taanOs
The approaching anniversary of our
country's independence promises to be cee-
brated in an appropriate manner in Rut-
land, next Saturday. The committees,
who were appointed at the meeting held
last week for that purpose, have compile
ted all the necessary arrangements, and
programmes announcing the order of eXer-
cises for the day, have been quite extern
slvely circulated. Many amusing and in
teresting attractions are noticed upon the
bills, and those who attend from abroad,
may rest assured that they will be well re-
paid for coming to Rutland to see the
show. One of the most attractive fea-
lures of the day will be the music, which
is to be furnished by the Sherman band,
of Winooski. The reputation of this
band is SO wide and general, that it is not
necessary, at this time, to make any furth-
or mention of them. The great attraction
of the day will be the p-raid of the "Disin-
terested Starvelings," who have accepted the
invitation of the committee to be present
UPON INC hctusioH lHiS is lnc lllot tiillt
that they have ever appeared in Rutland,
Of not in the state.) "hencc it is with
great pleasure the announcement is made
to a sympathetic and discriminating pub
lie" that the services of the above wonder
tul indescrbable troupe, (who in richness
of attire, and conveyed in carriages and on
horses, that battle all description have
been secured, at great expense, for the oc-
casion. Their grand parade will take place
at eleven o'clock precisely, one hundred
strong, escorted by their own unrivalled
band whose music is said to be perfectly
enchanting to the listener In their pro-
cession will be seen the President of the ID.
S., seated in the imperial carriage, once
used by julius Seller, and for which it is
said President Grant offered $500, 900 The
venerable object of humanity, G. Wash
ington's nurse, will also be present, to lend
dignity to the scene. The celebrated and
wonderful bareback and bare-faced rider,
Murad Bey, will be present with them.
Among the distinguished guests, who will
appear with them (the first time that many
of them have ever visited Rutland) are
mentioned President Grant, who will pro-
badly come direct from Long Branch ,
Hon b. f. Butler, Senators Jones and
Revels, and Boss Tweed, whom they have
induced, the wardens of Blackwell's Island
to grant leave of absence fort this great day;
Those persons who have been the unwill
ing subjects of the jokes perpetrated by
the nonentity bearing the euphonous So
briquet of Tom Collins, and who have
never yet been able to find him, are in
formed that he will certainly be present
With the ID. S., they having vouched tC
him for his safety. This will probably bl
q the only chance that the people Of Yer

n parsonage They will be accompanied by
