The late heavy rains have rendered field dar.
Aldershot almost impracticable, and route-marnillvg
t...,;,
may be considered to have taken the place of Wrha
tary evolutions. Nevertheless it seems likely ne
whenever a favourable opportunity occursthetr°°'
will be exercised in field manceuvres. As at pret

arranged a divisional field day was to take ploeu $o
10 o'clock this morning, weather permitting.
