the defence Of the counry-while our citizens in
all quarters are rendering their services TO the gov
eminent by thousands for the defence Of the nation
we cannot doubt that the patriotic citizens of
Maine, though far distant from the Of conflict,
will with alacrity and prompttude come forward
and manifest their desire TO participate in the dam
gers and honors of this war. ..,., .., ...- e. .
"In Massachusetts volunteers are coming forward
in whole companies. The same ie true In Rhode
Island, N. York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia,
and in fact in most of the States while through the
whole South and West the number of volunteers Of
fered greatly exceed the acquisitions Of the govern
ment In the little State Of Louisiana alone, it is
reported that than ten thousand volunteers are
ready to rush into the conflict at the call of their
country while in Texas in some counties, the pop
uhton volunteer almost in mass.
"Wth this spirit of enthusiasm now prevailing in
the country, the sturdy citizens of Maine will not
be found in the back ground. In consequence of
the breaking down of our militia system, will be-
come necessary TO fill up the ranks Of existing in
dependent companies by recruits to organise new
ones with an especial view to this contingency.
The latter method win probably be generally pre-
ferred, as by new movement the right kind Of men
will unite together" ''
Seventeen companies had reported themselves
to the governor as ready for service, and the ten
above named are received as first in order of report
"The seventeen companies reported at Tusca-
oosa contains seven of the companies who have
reached the city We might say eight, as the Sim
ter volunteers have since been divided into two
companies. The RiHemen, State Artillery, Dallas
volunteers, Talladega volunteers, and Montgomery
Rihemen, now in camp here, are not among the
companies mustered on the governors list. With
the new Sumter company, these make % compa-
MES organized and ready for service-hirteen com.
panies more than the governor is asked for in his
letter from the Secretary Of War. But we find in
the Washington Union a schedule Of the troops re-
CURED for enrolment, as well as for immediate ser
vice, half regiment or Eve companies more are re-
CURED from this State to be kept in readiness 30
that on the face of the orders only fifteen companies
will be wanted from the State, and thirty-three are
ready. OF these ten have already been mustered
into the service Of the United States, under the
authority of Gen. Ganes-and OF these ten COM
panies three only, or most four, among those
Of the companies indicated by the governor as re-
ceiyed in the order Of their reports to him"
