See easy REGIMENTAL Pers. Oldiers in proverbially fond of pets. But the Oadeat pete we bave yet seen were two bears, which the 12th Maine regiment, of the 19th corps, led through the city yesterday. These bears were bronght all the way from Louisiana, and have been in several fichts. They have become per- fectly tame and tractable, and march along at the head of the band, with an air that indicates pela craeteeee ce veteran soldiers of the » and that th satan. ey have a character to regiment that passed through some days ago had with it a mountain gone captured alsa in Louisiana, and which has been in several battles and skirmishes. In one of the latter he ‘was seriously wounded, but by careful nursing he got well. By reason of that wound, how- ever, that goat can never enter into the congre- gation, for reasons set forth in Deuteronomy. — THE Pic-Nic at LogrFLer’s.—Yesterday, a Pic-nic was given at Loefiler’s Garden, which closed with a ball at night. The place was crowded. About ten o’clock at night some fighting was begun, giving a little exciting va- Tiety tothe occasion. It appears that the par- ties eng: were the B’hoys of Crow Hill, and soldiers from the hospitals, between whom and the B’hoysan antipathy has existed for seme time. Ata previous pic-nic they came in con- tactand the B’hoys got the better ofthe sol- diers, who were forced to “retire in good or- der.” Last night the soldiers were better pre- ared, and the B’hoys were roughly handled. me of the combatants were wounded with billies or stones, but not seriously. The police ejected several of the disorderly ones, but no arrests were made that we have heard of. ——. AMUSEMENTS To-MorRow.—All of the theaters and places of amusement will beopen to-morrow night.
