7HE VOLUN7EER EASTER REVIEIV.

The local preparations for the review of the
Volunteers at Portsmouth on Easter Monday ap-
pear to be progressing very favourably. Upwards
of £l,OOO has been already subscribed to the general
fund for meeting the usual incidental expenses, but
undoubtedly more than twice that sum will be re-

quired to meet all the exigencies of the case. There
will possibly be a much larger number of Volun-
teers present on the slopes of Portsdown than was

seen either on Brighton or on Dover Downs, and
the greater the numbers of the Volunteer army,
necessarily the greater will be the strain upon the
capabilities of the place where the review may take

place. Five hundred horses are already required for
the artillery that will be present, and nearly as many
more as officers' chargers. A local committee has
waited upon the authorities at the War-office and the
Admiralty to discuss points of detail connected with
the review, and have been met in the most cordial man-
ner. Lord Longford has granted the issue from the
Government stores of marquees, tents, camp bed-
steads, and other stores, for the use of such of the
Volunteers who may determine to encamp during
their stay at Portsmouth, and two of the monster
forts on Portsdown-hill—Widly and Southwick—

will be thrown open to the public on the morning
of the review. From the summit of the barracks in
the gorge of each of these works every movement
of the attacking and defending armies, from the
investment of the Hilsea position to the final defeat
of the besieging army on the heights of Portsdown,
will be distinctly visible to as many hundreds of
thousands of spectators as may choose to be pre-
sent. The Admiralty authorities have expressed
their anxiety to render all the assistance in their
power, and to give a naval character to some por-
tion of the proceedings. A light squadron of gun-
boats and steam launches will take up a position
in the narrow lakes between the grand old
Norman ruins of Porchester Castle (the
Portus Magnus of the Romans) and the west
of the Hilsea lines, and, with a brigade of
seamen and marines, landed on the low shore in
front, will attack the enemy's right and cover the
sortie that will be made by the garrison. The iron-
clad squadron will not be at Spithead at the time of
the review, owing to its attendance upon his Royal
Highness the Prince of Wales on his visit to Ire-

land, but a very respectable squadron of vessels may
be collected without trouble from other resources at
Portsmouth and from the adjacent ports to do
honour to the occasion if necessary. Several of the
Volunteer corps headquarters will arrive at Ports-
mouth two or three days before the review. On
Sunday there will be a grand church parade on
Southsea-common, and the Hon. Artillery Company
will attend Divine service at the ancient church
of St. Thomas, in the High-street, Portsmouth.
The first great feature of the review day will be
the " march past" on Southsea-common. This
will all be managed easily enough, but the ques-
tion then remains,—how will the vast body of
spectators who are certain to be present manage
to transport themselves to Portsdown to witness the
review ? The restricted railway communication
existing between Southsea-common and Cosham
will be altogether inadequate for such a purpose,
and there only remains, therefore, the South-
Western Company's Railway from the Landport
station at Portsmouth to its first station at Cosham,
at the foot of Portsdown. If the railway company
can convey the public, in addition to a part of the
troops, over this four miles extent of rail from the
" march past" to the scene of the intended opera-

tious, both the march past and the battle may be
witnessed by one person, but if the railway people
cannot do this, it would certainly appear that visi-
tors to Portsmouth on Easter Monday will have to
elect whether they wiil be present at the ceremonial
pageant of the march past or at the subsequent
manoeuvres under Portsdown. General Lindsay,
Inspector-General of Volunteers, is expected to
visit Portsmouth during the present week, and com-
plete the necessary preliminary arrangements.

OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE BOAT RACE.

As the two eights aro expected at Putney to-day, we
may be able soon to report of their respective appearances
upon the Thames water. Meanwhile Putney, and the in-
habitants thereof, are quite eager to receive their very
welcome visitors. The gentlemen from Oxford will stay,
as usual, at the White Lion ; those from Cambridge will
take up their old quarters, under the new management, at
the Star and Garter, where Mr. Warner, the coxswain,
arrived on Saturday last.

The following are about the present weights :

SERGEANT CJIOWN.—It will be recollected that
this intelligent police sergeant of the E division of police
had been very active in assisting in the arrest of various
persons charged with Fenianism, and who, while in com-
pany with Constable Chamberlain, was shot at by Clancy
in Bedford-square a short time ago, is, we regret to state,
become a hopeless lunatic. He has attempted to throw
himself out of window, and exhibited such dangerous
tendencies that ho is now obliged to be kept
under restraint. Sergeant Chown, on the conclusion of
the trial of Clancy, at the Old Bailey, was.highly compli-
mented by Mr. Justice Bramwell, and ordered a special
reward for his courage, and Sir T.Henry also took occasion to
speak in high terms of the conduct of Chown. The wife
and two children of such an useful public servant are
worthy the consideration of the benevolent.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] Holloway's Pills. Merit Re-
warded.—This famous family medicine has stood the test
of time and the most unrelenting opposition. Those pills
are a direct purifier of the blood and all the other fluids of
the human body. During the winter and early spring no
house or home should be without the means of arresting
disease at its onset; such means are safely and surely pre-
sented in these excellent pills when they are taken accord-
ing to their accompanying directions. Holloway's Medi-
CIIIO removes dyspepsia, promotes digestion, and acts as a
mild and effective aperient. These pills are strongly re-
commended to those persons who aro constitutionally weak
and whose nervous systems have been shattered by ill-
nesses; on such they will confer an inestimable blessing.
