We published yesterday a programme of the exercises, which will surely be impressive and worthy of the noble cause they are intended to honor. The custom of calling to mind and honoring the sacrifices of those who lost their lives in the recent struggle in this country, needs no excuse.

Judging from the sports on Monday, and the faithful training of the candidates for the Mott Haven team, we may predict unusually interesting sports.
