the 26th. Particulars can be obtained on arrival at Springfield. As
the number of persons who can be accommodated in the special cars is
limited, it will be well to make application for ticket promptly.
There is a fine new steamer on the river carrying four hundred
persons, and arrangements have been made to charter this for a
beautiful sail of two hours at noon, on the 24th or 25th, at very
reasonable rates, if a sufficient number of applications for tickets
are received by Tuesday night the 23d.
For the Transportation Committee,
CHARLES D. REID, _Chairman_.
