MARCH THROUGH LEXINGTON.
Well, by o'clock We were ready to re-
sumo our march. The streets were crowd
ed by the curious as we passed through
them. One old negro wench says 20,
what bright swords God bless their
bright swords" At last we reached
OUR NEW CAMP,
Which is situated in the trotting grounds,
adjoining the fair grounds. II is a very
pretty place for a camp. Our tents are
placed in the centre of fine walnut grove,
in front of them is beautiful plain covered
ed with nice green sod, making the
incest kind of drill grounds. There is a
nice stream of water running through the
camp, coming, they tell me, from small
lake just back over the hill out of sight.
The water has been brought in pnrposely
for watering the ground.
A GRAND SIGHT.
About midnight of our first night in
camp, we were aroused by the alarm of
fire, and soon discovered that large build
ing occupied as a floral hall was on fire.
In few minutes it was all one sheet OF
flame. The building was estimated to
have cost from $4,000 to $4,000. 1t
was undoubtedly set on fire by secessionis,s
OUR REGIMENT

MISCELLANEOUS.
Now, boys and girls too, you like often
10 near lfoil Joui Soiuiet liieHuS, out you
do not like to write to them. Now if you
wish us TO write, you must let us hear from

idea of. The paymaster has not come
round yet, nor is there any hopes of his
coming; but the drill master has been
here, and drilled everything out of our
pockets, so it is with difficulty that we can
even pay the postage on our letters; so
friends give us a pleasant surprise BY find

the letters. If you Greet your letters TO
