GERMAN VOLUNTEERS.

The Concordia Park, which has been re-
Gently improved and beautiied, was
selected by the German Volunteers as their
resort for the day. The company made q
fine turnout, and we're accompanied to the
grounds by the Mechanics Brass Band. 1t
is scarcely necessary to say that joy pre-
sided at the gathering, as II has passed into
a proverb that when the German military de-
eide TO have a frolic, 1t means good time.
Dancing and other amusements were In
dulged in, and the park presented very
handsome and animated appearance. The
festivities were prolonged until late In the
evening, and then there was no sign Of
WEAKNESS. During the afternoon and eve
ming scores of the members Of other com
panies, city and county officials visited the
Park to participate in the enjoyments OF the
occasion. At dark there was magnificent

The Chatham Artillery, after bidding good
bye to their comrades of the Republican
Blues at the intersection of South Broad and
Habersham streets, and after Captain j. F.
Wheaton briefly returned his acknowledge
ments to the Blues for the courtesy of their
escort, enjoyed a rapid run to the Schuet-
zen Park. The beautiful grounds never
looked more attractive, and the delightful
weather put everybody in a good humor.
Fine music having been provided by the
efficient committee, dancing was soon in
augurated in the spacious pavilion, and
was continued throughout the day. A
number of the members of other corps were
present, including officers of the First Regi-
Inent, and the hours glided by pleasantly
and epioyably. The Galatians maintained
their reputation for hospitality, and there
was nothing lacking in the arrangements
for good time generally. Few who had
the good fortune to be present will forget
the pleasure Of the occasion.

into the store of things laid up for win

among the farmers Of the valley. There
was one rule at the apple cuts which
met the warm approval of every coun-
try beau. The girl who spared and
quartered" the smallest quantity Of ap-
ples in a given time was Lound to give
kiss to every van present. The "old
folks" used to say that the rule was q
bad one because every girl seemed to
