Incidents of Camp Life During the War
for the Union-No. l.
While stationed at Fortress-Monroe Va. during
the summer of 81, we were brought under the strict
diseinline OF Major General W, well known
throughout the army as a rigid stickler for form ana
ceremony, and thoroughly imbued with the idea,
that the nearer the soldier could be drilled into a
machine the better it made him. 1t was his
custom to be present at all parade ceremonies, and
by personal examination to satisfy himself that in
regard to dress and equipment, the regulations
were fully complied with.
Negligence on the part of the private or nom
conn., brought upon the commissioned officers his
sbarpest rebukes, and if the officer was guilty Of
anv irregularities in dress or short comings in drill,
dire was the rage of the aged martinez, and fierce
his explosions of wrath. His favorite recreation lay
in attending the daily brigade Guard mountings''
on the parade ground of the fort, where, surrounded
by his staff, he would search out, and reprove, any
and every little fault or inadyertance, and with q
few words, chosen more on account of their force
than their elegance, cover the offender with con-
fusion and dismay.
1t can be seen that, under the circumstances, those
who were on the list Of s. officers for duty with
Brigade Guard were much exercised in mind, in
regard to correctness Of costume, and precision of
drill, as they were the 8 observed of all Observers
To their dismay, then. the senior captains were

WASHINGTON. May 15-Whiie Il Is known that a
majority of the Senator'S are la favor Of the ratiGca-
ton of the Treaty OF Washington as a measure Of
peace. some Of them will propose amendments to
several provisions which they consider not su1i-
GENTLY plain. and which, without modification. may
lead TO dissatisfaction I'm future. One of the obiec-
tons against the Treaty is that the san Juan qles-
ton is to be submitted to the arbitration Of the
Emperor OF Germany. The recent report OF his in
disposition-he being an old man-suggests that.
in the event of bis death. his son Frederick William
would succeed TO the throne and thus take the
place OF his father as arbitrator, should the ques-
ton not be settled during the present Emperor
life. This arbitration is considered unfortunate, in
view of the fact that the Prince having married
Victoria Adelaide. daughter 81 the Qneen Of Eng
land. might therefore be- iDhuenced 10 Che determi-
nation OF the question by bis family eppnections.
