 If June 18th is pleasant day 1t will proba- bly see in Hartford parade of the veteran soldiers and sailors of the State, hardly sec- ond to that wonderful gathering of Battle Flag day. Every man who parsded on that occasion will want to be present again to see if that day can be equalled, and those unfor- tunate ones who were not present then, but who have been listening ever since to the account of that remarkable occasion will take care that they do not miss another such reunion. Moreover the veterans are grow ing old and they realize that there will be very few occasions hereafter to call out State parade. This is the reason that all the old regiments have called their reunions at Hartford to do honor to the memory of the beloved War Governor. for whom g bronze statue is to be placed in the Battle Flag corridor of the Capitol
 The arrangements are now complete. The parade will start at 11:30 Q. m., or ss soon thereafter as possible. It will be short one, through streets crowded with appropriate decorations, and escorted by the famous Seventh regiment of New York, and the First regiment, 0. N. G.. The generous citi- gems Of Hartford are preparing to entertain tIeir veteran visitors with substantial lunch both before and after the parade.
 The veterans will assemble st their respec- tive headquarters on the park near the depot, and will be furnished a lunch on, their arri- val. The veterans will be-. masssd at the Capitol at the close,of the parade, and after the unveiIing of the statue will march through the Capitol building, after which dinner will be served, end the formal exer- cises of the day will close.
 After dinner the New York Seventh reai= nnent will be reviewed and will give dress parade on the park.
 The returning trains will leave in time to reach every part of the State before late at night. It is believed that such arrangements are made as will prevent the delay of trains and other inconvenienees Of Battle Flag day. aside from the prominent soldiers and pub lie men of Connecticut, are General Sheridan and possibly President Arthur.

 Though it may be irregular for physician to give a certificate in favor of q proprietary medicine, st1ll in the cause of humanity, venture to say word in favor of ,ALLcocKsa POROUS PLAsTERs, which I esteem the most remarkable external remedy of this century. @ Ihaye known these Plasters to cure Spinal Weakness where the patient had been con fined for months to his bed. A blacksmith of my acquaintance was severely injured in the back by the kick of "a horse; four AH4L- DOCKS PoRous PEAsTERs sqaickly relieved him of excruciatings agony and cured him ln "a week. Another patient, suffering with Neu- raigia of the Heart, was completely cured in four hours.
 In Asthma, know of case where they were worn for three months and fully restor-' ed the health. In another case whers pa- tient had Sporadic Cholera, nothing relieved him until he put on three ALLoocKs s POROUS PLAsTERs; in twelve hours all pains in his chest and stomach disappeared. I know that these Plesters, applied on the pit of the stomach, are sovereign remedy for Dgspep- sia and Constipation.
 Finally, if persons once use ALLoooK's POROUS PLAsTERs they will never use any other; they are so pleasant, quick and pain- less-1ature's balmy assistant.
