spectacle. T9.-
The mounted volunteers formed on 6reenmount
avenue to the number Of about 601, and moved
through Cav to Baltimore, and up Baltimore to
Hanover, where position was taken. Baltimore
street at this junction presented living barricade
of people Of both sexes, from South 10 Fremont
streets, embracing space over mile In length.
AT % minutes to O'Clock the waving of a flaming
torch at the head started the mounted eavalcade,
and up Baltimore street rode the CO.. mounted
National Volunteers. The members were attired
In uniform similar to the foot volunteen-light
colored capes and red caps Many Of them carried
the torches: and managed to keep mp good fire
along the line.
The horse eavalcade moved forward rapidly,
and the Tremendous gathering Of horses hoofs
along the street almost deafenng. The
horsemen were ten minutes in passing to a Do
sition west, when another wave Of the torch at
hanover kuetb loren division out OF

by the divisions in Calvert, Light and Charles
street, each drfling Through Lombard and South

of their instruments rang along the lurid line
Next came gorgeous chariot, representing the
Temple Of Liberty, guarded by boys dressed SIS
sailors, who were overwhelmed with Chinese
lamps, flags, and wreaths, which were pientifully
distrib uted, hurled inf5the ranks of the process
sion from the sidewal ks along the route Another

DIR. l.. J. CZAPKAY.-The number of those
who have sacrificed the joys and pleasures of So
iety to crafty transitory desire for excitement
has never been estimated. If they had been the
labors of those who had ventured, in spite of
calumny and detracton. to conlne themselves to
that field of Medical research embraced under the
head of chronic diseases would be much better
appreciated than they have hitherto been by the
world at large. The efforts of Ricord, Sanger
and Czapkay-the most ilustrious exponents
of that branch of science-are, however, dispel-
ing the msts of prejudice which rendered the
treatment of private diseases forbidden subject
TO the general public, and those famous pract-
TONERS now stand forth IN ihe light of benctactors
of their race. In this State. the success of Dr..
L. j. Cznpkay has been so marked that envy and
detraction have done their best to interfere with
his prospects, but his skill as physician had l.
ready been SO well established that he was be-
yond the reach of his enemies shafts. Gradua-
ting at the University of Pesth with the highest
honors he served upon the Medical Staff of the
Hungarian Army, under Kossuth, and. coming
afterwards to America. entered at once upon the
practice of his profession. He obtained from the
Medical College of Philadelphia, a Diploma and
the honarary title of A. E., and at present enjoys
through his skill, the esteem and confidence
thousands of the leading citizens of California
