As the first rays of morning, light shot across the (Eastern sky, ycstcr day;the sidewalks began to fill with people, sonic congregating at the cor ners, while the majority kept up a ceaseless moving. At 9 o’clock the city was in a bustle of excitement,and the streets were alive with restless concourse of citizens and visitors. The heat was intense, and the. con stant dodging to prevent collisions on the crowded. wajk%_ kept owri'bodr warm to theUKriling point Umbrel las of every description, from the lad ed ginghams to the elegant silk, were kept in active use, furnishing shelter from the scorching rays. Fans were in demand, the wide spreading pab" leaf waving in unison with thc ,M<llt y and many colored air dist f,; !,el ” O1 the ladies, yet, iiotwiUi-'‘ l "^' n = dic never ceasing move o- 4 ’ the multitude of fans, collars w-‘ ,ed > handkerchiefs became dam-'”" 1 lim P> aud thc Pros piration Mcklcd from forehead and chccl- The of our union, thc s t_.es and stripes, was run up on thc liberty pole, and hung in graceful folds except when stirred by the oc casional breezes. Thc red white and blue floated from thc doors, and win dows, and from thc tops of buildings, and every available place of observa tion was occupied by the fair sex, clad in edstumes of white, lookjng cool and Lointbrttblc, aed Uewftchingly captivating to their sternor escorts, who were anything but cool or com fortable. TBADE. The stores wore crowded all day with customers, and the sales all over the city weiv reported larger than for the whole week. The boom was solid and substantial, the dealers doing a cash business. The encampment will be worth thousands of dollars to Rome, and much to induce people to come to our Mountain City. THE PROCESSION formed on Broad street about half past ten o’clock, the lead resting on Oostanaula. The Chatham’s were the first to arrive and while waiting, for the troops from camp, indulged in some vocal music which was highly appreciated by the audience. At a distance could be heard thc roll of drums and the tramp of feet, tell ing of tile advance of . thc troops from camp, which was waited for in sus pense by thc surging crowd. After the arrival of the boys from Camp Lee thc procession.jvas formed in the following order: SELMA CORNET BAND, composed of eleven men under the leadership of Whitely King. The ' baud iS undoubtedly “a gqod one and the members play in perfect harmony. They headed thc porcession and dis coursed excellent music along the line of march. ; Thfir playing Mas been complimented very highly by the spectators, and the}' are really de serving of praise. Next, following •n a stately steed, was * COL. CLLFORD A. ANDERSON And by his request, Adjutant-General 5 Baird led thc the. advance on the right, accompanied by the stall’of the Cot. Commanding, consisting of Major Brooks. Capt. Gaillard and Lieut. all mounted and riding with thc dignity and ease of old army of ficers. Next followed the Atlanta llattal lions under command of Lieut.-Col. Heyward. Although the battalion wa not but in-full, for although they wade a good show, tlu) companies have been organized only a short time, but. the members give promise of well drilled men amt they look as if they have en ergy enough to stick and make a first class company. One-thing we can say and that is they conduct themselves as. genii. ici.H on all tfm Ahbivllle Hl. c.l ■ i twenjy-fiA e. men -iii ranks. and mAh- ft good show of well drilled nnd icaliy uniformed men. The Hill City Cadet numbering twenty-eight, followed, and iigfct.irtarehed the Cherokee Artil lery Pl um Corps, composed of ‘even of Rome’s best .voting men. I ' Jr'ut..’•Eihv.uiD .i.

(.client drum corps. The Rome Cor net Band played alternately with the Selma band; and made things lively . with some good music. THE VENERABLE CIIATTIAMS with over fifty uniformed men and four guns made a long line in the pro cession. They were' followed by the handsomely uniformed Cherokee Artillery with twenty-live members. The procession was a long one, and camo np to the expectation of every one. The line pafaded Broad street down to the Rome Hotel, then up to the City Hall, where they stopped and gave a short exhibition drill. Just as the order was given along the lino ranks, a light shower camo up and gave a refreshing cool ness to the atmosphere, xwH<|ll>raC)ng breezes fronj’tjio rivers' unfolded the flags and threw them outspread to the n. there was nothing] deserving of especial mention nirtu the dress pa«iitc at the camp ground at 6 o’cl'”'"- The roads wet* in an dusty condition, but notwithstanding this, the vehicles were kept g®ig to the parade ground i-n a steady line, and stirred up vast volumes ol dust, which, settled on thc occupants and pedestrians. The same companies formed in line for dress parade, excepting the Atlanta Greys, whose place was well filled by thc Gate Gity Guards. The compa nies did unusually well, and their ma neuvers were viewed with interest by thc large number of spectators on thc ground. Adjutant-General Gaillard read thc following general orders: Headquarters Camp LeeJ Near Rome, Ga., July 10,1880. $ GENERAL ORDER NO. 5.

It, has been generally remarked, n.ascii, that the distinguish- ing feature of (tie so many young officers.

Anderson’s stall', and one of the handsonicstand most accomplished of ficers in the service, and Major Sid ney Herbert, an ex-stall’oflicer of the army, but forever ten years a resident of the South. At the Battle of Bull Run, July, 1861, Major Herbert was serving with Gen. Upton on Gen. Tyler’s stall’, and in that capacity had charge of Gen. Gardner as a prisoner, anil treated him with great kindness, giving- him the medical attention of Surgeons Douglass and Bacon, and otherwi providing for comfort. | After the retreat, and when it was i made known that Gen. G. was sup- j posed to be mortally wounded, the officers of the Union army, who had , served with him before the war, wept to hear the sad news, so attached were they to their old comrade. No inoit chivalrous soldier than ;■ Gen. Gardner over drew his sword,and few have suffered more from wounds in battle. In the obi army he was beloved and trusted, and in the Con federate service ho was eonspicuoi;- for his heroic conduct. Yesterday he and Major Herbert met for the first time since the w battle in which Gen. G. was so terribly wounded, nearly twenty years ago, . yet their rc-union was cordial and t happy, and they talked over the bloody battle in which both were made life , sufferers by terrible wounds. The entire party present greatly cn , joyed the stories and incidents of the . old army and the late war, and the re-union closed with the following toast, to which all heartily responded: f “ The commingling of the ‘ Grey ’ and the‘Blue’; may it continue in peace forever and forever.
