city, to attend the school Gen. Choate
and Col. harrington will each deliver a
brief address before the officers upon vari-
Gus questions Of importance and interest
to them and for the welfare of the Ma

Guard will be held the first of August, in
order to give the officers and soldiers who
are Commandery Masons an opportunity
to attend the trienniul conclave, which
will be held later in the month, in Bos-
ton. In all probability there will be two
more companies added to the regiments
before they enter camp.

occupied by Capt. Hall at the last muster.
The officer in question says that Lieut..
