has been appreciated by the troops
from the Southern state, and since
then friendship has sprung up be-
tween the two regiments which will
be remembered with pleasure by all of

| in accordance with. an order published
by Gen. Brooke. The work is being
vigorously pushed by three inspectors
of the United States army. There are
forty-three regiments in the field, and
from this it may be seen that it will
be about ten days before the inspection
will be completed.
This inspection is being made to as
certain the exact condition of all equip
| ments now on hand and in the posses
sion of each regiment, and to ascer-
tain the amount of extra equipments
needed by each before they can be
considered on a war footing. The pol
icy is to equip the regiments as rapidly
as possible, and after the inspecting
officers make their detail report for
| each regiment the equipments will be
F! forthcoming.

| affair is hard to conceive. Gen. Brooke
has passed the word around among
! corps, division and brigadier command
ers instructing them to put forth every
effort to prepare for such a review
