The expressivefpbrase on the monument is, "It is over, alluding to the war and its antagonisms.

The order of exercises was ver. impressive. Major-General Nelson Cross presided. His opening remarks ore happy, and the hoys np- liaudeu their old commander heartily, 'omrado James N. Willis, of our Dis-trict Attorneys otlioe, read many letters of regret from survivors who could not attend.

A pretty incident was tho unveiling of the monument by Mary Mnckm, the wifo of one of the veterans. As sho raised tbs Hag from the granite baft. tho audience burst iuto loud and prolonged cheers. Captain William II Partridge transferred the monument to the Gettysburg Battlefield Association, which was received in their hohalf by M. Krauth, the seoretary of that organisation.

The oration of tho Rev. Thomas K. Beecher. of Elmira (brother of the Rev. IJeury Ward Beecher), was listened to with deep iiRercst.

The benediction was followed by the decoration of tho monument with national flags and corps badges, when tho Dox-ology wag sung. Interspersed with tho exer oiscs was music and singing iu chorus, having a fine etleot. Altogether tho occasion wa ono that Brooklyn, through its representative sol-diary, has reasou to bo proud of. Large numbers of veterans have arrived to-day and additional gray coats nro seen in the streets. here is a pleasant fraternization.

General James Longstreot lias been carried all over tho Union battle ground, lie spoke on Sunday at Remolds Grove and yesterday at Culp Hill. The i'nion soldiers have given him grips enough to make his arm sore. Tho union of the "Blue and the which took place at the National where tho Union soldiers are buried, war a grand meet ing. It pussed oil with eclat. General Daniel E.

In those piping duva of peace tho old veterans arc not so prouo to eck the shelter of 'shelter tents or "dog terns." They much prefer to eat their regular meals at a regular table.
