ion, commanded by Brigadier Gen
Garretson, and comprising the Sixth L.
linois, Eighth Ohio, and Sixth Massa-
chusetts regiments, went south via
Charleston, ;. C., where the troops will
embark upon the cruisers Yale and
Harvard. The troops passed through
this city via the Southern Railway
The streets around the depot were
crowded to see the soldiers. Lunches
were handed to the men, as were also
other little remembrances. The train
rolled ont Of the depot amid loud cheers
and waving OF handkerchiefs.
The Ohio boys went via New York
where the cruiser St. Paul is waiting to
carry them TO the theater of the war.
The first Rhode Island Regiment was
yesterday ordered from Camp Alger to
Newport News for embarkation on the
GIsud Duchesse on Thursday, but later
a change YVES made, and the Sixth Ili-
nois was selected in place OF tho Rhode
Island regiment. The reason for this
was that it was thought better to send
all of Gen. Garretson's brigade at once.
