CAN'T DESNrsoN, ONO, juno 20, 1861.
FRIEND BAILEY Having been visiting the mill
tary cncampments in our State, enjoying the luxu-
rics of camp life, and thinking that sketch Of life
| in the camp mightbc interesting to the readers of
| Tie JoUnSAL, thought would write. Last night
Il rainel very hard and the movements Of pcdcstri
/ ans are somewhat restrained. ] came to Cunp
/ Jackson (ncar Columbus in company with Capt.
/ Ciowcll of Fremont, with whom some 30 OF our
/ Wood county boys are enlisted. Camp jackson is /
pleasantly situated some four miles west Of Colum
bus On the national road. This camp is destined
entirely for thrco years men. The mon are, physic-
ally speaking, n splendid looking lot Of men. Sew
crtl new regiments, the 23l, 2ih, 25th and 18th,
were formed while was there. There was some
dissatisfaction caused by the Governors appointing
the rcpimon.a oniccrs-thc soldiers having no voice
in their selection. This denial Of pol ular soycr-
ciqhty was not rrlishcd by Our citizen soldieiy. The
23d regiment was formed Of companies from North
oin Ohio and all its CliccIs were appointed from
Cincinnati. This little oversight of His EXccllcn
cy gave rise TO somi impromptu indignation meet
ings Nctthcre is more bad feeling manifested here
in Camp Dennison where they elect officers than IN
, Camp Jackson. Considerable confusion exists here
arising from Il number Of causes. The most prom
iucnt is mastering the three years men in and the
three months men out of the service. Another reason
assign I'd is the inticicncy atCoumbus. [Our cor
rcspondc 1t probably forgcs that the State auhoi-
ties nave nothing ai all to do with Camp Dcnnson
, whatcycrl Another cause the disappointed office
I seekers have seen som, figuring and caucusing
| among mon in civil life but clec.ioncerng here
q surposscs anything ever Witnessed. 1t "ou-llcr-
, ols I,rod." Many men have enlisted for three
months, thinking thereby to make political capital
