THE NAVAL REVIEW.

A meeting of officers belonging to the Royal
Naval Reserve was held at their club room, Mark-
lane, yesterday afternoon, to consider the steps
which should be taken to have that force repre-
sented at the grand naval review which is to take
place during the visit of the Sultan to this country.
A strong wish has been expressed by a number of
officers and men of the Naval Reserve living at
many of the ports that arrangements should be
made for them to. take part in the interesting pro-
ceedings. Captain Brown read several letters he
had received from officers to this effect. The writers
all agreed that it was most important the force
should be represented, that they believed such a
recognition of their services would considerably
strengthen their position, and that, if the Govern-
ment would permit them to be present, there would
be no difficulty in getting a thousand men with a
sufficient number of officers. The question for con-
sideration was the expense. It was suggested that
if the:Admiralty would accept their offer the men
might easily be brought to the fleet either by some
of the tenders or by a Government steamer calling
for them at the different ports. As the men would
have to be paid for their time, it was thought that
the authorities might regard the service thus given
as so much of the ordinary drill which they have to
undergo, and therefore that there would be but
very little extra cost to the public. The officers
present said that they should prefer not to receive
any pay, but of course the men could not afford to
do so. There was a unanimous opinion that if the
Admiralty would accede to the request it would
give great satisfaction to all the members of the
force. It was decided that Captain Brown should
request the First Lord of the Admiralty to receive
a deputatimi from the officers, and that Mr. Greaves,
M.P. for Liverpool, Mr. Ayr ton, M.P., and other
members of Parliament should be asked to attend
and support them. One or two of the officers in-
quired how it would be possible to provide the men
with a uniform, but the majority thought that this
could be easily managed. It was stated that there
might be more than a thousand men. The way in
which they were to be employed in the review was
to be left to the executive. There is a very fine
body of the Naval Reserve in the Scotch ports, but
it appeared to be uncertain whether they were too
distant to attend.

SUDDEN DEATH OF A BAP,ONET. —Yesterday

House, county Leitrim, was found dead in his bed at his
house in Leamington. He was born 1788, and succeeded
his father, the second baronet, in 1834. Ho was formerly
a lieutenant in the Royal Navy. His son Denis, born in
1819, becomes the fourth baronet.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.—
Great Relief.—All gouty and rheumatic affections, weak-
ness, and wasting of the limbs, stiff joints, and contracted
sinews can be treated with the certainty of success by the
diligent friction of this excellent ointment upon the afflicted
part, after it has been patiently fomented with brine.
Holloway's Pills should be taken by the sufferer, who
fairly tries this treatment, because they purify the blood,
invigorate the stomach, regulate the liver, stimulate the
kidney's, and act as a mild aperient on the bowels and tonics
on the nerves. In skin diseases and glandular complaints
Holloway's remedies are recommended on account of theh
gentle, yet effective, action, when a long train of scrofulous
evils surround the victim.
