Massachusetts Responds

BOSTON, May 26 – The Massachusetts 32d, Col Parker, left for Washington this evening.  The old 1st light battery, Capt. Jones leaves to-morrow morning.  Over three thousand troops appeared on the Common this noon ready for service, and the number will be greatly augmented by arrivals to-morrow.
