We had a Divisional Field Day yesterday. Recollecting a previous experience, the G.O.C. sent for his three Brigadiers, when the division was assembled for action, and, it seems, said to them, "There must be less noise." The Brigadiers, returning to the field, called out each his four battalion-commanders and said to them, distinctly, "There must be less noise." The twelve battalion-commanders called out each his eight company-commanders, who called out each his four section-commanders, and in every instance was repeated, quite audibly, the same utterance, "There must be less noise." Three hundred and eighty-four section-commanders were engaged in impressing this order, with all the emphasis it deserved, upon the men, when the General rode on to the field. His anger was extreme. "THERE MUST BE LESS NOISE!" said he. Yours ever, Henry. * * * * * "The Press also avoids very carefully all discussion of the status of the Goeben and the Breslau. Practically the only reference to the subject is a remark in the _Frankfurter Zeitung_ that Turkey has alone to decide what ships are to fly under her flag."--_Times._ If Turkey decides that the _Goeben_ is to fly, we hope she will warn the man who works the searchlights at Charing Cross. * * * * * Illustration: A GLORIOUS EXAMPLE.

By TOBY, M.P. "LORD CHARLES has broken his chest-bone--a piece of which was cut out in his boyhood leaving a cavity--his pelvis, right leg, right hand, foot, five ribs, one collar-bone three times, the other once, his nose three times." Thus Mr. COPE CORNFORD in one of the notes with which he illuminates the _Memoirs of Admiral Lord Charles Beresford_, published by Messrs. METHUEN in two volumes, illustrated with a score of plates, the portrait of Lady CHARLES adding the charm of rare beauty to the collection.
