THE MAY DRILL.


The meeting of the national drill committee
last night Gen. Ordway, vice chairman, presid-
ing, was strictly business, and devoted to rou-
tine financial matters. Chairmen OF three Inn
pOrtant collecting subcommittee were in New
York and could not report, and those present
swelled the list to $22, 500. with the principal
sources of subscription still unheard from.
Messrs. Henry H. Carter and Robert A. Parke,
Of the Pennsylvania railroad, were present as
members OF the committee for the first time,
Mr.. Carter having come over from Philadelphia
expressly to confer with the other members Of
INTEREST," eo the Be'n nes tooR
in the drill, and pledged solid assistance,
both in money and rates Hon: Jeh Chandler,
added to the committee. The most interesting
feature OF the meeting was the number of letters
from every section of the country reported.
These state entries, ask for details of prizes,
&C., aud cover all parts OF the country. Letters
were were read last night from Massachusetts,
Missouri, Tennessee and South Carolina, all
showing intent to recognize this as a national
waukee Light Horse squadron; the Escambia
Rifles, of Pensacola, ana Others were reported
as heard from since the previous meeting. A
most practical and interesting letter has been
received by secretary De Leon from Gen. G. s.
Bentley, of Chicago, "the typical National
famous Northwest Brigade" and having
been successfully rendered chief command
OF the interstate drills of Nashville,
1T is now with great pleasure that l
frankly give you my opinion regarding a ma
tional drill and encampment at Washington
next May. With your experience at Mobile
and elsewhere, you will agree with me that the
success OF these matters depends wholly on
the earnestness OF those who have them in
charge. Perfect harmony among the managers
must exist, and q live interest be manifested
by the community at large. AT Mobile all
these essentials existed, and the result was
an unqualified military success. You pre-
sented an array OF thoroughly drilled com.
panies; and we'll may Mobile be proud
OF her efforts. Washington has most
decided advantages over any other city in The
UniOn-those OF being the national capital with
national attractions. Ii her prominent citizens
give earnest support there is 10 question of sue
cess. A drill and encampment at
Washington should be on grand scale, every
state and territory being represented by at
least one company, forming miles OF soldiers
and music! 1 need not undertake to point out
the arduouS duty To be performed by you, but
IN conclusion let me say, believe in it! favor
1t! indorse it!' Mr.. Wiilett reported that the
National Rifles, of this city, had held u meeting
and decided to enter the competition. Mr.. Fox
reported that Capt. Mills, Of the Washington
Continentals, had declared himself and his
company ready for any and all duty assigned
them. The meeting adjourned subject to call
OF Chairman Wheatley.
Among the subscriptions announced last eve
ming were the following Thos. Il. Waggaman,
Sl,OOO w ashington Gaslight company 81 900;
>. &. Palmer, $500, and JEFF Chandler, 5000.
