This afternoon the eleven will start for Springfield. They will leave Boston by the Boston and Albany road on the four o'clock train, reaching their destination at about seven o'clock. They will stay at Mrs. Gardner's over night. The following men will go down: Cumnock (captain), Upton, Finlay, Cranston, P. Trafford, Newell, Hallowell, Dean, Corbelt, Lake, B. Trafford, Mason, Alward, Shaw, Bangs, Shea, Crosby, Heard, Harding, Fearing, Lee, Sherwin, Blanchard, Frothingham.

The barge will leave Leavitt and Peirce's at quarter before three sharp. There is always a large crowd to cheer the eleven on its departure, and as the time is a convenient one, there will probably be many at the starting place this afternoon.
