MILITARY REVIEW AT NORWAY.
Especial Dispatch by Weste n Union Line.l
NORWAY, Oct. 5, via So. Paris-On the ar
rival of the morning train from Portland sa-
lutte was fired by detachment from the Nor
way artillery company. At the arrival of the
train Capt Parker and staff of the Mechanic
Blues we're received by the Norway Light In
fsnsry, numbering one h1 sdTe1 and niHs, after
which the Auburn Light Infantry, under Capt.
Pray, seventy-fve men, were received by the
Norway Light Infantry and escorted to the
Fair grounds. A ten O clock a collation. was
furnished by the N. L. I. for their friends At
twelve O'Clock squad drill of twenty-four
picked men from the N. L. L., under command
OF private Stevens, went through the bayonet
drill and silent drill in as fine style as ever was
performed in the State. At one and half
O'Clock there was company drill. At two o'clock
battalion was formed by Lieut.. G. j. Pencil
acting Adiutant, Gen. Geo. L. Beal command
ing the battalion, after which the battalion was
formed for review and was reviewed by Capt
Parker aud staff, who pronounce it the best re-
view that has been performed in the State this
year.. After the review the battalion was
marched to Concert Hall where dinner was
provided. Dress parade at six o'clock in front
of the Elm House; supper at seven O'clock
The dance commenced at nine o'clock. The
whole thing is perfect success and the fine
military and civil bearing of the men is the
subject Of universal comment. Portland should
be proud of her fine officers who were present
and added not little to the success of the &C.
casioD. These two companies are an ornament
to our military system, composed as they are of
fine physique and excellent social standing
Many of them have seen active service, and
consequently are imbrued with the esprit du
corps that is necessary to restore State mill
tary organization to the pace in public estima-
tion that it occupied in the olden time. In the
selection of the uniforms fine taste has been
displayed, and we feel that they would bear
themselves proudly by the side of any of the
"crack" companies of any place in New Eng
land. Among the notables present at the re-
view was Governor-elect Perham.

casion Henry Barnabee of Boston and many

A SLIGHT MIsTAKE.-The other morning,
Just after one of our friends had opened his
store for the business of the day and was talk
ing with another friend, a man came in whose
husky tones denoted pretty intimate acquain-
lance with the brandy bottle, and without any
formal opening address remarked that she
should like (hic) jams 'ead." "Jam my head
will you" said our friend; "if you don't get
out of this store in short order Til thrash you
out of your boots" This man paused mo-
ment, gave one glance at the warlike express
sion on our friends face, turned and vanished.
As our friend looked around he saw his friend
was INDUCING in a noiseless laugh. "What
are you laughing at" said he? "Why," said
his friend. 81 am laughing to think how you
frightened that poor fellow; he wanted to
know il he should examine your head, being a
phrenologist, while you thought he intended to
annihilate you on the spot"
