stand out upon open ground, right ground, and
high ground, from which he can see the end
OF this war,
Let congress give us programme of the
work we have to do, vote the supplies, and
then go home, and each man put his shoulder

Don't be afraid of increasing the exaspera-

You may add if You like to the programme,

leave estates enough for confscation to pay for

WHAT Is SAID OF OUR REGIMENT.

Mr.. John Earle Of Boston, for several
years an army tailor, was here day or
two ago and measured the officers Of the
several companies at Camp Baxter, for
their uniforms, which he has been en-
ployed to make We are informed that
after performing the work of taking the
measures, he remarked in conversation
with the governor, in regard to the size of
the men, that he had made uniforms for
many officers and troops in Massachusetts,,
Maine, New Hampshire and other parts
Of New England, but, said he: IL never
put the tape on to such set of men as
have this afternoon. They really aston
ish me-" And the average size and
weight of the rank and file is as remark
able as that of the officers. Ofthe several
companies, the Essex county company,
Capt. Nelson, is probably entitled to the
first place in respect to weight and size
We are told that seven of them happened
by chance to be weighed yesterday, and
they averaged over one hundred and nine
" pounds. A bayonet will be terrible
weapon in the hand Of such men when
they become skilled in its use. They
might toss a secessionist with it over q
small Westinghouse, without much effort.
