PORTSMOUTH, JULY 1.

The chips forming the fleet to be reviewed by the
Queen and the Sultan on the 17th instant have begun to
assemble at Spithead, and are taking up the positions
assigned to them as they arrive. The Lion, 60, screw line-
of-battle ship, Captain John M. Hayes, C. 13., arrived yea-
terilay afternoon from Greenock, and has anchored to the
westward of the Spithead anchorage, off Fort Moncton.
The Irresistible, GO, screw, Captain John Borlase, C. 8.,
arrived this morning, and is moored neat to the Lion.
The Black Prince, 40, iron screw frigate ; the Valiant, 18,
iron screw frigate ; and the Royal Sovereign, 5, screw
turret ship, were commissioned this morning for service at
the review, the latter by Captain Cowper Coles, C. 8., her
I designer.
The Malabar, iron screw troopship, was docked this
morning, to be brought forward for temporary service at
the review, after which she will proceed to the East Indian
station.

THE FORTHCOMING REVIEW IN HYDE-PARK.

The following memorandum has been issued
from the Horse Guards :

The troops mentioned below will be reviewed by her
Majesty the Queen in Hyde-park on Friday, the sth of
July, at 11 o'clock a.ni., and will be formed from the
right in the order specified. The Horse Artillery and Ca-
valry in close columns of batteries and squadrons ; the ln.
fantry in contiguous quarter distance columns, facing east.
The line will be commanded by General the Earl of
Lucan, K.C.8., the Royal Artillery by Colonel Philpotts,
the Cavalry Brigades by Major-General Lord G. Paget,
C.B. and Major-General Hodge, C.B. ; the Brigade of
Guards, by Major-General the Hon. James Lindsay ; the
Infantry Brigades, by Major-General Ronny and Major-
Guswil Campbell, C. 8., and th• Brigade of Royal
Engineers and Royal Marines (Artillery and Light In-
fantry), by Major-General Travers, C.B. The ground
will be kept by the 2nd Life Guards, and by detachments
of the 4th Dragoon Guards and other troops, under the
direction of the Quartermaster-General.
No carriages to be admitted on the review ground
excepting those of the royal family. No hone-'
men to be admitted on the review ground on this or
union, with the following exceptions, viz. :-- 1
personages, her Majesty's Aides-de-Camp in W ' ,
mounted officers belonging to the troops to be re
Officers in uniform will be admitted without tickets
within the enclosure in front of the gallery, but they will
not be allowed to take or pass any person in with them
who is not provided with a ticket. No grooms are to be
admitted except those belonging to the royal fatally.
A royal salute will be fired by the Royal Artillery, on a
signal being given of the approach of her Majesty by the
road along the Serpentine. The line will salute on her
Majesty taking her station at the royal standard. After
receiving the salute her Majesty will drive down the line,
from right to left. When the Queen resumes her station
at the saluting point the troops will march past
in slow and quick time—the Royal Artillery and
Cavalry in open column of batteries and squad-
rons, the Infantry by divisions and grand divisions.
The Infantry, after pasting the saluting point, will close
to quarter distance on the front company, and march
around preparatory to marching put in quick time in
grand divisions, after which they will return to their ori-
ginal ground and re-form contiguous columns. The Royal
Artillery and Cavalry will move round to their original
position preparatory to trotting past. When their front
is clear, the Royal Artillery and Cavalry will trot past
and form on their original ground. The line will advance
in parade order and astute. A royal salute will be fired as
her Majesty leaves the park.
During the marching past, the staff and others, not in
immediate attendance upon the Queen, will form on each
side of the bands, facing the saluting point. The troops
will leave the park, after the review, n. such order as may
be directed by the Quartermaster-General. The duties at
the west-end will be taken, on the day of the review, by
the let Battalion Grenadier Guards from the Tower ; the
guards mounting on the evening of Thursday, July 4, and
being relieved at 5 p.m. on the following day. The Assist-
ant and Deputy-Assistant Adjutant-General, and Assistant
and Deputy-Assistant Quartermaster-General at the Horse
Guards, will place themselves at the disposal of General
the FArlof Lucan: for duty during the review • and the

A NuisAgeg iii WESVIIINSTEL—A public meet-
ing, convened by the churchwardens of St. Anne, West-
minster, in compliance with a requisition signed by a large
number of the inhabitants, was held last night in the
Vestry-hall, Church-street, Soho, " To consider if any,
and what steps, can be taken to abate the nuisance and
public wandsl caused by the great increase in the number
of foreign and other prostitutes who parade the streets of
the parish in broad daylight, causing great annoyance to
respectable householders sad their families, as well as
much injury to business." Mr. C. Wakeling, the senior
churchwarden, occupied the chair. Dr. Rogers, in prop°.
posing the first resolution, said that the anon taken
by the St. James's authorities in ridding the
Quadrant and its vicinity of prostitutes had tended
to render the nuisance in St. Anne's intolerable, because
the women who had been driven from the place referred
to had taken up their abodes in St. Anne, and now it was
impossible to walk through certain parts of the parish in
the open day without having one's feelings outraged by
shameless and indecent exhibitions. The resolution was
to the effect that the increase in the number of prostitutes,
especially foreign, in the parish, had become so great a
public scandal, and the difficulty of dealing with it effi-
ciently being a serious tax on the ratepayers, that it was
desirable to urge on the government the necessity of legis-
lating upon the subject. Other resolutions urging the
desirableness of the extension of the Contagion Prevention
Act passed last year, to the n.etrepolis, and appointing a
deputation to wait upon the Home Secretary, went pro•
posed and unanimously adopted.

there broken forth. Yet even if Mount Sethe should
have been triumphantly occupied by Omar Pacha
there would not be any the less a prospect of several
months of hard fighting and determined resistance.
This Cretan question, in its simple issue between
the insurgents and the government of Turkey, is
at present a question of supplies. Since my
return from the seat of war I have been asked a
hundred times—" How long can the Christians
hold out 1" I have answered that they will hold
out as long as they have something to eat, and
some cartridges to fire at the Turks. Mere turn-
ing of their flanks and threatening of their centre,
cutting their line of communication, or taking
theitstzong positions.. will .uot mem to camber

them. They can always climb to fresh fastnesses,
and scramble round the Turks without serious loss.
It is • question of supplies in Crete, and the
insurgent Christians are not yet reduced to by
any means a hopeless condition.
What with the harvest, which is now being
gathered, and the sacks of biscuit brought by
Greek blockade runners, there will be enough to
stave off actual famine in Crete until the end of
October. Should the friends of the good cause
exert themselves in earnest and procure more ships,
as well as more provisions, it will be possible to
stave off the famine for another year. But Turkish
devastation, and the necessary losses of uncivilised
warfare, have brought Crete to a pitiable state.
The Sultan's generale have behaved as though all
thought of ever again deriving a revenue from the
island had been abandoned by their master. Trees
have been cut down, villages have been destroyed,
and vineyards laid waste, with ruthless severity.
There is not even encouragement for those who
submit, as witness the state of things in Northern
Kisamos, near the Turkish garrison. I spent
several days amongst the disarmed villagers of that
district, was more than once within five minutes'
walk of the enemy's patrols. Treachery between
Christian and Christian, whether among those
who have submitted or not, is almost unheard
of in Crete. A man who would steal your
coat in hopes of finding some tobacco in one of
the pockets, would not betray you to the Turks
for a hundred pounds. The poverty-stricken '
Cretans are true as steel in this respect, and thus
it happened that 1 could pass safely through a sub-
mitted district, and sleep quietly within the grasp
of a pacha. My observations on the advantage of
submission tended to convince me that nothing but
stern necessity should lead to such a step. In
Northern Kisamos they were obliged to submit,
being upon a strip of land defenceless against the
Turks, and scarcely beyond cannon-shot from the for-
tress. But far from being encouraged to continue in
their homes and to set an example to other Cretans,
these wretched villagers were constantly harried
by detachments of Mahomedan soldiers—their few
remaining sheep wore taken from them at nominal
prices, and their women were subjected to outrage.
I found the people in one place mourning for the
fate of two messengers sent into the fort to sell
some baskets of fruit. The fruit had been sold
and paid fur, the messengers had passed through
the gates on their return, when they were way-
laid by Cretan Mahomedana, and forthwith deca-
pitated. A little while before my arrival an old
priest had been killed by Turks in his own village,
and the murderers had stalked away unpunished.
You will not be surprised to learn that, after in-
cidents like these, the people of Northern Kisamos
were inclined to fly to the mountains no matter
what hardships they might encounter.
I spoke of cutting down trees and burning villages
in connection with Turkish policy in Crete. But
the work of devastation has not been confined to
modern times. It is two centuries since the Vene-
tians were driven from their splendid colony, since
Heracleum was captured by the Turks, after a
siege which was their last great military achieve-
ment, and the whole island passed under the
paternal rule of the Sublime Porte. During these
two centuries everything has gone to ruin and
decay. A population of a million has dwindled to
less than three hundred thousand, trade has been
stifled, and the value of property depreciated.
There are Venetian villas and Venetian castles
still to be seen in Crete, but the villas are roofless,
and most of the castles are crumbling into heaps of
stone. So it is with churches and drinking foun-
tains, with gardens and well-built villages.
Modern Crete is a poor reflection of what
Crete was two centuries ago. The great revo-
lution of 1891 brought violent destruction in
place of slow decay, monasteries were burnt,
churches were gutted, and valleys laid waste.
There have been subsequent uprisings of the
people, with more of ruin and slaughter, until at
the present time the last dismal page of the Turkish
history in Crete is being exhibited to indignant
Europe. Is there any sufficient reason that such a
history should have prolongation or postscript ?
7 PAL —The news of Omar Pacha on Mount
Sethe seems to be fully confirmed. His losses were
great, and his success has been comparatively
barren. lam informed by a gentleman arrived
from Kanea that with each month of the struggle,
and with every check sustained by the Turks, the
Cretan ?dahomedans in the cities had assumed a
more threateniug attitude. There is danger that
they will attempt to massacre all the Christians
within their reach at the first news of foreign in-
vention ; so if the " Powers " think of inter-
vening, they should send their fleets beforehand to
Cretan waters.

A MAD DOO.-011 Saturday afternoon Mr.
Doidge, bookseller, of Devonshire-terrace, Plymouth, end
the customers who were in his shop were alarmed by seeing
a large water spaniel rush furiously into and through the
shop and proceed upstairs. On tee landing of the first
floor are two doors, one leading to the nursery, in which
were the children, and the other to a back bedroom. The
nursery door happened roost fortunately to he closed, but the
dog found its way to the bedroom, and leaped with a bound
through the window to the yard below, a height of lift. The
animalkelonged to a military officer, and while out with him
in the afternoon had shown signs of being in a rabid state,
and had bolted, its owner following in pursuit. The officer
arrived at Mr. Doidge's shop immediately after the dog,and
finding that the animal was in the yard, courageously went
thither, and seizing it firmly by the back of the neck
dragged it, with the foam towing from its mouth, through
the shop to the street. Among the crowd which instantly
assembled was a photographer living near, who fetched
from his premises some prussic acid, a tablespoon full of
which was poured down the animal's throat, and it fell
back dead. The narrow escape of those persons whom the
deg passed, and the courage of the officer in grappling
with an animal one bite from which would probably bays
caused hiss a terrible death, combine to render this as
thrilling an incident as has transpired in Plymouth foe a
long period.— Western Morning Yeses.

Much interest wee excited lest night by the performance

Wien abroad, as a pianist, stands so high. Madlle.
Nilsson achieved a success scarcely inferior to any of
the several triumphs she has already gained since
her first appearance at Her Majesty's Theatre three weeks
since. The difficult bravura song of the queen of Night in
Da Zalhaiiaila the Willa illiebiasersips for Ihe .
high notes of the heed voice, were executed with a light-
near and voluble ease, and a grace of style that produced
an immediate encore—a result that also attended the duet
from Fiparo. Mdlle. Titiena' powerful delivery of the
recitative and air from the name opera, and Mr. Mohler%
air frombecia (acoompanied on the pianoforte by Mr.Cusins),
were given in the usual style of those well-known artists.
The orchestral pieces and the accompaniment. to the
concerto were played with great steadiness, and with that
improvement in attention to details of expression and con-
trasts of light and shade which has resulted from Mr.
Cumin' efforta during this, his first season of office se con-
ductor. At the termination of the concert, Mr. Cueing
was called forward, and received with such applause as
testified to the satisfaction of the subscribers at the
mode in which the new conductor has fulfilled his
duties. Mr. embus, during part of the evening, con-
ducted with a handsome baton that has been presented by
Sir Thomas Gladstone to the Philharmonic Society. The
directors state that they " have the pleasure of MIIIIO/120*
ing that in the course of the season M. Gounod proposed
to them the dedication of an important new composition
of a sacred character requiring an organ, &c. ; this was
thought not feasible for performance by the Philharmonic
Society. They trust, however, that by next season M.
Gouued will have completed an orchestral work which he
has promised to write, and which it is his wish shall be
performed at the concerts of the society." In other re-
spects the promises of the prospectus of the present season
have been fulfilled—Mr. Sullivan'. overture, Maretion,
having been produced at the sixth concert, azul Professor
Bennett's completed symphony last night, as alre.,tly re-
corded. The crowded state of the room and the general
satisfaction at the results of the present season promise
well for that of next year.

hire. Swanborough took her annual benefit at
this house last night, and the programme, to say the bast
.of it, was remarkable. Mr. Byron's well-known Strand
burlesque of iinuAue was the chief piece of the evening,
but in place of the regular performers—the veterans of ex-
travaganza—the principal characters wore plaecd ru the
bands and legs of various members of the aridaaracy.

Lord Arthur Pelham Clinton, R.R., M.P., km Sir
Brian de Bois Guilbert aad Rebecca were given to cote-
nioners, Messrs. It. It. and W. L. Maitland ; but the

obtained as much laughter and applause us his more noble
companions. Messrs. T. G. Bowles and 0. Younjumband
completed the aisle part of the caste, and Master 1 epee

examination in Strand builesque, appeared in the

this class of acting that was not exceeded by Miss Ada

LONDON, TUESDAY, JULY 2.

Taw remains nothing more to be done with the
Memorandum recently addressed to the command-
ing officers of Volunteers. It could not, from its
nature, impose new duties on the Volunteer force ;
at most, it was an endeavour to state the existing
law, and as such it has failed by the testimony of
those who are best able to speak on the matter—
the officers for whose enlightenment it was issued.
When in both Houses of Parliament commanding
officers of Volunteers declare with Lord DENBIGH
that the Memorandum has placed the force in a
position more difficult than that which it was in
before, it is obvious that the end of the
Government has not been attained. From
the Ministerial explanations which have been
given in Parliament it appears that the impres-
aion which the Circular has everywhere produced
is contrary to that which the Government in-
tended. That being so, Earl COWPER was well
entitled to observe that the Circular is a very
dangerous document. On the other hand, the
resolution passed by the House of Commons on
Friday last is as clear as could be desired, and as
the SECRETARY for WAR declares it is also in har-
mony with the intentions of the Government in
issuing the Circular, Volunteers cannot do better
than keep it in mind as expressing the rule by which
their action in case of domestic tumult is certain
to be judged :—" That the Volunteer force was
" established solely for the purpose of security
" against foreign invasion, and that the member.
" of that force, in case of domestic tumult or dis-
" turbance, have no obligations or duties distinct
" from those of other citizens."

SIR JOHN PAR INOTON'S reply to Earl GROBVIINOR
and the deputation which waited upon him yes-
terday shows that the removal of Knightsbridge
Barracks cannot be much longer resisted. What
is asked fur is the abatement of a nuisance, and
scope and opportunity for a metropolitan improve-
ment that has become indispensable. The bar-
racks stand in a court suburb, at the finest en-
trance into London, in the midst of a new town
of mansions, in which they form, in Mr. Lowe's
words, "an isthmus of barbarism," with prosti-
tutes and public-houses of the lowest class for their
surroundings. The barracks are ugly, inconve-
nient, and unhealthy, and they are in the way ;
they engross ground which could be better occu-
pied, and they hinder other improvements. Sir
JOHN defended the position, as in duty
bound, but with the air of a com-
mander who looks forward to an early
ant favourable capitulation. To take away
the barracks and allow palatial residences over-
looking the Park to spring up in their room
would be to confer a very great pecuniary ad-
vantage upon the owners of house property in the
neighbourhood. That, of course, is very unfortu-
nate, but it cannot be helped. Then the soldiers,
it seems, are very partial to these quarters, and
would not like removal ; but this difficulty, we
hope, may be got over. Another of Sir JOHN'S
objections was artfully addressed to the preju-
dices of the clam who addressed him, but would
