THE TRIP General Grant came from Galena to Dunleith on a train Thursday morning, with his suite, and got the Jtasca at the latter point. At ten A. M. the Itasca started on her up tryp. At every hamlet and land- fing on the river crowds were present to grect the Gene- gal with cheers, At Cagsviie, Clayton and Guttenberg, darge numbers were preseat. | At McGr and Prairie @u Chien, also, fine ovations greeted the Generalyand the Mbabitante were out en masse. We propose to confine our account more particularly fo General Grant’s reception in this State. The first peer in the borders of Minnesota at which the Itasca ded was Brownsville, at which point the boat arrived early in the forenoon. Here the whole population were out, and, for want of any better means, saluted the Gene- rat with a few feu dejrie of musketry. The General ap- peared and bowed to the crowd. At this point the steamer McLellan met the Itasca, having brought down from La Crosse a huge load of citi- zens of that place, and’ the boats returned to La Crosse lashed together. ' At La Crosse General Grant was taken to Singer’s Hall whore he was welcomed in a neat address by the Mayor, and replied ip his usual brief way. After a delay of a f'6w minutes the party returned to the boat. and started on. ‘About a mile above La Crosse the Diamond Jo, on sthich was the delegation from St. Paul, met the Itasca, and, having rounded to, ran a few moments alongside fhe latter until we got’ aboard, when we all had the pleasure of an introduction to the General, and a few gainutes conversation, when the call to’ dinner was wounded. Feeding such a crowd (three hundred) on a Boat is no eary Job, and we believe four tables were, set it we can testify to the splendid fare and good atien- tion, , ao. &e. © GENERAL GRANT. ‘AT WINONA. ‘Mhe svoamer urrived at Winona this afternoon, about ‘threo o'clock. By invitation of our citizens the boat about an hour, thus giving all an opportunity of greeting the distinguished Lieutenant General of our ar- mies and the conqueror of the great rebellion. Acommittee waited on the General on the arrival of the boat, and invited him to take a short drive boa oo the town to Huff's Hotel, where he might be seen by the ‘@housands who were so eager to get a look at him. This Anvitation having been promptly accepted the General ok his seat in the carriage, accompanied by Mr. Wash. wurne, of Ilinois, and one or two members of his staff. procession was then formed, which up Centre treet with the design of going around by way of Fourth. @treet; but the General executed a flank movement by @recting his carriage on a shorter route to the hotel, much to the di intinent of those of his numerous train of follower, who could not keep up with him. Arriving at the hotel, the distinguished guest toox a place assigned to him on the balcony, when he was ia- ‘Groduced to the assembled multitude, estimated at about ve thourand ns, by Mr. Dunnell, Chairman of the Commitice on ption. In presenting the General Mr. D. addressed him briefly, warmly wercoming him in elo- | ay Janguage to this city and the State of Minnesota, General responded to Mr. Dunnell’s welcome in the following words :— GENERAL GRANT'S GREAT SPFECH. Larie ase Goxriertx—Lhevrtily thack you for the Aw itis not my Babit, and as it would be impossibie for me to reply at Jength on every similar occasion, you will excuse me if Loonclude with my cordial thanks to the citizens of ‘Winona. ‘This speech, being a little longer than any that Gene- ral Grant is credited with having made elsewhere in bis travels, excited the heartiest applause, followed by three rousing cheers for the Lieutenant General. After the inevitable handshaking the General and sev- eral members of his staff were presented with elegant juets, and escorted to the boat. While at Winona some one who had heard that Gen- eral Grant was — smoker, Lad the effrontery to step up to bim and offer him a halfdozen cigars. The Gen- eral gave him a look from head to foot which would have withered any one, and quieuly replied:—“I do not wish 0 smoke now.” GENERAL GRANT'S FAMILY. Mra. Grant and her three children accompany the General. The oldest of these is Cadet Fred. Grant, a int student, a stout youth of fourteen, drease the gr: about seven, and Nellie, o girl of six, All these children of their illustrious parent ore plain and unassuming as Deis bynsell, Mrs. Grant is also a plain and sociable lady. ‘General Grant’s father is also with the party. He is a fine, benevolent, plain looking old gentieman, much more conversational than the General, about whom he converses freely. He recognized in Governor Miller an old acquaintance, and greeted him warmly. ‘A very amusing incident occurred at La Crosse. Two ladies seemed almost crazy to kiss General Grant, Bar could not obtain the cov pleasure Mr. Grant, ‘Sr., seeing their distress, osely remarked that ‘as they could not kiss the General the next best thing was to Kiss his father’ —which martyrdom be seemed willing to undergo. in uniform of the cadets.

The entire route was thronged with people packed on the sidewalks as close as they could stand, while every window was filled with ladles waving their handker- chiefs. Prolonged cheers greeted the General as he It was easy to recognize him by. his uniform ‘and insignia, and his countenance, with which the peo- ple are so familiar from hjs innumerable portaits. In front of the Merchants’ Hotel was crected a beauti- fal triumphal arch, tastefully decorated with evergreens, and trimmed with flags. From its centre was suspended a scroll, bearing the motto:— aronenne nee. during whic! neighbors ad- yr of our ARORA ANO EEN HE NOE I DNEELS-B) ‘WELCOME TO THR DEFENDER OF THE UNION. cee eOnr Oe SOCIOL IOLEIELE DE POOLED DEDODS DE ODD: On the "reverse :-— ROCCO TEE EIDE NE DEE DELO LELOLE DEDEDE IDOE LS GENERAL GRANT—IN WAR THE HEROIC SOLDIER; IN PEACE THE MODEL CITIZEN, te meen re OLE TEE TELS DOIOIODNI DD DOG Ht 00 O) On arriving at the International Hotel, which was sur- rounded by « dense crowd, estimated at five thousand, the firemen and provost guard formed lines leading from the door on Jackson street to the centre of the strect, and the party, dismounting, passed through these lines inte the = which was crowded with people. General Grant was escorted into the parlor, where @ number of persons were introduced to him. THE FORMAL WELCOME. Im afew minutes he was led on the balcony, where Mayor Prince met him, and the formal ceremonies of weicome took place. ‘Addressing the immense crowd below, Mayor Prince said:— LaDIES AND GrNTLEMEN—I have the honor to introduce to you our distinguished guest, Lieutenant General Grant. ‘The General stepped forward nearer the railing and bowed. His appearance was the signal for renewed cheering. Mayor Prince then delivered a short and ap- propriate welcoming address, GENERAL GRANT'S SPEECH. General Grant, leaning on the railing and looking at the crowd beneath, replied:— 18 AND GENTLEMEN—It is not my habit to make speeches, I thank you for the cordial welcome you have given me to St. Paul. Having said this he bowed and retired amid thundets of applause and an air from the band, which was sta- tioned in the stairway. The formal ceremonies of recep- tion and welcome were now concluded, and the party at once resumed their seats in the carriages, when the pro- cession was re-formed, and after marching through the sireets indicated in the programme falted at the foot of St. Anthony Hill, wMere the civic escort returned, and the party in carriages passed/on headed only by the Great Western Band in their wagon, THE TRIP TO THE FALLS. General Grant and party stopped at the residence of W. D. Washburne, Esq., about two miles and a half from the foot of St. Anthony Hill, where a most elegant and bounteous collation awaited their arrival. The General was here introduced to his hospitable hostess and maty guests, and nearly an hour was epent in an agreeable mauner, After which the party got into the carriages and continued on to St. Anthony, which was reached without any incident worthy of note, unless we except the breaking down of one of the carriages. AT ST. ANTHONY there was no formal demonstration; but the thronged streets through which the cortége passed gave the best evidence of the universal desire to honor the great soldier. AT MINNFAPOLIS. ‘The General was welcomed to Minneapolis by a grand salute. An immense crowd of people assembled in the square in front of the Nicollet House, and received him with tumultuous cheers, General Grant entered the Nicollet, and in a few moments was conducted to the balcony and introduced to the crowd below in a hand- some and appropriate manner by F. R. E. Corneil, Esq. Another round of cheers was given; but we believe Geu. Grant made no audible reply. His acknowledgments were rendered by several graceful bows. General Grant's father was led to the balcony and in- troduced, and he made a few remarks to the effect that it was not curiosity alone that drew such a ce number ‘of people together, but the instincts of patriotic feeling, &c, The party then took to their carriages, and were conducted to the mills, and subsequently to the residence of Hon. Cyrus Aldrich, where the Committee of Arrai ments had provided an excellent entertainment, to which ample justice was done by the guests, whose throats had become very dry from the effects of heat and dust. An hour was spent very pleasantly here, and just before peg buoy General Grant and the Galenians gathered on the lawn in front of the house, and were heartily wel- comed by Colonel Aldrich, who was formerly a resident of Galena and a personal friend of many of his guests. The Colonel was somewhat hum and as ceeded Grant’s grim countenance actually relaxed into a smile, and we thought a half smothered “ha! ha!’ issued from his lips, but it is possible we were mistaken. Hon. E. B. Washburne, in behalf of the excursionists, express- ed gratitude for the attentions ee had received from Colonel Aldrich and the citizens of Minneapolis, and after several rounds of cheers the party proceeded to MINNIEHAHA FALLS. Here the party debarked, and General Grant was con- ducted down the rough and precipitous hway toa point below, where the best view of the falls were ob- tained. He expressed his appreciation of their beauty, ‘but pot in extravagant terms. We were struck here with General Grant's remarkable simplicity of bearing. Teading his little child through the grounds, with eyes cast down, and his ders somewhat bent, no one who was not familiar with his countenance would have taken him for the Lieutenant General of the Mnited States and the foremost soldier of the world. AT THE FONT. Tho ‘reception here was in excellent taste, Outside the walls a salute was fred, and on entering the gate we found two finc companies of Hancock's corps drawn up in line, with presented arms, General Grant and party were conducted to the headquarters of Colonel McLaren, commandant of the fort, and thence to the bastion in the rear, where there was a most bountiful spread of re- ments provided for the guests by the officers of the post. The lovely landscape spread out on all sides from this point, elicited the admiration of all, .and General Grant, atter stealing furtive glances in various directions, e his appreciation of its beauty. About an hoor was spent here very pleasantly indeed, and the party then embarked and came to the city. THE BANQUET AND DEPARTURE. ‘The banquet at the International was the closing act of the ovation, and was a magnificent one in every res- pect. At nine o'clock about one hundred and fifty guests sat down to a splendid supper, which in its arrangements and profuseness was a great success. After ample justice had been done to the viands, and about an hour consumed at the table, the company and General Grant and suite retired to the parlor above. An immense crowd bad by this time collected in fro of the hotel, and calls were made for Grant, Govern Miller accompanied him to the baicony over the door on Seventh street, and introduced him to the crowd. The firemen, with their torches (ready to escort him to the boat) were drawn up in line, making it as light as day. General Grant’s appearance was the signal for tremen- dous cheering. en it subsided he said:— GextLemex—lI am about leaving you after a firet and a very pleasant visit to your State, 1 am much obliged for the cordial welcome you have given me. I bid you good night. He then retired, amid applause, and loud calle were made for Hon. FE, B. Washburne, who came forward aud made a few remarks in honor of General Grant, THE TORCHLIGHT PROCESSION. The carriages being now ready, the guests and escort ‘and the toreblight procession formed. The emen were ail in upiform, and each bore atorch. A al squad of them surrounded the General's car. riage. The Great Western band headed the procession, which made an imposing appearance. It marched through several of the principal streets, and finally ar- rived at the Levee. The party at once embarked on the Itasca, which had team up, and at balf-past eleven o'clock she backed ay from the Levee, aud turned her bow down stream, amid loud cheers from the crowd collected to see the General off. Thus ended a most remarkable occasion, one that will long be remembered by our citizens. Jersey City News.

PAUL. popnladietdhevteute'l véd Vindication of Colonel Amos Binney end Mr, Coles, of the First Ha Baas of Norfolk. < 70 rus sorte oF MAb Gani. _.. 9 Wasamerga, Atgust 30, 1965. ‘Your papér of the 25th contaimed a letter from Rich- mond, and your paper of the 28tb an editorial based thereon, both doing cruel injustice to Colonel Amos Binney, of the Pay Department, by representing him as mixed up 1 certain disreputable transactions by which the sdidiera he was appointed to pay have been heavily fleeced, ‘‘Forgeries and frauds,” ‘thousands of bogus soldiers” and ‘thousands of bogus discharges’? are binted at as a portion of the transactions to which refe- rence is made; and, although no direct accusation against Colonel Binney in any of these connections is advanced, yet, as his name is the only one mentioned either im letter or article, the impression left in the mind of every careless reader both is and must be that the officer named has been guilty of pretty nearly evory offence conceivable m the catalogue of financial crime. ‘Wel! assured of your unwillingness to do injustice toa faithful officer of high character and standing in all tne relations of life, or to allow your paper tobe made the vehicle of slanders put forth by interested parties (of whom Baker, the War Department detective, is chief), I now beg, in the name of justice to an injured gentleman, and as one acquainted thoroughly with all the facts in this case, that you will allow me to correct, as briefly and clearly a3 } ieastaoel some of the errors with which your Richmon: rrespondent—doubtiess obtaining his information from “official sources’’—has been induced to betray you, That there may have been ‘‘swindlers,” “yilaing;”” “men utterly without ‘patriotism, honor or conscience” in the Pay Department of our army, I have no wish to deny—exceptional cases ef this kind turning up in every branch ef the publiczervice, But let me protest energetically against the use of such epithets coupled with the name of an officer against whom tie only charge ever brought, even by his bitterest enemics, amounts to nothing more than a possible error ot dis- cretion, the sutlers, small money brokers and other camp followers of Richmond being alone responsible for the alleged malpractices of which Colonel Binney is ‘thus sought to be made the 4 In a word, tlre chargo against the Colemel is simply that he tssued to his subordinate paymast ers large quan- tities of seven-thirty bonds to be used in paying off all such soldiers as could be induced to aciept this higher and better form of reimbursement for theér services, and that he obeyed parse 992 of the Rewised Army Re- gulations by depositing in the First Niional Bank of Norfolk, Va., which is also the United fates depositary and fiscal agent 6f the government, “al such funds as were not wanted for immediate use."’ ‘This, divested of verbiage, is the charge, and t!" only charge, ever made against Colone! Binney; and for his action in the matter he cea plead the approval of the Secretmry of the Treasu- ry and every member of the Cabinet, the practice of the army, and the manifest best interests of the soldiers themselves. Pay a soldier some larre ‘arrear in these bonds and he Is apt either to retain them or send them home, where they will fetch their pa’ value in currency, at least, and also draw interest; w'aile the same man paid off in ten or twenty dollar bills, and exposed to the temptations of a camp, is only too apt to squander in some few days of riot, winding up tn the guard house, the earnings of many months of patient toil, self-sacri- fice and courage. Allusion is made to the fact “that a Norfolk bank, whose securities were leas than $100,000 in amount, was entrusted by the manipulations of paymasters”—t. ¢. (from the context), by Colonel Binney, who was Chief Paymaster—“with seven million dollars of government money ;” and the conclusion is drawn from this that ‘‘cor- ruption of the most extensive character is evident in that simple statement.’ Now what are the facts? The bank in question is the regularly appointed depositary and fiscal agent of the government, and has given all the security required by law for that position. Tho Sub- "roasurer of New York gives but $200,000 security though often with $20,000,000 under his control; an¢ Colonel Binney himeelf, as Chief Paymaster of a cepart- ment. and often with from three to five millions in his keeping, was never asked to give bonds to any higher amount than $10,000—the usual security, I believe, for army paymasters. It is not the amount of security, but the character of men, that must be relied upon; and ‘going to those in Massachusetts who have known the Colonel and his family the longest the best assurance will be found that neither the government nor our soldiers stand in any danger from his actions. It was his duty, under the paragraph of army regula- tions before referred to (article XLL), to déposit. his funds pres vy in thebank he did so ugo; nor had ha any choies in the premises. ‘That bank had been select: ed by the government for this very purpose; nor did it pay, nor agree to pay to Colonel Binney, nor has it ever paid him, nor thonght of paying him, any traction of the one half of one per cent which was allowed to Jay Cooke & Co, for “flouting off the seven-thirty loan.” Why should it pay him for performing a duty which he had no means of avoiding? Or with what justice can he be held responsible if the often ignorant soldiers to whom these bonds were paid out subsequently suffered them- selves to be mulcted im two, three or four per cent dis- count by the sutlers, secession clam discounters and eamp followers, who now Mterally swarm and” riot through the streets of Richmond’ ould the men--who were so eager to squander their money as to endure the discount have been any more Ikely to have kept it if paid to them in the form of currency, for which they could have got change over the counter of every barroom or in the poriors of the vast bagnio which Richmond may be said to have become? The fact is that this whole clamor about ‘frauds in the Pay Department of Virginia’ arises in great part from a conspiracy in which certain government officials (not in the Pay Department) and others are engaged to jlackmail certain of the national banks which are un- doubtedly making much money, hough legitimately, by their services in connection with the paying of ‘our troops. Of this conspiracy you may have evidence in the despatches similar to your own gent to other papers, and apparently cooked up to suit all palates—that pub- lished in the Tribune of the 30th, charging Mr. Coles, President of the First National Bank of Norfoik, with being a “notorious secessionist” ‘This doubtless, it was thought, would damn him in the eyes of the Tribune editors; while in fact Mr. Coles has ever been, from the first outbreak of the war, one of the most consistently loyal and devoted Unionists to be found in Virginia, and ‘as such will be certified to by all the present authorities of that State; altuough it 18 true that, in the first years of the war, he was probably more in favor of “universal emancipation and ne; soldiers” than was the late President Lincoln at that time, If any of the subordinates of Colonel Binney have done wrong let them be held to their just responsibility, and no onewill be more glad than the writer of this letter. If there have been “forgeries, frauds and villa- nies’ in the Pay Department we know Major General B. W. Brice, our Paymaster General, quite well enough to state that no officer more quick in the detection of irreg- ularity, or more inexorable in its punishment, can be found in the service. Colonel Binney’s ‘‘arrest,” to which allusion has been made, was simply the usual routine order given to every officer agninst whom any el has been preferred, that he shall appear before the chief officer of his co and report for orders or trial Colone! Binney aid. 80 Teport to General Brice, and was at once dim! sed oma brief fur’ his fa matic a furlough he is setts, Thnk you war this yet just a mariinet as General Brice would have a “Jenkins in the army"—the author of an “outrageous swindle eweiving, millions,’ and the other sensation headings of the Richmond correspondent, who has been made the vehicle by designing knaves for the promulga- tion of these infamous slanders? 1 think not, and I forther think it will yet be found that this organized clamor is part of a conspiracy indirectly aimed for the removal of General Brice; and which also, in another branch, has the removal of Surgeon General Joseph K. Barnes as one of its prominent objects. AN EX-OFFICER. Card from the C ler of the First tional Bank of Richmond. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. Finet Nationat Baxk oF Rrowsonn, Ricumonp, Va., August 30, 1865. } The article in your paper of the 28th instant reflecting upon all the national banks of this city as being in com- plicity with the paymastere of this department in pay- ing soldiers seven-thirty notes, and thereby realizing large discounts, is totally incorrect so far as this bank is concerned. We never purchased, sold or exchanged, directly or indirectly, seven-thirty poves with any pay- master. We never bought seven thirties from seid poe the New York rates, and now take them at p them. You are equally in error as to the magnitude of the de. posite of paymasiers in the banks in this city. Colonel Bioney bever kept an vant in thie bank, bis head. quarters being at Norfolk. Colonel Stan’ who keepe his account in this bank, never had an average balance above seventy-six thousand dollars, and the average balance of all the paymasters who keep their accounts in this bank has not exceeded one hundred and fifty four thousand dollara. You are also equally in error in your statement as to “a quarrel between the national banks here and those at Norfolk,” and as to the capital of the banks in this city, which bas been largely increased since their organiza tion. Your article, therefore, locating Colone! Binney’s transactions here, and your injurious comments thereon, are calculated to do this bank and its business great injus- tice, and I am er will readily ir the wrong as far as you can, the papers which have copied or made extracts from your injurious Comments wii), in Justice to this bank, copy this letter. be. trom have addressed a letter to the Paymaster General and~ requested that he will have the accounts of the pay. masters kept with this bank examined.

Willie Curtis, aged four, 18, supposed to be hurt inter. nally, as he seems a suiler geeat pain, but no marks’ of injury are visible, Mr. Curtis himself wos badly bruised; but with such a housefull of sn@erera cf course does not notice his own injuries, AIL sis chikiren, we lcarn, are doing well. Miss Mary Rittenhonse, aged twelve years, had her right arm bra@&cen above the elbow. Hor mother, Mrs. Rittenhouse, was badly bruised and sprained, but fortunately had no bones broken. Miss Carrie Hammond, aged eleven, daughter of County ‘Commissiener George Hammond, ‘bad several teeth — and was otherwise cut and bruised in the face, Charles A. Morgan, Esq., aufferol a bad sprain of the some of Its ligaments. ‘The family of Mr. A. Worley, corner of Chestnut and Exchange streets, all of whom were on the balcony, also ‘suffered badly from the accident, Miss Kate Worley, aged twelve years, was injured in- ternally, and complains of great pain in the breast and abdomen. Sallie Worley, aged seven years, was injured in a very sorious manner internally, It is feared that her injuries may prove fatal, Joseph Worley, aged six years, received a fearful cut or brnise over his left eye.“ It is so badly swollen that it is impossible to see whether the eye itself is injured or not, Jennie Worley, aged three years, received mternal in- Juries, but how seriously cannot be determined yet. Mr. Worley was on the balcony, and was badly bruised and cut. Mrs. Worley had just’stepped back from the balcony as it fell. Rey. A. B. Coleman, of Credit River, a Presbyterian clergyman, was standing in the door of bir. Curtis’ office. His shoulder was bruised, and one of the bones of his right leg broken below the ‘knee, P. Donovan, residing near the Market House, was struck on’the head, and the scalp peeled off a large por- tion of it, One or two others—strangers—whose names we could not learn, were also hurt slightly. All the sufferers were doing weil last night, we believe, although reports were in circulation that one or more were dead. The balcony was a heavy one, and was held up by four cast iron brackets, very lightly braced into the wali. The pieces which mainly s)pported the weight were only an inch square, They snapped short off, of course. was also on the balcony, and right ankle and rupture of The Germans. THE SINGER EXCURSIONS. The singers of the Arion ana Colonia societies of this city yesterday returned from Philadelphia, where they have been engaged since Monday in a series of festivi- ties with the Young Maennerchor, a prominent German. musical organization of that city, which, it is estimated, expended some ten thousand dollars to entertain the New York singers. These report that the festivities on this occasion, which took place at Engels & Wolf ’s Park, near Philadelphia, were arranged on a grand scale, the exercise of music and song being, of course, the main feature. The Young Maennerehor of Philadelphia is one of the champion socicties, which, at the prize singing at the Academy during the” Saencerfest in this city, secured its prize, and is one of the most prominent German musical _socie- ties in this country, counting a number of promi- nent and wealthy men among tts members. They were guests of the Colonia Society during the Saengerfest in this city. The New Yorkers during their sojourn were the guests of the Philadelphians, and were quartered at their expense at Ulmann’s hotel, where, after the festi- val at Engels & Wolf's farm on fuesday, a series of fes- tivities took place. Addresses were delivered by Messrs. Secklomann and Klamke, of the Colonia, and Mr. Hund, of the Arion. At the festival grounds, on Tuesday bar- leeque procession took place in illustration 0 New ‘York Saengerfest, and the Arions of this city admit that they we “beaten” by the Philadelphians in the way of arranging burlesques and grotesque fes- tivitics. As the next Saengeriest will come off in two yoors at Philadelphia, and the Philadelphians having Secured the prizes at the Sacngerfest in this city, the New York societies are already preparing themselves to distinguish themselves in a similar manner when the time comes. From Mr. William Steinway, a member of the Lieder- kranz, a letter was received yesterday giving an account of an excursion of a portion of the singers of the Liederkranz, who are on a visit to the Western Saengorfest, at Colambus, Obio, which commenced on Wednesday In Buffalo they were enteitained by the Buffalo Liedertafel, at Liedertafel Hall, where a series of festivities and musical exercises were arranged, and by the singers of the Liederkranz several double quartets were rendered. On Monday they ar- rived, with the members of the Rochester Maennerchor, at Cleveland, where they had an enthusiastic reception. The visitors were entertained by the Cleveland singers— the members of the Gesang Verein, of that city. At Cleveland a serics of musical exercises took place, under the direction of Mr. Paur, of this city; and on Tuesday the singers arrived at Columbus. The singers of the Liederkranz are expected to return to-day and to-morrow. By Mr. Geilfuss, the nding secretary of the Sacngerfest ‘x 2 of the German musical societies of this clty, the following telegram was sent to the singers at Columbus, in the name of the New York societies :— “The delegation of the Ninth Saengerfest of the singers of the Northern States, at New York, send greet- ings to their Western brethren at Columbus.’ Liederkranz has arranged a boat excursion to Dud- ley’s Grove on Sunday.
