Whitehall, up Whitebait to Charing-mss, by Co'ckspur-
street, along Pall-mall, and enter the Park by the gates
between Marlborough House and St. James's Palace,
and thence by original route to Buckingham Palace and

FURTHER ARRANGEMENTS-BRIGADE ORDERS

Some particulars from official orders have already been
published, and the following Brigade Orders have since
been issued as final :

"Horse Guards, July 8.
" Her Majesty having signified her gracious intention
of reviewing the brigade of Foot Guards in Hyde Park
on Wednesday next, the Field-Marshal Commanding in
Chief desires that the four battalions, including the 2d
battalion of Grenadier Guards, from Windsor, may be
formed by a quarter before 12 o'clock on that day. The
brigade wilt be formed in line of quarter distance columns,
at 95 paces interval, facing Park-lane, the rest of the
line resting upon the central clump of trees.
" The band of the brigade will be at the Nine Elms
Station of the South-Western Railway at half-past 10
o'clock on Wedne-day next, to receive the troops, who
will at once proceed to Hyde Park by the route already
marked out. On the ground officers appear in Guards'
review order dress, with silk sashes, &e.
" Upon the Queen entering the ground the Field-
Marshal Commanding in Chief will present a return,
&c., of the troops present, to her Majesty, in accordance
with the Army Regulations."

FINAL DISPOSITION OF THE GUARDS AFTER
THE OVATION TO-MORROW.

The Guards will be disposed thus, as officially de-

cid,d

The Ist battalion of the Grenadier Guards, now at the
Wellington Barracks, proceed to Aldersbott. The 2a
battalion of the Grenadier Guards, now at Windsor,
leave for Dublin, there to be stationed ; and the 3d bat-
talion of the same carpi just returned from the Crimea
will move to the Wellington Barracks.
The Ist battalion of the Coldstream Guards returned
from the Crimea will proceed to the Tower of Lon-lon
and the 21 battalion of the same corps leave the Tower
for Windsor.

The Ist battalion of the Scots Fusiliers from the
Crimea will occupy St. Ge' Barracks and the 2d
battalion, from St. George's Barracks, will proceed to
Aldersbott.

Within the last few days the Snots Fusilier band has
had the addition of a companion in the shape of a beau-
tiful white goat. Our readers may have seen already in
the streets a dark one, highly accoutred, that accompa-
nies the Grenadier Guards. The Scots Fusiliers Lave
still in barracks the splendid stag which, having been in
early life raved from the stalker and beagle, has now
"r.-tired" from active servico, owing to age, but be still
eni,ys the kindne:s of his gallant corps. By some acci-
dent a short time since he was deprived of one of his
horns.

ROYAL VISIT TO ALIThIcSIiOT CAMP.

ACCIDENT TO VISCOUNT HARDINGE.

The royal party, on their arrival at the Royal Pavilion,
Aldei shot Camp, yesterday afternoon, by the Duke of
Cambridge, Li.r.l Hardinge, Lord Panmure, and the
generals of the different brigades and regiments.
Sh rtly atter reaching the Pavilion, and whilst her
Majesty was in conversation with the gallant veteran in
the state room, an acciiient, of a somewhat singular na•
ture, occurred to Viscount Hardin:4e. The noble hard
was seated on a couch, resting hie a-m on a table run-
ning on castors, and a., he was about to rise, be leaue.i
rather heavily on the table, which caused it to slip from
under him, and losing his balance, he fell, injuring his
foot. His lordship was raised from the ground an re-
moved to headquarters, suffering much pain, and upon
a surgeon arriving from the hoipital department, it was
found that the ankle was so swollen and inflamed that it
was difficult to say whether the foot was sprained or
fractured. At the request of the noble commander, he
was removed in an easy carriage tr 3 Farnborough, f►o'm
whence he was conveyed by a special train to town, and
thence to his residence. Her Majesty expressed gre it.
anxiety at the occurrence, and repeatedly sent Colonel
Biddulph to make inquiries as to the noble viscount's
progress.
The weather proving very unfavourable, it was sug-
gested to ber Majesty that it would be better to post-
pone the review. The Queen said a little rain would
not harm her ; and it was only on being notified that
the men might suffer by being paraded during the rain
that her Majesty acceded to the suggestion. It was
definitely arranged that the troops should be mustered
so soon as the rain ceased. Orders were given for every
man to be in readiness ; and so complete were the ar-
rangements that it was stated that the men, numbering
16,000, could be cut in line in less than ten minutes after
the word of command was given. The rain, however,
did not cease for a single moment.
' During the fore part of the day the let battalion of
the Rifle Brigade, 1,000 strong, under command of Lord
A. G. Russell, marched into camp, beaded by their fine
band. Of the original battalion who left for the Crimea,
only 250 have returned to their native country. Her
Majesty expressed a desire to welcome them, and the
whole of the men were ordered under arms, and re-
mained for some time in the rain ready to march. at a
moment's notice, but the weather prevented an inapec-

two.
Her Majesty was to remain at the Pavilion until to-
day, intending to proceed with the review, when the
weather allowed ; but when our report left there seemed
but little prospect of a favourable change.
To-morrow the Guards leave the camp, and the Rifles
and Highlanders will do the same in the course of the
week.
