MEssRs. EDIToRs Having been until the
past nine months, for fifteen years resident Of
Kenosha, I take the liberty of expressing my
enthusiasm at the go-aheadative spirit the Ke-
nosha ladies exhibit. Whatever they undertake
is never done at halves, as their visit to Camp
Scott yesterday viii testify. The good things
they brought by way of ea'ables, to the Keno
sha company, is only one Of the numerous ex-
hibitions Of their benevolent qualities. In only
one instance did we notice seclusive group,as
we thought, somewhat selhshly enjoying them
selves. Still they even might, at the very time,
have representative of the basket with groan-
ing contents, relieving itself by distribution
among the boys. Who knows? But the ma
jority were dispensing the pastries, (Which they
know how to get up as well as any other Ia
dies) amid the company. One lady remarked
to me 80, that She had not reserved for her
self enoughuo salty the cravings of nature. as
it gave her so much pleasure to see the compa-
ny enj y it," A couple of the "boys" remard
ed that the only drawback to their complete
pleasure was, that the other companies who
were Just as deserving and perhaps little more
so, were not enjoying themselve in the same
way The drill, which usually comes off A. NJ.
was postponed until p. NJ and the pleasure, as
well as surprise, expressed by the visitors in
seeing such perfect disciplin acquired in SO short
a time, amply repaid the officers for this act of
condensation. The Rev. Mr. MATHEWS, of
the Congregational Church, who made enc of
the party, expressed himself in the most enthu-
siastc terms, saying: "That his greatest wish
was that he was one of the regiment
