V. The General embraces the first occa-
sion 10 congratulate the officers and soldiers of
the organized Militia of the Fifth Brigade on
the liberal efforts made by the State to inau-
gura.e an efficient system of military nstruc

use of arms, and the art of war. and yield a
cheerful obedience to all lawful orders and reg
uations, which is indispensable to military dis
cipline
BY order Big. Gen. J. BIDWELL.
JoHN HILL, \. A. A General
1t was expected that Governor Stanford and
Adjutant General Kibbe, and other members
of the Governors staff, would review General
Bidwells command on Wednesday, the last
day of their encampment.
The Press is well represented, as it always
is in military matters. D. f. Gordon, Of the
Trinity Journal, is on the Staff as Major De
Witt Hubbell, Orderly; C. E. Fisher, of the
Beacon, high private in Co. B Bishop, Of the
Butte Record, Sergeant in Co. \; Hackett,
of the Yreka Union, high private in Co. D
Jones, of the Douglas City Gazette, musician,
and high private in Co. II :; Potter, formerly
of the Independent Office, high private in Co. B

are glad 10 hear this good report from their
favorite company. We always thought they
would make good soldiers, should they ever be
called upon to take the field. 1t would appear
from the following bill of the fare furnished at
the camp, that the Guards find time for a little
fun, amid the daily duties as ordered by their
General. 1t would be fair to presume. were
they called into actual service, and placed in
an enemys country, instead of occupying the
peaceful Red Banks of a ueighboriug county,
that poultry yards would enable them to pub
llsh bill of fare slightly differing from the
following which we find in the Beacon:
THE ORoyILLE CoxPANY-Ths military
company. it is generally conceded, are entitled
to the belt " for superiority in some things
pertaining to the drill. They certainly do
comparatively good marching, and in the num-
Der present are second at the camp. Orovil-
laus will be glad TO learn that they fare
sumptuously every day as may be seen from
the following
