It remained quartered at the Post Office about two weeks, during which time it was drilled by companies in Scott's tactics at first, and afterwards in Hardee's. Dress parades were regularly held, and occasional battalion drills conducted in the State House yard. The first arms issued were unserviceable, and were subsequently exchanged for rifled muskets. The regiment was clothed in the old United States blue jacket and pants, of so excellent a quality that 24

TWENTIETH REGIMENT,
the men did not require re-elothing during their term of service. This uniform was seeured by the personal exertions of General Patterson, for which he had a great partiality, being the pattern worn in Mexico.
From the Post Office the regiment moved to Suffolk Park, some six miles out of the eity, where drill and discipline were rigidly enforeed, and where ex- cellent progress was made in the school of arms. It remained here about two weeks, when it was ordered to move to Chambersburg to join Patterson's col- umn, and was there assigned to the 3d Brigade* of the 1st Division. On the Sth of June, it advaneed with the Brigade and eneamped first at Greeneastle, then near St. James College, and finally on the banks of the Potomae, at Williamsport, where it remained until the whole army commeneed a forward movement on the 2d of July. In the campaign to Martinsburg and Bunker Hill the services of the regiment were little varied from the usual life of troops on the mareh, in bivouae, and in camp. From Bunker Hill to Charlestown, the Twentieth was thrown out at intervals for the protection of the main eolumn, and on its arrival was pushed forward to Keyes' Ford. This was seized and se- curely held, thus ensuring the safety of the army from an attaek in the rear ; though, as was subsequently ascertained, the enemy had withdrawn and were now hastening in the opposite direction to join Beauregard. The term of ser- vice having nearly expired, it was, on the 24th of July, ordered to Philadel- phia, where it was soon after mustered out of service.

TWENTY-FIRST REGIMENT.
THE Twenty-first regiment originated in a rifle battalion attached to the 1st Brigade, 1st Division of the State militia, commanded by Major John F. Ballier. It consisted of the Lafayette, Washington, Sarsfield, and Phila- delphia rifle companies, of the city of Philadelphia, and the Jackson rifle com- pany of Manayunk. The services of the Battalion were tendered to the Presi- dent on the 15th of April, 1861, and were accepted, on condition that a full regi- ment should be ready for muster within ten days.
Headquarters were established on North Third street, Philadelphia, where the whole regiment was recruited. Most of the men were Germans, and all Philadelphians. It was mustered into the service of the United States on the 29th of April, 1861, by Captain Neill, of the Fifth infantry, and the regimental organization was perfected on the 21st of April, by the choice of the following officers : John F. Ballier, Colonel; Charles Ernenwein, Lieutenant Colonel ; Adolph Mehler, Major. George Wynkoop was appointed Adjutant. Drill, by company and squad, was commenced immediately on the receipt of orders to recruit, and was continued day and evening while the force remained in the city. The vigor displayed on every hand in organizing troops, produced the conviction that an early forward movement was to take place, and the men of the Twenty-first confidently expected, when they enlisted, to be at once led into active service. On the 20th of May, it was ordered to Suffolk Park, where regu lar instruction and camp and guard duty were continued during its stay. Drill was frequently practiced under the eye of Major General Patterson, the com- mander of the Department, which elicited his hearty commendation. Volun- tary contributions of food and clothing by the people of Philadelphia, and especially by the Germans, were freely supplied, and before leaving Suffolk Park the men were generally provided with an outfit of minor articles necessary for their convenience and comfort while in active service.
On the 28th of May, the regiment struck tents, and, marching to Philadel- phia, proceeded to Chambersburg, where it was assigned to the 1st Brigade,* 1st Division of Patterson's army. Moving to the Potomac, it was frequently en- gaged in skirmishing along the river, the enemy bolding the opposite bank. On the 17th of June, the Brigade crossed into Virginia, but soon after returned to the Maryland side. The rebels, who had retreated as our army advanced, now returned in large numbers. A body of three hundred of their cavalry re-visited
