THE CAMP AT CHOBHAM COMMON.

During yesterday an enormous number of visitors in-
spected the camp. No evolution of any kind took place,
though the annual games of the household brigade pre-
vented the holiday folk from experiencing any loss. The
games, which comprised the usual humorous and athle-
tic sports, excited roars of laughter, and great interest
was evinced in the racing and jumping matches, which
were keen and closely contested.

The Blues, 19th Aitillery, Dragoons, and Coldstreams,
leave the camp this morning. The remainder start to-
morrow (Saturday.) It is not expected that the
whole will have cleared off before the middle of next
week.
