rHE RIcHARDsoN zouAvEs.

At 245 p. NJ. the Richardson Zouaves appeared
to compete for the Legion prize ana their APP
pearance was the signal for great demonstra
ton of applause, as in their tasty uniforms they
came with easy marching step before the thou
sands of people who surrounded the parade
ground. Their maneuvers were promptly and
accurately executed, wheels, especially by fours,
being remarkably good. When deployed as
skirmishers their picturesque uniforms showed
to the greatest advantage, while their loading
and firing was tirst.class This company was or
ganized in July, 1882, and yesterday was the
first time they ever entered a competitive drill.
The movements were rapidly executed, the
ZOuaves finishing the forty-tive-minute pro-
gramme in thirty-fve minutes.
Following this came the Calling gun drill,
first section a novelty to nearly every one upon
the grounds, even the old soldiers. The boys
handled the piece well, and the rafting detOna-
lions of blank cartridges gave an indication of
what might be expected of the weapon where
business was intended and the powder sup
plemented with lead. The Richardson Zouaves
again came upon the field and gave special
drill for the zouave prize, which was fully equal
TO their previous performance.
