able. We have heard no complaint
whatever of its men, and both officers
and priyates have been so constantly
engaged in drilling that our citizens
have seen very little of them. Col.
Gill, in particular, has scarcely been
in the city sidce his regiment went in
to camp, so devoted has he been to
his work. He has transformed himself
and his men into admirable soldiers,
as was shown by the excellent manner
in which he directed and they execu>
Ted various complicated maneuvers
yesterday.
The regiment is equipped with KNAPP
sacks, haversacks and canteens-ev-
erything except tents. They have re-

1t will be seen that this is chiefly
made up from Jefferson and Dodge
Counties, with representation from
Dane. 1t numbers about $50 men.
And thus, nearly 1000 more OF our
best men go from us to do and to suf-
fer for their country, in the endeavor
to crush out the rebellion created by
southern demagogues and slave hol-
ders, against the best government the
world ever saw. God grant them sue
cess, and a speedy and safe return to
peaceful homes.-Mad5Son journal.
