The arms of the military glittered in the b t sunlizht; the various flags were borne aloft in a group, and the differently colored and ornamental uniforms afforded a striking contrast, one to another, rendering the rcene, indeed, beautiful. The Marice Band per formed, meanwhile, an air appropriate to the eecasion, usder the direction of Professor Scala, and led by the drum-major, Mr. McGreavy. Immense crowds witnessed the review, and many were the praises bestowed by the populace, not only on the imposing ap- pearance of the regiment, but their fine and orderly military movements. We felt proud that we had eo effective a militia force in our metropolis, that description of troopson wich we must mainly depend for our protection in times of actual war. The review being completed, the legion left the President’s grounds, on its way to the site for the proposed District armory, the southern or B street side of that portion of the Mall between Sixth and Seventh streets; and as it our office, the Marine Band was play ing & medley in fine style, which we afterward learned was called the ‘ Evening Siar Quick- step.” Grouni was eu! tly broken for the armory, but the President of the United States Was not present, owing, it is said, to business engagements which he could n-t neglect. ‘Wants.
