The ENcaMPMEsT. On Tuesday last.
the scene at Scamp Robinson, was one Of unusuaI
interest to those who participated in It, and will
long be remembered by our volunteers, as one Of
the most pleasant entertainments they ever parti
cipated in. During the morning, the soldiers were
~ busy as bees. preparing for the grand ball at
night; and throughout the day. the arrival Of each
train, added largely to the already immense as
semblage OF ladies and gentlemep who had gath.

the members Of the Richmond City Council, with
other invited guests, psrtook of a collation., pre-
pared by the officers Of the regiment and at night
the ball came of. We were not present on the oc-
casion, but learn from friends that it was the
grsndest affair of the kind ever witnessed in Ham
over. Ashland Hotel was brilliantly lighted with
gas, adding greatly to the effect produced by the
lovely faces, sparkling eyes and fairy orms OF the
scores of besusful dafnsels they whired through
the gddy waltz, or participated in the no less ex-
citing cotillon.
AT 10 O'Clock yesterday morning, the regiment
struck its tents, TO return to the city, every men,

in encaDpment To Coils. August and Carey great
credit is due for the admirable arrangements of
the whole affair, and for the care they exhibited
for the health and the comfort of the men under
them. Not only have they succeeded in inducing
the volunteers TO seek recreation for few DAYS
but by regular drills have added materially to the
efficiency of each company In their command.
