CAVALRY CoNPANY.-We understand that
a move is on foot to raise company Of cavalry
in this county in compliance with the prOvis-
ions Of Gov. Downey's proclamation, calling for
troops to meet the requisition Of the President
Of the United States. A recruiting Office has
been opened in Watsonville, and in the vicinity
Of Santa Cruz there are twenty-five or more
who have expressed their willingness to enlist.
We have no doubt that with well directed and
proper efforts, full company could be raised
in a very short time. The men are we'll adap-
ted for Cavalry or Light Artillery service, being
accustomed To the use Of horses and most of
them expert hOrsemen, and will make good SOL
diers in either Of these branches of the service.

GEN. ETHAN A. HIrHcocK.-In alludine
to the fact that Gen. Ethan A. Hitchcock. late
lnspector-General in the United States Army.
has in the present crisis, offered his services to
the Government, the papers add the following
notice OF the distinguished officer: "Gen. Hitch
COCK graduated at West Point in 1917, entering
first the artillery but afterward, at his own re
quest, being transferred to the infantry. He
was on duty for some time at the Military Acd-
emy, was then charged with the superinten-
dence OF the Northwestern Indian Department,
and subsequently served in florida, and in the
Mexican war, where he was twice breveted. He
was later sent to the Pacific Coast os Military
Comnlandant Of that division, and in 1855 re-
signed his commission on account of difficult
ty with JEFF. Davis, then Secretary of War.
His knowledge, genera! experience, and high
personal character, render him q most desira-
BILE acquisition to the service.

During the call of the Buffalo Committee on
Hon. Joseph Holt, at the Falls, one of the
number asked the Judge what he thought of
Senator Breckenridge. Mr.. Holt replied that
he could not answer the question better than
by relating an anecdote, which he did as fol-

inridge," inquired Kentuckian Of Humphrey
Marshall the other day. "Why, sir," replied
Marshall, "He is the deadest man alive except

Such is the position and such has been the
course Of the leading organ of the Republican

We oppose any thing that even tends to mob vio-
lence, but should not the strong arm of the law
be evoked and exercised to stop press which for
months has been advocating secession, a separa-

war Prospects.

But little information can be gained as to the
movements and situation of the Federal forces.
This much is known, however, that great activity
and energy prevails in both the Military and
Naval Departments. The extraordinary sagacity,
skill and activity of General MCCLELLAN has
been successfully employed in the reorganization
of the army of the Potomac, so that it is now in
all respects in a more efficient condition than
previous to the unfortunate repulse at Bull Run.
The same activity and energy is displayed in
the army of the West. Troops are rapidly
being concentrated at st. Louis and other
points in that neighborhood and every pre-
paraton is being made for vigorous and
successful campaign. But little is known of the
army in Western Virginia, its present position.
1t is altogether probable that Gen. RosEcRANs
will be able to maintain his position until renfor
ced for aggressive movements upon the enemy.
The successful naval expedition under Gen. But
LER and Commodore STRINGHAM against Fort
Hatteras, has inspired new confidence and zeal
in every department of the Government This
exploit will be soon followed by others of a sim
liar character The enemy has a coast of twelve
InieS U WHICH must necessarily
scatter his forces, while select the points
of attack, with ample mems to insure success.
Next moath the Federal forces east and west will
undoubtedly be prepared for an onward combined
movement, and at the same time we presume
there will be naval movements to divert the at
tention of the enemy. In few weeks we may look
for stirring which will fully test the strength
and resources of the Confederates. While the
citizen knows but little us to the operations of
own Government the rebels have carefully
concealed their preparations and resources. They
have undoubtedly made every effort to meet the
issue before them, and not until the shock of war
shall we know their ability to meet the struggle.
But we have every confidence that the Consttu-
ton with all its guarantees will be maintained
and that the Union, with all the blessings it has
dispensed and can bestow if continued, will be
preserved. That such may be the result should
be the prayer of every patriotic heart.

The system of Mastering and Inspec-
ton.

In all probability the plan of mastering and
inspecting a recruit is u mystery to a number of
readers. Hence a description of the system pur
sued to convert a civilian into a United States
soldier may not be unnteresung. We therefore
copy the following item from the New York En-
press, showing how it is done there:
1.-The first step taken by the recruit is to sign
his name TO the muster roll of the company in
which he enliSts. The recruiting officer then fills
in on the roll the age and nativity of the recruit.
When a sufficient number of men are gathered to
form n company which, under the State organi-
cation must be - at least they brought to the
Volunteers Depot, Gen. Yates commanding, To-
Gated at the City Arsenal, corner of White and
Elm streets. Here one OF the State Inspectors,
Col. Zook or Major Bosworth, proceeds TO count
the recruits present, aud see if it agrees with the
original number ON the muster roll of the COM
pany--a copy of which must also be in the hands
of the company officer. LII the number is correct
the medical inspection is proceeded with by DIR.
A. B. Mott. The recruit is required to roll up
his pantaloons above the knee, and stand bare
footed, with his arms elevated above his shoulder
He then works the muscles of his hands freely for
few moments, after which the recruits, one by
one, taken aside and privately examined.
Those who are rejected by the Medical Inspector
then leave the ranks, and the men fall into line
again.
/ The mastering officer then proceeds thu ough
the ranks and rejects all who appear incapacita-
ted on account OF age. or apparent want OF phys
icat strength. The roll is then called, and each
man. rs he answers, steps to the front of the in
spector, and passes to another portion OF the
room When all have thus answered, the com
pany is formed on three sides of square, the Of
/ ficers being in the centre. The inspector then
steps to the front, and tells the men that they are
about to take an oath which will bind them into
the service, and explains the consequences of dis
obeying it. An opportunity is given to all those
who do not desire to take the oath to retire from
the ranks, after whics all present stand bare
headed and. with the right hand appraised. take
the oath prescribed When this is done. a requi-
sition is drawn by Capt Thomas Allcock, the aid
of Gen. Yates. upon Gen. Arthur, which, on be
ing counfersigned by General Yates, entities the
men thus recruited to receive rations and quarters

YER7S
Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,

The most efectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this everywhere
prevailing fatal mciady. Ii Is combined from the
most active remedals that have been discovered
for the expurgation of the foul disorder from the
blood, and the rescue of the system from its de-
structive consequences. Hence it should be en-
employed for the of not only Serofula, but
also those other affections which arise from it,
such as Eruptive and Skin Diseases, ST. Anthony's
Fire. Rose, Erysipelas, Pimples Pustnles. Blotch-
es, Blains and Boils, Tumors, letter and Salt
Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm. Rheumatism,
Syphilitic and Mecurial Diseases, Dropsy, Dys-
pepsia, Debility, and, indeed, all Complaints
arising from Initiated or Impure Blood. The
popular beliefin "mpurity of the blood" is found
ed in truth, for Scrofula is degeneration of the
blood. The particular purpose and virtue of
this Sarsaparilla is to purify and regenerate this
vital fluid, without which sound health is impos-
sible in contaminated constitutions.

MEDICAL.
SCrofula, or Kings Evil,

Is constitutional disease a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes Inflated, weak
and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades
the whole body, and may burst out in disease on
any part Oft. No organ is free from its attacks,
nor is there one which it may not destroy. The
scroiulous faint is variously caused by mercurial
disease, low living, disordered or unhealthy food,
impure air, filth and filthy habits the depressing
vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection.
Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the
constitution, descending '.from parents to chill
dren unto the third and fourth generations; indeed
it seems to be the rod of Him who says: 81 will
visit the iniquiteS of the fathers upon their chill
dren.'
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood OF corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver and internal organs is termed
bercies; IN the glands, swelngs; and on the
face, eruptons or Sores This foul corruption,
which genders in the blood, depresses the ener-
giles OF life, so that scrofulous constitutions not
only suffer from scroiulous complaints, but they
have far less power to withstand the attacks of
other diseases; consequently vast numbers perish
10y disorders which, although not scrofulous in
their nature are still rendered fatal by this faint
in the system. Most of the consumption which
decimates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many de
structive diseases of the liver, kidneys. brain, and
indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are ag
gravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous
their persons are invaded by this lurking intec-
ton, and their health is undermined by it. To
cleanse it from the system must renovate the
blood by Alternative medicine, and invgorate
it by healthy food and exercise. Such Il medicine
