It the sam, place we were stationed, when we first

Jur camp Is situated some four or hve miles out

guard for said Fort s detailed from our regiment
Also, the line Of pckets for three miles in front are
lternitcly detailed from the One Hundrrdth Ohio
md 22d Wisconsin, which is in the same brigade
"a with us, Col. Swayne acting Brigader- Cen
sral.
BY the way, we had a brigade review, u don't you
emember the splendid reviews last fall ON the
Potom,c y last evening. At half-past three the
regiment was called out, and marched over mile,
il search of a "level place on which to hold the
review, and finally they found field, which would
ave been styled slightly hilly and rolling in Wood
county, yet for Kentucky, it was quite plane.
We were formed in line Of battle, and marched in
column, for three four hours, and returned home
ly the light Of the moon, as tired as wished to

If the feelings and purpose of our army.
Our men are mostly in excellent health, six or
seven being oa the sick list in camp with inferior
liseascs, and about the same number in the hospi-
al in C0yington and. Cincinnati. Two have died
,ince we entered Kentucky 49, Henry Long and
Abraham Morrison both, | believe, of Typhoid
Fever. This does not look very nattering, yety

Oho, and three companies of the GOTH OHIO, COM
mandcd by the Lieut. Col. of the latter, started on
| march down the pike, guarding wagon train.
The place they took the provisions was about
twenty mil IS from camp, yet they made the march
there and back by saturday evening about seven.
rnc next day quite IN addition was made 10 the
sick list.
Our officers are all well liked by the boys. There
Is a rumor that our Captain is 10 be promoted to a
