Government powder house, at the edge Of a beau
tiful piece Ofwoods, where they have abundance of
cool shade and plenty of fine cold spring water.
They are all contented and happy, plenty to eat,
drink, and wear. They voluntarily marched cut

asking or thinking about the line, with the ex-
ceptiOn Of three men, who were sent back imme-
diately by Capt. r. to do duty the rest Of their
time at their quarters In town. The officers are
quartered In neat little cottage the hill, very
