THE CLAM BAKE.
At 10 o'clock the VISITORS escorted by the
Portland boys, together with large number
of invited guests, marched to Custom House
wharf and embarked on the Gazelle for the
islands. The Worcester company were attired
in French chasseur a pied uniform; short
dark blue coat, reaching to the hips, with two
rows of cadet buttons, ana trimmed with
light buff piping, French cap, zouave trousers
with piping up the seam, black CATERS and
heavy shoes. It was remarkably neat uni
form and very Stylish setting off the exceed
ing fine-looking young men admirably. The
band wore dark corded uniforms to correspond,
and played exceedingly we'll large crowd
filled the streets, who commented most favor
ably on the strangers. As the soldiers reached
the wharf the cannon on board belched forth a
salute, flags floated in the wind from every
possible projection, and the little Minnehaha,
which preceded the Gazelle down the bay, was
decked with bunting A sail of two hours
were heartily enjoyed among the islands, the
fresh breeze affording an admirable appetite
for the CLANS
About OF clock the b at the Island wa
opened and proved one Trefethen's best.
The way CLANS and diE disappeared, with
| Holsters and eggs, bread and butter and coffee,
| was q caution. A couple of hours was then
| spent in foot ball, base ball, music by the
| bands, and both the Worcester and Portland
| organizations did cover themselves all over
with sglory-and sky-larking. At p. m. the
| city was reached and the route taken up for
the Falmouth where ranks vera broken pre-
| paratory to the parade.

| Guests in Carriages
| The route of march was through Middle,
| Exchange, Congress and Bramhall streets to
| Western Promenade, where dress parade was
| held after which the route of march was coD.
| tinued through Pine, Vaughan, Bowdoin,
| Neal, Spring, Emery. Danforth, State, Deer.
| ing, High and Free streets to the Falmouth
| hotel, where the battalion was dismissed. The
marching was capital, the battalion numbered
some 200 men, including the bands, and, as
they passed this office, full company front, the
alignments were excellent, and the bearing Of
the men very soldierly. Crowds viewed the
dress parade, and filled the streets en- the line
of march, while flags were generally displayed
The flag borne on the march by the Worcester
Light Infantry was the same the old com
mand carried SO gallantly in the war OF 1872
for be it known, the record of the Worcester's
is interviewer with all the brayest fights OF the
last war with Great Britain, the Mexican wal
and the Rebellion.
On the Promenade the crowd was so dense
that it required great exertion and much time
to get proper space for the dress parade, and Oh
the return halt was made at Mr. Warren 4
on Statestreet where the boys were invited in
The afternoon train from Boston brought As
sistant Adjutant General Kingsbury and Col
Hascal of Gov. Longs staff, who participated
in the parade as did Mr.. e. A. ellison of the
Falmouth, who is member of the famous
New York sold Guard" and who wore the
celebrated white uniform of the corps.
THE BANQUET.
Owing to the lateness of the hour before thu
parade ended, it was 10 O'Clock before the ban
quet was served at the Falmouth Hotel. The
guests gathered in the parlor and proceeded tt
the spacious dining hall, which presented su
perb appearance. Instead of the formal Ions
table running tue length of the hall, with
another at right angles for distinguished
guests, there was the table for the principals
with short branches, and then the remainder
were small tables accommodating some sixteeI
or twenty guests each. The new balcony TO
the bands is great improvement. and from
l both the Worcester and Portland organization
