NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION.-( THIS DAY.)

WIMBLEDON, MONDAY MOR!CING.

This morning, at a comparatively early hour,
the Camp was all bustle and activity, many of the
volunteers being stirring before the reveillee, which was
sounded at 6 o'clock, although no actual business of
the meeting was fixed to commence until 1 o'clock.
Tents were soon deserted, and it was an interesting
sight to witness the many recognitions and cor-
dial greetings between volunteers from different parts of
the kingdom, who had again met together to take their
share in the coming contests. It was a reunion of men
engaged in the same laudable purpose, and one of the
most friendly and pleasing character.
The improved sanitary arrangements provided this year
by the council were brought into requisition in a most ex-
tensive way this morning, and were fully appreciated.
There are at hand all the appliances and comforts of a gen-
tleman's home, and too much praise cannot be bestowed
upon Mr. Jennings for the way in which he has executed
the duty entrusted to him, of remedying &defect which has
hitherto, with justice, been complained of.
The assemblage at breakfast in Mr. Jennison's refresh-
ment saloon was the next event of the day, and the
bracing air of Wimbledon-common no doubt assisted them
materially in doing justice to the ample fare that was pro-
vided.

On looking round the camp, as all appeared to have
tolerably well settled down in their quarters, it pre-
sented a finished aspect. Indeed, in some instances the
tents and approaches to them wore a very tasteful appear-
ance, flower gardens bad been improvised, and they almost
invited anyone to spend • week or two in camp life for
the purpose of enjoying the comforts which appear to
reign around.
The London Scottish have again displayed their large
flag with the rampant lion, which can be seen above the
rest from all parts of the common, whilst the entrance to
their chief marquee is ornamented with back-horns and
other national emblems.
The London Rifle Brigade also display • large flag bear.
ing the arms of the City of London, and they have secured
for their camp one of the finest sites to be found over the
whole common, it being situate on the top of " M`Donald
Heights," the plain studded with tents lying before them,
and in the distance a fine view of the Kingston-road, Kew
Gardens, Petersham, and bounded by the lofty trees of
Richmond Park.

The Victoria. have again occupied the valley, their
camp, which is pitched in a circular form, being sepa-
rated and enclosed, but where all is conducted with a
military regularity.
As the shooting commenced at so late an hour this day
we are unable to give any detail.
