The review Of the 10th L. 5. Infantry
by Gov. Porter and staff, at the invitation
Of Bevet Maj or General G. PenHeypacker
took. place according to announcement

Guiding very many ladies, fOcked to Ash
Barracks Il is estimated that from three
to four thousand persons were pressnt to
witness the review. They occupied a
space around the parade ground in the en-
closure, and formed a deep and unbrUken
TaDk entirely around. .
&. Gov. Porter was accompanied by two
officers Of his staff, Adiutant General Ham
by and .Brgadier Generals Onelson, and
Hon. Charles y. Gibbs, Secretary Of State.
On entering fairgrounds the Governor and
his party drove Immediately TO Gen.

where they were saluted by the officers and
battalion, u which Maj. Vance was in
command. The reviewers marched,
around the troops and returning to their
original position, stood, while the troops
passed in review, going through with a Sc
ries of fascinating military exercises.
Meanwhile the 10th Infantry Band, whose
fame for sOul-stirring measures, has spread
far and wide, rendered a programme Of
their most popular airs. The troops. band,

The DeaInrska Tronpe.

The Memphis Ledger gives US the i'm
preston which the Hungarian Queen OF
Song and her troupe made 10 the Bluff City
where they have just finished a wonderful
ly successful engagement. The Ledger
says
'.DeMurska's organ is q high, pure
soprano, rather dramatic, but Of marvellous
fcXibility, and with q capacity in the piano
effects which IS absolutely amazing. 1t is
a voice for trills and Toulads, for scaling
dizzy nights at one tremendous leap, or for
floating or in waves that sOftens into rip
pies and then dies away so softly as to de-
lude your ear. In diminuendO, in cres-
cendo, as in the staccItO, DeMurska
stands nrivaled; IN grace, in d~elicacy and
in a certain airiness, for which We cannot
find an adequate expression, she strikes US
as without a peer. She is simply wonder
full, phenomenal. For all these gifts the
fair Hungarian found a full and fitting dis
play last night in the aria from Linda,
Caydtina from Norma, the Hungaria songs,
HOme, Sweet Home Good Night, Ny
Dear Child and elixir dAmOre,' and we
believe that few who listened last night to
that wonderful effort will fail to treasure
it a. an experience to be recalled in the
future with great delight. SignOr Braga,
with his sweet cello, was happy in his
selections he is the master king Of his
instrument; Mime CarrenO Sauret, the best
lady pianist we ever heard; and Mons.
Sauret, the Uurivaled viOlinist, executed
their selections with usual artistic merit.
DE MUrSka aud her troupe make their
first appearance here tonight. Owing to q
change in the time Of their appearance,
caused by their detention in Memphis for a
grand sacred concert, there are still some
Of the best reserved seats for sale tonight.
The reserved seats are fixed at 3; admis-
sion Sl.jO; admission to galieS IS cents,
and reserved seats there 81. To those Of
us who have paid s. a seat to hear De
Murska in the Academy Of Music, New
York, this seems moderate.
