ST. JAMES'S HALL.—This evening, Mr. Sohn
Caulfield, for• many years a member of the Hay-
market company, and now chairman at the Oxford Music
Hall, takes his benefit at the above hall. Mr. Caulfield
has recently been ill, and many professional friends have
rallied round him in response to his appeal for their co-
operation. A first rate list of vocal, instrumental, and
miscellaneous talent is announced for the occasion.

CONFEDERATE REVIEW.—The Southern papers
bring an account of a review of General Ewell's
corps by Gen. Lee. A correspondent of the Petersburgh
Express gives a description of the scene :—" The bugle
soon announced all in readiness, and Gen. Lee soon came
riding up, and now the eavalcade, composed of Gen. Lee
and staff, Gen. Ewell and staff, anti the division commanders
started off at a swift gallop to the right of the first division,
and soon they are seen coming down the front of the line,
each brigade coming to a • present' as the cavalcade passed,
and as they swept by us the strains of music were swelling
up along the line. They passed around the left of the lite,
dashed back to the right of the second division, and iv'
viewed the second and third divisions in the same mantler
as the first, and once more came back to the original awl;

again carry those colours that had oft before proudly waved
over his head. His colonel consented, and the affair being
mentioned to Ganeral J ohnstone, he took the colours and
presented theta to the young man in person as a reward for
the noble patriotism which prompted hint to such an act of
self-denial and love of country. The review being now
over, the crowd of spectators dispersed, and the troops, with
three hearty cheers for General Lee, commenced wending
their way back to their camps."
I lIE PROLIFIC HARVEST.—In Dorsetshire and
Somersetshire the farmers are feeding their horned
beasts and pigs with wheat. The grain is mixed with
beans for the former, and with barley for the latter. One
farmer in Dorsetahire now has a thousand pigs facteninganon
wheat and barley meal. Wheat is selling for £lO a leerd ,thadn.
bread at tenpence a gallon ; wheat is even c
