CAN'T CECIL CLAY.
BAY RIpeK. Nd. August :. 1891.
The fifth day of the encampment of the sixth
battalion at Camp Cecil Clay dawned clear and
bright The weather was warm. but tempered
with fine breeze which blew from tine south
at intervals during the day. The boys were
alert and active during the morning and
polieed the camp so thoroughly that Maj.
BARTLETT sitting in his headquarters tent made
the remark that small piece of straw, about
six inches long, which met his eyes as be
gazed around. looked as large to him as the
ridge pole of the hospital tent" The cause
OF all this extremely great care in the cleaning
OF the grounds was the expectation upon the
part OF the men that their commanding gem
eral would visit them in the course Of the day
and inspect the camp. this TO be followed by a
review OF the troops, in connection with the
fourth battalion Of the Maryland National
t,uard, as was originally contemplated when
the sixth left Washington. These anticipations
were not realized and complete change in the
program was made. The camp and the grounds
presented beautiful appearance. however, and
were the subject of frequent complimentary
remarks on the part of the visitors.
AN EXTENDED ORDER DRILL
During the morning preparations were made
for an extended order drill by the entire bat
talon. Promptly at 8 o'clock in tine afternoon,
under the command of Capt. Wilson. the bat
TALON marched down to the cleared field just
to the right of the gravity railroad, and in a
few minutes thereafter were deploying Skin
mishers upon an extended line. The spectacle
was an interesting one, and the boys ad-
vanced to the charge or assembled around their
officers at the signals given it was not hard to
realize the great advantages which viii accrue
to future armies in the development and adop-
ton OF the extended order formations. The
men suffered somewhat from the heat and one
poor fellow was SO overcome that it became
necessary TO put him under the of the
medical department, where he received the
best of attention and at night was very nearly
himself again. This is the first occasion upon
which the hospital tent and its sppurtenances
have been brought into requisition.

from prominent teachers in Germany France

not be employed successfully with exclusion Of
all others; that a large proportion OF the deaf
