TAs Camp. This Year.

The Camps This Year.
 where are our troops going to camp this year?" writes an officer 0f the Alabama National Guard. It Is im- possible for me to answer this dues- tion. as 1t is entirely too early to de- ternine the question. The Governor has not, as yet. considered it at all. as the matter has not been brought to his attention in an official or unofficial way. so far as I am informed. It is presumed. however. that he will do as other Governors have done before him, ana leave the matter to the decision of the various commanding officers, merely approving their requests in this regard.
 The artillery and cavalry will likely 10 to Fort Moultrie, and participate with the coast artillery there in coast artillery exercises. It Is probable that tho three regiments of infantry will 20 to Jamestown, but that depends en- tirely upon the transportation rates that can be obtained from the rail roads and other most important con- sessions yet to be arranged.
 It may be that the lack of funds will prevent the infantry going to James, town, in which event the three regi- ments will likely camp in the State at different places at separate times. The State will be very apt to have team in the National Rifle Match at Fort Perry. Every arrangement has been made to make this years match a suc- cess, and the Winchester shells. to be especially loaded for the purpose. have already been ordered for the Alabama team.
