Exclusive to the Review
Chickamauga Park, June 18TH. Y our
correspondent has felt somewhat indis-
posed for several days, all Of which can
be ascribed to his own lndiscretion in
not following the advice of numerous
friends, offered gratis, relative to the
amount of food and stimulants to be
conveyed into ones system in q southern
climate. Il Il
I attribute my downfall to the free
use of bacon my friends insist it is due
to my morning beverage. ("Morning''
here evidently means twenty -four hours.

" It Is hard to resist the Colouel, and
when Capt. Stang Of the Norwegian ar
tillery, who is guest at the headquart-
ers of the Twelfth, expounds on the vlr-
tues of cocktails and says ''skol'' in such
bewitching manner, capitulation is in
order. -. r 't'5~ - ...*~~~.
The rainy season has evidently put IN
| here, for 1t has rained daily since Sun
day. The Twelfth was caught In one of
these showers this morning and beat a
hasty retreat for shelter, not before they
we're thoroughly soaked however. You
know how hens look after a rain; you
can therefore easily picture to yourself
the appearance of the volunteers.
Nothing new or startling has happened
within the week, aside from the fact that
another member of the company is down
with the mumps. This is the second
case in the regiment and Co. A has the
honor of having supplied both cases. If
any more develop, the New Ulm aggre-
CATION will certainly go down Ill history
as the "mumps company
Private Andrew Aron was the Colon
els orderly yesterday and VIM. Bierbaum
was detailed in like capacity for the
adjutant. 1t is considered quite an hon
or to serve in this capacity, even if the
orderly is sometimes requested to rush
the GROWER.
1t. Mueller breathes easier, now that
he has succeeded in locating the horse
which was taken from division head
quarters about June 2nd, without his
knowledge and consent, and even more
so because of the return of an army mule
which disappeared from the corral about
five days ago.
There is some strange mystery con-
nected with this mule affair. The gen.
ial lieutenant would give no description
of the mule, and to his friends he even
asserted that army mules have DO de-
scription. One thing is certain. Fol
several nights it was noticed that Muel-
Ter came into camp quite late without
giving an explanation. Since the return
Of the mule he shows up before taps.
Your readers are no doubt aware that
when soldiers make charge on the enc
my, they do SO on the run, yelling at the
top of their voices, presumably for the
purpose of soaring the other fellows. It
is on such momentous occasions that
sergt. Major Koch shines. They do say
of him that he yells like a pack of wild
Indians.
Today I had the pleasure of dining
with the officers of the first battalion.
The commissioned members of the New
Ulm company belong to this elite circle,
and I am sure il will interest the people
of New Ulm to know how they live. In
the first place they serve their meals in
courses, and could not avoid noticing
that they were rather coarse. When
asked about dessert, they quietly in
formed me that it was customary for
them to desert about that time, ana as
they said it they picked up their camp
chairs and retired in the best order pos
si5le. -. ~tr-
Two days ago the members of Comp.
any A received 1870 abdominal bendages
from the Ladies Society of the New Ulm
Turnverein. The boys appreciate the
gift highly and will ever hold the donors
in grateful remembrance 4.~
Tonight the boys feel very cheerful,
| Quartermaster Lind having presented
them with crate Of raspberries. '.'That's
for my home company" he said, and
the boys pronounced John Lind all right
in right smart way.
When about two hours later the cap
tain informed the company, that prior
to their departure from New Ulm Anton
Hartmuth had handed him some money
with the request that the boys be per
