Sturdivant's Battery.
--Young gentlemen who desire to enter the artillery service, would do well to unite with Sturdivant's Battery a company lately organized in this city and under marching orders. This command is made up entirely of young Virginians, of character and respectability, and is well officered. Camp life is rendered agreeable, or otherwise by the associations it induces, and a great good is gained when one is ensured that the hours off duty will be passed with men of the right kind. That assurance every man will have who joins this command. No substitutes have been enlisted therein. The company has nearly attained the maximum fixed by law, and those who wish to unite with it would do well to apply early.
