A GALLERY OF CONTRASTS.
We have here four subjects differing from one another. The first represents the charming quarters which the officers of our little garrison in Cyprus have established for themselves; the building is the Officers' Mess. No. 2 is a group of the sturdy, excellent Houssa soldiers who have done such good service on the West Coast of Africa. No. 3 represents the militia artillery of Bermuda drilling in the ditch of that important fortress. No. 4 is a quaint picture of King Koko with his warriors on the Brass River. That the king and his forces are at the disposal of the British Sovereign is evident from the flag borne by the flotilla. It is to be hoped that this splendid force may prove as valuable in war as it is undoubtedly imposing in peace.
