Letcher, and presented with State flags. They cheered vociferously as they received them. The presentation took place at the for inaction on the pike, just at the edge of Centreville. The Generates were all standing upon the fortifications. We rode quite near, and I obtained a good view of Gen. Beauregard, as he was standing with his face towards us. I liked his appearance very much. He has a mild, placid face.

Jones took his position on his peculiar colored horse almost a clay color; while all the companies that were not out on picket passed around, first, in platoons, and then in columns of two abreast. There are some very fine horses in this regiment. After review we had preaching in camp by Major Danney Ball, former Chaplain to this regiment; but he has now buttoned up his clerical coat with Virginia buttons, put a star on each side of his collar, and gone on to General Stuart's staff.

I saw the Sumter Flying Artillery of Georgia, drilling yesterday. The movements were more rapid and regular than anything I had ever conceived of with so many men and horses engaged. They are a fine looking company. Gov. Letcher reviewed the cavalry to day, but as it was a repetition of what I saw on Monday, I will not enter into detail. The only difference was that the officers were dressed up in their "best clothes" to-day, and rode their finest horses. One of the brightest features in camp life is the happy negroes. They
