The naval procession will le_ave the Drill Shed at 6.30 to-morrow evening, proceed down Queen-street, up Customs-street West, Albert-street, Wyndham-street; to Hobson-street, up the latter street to Karangahape Road, thence to Symondastreet, down that street; Princes-street, and Shortland - street to Queen - street, and thence to the Drill Shed, where a repast will be ready. If the weather permits^ ot the procession we anticipate of a pleasing contrast to the eye, ?iz., the men in white jumpers, Avith their- torches, and occasionally displays of red fire in the line of march, being a good contrast with the majority of the crowd in dark clothing,
