. All that may be easily
imagined, and it may only be mentioned, that so fat as the
arrangements of the government afloat were concerned,
everything went off well in returning to port.

THE VIEW FROM SOUTHSEA CASTLE.
(nom ♦ 'PRIMAL 001111.ZIPOND11II)
The pleasant town of Soothes*, which has laid out its
trim terrine and cleanly quiet streets at a little distance
from the rampart that encircles Portsmouth town, looks
sport a spacing level cemmo•, which may he deseribed as
a Wed of marine Blackheath. On aide of the ammom is
the beech, cascading about a mile teem the seaweed fortifi-
cation of Portsmouth, to what is called Sogdian Castle.
A good carriage road pease sloeg the shore, between the
turf and the shingle, so es to give ready mesas to the beach
i• every way. ROM the greatest camber of spectators
assembled yesterday, sad enjoyed the best view that twilit
he obtained on land.
This part of the coast, Tannic, south-nit a mile and a
half from the Victoria pier at Portsmouth to South's&
Otitis, forme ems shore of the bay which stretches outside
the =new *strain of Portsmouth harbour. The other
shore of the bay to straight from the Blookhease at the
harbeses month, past Basin Hospital, and Fort Monktos,
to a low sandy point which endures the name of Gillkiekee.
The distance across the bay from South's& Castle to Fort
Roakton is two or three miles. The Spit mad onapies the
ground of this bay, *Retries the channel, einorly half •
mile wide, and •ot more than half a mile from the Seen&
sea shore, the only channel for vowels of soy else to abbe
Portsmouth harbour. The Spit buoy and the
Boyne buoy, very near each other, mark the
plain where this deep water channel begins. They are
altuatnt exactly in front of South's Castle, and outside
than buoys are the roads of Spithead, or the mid-channel of
the straits which separate the Isle of Wight from the main-
land. This was the nehorage of the fleet, so that the two
great ships which headed the double line, the Duke of Wel-
haste& cad the Royal George, lay immediately opposite to
South's& Castle, in a line with the Spit buoy. They VON

from rear to van of the whole fleet, beginning with the
gunboats, neat passing the brigs, corvettes, and smaller
steamers, then the frigates, and so to the greater ships of
the line; her Majesty and suite steadily advanced, until they
reached the &gripe, the huge three-deckers Duke of
Wellington and Royal George, and emerged from the lines
at hall-past one o'clock. Every ship as the Queen passed
by manned all the yard. with admirable celerity, and se-
knowledged the royal presence with a jsyons burst of Eng-
Behead sailor-like cheering. It was very interesting to witness
such an expression of heartfelt sympathy and vigorous
human life riddenly manifested by those huge machine..

rest when her Majesty went put It, after issuing from
between the lines.
At a respectful distance behind, a couple of miles or so,
the royal squadron was followed in its regress the sugh the
fleet by all the flotilla of gunboats, which bad left their an-
range behind t►e station' as soon as the Queen's yacht
entered between the stir of the line. The gunboats now

The gunboats being more than a huodred in number, it was
aeseeserily smatter of time to bring the let of them to the
and of sive-mile course. It,was nearly three o'clock before
•e entire flotilla got out of the lines, and dividing into
Iwo squadron', to the right bend and to the left band (or, r
It le technically said, to the starboard and to port),
turned round the flagships, each on its own ride, and went
to their appointed positions nearer the shore. By this tuns
other arrangements for the combined operation to be thne
represented were in progress. Two or three of those grim
iron-walled marten, the Boating batteries, had been
detached from the rear of the fleet, and together
with the exercising brigs, a mortar vessel or two, and the
Meander and Beller*, sailing reunite, formed a stationary
line arose the hay, just outside the site of the sandbank.
sad near enough to be well examined by the prigs on
shore. One squadron of gunboats took up its place
beyond them, so se to commend Fort Merton
and that part of the coast. A squadron of sixteen or
twenty genboets—(perhaps more, for it was difficult to get
an uninterrupted view of the whole lime of them at once),
came straight In towards Souther Castle, just eastward of
the Boyne buoy, end anchored shoat a mile off, with all its
broadsides bearing on the fortress. The guntosts, in their
torn, new became the orjsch of curiosity, and many re-
marks were made upon their applienbility to the reel at-
tack of B►ltic f rtresses ; the great Fria anidahip•, with
which evilly boat is furnished, securing them the respect
and the confidence of all the spectators.

No preparations were made in &iodises Cootie to retort
their amicable fire. The silty heavy guns which are
mounted on the parapet of thst formidable eitablishments
would doubtless be able to dispute effectively, if need
ever were, the entrance to Portsmouth harbour. But, os
this occasion, they were to receive the feigned
attack without even pretending to resent it.
Two 001111 f &Olaf of the Armagh Militia were the garrison,
and their serails, for the day were restricted to preventing
any trespass on the part of the crowd if civilizes, who bad
taken possession of the map place in front of the fortress,
and who only risked a tumble of 20 feet into its moat whets
they premed too c'ose to its edge. Mingled with them, how-
ever, were a strorg body of the 22nd Regt of the line, not
os duty, bat enjoying their leave of abuser from Anglesey
Barracks, and contemplating the performances of the sister
service with no professional concern in what was to be done.

the accumulation of a good deal of awoke and haze, by
which the view of the (het wee rendered lees distinct

Royal yacht bad gone fir out to the Nab, and marked
tke farthest limit of the cosine, the whole mighty
fleet at once weighed anchor, case off the trappings of its
nattering flags, end, with a stately and a meowed pace,
moved in souped) procession towards the p'ace occupied by
its illustrious Mistress—then, indeed, the wondering sad

gratified admiration of the multitude who saw
that glorious spectacle TONI to a bight r pitch
than before. It was as if the mountains had
"risen to walk the earth, when thous stupendous
creatures of human skill, which had seemed to be
permanent objects in the scenery around them, began to
stride over the SOL The increasing distance from which
they loomed through the misty atmosphere seemed in no
at preciable degree to diminish their relative Testae's. They
were tollowed, until they reached their goal and turned,
by the 'tamest gees of many constant eyes.
The fleet, en hour or two later, returned to the ana outgo
which they at first occupied; the royal squadreo wis sa-
luted, as in the morning, upon pealing the Spit buoy on its
way bark into the harbour. Tao gunboats stationed against
Soothsea Castle fired FiX sounds at half-past four, giving
the people on the beach en op .ortanity of observing how
their guns are worked. Her lilajeaty'e yecht thea returned
into Portsmouth, and the entertainment of the city was

OILKICKBR POINT AND FORT MONKTON.
(ram ♦ SPECIAL CORRISPONDENT.)
The position of these two plates is, perhaps, the most
favourable the along the entire coast re r obtaining a com-
plete and uninterrupted view of much a paw iti.t los that of
yesterday, and, corsequently, it was selected for that par-
ries by an immense number of the old inhabit ,nts of the
district. Gilkicker Pant is aituat•d on the O sport side
of the bay, a little more than a mile from that great navel
institution, Hasler Hoepital, and between two and three
miles from Portsmouth Harbour. The coast from the har-
bour to this spiel headland forms one side of a triangle,
running is a westerly direction, while opposite to it is a
corresponding iodination of the coast east ward, of about
the same extent, and terminated by &oath Sea Castle.
All along the coast, from Oo•port to 011 kicker Point-, and
Indeed even beyond she latter, the scenery is of a fortress-
like character ; the defences c ;Lamenting with Block Home
Fort. and terminating with New Fort. Moi.kton Fort is
about a quarter of a mile from Gilk,eker Point. It is a
regular fortification, both land weeds ai d seawards, and is at
present garrisoned by the II impi hire Militia, a detachment
of whom tined the met in t•ee immediate vicinity.
From the situation thus indicated, almost the entire fleet,
extending from a point opposite South Son Cond.., on the one
side, to some distance beyond Stokes's Bay on the other—s
dibtanes of several milesmight be slava teaen la at a g:ance.
The impression produced on tae mind by the view of this
spreading armada is one which cannot stagy be for. otteo.
At the easteramost extremity of this long array was seen the
Doke of Wellington, bearing it c licit of the Commander-
iitChief, and mewed abreast of this monster of the deep lay
the Royal George, the former bending the fort (Laskin
and the latter the sterboard division. Then came, simi:stly
breastwise, the Orion and the Nile, the domes Watt and the
Conqueror, the Majestic and the Cr. e•y, the Exmouth and
the Cte,er, the Ccolosens and ilia Algiers, and al
other lineof•nattio ships, witch again were suc-
ceeded by screw frigatne, also in twos, and other
versals of a smaller clan•, extending altogether far
away In the direction of Southampton. Between the
leviathans thus anchored ..breast and the mainland were
moored the mortar hosts and the gun batteries, the t-rmer
being chiefly in front if F. rt Monkt te, cutter-ringed, and
exceedingly inoffensive and yacht-like :n appearance, while
the floating batteries, as unsightly in aspect as they
have proved themselves to be f irmidable in action, were
lying quietly at anchor abcut two miles further to the east.
Bet few gunboats were visible from this point et an catty
period of the day, though hers and there they were flitting
about with their three mute with nei•eless celerity.
