On Sunday morning last, about 500 hearty
fine looking men Of the moods took up their
march from this place for the Crock nation
about three fourths of them from the upper
part of this district and the remainder from
the upper part Of Greenville-oe their march
they were joined by another company from
the lower end of this district, and at AbbevilIc
by one more from Creenville, which, with re-
Inducements from Edge6eld and Abbeville,
had increased their number on Thursday
morning to e6l. They are by this time one
days march in tho state Of Georgia, and If we
may Judge from the number who since their
departure have followed on from this neigh
borhood to join them as Volunteers, they are
now 5000 strong. These are part OF the
quota of this state Of the 100000 militia draft
ed nearly two years since, for the service Of
the u. States, and now called for by General
Pinckney. Of the number marched from
this place, Capt. Kciiy's troop of cavalry, part

chem credit, uniformed in black OF their own
manufacture, we'll mounted aud bear skin'd

country much service and themselves honor.
