.cral of tho men complaining of coughs,
colds, &C., but as yet we have sent no one to lilo
Hospital. We had orders today to appear at
the Fair Grounds this evening at 81 O'Clock to
consider the matter of volunteering for tho Gun
icderate States, and hearing speech from Gen.
Samuel MCGOWAN, and others; but before the
whole Of the Regiment had assembled ut Head
quarters. heavy shower Of rain fell, SO that
we were ordered to " break ranks" and MI few
Tor quarters. l guess we will try it again to.
morrow, though no orders have boon issued TO-
that effect yet. Some Of our company arc viii
ling to volunteer under any and all circumsan-
ccs; others would rather wait awhile and see
where when, how, and under whom they ore to
60 into the service Of the Cunfedcrates.
For tho benefit Of our company and those who
might wish to write to us or send US packages,
