REVIEW IN ST. JAMES'S PARK THIS MOBNIS°;
—The Parade in St. James's Park attracted an innnerill
concourse of persons. Soon after nine o'clock the three
battalions of the Grenadier, Coldstream, and Fusilier
Guards from the Wellington, Charing-cross, and Porto'
street barracks, headed by their respective bands, °egre
marched to the ground and formed in line from the 111,.
,1,
Egyptian gun to the mortar on the other side of the Pi'd
also along the wall by the Admiralty. The regimeet,git
Royal Horse Guards Blue, with their splendid band ill, t'„;e,
state uniform, was stationed opposite Lady Dover's al'ecl
near the Treasury, upon whose balcony was a distinga,'ssl
party of the fashionable world. At ten o'clock his t
Highness Prince Albert, in the uniform of the Fes'ibee
Guards, of which he is Colonel, and accompanied bY, 0.
Duke of Wellington, his Royal Highness the Duke of re
bridge, and a brilliant staff of officers, rode into the 85%0
and proceeded along the line, the bands playing the Na`teat
Anthem. The gallant party then took their station and
the Horse Guards, and the troops marched past in slow
and
quick time. They were then again formed in linetriet•
having gone through the usual evolutions, their Royal ";tes
nesses and the Duke left the ground. The morning es,
disagreeable from a drizzling rain, but the thousands of P
sons present bore it patiently.

INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE.—It does not re,- Itie,
professed political economist to know that excessive oe'rve,
invariably defeat the object they are designed to aullivg;
and instead of augmenting revenue, create sniliggi to
thus prcving at one and the same time prejudicia
jet
finance and detrimental to morality. It may be safelYsea
down, as an indisputable fact, that there is not aPPend
in the hundreds of the hundreds of thousands who clots,
re-cross betwixt Dunkerque, Dover, Boulogne,
cirri
Dieppe, and their corresponding ports, who does ilet_rsge,
one or more letters ; and taking a very moderate a" ouid
founded on experience and inquiries at this port, we The d,
set down the number at three for each individual. cog
computing the number of passengers coming anLgrgblY
through here daily at three hundred (which is consider of
inside the mark), we arrive at the respectable aggregaroke
nine hundred letters per day, an amount we a iegy
bold to say, much larger than that going through th saca
timate channel, while some of the documents are et .veri
corpulent dimensions, that the most capacious recce'
