was made for troops. Thousands of the
sturdy SONS of Illinois, who were disappoint-
ed in the first and second calls, now rush in
their claims for the supposed requisition on
Governor Yates for additional troops. No
more practical test of the patriotism of our
citizens could be presented than the fact
that already sufficient number of compa-
mics have been rendered to form twenty-five
infantry regiments, five additional regiments
of cavalry, and seven or eight battalions OF
artillery; 'sstill they come The Governor
has exerted himself to have each arm of the
service accepted, and his eudeavors are like
ly to prove highly successful. All of the re-
giments he has rendered, and that may be
accepted. it is his purpose to encamp and
equip at the earliest practicable period; and
in addition to the strong force to form
part of the grand army under Fremont, Illi-
nois will be creditably represented in that of
the seaboard under Gen. Mcclellan.
