From the Albany Argus, May 20.
Governor Wright returned to the city on Wed
nesday, from st. Lawrence, and Immediately issued
the general ORDER" in compliance with the requi-
sition from the President through the Secretary Of
War, which was received here on Friday. The re-
question: 1t will be seem calls for seven regiments of
volunteer nfantry-a number which, had it been
quadrupled, there can be no doubt would have been
as promptly flied up from this State, the indica-
tons are that the present quota will be. Indeed,
from the indications already furnished Of the read
ness of citizens in all parts Of the State to take part
in the conflict so glorousy begun, and to aid in
prosecuting it to speedy and glorious termination,
we suspect that the difficulty will be in awarding the
hoRors and pers of the service among the appli.
cants, SO numerous already have been the informal
tenders Of volunteers from all quarters. Probably
double the number required from New York have
already signfed to the Executive that they are con
hand" Formal applications, nevertheless, must be
made-and will be received until the 5th proxino
The form of the applications, so far as they come
from existing organizations, is probably well enough
understood. The form of an application from
new association of volunteers will no doubt be pro-
mulgated in due time, by the proper department.

rst Lieutenant one second lieutenant, four sergeants,
four corporals, two musicians, and sxty-four pr-
