The New York sixteenth regiment arrived
here at noon on Saturday. This regiment is
composed Of the sturdy Mortimer Of st. Law.
renee, Clinton, and Franklin counties. The
yeomen and woodsmen Of these counties are
noted as expert marksmeu, and the man who
does not own rife, and know how to use it,
does not live up there. The men are intelli
gent and in independent circumstances, and do
not 90 to war for $ll month, but for the de-
fence of the threatened national existence. The
officers OF the regiment are worthy Of the men.
Col Thomas A. Davies is a graduate of West
Point and served in the Mexican war, and has
distinguished himself as a man Of GOODNESS and
courage.
Five of the captains of this regiment are over
ak feet tall, and one stands six feet six inches.

of soldiers, and when the sixteenth is heard
from, the highest expectations Of their friends
will be fulfilled.

They bling with them a full set Of camp equip
age, and number OF horses for the field and
staff, The men are armed with the altered flint
