The Army Banquet in Boston.

We copy the following dispatch to the
New York Times:
Boston, Mass, May -, Midnight.-The
festivities at the Revere House, now at their
height, are fit close to the reunion of to-
day. Over four hundred Potomac officers
and men are participating and more CON
vivial boisterously enthusiastic and noisy
set never assembled. The banquet hall is
finely decorated and tables deliberately or
namented. OF decorations the most con
spicuous is a huge emblematic badge of the
Army of the Potomac, in the centre of
which is the mOnogrOm "A. p, surrounded
with flags and eagles: and of table Orna-
ments, a miniature six gun battery, jutting
from green banked intrenchments, and sew
eral towers and Notifications, modelled from
harmless sugar and CONNECTIONS.
At the table of honor sits the new Presi-
dent, General Hooker, and on his immedi-
ate left Generals Sheridan, Burnside,
Devens Mcdowell Collector Russell and
other prominent men, and on his right Gen
erals Meade, Logan and PleasOnton, Com
modore Steadlnan and others of note
During the dinner Gilmore's band, stationed
in the corridor, performed at odd moments
many of the old war tunes, such SHOUT
ing the Battle Cry of Freedom "Sher-
mans Marching Through Georgia" GLORY,
Glory, Hallelujah," &c, and the ex-sOldiers
paused in the pleasing work of clearing
tables to Justify '..join in the chorus" The
speaking began at about ten o'clock. but it
did not amount to much. the crowd being
in no humor TO listen, and showing dispo-
sition to tolerate but little. Marshal Sharpe,
of New York, acted as toast maker.
The principal speeches were by Collector
RUSSELL General Mcdowell Ex-Governor
Woodford, of New York, and Governor
Tucker, of this State. An attempt to read
letter from Admiral Porter, in response to
a toast to the navy, was unsuccessful, the
noise of those opposed to it and its author
deadening the thin, treble voice of the
reader. Though the words of speakers
generally were not very attentively heard,
every patriotic sentiment was caught up
and loudly cheered, which clearly demon
stated that the representatives of the old
army, which suffered long, but finally en-
joyed the victory, are as loyal aud true to-
day as ever.
