signed II place in the line, but from
some misunderstanding OF the orders re-
ccivcd, they did not join in the procession.
The line Of march was down Monroe TO
Market, up Market to Madison, along
Madison to NTain up Mainto Washington,
up Washington to the toll.gatc and thence
70 the point South Of the Cemetery. When
the line reached the stand II was cSti-
mated that five thousand persons were
present. The scene presented from
the platform when all had gathered
about It may bc imagined, but not des'
cribcd. The numbers, the fine display OF
flowers, the banners. the magnificent
prospect down the river and over among
the hills of Old Belmont, all cOnspired to
make picture Of mre and exquisite
beauty.
Arrived ut the stand, General Kelley
called the crowd 10 order, and in brief
speech returned the thanks of the Grand
Army Of the Republic to those who Ind
contributed to make the demonstration
grand success.
At this stage Of the proceedings it was
announced irOmthe stand that letters from
several distinguished gentlemen, regret.
ting their inability to he present on the
occasion, had been received by the Com.

CoxDITIoNIoF WINTER WHEAT.-The Com
missioner OF Agriculture, In report just Issued,
says that while the appearance of wheat is by
no means ~ promising ~ IL was last year, the
difference Is due more to backwardness Of
growth, caused by late planting followed by an
early winter. which allowed OF little more
than termination before cold weather set In,
than to injuries from freezing. The mild
weather and light SHOWS Of the winter-wheat
region were accompanied with few sudden
changes In the earlier winter months, while the
colder and rougher weather OF later winter was
attended with heavier SHOWS, which furnished
valuable protection at a critical season, which
may yet result, the season favoring, in q fine
crOp of wheat.
