The WAY They GET SoLDrERs.-A person who
came to this city from New York. and was directly
cognizant of the circumstances states that ship
load of German emigrants having arrived, the ship
was boarded off the "Narrows" Of New York har-
Dor by parties who offered the able-boded men and
boys Twenty dollars month, with light and agree
able employment" Near six hundred of the de.
ceived emigrants jumped at the OFFER signed the
agreement, resigned themselves into the hands of
their betrayers, found guard round them when
they were landed constrained to take the oath
of enlistment were thrust into contract coats and
pants, and new Federal regiment at once sprang
into exstence-a proof of the spontaneous patriot
characterizes the loyal and gallant citizens of the
North" Probably many other emigrants have
been entrapped in the same way Numbers of
prisoners have been taken by our forces who could
not speak word of English Mobile Register and
ddrSrtiser.
