NATIONAL GUARD AFFAIRS.

only one theme practically, is discussed among the
National Guardsmen in this city Just at present.
This is Of course the big demonstration at Van Court
landt Park on Thursday when Governors Hill ana
Albeit will review the First Brigade This affair
has caused the commanding officers of nearly an
Che CITY regiments to order drills to begin somewhat
EARLIER than usual TO prepare for the affair." The talk
of the officers when they meet in the armOi1es IS
almost exclusively concerning the coming parade
There are several important questions TO be answered
bv the commander of each regiment One OF these
Is the question Of transportation The commanding
officer Of each organization must decide for himself
how he will transport the members OF his command
from the armOry to the park and back again. Inc
nroblem IS comparatively simple in going 10 the park
because the soldiers will go to the parade ground
long before the general public starts for the scene
H. however there should be as many spectators
1,csent as are expected, the Question of getting
home will be complicated There is practically
only one way 10 get 10 and from the park, ana
that IS over the elevated railroad to One-hundred
and 6fty ffth-st. ard then over the New-Iork ana
Northern Railroad to the park. In returning inc
same roads must be used, and the probabilities are
that the railroads will be severely taxed to take
care Of the crowd Some of the regiments will prob
.hiv march to tho NcwYork Central station at Kings
Bridge and take the train 10 the Grand Central sta
ton and then march from there TO their arnories.
Neither the city nor the state has provided grand
stand at Van COurtandt Park iOf ocbOoeT o. anu Ho
space will be reserved except for the reviewing officer
and his staff and limited number OF regular and Ma
tonaI Guard officers. The parade ground Is large
however and the surrounding land being higher than It,
the exercises may be seen TO advantage from every
point.
No carriages will be allowed inside Of the parade
ground but room will be found the west side along
t. the line of Broadway, which commands n good view
of the entire field. Two new platforms being put
IN by the railroad company, the lower end OF the
Park to be called Van Courtlandt Park Station. and
little farther north, TO be called the Mosh0lu Sta
ton. Those desiring to view the parade from the south
sde.wi land at the rstnamed station, and those do
sinng TO take advantage OF the hills at the north
end will use the lastnamed. The drill will begin at
30 the dress parade ut and the review at 80, 50
that every one can return at 80.
