i LUCKY.-Capt. Bayless W. Hanna has
been very fortunate with the military COM
pany he raised here. Having failed to get
into our State organization on account of
the immense rush of volunteers, he made
the proper application and was received into
the second Kentucky regiment, in General
Cate Major) Anderson's Brigade, for three
years. The company is now in Camp Clay,
drilling actively under Lieut.. Qunlin, who,
by the way, is spoken of as a very efficient
officer.
As the standard of Gen. Anderson's brig
ade is 101 men, rank and file, to the com
pany, Capt. Hanna requests US to say that
he can yet receive twenty-five more volun-
teers. Applications should be made to the
Captain this week, at the City Hotel. The
company is to be armed with Enfield rifles.
Capt. H. has brave company, and the COM
pany has brave officers. They will all dis
tinguish themselves when they get the OPP
portunity. A soldier need want no higher
glory than to be under the gallant Ander-
son-the hero of Sumter.

OAMP W ALLANh --SNJ 49,
learn that there is considerable feeling
existing in your city against the officers of
the 18th Regiment, for allowing certain
boats to pass the camp, while others are in
tercepted accusing them of Partially.
am authorized to state, that Col. Wal
lace is acting under special instructions,
which are, to allow the steamers Charley
Bowen, Eugene Grey Eagle and Dunbar to
pass by without examination, but to inter
cept all other boats, and search them. The
reasons for this exemption are sufficient;
among others is the fact that the four boats
named are regular packets in the United
States mail service. The steamboats, Hetty
Gilmore and R. NJ. Patten were stopped
to-day, and their manifests examined by the
officer of the day, Capt. Rugg. The R. NJ.
Patten was evidently a secession boat, con-
sequently it was bitter dose to be COM
PEELED to hoist the q. S. Flag. She was
from the Tennessee River bound to Louis
vile, with a cargo of tobacco and peanuts.
At sunset fiat boat was stopped. She was
loaded with salt only. l understand that
the Excursion party from New burg, which
l announced would arrive here to-day, real
ly visited US yesterday. very large num-
Der was expected, while but few came
which accounts for your correspondent not
being aware of their arrival.
A large Picnic Party visited US yester-
day afternoon, and invited the whole Regi-
ment to the bountiful repast prepared by
! them. The regimental band enlivened the
! occasion with charming music. The Party
/ were about to worship TcrPsichore, bnt
| upon learning that the boat could not wait
| longer for them, and that if they remained
they would be obliged to "trip the light
fantastic toe " for about two miles, they be-
came resigned to this annunciation and
started for the boat accompanied by tie
band.
After escorting the picnic party to the
city, the band together with friends called
upon Major Wood and gave him a farewell
serenade. The Major although holding q
commissioned Office in the regular service,
on account of his personal popularity was
elected Major of the 18th Regiment by ac-
clamation. He accepted hoping that be
would not be called away, till their time OF
service was up, three months. He had Or
ders to come Immediately East, and left this
morning, much to the regret of the Regi-
ment and his numerous friends.
To-day our camp is in mourning COM
memorative of the death of Col. Ellsworth.
"Requescat in pace"
We hope the citizens of Evansville, will
not forget the concert Thursday night. 1t

Pa We see by the Cincinnati Commer-
cial of Saturday, that Ohio has received the
privilege of furnishing t1centy-one regiments
for three years service. Indiana has been
allowed but four. Can our prominent men
account for this? Why is it that Indiana,
with more than half the population Of
Ohio, is permitted to furnish not quite one
fifth as many regiments ? We have large
numbers of men in this State who threw up
good situations because they thought their
country needed their services. They are
now out of employment and are told they
are not needed in the army. Is Ohio the
only State in the northwest that she must
furnish all the troops, and Cincinnati the
only city that we should run there for our
cannon and even for the uniforms for some
of our regiments? 1t may be said that
this State was not prepared to make the
cannon. Grant this to be true, have we no
tailors that could make the uniforms
There is evidently something wrong in the
way things have been managed for which
somebody is to blame. Can our cotempo-
raries at the capital enlighten US on the
subject?
