THE REVIEW AT ALDERSHOT (TO-DAY).—lnfor-
mation was received at Aldershot on Saturday, intimating
that the Prince of Wales, accompanied by the Duke of Cam-
bridge and others, would pay a visit to that station to-day.
The following divisional order was accordingly issued :
" The Royal Horse Artillery, Cavalry Royal Artillery,
Royal Engineers, Royal Engineer Train, Military Train,
and the three infantry brigades will parade as strong as pos-
sible on Caesars Camp at 10.45 a,m. on Monday, the 17th
inst. Infantry regiments to be furnished with 10 rounds
of blank ammunition per man." It is expected that there
will be operands of 12,000 troops on the ground. An escort
awaited their royal highnesses on the arrival of the 10.18
train at Farnborough.
THE REFORM MOVEMENT IN IRELAND.—A re-
markable and crowded reform meeting was held in the
Ulster Hall, Belfast, on Saturday. The Orange district
secretary presided. Four thousand persons were present,
the majority of whom were members of the Orange lodges;
but among the speakers was Mr. M'Kenna, editor of one
of the local organs of Roman catholicism. The meeting
adopted unanimously resolutions in favour of an extension
of household suffrage to Irish boroughs.

The armourer at whose shop the Pole Beregow-
ski bought the pistol which he used against the Emperor
of Russia has addressed the following letter to the Paris
papers :—" While expressing my regret that it should
have been at my establishment that Beregowski bought
the pistol, I yet appeal to your sense of justice to correct
the statement in your journal relative to the qtality of
the arm. It bean the mark of Si. Etienne. It wss new,
WAS in good condition, but of very inferior quality. It was
sold for Sir., and, moreover, Beregowski bought a box of
percussion caps for 50e., and of bullet. for 25c. He also
asked for powder, which we declined to give him. If the
arm burst, it was because it was too much or badly loaded,
this sort of common pistol not being intended for bullets
forced into it. It is usually used in rural Nies on the occa-
sion of marriages or baptisms."

The Boston Aolrertiser of the sth says :—" Im-
peachment is dead, and nothing remains except to bury it
decently in a report ; and from what is said es to the
amount of material for this purpose it is plain that the
committee intend to bury it pretty deeply, where no
human eye will ever reach. And now who are the mourners
at the demise of this extraordinary scheme ! It must have
had a parent, but is anybody very anxious now to claim
the paternity!"
NORTH v. SOUTH.—The boasted culture of the
South has always been limited in extent and in degree.
The rare hothouse fruit of wealth and luxurious
leisure, it has been best displayed in an appreciation of
the advantages of education in the northern schools—
schools which it is impossible to overpraise. In the world
of letters, at least, the Southern states have shone by
reflected light; nor is it too much to say that mainly by
their connexion with the North the Carolinas have been
eared from sinking to the level of Mexico and the An-
tilles. Since the revolution days, it is amazing how few
of the thinkers of America have been born south of Mason
and Dixon's line. The almost solitary name of Calhoun is
a poor equivalent for those of Prescott, Motley, Bancroft,
Webster, Lowell, Bryant, Emerson, Sumner, Dana,
Holmes, and Hawthorne, which belong to the single state
of Massachusetts. Whether we look to Tuttle or Louisiana
it would seem that there is something in the fire of a
tropical sun which takes all the poetic fire out of Anglo-
Saxon veins. and the indolence a bleb is the natural con-
comitant of despotism ham the same benumbing effect.
Like the Spartan marshalling his Helots, the planter
looming among his slaves was made dead to art by a
paralysing sense of his own superiority. Some years ego
• scheme to establish a Southern university was aban-
doned, bemuse the " witienlise wistneraey " refused to
associate with the teachers. All genuine transatlantic
literature is inspired by the spirit of confidence in labour.
It can only flourish in a free soil, and for all its vitality,
all its aspirations, its scant performance and large promise,
