Army lNrEILIGENCE.-There are now over 1000
recruits on Governors Island-a larger number
than has before been there at time for many
years past. This accumulation of troops is partly
caused by the Governments delay in sending
them to Southern points, on account Of the sick
ness at New Orleans, through which they must
pass. The number has been, however, greatly
augmented by the difficulty that poor people have
in getting work and the apprehension Of still
harder times this winter. About nine-tenths Of
those who enlist foreigners.
On the Goth inst. 800 recruits will leave the
island for California to fill up the 9th infantry in
the army OF the Pacific. Texas aud New Mexico
will be supplied by drafts from the barracks At
Newport, Ny, and Carlisle, Pa.
