There ere fftesn Thousand volunteers in New
York, and ten thousand in Ohio, awaiting or
ders from here to come on, and the Ulster
County Regiment Of your State ID understood
to have been ordered honas again, deapairing
Of being called into service, and euppos;ng
that government does not want them. On
the contrary, Government wants them all, and
orders them to this point juat as fast IS 1t RI.
ccives notice thst they are ready to march. II
not ordered here, it Is becauee the State Gov
crnor has failed to notify the War Department
that the troops arc ready to come The mo-
Of march is issued, but it Is the business Of

reaches Washington.

they can be other wise located, and abundant
provisions.
As to batteries upon The Potomac, none
have been erected up to this time, nor can
they be, for the ouly points where works
could be erected are constantly and thorough
il watched and there are seven armed EteqE1-

This exciting rulnor is circuiatfrg that or.

attack and dfspersc the rebel forces in thst
vicinity Immediately after the expiration OF
DENTS Proclamation. This is erroneous
While Fort Plekena is now fully prepared to
withstand d Elk months siege, the federal force
there is not get considered strong enough to
attack the rebels, as large force would be
necessary not only to put the traitors to flight
4 in the first instance, but to publicly garrlt on
AID hold the public property At Pensacola
after 1t Is recaptured. The rebels, in The
meantime, arc e1hausting their money, and
demoTatizing and discou1asing their men. L
they can only be betrayed into the weakness:
Of attempting to play the Sumter game ore,
again, they will receive needed and valuable
Lesson.
