ted Our citizens have justifiable pride in
the Band and owe them the most liberal pat
ronage. Whea the new arrangements are per-
fected it will be in far better condition than
ever. Nearly every man is finished artist, and
all are gentlemen of integrity and worth. We
hope that the coming season will be the most
prosperous they have ever known.
THE GRAND ARMY RE-UNIoN-There is now
but little doubt that this affair, which is to oc-
cur on Wednesday of the present week, will
prove brilliant success. Encouraging reports
| come from all quarters of the State as to the
number, and if the weather is propitious we
may safely count upon fine display. 1t will
be seen by notice in another column that the
Post in this city extends an invitation to all
honOrably discharged soldiers and sailors resi-
dent among us to participate in the festivities
of the occasion; and also that limited number
of citizens tickets, admitting to the entertain
ment in the evening only, have been issued.
