VICTORIA AT ALDERSHOTT.

On the 22d uls., ber Majesty fairly opened
the military season ct Aldershott with
parade inspection OF all the troops in camp.
The occasion was marked with the usual cir
cumstsnces which seem always to accompany
these displays, viz: magnificent weather, In
tense heat clouds Of dust, and crowds Of dis
appointed sightseers. Precisely ct eleven o.
clock her Majesty came upon the field. As
the royal party came in view, oil the troops
stood at attention." and when ber Majesty
bad approached sufficiently near. the arms
of the whole mass were presented asthe sa-
lutte, and the colors lowered With one Sim
ultaneous movement, that Vas most imposing.
Her majesty, who was moupted on dark
obesnus charger, and wore scarlet Jscket
and a generals plume OF red and white
feathers in her riding hat, then proceeded to
inspect the force, riding slowly the whole eI'
tended front. On her right end left rode
General Kuollys and the Prince Consort, and
brilliant staff of officers, including the
Quarter Master and Adjutant General, follow
ed her Majesty and the open pony carriage,
in which was the little Prince Arthur, In
Highland costume. As soon ss the royal
party had .raversed the entire line-which
occu pied them more than half an bour-ber
Majesty returned to the side Of the valley
and witnessed the marching past Of the
whole force. Among the militia the march
ing of the Limerick and Kerry Regiments,
with those of the West York and South
Downs was most praised.
