A SI,75O,OOO, 900 spread.

The Bank of the Manhattan Company
which celebrates its centennial anniver-
sary on April 5, has sent out invitations
to the Ga Presidents of the banks which
are members OF the Clearing house and
and the trust companies to a dinner to be
given at Sherry's on the evening of the
day named. This gathering, according
10 New York dispatches, will represent
the largest aggregation of capital that has
ever been seen in the city around a ban
quet table, Tar exceeding the dinner given
to the late James &. Blaine after his
nomination to the Presidency. In fact,
careful estimate of the money interests
to be represented at the dinner puts the
total at l,750, ,000, 900.

drum to set the pace, and the plod of feet

the extra weight on the straps was cutting
the shoulders. At 10 Il run was crossed that
wet to the ankles. At II an almost vertical
sun frightened the leather on the parboiling
flesh beneath, and the soreness of the shoulder
was swallowed up in the greater ache Of the
plodding feet. A rest, do you ask? The ad-
vance pulled out the evening before. At
noon short halt was made ON the banks of
brook, where coffee was hastily cooked and
more quickly drunk, and the plod, plod
went on. At 2 another wetting of feet, and

National Cavalry Reunion; but

the dangerous ground he is tres

Of the 7th Ohio, awakens a VOL

fully on your personal recol-

TRIBUNE writers have all been
shy of that cavalry retreat from
the Tennessee River to Frank

elegantly whipped, every time
you made a stand, that you
want to f0get it.
Gen. Horace Capron is the
only man that attempted a
iull history Of his brigade's
action during those days,
and he told me that he
never would have undertaken
to write up the subject had he
known, at the beginning, of the
many tar giles in which it would
involve him. Yet the ultimate
results-tbe development Of
Gen. Observation-Disclosures we'll

commanding that entire mass
of cavalry, that unjointed it
self at his will, can ever write
that history.
Serg't Wash Hoyt, Co. D,

Laredo, Texas, Aug. 5.-An incident

between the two LsredOs. which may
create complications between the United
