The left Of the line rested at Fort NeRley:
the right extended beyond the Ackland
Place. It was piece of poetioal justice
that this last public demonstration and .ju.
bilee of these veteran soldiers should take
place upon the very ground where they
stood when they first entered upon that
struggle which ended in their crowning
triumph. Montgomery Hill, the salient
point in the rebel position in front Of Nash
upon the first day of the battle, was plain
II seen from the ground over which the
Corps to-day marched in review.
THE TROOPS FILE PAST .THoMAs.
It was q magnificent spectacle when
those historic legions, stood, rank behind
rank, and split the air with cheers, as the
great, victorious chieftain, Thomas, passed

umns of companies, each division and
