The 4th Wisconsin Regiment reached here
ct twenty minutes past two O'Clock, having
made the run from Toledo in four and half
hours. They came in two trains occupying
thirty-three passenger and baggage teams,
the right Of the regiment being in the first
train.
AT the foot Of Vineyard street the cars
halted, and the companies came out and
formed with the right resting on the hill
They got into column in excellent order and
very quickly. A Acommiltee consisting of the
commissioned officers from the various city
companies acted as an escort, and led
the way through Superior street to the Park.
There, the regiment was formed about the
North squares, and marched by companies
so as to obtain the full benefit of the shade.
Squads Of the city military, armed with
baskets of provisions, were despatched to
feed the hungry and to minister to those
who were athirst from buckets of coffee and
ice water. Some fears had been expressed
lest the quantity of edibles should fall short
of theneed, but SO far as we could ascertain,
there was enough and to spare.
After the refreshments had been disposed
Of, the men broke ranks and wandered
about ct viii, many Of them visiting the
shops for the purpose of procuring needful
articles. e
The officers of the Regiment were taken
10 Shrink's Ice Cream Saloon and provided
with substantial repast, to which they did
full justice. The tables were beautifully
arranged and wero the subject of much
favorable comment. Afer dining, the fol-
lowing resolution was offered by Capt. Ho-
bart, Of Go. K: y
ResOlUed, That the thanks of the officers
and the several companies of the Fourth
Wisconsin Regiment, be and are hereby
rendered 20 the citizens Of Cleveland, for
the bOuntiful refreshments which they have
90 kindly provided for us.
The resolution was carried by an over
whelming majority, in which everybody
with brass buttons bore distinguished part.
About s o'clock the horses of the officers
were brought up, and the regiment COM
menced 70 form in column, preparatory to
marching 10 the cars. Precisely at the ap-
pointed moment, quarter before six, the
word was given, thedrums beat and our SOL
dier friends were on their way, all we'll sat-
