The universal sen Intent was one of astonishment an ommendation, and it was admitted on 111 sides that such a drill was never be- are witnessed in this city. The Com Jinny seemed to inove like a collection of llectnc clocks, even in loading and fir ing, and stacking arms,—two of the Inost difficult movements for concerted ction. The manual, the light infantry drill mnmanded unusual applause. The 1 right shoulder shift,” the “ secure Irms,” "ground arms,” were splendidly llone. In the loading and firing, the regular ramming, and breaking of the burtridgs with the hands, the return ramrod, and simultaneous firing were bxcellcnt. In the company movements, |he “ break into platoons,” "exchange auks while on the march,” "oblique oy bla'oons,” "wheeling,” and "counter marching,” both in quick and double Wick time, drew down continued piau- 6 its from the military spectators. But the most surprising part of the drill was that without knapsacks ; the deploying from one end of the Purk to the other In companies of five as skirmishers; for mation of company pyramid, preparing bgainH cavalry assault; tiie bayonet ex- bt-cise, retreat and shout on the ruliy, Induced a perfect /woe of ap- j.uuse from tiie citizens and inditary.— f'ue whole wound up with an exhibition If loading and tiring while lying oil the ■round, running forward and retreating vith an agility that would seem to ona- llo them to usdge between bulls in ~ pal engagement. Their surprising pi-ingliness, muscularity and general ymnastic excellence, wax particularly eveloped in these movements, and the iipidity witli which they dropped down n their stomachs, tuined over on their |uoks and loaded, turned hack and fir- .1, jumped up by platoons, ran ahead, Ind repeated the same process, was liuhly interesting, though somewhat ludicrous. Some of our dignified, kid- ^loved soldiers would look quite funny the performance of such ma lt cenv res. The entire drill lasted nearly three Jtours, including stbppages for rest, a lew moments each time, and although l>erformo.( under a scorching sun, on the hot sand, and comprising a scries pt vigorous exercises, the men stood it pell, and attended strictly to their bus ies*. Two or three accidently lost Jieir caps during the double quick, hid took not the slightest notice of it, fthcr at tho time, or when subsequent- the company c.inae to a halt, Jcotnrado placed the caps awry upon |ieir owner’s bends. Most men would ave adjusted their head covering to fit bmfortubly, but they did not make lie slightest effort to touch them until lie order came to rest. The entire Irill of the afternoon was performed Inder a number of disadvantages that lould have daunted a less hardy corps. |'he Zouaves were fatigued with their ong journey, a lack of sleep on the oat, anil the hot, dusty march of the norning. Tho entiro drill of which flie corps is capable, includes a large number of movements not touched up on from want of time, including the silent manucl, charging on a street ■crowd, and other novel movementa— ■The latter was tried in one of the | Western cities on tlicir way here, and I their assumed ferocity and horrid yelU [at the charge set oven the military ■scattering belter shelter. Several op portunities will be given for our city * oldiers to witness the drill of tho Zou aves. and compete for the splendid chumpion colors won by tiie latter at trie late United States Agricultural ■Fair. Arrest of u Negro Stealer—An Organised baud at Work. Lost Thursday a man named Frank lin Luster, altar John E. Lester, arrived at Charleston by the Waynesboro' ar.d South Carolina Railroad, bringing with him a likely negro. On the following day he took the negro to Messrs. Wilbur & Sons, and offered to sell him to Mr. H. L. Jeffers. The demeanorof Lester was such as to exoite the suspicions of Mr. 'Jeffers, and the negro, on being closely questioned, admitted that he had been stolen. Hereupon, Mr. Jef- feis secured the services of the police, and Lester was arrested. During his examination before Captian Bass, he protested stoutly that the negro was his own, and came from Rabun county, Georgia; while the negro on the other hand! declared that he belonged to Col, Willis Young, of Station No. 5, Central Railroad. What gave color to the slave’s narrative was, that he ap- >eared quite familiar with the latter ocality, while with the former he was utterly unacquainted. Lester produced a bill of sale for the negro, dated 1858, but on investigation it appeared con clusively from the freshness of tiie ink, etc., that this was a forgery. Capt. Bass then telegraphed to the Chief of Police at Savannah and while awaiting an answer, Mr. Hamilton, a son-in-law of Col. Young, arrived in Charleston and immediately identified the negro. Lester was commuted to jail to await requisition from the Governor of Georgia. He has since confessed that there is a regularly organized hand of these negro thieves encamped *in the O^eechee river swamp. Whenever they kidnap a slave, they send some member of their gang out ’.o soli him, as in tiie present instance. Among others in the band, lie named Griggs, (who, ho says, came to Charleston with him,) Wynn, two brothers, Jim and Tom Price, Aaron Robinson, and others.— These are all young men, and, accord ing to Lester’s statement, iiuve now a large body of negroes at .Savannah waiting for shipment.—Charleston Mer cury, l'Jth.
