The FIRST MAINE CAVALRY REUNION will
take place at Augusta tomorrow. We hope TO
report very full gathering of old comrades
who will revive the recollections of an honora-
BILE warfare. The regiment has glorious rep
utation, and its colors are completely filled with
the names of battles in which it participated;
and the members ought to come together to-
morrow, as many as can and make the reunion
jubilee. twill be gratifying to the men to
known that their brave and generous COM
mander, Gen. Charles H. Smith has promised
to meet them at Augusta.
