morning opened with a pelting rain, which had continued
the greater part of the preceding night, and this probably
may account for the comparatively thin attendance of the
general public ; but as the day wore on the clouds cleared
away, and the moment her Majesty alighted from the train
the suu shone out with full July power.

The arrangements made by the govefnMent for the
accommodation and convenience of the two houses of
the legislature were unexceptionable, but only about 140
of the Lords and Commons presented themselves at the rail-
way station. The hoar fixed for the review was half past
three, and the luncheon had been ordered punctually at half
past two, and some twenty minutes before that time Lord
Palmerston appeared on horseback at the North Camp gate,
heading a procession of ten London omnibusses, on
which the well known inscriptions " Paddington to
Bank," "Peckham Rye to Gracechurch•street," " Piccadilly
to Whitechapel," were conspicuous, and which bore, as
inside and outside passengers, the senatorial dignity—
hereditary and electoral—of the empire.. Very rapidly
the omnibuses were eased of their burden, and
the loud and general interrogation, " Where do
lunch ?" having been satisfactorily answered,
ad Commoners proceeded to examine the camp.

intention to inspect were those which bad returned from
the Crimea since her last visit to the camp, and which sbe
had consequently not yet seen. These consisted of the
Enniskillen Dragoons and the Scotch Greys, and part of a
light cavalry regiment, the Royal Sappers and Miners, and
the 34th, 41st, 49th, 93rd Highlanders, and the 2nd
battalion of the Rifle Brigade. The total number of men
under arms were said to be 14,000. The troops having
taken up their position, her Majesty and the Princesses, in
open carriages, attended by Prince Albert, who wore a
Field-Marshal's uniform ; the Prince of Prussia, who was
habited as a Prussian general officer; the Duke of Cam-
dridge, who wore his proper uniform as a general in
the British service ;

e two young Princes ; Lord
Rokeby, and General Sno(lye, who was the commanding
officer of the day—rode down ctach line of troops, inspecting
the men narrowly, and apparently with much interest.
The troops having then formed into battalions, and headed
by their bands, marched past at quick time. This over
the men again fell into line, forming three sides of a square,
and her Majestyland the Princesses having alighted, 'walked
along the whole of each line, the Queen, who leant on
the arm of the Prince Consort, stopping and talking,
to the officers about the servicEs of their respective regi-
