Upon u arrival yesterday We were
received at camp by n advance guard
in military style. The flag was imme-
diately raised and d military salute
fired from our three inch brass howitzer
The boys then began selecting tent
mates and in doing SO had a lot of fun.
The camp was treated last night to an
Craig and Mintz, which was thoroughly
enjoyed and duly appreciated by those
who participated in It
The camp is strictly military, all
hours and duties being observed. There
were expressions Of genuine regret that

from being with US.
If the first days experience is a fair
sample this bids fair TO be easily the
best encampment we have had yet For
this and every other reason we REGRET
the absence of a number of our old re-
liable comrades, who, on ccoun of
sickness, are unable to be with us, and
are thus denied the benefit of this our
annual outing. We who are here are
deply grateful to or employers for this
kind consideration and expect to return
to our work prepared tc render better
service than ever before.

The government plants at Whining
ton and New Bern, which have been
laid up for over a year past, are now
being repaired, IL preparation for ac-
tive operations which will be COM
menced as soon as possible.
The proposed work Of special interest
to his city on the Cape Fear river is
as follows:
A jetty is to be built at Baldhead TO
prevent the wearing away Of the beach.
The damage to the New Inlet dan
caused by the storm of October, 1893,
is to be repaired. the training dyke
near HeQerdl POlnC Is TO De reDulIt,
and r~edredging will be done where
shoaling has occurred in the dredged
cuts previously made. The war OBJ
structions at the mouth of Brunswick
river will also be removed. We un-
derstand that the appropriation is not
sufficiently large to permit n further
work Of widening the 20 Dol channel.
On the Upper Cape Fear the project
for obtaining an s fool channel to
Fayetteville by means of locks and
dams has been approved by congress,
and the $4,000 apl ropriated will suffice
for preliminary work.
The appropriation for Pamlico and
Tar rivers will suffice to obtain a 9
foot channel to Washington; and the
appropriation TO- Neuse and Trent
rivers will permit the removal of shoals
in Neuse river below New Bern, and
the removal Of some of the shoals in
New Bern harbor.
With the approx ration for Scupper-
nong river a 9 foot channel will be cut
across the bar at its mouth.
Most of the other appropriations are
for the purpose Of keeping the streams
