square feet of ground, had been erec-

were laid, which were all occupied. A
spacious gallery contained an excellent
band of music; and the following ~tcasts,
interpreted with songs, and martial
airs, were announcedby Mr.. F. c. Whis-

applause. The scene defies description;
and as much order prevailed as was
compatible with the festivity of the oc-
