SAVANNAH. GA, November 12.-(Spe-
cal)-Thls has been Virginia-Day in sa-
vannah again. The coming of Governor

impulse TO the zeal of the Virginians

TO tho front than they were before. This

Mrs. Tyler the Misses Tyler. and Colonel
C. OBJ. Cowardin. Colonel Tenant, and
colonel SHELTON, Of the Governors staff
rode out to the camp Of the Fourth Vir-
ginia and made thorough inspection of
81. The colonel Of the regiment and all
the commissioned officers refrained from
attending the Governor. I'm order that his
Intercourse with the men might be unre-
served. The party went up and down
each street. making friends Of all the sol
disrs. The Governor shook hands with
every soldier 10 be seen. and had words
OF good cheer for each one He was
ably seconded in this by Colonel Cowardin.
The kitchens and bakery were visited,
and the soldiers cooking and baking at
tracted a good deal of attention from the
ladies. They had no idea the Virginia
boys were so proficient in these arts.
The Governor heard patiently the plead
ings Of the enlisted men, and while
promising to do all he could for them,
praised their soldierly work. He referred
10 the beautiful tribute paid to the Fourth
Virginia by General Hasbrouck, who
commands the brigade.
THE CORPS REVIEWED.
At $50 p. NJ. the regiment assembled
and fell into line with the other regiments
OF the Second Division along the Thunder
bolt road, and marched down TO Forsythe
Park. where assembled the Seventh Corps
From a stand in front of this park Gene
raj Lee and Governor Tyler and staff re-
viewed the whole Seventh Army Corps.
An immense crowd had gathered all
around the park, and on the sidewalks
along the line Of march. The regiments
formed in masses Of companies in regular
order OF brigades and divisions, and rarely
has there been witnessed a more imposing
display At about $3.50 General Lee and
staff rode up and down the lines. taking
q general survey of the troops. They
were followed by Governor Tyler and
party in carriages. on reaching the re-
vicwingstand, General Lee and staff Joined
the Executive of the Old Dominion. The
review was greatly enjoyed by ALL es-
pecially Governor Tyler who had so lately
witnessed the great Peace Jubilee DEMON
stration in Philadelphia. The parade
here, while it may not have afforded the
presence Of so many heroes as were in
the Philadelphia affair, in military pre-
cision and numbers compared most favor
ably with the latter.
VIRGINIANS APPLAUDED.
The Virginia boys were Justify applaud
ed. and naturally So as they passed in
review, but what was most striking TO
an who reviewed the troops was the
North Carolina regiment. When they
arrived at Jacksonville they were ragged.
but. TO use the language of General Has
brOuck. they are a most commendable
regiment, and second TO none. 1t is hoped
that the Fourth Virginia will soon be so
recruited that they may add numbers of
their present tactical efficiency. The
general of the brigade commends the
regiment as thoroughly efficient in tactics.
Probably the handsomest salute from
the handsomest officer made in the re-
view was that given by General Henry
Douglass, formerly Of Richmond, and re-
Gently Of Baltimore, General Lee and
Governor Tyler applauded him NEST
heartily.
