Soldiers love pets in camp. Here are two stories from Washington paper:
 "The oldest pets we have yet seen were two bears, which the Twelfth Maine regiment, of the Nineteenth corps, led through the city recently. These bears were brought all the way from Louisiana, and have been in several lights. They have become perfectly tame nnd tractabIe, and march along at the head of the band, with an air that indicates they feel Themselves veteran soldiers of the bruin> or der, and that they have character to sustain.
 IA. regiment that passed through some days sgo. had with it mountain goat, cap tured also in 1scsisiana, and which has been in several battles and skirmishes. In one of the latter he was seriously wounded, but by careful nursing he got well"
