marsh park. Every soldier in the ranks
seemed to realize that not only was the
commander In chief Of some of the crack
regiments OF the country watching him,
but that 5000 pairs of the brightest eyes
were focused upon him also. The result
was that the marching was superb. The
different bodies kept their correct dis

Regiment, as usual, gave the others
lesson in tactics Every regiment and
