PRESENT CLAIMS.
IT is said Russia claims what Turkey won't
allow : possibly the Emperor of the North is slot content to
take "Turkey figs and carpets" in preference to "Russian tallow
and hides ;" or he may think a slice from the Eastern Empire
would probably improve his Northern dominions. However this
affair may terminate, it will no way influence those claims which
the season brings round ; nor is it desirable it should, for from
them manifold pleasures are derived. Gentlemen of all professions,
Mechanics, and Labourers claim attire suitable for wear in their
occupations, and for Dress occasions—the articles which never fail
to impart an elegant, gentlemanly, and fashionable appearance. All
these advantages, associated with very low charges, are displayed
in the Clothing to Measure, or Ready-made, at the Establishment
of E. Moses and Soo, Aldgate and Minories, or their Branch
Establishment, New Oxford-street, corner of Hart-street.
The claims of Young Gentlemen about to return from school may
be easily anticipated by Parents and Guardians. These claims are
new claims, which E. Moses and Soo furnish better, more fashion-
able, more comfortable, more durable, and far cheaper than any
other House can do. For the Midsummer Holidays novelties have
been provided excelling even former displays. This Attire will give
pleasure to every purchaser, and E. Moses and Soo have the greatest
pleasure in thus providing every novel description of Summer Dress
at the lowest possible prices.
The claims of the largest Clothing Business in the world--the
most gigantic and artistic Tailoring Establishment in the universe--
the most fashionable Hosiery Department in the kingdom—a Hat
and Cap Branch which has no parallel, and a magnificent Boot and
Shoe Emporium, at E. Moses and Sores, claim public attention for
superior quality and very economical charges for every article.
THE BENEFITS OF EMIGRATION.
Emigration has put the country in possession of gold, which all
financiers declare to be the best cm ren y ; it has provided employ-
ment for capital and a field for labour, which nothing else could
have done; but the greatest benefits Emigrants can avail them-
selves of are Outfits and Clothing provided by E. Moses and t,ost
these display suitablillty, completeness, and economy in articles re-
quired by Emigrants of every profession and occupation, or may be
selected for any voyage or climate—the very lowest price being
charged for every article. A separate Department is kept for Out-
fitting. Ship sailing information Red full Lists of Outfits for Ladies
amid Gentlemen, may be bad on application, or post free to any part
of the kingdom.
Observe!—The Largest Wholesale Clothing Establishment in the
world offers the best opporturities for investment to Merchants,
Captains, and Emigrants.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like
falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have

THE MARYLEBONE CLUB AND GROUND v

THE COUNTY OF SUSSEX.
Yesterday the contest was resumed, by Mr. Haygarth
being joined by Grundy. The former ran a career of
success until at the point of 31, he was bowled by Dean.
His score consisted of a four, two threes, six twos, and
singles. The game proceeded, but no man made a stand
until Dakin appeared, who carried out his bat with 26
attached to his name, the number being thus made up—
a four, three threes, a two, and the remainder by singles.
The total of this innings was 185, or nine less only than
that of the county, and of course the effect upon the
betting was very considerable.
Sussex in due course entered upon their second innings,
which they ran up to 105.
The Marylebone now embarked upon their second
innings, and, after Mr. S. Ponsonby.had made an offer-
ing of 20 in five 3's, a 2, and three singles, and Chatter-
ton had given 14 by three 3's, a 2, and three l's, and
Adams (not out) nine, by a 3, two 3's, and a couple of
l's, the game was struck for the day, when they showed
a score of 55, leaving them 59 to tie, or 60 to win, with
three wickets only down. The score stood thus at the
close of the day :

Historians will note the event of yesterday among the
memorable points of English military annals. Since the
days of Queen Elizabeth, no female sovereign of Great
Britain has appeared, as did Queen Victoria yesterday,
riding at the head of a collected body of troops, un-
equalled in discipline and of well-tried valour ; and cer-
tainly never was monarch received with more gratifying
and merited enthusiasm on the part of her people.
The circumstances of the day are sufficiently remark.
able to require something more than ordinary comment.
No similar military display has taken place for a long
series of years. The question naturally arises, does the
aspect of the times render such demonstration of warlike
power necessary ? Does foreign aggression threaten ?
Certainly not. The intention of the camp at Chobham
is simply to carry out what may be called, in the fashion
of the day, the industrial progress of military art. The
men are the same who fought through Spain, and won
at Waterloo. But the materiel requires renovation.
There may be improvements in arms ; the skill of later
years may have given greater lightness, with equal
strength. Much of the glitter that a long parade in
peace has added to our military harness may be cum-
bersome to the active soldier in the field. Some expe-
rience has been gained in India—much in the desultory
warfare at the Cape. A great deal has to be gained
from the French campaigners in Algeria, nor should the
vast bodies of men lately put in motion on the
Continent have left us without a lesson, whether
as to arms and accoutrements, or the manoeuvring and
massing of large bodies on the field. To take advan-
tage of these, it became necessary to bring together
the various branches of the service into simultaneous
action, and for this purpose only the encampment has
been formed. It is said that the country is indebted to
the Sovereign for the ssggestion which has been so ad •
mirably carried out. Whether the idea may have
emanated from the Queen, or from the General Com-
manding-in-Chief, is of little moment. The great object,
undoubtedly, is the improved efficiency of our army, by
the rejection of all that is unfit and inexpedient for the
present time, and the preservation, with an increased
utility, of all that is good an effective in the existing
system.
It was certainly under this impression—and with no
feelings of anxiety similar to those which pervaded the
minds of our sturdy forefathers, as they wended their
way to Bagshot-heath on a like occasion some 60 years
since—that the highest and the noblest born of the land'
together with the bone and sinew of our commonwealth,
yesterday poured along, in one continuous stream, from
;
Chertsey, Windsor, Woking, and Staines, through the
rural lanes, and over the breezy heath, to witness the
grand military review on Chobham Common.
If the authorities supposed that by the selection of
this locality they would avoid the presence of the great
crowd of sight-seers, they had not consulted the records
of former experience on this point, nor had they taken
into calculation the increased facilities afforded for loco-
motion by railway. It is an undoubted fact that the
masses who witnessed the review exceeded in number
any similar assemblage, at the same distance from Lon-
don, ever brought together. To the myriads who were
present it is unnecessary to point this out, any morethan
to remark on the admirable order and decorum pre-
served throughout the day by the people themselves,
without the slightest compulsion, without the interfer-
ence of a soldier, and with scarcely the presence of a
policeman. To those who have deferred their visit until
after the first experiments, no better description of the
scene can be conveyed than by a comparison, both as to
numbers and excitement, of Chobham Common with
Epsom Downs on the great gathering of a Derby day.
The two great railways serving the district, in spite of
all their enormous appliances and the use of no ordinary
exertion, were over-taxed. There can be no doubt that
great inconvenience and disappointment must have been
felt by many parties. Nor could it well be otherwise.
The event was rare—the attraction not to be calculated.
Experience will teach the railway officials some means
of more accurately measuring the public requirements.
The incidents of the morning journey by rail were
varied, and not without interest. The platform of the
Waterloo station wore, at the earliest hour, a remark-
able appearance. Persons of high rank, in general con-
spicuous for their coolness of demeanour, were rushing
and crowding about in an excited state. Ladies in riding
habits, and officers in uniform, the exquisite morning
toilette of May-fair, and the less pretentious costumes of
Holborn and the Strand, were equally imploring the good
offices of half-frantic policemen. The crowd of passen-
gers was so great at the earliest hour that all the trains
provided had been freighted and sent off before eight
o'clock, at which time the station was nearly bare of
carriages, while upon the platform were some thousand
persons, supported by a be.-wy hattallun of other ex-
pectants, pressing up behind them. Conspicuous among
these was no less a person than the General Command-
ing-in-Chief, in full uniform, with his wife and daughter,
the latter in a close riding habit. That the review
might take place without the presence of the head of
the army seemed at one moment probable, but this
flagrant absurdity was prevented by the timely arrival
of a sagacious, and, as he proved himself, a most inde-
fatigable officer, Mr. Godson, superintendent of the rail-
way, who, up to this moment, had been engaged in
making preparations for the reception of her Majesty
and her illustrious relatives at the Nine Elms station.
By dint of some exertion, Mr. Godson placed at the
disposal of Viscount Hardinge some half a dozen car-
riages for the special conveyance of himself and party to
Chertsey. His lordship gladly availed himself of this
privilege, and kindly extended its accommodation to
several despairing friends, who eagerly addressed him
from all parts of the platform. Amongst these were
the Russian General Ogaroff, Lord Harry Vane, M.P.,
Lord Carington, Lady Dalmeny and Lady Louisa
Primrose, Lord Dufferin, Lady Graham and the Misses
Graham, the Earl of March, Colonel Chatterton, K.H.,
and Mrs. Chatterton, Mr. Augustus Lumley, and many
others.
The train sped rapidly to Kingston, where iutelli-
gence of its coming having been telegraphed, a previous
train en route to Woking was detained in order to allow
the precedence to the privilaged passengers. This delay
did not appear very pleasing to a distinguished party,
who were also in great haste and hurry to reach the field
of action. In the carriages, as we flew past them, we
observed the Marchioness of Ailesbury and a brilliant
party of the aristocracy.
The Chertsey station reached, a scene of great anima-
tion opened upon the travellers. Chargers held by mili-
tary grooms, and splendid equipages of every fashion,
thronged the railway yard. All was now hurry for the
road, and a neat and unpretending open landau, by the
side of which rode an orderly of the 17th Lancers, hav-
ing received Viscount and Viscountess Hardinge and
their daughter, had almost the first start of the party
for Chobham Common. Extortionate demands by fly-
drivers arc nothing unusual on occasions of this charac-
ter, but anything like the conscience of a Chertsey cab-
man is fortunately not often met with. The modest re-
quest of 51. ss. for the hire of a broken-down shandry-
dan and a roarer for half a day, and the obliging accept-
ance of 15s. each for a party over a short four miles, will
sufficiently exemplify our observations. Assuredly Mr.
Henry Fitzroy ought to extend the influence of his bill
within a circle that shall describe Chertsey. Nor would
the presence of the humane Mr. Thomas be superfluous
in the same locality during the next two months. From
this sweeping condemnation it is but fair to expect the
appointed vehicles and omnibuses in connection with the
railway company, which, at a time when the price of
conveyance had settled itself by the ordinary rule of sup-
ply and demand—the latter being in the ratio of 20,000
to 1,000 of the former—honestly preserved their ordi-
nary faro of ls. per journey. The volunteer omnibuses
from Brixton, Norwood, Camberwell, and other purlieus
charged from ss. to 10s., according to the dress and sex
of the victim. But the road, though sweetly rural with
its up and down hills, its large-fringed sides, and pretty
modest villas, was deep and sandy, as is every Surrey
lane. There was danger of rain—her Majesty's arrival
was expected—and all who could, secured the means of
transit, regardless of the extortion.
It was a pleasant sight to look upon—the long stream
of brilliant equipages traversing the road with their
gaily-dressed inmates, reminding the spectator of the
route to Ascot before the " glories of the road" had
dwindled under the influence of the " iron ways." As
they entered upon the heath the carriages drew up in
true race-course fashion in a long line, and formed, as it
were, an amphitheatre, overlooking the ground where
the evolutions of the day were to take place.
The camp, up to half-past 9 o'clock, was in a compara-
tively quiescent state. The men had just finished their
morning meal at this time, but immediately afterwards
the troops assembled on parade in front of their respec-
tive encampments for the ordinary daily inspection.
This movement was watched with intense interest by
the gradually increasing crowd who thronged every ele-
vated position on the field from which a view could he
obtained, darkening the summits of all the points of
rising ground, and spreading out in black dots over the
Common. There was no undue interference on the part
of the military ; on the contrary, the public were allowed
free ingress within the lines, and the camp kitchen and
other domestic arrangements were examined with curi-
ous scrutiny.
The South-Western Railway was on this occasion se-
lected by her Majesty and the royal party as the shortest
and most convenient route to reach the camp. The
Duchess of Catnbridge, with the Queen of Hanover and
the Princess Mary, were the first to leave town. They
travelled from the Nine-Elms station, taking their de-
past 8. Her Royal Highness the Duchess
parture at half
of Kent, with the Princess Adelaide of Hohenlohe, left
by the same' train. Their Royal Highnesses the Here-
dity Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Mecklenberg-
Strelitz, and the Duchess of Saxe Coburg, left London
at the same time.
Her Majesty and the Prince Consort arrived at Nine
Elms at a quarter to ten o'clock, and were there met by
the Kind of Hanover, the affectionate sympathy of the
Queen with her royal relative under his affliction having
induced a request that his Majesty would accompany
her. The Duke of Saxe Coburg Gotha arrived at the
station at the same time, and travelled to Staines with
his illustrious relatives.
We must now return to Chobham Common, where the

The interest of 'expectation was now added to the
beauty of the scene. The point of interest to which all
eyes were directed was Magnet-hill, ono which were as-
sembled his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge,
Viscount Hardinge, Lord Seaton, and all the other
officers composing the staff. In close proximity to this
body were assembled the most distinguished persons in
the country--some in carriages, many on horseback--
among whom were a great number of female equestrians.
It is quite impossible to give anything approaching a
correct list of the fashionables present, but among many
others may be enumerated the Countess of Wilton and
the Ladies Grey Egerton, the Marchioness of Ailesbury,
the Earl and Countess of Strathmore, the Earl Cawdor,
Lord Carington, Lord Dalmeny and Lady Louisa Prim-
rose, the Countess of Bradford and the Ladies Bridgman,
Captain the Hon. C. Hardinge,• M.P., Lord Charles
Manners, M.P., the Earl Howe, the Earl 'of Cardigan,
the Earl and Countess of Glengallf ,Mr. Ellice, g.P.,
Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Wood, Col.
Baldock, M.P., the Baroness North and Col. North,
M.P., and Miss Doyle, Viscount Villiers, the Hon.
Mr. A. Villiers, Col. Malcolm, Col. Rose, Col. Brown-
low Knox, M.P., the Earl of Euston, Lord George
Paget, M.P., Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, Viscount
Newport, Mr. Robarts, Captain _Buckley, Lord Paget,
General the Hon. G. Anson, M.P., the Earl Bruce, Mr.
George Payne, Col. the Hon. A. Hood, his Excellency
the Sardinian Minister, &c. A very picturesque effect
was given to this assemblag4 by the pretence of so many
ladies on horseback, conspicuous among whom was the
beautiful Countess of Strathmore. •
An additional feature of interest was giVen to the
group by the presence of a large party of Etonians—the
junior branches of the aristocracy—for whom Lord
Seaton, himself an Etonian, had, with a kindly reminis-
cence of his, own boyhood, secured a holiday from the
principal, Dr. Hawtrey, who headed in person the young
brigade. t
_ _ _

shortly before 11 o'clock, Viscount Hardinge, at-
tended by his aides-de-camp, and accompanied by the
Adjutant-General, the Quartermaster-General, the
Deputy Adjutant-General, the Deputy Quartermaster-
General, and the Military Secretary to the Commander.
in-Chief, left the head-quarters (Magnet-hill) and pro-
ceeded across the heath in the direction of Colonel
Challoner's park, through which it , bad beeen arranged
the Queen should enter the, encampment, in order to be
in readiness. to receive her Majesty:
The Duchess of Cambridge and the Queen of Hanover
left the railway at Staines, when one of the Queen's
pony phmtons, drawn by four greys, was in waiting to
convey the royal party to the Common. The Duchess
of Kent and party followed shortly afterwards, and both
proceeded from the ordinary Staines-road across the
Common, and through the lines of the Guards to Mag-
net-hill. As the royal party passed the line to their
position, the troops saluted, and the bands played a few
bars of the National Anthem.
At a few minutes after 11 o'clock, the scarlet liveries
of the royal outriders were seen emerging from the dark
plantations skirting Colonel Challoner's estate. Amidst
the busy hum of expectation, the royal standard was
hoisted on Magnet-hill.
The Queen could be now seen, with a glass, alighting
from her carriage; and, to the surprise.'of most of the
spectators, and to the delight of all, a caparisoned

camp:
The prucession was headed by
,a detachment of the
first tifetG4ards, preceded by an officer of the Quarter-
master-Gclairers department. Next came the aides-de-
camp to the Generalcommanding-hi-Chief—the, Earl of.
March and. Lord Charles Wellesley. These were fol-
lowed by the royal aides-de-camp ; the Deputy Adju-
tant-General, Colonel Torrens • the Deputy Quarter-
master-General, Colonel B. Wood, C.B. ; and the
Equerries to the Sovereign not in Waiting. The Adl3.-
tant-General and the Military Secretary to the Com-
mander-hi-chief, with the Quartermaster-General, fol-
lowed ; and then came Viscount Hardinge, General
Commanding-in-Chief, mounted upon a splendid chesnut
charger.
Her Majesty was attended by the Countess of Desart,
Lady in Waiting, also on horseback, and by the Duke
of Wellington, Master of the Horse.
The Duke f Saxe Coburg, and the Hereditary Grand
Duke of Mecklenberg-Strelitz, conspicuous by their
white uniforms and silver helmets, followed immediately,
and the procession was closed with a brilliant array of
foreign general officers, British general officers on the
staff, and with a crowd of aides-de-camp of every kind,
and majors of brigade.
A string of royal carriages, and a detachment of the
4th Light Dragoons, which had form
-¢d the escort from
Staines, closed the cavalcade, whose approach was

watched with the most lively interest. As the Queen
drew near the camp, each battalion fired three rounds
from the right of brigades, and the guns of the artillery
vomited forth a sight loyal and very noisy welcome of
the royal presence.
This was not without its effect, for the horses attached
to the carriage in which were the Queen of Hanover and
the Duchess of Kent, alarmed by the " piff-paff " of the
musketry, became restive, and broke some portion of
their harness. As a precautionary measure, the horses
were taken out, much to the apparent vexation of the
Duke of Cambridge, whose duty to his Sovereign re-
quired him to remove a carriage which, without horses,
would have proved an impediment to the royal progress.
The Queen of Hanover was much alarmed, and stepped
out of the carriage for a few moments until it was placed
in a safer position.
The newly-made road by which the Queen crossed the
Common was lined on either side with a great number
of spectators, by whom her Majesty was received with
loyal demonstrations. On approaching the line of the
Guards the troops saluted, the band playing "God save
the Queen." As her Majesty ascended the Magnet-hill,
and became plainly visible to the general body of specta-
tors, their surprise and gratification at seeing their sove-
reign on horseback broke forth in murmurs of applause,
which speedily rose to loud cheers.
It was generally remarked that the equestrian cos-
tume was exceedingly becoming to the Queen, who looked
as young and more beautiful than we ever remember to
have seen her, Indeed, every one said it would be dif-
ficult to imagine that a lady of a figure so elegant and
of so youthful a face could be the mother of eight chil-
dren. Her Majesty rode a dark bay charger, richly
caparisoned in blue and gold. Her riding habit was of
dark blue cloth, with a Basque jacket sitting tightly to
the figure. The hat worn by her Majesty was remark-
ably elegant. It was of black felt of the prevailing shape,
with an arrangement of white and red feathers, flowing
along the brim, that gave a very tasteful and character-
istic effect.
The King of Hanover redo a white charger. His
Majesty wore the costume of the Hanoverian Guards,
with a tall bearskin cap, the peak of which was so con-
trived as to shade the King's eyes, and partialiy conceal
the defect of vision under which he laboured. Much
sympathy was excited at seeing the youthful Sovereign
ride erect and fearless, with true military seat and firm-
ness, across the field, his horse gently guided by the
friendly hand of Baron Reichtenstein, who rode close by
his royal master's side. The affectionate sympathy
evinced by her Majesty towards her royal cousin, her
kind manner and frequent address to him, throughout
the day, occasioned a very pleasing interest among the
spectators.
The Prince Consort rode a fine bay charger, and wore
a field-marshal's uniform.
A. lady-in-waiting, on horseback, in attendance upon
the Sovereign reviewing her troops, is a novelty ; but a
greater rarity are such beauty and grace as were com-
bined in the Countess of Desart. She sat the "bonnie
gray," on which she rode, admirably, and altogether ac-
quitted herself in a manner befitting the companion of
her royal mistress on such an occasion.
On arriving at the top of the hill, her Majesty and the
royal party were received by Lord Seaton, as commander
of the camp, and by his Royal Highness the Duke of
Cambridge, who led the way along the line of cavalry—
the band of each regiment, as her Majesty passed, taking
up the National Anthem. On reaching the end of the
cavalry lines, the large party of horsemen and ladies who
had followed the royal cavalcade, opened their ranks,
and falling back formed a lane through which the Queen
retraced her steps in front of the cavalry, and thence,
by the brigade of Guards, passed along the front of the
foot regiments and the artillery.
As her Majesty moved along the front of the lines,
each corps marched off towards the road in rear of the
camp, and proceeded to the high land overlooking the
review ground where the brigades formed in continuous
columns. The artillery formed on the left of the infan-
try in columns of half batteries. The cave]) y marched
directly from the camp towards the review ground, which
they skirted in long line—a very picturesque feature of
the day being their appearance at intervals through the
trees which skirted the Common in the direction of the
village of Chobham.
The Queen and the royal party having completed Unir
inspection of the troops, proceeded towards the marquee
that had been erected for their accommodation, to view
the military spectacle. The ground selected for the
occasion had been admirably chosen. On the right of
the royal tent was a ridge gently sloping towards a broad
valley, or rather flat, made by the long untended con-
dition of what was once known as the " Gracious Pond"
—a well-cared for receptacle for carp, made in bygone
centuries by a rich abbot of Chertsey, whose garden
smiled in this now uncultivated spot. On the left rose
