Again should be said that the encampment bril-
liant throughout for there but few who
any complaints to make except those outsiders who went
upon the ground for the purpose Of making little
cash from vsers and may have been disappointed The
Office Of Advocate General sinecure, charges to
warrant court martial having been preferred against
any officer private during the entire three days duty
The accidents have been few the arrests for turbulence
and disorderly conduct almost unknown, and in every
respect has been military display highly crcdable
the militia Of Massachusetts and to all who had the charge
Of carrying the details If Napoleon Ill had larger
number OF troops under his command during the late
Partisan military fete, he certainly did command
worthy orderly body of citizen sodery than his
Excellency Governor Banks has during the past three
days in Camp Massachusetts
