the manner in which the ladies' hearts

high hill by means of stela, we found
ourselves on a nice street leading to the
business portion of the place. A large
town hall stands in the centre of a large
circle, with a beautiful street all around
it. Our first move was towards the

rather ludiceous error of mistaking Mr.

cooly received by that official, Mr. Cul -

young ladies. We were not mistaken
in our man, for oh presentation Of our

there is much to be seen by those to

phants" under the vigilant care of
trained keepers, meandered over the
grounds, and a short exhibition of
"blanket -tossing" was given. A "coun-
try dance" was also indulged in by the
men, the ladies being represented by
coatlesa volunteers, and the manner in
which the principals balanced,"'passed up
the centre, and down again, and
"swung their chickens," as one caller
gmphimilly termed it, elicited burets of
merriment front the onlookers. 'Excel-
lent refreshments had been provided at
the marquee for the guests, but the
number being so large, it was decided to
enlist waiters into the service, and deal
out the viands in true picnic style.
This was done, and the manner in which
the officers " acquitted themselves won
praise from one and all who accepted
their hospitality. Shorty before sun-
down the gathering beTan to disperse,
but not until the officers had been thank-

are placed at the foot of Attrill's hill,
two being arranged for shooting at 200
yards' range, and the other at 400 yards.
Considerable interest is taken by tho
different companies in the competition,
and the tiags at the "butts" are closely
scanned by the marksmen to see whether
an "outer a "magpie" a "centre" or a

Generar Luard, was a success. After
the men had formed, the general salute
was the first proceeding, and the inspec-
tion of the arms, accoutrements and
clothing of the men was then proceeded
with, the General and staff passing down
the centre and up the rear of each com-
pany. The hand then struck up and the
Battalion marched past by company. A
series of light infantry manoeuvres was
next indulged in, wherein considerable
steadiness was evinced by the men.
Twenty eounds of blank ammunition per
man had been served out, and the Bat-
talion was tested in volley firing, after
which a feigned attack was made on the
nridge by the force. After the skirm-
isher; had been thrown out, the attack
was made on the bridge by the main
body and it was captured. At the
close of the sham -fight the Battalion was
drawn up in position, and
of the Battalion are from 7. o'clock to
8 a. at which time the men are dis-
missed for breakfast; from 10 a.m., until
noon, when intermission for refresh-
ments is again indulged in; and front 2
o'clock to 4 pm, when they are dismiss-
ed and seek recreation until the "supper
bugle" sounds at 6 o'clock.
THR PARADE FOR DIVINE SIRVIVE
on Sunday was largely attended, the
majority of the Battalion availing them-
selves of the opportunity afforded them
of worshipping at the church of their
choice. Headed by the band, playing
martial airs, they proceeded from the
camp to St. Peter's Church, thence to the
Episcopalian and Methodist churches,
at each of which a contingent was left,
after which the remainder, with the
bend, proceeded to Knox church on
East street. After service, the different
church parties, reformed on the Court
House Square and marched back to the
camp to the air of several lively quick-
steps. The musio and the military pro-
cession ou the Sabbath created a com-
motion among some of the "unco guid,"
but the men looked so neat and clean in
their bright uniforms, stepped so nicely
to the inusic, and behaved themselves
in so decorous a manner at worship,
that even the most straightlaced admitted
that it was better for them to have the
opportunity afforded them of marching distance between theen and the marquee
to church, than to have remained idling as the camping ground would pi emit

ADDRESSED AS FOLLOWS BY GRN. LI'ARD:
Officersrad men of the :Llrel Battalion.
Doubtless you have already discovered
that it is impossible to become trained
soldiers in twelve days' drill. You have
yet much to learn, although you have ex-
hibited an evident willingness to attend
to your drill and other duties. The army
is a profession in itself, and requires
writhe, if not years .4 careful training
before perfection is attained. I am niuch
pleased with what I have seen of the
Battalion, and have heard most favorable
accounts of the behavior of the men
while in camp. I will have great pleas-
ure in submitting a favorable report in
reference to the 3.3rd Huron Battalion.
I have nothing further to say to you.

bronchitis, an aged and infirm fiddle,

other aids to hormony, too numerous to

the delectation of the rank and hle, the
procession was heeded toward the officers

and gave melody until a 116 bill made its
