THE NINTH REGIMENT

Thie fine Regiment, now in camp at Brat
teboro, is TO be mustered into the United
States service to-day, by Maj w Austine
u. S. A.
We had the pleasure Of visiting the regi-
ment in camp on Friday and Saturday last,
aud found them a noble-l1oking body Of men ;
in fact, we think the material Of the regiment
is better than that of any Of our infantry
regiments recruited for three years service.
Though having had, as yet, but little oppor-
tunity for drill they made a very respectable
appearance at their first dress parade on Fd-
day evening. Gov. Holbrook Adit. Gen.
Washburn and Quarteymaster Gen. Davis,
are warm in their praises Of the regiment.
The Burlington Company especially is No.
/. Brigade Surgeon Phelps who has bad
the duty Of inspecting them, informs US that
it is rare to find a company in better physique.
The regiment is armed with Austrian guns,
which are hardly equal TO the Enfield rifles in
durability or efficiency. The men are well
pleased with their camp, rations, &c. Quar-
termaster General Davis, who has the charge
Of feeding them, provides the very best Of
wholesome food for the boys His arrange
ments for cooking are admirable, much more
convenient than any we have seen, The
camp is named Camp Davis in honor OF
the Quartermaster General, and is deserv-
ed compliment to one whose services to the
State in his department since the commence
ment Of the war, have been exceedingly ardu-
Gus and most satisfactorily rendered.
We noticed in some Of the companies re-
cruited along the northern borders OF the
State, a mum Der Of British deserters who, with
their proficiency in company dill and tactics,
ar 49, al
The ol1rs of the Regiment have arrived, and
are beautiful piece of handiwork-an were
made in Boston, Under the direction Of Gen.
Davis. In point of finish and splendor of
design they are hardly to be eyceled
On the Fourth the regiment wa- drawn up
in line at noon, on the parade ground, when
national salute Of "a guns was fired under
the charge Of Col. S. NJ Waite of the Gov
ernor's Staf;-while the ex client drum
corps of the regiment, under the leadership
OF Drum Major Hardie, enthusiastically per
formed the soul-stirring national airs Of
" Star Spanglcd Banner Hail Columbia -
and " Yankee Doodle
