| daY's Grand Military and Naval Re- view-Connecticut'sT Troops Almost Left They Arrive at the Last Moment-The Troops Off for Charleston. YORKTOWN, Oct. 20.-The feature of to- days events was the grand review of military | organizations by the President and Cabinet, Generals Sherman and Hancock and their l staffs and distinguished guests. Early this l morning thousands repaired to. the grand l stand located on the outskirts of the camp and awaited the coming procession. There | was some delay in consequence of the non- ! arrival of the Connecticut troops, but Gen. ! Hancock after waiting half an hour after the | regular time for all delinquents to appear finally concluded to start the procession. In | the meantime the war ships in the harbor were firing salutes and the batteries at the | camp added to the thunder, and when the l crowd was assembled along the route over which the procession was to pass the scene was one of the greatest enthusiasm. The day was bright and fair and aided materially in showing the troops to good advantage. Short after 10 o'clock strains of martial music gave notice to the assemblage of the coming of the procession. The route over which the procession was to pass lay along the bor- ders of Temple farm and was a circuit of about four miles. General Hancock on horseback headed the procession. His com ing was generally hailed with cheers, and when himself and staff reached the grand stand the applause was deafening. General Hancock and staff fell out of line when the grand stand was reached, and dismounting took seats on that structure and reviewed the troops as they passed. The procession passed in the order named below, while a battery of artillery on the right of the field fired appro- priate salutes:

 These last two named commands marched overland to Yorktown and were cheered at every point along the route. The Thirteenth Brooklyn, the New Jersey troops and the Ninth Massachusetts were loudly cheered on the march and were declared rivals in com petition for marching. After the review the First Connecticut regiment marched at once to their boat and left for Charleston, S. O., where they will be the guests of the Wash ington Light Infantry of that city. The lat ter command left for home immediately afterwards. The Georgia and Rhode Island troops left for home this afternoon also Governor Cornell entertained the President and State Governors at dinner. About the same time General Hancock gave dinner to the army and navy officers and the officers of volunteer commands. Both dinners were largely attended and were affairs of great brilliancy.
 This afternoon the naval review took place under the direction of Rear Admiral Wyman. It was an interesting event. The maneuvers were similar to those usually presented at or dinary reviews.
 The President and party left here for home to-night, and though many persons still lin ger hereabouts, the celebration is practically over.
