The most interesllng featuae of the review was a cavalry charge deliv- ered by the Guard Hussars, under Prince William, agaiust the three battalions of the First oot Guards. This splendid regiment is now armed, like most of the armg' with the new repeating rifle, and the blank cartridge yolleys which it poured into Prince William's attacking squadrons to-day were something quite terrific. No body of cuvull_{. not to speak of infantry, can possibly live within the close range of such an incessant and cousuming repeating rifle fire. That was &he moral of to-day's sham fight at Pots- am.
