THE NATIONAL GUARD.
Some Regulations Bearing on the En-
campment-Rifiemen at the Barracks.

Gen Ordway has issued circular in refer
ence to the annual encampment of the District
National Guard at Fort Washington, in which
he says: 1.-THE annual encampment will be held
from July 81 to July %. The time in camp
will be wholly devoted to instruction that can
not be given in the armories or streets-such
as guard duty, skirmish drill, school of the
battalion, evolutions of a regiment and pos
sibly OF brigade. In this view it would be a
useless expense to take into camp men who
have not been thoroughly instructed in the
school of the soldier and the school of the
company, and, therefore, commanding officers
of companies will be prohibited from allowing
any man to go to camp who is not enlisted be-
fore June /, or, if enlisted after that date shall
be thoroughly drilled soldier at the time of
enlistment.
1T will be equally useless to take into camp
men whose terms of service will expire in camp,
or soon thereafter, unless such men intend to
remain in the National Guard Commanding
officers of companies will therefore be prohib-
tied from allowing any man to go into camp
whose term of service expires before August /,
1870, unless such man shall, before going. de-
clare his intention to re-enlist on the expira-
tion Of his existing enlistment"
During the month OF June, the circular order
says, the brigade will be exercised in rapid
assembly by being called out for duty by verbal
orders and by prescribed signal on the fire
alarm bells.
Maj. ]. NJ. Pollard, inspector general Of rife
practice, has issued an order stating that ''ali
officers and enlisted men OF the District Ma
tional Guard who have averaged total of 65
per cent in all gallery practice, or, exclusive Of
the February score, are qualified to participate
in the volunteer practice ordered forW ednesday.
May z and each succeeding Wednesday during
the month at the Washington barracks range
Firing at the 200 yards range will commence at

Of Wales, in the name Of the English people,
welcomed the illustrious traveller, and said he
was glad to accord him a hearty greeting after
all he had gone through. Mr.. Stanley, who
was received with prolonged cheers, said his
position was a difficult one in addressing them,
the committee hampering his freedom in re-
gard TO what he should say. He defended the
route across Africa he had selected. He paid
. high tribute to the devotion and courage of
his associates. He said he could have dis

IN FIRST PLACE.
The Washfngton's Play an Errorless
Game and Bat Hard

Hard hitting and perfect fielding made the
Senators easy victors over the Worcester ball
club yesterday by the score Of 10 to s, and they
were thus put into the first place in the Atlantic
Association pennant chase as both Baltimore and
Hartford lost. The game was as pretty a. any
home crowd could wish to see and there were
at least thousand or eleven hundred people
to see the fine work of the home club. The
batteries were Wise and Riddle and Stafford
and Wilson. The foreign bstters took SO kindly
to the Washingtonian's delivery in the frst in
ming that he was taken out of the box and
Phillips substituted with good effect, "a he
held the opponents down to scattering hits
except in the third inning, and then they scored
but one run.
Washington scored four runs in the first in
ming and Worcester one in the third. In the
fifth Washington made five runs and won the
game. Worcester could only squeeze out one
tally. Washington scored in the eighth
Worcester also made a run in the eighth.
Washington made IA hits and no errors, and
Worcester IL hits and errors.

In the Atlantic Association the other victors
were Jersey City, Newark and New Haven

A Novel Civil Rights Dectstor

novel opinion in a civil rights case of great
interest to steamboat companies was given yes
terday in Baltimore by Judge Bond in the
United States circuit court affirming a ruling
OF the district court. Robert McGinn colored,
libeled the steamer Mason Wsems. He had
bought a frst-class ticket. In the eating sa-
loon were two tables, one for white passengers,
the other for colored. He seated himself at
the whites table, refused to go to the other
table, at which there were no other negroes,
and the white passengers accordingly took the
blacks table, leaving him alone at theirs.
Judge Bond says: There were provided in the
same saloon two tables of equal spread, with
the same food and like attendance. The steam
boat company made separation, but no dis
tinct,on between passengers, and the appellant
by his conduct appears to have been the only
person on board who did so or put any affront
on the colored passengers by refusing to sit nj
their table," The libel was dismissed.
