HOUSE REPRESENTATIVE.
November as.

November %.
Mr.. Talmadge offered the following
resolution: .
ResefSed, That the Secretary for the
Department Of War: be direeted to lay
before this House q statement Of the res
pective rumbers Of officers, non-com:
missiohed officers and soldiers, compos-
ing the army ofthe y. s. noting the NUM-
bers Wanting TO complete the present e.
tablishment. -
RessiUed, That the Secretary for the
Department OF War be directed to lay
before this House astatoment ofthe res
Peetive numbers Of volunteers, either Of
artillery. cavalry, Of Infantry, whose
ssrvices have been offered and accepted,
IN pursuance Of the actentitled, An act
suthori.ing the President OF the z. S.tO
accept the service ofa number OF volun-
tesr companies, not exceeding $4,000
nea."
Which being read.
Mr.. Talmadge said, that It would be
remembered when the President had
transmitted his message to Congress nj
the opening of the session, one part oft
related to what might be the probable
situation of,he country, and to tie needs
sity that might exist for raising a regular
army. MI. r. presumed that every ren-
deman on the Aoor felt the same ssnsi-
nent with respect TO the importance Of
the preservation Of the honor of the m.
ton, and in order tha, they migh,be pre-.
pared to meet any possible event, ii be.
came essentially necessary 20 know What
was our actual force. This was the OBJ
iect Of the FIRST resolution which he had
proposed. He wished 20 know not only
wha, that force was, but how far i vas
deficient. Another reason which opera
ted strongly on HE mind was thar III.
House never failed az each session 10 "a,
money for the support Of the army and
navy Of the u. States; they certainly
could NO. make the exact appropriations
required, without knowing what the &C.
tuai force Of the army was.
With respectto the second resolution.
II would be RENE mbsred that an act Sas
passed Id February, 1907, authoris ing
the Freeldens 20 accept ct the services I'll
any humber Of volunteers, nor exceed
ing 10000. which set wa 10 remain. in
force for two years. II became impor-
tant 20 know how far volunteer eonnpa-
mics had offered, and how far this force
might be btoA sht into the field in case Of
emergency. An net hsd also passed IA
April, 1906. auihorising the Preside 1t
to call out ioo, 900 militia, 10 Sontinne
IN force two /, ears from It's date, and
would of course expire next April
These were the different species Of force
on which the President could calculate
on an emergency. That the HOUSE
might know the exact force Of the union,
and how far Il might be relied on were
the reasons which induced him TO move
these resolutions atthis time.

Many people in this degenerate age of The
world, make conftant practice Of ieeking
thelr sie44u-es on that holy day, and indulge
themielves "a IrreguIarity and excefs more, if
Ponibie, on that day, than on any other.
Lei os iovk into our populous towns and

Thele are evils in the midi of US. Thefe

the writer OF the communication in the Argus,
relative to an expedition of the conduct of the
public guard, which appeared in the Enquirer
of the 10th inf.
Whether this refufal of Mr.. PIeafants pro-
ceeds from his characteristic: caution, or, in ODE
dience to an Injunction of fecrecy from the wr-
ter, is not known.
The author of the communication in the
Enquirer, takes this method of informing the
writer in the Argus how he may make it Known,
whether, or not, he is afraid to leave his name
at the office of the Enquirer: 1t will depend
upon his character, when his name can be
known, whether his milerable traih has defery-
cd even thefe lines.
Thus much, for the prefent, to the writer of
the communication in the Argus: ihort ex-
PLANTATION is due to the public.
1t did not appear on the examination ofEYIi-
liam Nab that Mr.. John Guy had been ihot at
by centne, beeauye Mr.. John Gay 4vnJ not ex.
an'ined; but the fact is that MIR. John Guy
qoaJ thot at by ccntinel, which he will afIert
TO the Argus gentleman or any other perfon :;
and 1t is ALTO fact, that Mr.. George Picket and
Mr. Pcyton Randolph were likewife fhot at.
Whether William Nalh received forty lalhes.
or no lalhes, know not; it was originally ad-
vanced alphabetically, as report--that report
fill prevails-I believe it to be true-but nei
ther TOR Its truth or its falfehood am anfver-
able.
The fentence Immediately fucceeding the re-
mark concerning Mr.. Guy and the examination
of Nafh, can only be noticed in ONE WAY.
AS am dealer in poetry, 70 will conclude
with the Argus man i: hereafter he fiall have
profe, if he will do me the honour to let me
know his name -
