TREDEGAR BATTALION. – This splendid corps, under command of Major R. S. Archer, made a grand parade and muster yesterday. Besides the infantry force a battery of heavy siege guns and rifled Parrott guns was in line, and added greatly to the appearance of the muster. Accompanied by the Armory Band, under the soi disant[?] leadership of C. Volandt, the column proceeded to the Capitol Square and were there inspected by His Excellency, the Governor.
