he appcarsnt home, far away from tho din of
war, around the romantic aud classic region Of
his own native heath. We 10 not know

attends him in all his ex Iloits, but we do know
that hc is perfect pcrsoniication Of the hero
dis,ipliuarilu in camp. This Is a model in its
way, sui,t to the very letter Of war bIsi-, and
an iota exceeding for he has inauguratcd
molcs Of punishment Of ancient and modern in
ycn,ion, possessing much novelty. Among
them are the antique and long forgotten
"stucks"-a rude bench with a parallel beam,
upon which ro'chgs are cut to ALLOW tho ankle
Of the culprit to fit, who extend his legs there
in. These are secured s. an iron bar, that laps
uron the saan, aud the har secured by pad
lock; the whole anorling accommo ldtion to
some hal. dozen victims. The stocks are placed
upon the parade grounds, that the ,ulprit may
be the gazo Of all.
Another novelty is the dark dungcon--a
buiIHrg Of rough boards, 10 by 20 feet, Is i'ct
hish, perfectly lisht-tish' and divided into
compartm mcuts Of fonr rooms. These afford no
very pleasant receptacle for the soldier. To
these specimens OF punishment we may add
the ball anl chmn--sawius of wood and carry

Of scntincls-ill Of which, together with the
guard house, hold out sufficient terror against
all msuhorlination, The recruit, therefore,
finds himself at once when inside :hc high
fence that surrounds the whole cnclmpmont-

that this hysical defect is a source of much

A somewhat amusing ane1dole is told Of tho
General. On one OCCASION desiring an order
