there Is a smaller number of men In
the North Carolina company than was
here for Georgia?there are about
700 of them?the preparations, of
course, are not so great In scope;
and, at the same time, the North
Carolina boys went right at their
wort yesterday morning like men
well experleneed In It and when leave
was granted yesterday afternoon for
a number of them to come Into the

How the Camp Looks.
Tha caana at W*,oaU. I
quite familiar, yet the camp site in
not nearly so well filled as It was
last week. Recollection of the space
occupied at that time, measured with
that occupied by the North Carolina
troops, now makes it perfectly plain
that there would have been an abundance
of room to lake care of even
more troops than North Carolin and
Georgia on the ground at one time.
The cavalry is occupying the same
ground occupied by the Georgia cavalry.
and found some of the convenience
arranged for the Georgia
mounted mitttia quite handily arranged
for the eecond camp. The
two troops are very well experienced
body ot horsemen and present quite
an attractive showing. A particularly
noticeable feature in the cavalry
camp is the well-groomed, wellkept
horses.
The infantry camp Is pitched
nearer the main road than was the
camp last week?that is. regimental
headquarters, Instead of being near
the location of General Harris' brigade
headquarters, is on a location
near where the Georgia field hospital
stood. This brings the entire North
| Carolina camp down near the main
road.
Generally the men express complete
satisfaction with the camp alte.
despite the fact that the weather
was not as propitious for their ar!
rival on the ground as when Georgia
camp. It is noticeable, though, that
the camp Is not in tKe loast soggy,
and there is a complete absence of
mud. except on the road from
O'Dowd's corner to the camp site, arter
a xaln of half a night and all of a
dav^"8rhe drainage of the alte has
had air^jcellent tent, and has proven
all the officers here with the Georgia
outfit said It would be In case of
