the Townsend House this morning I saw a
crowd Of men with shiny beavers cooked on
their heads, and with their hands thrust Leep
In their breeches pockets. They stood upon tho
sidewalk. Many Of them wore hig diamonds on
their breasts, and good cigars stuck out from
their mouths. They looked familiar. At first
thought that somebody had dumped an old

inquiry learned they were the Addition, Divis-

were twenty eight OF them. Euey were the
guests of the city. They stood In groups, play

every lady who passed out Of countenanre.
