WAR MATTERS.
rHrnrY.rIrrH onto REGIMENT.


This command, under Colonel Vandervier,
lately stationed at Cynthiana, KY, have inn
pressed the people there very favorably with
their good conduct and soldierly bearing.
We take the following extract from letter
published in the Gazette, and written from
Paris-the regiment having moved from
Cynthiana:
1--WE are now encamped about one mile
west Of Paris, on the grounds of the Bourbon
County Agricultural Society, beautiful
situation, which, with the fne buildings and
amble accommodations, speaks in the highest
terms of praise of the progress and civiliza-
tion OF the surrounding commnnity.
Although the day has been quite cool for
the season, q large number of visitors, both
male and female, were in camp, who, by
their cheerful manner, their words OF appro-
baton, and friendly intercourse, gave evil
dence of the strongly predominant Union
feeling in this region.
allow long we will remain here, like all
other things in times like these, is very un-
certain hence shall not make even pre-
sumption of the length of our stay.
before leaving Camp Fraser yesterday we
had q fine silk flag presented us by the oiti-
zens of Harrison County.
1.-THE presentation speech was delivered by
Judge Trimble, prominent lawyer of Gym
thiana, and responded to in behalf Of the
PERSONAL.
Colonel Charles A. De Villiers, of the
Eleventh Ohio Regiment, who was captured
with Colonels Woodruff and Neff, and SUBJ
sequently made his escape from Richmond,
was in the city yesterday. He has Just re-
turned from visit to his family in Wiscon-
sin, and is now on his way to join his regi'

The First Ohio Regiment, organized near
Dayton, under Colonel A. Med. McCook-

muskets," the flank companies with Enfield
rifles.

ment is filling up rapidly and will soon be

FIFTY SECOND REGIMENT.

| hundred men, and from the energy displayed
by Colonel Sargent, we doubt not, it will
soon have the requisite number. The mel
