9th REGIMEN

The Review Of this Regiment on Fri
day ths 10th instant was truly aproud dis
play ior the young comfy vi Holiness
when we consider tina, the previous day
Was rainy and clustering, and that the
day for perade was cold aud disagreeab.e,
We may we'll DO st OF the patriotism
and military spirit Of our citizens. The
alignment counted upwards Of four hun
dred men, and the streets were honored
with the presence of near 300 more from
The remo'cst parts of of the county.
AT one o'clock, the Company COM
manded by Captain Taylor, csc ,rted the
Governor and stall TO the field Of Review.
The dldrrent companies displayed the
utmost Willingness to conform like men
ana soldiers to the orders Of their com.
Inander-ln.chicf. The evolution piyen
out were somewhat intricate and stale, but
we were glad to perceive III, readiness
with which they were all performed by
the Regiment.
The organization Of The 9th Reoi-
men, and ITS present good p, 'siton, is
attributable alone to the EXERT, ms used BY
A.G. Otey, Colonel commant.n,. Two
years ago It was impossible to get the
Regiment together; now itcan be peraded
al two days no ice, and should the State
be involved, hundreds gallant volunteers
would DC found to rush to the banner of its
defence from the 9Th Regiment. 1t is
100 much the fashion of the day to co Ter
praise upon those who wear the most olit.
'eiI"g trappings, and from variety o,
remarks Tint have been made. / nm dis,

'eo, ana boldly ass'rt that Gov. M'Nnu|
a, d SUIT were more honored by the 9th
heglment than the Regiment Ly me
"dashy dolnss" ofthe Governors Staff
1t is hoped that the companies will all
improve Tor the future. Captain Tay!or's
company behaved with b, coming sp,rit
and SO ana that ofC,p plain Mayo. All the
companies were full, bit more paths
should be taken to have the sui uaIton sta.
tons filled, and then straight lines and
regular marching v i'll lie common. The
lexington Guard should PR coed ut once
10 uniform themselves and received their
arms and accoutrements. The success
Of the last Regiment parade in Holmes
County, think should animate our CHI.
zens with little more Of that spirit which
made Washington beloved, Marion irwin.
