victory over their opponents.

PIIILA.DEL-PLIIA CITY ITEM.—The
Philadelphia City Item, enters upon it's
fortieth Volume to-day. It is ably edited
by Fitzgerald & Co., and is one of the best
family newspapers in the State. The ech
tors say in starting out with the new vol
ume that "they will leave nothing undone
to merit their continued patronage, As
heretofore, The City It em will unswerving
ly follow its thoroughly independent
course, always striving for the best ends
of humanity and justice. The various De
partments are in the hands of able mana
gers, and many novelties will shortly be
added. The remarkable success of The
City Item during the last year convinces
us that we are fully warranted in making
additional improvements."
UNION RALLY.—The Zouavcs turned
out in full force to attend the Union
meeting at Marietta, on Thursday eve
ning last. They paraded our streets in
full uniform, with torches trimmed and
burning, and headed by the Columbia
Cornet Band. They made a decidedly
handsome appearance as they paraded
down Locust street and up Front to the
Canal Basin, where they tuok a boat for
Marietta. The meeting was large and
enthusiastic; stirring speeches were made
by General J. W. Fisher, Maj. Reinoehl,
and others. We regret to say, that
during the evening a disturbance oc
curred, when some "bushwackers" fired
into the Zouaves, wounding some five or
six persons. John Torbert and James
McDivitt, citizens, both of this place,
were wounded severely about the head
and neck. Mr. McDevitt, we believe,
belongs to the opposite party. We did
not learn the particulars as to what
caused the disturbance.
Deaths and ;%larri ages are published in thi4 par.
