Just then, tho lazy man of the party, a short, stout man from Augusta called me up into tho mill-house, where he was taking Ids case at full length on the floor, with a soft ahunk under ids head. With tears in his eyes' he fift- sured mo that he belle ved that there Imd nqt been a fish over three inches in length ia that j>ond within tho Im-t forty years, but just thfn a fine wore- inouth perch, captured his hook and the'lazy man reluctantly walked down the tog-way—pulled him out, threw fish-lino and polo down iti the hot sand, walked back into the mill ami lay down again with a contented sigh. Tie was not too lazy to talk for he be gan to compare courting and fishing. They are both, he said, hot work this weather, and hard to understand. A courting character g^ts hooked as of ten as he goes a fishing—his lines get tangled, sometimes he catches a tarra- pin instead of a silver fish, sometimes a War-mouth io the person of a scold ing wife, and occassionally ho get,s whaled. Overcome by this Inst, he dropped asleep just as tha bcaCnjutui and his slim partner Charlie came out of a blackberry patch where they had been eating lunch. They invited me to lieadq uarters uiuler a neighboring tree, and at the command of the hear man, the smaller members went skir mishing in search of the fish and pres ently returned, bringing on switches and vines, the spoils of the mill-pound —a few {hh—relatives beyond doubt of \he sardine and herring family. An animated discussion then arose as to the proper method of cooking them, but as chief engineer of .the expedition, the bear man decided that they should be cooked in Indian style as it would be a waste of time and rations to take off fins and scales. With the intention of explaining their ill luck the bear man Insisted that they would have emptied the pond of fish, but for Charlie’s love of blackberries, but Charlie advised him—if he wished to die at home, to send for the editor of TnEPEorLEwho was, he thought, from bis treatment of the Sentinel, a good doctor. Io order |to check this rising mutiny the bear man mounted a log and commenced a stump speech^ Jle warned Charlie and Tom nnd Albert of the dangers surrounding them—a track similar to that of a bear had been discovered that morning in a neighboring watermelop patch* an al- Hgrtor bad lifted op his voice that very hoar and it sounded Itj his cars Uka the war-whoop of Sitting Bull, the OMrieifeg Jew wan on bts travels, and jjMMkMMMtfou* waa gro Lika off upon the troubled waters hie ■pe-rh brought peace—visions of the home* sad peach Orchards, the melon ■ * apd grounds they never see again passed before ity of London having for admitting wo- , L'uiyerMty Coliege at t|re nyeasAthe young fiahennen, they « i, ga,,* tbre, cheera for the bear map and swore to follow him on he prom load to lead them safely homeward.

The regiment was as. semhled once a year, usually in the month of May. at the connty town, where it was mancqiveml and instructed rather after Prvden’q svstem than either of those prescribed bv Congress. Preparatory and for three days im mediately preceding the ■general muster the officers of ail arms were assembled and drilled together ns a light infantry company, commanded by their field offi cers. They were instructed in the man- uni of arms, company meric?, regimen til nmnauiverg, apd wound up by ? eov~ monious rehearsal of the part they were to play in the grand revitw next day. Although this company exhibited t^m cliff; jol Qup regimental ap)cudors t g’it teriug with tinsel and fiauuting-wilh teat hers, a more heterogeneous nnd un- soldicrly parade could scarcely be imag ined.

The offi. eers of the volunteer companies, m the o’bcr hand, were generally selected for their handsome appearance and martial bearing, and shone with a certain ele- -» Oj - ganee of equipment, each in the uniform pertaining- to his company. There was also a sprinkling of ex-veterans of 1812, recognizable by a certain martinet pre cision in their deportment and a shadow of contempt for their crude comrades, but quick to resent any extraneous com ment derogatory to the service.

If the wisest and beet men were left at home was that any reason why they could not give the members the benefit of their counsel. If they were truly patriotic and deceraed the good of the people, would they not have warned the members when they were about to make blunders ? Was it not their religious duty ?
