Volume 62 — Portsmouth or Brighton.

Shall the Easter Monday Volunteer Review be holden at Brighton or Portsmouth?

Brighton has downs adapted for the field of military manœuvres, but so has Portsmouth; and as to either place, whether you regard the neighbourhood or the inhabitants, it is hard to say which is the more downy.
