to Miss Tillie Russell, Mrs. Holmes Conrad, Or Mrs. Marshall Willis, Committee Ashby Memorial Association, Winchester, Va. The reunion of the Richmond howitzers, that splendid corps of artillery, whose guns were heard on well nigh every field from Big Bethel to Appomattox, came off on the 13th of December, the anniversary of the battle of Fredericksburg, and was a really magnificent affair. The banquet, served in the best style of the St. Claire hotel, and presided over by Judge George L. Christian, was really superb, and was heartily enjoyed by all present. The speeches of W. J. Hardy, of New York, the orator of the evening, and Leigh Robinson, Esq., of Washington, O. G. Clay, Jr., Captain Henry Hudnall, and Rev. Dr. J. B. Hawthorne of Richmond, who responded to the regular toasts, and of Rev. G. W. Dame, of Baltimore, and Carlton McCarthy, Esq., of Richmond, who responded to volunteer toasts, were all admirable, and were well worth preserving in permanent form. We expec

The constitution provides that members of the Executive Committee shall reside in Virginia, in order to have them convenient to the headquarters of the Society; but the vice-presidents of the several States, and, indeed, any individual members of the Society, would always be welcomed to the meetings of the Executive Committee, as well as to the general meetings of the Society. The committee will have a meeting early in January--due notice of time will be given — at which various matters of interest to the future plans and work of the Society will be discussed and acted upon. Our printers have been among the most careful and accurate we have ever known, and we have been seldom called on to correct typographical errors, but the chirogrophy of our friend Judge John F. Lay is none too plain, and in his sketch of the Powhatan Troop, in our last number, our types changed the gallant and lamented Lieutenant John Wm. Maury into Menoboy, of whom the dashing troopers never heard.

In that event it may be practicable to signalize the next decoration day, June 6, 1881, the nineteenth anniversary of General Ashby's death, by consecrating this crowning honor to one who by word, life and death, taught us how to keep the lamp of chivalry alight in hearts of gold.
