Some of us have never returned to the sacred shelter of that hallowed spot since the call to arms, and as we turn back to view it with the mind's eye through the vista of two years departed time, we deeply feel that the shrine of liberty is one upon which costly sacrifices must be laid.

Everything passed off in the best member; the men enjoyed the good things hugely, and the pleasure which they evinced secured to be infinitely gratifying to the fair donors, who stood by and looked stallingly on. When the dinner was every, which was not the hungriest of the "Bloody Flat" was more than satisfied, three rousing cheers for Mr. Keningham and three for the ladies of Richmond were given, and the men were marched back to their quarters. We venture the that ours is the first regiment that has been complimented with a dinner since the war began. A happy new year and many returns to the ladies who gave it.
