Your notice, referring to tie Hoffman Dra-

one particular. You stats that the Dragons
have not received their pay, which il efroze-

Western Virginia are almost beyond belief,
and the Hoffman Dragoont seem to have had
more than their share. take pleasure In

the brave fellows, from our worthy Adjataut
General, that which they could not obtain In
