Rev Cornelius Tuelings, pastor of St Johns church of Watertown and former assistant pastor of the church of the Sacred Heart of this city will deliver the invocation. The committee of arrangements has an- nounced that other prominent speakers will be in attendance.
 Tho Waterbury band is composed of Catholic laymen who have made 1t practice for several years to pay an annual visit to Mount Man. ressa on Staten Island and spend a weekend in attending special re- ligious services. At the outset the few who became attracted to the plan joined the New Haven con- tingent, but through the efforts of Maurice Donovan, promoter, the idea was quickly popularized. Wa terbury has surpassed all cities of the state in the number of its dele- gation. It's annual dinners have be- come events of noteworthy interest to all Waterburians by virtue of the prominence of the speakers invited to address the gatherings.
 Over 150 will be present at the dinner. Scores of requests for tick cts have been courteously refused and from all indications the annual dinner of 1882 may be held in some special place that will afford &C., commodations for twice the num- Der who have planned to attend this particular meeting.
