Company "B.''-We understand this COM
pany organized few nights since by the elec-
ton of Samuel r. E-itehel as Captain, and
Charles S. Morgan, Jr., as First Sergeant
The best spirit prevailed, and the members
seemed determined TO enter the service with
as little delay as possible. Captain Mitchell
is we'll known as a skillful and accom- plished
officer; and Sergeant Morgan having gone
through the drills at West Point, is no doubt
the very man for the position. The Howit-
zers Company "F," and this corps, have
united in securing the Blues old Armory, on
Franklin street, as their drill-room, and Com
pany "B'' commences to 'smark time'' Monday
night. Success to them.

JUDGE DoUaLAs.-The Washington CORES
pondent of the Philadelphia American says:
The condition of Judge Douglas health has
been the subject of much contradictory COM
ment in the newspapers, owing to misstate-
ments made here with motives which are very
difficult to comprehend. According to the
opinions of his two experienced and skillful
physicians, Dr. Garnett and DR.. Miller, he has
been in serious danger for a week past, and an
intense sufferer throughout, from severe at
tack of gout, which has reached the stomach,
and resisted the best treatment and attention.
The symptoms last night were generally more
encouraging than they had been, though in
terrupted at intervals by threatening strug-
giles of this painful and critical disease. A
vigorous constitution has so far sustained him,
and this is the best hope OF his medical attend
ants. This afiiiction has been rendered doubly
severe by the protraeted, and at times, alarm
ing illness of Mrs. Douglas, who, for obvious
reasons, has not been permitted to know the
extent of her husband's real danger.
