MILLEDG EvILLE, June 17.---Colonel
Newman has just arrived from ST. Mary 5,
and has received orders from the comman-
der in chief to collect number of volun-
seers az Dublin, it'll view TO proceed i'm
mediately to Point Pctre. The men viii
be taken from General Browns & Scott's
brig AIDES, and will assemble at Dghlin on
OF before the 18th Of July. As soon as the
service of those troops may expire, calls
will be made upon the remaining br:gades !;
orders will be issued in due time fine
quota from thisstate, (S50O. )Will constitute
about one eighth of the militi2.
24.-rhe order Of the Governor for raising
Volunteers to reinforce the United States
troops before Augustine. calls for mot less
than one hundred and fifty men," who are
to act as an auxiliary force to Gel. Smith
until sufficient number OF regular troops
shall be sent to that station BY the General
Government. Their term of service ex-
Pires within twenty days after they shall ar
rive at Point Petre. We believe no attempt
will be made by our government to take
the fortress until after declaration of war
In the mean time, for the security of Colonel
Smiths troops, who have already been at
tackled by the garrison, and who may not be
sufficiently strong to maintain their ground
it the Spaniards should be reinforced, it
has been thought prudent to call forth for
a limited service, the number of volunteers
already mentioned. Journal.

The Spanish papers received last week, IN

blockade of the adjacent coast from Puerto
Santa Maria to Ayamonte, IN order TO pre-
yentthe conveyance of supphesto the enemy.
An official notification to this effect has been
transmitted to the Spanish Consul General at
London. Such ships only will be allowed to
pass as are licensed by the Governments TO
assist the patriotic troops-andto obstruct all
others, TO whom severe expedients will be
employed, as are usual in the like cases, and
allowed by the acknowledged law OF nations,
and the subsisting treaties between Spain, her
allies, and neutral powers. The measures a
dopted by the Spanish government upon this
occasion, have been rendered necessary by
the introduction of supplies to the enemy In
American bottoms.--We hope the British na-

fectual.

@ORDER OF THE DAY.
"The Marshal has already informed the Ge-
nerals under his command, that Immediately
as we entered Prussia we found ourselves In
friendly country. His excellency reminds
the troops of his army of this. Heis satisfi-
ed with their conduct during the march, and
will consider it as his duty to give an account
of it to our beloved monarch, who wishes that
his troops should endeavour to distinguish
themselves by their good discipline.
[" The Marshal doubts not that they will
continue to conduct themselves in the same
manner, as well during their stay in the Prus-
sian States as in the marches which they may
vet have to make. In all respects the troops
ought TO observe the most strict discipline, to
fail in that is to forget their duty. The small
est offence in a friendly country is a crime.
We ought to exert all our efforts TO maintain
good understanding with the inhabitants as,
well as with the military-The Marshall re-
lies on the spirit which animates the army.

of the perfect understanding which reigns be-
tween Prussia and France, these troops belong
to a friendly power, must be received and
treated with care and consideration. The COM
