 For the regular troops already in camp the day was rather a quiet one. The in- l fantry put in hard but eventful stretch
 of work at digging intrenchments. The
 cavalry brigade spent the morning polish ing up for a brigade review which took
 place in the afternoon.
 Twelve hundred men from the 1st. 3rd and 20th Infantry were set to work early in the day on a series of intrenchments with front of about 1,700 feet The time consumed and the quality of the work were appraised by General Bates and the umpires The principal object in throwing up the works. however. was that they | might be used for the instruction of the officers, of the State Guard.
 The review of the cavalry in the after noon was attended by General Bates. the umpires and nearly all the visiting of- ficers, including Major Raspapoff and Col
 onel Foster. the representatives of the Russian and British armies. The troops on review consisting of two squadrons of the Sth. a squadron of the 7th and two troops each of the End and 4th, made a decided impression on the foreign at- taches. After they had passed in review
