THE MUsrEE AZ GROSS RoADg.

The battalion muster at Cross Roads on
last Saturday consisted of the companies Of
Capts. J. l.. Br. Il, r. r. Beatty, A. N.
Saunders and VIM. S. Hall, of the Western
Regiment, which were commanded by the
regimental officers, consisting of Col. w.
E. Walters, Lieut. Col. J. Il. g. Jones and
Maj. Elias MCGEE, accompanied by their
staff officers, and Maj. ]. N. Vandiver, OF
the Eastern Regiment. The companies
were we'll attended. and the parade proved
to be very great SUCCESS. The officers and
men show great proficiency, and the "nm-
panies went through the various move
ments with skill which would have been
creditable to men with double their prac-
tice. After the drilling was over, the con-
course of people which probably numbered
one thousand, -ssembled by the Church,
and were addressed upon the political situa-
ton by Messrs. John b. Moore. T. B. Muir
ray, John Wilson, E. NJ. Rucker, B. r.
Crayton and w. E. Walters. Gen. w. w.
pHumplireys presided over the meeting, and
appropriated introduced the speakers, who
made short and pointed speeches, at the
conclusion of which dinner was announced,
and the crowd gathered in small parties
around the numerous baskets of good things
which had beenprovided to revive the inner
man, and from the hearty appetites of
which they gave evidence. we can safely
testify that the repast was both abundant
and tempting. In the afternoon, the young
| people gathered at Mr.. Longs gin house,
and for several hours deiied the thermome-
ter's proclamation of heat by engaging most
ardently in the dance. Everything passed
off very pleasantly, indeed, and all present
testify that the day was an interesting one
