INDEPENDENT CAMPS.


Already five full regiments mustered for the State
requisitiOn have been sent forward-among them
those the Sickles Brigade the United States Chas
seurs the Lincoln Cavalry, the Harris Light Cava-
~, and the Mounted Riflemen, and which may be
properly counted State regiments, are also at the
seat Of war These are, of course in addition to the
original thrty-eght and the four subsequently num-
bered making forty-two. 1t will be seen that with
out the unnumbered regiments the recent reputation
might be more than filled by the volunteers already
in camp. Recruiting goes briskly on. BY the let OF
January next it would undoubtedly be possible to
raise sufficient number to make, with those In the
field, the total number Of the State 100000.
TENTH LEGION.
This corps now encamped at Camp Van Wyek, +"
Newburgh, will perhaps, be one of the best regi-
ments which has been organized In our State since
the commencement Of hostilities. About the LIST Of
June last the Hon. G. II. Van Wyck conceived the
idea of forming regiment out Of the begerent ma
terial Of the Xth Congressional District. As q
nucleus he accepted Fullertons Company Of New
burgh, Capt. McGinnesss Company OF Middletown,
Capt. Walters Company of Monticello, and Capt.
Reaney's Company Of Newburgh, and commenced
recruiting from the rugged hills Of Sullivan and the
fertile valleys OF Orange hoping from those localities
TO obtain enough to swell tho ranks to the max
imum number. The State Board, however, refused to
detach the companies aforementioned, which had
already been mustered into other regiments, and con
sequently the work was commenced with the mate
rial which that District afforded. The labors Of Mr.
Doyle, and Capts. Maxwell and Evans, have proved
successful, and the organization which has been
called the Tenth Legion now numbers 600 men,.
At recent meeting of the line officers Mr.. Van
Wyck was chosen Colonel and Lieut.. Ellis Lieut..
Colonel, and Jacob Sharp Major. OF the ColonePs
military ability we are not prepared 10 speak, but
that he will carefully look after the physical wants
of bis command and see that every man receives bis
Just dues, we have the most ample assurance Lieut..
Col. Ellis was formerly Captain Of the howiizer
corps Of the list Regiment n. Y; >. NJ, and is a
splendid disciplnarisn. Major Sharp is graduate
Of West Point. The regiment will break up its en-
campment in about fortnight and Immediately
Tenth District about presenting the command
with stand of coors, and have taken the requisite
steps in that direction at meeting held at the Ever
EFT House.

the city TO or from the seat Of war; The Temporary
