The "Boys in Blue were accompanied bv
the Wilmington Comct Band, and were out

over several of our principal streets, and

of cars for New Castle. On reaching that
place they were met by large delegation
on horseback, when the procession reformed

well-reoeved aud elected frequent outbursts
of applause.
The meeting adjourned at seasonable
hour with cheers for Riddle, McKim and the
Union, when the Boys in Bluen and the
Union clubs of this vicinity returned to their
homes.
We regret to say that owing to the indis.
erect action of a number OF drunken Copper
heads, dsgraceiul fight took place, in which
several persons were more or less injured.
We arc informed that these Copperheads
were congregated at hotel in the place,
and grossly insulted some of the "Boys in
Blue, = when fight ensued, in which the
Cops were roughly handled, and a portion
Of the furniture in the bar-room demolished.

of knowing his worth and patriotism, He
was an eye witness to many OF the acts OF
intrepidity and valor which characterized
his companion in arms; they being on duty
