coiored servant. Colonels Hernandez
and Colasko, of the Cuban delegation,
and Captain Abelgard, Of the Norweg-
ian army were among the spectators
on the stand.
BY an illness that the doctors thought
too severe to warrant him leaving his
bed Colonel Coursen was deprived Of
the proud distinction of leading his
brigade in the review. Colonel Coryell,
Of the Twelfth, was substituted for
him. and during Colonel Coursen's ILL
ness will remain in command of the
brigade.
The Thirteenth in common with the
rest Of the regiments, looked much bet
ter than yesterday, by reason of the
distrlbUtion of uniforms and equip
ment in the interim. Guns. however
were sadly lacking, some companies
having bare dozen, and one whole
regiment, the Eighth, Ohio, appearing
without arms.
The Fourth Missouri was the only
new regiment to appear in the parade.
They came in last night, but at Cen
eral Graham's request turned out for
the review. The First Rhode Island
came in this morning, but could not
set into shape in time for the review.
