Many persons desire to know what provis-
ion is made BY tie government for the cloth
ing Of volunteers in the Confederate service.
For the information sought, they are refer
red to a Law Of the Confederate Congress,
passed on the 91st March, 1861. The follow
ing is the second section Of an ~amendatory act
passed on tha day:
That the fourth section Of the act Of March
6, 1861, TO provide for the public d~efense,' be
amended as follows, viz There shall be al
lowed to each volunteer, % be paid to them on
the first muster and pay roll after being re-
ceiveG and mustered into the service of the
Confederate States, the sum Of twenty one
dollars In lieu OF clothing for six months and
thereafter the same allowance in money at
every subsequent period = service for Six
months in lieu Of clothing: Provided, that the
price Of all clothing in kind received By said
volunteers from the Confederate States gov
eminent shall be deducted first from the money
thus allowed and if that sum be not sufficient
the balance 8 al be charged for stoppage on
the muster and pay rolls; and that al accounts
arising from contracts, agreements or arrange
ments for furnishing clio hing for volunteers,
10 be duly certified By the company command
ers, shaH be paid out OF the said semi-annusl
allowance Of money.
Il thus appears that ample provision is
made by the government for clothing, and that
any merchant, furnishing volunteer companies
upon contract With the company commander,
have ample security for the outlay, when they
obtain certificates to their contracts.
