THE MILITARY BILL IN THE HOUSE.

On yesterday (Monday) in Committee of
the whole, the House had u der considera-
ton the Military Bill, reported by Ger.
Clark, and heretofore mentioned in our
columns.
The feeling manifested by the House to-
wards this necessary measure OF defence
providing for the arping and equipment OF
the volunteer militia of the State was high
ly gratifying. Patriotic speeches were made
in favor of the measure by Messrs. Clark,
Lake, El is, of Copiah, Bradford, Dean and
Love- A test vote was taken on motion
of Mr., Sanders, of Holmes, to appropriat'
one hundred and twenty thousand dollars
to supply volunteer militia companies with
arms and equipments, and no serious objec'
ton was urged against it, while disposi
tion was manifested to appropriate larger
sum.
The bill was referred to the Committee
on Military Affairs that it might be perfect
ed and put in shape to meet the views Of
the House. Mississippian.
