PEACE NOT POPULAR IN CAMP.

Eirst-1he Fifth Illinois.

too soon to be to their liking. There is
not command here that is not anx-
ious to see actual service, and only one
who has visited the regiments daily can
fully appreciate the disappointment that
would prevail should hostilities cease

without having gone TO meet the enemy

nois, who were so badly demoralized by
the order returning them to Camp
Thomas after they had made a start for
the front, were in better frame OF
mind, and those who absented them
selves from roll call began returning. 1t
is believed that every man will be i'm his
place today.
