would call attention to the advertisement of 1t.
Walbach, in our columns for some DAYS past,

men, as recruits, to serve with mountain
howltzer and rocket batteries in the existing
war with Mexico. Tho armament of these bat

musouetoons. We would particularly call
attention to the closing paragraph of the ad-
vertisement. where it IS stated that persons in
en6slino can be- dischnrged if de,irous al m. end
of The ,car. In this respect the fact of Joining
these light batteries is only tantamount to
volunteering, for all volunteers now called out
are TO serve until the end of the war, when
these batteries will be of no further service
In other respects the men are better off than
the volunteers, for forming part of the regular
force, and under command of experienced Of
icers, they will be better supplied with cloth
ing and provisions, and moro regularly paid.
The pay is better than the volunteersan other
troops. We understand that lille the private
of volunteers receives " per month, private
in this corps has -; a Corporal of volunteers
$40, and Sergeant SIS per month; while Ser
geants of the Howitzer Batteries receive from
SIS to $50 per month; the allowance for cloth
ing, &c., being the same for both corps. In
