to his assistant maTshsls, aids and officers gen

ner in which they performed their respective
duties. Without the care and precision exhibit

marshal atser reaching Despfaioes street, to
change the order Of the programme Issued for

The Chief darshal. for himself, and in behalf
Of his ASSISTANTS, regrets tho circumstances
which compelled them to relnquish their *
peetation Of marching On Michigan avenue. and
connter.msrching on Randolph street, AZ in the
programme pub1ished by the Executive Com
mitt2a. Tho counter-march on Randolph street
could not be performed. tho procession being too
long aud as this was designed for the benefit Of
