About 200 men, under the command of Lieut. Colonel Hamilton, took art, and their movements were watched with
great interest by a fairly large number of people. All the offers and men wore roses on their Istmets and tanios, and the drums of the hand

It is well for the regiment to recall in times of peaco how the gallant 51st with the rose of Old England in their head-dreas marched stodily forward without flinching at Minden, though the hail of cannon shot left one in every three men dead or wounded behind. How in four successive charges the enemy's cavalry hurled themselves against the rampart of layonets, and were scattered as the wave of the sa dushing against a mass of rock, though the troops were armed only with a matchlook, which was not effective much beyond one hundred yards.

Mr. Frank Bostock, of the Jungle at the White City, has had a wager of £100 with Mr. nestion with a laughing competition between the Velenche, of the London Hippodrome, in con- former's hymns and the latter's jackass. The contest was held at the Jungl last month and the points to be desided on wore the length of the laugh and the quality of the voice. The BEST contest was held in three sections. On the londness of the laugh the jackass won, but on the score of length the hymns was the winner. The latter langhod for a solid five minutes, whils the juckass was only able to keep it up for 23 minutes. The contest was ultimately won by the
