On the 22nd, in honor of the day, the Commandery held a public meeting in the evening in Granite Hall. The members of the Legislature with their ladies, citizens of Augusta and of many places in Maine with their ladies, crowded the hall. The Governor as Commander, and the other members of the Commandery, were seated on the platform in full uniform. Brevet Brigadier General John Marshall Brown de- livered the address, presenting as a theme worthy of the occasion a consideration of the means of m...aintaining a military establish- ment in time of peace — a theme demanding attention at the present time with even more urgency than at the first of our Commandery's public assemblies. Existing deficiencies were enumerated, and needed reforms were suggested. The speaker's insistence upon the right of a State to the military service of its able bodied citizens in times of emergency, and without regard to wealth or standing, emphasized the obligations of citizenship in terms with which we have been made familiar in these later days, with nearly all Europe in arms, and war clouds hanging heavily over our Mexican border.
