Gen. pike's Call for Troops.

In another column, will be four4d call from Gen. Pike, upon the patriotic citizens of Arkan' sas. for troops to serve in the Indian country and elsewhere. That this call will be promptly and rallanty responded to, we have no doubt f the volunteers are not interfer:sd with. We hone that Gen. Pike will not te bored with highly indignant letters at his presumption in daring to call for men without first getting permission from, or making his cal through, the commander in chief.
 IL will be seen that the troops will be received by companies and at once mustered into service. This does away with the diiydallying practice of gathering men at certain points, and keeping them there, at & heavy expense, until they elect some selected politicians as oificets. So far as the Military Board is concerned we are satisfied that the advisory members will second this effort of Gen. Pike and do nothing to thwart it or the plans of any Confederate officer. The patriot ism and practical good sense of hose gentlemen have already produced good re esults and the much abused Military Board is fast gaining the confidence and respect of our people.
 It IS almost unnecessary to sa7 word as to Gen. Pike, where he is so well known, loved and admired. Possessed of one of the finest minds in the country, united with untiring en- erey and fine military knowledge, he only wants a eompiand to win honor and distinction for his troops. Hereafter, when the historian sits down to write the events of this war, it may be that one of his brightest chapters will record the achievements of Pikes brigade, and when peace is restored, brave men will say with pride that during this war for freedom they were soldiers under Gen. Pike.
