VOLUNTEER BILL.

The ri. of K. are prosecuting the tvar-nea-

Monday the bill was before them, to autho-
rise the +. U. ). to accept and organize Ger
tain volunteer military corps. All seem
willing (says the National intcliigencer) to
raise them; hst there is. much diversity of
Iopinion as ITO the best fnDde of organizing
them. lfthey:stre- oDrcffea by. the States, &
considered in the light. a militia, there are
doubts whether they ca9Fbe sel.t pift of.the
U. ST o6itser1d by the Fl. sids,it,ruieler
an engagement for a limited tinIe,t in what
viii they differ from regular troops, save
only in the length of the engagement -
On Monday, the Committcc of the
whole oseEgd reported the amendatory
Dill with araehdments---so that b. the bill as
it then stood, this corps will be a volunteer
militia Corps, whose officers are appointed
by the S'afeS.-We understand, that the bii
'ould perhaps pass the II. OF H. Oh We'd
ncsi,ay.
The point, above stated, seems to MS most
clearly to rest on this circumstance On zyhQf

TO The PATRONS OF THE VIRGINIA
ARGUS.

At a very great expence, the proprietor, has
lately procured entire new fonts of TYPE for this
paper, and INCREASED the size of it considerably.
Il Is believed that it now contains a quantity OF
matter nearly equal to any paper printed IN A.
merica. The price (the same as in the year
1898, when it commenced) is 30 per cent lower
than the other papers of this city. Notwith-
stansiin; this, however, and the encreased price
oftypes, paper, sc. which cannot be obtained
but for cash, the subscription will not be raised
TO bunctaai subscribers. But in justice to him
self the printer gives this early notice to his pa
irons, that from and after the first day of the
year 1912, the paper will be charged at the
rate of FIVE DOLLARS per annum to all those
who do not pay their subscriptions in the course
Of the current year.-The opportunities by Pri-
vate conycyances continually occurring thro'-
out the year from every part of the State to
Richmond, (particularly by the Members OF the
Legislature AMI the SheriiIs) and the facility
afforded by the mails which pass through every
neigbbourhood at least once q fortnight, W III
lpsve those disposed to make refntttInces, no
excuse for not doing so.-No subscription viii
hereafter be taken for less than six months,
nor will the paper be discontinued till all ar
rearages are paid.

verbal information by Mr.. Lyons, we are en-

1t appears, beyond doubt, that in most of
the skirmjshes with the enemy, our army
have been unsuccessful-that the balance

pecta,ons raised Of Maiden being taken be-
fore this time, that our army have broken
ND their head quarters at Sandwich and eUa-
cuated Canada. Tine whole army re-cros-
.ed the river OF the night OF the 9TH instant,
and encamped al Detroit, leaving only Ma
ior Denny, with about 200 men, in small
. fort on the opposite side. On the next day,
hgalso received orders from General Hull
30 Darn his fort and ie-crosS the river, which
was Immediately executed. The reasons

NEW PATRIOTIC SONG.

CoLUMBIANs, rouse to glory,
the trump of WAR alarms,
Around the tree of Liberty,
Come buckle on your arms
Defend the glorious heritage
Your fathers valor won;
SO SHALL fame crown each name,
When the day ofbattle's done,
Long has our Country's vengeance,
In mild forbcarance slept,
While free-born sons of Liberty
II bloody bondage wept-
Let now, since peacein WAR must cease,
Your vaior teach the foe,
Whilst their blood swells the flood,
Taat tits VENGEANCE strikes the blow.
The naughty fleets of Britain
.Assailed your native shore,
Around each bay, to seek for prey,
rleir thuad'r,ng cannon roar,
Bat RODGERS and DECATUR soon
Their daring crest shall lower
Or their slain, on the main.
Shall CoLUMBIA'S EAGLE soar.
Soon on the ftLai.s Of .d6rGhaN
Oar hardy sons shall rear,
The banner tree Of Liberty,
To naughty Dritam's tear.
Nor quit the glorious field,
TIL Iaurc!s uobly deck
Every head, quick or dead,
Ok the coHqH'ro'sy Qae5ec
CoLuMBIANs love their liberty,
Their country and tacir God,
M kingly power shall IN Ike them cover,
They dread no tyraut's nod;
Their happy coumtry's destiny
Is, EVER TO BE FREE;
-And they'll fight for every right,
Their land aud liberty.
Then rouse, Columbiaps, rush to arms
0oeyyour coun;ry's call;
:Your ;nGrto " Dc4th ~ Victory :"
Live gloriously or fall
Preserve the precious heritage,
Your fathers valor won;
So shall fame crown each name,
When the day Of battles done.
