THE MILITARY Force OF PENIS YLvANIA.-The
Harrisburg Union says:
From official sources learn that the whole
number OF organized volunteer companies in this
State is about 500, averaging about 40 men to
company, making an aggregate of over 10000 uni
formed volunteers. The entire military force of
the State is about 355, 900 capable of military
duty. The arms of the State are all in the posses
sion of the volunteer companies, and comprise
l2,080 muskets, 4,706 rifles, 2,S09 cavalry swords
and sabres, 3,147 pistols, SO pieces of ordnance,
being six pound bronze cannon. of the above
there are only about 2 500 muskets of the new
model, 1000 improved rifles, and about 500 cavalry
swords The balance unfit for active service,
being mostly of the heavy old hint-lock. The SO
pieces of ordnance are in good condition, with the
exception of the carriages. From the above it will
be seen that the volunteers of the State have but
1900 effective sma-arms, leaving actual deficit
for them alone of IA S00 No arms are furnished
to the militia by the State itself. All that
issued to the militia furnished by the United
States to Pennsylvania.
NORTHERN MEN EXPELLED FROM THE SoUrH.-Not-
withstanding repeated exposures of the utter falsty
of nine etentbs of the alleged expusions of North
citizens from Southern soil, the statements of
| ragged impoStors, though never SO absurd or i'm
! probable, continue to be caught up and dissent
mated by the partisan press for the purpose of
! nhaming the already too highly excited sectional
passions OF the country The latest tale of "South-
ern oppression" that of VIM. II. Turner, hailing
| from Mancb ester, N. H., who gave to the New
| York Tribune an account of alleged Imprisonment
and ill-treatment at Charleston, S. C.,is pro-
nounced by the Boston Journal-a candid Repubi-
can journal-to be unmtigated trash, and the much
abused Turner himself knave. The journal says:
The records of the Boston Society for the pre-
ventlon of paupersm show that man giving the
same name applied to the secretary, Mr.. Wood
ward, for assistance as long ago as January 5. He
told story somewhat similar to that in the Tri-
bune, though differing in essential PARTICULARS
Some of his statements were ascertained to be
| false, and he was set down as an impostor.
