all was hustle and confusion, it being the day
set apart for the parade and review of the
college Cadets. AT 9 clock, precisely, they
formed ranks, and after going through the
various military evOlutions in the College
grounds, which they did in manner highly
creditfble to themselves and to their off GERS,
they paraded through the principal streets of
our town, preceded by Wither's celebrated
brass band, who looked remarkably well in
their new uniform. The selections of music and
their execution has been surpassed by none
The smiles Of the many lovely faces of
the fair sex, who filled the windows and doors
of the houses, saluting them by waving their
handtseIchiefs, will ever be remembered by
the gallant cadets They proceeded to the
villa belonging to the College where they
arrived about noon efter taking short res,
they were again called to order, when they
were reviewed by the president of the assoca;
ton. After Stacking their arms they march
ed into the spacious dining room, where they
sat down to most sumptuouS dinner prepared
for them, when they commenced an earnest
attack upon the good things before them.
Speeches were made by Capt Kenpey, and by
Lieuts De la Guerra, Buard, Lancaster, and
Ward, also neat and pertinent address was
made by c. j. O'Flynn.' Esq, Of Michigan,
who then proposed as the next sentim ont,
Z" The health Of our next President and Vice
President, James Buchanan Of PENNSYLVANIA,
and John C Breckenridge of Kentucky,''
Hhich was heartily received by all. Under
the command of such oficers they cannot fail
20 prosper. At Al O'Clock they took up the
line of march for home, where they arrived at
seasonable hour highly delighted with the
pleasures Of the day The whole was really
a grand affair e.
