Capt r. c. Gibson's company received
their uniforms on Saturday, and appeared
on parade with theis new dress in the
even ne. This company has made rapid
Improvements since their arrival at Camp
Hardin, by the thorough drill of their ex-
celient captain, and receives 4 great deal
of praise from the spectators. The same
may be said of the other Ottawa company,
under Capt VIM. l. Gibson.
The Ottawa companies also received on
Saturday couple OF boxes filled with edi-
bles, for u good Sunday dinner for them
which the people eff Ottawa had the kind

There was divine service yesterday in q
