FOURTH REGIMENT BAND.
The Finest Musical OrganizatiOU

The Fourth Regiment Band, twenty
three pieces, under the leadership OF Prof

yesterday afternoon, 1t is magnificent
musical combination, and beyond all

elegantly equipped band in the State.

They came to Ashcyillc to make music
for the American Carnival which closed
last evening, and during their stay in the
city will occupy apartments ut the Swan
nanoa. They made brilliant appear
anCc in their handsome uniforms, and re-
ccivcd many compliments from the
crowds which throngcd about them
when paradIng the streets. The music
they made was simply perfect, while their
drilling was the finest we have ever seen.
Thc commands were simple blasts from
an ordinary band whistle, not 4 word
being spoken. So perfect were they in
the drill that loud cheers and torrents of
apprcciativc applause greeted their Su-
and cmncntly deserved the unStintcd
praise they elected from hose who heard
the music they made and witnessed the
excellent drills they went through with.
The managers Of the Carnival made no
mistake in securing the services of the
Fourth Regiment Band for their closing
night and we doubt if Il finer musical
aggregation could have been procured in
the South than the one which gave such
universal satisfaction last evening. Every
member of the band is gentleman, and
a musician of no ordinary talent, and
THE CITIZEN takes pleasure in saving
that the impression the Fourth Regiment
Band has made in AShcvillc will he both
pleasant and lasting. 1t is the best band
in the State and THE CITIZEN is proud Of
it. Come to AShcvilIc oltcncr, gentle
men. You will always find a sincere and
cordial welcome.

Of the affair have every reason to be

them for two evenings of pleasure that
could not have been surpassed.
The chcI actors in the Carnival have
won for themselves great honor and

made in behalf of sweet charity than for
the very brilliant manner i'll which they
have acquitted themselves of the OncrOuS

assumed A wreath Of laurel each has
nobly won.
The Carnival last evening, was, as we
predicted, much more delightful in every
particular than on the preceding night.
The aSscmbagc was much larger, and
then the music lent additional charms to
the glory of the truly magnificent pano-
rama, Everybody and his friends were
in attendance, and the party who failed
in having a royal good time has vet to
be heard from.
The tablcaux were charming, and the
way in which the booths were patron
