THE NAVAL REVIEW.

His Imperial Majesty the Sultan will arrive by
special Royal train on the South-Western Com-
pany's main line, at the Royal Clarence-yard, Gos-
port, from London on the morning of the Naval
Review, and willbe received with full Royal honours •
His Majesty, on alighting from the train, will em-
bark on board the Royal paddle yacht Osborne, and
proceed through the fleet at Spithead, and after-
wards join her M:tjesty the Queen on board the
Royal paddle yacht Victoria and Albert, Captain
his Serene Highness the Prince Leiningen. The
Viceroy of Egypt is expected to arrive at Ports-
mouth
about the same time as the Sultan, but the
arrangements for the reception of his Highness are
not yet quite completed.
The fleet will weigh from Spithead this morning
about 10 o'clock and steam out at a certain distance
south-east of the anchorage, and on returning to the
anchorage will anchor in their proper positions in
two lines, in which formation they will receive the
Queen and her august visitors on Review-day.
The fleet was joined yesterday morning by Roar--
Admiral Warden's squadron of ironclads from Port-
land, comprising the Minotaur (flagship), Achilles,
Lord Clyde, and Bellerophon. The turret ship
Royal Sovereign, Captain C. P. Coles, C. 8., joined
the fleet from Portsmouth habour yesterday morn-
ing, and had a large party on board of the wives,
families, and friends of the officers and ship's com-
pany. This very wholesome indulgence on a ship
first leaving harbour after commission was, we be-
lieve, first allowed on board the present flagship of
the Channel Squadron on her leaving Portsmouth
harbour for Spithead a few mouths back. The un-
armoured screw frigate Mersey, Captain H. S.
Hillyar, C. 8., also went out of Portsmouth harbour
yesterday, and joined the fleet at Spithead. The
only vessels that had not joined the fleet up to sun-
set yesterday that were named by the Admiralty to
take part in the Review are the two screw frigates
Liverpool and Phoebe, detached to escort the Sultan
across the Channel ; the Princess Royal, screw
liner, and the Scylla, screw corvette, both on their
way home from China, and the iron-clad sloop
Research.

Admiral Sir Thos. Sabine Pasley yesterday morn-

ing hoisted his flag at the main of the screw three-
decker Victoria, as Commander-in-Chief of the
Fleet. Rear Admiral F. Warden, C. 8., as second
in command, retains his flag on board the iron screw
frigate Minotaur.
A telegram received at Portsmouth yesterday frog'
the Admiralty conveyed orders for the Royal screw
yacht Fairy to be placed in dock and made ready for
service at the Review. In less than two hours after
the receipt of the orders the beautiful little craft was
in dock, and a number of bands busily employed
upon her.
The supposed mishap to the machinery of the
Valiant in leaving Portsmouth harbour for Spithead
on Monday has turned out to have been no mishap
after all. On the frigate nearing the Spit buoy
from the harbour channel the engines were stopped
by order, and the crew sent aloft to make sail, just
by way of showing the fleet what could be done
with a hurriedly and temporarily manned ship.
