SOME MORE WANTED.

We are requested by 1t. S. L. Fremont to
state, that five Companies have been mustered
into service at this place. There are, howev-
er, a few more Volunteers wanted to make
some of these Companies full, viz: For Wayne,
Cumberland, Edgecombe, and New Hanover
These Companies are, nevertheless, nearly
complete, and only few more are wanted to
make them full. We would take occasion
here to state, that DR.. PRICES Company re-
quires only about or more men, and the
I'd Edgecombe Company only about 49,
These two Companies, we have every reason
to believe, will be full in few days Dr. PRICE
Is receiving recruits every day. and Gen Will
son left here, in the Cars on Sunday, for Edge
combe. When he returns, he will undoubt.
eddy bring with him men enough 10 complete
the ID Edgecombe Company. We hope, too
that the Wayne and Cumberland Companies
will be full in short time.
We would say to those who may moi
know it already, that the State gives each Vol.
unteer $40 as bounty money; and the U. S
gives SCI in advance for months clothing
and in addition to the above, there is bill be-
fore Congress, which will undoubtedly pas:
into law, that gives to each Volunteer l6C
acres of land, in addition to their MONTH,
pay.
So come on, brave sons of Carolina, and fill
up the Regiment.

"Gen. Worth has issued an order in Saltil-

come in contact with razor for months must
now come to the scratch. The BARRIERS OF
Saltillo no doubt think it very judicious or

cher ami of Worth's, was at first excused from
the general shearing, but was like to raise a

to the operation"
