$75, TO any one who would retire and give
him bis place, but without success.
THE GOVERNMENT PREPARING TO PROTECT THE
UNION MEN IN VIRGINIA AND MARYLAND.
The course taken by the Union mer-
chants and citizens Of Wheeling, as declared
at late public meeting, 10 which they re-

proclaimed herself a member Of the South
ern confederacy, has already been initiated
at other places 10 Northwestern Virginia.
In view Of this, the Government is rapidly
taking measures to insure protection. Com
missary General Erwin, OF Pennsylvania,
has been sent to Pittsburg to form camp.
and 1000 regulars from Carlisle Barracks
and 600 horses, have already gone for
ward to that city. Five or six Pennsylva-
MIA regiments will soon follow and take po-
sition there or In the vicinity. Gov Den
