 Camp Herbert
 Camp Herbert wears lonesome aspect today. The furoughed men, about 95 per cent. of the regiment, have folded their tents and gone to their homes. The com posite company of 100, which is made up from details from each of the twelve com panies. is in command of Captain Walden, of the Marengo company. who is the com mander of the camp. If the rain, which started today, continues for some days, the camp will be extremely uncomfortable, as the soil there is of murky constituency.
 At the expiration of thirty days the sol- s s sSsfe1ss S IetsSrH sgIh ana sa TsfSASe sS{Se or have their furloughs extended, pending further developments It is not generally believed among the people that this regi- ment will be mustered out yet awhile The men appear somewhat indifferent as to their fate now that they are at home en- toying a much-needed recuperation at the same time receiving their full pay and an allowance of 25 cents per day for rations. Then, too, all who have positions to &C., cept are permitted to do so, of course, all the while subject to the call of the govern ment.
 The soldiers will draw their September and October pay also ration funds when mustered out In addition to this. they are credited with accounts ranging from $25 to $50 for clothing allowance not yet taken up. This, too, 1t is understood, will be paid them upon muster out
 First Inspectors of M. & Q.
 The Alabama railroad commissioners re- turned from yesterdays first inspection of the Montgomery division of the Mobile and Ohio railroad and seem to be much pleas ed with the result of their inspection-es- pecially if it is taken into consideration that this division was but recently finished and given over to general traffic. The con- missoners find this new road with the ex- ception of few difficult mountain pas sages in comparatively fine condition, well built, with good heavy timber and extra splendid, substantial structures. as well as the new depots while already several new and promising towns have sprung out into a territory that was but last year com parative wilderness The commission went as far as Columbus, Miss, and made the trip in fifteen hours.
