HilIsborough, Sept. 0, 1861.
Capt. JAS. w. WILSON My Dear Sir
A few of the citizens Of Hillsborough and
its surroundings, having heard Of the desti-
tuition Of some Irish families in your section
Of country, whose husbands are Volunteers
in Capt. kirkland's Company, 9th Regiment
n. G. State Troops, now at Manassas, have
thrown together the amount you will find in
the enclosed check. (say $4,000 and re-
quest me to forward the same to you to be
distributed. BY this act Of liberality they
mean no reflection upon your portion of the
State. but as an expression Of their willing
ness to assist those who have shown their
loyalty by battling for our rights and liber-
ties. no matter who they are, or from what
country they have come.
Hoping that this mite may alleviate to
some extent the wants Of the more necessi-
tous Of those families. and the heart Of the
poor soldier be encouraged thereby, re-
main your friend. truly,
JOHN U. KIRKLAND.

Yates have not esen received their bounty !,
which should have been promptly paid at
their enlistment. Several regiments around
US have been paid. All in this brigade have
got their pay. understand, except ourselves
